However, this hinted that the two of them had had a sexual relationship before. Otherwise, why would she use such a reason to coax him into marriage?

  Little did Zhao Youlin expect the pretty girl in the police force who had been described as someone talented with a good sense of judgment by Mu Chen to actually be like this.

  Judging from Li Yan’s demeanor, he apparently did not have much feelings for Lu Shu. Even so, she still threw herself at him, much less attempt to seduce him when he gave her a cold shoulder. She even tricked him despite knowing he did not love her.

  Zhao Youlin did not want to continue listening to their conversation. One was ignorant, the other tried to bind him with his child. It was hard for one to have good feelings for her when she was no more like the previous Zhao Youlin.

  Just as Zhao Youlin was about to turn around and leave with a lack of interest, Lu Shu’s following words made her pause mid-stride.

  When Li Yan learned that he had a child out of nowhere, his panic was far greater than the joy of fatherhood. He was so shocked that he accidentally let go of Lu Shu.

  His reaction had greatly exceeded Lu Shu’s expectations. Originally, she thought that Li Yan would certainly be very happy when she told him that she was pregnant with his child.

  With the child as her trump card, Li Yan would have to agree to whatever she said. By the time they got married, she had nothing left to fear and she could not get pregnant with his child for real.

  However, she forgot that Li Yan had never had any feelings for her since the beginning. A child conceived without the foundation of love would only end up in shock instead of surprise.

  Li Yan’s repulsion had truly burst her bubble and infuriated her.

  Her face darkened. Her gentle, longing and frail demeanor soon disappeared. Instead, she put on a straight face and questioned him coldly, “Brother Yan, are you still thinking about Zhao Youlin?”


  Zhao Youlin paused mid-step when she abruptly heard her name being mentioned. She turned around and was stupefied when she watched the two people confronting each other. She fell speechless.

  ‘What did I have to do with you two when you both are quarreling?! If it wasn’t for the fact that we had been assigned to the same team during the mission last time, I wouldn’t have known you two, okay?! Most importantly, I’m not familiar with you guys!’


  Zhao Youlin grumbled to herself. Before she finished complaining, Lu Shu further shouted.

  The moment Li Yan heard Zhao Youlin’s name, the shocking and lamenting expression on his face was entirely captured by Lu Shu. This had further excited Lu Shu.

  “Indeed, you still think about that woman!” Lu Shu raised her voice. Her eyes turned red as she looked at the man who remained silent. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she shouted in a heartache, “What’s good about that woman?! She’s no more than just a pretty face! Is her background as good as mine?! Is she more educated than me?! Is she as popular as me?! Why did you fall for her and not pay any attention to me?!”


  Zhao Youlin, who had been hiding in a corner on the street, was truly shocked when she heard this.

  Li Yan fell for her? When did this happen? Why had she not been the slightest bit aware of it?!

  She carefully thought over it. Although Li Yan and herself were in the same batch when they joined the police force, they were in separate teams. So, they hardly meet each other, let alone be considered good friends.

  Under such circumstances, how did Li Yan fall for her? The fact that Zhao Youlin could easily hear such breaking news on the street had flustered her greatly.

  When Li Yan heard Lu Shu’s accusations, he fell silent for a long while before he blurted out with some difficulties, “She’s just a good person.”
