In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband

Moments later, Zhou Linsen turned and left the restaurant.

Xu Jinzhi and Song You also went to sit down at the spot they had previously reserved, and only then did the restaurant return to normal.

As soon as Xu Jinzhi and Song You sat down, Song You frowned and said, "Don’t do that next time. What if the other party is completely unreasonable and starts hitting you?"

Xu Jinzhi scoffed, "You think I’m you? I told you to learn taekwondo with me back then, but you insisted on learning ballet. Look now; you can’t even handle such trash."

Song You wanted to object, her wanting to learn ballet wasn’t her own choice, after all.

It was clearly something the Song Family insisted on.

"Alright, just stop dragging your feet. If he comes looking for you again, give him a direct response." Xu Jinzhi had no patience, especially for someone like Zhou Linsen.

Song You’s expression darkened, "He met with Song Jian at some point before, and Song Jian was very pleased with him."

The Song Jian in Song You’s mouth was her adulterous father.

"He’s still causing trouble now?" Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but sneer, even though the other party was an elder, Xu Jinzhi had never respected such men.

Song You didn’t speak, which was as good as an agreement.

Xu Jinzhi didn’t know what else to say, the affairs of the Song Family had always been a mess.

"Okay, okay, let’s not talk about them anymore. Let’s just eat," Song You quickly skipped the topic, not wanting to discuss such unhappy things with Xu Jinzhi during their meeting.

Xu Jinzhi didn’t pursue the matter further and switched to talking about Lin Chu while they ate.

Song You couldn’t help but admire, "Uncle is really amazing."

Thinking of her own father’s shady dealings, Xu Jinzhi also couldn’t help feeling speechless, thinking that Xu Zhen must really be too bored and too good at dealing with such matters.

"Let me know as soon as there’s news, I want to be on the front line for this drama!" Song You said earnestly.

Xu Jinzhi slightly arched her eyebrows, giving Song You a "no problem" look.

By the time the two finished their meal, it was already late. Song You drove herself home, while Xu Jinzhi drove towards University A, preparing to pick up Xie Yanchuan and head back together.

When she arrived at the school gate, Xie Yanchuan was already there, waiting. The dim yellow light still illuminated the gate area, and Xie Yanchuan stood there, giving Xu Jinzhi the feeling of seeing a male lead from a Korean drama.

In her past life, she had accepted Xie Yanchuan so quickly partly because of his good looks.

When Xu Jinzhi stopped at the curb, Xie Yanchuan had already seen her. He quickly walked to the roadside and soon got into the car.

"Where to, handsome? How about coming home with me?" Xu Jinzhi teased, looking at Xie Yanchuan like a roguish rich playboy.

After a moment, Xie Yanchuan replied softly, "Okay." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Seeing Xie Yanchuan’s pretense of calm, Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but laugh, then drove away from the school.

On the way, Xie Yanchuan asked, "Do you have time tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?" Xu Jinzhi thought for a moment and unconsciously asked, "What’s up?"

Xie Yanchuan explained, "Didn’t we talk about having children? If you’re free tomorrow, let’s go to the hospital for a check-up first."

Xie Yanchuan had confirmed with Xu Jinzhi again that morning. She wasn’t just talking recklessly yesterday; indeed, they were ready to start planning for a child.

So today, while at school, Xie Yanchuan had already decided to go for a medical examination first.

He was studying medicine, and about having a child, since it was a planned pregnancy, they should be well-prepared in all aspects.

"There’s a holiday over New Year’s Day in a couple of days, and I do have work tomorrow, but there’s nothing particularly important. Tomorrow works too."

In their past lives, they had also undergone a medical examination, and both her and Xie Yanchuan’s health were quite good, without any need for treatments; but this time Xie Yanchuan didn’t know that, so going for a check-up was also fine.

Thus, the two of them decided on tomorrow’s plans.

Meanwhile, at this very moment elsewhere, Lin Chu had finally found Xu Zhen through various connections!

The moment she finally saw Xu Zhen, Lin Chu was thrilled. She couldn’t hide the joy on her face and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Xu Zhen’s hand.

They were in a parking lot, and Xu Zhen’s assistant and driver were there, but no one stepped forward to stop Lin Chu, who was completely immersed in her own joy and didn’t notice anything unusual.

Xu Zhen saw the woman beside him and couldn’t help frowning, asking somewhat displeasedly, "Who are you? What do you want?"

Lin Chu didn’t expect Xu Zhen had forgotten her. The smile on her face froze for a moment as she hurriedly said, "I’m Lin Chu, don’t you remember me?"

Xu Zhen hesitated for a moment as if he remembered her, then coldly asked, "What is it?"

Lin Chu nodded repeatedly, "I’m pregnant with your child!"

Xu Zhen fell silent, his gaze becoming somewhat dangerous as he looked at Lin Chu, who thought he didn’t believe her and hastily took out her medical report from her bag.

"Look! I’m pregnant, over a month now! It happened that night at the hotel!" Lin Chu claimed confidently.

There was another silence. After a while, Xu Zhen took the pregnancy report from Lin Chu’s hand and looked at the results. He suddenly laughed, a sound that seemed eerie in the parking lot.

For some reason, Lin Chu suddenly had a very ominous premonition, as the smile on her face gradually faded.

"How come I didn’t know we had relations?" Xu Zhen looked up at Lin Chu, his eyes full of sarcasm.

Lin Chu was initially stunned, a sudden panic welling up inside her. She said blankly, "It was over a month ago, that night we drank together, and then I went to find you..."

She stopped midway, her heart uneasy and her voice inevitably lacking confidence as she asked Xu Zhen, "What do you mean? Don’t you want this child?"

At this moment, Xu Zhen’s reaction was completely different from what Lin Chu had anticipated. Knowing about the pregnancy, shouldn’t he be happy?

"Are you sure this child is mine?" Xu Zhen asked.

"Who else could it be but yours?" Lin Chu’s expression grew fierce, and her voice became shriller.

Before Xu Zhen could say anything, Lin Chu continued, "Are you trying to shirk responsibility? I have evidence, and if you won’t take responsibility, I will definitely ruin you!"

Xu Zhen looked at the woman in front of him as if watching a fool. Previously, this woman had schemed against him. Initially, he had simply given her a room number to embarrass her, and he thought that would be the end of it.
