Contract Bride, the power game of misplaced love

Seeing this, Jiang Zhiyan quickly threw the bowl and chopsticks aside and was about to help Xiao Jianye, but was stopped by Li Xirui:

"Jiang Zhiyan, what are you doing?"

Jiang Zhiyan was slightly startled, but still forced a smile and said, "Then I'll eat first, Mom."

Li Xirui glanced at her and said awkwardly: "This is a chess game between Yuheng and Grandpa, you'd better not interfere."

Jiang Zhiyan had already reached the door and could only respond, "Oh."

At this moment, she was restless and didn't know what to do. At this moment, Xiao Yuwan said:

"Mom, you are too harsh on your wife, aren't you? If my future mother-in-law treated me like this, I would definitely smash her with a dinner plate."

When Li Xirui saw Xiao Jianye and his mother, she wanted to take the opportunity to teach her a lesson, but she didn't expect her own daughter to confront her. She rolled her eyes:

"Yu Wan, you know nothing! You are not a child anymore, you should respect your elders."

"Tsk, mom, if you want to respect me, you have to see if it's worth it. I can't satisfy a stingy person like you."

Jiang Zhiyan was delighted. Finally, there was someone who stood up for her. He was usually so generous to Xiao Yuwan. Now it seemed that her investment was very effective.

Xiao Yuheng was playing chess with his grandfather in the courtyard. In the middle of the Xiao family courtyard, there was an elaborately decorated pavilion, which provided a cool and pleasant shade.

The servants brought up some snacks and fruits. An old man and a young boy were playing chess intently in the pavilion. They could hear a fly flying around.

Under the light, Xiao Jianye's temples were already gray. Although he looked energetic, he looked much older.

Xiao Yuheng held a chess piece in his hand, but it took a long time to drop it.

Xiao Jianye looked at him puzzledly: "Yuheng, what's wrong?"

"Grandpa, I'm thinking about life."

Xiao Jianye picked up the teacup and took a sip. He leaned back in his chair, looked up at the starry sky, and said thoughtfully, "What did you mean just now?"

Xiao Yuheng pondered for a moment and said:

“Life is like a game. There is never a rehearsal. I think this is the real life.”

Xiao Jianye shook his head repeatedly to express his objection: "No, life is over and over again, generation after generation, never stopping."

Jiang Zhiyan wanted to say something and leave, but thinking of Li Xirui's stubborn personality, she could only sit there obediently.

At this moment, Xiao Yuwan suddenly pushed her mother:

"Mom, why are you here? Go out and play cards first. I'll talk to her."

Li Xirui originally intended to teach Jiang Zhiyan a lesson, but after hearing what she said, she suddenly became unhappy:

"Yu Wan is really going too far."

Jiang Zhiyan was delighted and showed a bright smile on her face: "Yuwan, don't argue with me."

Li Xirui didn't have any good feelings towards Jiang Zhiyan. Seeing that her husband and son were gone and her daughter was still standing on Jiang Zhiyan's side, she couldn't stay any longer and turned around and left.

The hall suddenly became empty, with only the two of them.

Xiao Yuwan thought for a moment and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you really unable to get pregnant?"

"This……"

"Sister-in-law, are you embarrassed to say it? Or is it that my brother is not good enough?"

An unnatural look flashed across Jiang Zhiyan's face. She took out a small box from her bag and handed it to Xiao Yuwan:

"By the way, I have another gift here, please don't despise it."

Xiao Yuwan was still asking questions before, but now when she saw these things, she immediately smiled happily.

However, at this moment, Jiang Zhiyan's phone suddenly rang. She took out her phone and saw that it was Jiang Shurui. She immediately stood up and said to Xiao Yuwan:

"Go on, I have something to take care of."

Xiao Yuwan's eyes were completely focused on a pink diamond, without even glancing at it, "Go!"

It wasn't until Jiang Zhiyan left with her phone that Xiao Yuwan came back to her senses. "If you have anything to say, can't you just tell me directly?"

Jiang Zhiyan's bag was placed next to her bed without being opened.

When Xiao Yuwan saw this scene, she couldn't help but walk over. After taking a closer look, she was shocked.

Jiang Zhiyan is pregnant but refuses to make it public. No wonder their relationship is so strained. She might want to abort the child. So, she took out her own medical record.

Xiao Yuwan waited for a long time, but Jiang Zhiyan didn't show up. Feeling a little bored, she returned to her own courtyard.

She saw him playing chess with her grandfather in the distance, hesitated for a moment, and then followed him up.

Both of them were concentrating on playing chess and didn't notice anything happening around them.

After a long while, Xiao Yuwan coughed lightly and said with a smile, "Can you two stop for a moment?"

Xiao Jianye raised his head and saw his granddaughter smiling. Xiao Jianye was also affected by her smile and smiled as well:

"Where's Yu Wan? Any good news?"

Xiao Yuwan did not hide her joy. When she heard her mother say that she could not have children at the dinner table, she felt very sad, but now, she could easily express her thoughts.

"Brother, do you know that I, Xiaomian, am pregnant?" Xiao Yuwan leaned close to Xiao Yuheng's ear and asked word by word.

Xiao Yuheng's fingers holding the chessboard trembled slightly, and he suddenly jumped down from his seat, and asked in shock: "What did you say?"

Xiao Yuwan couldn't believe her ears. She could tell that Xiao Yuheng was not happy about this matter. Instead, he looked surprised, which made her very unhappy:

"Brother, what are you talking about? Didn't you hear me? If you ask me, you should be nicer to her. If you kill her, our Xiao family will be left without an heir."

Xiao Yuheng realized that he was feeling a little down, and quickly whispered, "I understand, don't worry, I will take good care of her."

Xiao Jianye usually has poor hearing, so when Xiao Yuwan said that his wife was pregnant, he naturally heard every word. He immediately smiled and his face became wrinkled.

Tonight is a special night for him. He lies on the back of the chair with a sweet smile on his face.

Xiao Yuheng was about to speak, but his half-open lips stopped at this moment because he heard a sound outside the door.

A moment later, Jiang Zhiyan rushed back in a panic. After hanging up the phone, she realized that she had forgotten to close her backpack when she left. Could it be that Xiao Yuwan saw her physical examination results?

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiyan became even more panicked. She looked up and found that the three people were looking at her. She felt very uncomfortable.

Xiao Jianye waved at her and said with a smile: "Zhi Yan, come on, what are you doing standing here?"
