Zu Qi spent the whole afternoon lying by the pool.

Although it is not yet the beginning of autumn, and the weather is not as cool as in autumn, the shadows of the trees in this small garden are full of shadows, and the sunlight penetrates the dense branches and leaves and sprinkles mottled light spots on the gravel path. It feels a bit like enjoying the coolness in the mountain forest .

Zu Qi tilted his head, and didn't know how long he had slept in a daze, when he was suddenly awakened by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

He opened his eyes suddenly, and his first reaction was to touch his stomach, but he felt a thin blanket on his stomach, which should have been covered by housekeeper Zhang when he fell asleep.

Soon Zu Qi was attracted by the spicy aroma floating in the air. He turned his head and saw that the maids were busy in front of the grill.

"Ma'am, you're awake." Xiaoya ran over with a plate in her hands, and said with bright eyes, "We prepared some first, to pad your stomach, and put less chili, would you like to try it?"

Zu Qi looked at the grilled meat mixed with chopped green onion and various seasonings on the dinner plate, and the aroma hit his face, and he swallowed subconsciously.

He took a skewer of roast beef, took a bite, and immediately beamed with joy.

"Is it delicious?" Xiaoya asked with some credit.

"It's delicious!" Zu Qi's eyes showed surprise. God knows how much he misses these heavy-tasting foods. These days, he is almost driven crazy by stewed chicken soup and duck soup.

Zu Qi immediately waved his hand and said, "Bake me a few more chicken legs, and sprinkle more scallions on top."

Xiaoya took the order, put down the plate and ran away.

Not long after, Xiaoya ran over with another plate, which contained four golden-brown and crispy chicken legs, and the surface soaked in oil was scratched a few times in a cross shape, and the aroma was almost overflowing. The yard is all.

Zu Qi held a chicken drumstick in each hand and ate happily, and at the same time, he did not forget to order from Xiaoya.

Zu Qi, who was immersed in the delicious food, didn't notice the changes in the surrounding environment. When he realized it later, Xiaoya and the maids who were busy in front of the grill stopped at some point.

The vegetables on the grill were still sizzling, and the aroma came wave after wave.

"What are you standing there for? Don't burn it." Zu Qi said vaguely, chewing on the chicken leg.

Xiaoya bit her lip timidly, not daring to speak, her head was almost buried in her chest, and the appearance of the others was not much better.

Zu Qi realized that something was wrong, and before he could make a sound, he suddenly heard a deep and cold voice from behind: "Who allowed you to do this? Hurry up and take away the things in his hands!"

This sentence was like a cannonball exploding among the maids, and the maids all had terrified expressions on their faces, rushing towards Zu Qi like a tide.

When the maids dispersed, the two chicken legs in Zu Qi's hand were gone, and even the two dinner plates on the small table were taken away.

Zu Qi blinked blankly, and for a moment he was stupefied, and he hurriedly turned his head to look at the source of the sound——

The sky at dusk was filled with a large cloud of fire, that tall figure stood with his back to the sunset glow, his whole body was covered with a halo of indistinct light, he had a pair of dark and unfathomable eyes like the night, a straight nose bridge, and a slender face. Under the light, her thin lips were pale pink like cherry blossom petals.

Xue Jue.

Even if he hadn't seen Xue Jue himself, Zu Qi guessed his identity immediately.

He really came...

It's still so fast, I'm afraid they came here in a hurry as soon as they got off the plane.

There was no expression on Xue Jue's stern face. He stared at Zu Qi lightly, as if looking at an inanimate object.

Zu Qi bent his lips: "Long time no see, busy man, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to see me."

Xue Jue ignored Zu Qi's sarcasm, but turned around and called Butler Zhang. Butler Zhang, who stood behind without saying a word, immediately understood, and left quickly with a group of maids and bodyguards.

In the blink of an eye, only Zu Qi and Xue Jue were left in this place.

The sounds of insects all around were intertwined, and the night wind was blowing coolly on Zu Qi's skin. Zu Qi couldn't help shivering. He quickly wiped the oil on his palm with a paper towel, and then pulled the thin blanket beside him to wrap around his body.

Looking up again, Xue Jue had quietly walked in front of him.

"There is a limit to being unreasonable. I don't have that much time to play hide-and-seek with you." Xue Jue looked down at Zu Qi, his eyes covered with a layer of cold frost.

Zu Qi looked back at Xue Jue without fear, and smiled calmly with the corners of his mouth pulled: "I don't have the patience to play such childish tricks with you. In fact, I bothered to let you come because I have something to do with you." discuss."

Xue Jue's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't speak.

"Let's break up." Zu Qi said calmly, as if describing an unimportant matter, "Since there is no relationship between us, why don't we get together and break up, and reduce the harm to each other this morning."

Hearing this, Xue Jue snorted as if he heard some joke.

He still didn't move, but his cold eyes wanted to see through Zu Qi's soul.

Zu Qi paused for two seconds. Seeing that the other party's reaction was flat, he tapped his swollen belly with his index finger, half joking and half threatening: "But I already have your child in my belly, you can't let it go. We, father and son, will live and sleep in the open in the future? Just give me 1000 million directly, and I promise to take the child and disappear without a trace, and I will never set foot in your life again."

Now Xue Jue froze immediately, he looked Zu Qi up and down with an almost unfamiliar gaze, and suddenly let out a deep laugh.

"So you just want to discuss this with me?"

"Otherwise, what else can there be?" Zu Qi got goosebumps all over his body from Xue Jue's laughter, and shrank his neck inexplicably a little timidly. After thinking about it, he decided to take a step back, "For the sake of the child, I can give it to you." 90% off, just give me [-] million."

"...I really thank you." Xue Jue squeezed out a sentence through the gap between his teeth, "But it's a pity, I don't have the idea of ​​breaking up for the time being, and you don't even want to think about it."

"..." What the hell? !

Zu Qi opened his eyes in surprise, thinking that Xue Jue's reaction was wrong. According to the character design of the novel, shouldn't he happily agree to his request? !

"Wait..." Zu Qi hurriedly said.

Xue Jue didn't intend to get entangled in this matter, turned around and said to the remaining two bodyguards who were not far away, "Help him in, and find someone to put the bath water away."

So Zu Qi was inexplicably carried into the room by two bodyguards, and inexplicably led into the bathroom.

After watching Xiaoya and a maid come in and put the hot water on, Zu Qi suddenly realized - isn't he talking about breaking up with Xue Jue?Why are you forced to take a shower after a disagreement? !

Zu Qi cursed secretly, picked up Xiaoya's thin coat that was on the shelf and draped it over her body, and then walked out aggressively. As soon as she opened the bathroom door, she saw a pair of long straight legs standing outside the door.

Zu Qi's downcast gaze slowly climbed up those legs, and finally settled on Xue Jue's indifferent face.

"You smell of oily smoke all over your body, come out after taking a shower." Xue Jue said and stuffed a bunch of things into Zu Qi's arms.

Zu Qi took a closer look and saw that it was the pajamas and nightgown that he asked Xiaoya to pack in the suitcase.

But the point is not this...

"Xue Jue." Zu Qi straightened his attitude and said in a very serious tone, "I'm not losing my temper, and I'm not trying to threaten you. I really want to break up with you."

Xue Jue showed a smile that was not a smile, and there was a faint sarcasm in his eyes: "At the beginning you sharpened your head and squeezed into the door of my Xue family, and now you want to slap your ass and leave. Have you ever weighed your worth? Not worth 1000 million?"

Zu Qi was stunned: "I can give you a [-]% discount..."

"I won't give you a penny." Xue Jue suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch Zu Qi's chin. He didn't use any strength in his hand, but Zu Qi couldn't breathe due to the air of superiority.

Zu Qi was forced to look up into Xue Jue's eyes. He found that Xue Jue's eyes were very beautiful, like obsidian, beautiful and dazzling with a cold luster.

"As long as you give birth to the child with peace of mind, and when the child grows up and inherits the Xue family, half of the property of the Xue family will belong to you."

Xue Jue's deep voice seemed to be entwined with a trace of charm, his eyes were half closed, his eyes were extraordinarily clear, and there was a hint of sarcasm, "Isn't this the fame, fortune and wealth you want? I can give it to you." You, the premise is that you can fulfill my request."

Zu Qi stared blankly at Xue Jue, and was speechless for a while by Xue Jue's words.

It's because he thinks the problem is too simple...

Now that Xue Jue has not fallen in love with the heroine at first sight, no matter how bad he is, he will not let the blood of the Xue family fall outside.

What's more, people outside have heard more or less about Xue Jue having a fiancée. If he left when he was more than six months pregnant, once those people found out, they would only spread unfavorable remarks about Xue Jue and the Xue family.

Thinking of these, Zu Qi inevitably felt frustrated.

Xue Jue glanced at Zu Qi who suddenly answered like a deflated balloon, slowly let go of the hand pinching his chin, and then ordered Butler Zhang who was standing by to act as a transparent person.

"Help him take a bath, be careful."

"Okay, sir." Steward Zhang brushed his body slightly, stepped forward to take the clothes from Zu Qi's hand, and squeezed into the bathroom sideways.

Zu Qi thought about it a lot, and finally gave up communicating with Xue Jue temporarily.

He squinted at Butler Zhang who was already waiting in the bathroom, and after half a second of hesitation, he swung his hands and slammed the bathroom door shut in front of Xue Jue.

Make you babble!

I'll shut you up!

After Zu Qi thought about it viciously, he suddenly heard a jingle.

He looked down, and there was actually an emerald green gemstone lying at his feet, emitting a strange luster under the warm orange light.

Zu Qi suddenly felt that the gem was a bit familiar, as if it was one of the original owner's belongings, but he put all those items in Xue's house and did not bring them out.

How could it be here?

As Zu Qi thought about it, he bent down with great difficulty and reached out to pick up the gem. His pregnant body was so heavy that he tried twice before picking up the gem.

The moment he stood up straight, everything around him changed at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just five seconds, the original bathroom disappeared and was replaced by a lush green grass...
