President Wife is Pretty and Cool - Chapter 399

Chapter 399 Scapegoat

“When the child is born, my figure will be ruined and my career will be ruined. Yet, you still want to wait for me to marry you? Aren’t you just trying to get a child out of nothing? Let me tell you, there’s no way. If you don’t marry me, I’m going to abort this child. My career is at its peak and I’m not worried that I won’t be able to find a good man.”

Liu Xixi started to threaten him with the child. After all, this was the only child in the Tan Family, he wouldn’t dare to disobey her.

When Tan Shilin heard this, his expression changed and he stood up immediately.

“This is my child, what reason do you have to abort him? I’ll marry you after the child is born. You should know that my dad is in charge of the family. Back when I married Hu Hui, he took back the household register. I need his permission to do anything.”

“If we don’t get married, how are we going to get the child registered? If it doesn’t work out, I’ll beg Old Master. I think he can let us get married on account of his future grandchildren.”

Liu Xixi really wanted to marry into a rich family now. The entertainment circle was full of schemes and plots, what could be more comfortable than the life of a rich family?

“Don’t be silly. Just give birth to the child first and I will talk to my dad about the marriage slowly. He should agree to our marriage on account of our grandson. After all, you are his mother, so don’t worry about the entertainment circle for the time being. For my son’s sake, you should take care of the child.”

Tan Shilin wanted her to push her work aside soon, so nothing could happen to his son.

Liu Xixi started to panic. She was very popular in the entertainment circle now, how could she push her work aside so easily?

“You can’t do that, Shilin. I signed a contract in the entertainment industry. The compensation will cost several billion yuan. Don’t worry, I will definitely protect our child and won’t do anything too difficult. If you don’t marry me, I will have to earn some money for our son, right?”

Since things had come to this, Liu Xixi didn’t force him to marry her anymore. After all, she still wanted to keep her job in the entertainment circle, which was a backup plan.

“I have given you a villa. After you are done with the contracts, don’t take on any new jobs. Focus on raising my child and give birth to a son safely. I will ensure your wellbeing.” Tan Shilin warned.

Liu Xixi nodded and listened to him. She would have to think of an idea. In a few months, her belly wouldn’t get big and she wouldn’t be able to hide it anymore.

Coincidentally, Lan Yanran’s new movie was on

TV.

She had a sudden idea, she had found a scapegoat.

It wasn’t easy for her to have a child, but it was much easier to fake it.

She really didn’t hate Lan Yanran. But he would be the scapegoat because he had an older sister who she didn’t like.

She had always hated Lan Anran for threatening her with photos. If she wanted revenge, she could only use her brother. Tomorrow’s gala would be an opportunity.

Although they couldn’t get married, if Tan Shilin found out that she was pregnant with his child, he would at least show her some mercy and they might even get married in the future.

“Shilin, I have a director’s party tomorrow. It’s in the contract and I have to go. Don’t worry, I won’t drink. I’ll send you a text when the time comes and you can come and pick me up.”

Liu Xixi had divulged this matter to him beforehand and so she would be watching the show tomorrow.

The next day, at the Mo Corporation Office

Mo San handed the information he had investigated to Mo Jinrong.

“Young Sir, the matter you asked me to investigate has been investigated. The tavern that Young Madam mentioned does indeed have surveillance cameras, but the surveillance cameras across the street were broken. I didn’t find any trace of Young Madam there. Is she lying?”

“If she can say it, it means that she has really been there and watched all the videos from the day before,” Mo Jinrong said softly.

“Young Master, I must be blind then! I’ve been watching all the surveillance cameras from morning until midnight these past few days, but I didn’t see Young Madam anywhere. I also asked the owner, but he didn’t throw anything away. They don’t have a long row of sinks in the bathroom either, it’s just an ordinary small restaurant.”

Mo San’s dark circles proved his words.

Mo Jinrong fell into deep thought again. Lan Anran was hiding something from him.

He had told her everything and yet she was still keeping secrets from him. Did she not trust him?

“Young Master, is it possible that Zero and Young Madam are good friends? Did she deliberately keep it a secret to protect her identity?”

“Good friends? What kind of good friend would give their love token to someone else? Would you do this?” Mo Jinrong asked.

Mo San shook his head.

“Young Master! If they aren’t good friends, what else could they be? Do you think your previous suspicions are right?”.

Mo Jinrong had previously suspected that Lan Anran had another identity: Zero!

“Probably, but that isn’t important right now. Mo Shengli signed a contract with those companies behind my back. Since he has signed the contract, we will have to continue. Contact them and see what other projects there are. You must be careful of those sly old foxes. Let me know if anything happens.”

After Mo San left, Mo Jinrong stayed in the office to approve the contract.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

Mo Jinrong thought it was Mo San and didn’t hesitate to let him in. However, the person who entered was a woman with heavy makeup and a branded bag. “Who are you? Who let you in? Get out!”

“You don’t recognize me anymore?”

Chen Xiao smiled.

“Who are you? I don’t know you at all. Do you know where this place is?”

Mo Jinrong stood up, wanting to chase her out. Chen Xiao sat calmly on the sofa.

“President Mo, important people tend to forget things. Have you forgotten the night you stayed in a hotel on a business trip in F Nation?”

When Chen Xiao mentioned this, he immediately remembered.

Back when he was staying in a hotel in Country F, he was almost assassinated by an unknown person. Back then, they didn’t seem to know about his illness, so they didn’t specifically send female assassins over.

In a moment of desperation, he hid in Chen Xiao’s room. Back then, Chen Xiao was still a twenty-year-old girl. She was quick-witted and covered for him, which was why he had escaped death.

He gave her a cheque and a name card, telling her to come and find him if she needed anything in the future. He didn’t expect her to really come over, let alone today.

“You are Chen Xiao? Why are you here today?”

Mo Jinrong’s voice was indifferent. It was normal for him to be like this, as this was a woman he had only met once and had been saved by before. He was already being very respectful by allowing her to stay.

“You finally remembered, Boss Mo. Back then, you gave me a cheque and a name card. You told me to find you if I needed anything, so I’m here to ask for your help.”

Chen Xiao smiled.
