Tang Xi listened to his icy words, trembling all over.
He really was going to make her abort the child!
No, this can’t happen!
This child was hers, nobody had the right to take it away from her; in an instant, her struggle became even more fierce.
Seeing Tang Xi’s desperate resistance, Fu Tingzhou was enraged. Thinking about how she got together with Xu Yiran and was even pregnant drove his fury beyond control. He forcibly dragged Tang Xi forward, intending to take her to the OB-GYN and terminate the pregnancy.
Tang Xi couldn’t resist, when at that moment Ruan Youqing came running to her rescue.
Ruan Youqing stood in front of her, staring straight at Fu Tingzhou, "What are you trying to do! You and Xiao Xi have already divorced; her future has nothing to do with you!"
The veins on Fu Tingzhou’s forehead throbbed fiercely, "Step aside, if you still want to work here, then get lost!"
Ruan Youqing knew the man before her was of high status, and that offending him could cost her the job with nothing more than a word from him, but she couldn’t just watch this man bully Xiao Xi.
But Tang Xi didn’t want to drag Ruan Youqing into this mess, she reached out and gently tugged at the hem of Ruan Youqing’s clothes, "Youqing..."
Ruan Youqing held Tang Xi’s hand, "Tang Xi, don’t be afraid, I’m here."
Even at the risk of losing her job, she wasn’t scared; she wouldn’t leave Tang Xi alone here.
A warm surge filled Tang Xi’s chest, the more so because she couldn’t allow Ruan Youqing to be implicated. She took a deep breath, suppressing her fear, and said hoarsely, "Fu Tingzhou, we are already divorced. Who I am with has nothing to do with you; you have your life, and I have mine now."
Ruan Youqing said, "That’s right, she is your ex-wife now. You two have nothing to do with each other anymore, what right do you have to make demands of her?"
Ex-wife, one’s own life, nothing to do with it, these words added up repeatedly.
In the angle that Tang Xi could not see when she looked down, she missed how pale Fu Tingzhou’s face turned.
He was stunned for two seconds.
In those two seconds, Ruan Youqing whisked Tang Xi away.
Watching Tang Xi walk away, Fu Tingzhou thought of her bearing Xu Yiran’s child, that protruding belly made his fists clench tightly, and his arms trembled from the force.
At this time, the drama in the hospital’s lobby was far from over.
Li Sumei continued to lie on the ground wailing like a fishwife, cursing Ruan Youqing as a vixen who seduced her son, a fraudster out for money.
Until Zhao Yixing came and helped Li Sumei to her feet.
Seeing her son arrive, Li Sumei quickly behaved as though having strong backup, "Yixing ah, that Ruan Youqing is so shameless; it’s good that you broke up with such a woman, but she swindled over 200,000 from you, this... you must, you must get it back ah."
The onlookers who had come for the drama hadn’t dispersed, gathering around in a crowd.
Zhao Yixing’s face was grim, "Mom, who let you come here? Let’s go back quickly."
Too many people were gathered around watching the spectacle, all with phones out filming; Zhao Yixing couldn’t afford to lose face, and hurriedly left with Li Sumei.
On the way, Zhao Yixing complained about Li Sumei’s behavior, "Mom, who let you come here? Do you know I’ve just started going out with Lin Quan, and his father hasn’t fully agreed to our relationship yet? I’ve just submitted my resume and haven’t gained a firm foothold in Hanhai yet, and you’re always troubling Ruan Youqing. It’s only 200,000, right? After I marry Lin Quan, her dad’s a CEO; later on, how many times 200,000 do you think I will want for anything?"
Li Sumei, "Son, that Ruan Youqing is too scheming, and her friend, they’re not good people either. Luckily you broke up with her in time. That sort of woman has no future; she willingly spent money on you and now... after breaking up still wants to reclaim it; how can that compare to Lin Quan? Definitely not. Lin Quan is a true lady of wealth, Ruan Youqing can’t even compare to a hair on Lin Quan’s head. My son is excellent; even a lady like Lin Quan fancies you..."
Zhao Yixing, anticipating his upcoming meeting with Lin Quan’s parents, felt a moment of pride; the frustrations of his past life seemed about to disappear.
"Mom, as you know, Lin Quan’s family operates a company with an annual profit of tens of millions. Although our family background is average, Lin Quan has fallen for me. Such a woman is easy to handle, but don’t embarrass me; we might come from humble beginnings, but we still have our integrity. It was Lin Quan who pursued me when we were abroad, which fully shows how outstanding your son is."
