She is indeed pregnant.

  These things were done by a pregnant woman she paid to have the checkup in her name, even Yan Mu Yao wouldn't be able to find any flaws.

  She raised her head and made a last effort to keep calm as she met his gaze.

  His expression didn't change, but he suddenly narrowed his cold black eyes, without any intention of touching that stack of reports.

  This silent confrontation was enough to exhaust all of Shang's courage.

  In terms of aura, she is probably not even one ten-thousandth of his...

  "If you don't want to see it, then don't look." He said, withdrawing his hand and about to pull it back.

  Ke Nianmu Yao's movements were a step faster, and with a slight inclination of her body, her fingers accurately pinched the woman's pale wrist, increasing the force, leaving no room for struggle.

  He gently pressed his fingers on her wrist, feeling for her pulse with rapt attention.

  It's all over!

  The merchant gave up struggling, with a face full of tears that couldn't be shed.

  This is great, not only do I have to get engaged to that good-for-nothing Ye Nanshan, but also come up with an explanation for the Ye family about why she fabricated her pregnancy.

  "What's with the rapid heartbeat?" A moment later, he released her wrist, speaking as he cast a faintly disdainful glance at her.

  "What about Mu Yao? What was the outcome?" Yan Jin Sheng asked knowingly.

  Gritting his teeth, Shang steeled himself for a confession, "Grandfather, I..."

  "Ah, yes, I'm pregnant." Almost at the same time, his diagnosis was unexpected.

  Huh?

  The plot thickens, and Nian Jinsheng is also shocked.

  However, in medical terms, no one here would question Yan Mu Yao's diagnosis.

  Even merchants can't help but wonder if they really... have it in their belly?

  Nian Mu Yao dropped a sentence of diagnosis and went upstairs without looking back.

  Shang Shang watched as his back disappeared into the corner of the building, feeling a lump in his throat, but still couldn't understand why he wanted to help her. Was it because of that absurd night?

  Zheng Ting's face turned gloomy, "Shang Shang, come with me to the study."

  Study room.

  "Merchant, who is the father of your child?" Yan Jinsheng asked directly.

  The merchant stood in front of the desk, his legs numb with pain, but he couldn't utter a word for half a day. He didn't even have any children, so how did she know who the father was?

  "If you don't say it, I'll have someone investigate."

  "Don't... I'm afraid he'll really find something out," Shang hastily made up a story, "He's my boyfriend."

  He paused for a moment, fearing he wouldn't believe him, and added, "I mentioned it to you before, I'm from the School of Business, my name is Lu Cheng'an."

  She didn't lie about this, Lu Cheng'an is indeed her boyfriend, the two have a stable relationship, but it's clearer than water.

  "Does he know about the child?"

  "Know, know..."

  "What do you plan to do with this child?"

  The lies that Shangshang had told over the past twenty years were probably not as many as today. As he pondered how to answer this question, Yan Jin's brow furrowed and he spoke up first, "Find a time, I'll personally talk to him. If he's worth you giving up on Western customs, Grandfather can support any decision you make."

  "Grandpa..."

  "Alright, it's settled then." Nian Jinsheng had always been decisive.

  Finally, she let out a sigh and said, "Go find Mu Yao to take a look at you. After kneeling for so long, see if it has any effect on the child."

  It's pointless to say more. The things that have been decided won't change easily, and time will only make them clearer with each passing day. There's no need to rush at the moment. Shang understood this principle and turned around to leave without lingering.
