Lu Bojing widened his eyes and caught her from falling. "Y-You…"

  "Lihua!"

  Wei instinctively got up to rush towards her. But Shen Yang coldly pushed him back and struck his back on the wall. "You are not allowed to go anywhere, ex-Boss…"

  "Shen Yang!"

  Wei was completely helpless. If he could, he would have broken his limbs apart for daring to stop him. But Jiang Zhen's other guards had completely surrounded him.

  Jia trembled too. Her sister was right in front of her in pain, but she couldn't even do anything. The whole Jiang family was in uproar too, seeing Lihua about to faint.

  Lu Bojing anxiously rubbed her palm and pressed some points to make her feel better. "I-I will help you, okay? I will protect you and your child…… Everything will be alright," his eyes were filled with tears. Zhao Weisheng, too, was worriedly patting her back.

  Jiang Zhen slowly widened his eyes. "Ooohhh. What do we have here?"

  He alternated his glance between Wei and Lihua. "What do you know…" he laughed, "Your ex-wife is pregnant. You didn't tell me this good news, Wei."

  Wei shot his icy glares at him.

  "Aweee this is so cute. You are going to be a father. A father?"

  His laughter crackled even louder as if it was too funny. "Oh my God, this is amazing. Shen Yang! You didn't tell me such important news."

  Shen Yang looked guilty. "Apologies, Boss. I slipped."

  He waved his hand. "Ah, it's alright. You have done an exemplary job, so I will let this go. It's not too late anyway."

  Jiang Zhen got up from his seat and walked towards her.

  "Jiang Zhen! Don't you touch her!" Wei roared.

  He raised his brow. "Firstly, you two are divorced, so you have lost all your rights to her. And if you hadn't, I have already declared her as mine. Doesn't the victor get all the prizes after winning a war?"

  Jia clenched her teeth in disgust and fury.

  Jiang Zhen…I promise, I will give you such a painful and cruel death that even God will shudder! It's impossible to defeat you now, but this won't continue forever. One day, you will pay the price for every single crime!

  Li Dong, at her side, only chuckled. "You are right, Jiang Zhen. These idiots don't understand. Hey, hey, why don't I take Jiang Wei to my lab and inspect his brain? We might know why he fails to accept reality. And I would love to take my subject 026 back too."

  Lu Bojing froze.

  "I have some scores to settle with the Lu clan," he narrowed his eyes. "By the way, Lu Bojing. I cannot believe that you became a doctor yourself~ This will be even more fun. Two doctors playing research~ Sounds exciting, right?" His eyes beamed as if a child got a toy.

  Lu Bojing's breaths grew ragged. He didn't remember most of his childhood, but somehow, he remembered Li Dong's creepy voice and smile. He remembered flashes of his past in that dark room with Li Dong. It was hazy and blurry and only bits and parts. Nevertheless, they were frightening.

  No, no! I cannot think about him right now!

  He forced himself to shut down all the scary and dark thoughts and only focussed on Lihua.

  Lu Bojing said, "She is too stressed. N-not good at all for the baby's health. She needs proper hospitalization…"

  Jiang Yubi wiped her eyes. "Q-quickly! Take her to the hospital!"

  Li Dong laughed. "Why does she need hospitalization when I am here?"

  Jia and the whole Jiang family threw dark and killing gazes at him. On the other hand, Lu Bojing paled. "N-No! I-I won't let you touch her…"

  His body began to tremble hard. The memories were fuzzy, but it was as if his body remembered everything all too well.

  He vigorously shook his head and pulled Lihua to his side fiercely. "Don't come near her!"

  Li Dong sneered in amusement. "Well my dear subject 026, that depends on what Jiang Zhen wants. If he doesn't allow hospitalization, then I am your best bet."

  Old Madam, Jiang Xiuying glared at him. "What do you mean by doesn't allow? We don't need your permission! Can't you see she is feeling sick? It's all because of Jiang Zhen babbing his mouth in the first place!"

  Jiang Zhen narrowed his eyes. "The women in this family really like to talk and retaliate so much. But worry not. I will properly explain to each one of you how it is to talk back to the Mafia King, Jiang Zhen. And I won't let anything happen to my dear Lihua anyway."

  Wei's expression turned so cold and frigid as if he would transform the base into the Arctic.

  "Don't dare address her as your woman."

  He smirked. "You can only give empty threats to me now, Wei. Now that I know that she is pregnant, I will take extra 'care' of her. Playing with your baby's life feels more amusing and entertaining, right?"

  Wei dug his nails in his palm until blood trickled out of his skin.

  "Imagine me holding your baby and then killing him or her right in front of you~"

  "Jiang Zhen!"

  Shen Yang kicked on Wei's back before he could tear himself off the grip. "Behave respectfully, Mr. Jiang," he dangerously smiled.

  Jiang Ninghong shut her eyes as tears spilled out.

  Ruiling…


  She didn't know what she was supposed to say to her about Shen Yang's ugly face. Jiang Li and Jiang Weiyuan's expressions were unsightly too.

  Jiang Weiyuan cursed himself.

  I was the one who promoted him to become the Chief. I thought he was perfect for my daughter. I supported her to fight for her love.

  It was all my fault……If only I hadn't trusted him so much…


  If only I hadn't pushed Shen Yang to Ruiling for her feelings to develop for him…


  All my fault…


  For the first time in his life, Jiang Weiyuan broke into tears. Imagining his daughter's heartbreak twisted his chest in pain.

  I am sorry, Ruiling. I am so sorry……
