Surprise! I'm pregnant with a rich heir

Chapter 44 No Girlfriend, But a Wife

Shen Lanxi raised her head to meet his gaze and greeted him with a smile: "Ling Xiao, are you here to see Xuan Yao?"

"Yes, are you here to work at Huiheng?" Ling Xiao asked.

Shen Lanxi nodded and said, "I am Xuanyao's secretary now. He is in the office. I will take you there."

After saying that, he walked straight forward without waiting for Ling Xiao to refuse. Ling Xiao really wanted to say that he had been there before and knew where the office was.

"Mr. Xi, Ling Xiao is here to see you," Shen Lanxi said as she knocked on the door.

"Come in" a cold voice came from the room.

After Ling Xiao entered, he lay down on the sofa chair opposite Xi Xuanyao, "This sofa is nice."

"Why do you suddenly have the time to come to Huiheng?" Xi Xuanyao walked up to him leisurely and asked.

Ling Xiao took off his gold-rimmed glasses and threw them aside, closing his eyes and saying, "I was on duty last night and just came back from the hospital. If I had known earlier, I would have gone to your hospital and it wouldn't be so busy."

"It's not too late now," Xi Xuanyao quipped, crossing his arms.

Ling Xiao was speechless for a moment. He just complained casually. Is it necessary to be so serious? He changed the subject and said, "Let's get together tonight. We haven't gotten together for a long time." This was the reason why he came here, otherwise he would have gone back to sleep.

At this time, Shen Lanxi came over with two cups of coffee. When she heard this, her eyes flashed and she gently placed the coffee on the table.

When I walked out the door, I heard Xi Xuanyao say "OK", and the corners of my mouth couldn't help but rise.

Ching Nian Hua Club

Under the dim light, Zhou Qijia, Chu Mu and Chen Ziming sat on the sofa and chatted. Xi Xuanyao had just arrived and was seen by the sharp-eyed Zhou Qijia. He raised his glass and said, "Have a glass as a punishment, be more self-disciplined."

Xi Xuanyao drank a cup silently, which made Zhou Qijia cheer. He chose a seat and sat down, loosening his tie, and said, "Why hasn't Ling Xiao arrived yet?"

Speak of the devil and he shall appear. As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Xiao pushed open the door and there was someone behind him. It was Shen Lanxi. She greeted everyone openly. The people present had different expressions and they all glanced at Xi Xuanyao at the same time.

Xi Xuanyao glanced at Ling Xiao lightly, and he blinked innocently, as if to say, it wasn't me who asked her to come.

"You don't mind me coming uninvited, do you?" Shen Lanxi said jokingly.

Seeing that no one said anything, Ling Xiao tried to smooth things over by saying, "No problem, no problem. When did you return home?"

Shen Lanxi sat down on the sofa opposite Xi Xuanyao and said, "It's been a while since I returned to China. Long time no see. How are you guys doing in China?"

"Well, just go to work," Ling Xiao replied casually.

Chen Ziming was whispering something to Xi Xuanyao. His brows softened for a moment. Zhou Qijia suddenly said, "Xuanyao, how is your sister-in-law doing lately?"

The air suddenly became quiet. Shen Lanxi looked at Xi Xuanyao fiercely, leaning forward, her fingers tightly pinching the corner of her clothes, revealing her nervousness and uneasiness.

"I'm fine. I can eat and sleep." A hint of tenderness flashed across Xi Xuanyao's eyes, which was caught by Shen Lanxi who had been staring at him. Her heart suddenly felt like it fell into an ice cellar.

Trying his best to control the trembling of his voice, he asked with difficulty, "Do you have a girlfriend?" Was the ring a gift from your girlfriend? Impossible.

Xi Xuanyao glanced at her and said, "No girlfriend, only wife"

This sentence made Shen Lanxi fall into hell. She looked at Xi Xuanyao expectantly and said with a forced smile, "This joke is not funny at all."

There has never been a woman around him, the only exception was his sister, but she is dead. Shen Lanxi always thought that he would never accept another woman. She was patient enough to make Xuan Yao accept herself and was prepared for a long battle.

But she couldn't accept the fact that Xi Xuanyao was married. She said word by word, "I don't believe a word of it. Aunt Han told me several times that you don't have a girlfriend. How could you get married?"

"Do I need to explain my affairs to others? My mother can't control who I marry," Xi Xuanyao said lightly.

Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment, and no one spoke. Chu Mu had no choice but to speak up: "Lanxi, this Xuanyao is indeed married. He didn't lie to you, and he doesn't bother to lie to you."

"How long are you going to keep deceiving yourself?" Zhou Qijia said angrily. She should give up now.

Shen Lanxi could no longer maintain her usual elegance and grace, and cried out loudly, "Don't bother me!"

The scene suddenly became awkward. Xi Xuanyao stood up and said, "I have something else to do. I'll go back first. You guys can chat slowly."

Ling Xiao said quickly: "Let's go together, I remembered that I haven't revised the thesis yet."

Chu Mu and Chen Ziming followed and left, leaving only Shen Lanxi and Zhou Qijiajia in the box.

Zhou Qijia held a cigarette to his lips and almost lit it with a lighter, but thinking that Shen Lanxi didn't like the smell of cigarettes, he finally just held it in his mouth without lighting it.

"Is it time to give up now?" Zhou Qijia said calmly.

Shen Lanxi sneered: "Why should I give up? You said this on purpose for me to hear. I don't believe a word you say."

"Yes, I did it on purpose. You have come to me many times, and I have told you many times that Xuan Yao doesn't like you and is already taken. You always thought I was bluffing. Now he has admitted it himself, and the ring is still warm, and you still don't believe it?" Zhou Qijia admitted that he arranged today's party on purpose to make Shen Lanxi give up.

Shen Lanxi wanted to raise a smile, but ended up pulling her lips stiffly, "He hasn't had a girlfriend for so many years, and he wants to get married just like that? The Xi family didn't make it public, and they didn't even have a wedding, so why should I believe it?"

Zhou Qijia had never seen such a stubborn person before. He couldn't help but curse, twisted off the cigarette and threw it away, mockingly saying, "Okay, if you want to be a jerk, go ahead."

As if stimulated by this sentence, Shen Lanxi choked and said, "Aren't you the same?"

Zhou Qijia lowered his eyes, exuding loneliness, and said: "Yes, but this is the last time, and I am different from you."

Shen Lanxi opened her mouth and wanted to apologize, but she was so proud that she couldn't lower her head.

"Let's go, I'll take you back," Zhou Qijia said.

The two walked out of the box side by side. On the way, people who knew Zhou Qijia kept greeting him. A hot beauty even came up to him, behaved intimately, and said in a coquettish tone: "Mr. Zhou hasn't looked for me for so long, it turns out you have a new love." When she said this, she glanced at Shen Lanxi, as if to say that it turned out that Mr. Zhou liked this style recently.

Zhou Qijia curled the corners of his lips, lifted the woman's chin, and said, "Isn't your new love right in front of you? See you tomorrow."

Shen Lanxi watched from the side with a frown on her face. She didn't bother to talk nonsense and just turned around and left. It wasn't like she wouldn't go home.

"Mr. Zhou, she's gone."

Zhou Qijia joked for a while, then strode to catch up with Shen Lanxi, "My car is over there."

"No, I can go back by myself. I see you are very busy," Shen Lanxi refused coldly.

Zhou Qijia teased nonchalantly: "What? Are you jealous?"

"Are you crazy or am I crazy? I'm jealous of you and I think you're dirty," Shen Lanxi said disdainfully.

The dirty word instantly made Zhou Qijia stand up with thorns all over his body. He sneered and said, "I may be dirty, but at least I have a clear mind and know what I can and cannot ask for."

Seeing Shen Lanxi walking forward, he grabbed her wrist and took her back to his car.

"What are you doing? Let me go!" Shen Lanxi struggled.
