Chapter 346: The Gu Family's Pampering of Jiang Sui
Jiang Qianhui neatly put away the ultrasound report, afraid that Zhan Yanxun would take another look at the baby.
As she collected the orders, she said sarcastically, "President Zhan, don't make things up without evidence. I never do dirty or despicable things unless... the person I'm dealing with is a dirty or despicable person!"
Zhan Yanxun's face darkened. Wasn't this a blatant insult directed at him?
“I know you want the Hawke Casper family to cancel their cooperation with the Zhan Group, but you’re overthinking it. The cooperation between the Hawke Casper family and the Zhan Group will not be canceled, and the board of directors cannot remove me from the position of president. Your hopes are dashed.”
Zhan Yanxun anticipated Jiang Qianhui's thoughts, but Jiang Qianhui remained calm and said, "The first cooperative project fell through, and we even bought that land at twenty times the market price. With a decision-maker like you, do you really think the head of the Hawke's Casper family would consider you a good partner?"
Zhan Yanxun remained silent, while Jiang Qianhui smiled coldly and continued, "Whether there is an ancient tomb underground is unpredictable, but buying this land at a high price is enough to prove your incompetence. The head of the Hawke's Casper family would not cooperate with someone who is incompetent. President Zhan, you can't be too optimistic."
"Although you didn't ruin my cooperation with the Hawke Casper family this time, you did severely damage the Zhan Group's finances. Your plan was quite good, but it didn't hit the Zhan Group's core. Please try harder next time."
He's making her try to bring him down; how arrogant of him!
But why was he so confident that the Hawke Casper family wouldn't cancel their cooperation with him? She always felt that there was something about him that she didn't know.
Zhan Yanxun looked at Jiang Qianhui's belly and said, "This child is most likely mentally challenged. You should abort it! If you can't bring yourself to do it, I'll help you."
The harmonious scene between Gu Xunjing and Jiang Qianhui just now deeply stung Zhan Yanxun.
He couldn't even imagine what the child would look like after it was born, and he absolutely wouldn't allow that to happen.
When Jiang Qianhui saw Zhan Yanxun's cold eyes, if she had ever wavered and wanted to abort the child in order to break off all ties with Zhan Yanxun, then at this moment she was absolutely determined to keep the child, because Zhan Yanxun didn't want the child!
Jiang Qianhui reached out and grabbed Zhan Yanxun's shirt, saying fiercely, "If you dare to touch my child, I will make sure you die a horrible death."
Even if I don't touch this child, will your hatred for me lessen?
Upon hearing this, Jiang Qianhui suddenly released her grip, then a cold smile appeared on her lips as she said, "You're right. Even if you hadn't harmed the child in my womb, I would still be your sworn enemy for life, until death do us part."
In her previous life, she and he were sworn enemies, simply because she was resentful that the person she had loved for so long had been taken away by someone who was inferior to her in every way.
In this life, she and he are locked in a life-or-death struggle, simply to settle scores.
Zhan Yanxun stood up and said, "Very well, then we shall fight to the death from this day forward."
After Zhan Yanxun finished speaking, he left. It turned out that watching Zhan Yanxun's departing figure, it was destined that one of them would be hurt.
At this moment, Gu Xunjing walked over. He saw that Jiang Qianhui looked unwell and said, "Suihui, what's wrong? You look like you're not feeling well."
"It's nothing, I'm just a little hungry. I've been feeling hungry more often lately."
"Then I'll take you to get something to eat now. Looks like there's a little foodie in your belly."
Gu Xunjing squatted down and said to Jiang Qianhui's belly, "Baby, Daddy will take you to eat something now, but you can't torture your mommy, okay?"
Gu Xunjing placed his hand on Jiang Qianhui's belly and suddenly felt the baby move. He couldn't tell if it was the baby's hand or little foot that touched his palm.
Gu Xunjing said, shocked and excited, "Sui Sui, the baby gave me a high five. Does that mean he agrees?"
Jiang Qianhui also felt the fetal movement, a magical feeling that she couldn't quite describe.
Gu Xunjing's smile widened. He helped Jiang Qianhui up and said, "Let's go eat. We can't break our promise to the little foodie."
Gu Xunjing took Jiang Qianhui's hand and left the hospital, unaware that someone was looking at him with intense eyes.
Su Mengyu watched Gu Xunjing's excited expression as he touched Jiang Qianhui's belly, his face beaming with the excitement of becoming a father. They looked so happy.
After the child is born, the family of three will be even happier.
Thinking of this, Su Mengyu felt as if her heart was being stabbed, because she had fantasized about this scene countless times.
She fantasized about wearing a pure white wedding dress and marrying Xun Jing, and about the child she was pregnant with, with Xun Jing taking great care of her. But now all of that has been shattered, all because Jiang Qianhui's appearance stole everything from her.
Without children, they cannot be a family of three.
……
Gu Xunjing also wanted to take Jiang Qianhui to a restaurant for dinner, but his mother called.
"Has Sui Sui finished her checkup? Are you hungry? I bought a two-meter-long Xunlong fish to make jade dragon tendons. Do you want to come back to eat it, or should I bring it to you?"
"Let's go back."
"Okay, you can eat when you get back."
Jiang Qianhui heard Gu Xunjing's Bluetooth connection; Li Wanyin had bought a two-meter-long fish, which was quite a hassle.
After all, Li Wanyin prepared all the dishes for her herself, from processing and cleaning the ingredients to cooking them.
Since she became pregnant, Li Wanyin has often gone to great lengths to cook delicious meals for her. She would buy eighteen kinds of meat and stew them for a whole day, just to make her a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
She said she wanted to eat shrimp chips, so she would make shrimp chips for her using king crab shrimp.
Looking back now, I guess the baby in my belly making a peace sign for life was because Aunt Li made so many delicious things for her, and the baby enjoyed eating them so much.
……
Gu family
As soon as Jiang Qianhui entered, she saw a two-meter-long fish lying on the Gu family's kitchen table.
"Sui Sui, I just removed the dragon tendon from this fish and made it into jade dragon tendon. Try it first. I'll process the fish now and make you something delicious."
Li Wanyin brought over the jade dragon tendon to Jiang Qianhui.
"It smells so good!"
Gu Xunjing was about to take a bite when Li Wanyin slapped him.
"What are you eating? This is something I made especially for Sui Sui, you know? I bought a two-meter-long fish just for this one tendon, not for you."
Gu Xunjing just thought it smelled so good that he wanted to try it, but he didn't expect to be hit by his mother.
"Mom, you bought this two-meter-long fish just to extract its tendons?" Gu Xunjing asked, somewhat surprised, but then said seriously, "Let's give it to Sui Sui and the baby."
"Since you're so sensible, I'll give this dragon tendon to Sui Sui. I'll make you some stir-fried dragon robe later."
Upon hearing this, Gu Xunjing thought that although he hadn't gotten to eat the dragon tendon, he did get to eat the stir-fried dragon robe, which sounded pretty good.
But when the stir-fried dragon robe was served, he was instantly dumbfounded. It turned out that the stir-fried dragon robe was just... stir-fried fish skin.
"Mom, the 'stir-fried dragon robe' you mentioned is just stir-fried fish skin?"
