Meng Yuan also heard movement at the door. She opened it, her large belly protruding, and walked out. Seeing Jiang Nuan, she was overjoyed.
"Nuan Nuan, you're here." Her voice was filled with joy.
Glancing over, she saw Wang Yuqian, and her expression changed drastically.
Why was this woman here at this time?
"Why are you here again? Didn't I tell you not to come looking for me? If you have the ability, go find He Mingrun." Meng Yuan was agitated. This woman was so vile she disgusted her. She was pregnant now and didn't want to argue with anyone.
Wang Yuqian looked at her pregnant state, thinking she still wanted to fight for a man looking like this.
She simply wanted to take advantage of Meng Yuan's pregnancy, seduce He Mingrun, and achieve her dream of marrying into wealth.
"I told him before I came. He's too cowardly to tell you himself, so he sent me. Meng Yuan, if I were you, I would have left long ago and let the people who love each other be together."
Meng Yuan sneered, "But you're not me, so get out immediately!"
"Hmph! I'll make CEO He tell you the word 'divorce' himself. We'll see." Wang Yuqian spat out a threat. As she turned to leave, she saw He Mingrun standing behind Mu Jiuchen with a grim expression.
Wang Yuqian's red lips parted in surprise, her eyes filled with terror. "CEO He, I... I..."
She didn't know how to explain, only feeling that she was extremely unlucky.
He Mingrun, however, said to the two bodyguards behind him, "This woman has repeatedly attempted to harm my wife and child. Take her straight to prison."
Wang Yuqian froze, tears welling in her eyes as she looked at He Mingrun, crying and explaining, "CEO He, you've misunderstood me. I didn't. I just came to chat with Madam."
He Mingrun pointed to the camera on her head. "This is the third time you've come here to threaten my wife. This is the least severe. Last time, you instigated my wife to commit suicide. This time, you've tried to harm my wife again. Can't I report you for attempted murder?"
"I... I didn't. I just like..."
"You just like my money. Going to jail, having nothing, is your best destination. Please." He Mingrun stepped aside expressionlessly, making way.
Wang Yuqian cried heartbreakingly as she was led away, but He Mingrun didn't even bat an eyelid.
Meng Yuan looked at He Mingrun in surprise. "How did you know she'd been here three times?"
He Mingrun looked at her with anger, a mix of heartache and fury.
This fool, enduring being bullied and not telling him? Didn't she trust him to protect her?
"Silly girl, being bullied and not telling me. Seeing you in a bad mood, I had to find the reason myself. Fortunately, I installed a camera here and found out that woman had visited you." He had been quite depressed during this period. After Yuan Yuan got pregnant, he treated her like a revered ancestor.
But he was willing!
However, in the last half month, Meng Yuan had suddenly become silent, which made him more anxious. That's why he installed a camera at the door, only to see Wang Yuqian from the company threatening her. He was furious.
Seeing this woman cause trouble again today from the surveillance, he knew the time was right. He wouldn't do anything by halves; he'd send the woman to jail.
Meng Yuan: "..." As expected of you.
Jiang Nuan looked at He Mingrun, and her anger instantly vanished.
Mu Jiuchen: "Let's go in."
He looked at Meng Yuan's round belly and carefully moved a little further away.
Meng Yuan: "!!"
She asked in confusion, "Ninth Master, what are you doing?"
Mu Jiuchen: "I'm afraid I might bump into you by accident. You look like you're about to give birth."
Jiang Nuan: "..." How can you be so perceptive?
"Heh heh..." He Mingrun chuckled. "These two little ones are very mischievous. They fight every day, causing Yuan Yuan a lot of suffering."
Mu Jiuchen glanced at Meng Yuan's difficulty walking and instantly lost the desire for a daughter. It was too hard!
"Wife, we're never having children again."
This sudden remark stunned everyone. Several pairs of eyes looked at him in unison.
Mu Jiuchen: "!!" Did he say something wrong?
Meng Yuan was very angry. "Mu Jiuchen, what do you mean by that? Are you disgusted by pregnant people because they're ugly?"
Mu Jiuchen felt a large pot suddenly descend upon him.
He quickly shook his head, his gaze firm. "That's absolutely not the case. You are beautiful when you're pregnant. There's a saying that women who are pregnant and in the kitchen are the most beautiful. A wife who willingly bears children for her husband, and a wife who willingly cooks and waits for her husband to return, are the most beautiful women. I just don't want Nuan Nuan to suffer. Don't overthink it."
Meng Yuan: "..." She blinked, indicating that he had disturbed her.
Jiang Nuan blinked her eyes and looked at Mu Jiuchen exasperatedly. She walked into the living room and sat down.
Mu Jiuchen quietly followed her.
Mu Jiuchen didn't understand. "You two, why are you living here instead of the large villa in He Family? What are you doing?"
Meng Yuan looked at him. "Grandma said that we young couples also need private space. She said I could move back after the baby is born."
Mu Jiuchen didn't pursue the matter further. Instead, he looked at He Mingrun. "Has Uncle successfully won Aunt back yet?"
He Mingrun shook his head. "I don't know. The old man is farming in the countryside."
Mu Jiuchen!!
"Let's go out for lunch together." He Mingrun was also hungry.
Mu Jiuchen nodded. "Yes! Call Qing Shuo's family too. Let's get together. We have to go back in a few days."
Meng Yuan looked at Jiang Nuan. "Nuan Nuan, you must come back when I give birth."
Jiang Nuan smiled and nodded. "Okay! I will definitely come back to accompany you during childbirth."
Jiang Nuan didn't know that she would eventually break her promise.
...
After staying in Jinshi for more than ten days, Jiang Nuan and Mu Jiuchen returned to Modu.
On the day they returned to Modu, as soon as Jiang Nuan got off the plane, she received a call from her third brother.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Jiang Nuan asked.
"Nuan Nuan, Eldest Brother is missing? Eldest Brother didn't come home last night. When I woke up this morning, Mom said Eldest Brother still hadn't returned. I tried calling his phone, but it's been unreachable."
After hearing this, Jiang Nuan frowned slightly, a bad premonition arising in her heart.
"Brother, don't worry. When was the last time you saw Eldest Brother yesterday?"
Lu Jinyan: "In the morning. We had breakfast together. He went to the company with Dad. He had a banquet last night, and Dad came back first. Dad returned around ten o'clock. You know our family usually goes to bed early. I was already in my room at that time, so I didn't pay attention. This morning, I checked his room. It was very tidy, with no sign of him having returned."
Jiang Nuan: "Okay! I understand. Please comfort Mom and Dad's emotions first. I've arrived at the airport and will be back soon."
"Okay."
Jiang Nuan quickly hung up and called Yu Han.
Yu Han was in Jinshi. She had seen her yesterday when she went to the wellness center.
"Nuan Nuan."
Jiang Nuan: "Han Han, did my Eldest Brother contact you yesterday?"
