to doAt the meeting, Shen Wei smiled and announced to everyone that Fu Yan had been promoted to Deputy General Manager. Colleagues cheered and asked Fu Yan to treat them to a meal. Fu Yan was also ver...He simply opened her hand, left the living room without a word, and slammed the bedroom door shut.

Fu Yan looked at the closed door, knowing that Ji Lin was truly angry.

She sighed helplessly, guessing that this would be the outcome.

After Fu Yan carefully placed the cotton swab and medicine, she slowly moved her feet and went to her room.

She sat at the head of the bed for a long time, thinking about many things. She knew that the Huo family's affairs weren't over yet, and she didn't know what she would face next.

Ji Lin knocked on the door and asked her if she was asleep.

She suddenly realized, "No way."

Ji Lin pushed open the door and came in, holding a cup of freshly warmed milk, and handed it to her.

"Have a drink and then go back to sleep. You need nourishment right now."

Fu Yan took the cup of milk, her heart felt warm and her eyes welled up. She didn't dare to look at Ji Lin, mainly because she felt embarrassed. Ji Lin would definitely tease her about it.

Ji Lin didn't point it out.

He sat on the edge of the bed and blurted out, “I want to be a father to this child.”

Fu Yan was taken aback, reacting for two seconds before finally coming to her senses. Her heart ached suddenly. Ji Lin didn't even ask if she wanted to keep the child, knowing her decision.

I'm afraid of my child being helpless after birth and also afraid of people gossiping about her. I want to protect both her and the baby.

Although her heart was moved to tears, she put on a look of disdain and said, "No, don't even think about getting something for nothing. You already have a wife and children; you're already a winner in life."

"I don't want to," Ji Lin said with a roll of his eyes.

Fu Yan spoke in a serious tone, "You really don't need to. You're the child's godfather, better than a real father."

What are you going to do then What if your belly gets big, can you hide it

"Actually, a month ago I was already preparing to quit my job and move to another city, to completely leave the Huo family. Unfortunately, my resume went nowhere after being sent out, and I didn't expect to get pregnant either. Now, at this crucial time, there's definitely no company that would accept me."

"But if the Huo family found out, they would take the child away. I can't give them my child."

Ji Lin frowned, "Then I'll resign first. Before the child is born, I'll find you a safe place to hide and ensure you and the child are safe."

Fu Yan was silent. Was there truly a place in the vast world where she could hide, without being discovered by Huo Mingzheng

Ji Lin saw that her eyelids were twitching, knowing she definitely hadn't slept all night last night.

“Drink the milk first, and then settle in at Uncle Fu’s place. You can take a nap first, I’ll wake you up when it’s time for dinner.”

Fu Yan listened obediently and finished the milk, then lay down on the bed and fell asleep after a while.

She slept particularly soundly that night. When Ji Lin called her to eat, she was still groggy.

Ji Lin doesn't cook, she has people deliver her favorite dishes and specifically asks for less oil, less salt, and light flavors.

After dinner, Ji Lin pulled her onto the sofa and sat down, rubbing medicine on her knees.

Fu Yan cooperated by rolling up her trousers. Ji Lin unscrewed the lid of the ointment and suddenly reacted, "You're pregnant now, can this medicine be used"

Fu Yan nodded, "I checked online, pregnant women are not forbidden to eat it."

"That's good." Only then did Ji Lin feel relieved.

At that moment, his phone rang.

It's a string of unnoted numbers, Ji Lin was about to hang up, Fu Yan's eyes were complicated, "It's Huo Mingzheng's number."go.His thumb gently rubbed the tender skin on the back of her neck, with a hint of soothing.Tell her not to be nervous.His warm lips pressed against her lower lip, moving gently, rubbing against the p...
