Chapter 406 The Greedy and Lustful Secretary 18
The smell of disinfectant filled every corner of the hospital. Yan Jiu sat on a bench outside the prenatal examination room, surrounded by medical staff coming and going, and pregnant women and their families with different expressions. However, her eyes were a little wandering, revealing a hint of imperceptible cunning.
While Pei Ci was communicating with the doctor, she stood up quietly like a nimble deer and slipped away again.
Pei Ci returned to the bench and saw the empty seat. At that moment, his eyes instantly became cold and sharp, as if he had become a different person.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and quickly mobilized his men to start searching around.
His temples were throbbing and every nerve was tense to the extreme. This was not the first time Yan Jiu had escaped. He felt that his patience was being exhausted bit by bit.
Finally, Yan Jiu was found taking a leisurely walk in a corner of the hospital garden.
Pei Ci walked up quickly and grabbed her wrist, but didn't dare to use force.
His face was slightly flushed with anger, his hair was a little messy, and his usually deep and charming eyes were now full of sinisterness.
But when his eyes fell on Yan Jiu's abdomen, the rage in his heart was extinguished like a basin of cold water, leaving only helplessness and a deep sense of powerlessness.
He loosened his hands and clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, his chest heaving violently, obviously trying hard to control his emotions.
"Yanyan," Pei Ci's voice trembled slightly, a mixture of anger and helplessness. "Didn't you already promise to be with me? Why did you run away?"
Yan Jiu raised his head slightly, a hint of annoyance in his eyes: "Why did I run away? What's wrong with me taking a walk? Don't try to imprison me."
Pei Ci recalled that when he was furious, he had indeed thought of imprisoning her by his side.
But from the moment he learned that Yan Jiu was pregnant, everything became different.
He was afraid that any extreme behavior of his would hurt her and the unborn baby. He couldn't imagine how much regret he would feel if Yan Jiu was hurt because of his recklessness.
"That's not what I meant." Pei Ci lowered his voice, with a hint of flattery. "You can take a walk if you want, but you have to have your bodyguards and assistants accompany you. You're pregnant now, so you have to pay attention to your personal safety."
Yan Jiu snorted disdainfully and crossed his arms over his chest: "I'm very careful. I don't like having so many people around me, like they're watching a criminal."
Pei Ci sighed helplessly and rubbed his temples with his hands, trying to ease his tense nerves.
"If you don't like it, I'll let them follow you in secret. Tell me in advance where you want to go. Don't sneak away where I can't see you. I'll be worried."
Yan Jiu raised his lips in a mocking arc, and said in a sinister voice, "Oh, so you're still worried about me. I thought you only wanted to sleep with me, stalk me, and imprison me."
Pei Ci was left in a state of confusion by Yan Jiu's series of sarcastic remarks. He knew that this was the result of his own evil deeds.
For so many years, Yan Jiu had been secretly in love with him, but he had always been cold to her and never gave her any response.
Until that night, after drinking a glass of wine, he lost his mind and discovered his love for Yan Jiu.
However, Yan Jiu said that she no longer wanted to like him.
That won't work, she has to like him.
Pei Ci could understand Yan Jiu's childish behavior of always tormenting him.
"Yanyan, I will never do that again."
Pei Ci's eyes were filled with sincerity and determination as he made a promise to Yan Jiu.
"I don't believe what you said." Yan Jiu turned his head away, unwilling to look at him.
Pei Ci took a step forward, placed his hands lightly on Yan Jiu's shoulders, and looked into her eyes lovingly.
"Yanyan, we still have a lifetime to spend together after we get married. I believe that one day you will believe in my love for you."
As he spoke, Pei Ci carefully took out a document from the briefcase he was carrying. It was a transfer contract.
"Yan Yan, I've already signed. Pei Group is now yours. From now on, I'll be working for you to earn money."
Yan Jiu took the contract with some surprise, flipped through it casually, and still had an indifferent expression on his face.
"You have nothing now, and I don't want to marry a pauper like you."
Pei Ci: “…”
