Chapter 1249: Couldn't Free up This Spot for Free

Ye Xi was already very stressed out about this decision to become a surrogate mother. If it weren't for her family, there was no way she would still be here enduring Jing Shaoze's mocking.

Ye Xi saw that Jing Shaoze was always very gentle towards Ni Jing, but whenever he turned to look at her, his gaze was so cold and demonic that it made her heart tremble.

Furthermore, some of his actions made it hard for her stay unperturbed.

Ye Xi felt that Jing Shaoze was completely toying with her.

She took a deep breath and pushed him out of her way. She couldn't let this man mess with her heart any longer.

As soon as Ye Xi pushed Jing Shaoze away, she saw that Ning Shu was standing at the door. Her face instantly turned pale. "Ni Jing."

Jing Shaoze hastily turned around. When he saw Ning Shu standing there expressionlessly, he asked with a soft smile, "Jingjing, what are you doing here?"

Ning Shu lifted her eyebrows as she said, "You were in the kitchen for a long time, so I came to see what you were doing."

"You two are?" Ning Shu's gaze moved back and forth between Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi.

Jing Shaoze walked over and placed his hand on Ning Shu's shoulder to lead her away from here.

As he walked away, he turned and glanced at Ye Xi coldly.

Ye Xi's heart trembled when she saw Jing Shaoze's cold expression.

Jing Shaoze really did love his wife.

"Shaoze, come here. I need to talk to you about something." Jing Shaoze's mother spoke to Jing Shaoze while glancing at Ning Shu.

"Go ahead. I'll head back to my room first." Ning Shu brushed off Jing Shaoze's hand.

"Alright," said Jing Shaoze warmly.

Ning Shu went back to her bedroom and started considering her next course of action. Since Ni Jing wasn't going to come back, her task was to deal with Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi.

She might as well just get divorced.

That way she could save herself the irritation of having to keep watching them. However, she couldn't free up this position for Ye Xi for free.

Jing Shaoze had cheated on Ni Jing.

Ning Shu was deep in thought when Jing Shaoze walked in. He sat down by the bed and said to Ning Shu, "Jingjing, something's come up at the company so I'll have to work late. I won't be coming back tonight, so you be extra careful, ok?"

Ning Shu glanced at Jing Shaoze and asked, "What came up that's so urgent for you to have to go to the company at night?"

"There's an urgent cooperation plan to deal with. Since I'm the president of the company, I have to be there." Jing Shaoze's expression was gentle.

What lies!

No matter how gentle his expression was, it couldn't conceal his flickering gaze.

Ning Shu nodded calmly. "Finish the work soon and don't stay up too late. It's not good for your health."

Jing Shaoze reached out and gently stroked Ning Shu's hand for a moment, then turned and left.

Ning Shu sat down on the bed to practice the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. Her entire body felt very uncomfortable and her heartbeat was conspicuously irregular.

She couldn't imagine how hard things must have been for Ni Jing. While she was dealing with such a severe illness, her husband actually betrayed her. Ni Jing had wanted to use her illness to pull Jing Shaoze back to her side.

So whenever Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi were together, Ni Jing would pretend to have a heart attack.

However, there was no way this method could pull back a person who now liked someone else. Once someone no longer cared about you, no matter what you did, it was useless.

Once I no longer love you, you're nothing.

So Ni Jing's actions only served to torment herself.

Ning Shu, who was covered with sweat from practicing by now, paused her training. She glanced at her watch. It was already eleven in the evening. She hadn't realized that she had been practicing for so long.

Chapter 1250: Trying to Fool a Well-educated Person!

Ning Shu took a bath, then went downstairs to get water. As she was passing by Ye Xi's room, she heard movements come from inside.

She pressed herself against the wall but could only vaguely hear some movements. She couldn't hear anything concrete.

Ning Shu thought about things for a moment, then quietly opened the main door to walk out of the house and over to the window of Ye Xi's room.

The lights in Ye Xi's room were still on. Through a gap in the curtain, Ning Shu saw that Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi were laying in the same bed. From the looks of things, they had just finished doing it.

She could faintly hear the sound of Ye Xi sobbing.

Meanwhile, Jing Shaoze just looked at Ye Xi's fair back for a moment, then pulled her to face him. "Quit it with your acting. Since you're doing things for money, of course you have to sacrifice some things."

"I..." Ye Xi's gaze was a little dazed. When Jing Shaoze saw the red marks on Ye Xi's body, his gaze deepened and he lowered his head to kiss Ye Xi's lips.

Ning Shu turned and went back into the house. She walked straight to Ye Xi's room and kicked the door, making a low thump.

Since when was surrogate pregnancy you guys tumbling on the bed and making a baby? Wasn't it supposed to be in vitro fertilization, using eggs from Ni Jing and sperm from Jing Shaoze, and having Ye Xi carry the fertilized egg?

She was well-educated! There was no way they could fool her.

When the two in the room heard the noise, they hastily stopped what they were about to do. Jing Shaoze pulled the blanket over Ye Xi to cover her naked body.

Ye Xi was frightened by this sound, but Jing Shaoze's act of covering her with the blanket made her heart tremble for a moment, then her nose felt a little stuffy.

Jing Shaoze was only wearing pants. His upper body was fully exposed, revealing his sexy, muscular figure. Ye Xi looked away and buried herself under the blanket.

Jing Shaoze frowned, then opened the door. However, there was no one at the door. He looked around but there was no one around at all.

Who had pulled this prank?

Jing Shaoze closed the door, then picked up his clothes and started putting them on.

Ye Xi watched as Jing Shaoze buttoned up his shirt. The movements of his jade-like fingers were exceptionally elegant.

"Who was outside?" asked Ye Xi, her voice slightly hoarse.

Ye Xi glanced at her. "No one."

Ye Xi picked up his coat and left.

After kicking the door, Ning Shu went back upstairs and into her bedroom. Her heart felt a little uncomfortable. She had walked around the villa and up and down the stairs, so she felt a little sick.

She lay down on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. She felt pretty speechless. The situation with those two probably counted as 'familiarity breeds fondness.'

Jing Shaoze had been captivated by the taste of Ye Xi and ended up infatuated with Ye Xi's body.

Due to Ni Jing's health, their bedside activities were always very ordinary. With Ye Xi on the other hand, he could show off his manly conquering ability as much as he liked.

Jing Shaoze had never experienced something like this in the past. At the very least, he hadn't experienced it with Ni Jing.

So these two started sleeping together behind Ni Jing's back.

Furthermore, even up to when Ye Xi gave birth, Ni Jing still thought that the child was hers and Jing Shaoze's.

At the beginning, when Jing Shaoze's mother decided to find a surrogate mother, Ni Jing and Jing Shaoze had gone to the hospital to freeze their eggs and sperm.

Later, Jing Shaoze's mother brought Ye Xi back to stay with the Jing family under the excuse that they needed to prepare her body. Once her body was in the best state, they would implant the sperm and eggs into her uterus.

After Ye Xi gave birth and disappeared, Ni Jing had done her all to take care of the child, which made her already poor health even worse and she eventually died on the operating table.

Ning Shu took a deep breath. Perhaps Jing Shaoze's mother had never considered using Ni Jing's eggs from the start. Jing Shaoze's mother had actually encouraged these events.

Ning Shu gave a cold laugh.

?Chapter 1251: Just Like a Woman of the Ancient Era

Jing Shaoze who was supposed to be tumbling with Ye Xi went upstairs. When he opened the door and saw Ning Shu sitting by the bed and drinking water, his eyes flashed for a moment. He walked over to Ning Shu and asked, "Why haven't you gone to sleep?"

Ning Shu turned around with a surprised expression. "Didn't you say that you were going to the company? Why did you come back?"

"I've already finished dealing with things. If I don't come back, could it be that I should just sleep at the company?" Jing Shaoze looked towards the glass in Ning Shu's hand. "Did you go downstairs just now to get water?"

Someone had kicked the door just now. Jing Shaoze scrutinized Ning Shu's face.

Ning Shu took another sip of water and shook her head. "I didn't go downstairs. Aunt Li got me this water earlier."

Ning Shu's nose twitched a little. "What's that smell on you?" As she spoke, she moved closer to Jing Shaoze to sniff at him. Jing Shaoze hurriedly moved backwards a little. "I was so busy at the company that I got sweaty. It definitely smells bad. I'm going to go shower."

Ning Shu's lips hooked and she said in a gentle tone, "Then go wash up."

Jing Shaoze smiled at Ning Shu gently, then headed into the bathroom. As Ning Shu listened to the sound of the water, she silently sneered.

He was tumbling with another woman right behind his wife's back. It must be very exciting.

After taking a bath, Jing Shaoze lay down next to Ning Shu and said gently, "Let's sleep." Then he closed his eyes and fell deep asleep. The earlier exercise had clearly tired him out.

Ning Shu curled her lips in disdain as several ideas flashed through her head.

The next morning, Jing Shaoze cleaned himself up, then went to wake Ning Shu up. "Jingjing, it's time to get up."

Ning Shu opened her eyes. Jing Shaoze helped her up, then squatted down and placed her slippers in front of her so that she could slip them on just by stretching out her feet.

Following that, he picked up a comb to comb her hair. He skillfully pulled her hair up into a loose but elegant bun, then took an ancient era-style jade hairpin and inserted it into the bun.

Jing Shaoze looked at Ning Shu and said, "Jingjing, you're just like a woman of the ancient era, gentle and beautiful."

What bullshit! Her heart disease was so severe that she didn't even dare to walk too fast. How could she not be gentle!? Even now, even though she was inwardly irritated enough to explode, her movements were still very slow.

Any action slightly too intense would cause her heart to start pounding irregularly.

"Thank you," said Ning Shu while tugging up the corners of her lips. She looked at Jing Shaoze. He was dressed in a suit that made him look handsome and noble. His expression was gentle, his eyes were filled with affection, and he was extremely considerate towards her.

If she hadn't seen Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi together last night, she would have thought that Jing Shaoze was a good man based on this.

He was tall and handsome, with a good figure and deeply passionate. There was no way for someone to be more perfect.

Ning Shu and Jing Shaoze went downstairs together. In the living room, Jing Shaoze's mother was currently talking with Ye Xi. Ye Xi tugged on her collar from time to time in discomfort.

Jing Shaoze's mother was smiling and her gaze contained an ambiguous hint as she looked at Ye Xi. From the looks of it, she clearly knew what had happened last night.

Jing Shaoze's mother liked Ye Xi more than Ning Shu, her real daughter-in-law.

Ning Shu went over and said good morning to Jing Shaoze's mother. Jing Shaoze's mother turned to Ning Shu and said, "Ye Xi's body is almost ready now. We'll probably be able to implant the test tube embryo into her body soon."

Ning Shu's expression was indifferent. "Is that so?"

Ning Shu sized up Jing Shaoze's mother. She had a polite and elegant manner as typical of an upper-class woman. She socialized well with the ladies of the upper class regardless of whether they were in the business or political sector and was like a fish in water at every banquet.

This was a very shrewd woman.

Chapter 1252: No Pain, No Gain

However, Ning Shu found her disgusting. She deliberately brought the surrogate mother back home, acting as a pimp for her son. She was the person that had encouraged what happened between Ye Xi and Jing Shaoze.

"Mom, you seem to like Ye Xi a lot," said Ning Shu with a faint smile.

Jing Shaoze's mother replied with a smile, "Ye Xi is a good child. She's sacrificing herself for the sake of her family. There are few people who are this filial nowadays."

"No pain, no gain." Ning Shu's lips curled. She didn't know if this counted as filial piety or not, but Ye Xi's efforts could revive her father's company.

There was nothing that couldn't be sacrificed. It only depended on whether or not there were enough bargaining chips on the table. If the Ye family went bankrupt, Ye Xi's life wouldn't necessarily be any better compared to now.

Ning Shu looked towards Ye Xi and asked, "Aren't you hot in that scarf?"

Ye Xi had a scarf tightly wrapped around her neck, obviously to cover certain marks.

Ye Xi touched the scarf, then said with a sniffle, "I have a slight cold."

"Then you should take better care of your health. You have to prepare your body properly in order to have a healthy child," said Ning Shu lightly.

Ye Xi's face dimmed for a moment, then she said, "I got it."

During breakfast, Ning Shu's fork fell on the ground. When she bent down to pick it up, she saw that Jing Shaoze was nudging Ye Xi's foot with his under the table.

Ye Xi kept moving away until she finally got annoyed and stomped on Jing Shaoze's foot. Jing Shaoze glanced at Ye Xi with an indifferent expression.

Ye Xi got a little scared and moved her foot away.

"Jingjing, I'll pick it up." When Jing Shaoze saw Ning Shu bend down, he hastily retracted his foot and bent down to pick up the fork.

"Thank you," said Ning Shu mildly.

Jing Shaoze didn't head to work after breakfast, so Ning Shu asked, "You're not going to work?"

Jing Shaoze rubbed his lips and narrowed his eyes as he looked at Ye Xi. He said in a meaningful tone, "I'm not going today. I'm still tired from last night so I'll head to the company in the afternoon."

Ye Xi stiffened when she heard what Jing Shaoze said and she turned around to avoid his gaze.

"Is that so?" asked Ning Shu in a meaningful tone. "Make sure to take good care of your health. Don't wear yourself out too much. Your health is the most important. It'd be terrible if anything happened."

When Jing Shaoze saw how flustered Ye Xi looked, his lips hooked. Upon hearing what Ning Shu said, he retrieved his gaze and said offhandedly, "It's fine. I just need to rest a little."

Jing Shaoze got up. "I'll go make some juice. Jingjing, what kind of juice do you want?"

Last time it was to get digestion medicine and this time it was juice. What reason would he come up with next time?

"Ok then, orange juice," said Ning Shu.

Jing Shaoze headed into the kitchen with a smile. After entering the kitchen, he closed the door. Ye Xi shuddered and set down the glass of water she was holding to leave the room. She didn't want to be alone with Jing Shaoze.

Jing Shaoze stretched out his long leg to block Ye Xi's way and Ye Xi instantly felt a suffocating imposing aura envelop her. It made her heart start beating out of control and her face quickly turned red.

"Please move out of the way." Ye Xi lowered her head and said this in a voice as quiet as that of a mosquito's.

Jing Shaoze lips hooked. "Move out of the way? That's not what you said last night. When your legs were wrapped around my waist, you didn't say tell me to move out of the way."

"I remember that you were the one that seduced me last night, but you're refusing to admit it now?" Jing Shaoze's expression was very nefarious, but it had a deadly attraction.

Chapter 1253: Familiarity Breeds Fondness

Ye Xi was cornered in the kitchen. When she heard what Jing Shaoze said in her ear in his elegant voice, it made her wish she could just crawl into a hole and die. Her face was completely red. "You clearly know that it wasn't like that!"

"It wasn't like that? What do you mean by that?" Jing Shaoze's expression became more and more like that of a rogue. "Weren't you the one hugging me and saying that you wanted more?"

"Enough already! Stop talking about it!" Ye Xi took a deep breath, but her flush refused to fade. "You clearly know that this was what your mother wanted. Your mother's seriously insidious. What I signed with her was a surrogate contract, but she actually told me to do that with you... And threatened to withdraw the money otherwise."

Jing Shaoze scoffed. "You're simply a woman who could do anything for money."

"I'm already too far in to back out. I'll do anything to save my father's company." Ye Xi looked up at Jing Shaoze with a stubborn expression.

Jing Shaoze's brows furrowed unhappily. "You talk like you're some filial daughter, but in plain terms you're simply someone who's willing to cater to a man's crotch for money. How disgusting."

Ye Xi's face had been red, but after Jing Shaoze mocked her like this, all the blood drained from her face. Her little face instantly became pale as snow.

Ye Xi staggered, then pressed her lips together and said stubbornly, "So what if I'm willing to do anything for money?"

"You..." Jing Shaoze was speechless for a moment.

Ye Xi's expression dimmed. "I know my status. My duty is simply to give birth to a child for the Jing family. I won't get in the way of you and your wife, but if you trample on my dignity like this again, I'll tell your wife about this."

Jing Shaoze's eyes dilated, then he yanked Ye Xi's arm hard and said, "If you dare tell Jingjing about this, I'll make you wish you were dead."

Ye Xi's arm hurt a lot due to Jing Shaoze's ruthless grip, but she gritted her teeth and endured it. She said with a stubborn and mocking expression, "If you really love your wife so much, why did you do... Why did you do that with me? "

Jing Shaoze's expression was cold. "Of course I love Jingjing. You're just a commodity to me. I spent tens of millions to buy you, so shouldn't I enjoy it properly?"

"Besides, for the sake of that money, you came to seduce me. So could it be that I should act upright and ignore your advances?" Jing Shaoze leaned over and whispered in Ye Xi's ear, "You taste pretty good."

It really made him want to have another bite.

Ye Xi's heart trembled and she took another step back, but she ended up hitting the wall. Jing Shaoze stretched out his arm and pressed it on the wall behind Ye Xi. As he leaned over her, he saw that her ears were rapidly turning pink. It was very cute.

He leaned over and licked her ear.

Ye Xi trembled, then hastily pushed him away and covered her ear with her hand as she stared at him, wide-eyed.

Jing Shaoze licked his lips, then gently rubbed his lip with his thumb. His demonically charming manner captivated Ye Xi for a moment.

Ning Shu was standing at the entrance of the kitchen. After hearing this conversation, she realized that, as she had suspected, Jing Shaoze's mother had been behind this.

Jing Shaoze's mother had been planning this from the start ever since she found Ye Xi, this surrogate mother. She had never considered using Ni Jing's eggs.

Ni Jing had heart disease, and it was even congenital heart disease. Jing Shaoze's mother was probably worried that the child would end up having physical defects.

So Jing Shaoze's mother had probably found Ye Xi to be a mistress for her son and called her a surrogate mother as a front. That way, once the child was born, the original host would still think that this was her own child.

Ning Shu inwardly scoffed, then looked at the two in the room who were still flirting.

This had all been because Ni Jing couldn't have a child.

Although Jing Shaoze said that he loved Ni Jing, he was infatuated with the feeling of tumbling with Ye Xi.

And so familiarity bred fondness.

Ning Shu headed back to the living room and sat on the sofa to watch TV.

Chapter 1254: So Skilled at Multi-tasking

After a while, Jing Shaoze came out with a glass of juice and placed it in Ning Shu's hand. "Freshly squeezed."

Didn't you head off to flirt just now? You still had the time to squeeze juice? What a joke.

Ning Shu took a sip of the juice. Jing Shaoze said with a gentle expression, "I'm heading to the company soon. Be good at home."

Ning Shu nodded obediently.

Jing Shaoze grabbed his handbag and left. Before he left, he even leaned over to kiss Ning Shu's forehead. The peck was as light as a feather, his lips only brushed against her forehead.

When Jing Shaoze turned around, he saw Ye Xi standing nearby. His lips hooked, then he turned and left.

Ning Shu already had a plan in mind.

When she turned around, she saw Ye Xi standing there in a daze. Ye Xi quickly lowered her head to avoid making eye contact with Ning Shu.

Ning Shu didn't say anything and just turned to go upstairs. She dug out the share certificate from the drawer. This one percent of the shares was originally a betrothal gift for the Ni family.

Ni Jing's parents had given this share to her. One percent of the shares was enough for her to live a wealthy life.

However, Ning Shu wasn't planning on keeping this one percent of the shares anymore. At the very least, she refused to leave it to the Jing family.

Ning Shu got changed, put the Jiuxin pills in her pocket, then grabbed her bag and left. She contacted the largest shareholder of the Jing family's company.

There was always a person in every company who held a lot of the shares and posed a threat to the owner of the company.

Ning Shu planned to sell her one percent of the shares to that shareholder.

That shareholder was surprised to hear that Ning Shu wanted to sell her shares to him. He already held almost as many shares as the Jing family did. If he gained this additional one percent, the balance would gradually tip towards him.

After selling the shares, Ning Shu would gain a large sum of money, but she'd no longer gain a dividend from the company.

She then went to buy a set of acupuncture needles and a mini spy cam.

When she got back to the villa, she saw that Ye Xi was running on the treadmill. Her figure was slim and in good shape. It was obvious that she was very healthy.

Jing Shaoze's mother had clearly put in a lot of effort in choosing a woman for her son.

When Ye Xi saw Ning Shu, she got off the treadmill. It was a good while before she finally said, "You're back." Right after she said that, she felt that it was off. It wasn't her place to say this kind of thing.

Ye Xi seemed to be afraid of Ning Shu. Actually, it didn't seem to be fear, but rather guilt and perhaps a little bit of shame.

Perhaps it was due to guilt that she had disappeared right after giving birth to the child. That in addition to the fact that she had been deeply hurt by Jing Shaoze at that time made her choose to leave.

However, it had been completely useless and instead ended up completely ruining the relationship between Jing Shaoze and Ni Jing. Ni Jing even ended up dying because of it.

After Ni Jing died, there was no one left to get in between them anymore so they finally had a happy ending.

Ning Shu thought about things for a moment, then said to Ye Xi, "I forgot to buy something. Can you help me buy it?"

Ye Xi obviously hadn't expected for Ning Shu to ask her for help. "What is it?"

"I forgot to buy underwear. I only wear underwear of this brand, so can you buy it for me? The servants probably won't be able to get it right."

Ye Xi nodded and took the money that Ning Shu gave her. She went to her room to get changed then headed off.

Chapter 1255: Acupuncture Practice

After Ye Xi left, Ning Shu walked into Ye Xi's room and installed the mini spy cam in a concealed position that faced the bed.

She was planning to get divorced with Jing Shaoze, but it wouldn't just end there.

After installing the mini spy cam, she left the room. Following that, she leisurely opened the box of needles and started giving herself acupuncture.

She had no choice but to rely on acupuncture to relieve some of the discomfort in her heart.

When Ye Xi came back and saw that Ning Shu's face was covered with needles, she was taken aback for a moment. Following that, she placed a bag in front of Ning Shu. "Here's the stuff you wanted."

Ning Shu nodded as she removed the needles from her face. She asked Ye Xi, "What do you plan to do after the baby is born?"

A trace of darkness flashed across Ye Xi's face, then she shook her head and said, "Who knows? I haven't thought that far."

"Although you've been a surrogate mother, your body is still pure and clean as jade. You can live a good life with the one you love," said Ning Shu as she looked at Ye Xi.

Still pure and clean as jade!?

Ye Xi recalled all the things she had done with Jing Shaoze. She was no longer pure.

Ye Xi's expression dimmed. But this man was someone else's husband! And he even loved his wife a lot.

"I'll think about the future later." Ye Xi didn't really want to talk to Ning Shu, so she used the fact that she needed to take a shower as an excuse to leave.

Ning Shu watched Ye Xi walk away, then lifted her eyebrow. Has Ye Xi fallen in love with Jing Shaoze?

Ha. Ha. Ha. You guys are definitely true loves.

Just because you guys had slept together, so you're destined to continue being involved with each other?

In the evening, when Jing Shaoze came back from work, Ning Shu immediately pulled him into the bedroom. Jing Shaoze asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"

"Did something happen?" When Jing Shaoze saw that Ning Shu was in such a hurry to pull him into the bedroom, he just looked towards her with a doting expression.

Ning Shu said, "Take off your clothes."

Jing Shaoze lifted his brows. "Jingjing, what's wrong? You want some now? Why are you telling me to take off my clothes as soon as I get back?"

Ning Shu almost wanted to puke all over Jing Shaoze's face, but she just took out a gleaming needle and said, "I've been studying acupuncture lately, but I couldn't find some of the acupoints, so..."

"So, you want me to be your guinea pig?" Jing Shaoze had a helpless expression on his face. "When did you decide to start learning acupuncture?"

"My dad found me a traditional Chinese medicine specialist and he said that acupuncture could strengthen the capability of the heart and lungs." Ning Shu held the needle as she continued urging Jing Shaoze to take off his clothes.

Jing Shaoze undid his shirt slowly while saying helplessly, "Just call that doctor here. Why bother learning it yourself?"

Jing Shaoze took off his clothes, exposing his muscular body as he obediently lay down on the bed.

"Jingjing, do you actually know how to do this?" asked Jing Shaoze.

As Ning Shu held the needle, she saw that there were some scratches on Jing Shaoze's back. They had obviously been left by Ye Xi last night.

Ning Shu said expressionlessly, "I'm about to start. It might hurt a little."

"Girl, when will you be able to calm down a little?" said Jing Shaoze in a helpless tone that was filled with doting.

Ning Shu's lips simply hooked.

She had the needle in one hand and an acupuncture points diagram in the other as she stabbed the needle into Jing Shaoze's back. Jing Shaoze gave a muffled groan.

"What do you feel?" asked Ning Shu.

"Pain," replied Jing Shaoze in a very helpless tone.

Chapter 1256: Copying, Copied, Copy Again

Ning Shu said happily, "Then looks like I got the right place! Don't move, let me try the next one."

Jing Shaoze's expression became even more helpless as he stayed still to allow Ning Shu to jab him with more needles.

Ning Shu carefully pinpointed an acupoint and pressed the needle down. Jing Shaoze immediately cried out in pain, then asked, "Why was it so painful this time?"

Ning Shu looked at the acupuncture points diagram, then hurriedly pulled out the needle and said in a fluster, "Sorry, I got the wrong place."

Jing Shaoze grimace with pain as he sat up and asked, "Are you done messing around now?"

Ning Shu asked in surprise, "If you knew that I was messing around, why did you still let me prick you?"

"If I refused, would you give up?" Jing Shaoze gently flicked Ning Shu's forehead. "Jingjing, you have such a stubborn personality."

Ning Shu inwardly scoffed. What a good man this was.

Was this man truly gentle, or did he only show his true self in front of Ye Xi? Perhaps it was only in front of Ye Xi that he counted as a true man, a man that made women want to submit to him.

Ning Shu pulled out the rest of the needles. She saw that a purple bead of blood was emerging from an acupoint so she wiped it off and said, "Put your clothes back on. I think I'd better find a dummy to practice on first."

Jing Shaoze slowly put on his clothes. His movements were relaxed and elegant, emitting a natural nobility.

Jing Shaoze patted Ning Shu's head with a gentle expression. "Jingjing, don't worry and take your time. I like you no matter what you're like."

Ning Shu just smiled.

After dinner, Jing Shaoze took a walk with Ning Shu around the villa's garden, but then he got a phone call and said to Ning Shu, "Something's come up at the company so I'm going to head over. I might not be coming back tonight."

Ning Shu nodded. "Don't push yourself too hard."

Jing Shaoze kissed Ning Shu's forehead, then left.

Ning Shu headed back to her bedroom and turned on her laptop. It was displaying the situation inside Ye Xi's room. Ye Xi was currently doing yoga inside her room.

Ning Shu started practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts, but soon she was interrupted by sounds from the laptop.

Jing Shaoze who had gone to work earlier had come back and entered Ye Xi's room. As of now, he was on top of Ye Xi.

Ye Xi sounded a little out of breath as she said, "Jing Shaoze, let's not do this after all. Can't we go with artificial insemination?"

Jing Shaoze's voice was very cold. "Of course this will come to a stop. It'll stop as soon as you get pregnant. Since you chose to become a surrogate mother, shouldn't you be able to endure anything for sake of money?"

"I... Please don't be like this..." Jing Shaoze cut her off before she could finish speaking.

Ning Shu watched as the two inside the room tumbled together passionately. Jing Shaoze was very wild so Ye Xi could barely take it.

Ni Jing had never seen Jing Shaoze like this. When Jing Shaoze was on the bed with Ni Jing, he was always very gentle.

Ni Jing had always thought that Jing Shaoze was simply a gentle person.

However, all men had the aggressive desire to conquer.

Ning Shu saved the video.

The two tumbled together several times during the course of this one night. Ning Shu yawned as she copied each video to the USB flash drive.

She even made sure that there were several copies so that if one was destroyed, there would still be another one.

Once it was finally over, Jing Shaoze put his clothes back on. As of now, Ye Xi was already so tired that she had fallen asleep.

As Jing Shaoze took in the sight of Ye Xi's appearance after his pampering, he couldn't help but reach out and touch her face. However, right afterwards, he snapped out of it. This was just a surrogate mother and he had his wife Ni Jing!

Jing Shaoze's expression was dazed and contained internal struggle. Afterwards, he roughly shook Ye Xi awake. Ye Xi looked confused in a very innocent way and looked towards Jing Shaoze in confusion. "What's wrong?"

When Jing Shaoze saw her like this, he became even more angry. He didn't know whether he was angry with Ye Xi or with himself.

Chapter 1257: Like a Little Boy

Ning Shu saved the videos, pulled out the USB and locked it in the drawer. Afterwards, she turned off the computer, yawned and lay down to sleep.

She heard footsteps, so she silently counted to three and heard the sound of the door open.

Then there was the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.

Ning Shu was really speechless. Jing Shaoze sure had a busy night life, moving from one woman's bed to another.

Jing Shaoze also seemed to enjoy this kind of life quite a lot. He would flirt with the surrogate mother that was standing nearby by shooting over a nefarious glance even while hugging his wife.

He switched roles way too smoothly, it was nearly seamlessly.

After showering, Jing Shaoze lay down next to Ning Shu and fell asleep. When Ning Shu turned around, she saw that Jing Shaoze had his back facing her and his breathing was slow and even. It was obvious that he had fallen asleep as soon as his head had touched the pillow.

In reality, Jing Shaoze and Ni Jing were already dreaming of different things while sharing the same bed.

Jing Shaoze said that he loved Ni Jing, but he was already captivated by Ye Xi. His feelings had already gone from pure physical attraction to emotional desire.

However, he was still lying to himself and wavering back and forth.

After waking up, Jing Shaoze was still gentle and considerate to Ning Shu like usual, so they seemed like a picture book happy couple.

Although Jing Shaoze was gentle, Ning Shu could sense that Jing Shaoze's attitude was starting to become perfunctory. He simply said halfhearted words in a gentle tone.

Ning Shu and Jing Shaoze went downstairs together. Jing Shaoze's mother was currently asking Ye Xi, "What's the matter? Why does your facial color look so bad? Are you not feeling well?"

Jing Shaoze's gaze immediately landed on Ye Xi. When he saw that Ye Xi's face was haggard and that she looked listless, he asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Immediately afterwards, Jing Shaoze realized that he was actually worried and his expression immediately became stern. He pulled back the chair heavily, causing the chair to make a harsh noise as it scraped across the floor.

He sat down and said coldly, "Since you're a surrogate mother, you should be taking care of your body at all times. During the time before you give birth to the child, your body doesn't belong to you. You're not allowed to appear in front of me in this sickly manner."

Ye Xi's gaze dimmed as she looked towards Jing Shaoze. Then she lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I understand."

Her body was aching all over so she really didn't feel well, but she was living under someone else's roof so she couldn't very well refuse to get up on time.

Ning Shu took in Jing Shaoze's awkward behavior. He clearly couldn't help worrying about Ye Xi, but the words that came out of his mouth were very unpleasant.

Ye Xi had obviously gone through a lot last night and barely slept at all. After being dragged along to do exercise all night last night, she still had to get up early in the morning the next day.

Jing Shaoze was very angry when he saw Ye Xi like this so as he ate breakfast, he jabbed his knife and fork down hard, making harsh, displeased sounds.

As he ate breakfast, he kept glancing at Ye Xi. When he saw that Ye Xi had her head lowered and was focused only on eating breakfast, he became even more angry. He slammed his knife and fork down on the table and spoke to his mother in a cold tone, "Mom, what kind of surrogate mother is this? With how listless she looks, how can the child possibly be born healthy?"

When Jing Shaoze's mother saw her son so irritated, her lips hooked. "She just didn't sleep well last night. Ye Xi's body is very healthy. What are you being so worried for?"

Ning Shu also looked at Jing Shaoze. "What are you being so worried for?"

"You're the greatest gentleman. How can you say something this harsh to Miss Ye?" Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze with a faint smile.

In front of the person he loved, in face of uncontrollable emotion, even the most gentlemanly man would become childish and mischievous. Just like a little boy, he would play tricks on the girl to attract the girl's attention.

This was what the current Jing Shaoze was like.

Chapter 1258: The Only Outsider in This Family

Ning Shu kept a gentle smile on her face. Ohoho, these two clearly already had feelings for each other, but were suppressing things due to external circumstances.

"It's all my fault. I'll definitely fix my health." Ye Xi hastily spoke up when she saw that the people sitting around the dining table were starting to argue.

"Alright, be quiet and just eat," said Jing Shaoze's father. He then glanced at his son. "What are you making such a ruckus for?"

Jing Shaoze's father held absolute authority in the Jing family. As soon as he spoke, no one else dared to speak. He was also an elegant and handsome man. Jing Shaoze had inherited his outstanding appearance from his father.

Jing Shaoze's father had silently approved of this surrogacy. If he hadn't, Jing Shaoze's mother wouldn't have dared to do this.

So it turned out that Ni Jing was the only outsider in this family. She had been so naïve and hadn't known anything.

Ning Shu pressed her lips together and ate with her head lowered. She already had a plan in mind.

Ning Shu disliked Jing Shaoze's mother quite a lot. As a fellow woman, why make things hard for another woman? She had found a mistress for her son in order to ruin the relationship between Jing Shaoze and Ni Jing.

Ning Shu even got the feeling that there was some great grudge between Jing Shaoze's mother and Ni Jing. Could it be because Ni Jing couldn't have a child?

However, the most disgusting one in this entire affair was Jing Shaoze. He said that he loved Ni Jing, but he cheated on her both emotionally and physically.

If he really loved Ni Jing, why would he sleep together with Ye Xi? He was having a child with some other woman behind his wife's back, yet he still had the shamelessness to say that he loved Ni Jing?

In any case, everyone here should prepare to suffer.

After breakfast, Jing Shaoze kept trying to talk to Ye Xi, but Ye Xi headed right back to her room to rest. Since so many people were looking, he couldn't very well go directly to Ye Xi's room.

So Jing Shaoze had a horrible expression on his face as he headed to work, like someone owed him money.

Ning Shu said to Jing Shaoze's mother, "When can Miss Ye go through the operation? I think it'd be better if we made it sooner. The longer Miss Ye stays in our house, the more it'll ruin her reputation."

Jing Shaoze's mother frowned. "Let's wait awhile longer."

Ning Shu didn't ask again. Jing Shaoze's mother was probably waiting for Ye Xi to become pregnant naturally and give birth to an heir for the Jing family.

"I'm going to go talk to Ye Xi. She's not feeling well, so I'm going to see if she needs to go to the hospital." Jing Shaoze's mother headed to Ye Xi's room.

Ning Shu quickly went upstairs and opened the computer. Jing Shaoze's mother and Ye Xi appeared on the screen.

Ye Xi was sitting on the bed and Jing Shaoze's mother was standing beside the bed as she asked, "How are you feeling? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Ye Xi's face was a little red as she shook her head and said, "I'm fine, I'm just too tired."

An expression of realization appeared on Jing Shaoze's mother's face and she said, "You should hurry and get pregnant."

Ye Xi's face instantly flushed red, to the point that even her neck was pink. She whispered, "Mrs. Jing, I'll try my best, but... can I get artificial insemination? This isn't really good."

Jing Shaoze's mother said mildly, "What's not good about it? Your duty is to give birth to the successor of the Jing family. Furthermore, it must be a healthy successor."

"But what about Ni Jing?" A trace of guilt appeared on Ye Xi's face. "If she found out, she wouldn't be able to bear it."

Ye Xi looked towards Jing Shaoze's mother. "Is this really okay?"

If it weren't for the fact that her father's company was facing a severe crisis, there was no way she would become a surrogate mother. She was giving birth to a child for someone else before she even got married and this child, in the future, would have no blood relationship with her.

Chapter 1259: Born of Love, Not Resentment

Ye Xi had originally thought that it was already unbearable pain to have to become a surrogate, she had never imagined that there would be something even more shameful waiting for her.

Mrs. Jing wanted her to get pregnant naturally with Jing Shaoze, then give birth to the successor of the Jing family.

"Ni Jing is Jing Shaoze's actual wife. The child Jing Shaoze and I make won't be legitimate. I..." Ye Xi looked a little sad. The most important part was that once she gave birth to this child, this child would have nothing to do with her anymore.

Jing Shaoze's mother pressed her lips together, then said, "The Jing family had married a sick woman. If we also end up with a sick child, the Jing family would be the laughingstock of upper class society! You only need to understand your own responsibilities. If you give birth to a child, your father's company will be fine and your child will be the future successor of the Jing family."

"But this is my child." Ye Xi pressed her lips together tightly, her face pale.

Jing Shaoze's mother looked displeased. "Since you've taken the money, you need to do your job. Ni Jing's mother's family is quite wealthy. Your child will have a great maternal family and also the Jing family, so he'll have a bright future ahead of him. Meanwhile, your duty is simply to not appear in front of this child."

Ye Xi's eyes reddened and tears overflowed.

When Jing Shaoze's mother saw Ye Xi like this, she said mildly, "If you regret things now, you can still turn back. However, there is no way I'll support your family for free."

Ye Xi didn't speak. As of now, she had already lost her chastity and without funds from the Jing family, her father's company would go bankrupt.

"Since you've decided to become a surrogate mother, what you should be doing now is making sure to take good care of your own body. In addition to the turnover money for your father's company, I'll give you an extra five million for nutrition expenses."

Jing Shaoze's mother was very generous. Ye Xi didn't really want to accept such alms from Jing Shaoze's mother, but the things she was doing now already made others look down on her.

Refusing only made her seem pretentious.

Jing Shaoze's mother sat down by the bed and patted Ye Xi's hand as she said, "Actually, I really like you. You're very filial and Shaoze also likes you a lot. Although Shaoze's gentle, he's a very decisive person. No one can force him to do anything."

"Back then, he was determined to marry the Ni family's daughter who was born with heart disease." As Jing Shaoze's mother talked about Ni Jing, her tone became conspicuously worse. It was clear that she didn't like Ni Jing.

"The fact that he's willing to let you get pregnant naturally shows that he doesn't actually dislike you. It's also good for the child if his biological father and mother love each other," said Jing Shaoze's mother softly. "I'd like my grandson to be born because of love, not resentment."

"Believe me, I know my son. He does like you. Compared to looking so worried every day like this, why not focus on taking good care of your body? This child is also your child. You need to be responsible for your child." Jing Shaoze's mother perfectly grasped the method of using both carrot and stick.

Ye Xi didn't really believe what Jing Shaoze's mother said about Jing Shaoze liking her. Jing Shaoze acted like he was very disgusted with her and was always mocking her. How could he possibly like her?

The one he liked was his wife. He was always gentle and considerate towards her, and when he look towards her, his expression was filled with tenderness. He always carefully cherished his wife. That was what actual love was.

Furthermore, Jing Shaoze was always reminding her that she wasn't allowed to ruin their relationship.

Ye Xi couldn't really understand it. He was clearly such an elegant and noble man, so why was he so mean and evil in front of her? Every time Jing Shaoze spoke to her, she would feel like a knife was cutting up her heart.

She was a lowly, disgusting surrogate mother. She could bear with any insult as long as she could save her father's company.

Ye Xi tenaciously endured all of Jing Shaoze's insults and humiliation.

However, she wasn't aware that the more stubborn she was, the more Jing Shaoze wanted to humiliate her. He subconsciously wanted to conquer her.

He wanted to see this stubborn woman admit defeat.

Ning Shu sat in front of the computer and listened to this entire conversation. She sneered. Jing Shaoze's mother had already made such a solemn guarantee about things before a trace of the child even showed up. It was a question whether a child could even be made at this point.

Ning Shu saved the video of this conversation.

Chapter 1260: A Transnational Collaboration Case

From the beginning to the end, Ye Xi acted so innocent, so much like she was forced.

Haha, every woman who became a mistress was forced to do so because of reasons outside of their control. It was always because they had difficulties that caused them to have no other choice.

So it turned out that Jing Shaoze's mother thought of Ni Jing as a disgrace. She was having her son get together with another woman, perhaps to get revenge on Ni Jing.

She probably never considered the fact that if Ni Jing found out about this and couldn't take it, she might collapse to the ground with a heart attack.

If she was slightly more malicious, perhaps she had been hoping for Ni Jing to hurry and die.

Jing Shaoze had forgotten his promises and responsibility to Ni Jing. When he was in bed with Ye Xi, he even told himself that he was just making use of a commodity, that it had nothing to do with love.

Ning Shu lifted her eyebrows. This family!

If a woman couldn't have children, she lost even her most basic value. In the eyes of the Jing family, the original host was just an existence that could not give birth who could also breathe her last at any moment.

As Ning Shu turned off the computer, her cell phone rang. She answered the phone as she hit record.

Jing Shaoze's gentle voice came from the phone.

"Jingjing, the company has a transnational collaboration case so I might not be home for a couple days."

Ning Shu: _

If I actually believed you, then my brain's definitely been fried.

Ning Shu curled her lips in disdain and asked expressionlessly, "How long will this case take?"

"If it's fast, probably half a month. If it's slow, perhaps over a month. I'll make sure to find time to come back and see you." Jing Shaoze consoled Ning Shu. "You should be careful at home. Make sure to take medicine whenever you feel uncomfortable, alright?"

"I got it," said Ning Shu mildly.

"Then I'm going to go work. Jingjing, I love you." Jing Shaoze then hung up.

Ning Shu looked towards the recorded file on the phone and sneered. Would he actually be able to not come back for an entire half a month?

Since Jing Shaoze wasn't home, Ning Shu rarely went downstairs. She only went downstairs for meals.

Jing Shaoze's mother barely talked to Ning Shu, but they were very polite to each other. Ning Shu was aware that Jing Shaoze's mother hated her.

This time, when she went downstairs to get water, she saw that the entire villa was empty. She asked Aunt Li, one of the servants, "Where's Mother?"

Aunt Li said, "The madam took Miss Ye out shopping and said that she wouldn't be back tonight since she had to attend a dinner party."

These two were sure close. It almost seemed like they were the actual close mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

She had Aunt Li pour her a glass of water, then went back upstairs.

She sat down on the bed to practice the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. The laptop in front of her was on but Ye Xi's room was empty.

She practiced for a long time until there came a knock on the door. She stopped practicing and opened her eyes. It was already dark outside.

Aunt Li called Ning Shu downstairs for dinner. She was the only one in the house and so she sat alone at the dinner table. After enjoying the meal at her leisure, she went back upstairs.

?Chapter 1261: Supposed to be Busy with a Transnational Collaboration Case

Ning Shu practiced the Unsurpassable Martial Arts nonstop. The fact that Jing Shaoze wasn't coming back just gave her more time to practice. Although the effect of practicing it was very minimal, at least it made it so her heart didn't feel as stiff.

Even if it was only a psychological effect, it was still good.

After training for a while, sounds came from the computer. Ning Shu opened her eyes and saw that Jing Shaoze, who was supposed to be busy with a transnational collaboration case at the company, had appeared in Ye Xi's room.

Jing Shaoze turned on the light but didn't see Ye Xi, so his facial color worsen a little. He then sat on the sofa to wait for Ye Xi to come back.

It was only now that he realized he didn't have Ye Xi's phone number, so he had no way of contacting her.

This made Jing Shaoze very annoyed. It felt like this woman had left his control.

Jing Shaoze wanted to go upstairs and ask Ning Shu where Ye Xi had gone, but he had said earlier today that he wouldn't be home for a couple days. It didn't seem to be a good idea to appear in front of her again like this.

Jing Shaoze considered things, then went into the bathroom to shower.

Ning Shu watched as Jing Shaoze walked around in Ye Xi's room like it was his own and curled her lips in disdain. Jing Shaoze sure was hard-working. So in the end, was he trying to get Ye Xi pregnant as soon as possible or was he just infatuated with Ye Xi's body?

Soon, Jing Shaoze came out with a towel wrapped around his waist. The towel only covered the key parts and fully revealed his muscular and sexy body.

Jing Shaoze lay down on the bed to wait for Ye Xi to come back.

At about ten in the evening, Ye Xi came back from the dinner party that Jing Shaoze's mother had taken her to. When she walked into her room, she immediately saw that Jing Shaoze was lying on her bed.

He wasn't even wearing clothes. The bath towel had slipped slightly, revealing his V-line. Ye Xi was so startled that she almost screamed.

When Jing Shaoze saw Ye Xi, his eyes filled with surprise. Ye Xi was wearing an evening gown that highlighted her slim figure and a thin necklace that showed off her beautiful slender neck while drawing attention to her sexy collarbones.

Right afterwards, Jing Shaoze's facial color darkened and he asked coldly, "Who were you planning on seducing with this outfit?"

Ye Xixi pressed her lips together and said stubbornly, "How I dressed is my own business. I'm a little tired. Please leave."

"Leave? You couldn't have forgotten your job, right? Do you think that I want to touch you? As soon as you get pregnant, my job will finally be done," said Jing Shaoze in a cold tone that was filled with mocking.

Ye Xi's face paled and she gripped her skirt tightly. Finally, she let go weakly. How she wished that she could say please don't hurt me anymore!

"I'm really tired today. Can we forget it for today?" asked Ye Xi.

Jing Shaoze angrily got up from the bed and grabbed Ye Xi's arm, then threw her to the bed. He leaned over her and said, "You hate seeing me this much? Is it because you've succeeded in seducing someone else, so now you can get free from me? "

Ye Xi was flustered when Jing Shaoze's manly scent enveloped her. The scent left after the shower mixed with his natural manly scent, causing Ye Xi to stiffen even as her face flushed.

When Jing Shaoze saw her like this, his heart couldn't help but soften and he leaned over to kiss her lips.

Ning Shu smacked her lips as she watched this spicy development. They sure knew how to play. They were on the ground, on the sofa, on the wall, the balcony, all while saying all kinds of things that made people blush and their hearts pound.

Any random video from this collection was like a Japanese AV.

The feeling that Jing Shaoze gave Ning Shu was that he had never seen a woman in his life. No, actually, more like he had never enjoyed himself this much before in his life.

Ning Shu couldn't really hold up anymore. After she woke up from her nap, the two were finally finished. Jing Shaoze had taken a shower and was putting on his clothes as he looked towards Ye Xi who had fallen deep asleep on the bed.

He walked to the bed and reached out to stroke Ye Xi's face. His gaze was filled with a tenderness that he himself wasn't even aware of. Afterwards, he turned off the lights, closed the door, and left.

Ning Shu made a copy of today's video. Inwardly, she scoffed.

Chapter 1262: If Only She Could Share This Torrent

She just continued to watch them silently, and as the authentic wife, witness their oh so touching romance.

As of now, Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi probably had mutual feelings for each other.

During this period of time, Jing Shaoze only came back at night and it was always rather late in the night. He wouldn't even turn on the lights and would sneak straight into Ye Xi's room.

Then they'd start another round of vigorous exercise and he'd leave again before dawn.

Sometimes Jing Shaoze would even sleep for a bit while hugging Ye Xi.

Ning Shu discovered that these videos took up way too much space and memory, so she had no choice but to compress them. What to do? She really wanted to seed and share these files.

Her hands itched so much!

Jing Shaoze would occasionally come back to get clean clothes. Whenever he saw Ning Shu, his gaze would be filled with gentle doting. He'd brush his lips against Ning Shu's forehead, then leave again with his suitcase.

However, at night he'd come back to sleep with Ye Xi.

Jing Shaoze was very vigilant. When he drove back, he wouldn't drive up to the gate of the villa and would park his car at the side of the road. The entire family was asleep by midnight so it was a very good time for having an affair.

Ning Shu just acted like she didn't know anything. They could just do whatever they wanted to.

Jing Shaoze's mother had been staring at Ye Xi's stomach for nearly two months. If a gaze could drill, her gaze would have already drilled a hole through Ye Xi's stomach. Why hadn't there been any signs yet?

Jing Shaoze's mother had no choice but to take Ye Xi to the hospital for an exam. However, the exam showed that everything was normal.

If everything was normal, why hadn't she gotten pregnant?

Could it be that it wasn't time yet?

Jing Shaoze's mother asked the nutritionist to prepare food for Ye Xi that would make it easier for her to get pregnant. She wanted Ye Xi to get pregnant as quickly as possible.

Ning Shu naturally noticed Jing Shaoze's mother's impatience, so she said, "Mother, when will Miss Ye be able to have the operation?"

Jing Shaoze's mother said in an annoyed tone, "Soon. The doctor said that Ye Xi still needs to prepare her body for a while longer."

Jing Shaoze's mother wanted Ye Xi to conceive naturally. She didn't have any faith in the medical technology of transferring the embryo to the uterus. What if the child ended up with a defect?

The Jing family already had a daughter-in-law with heart disease, they couldn't have a defective child on top of that! Otherwise she really wouldn't be able to keep her head up in front of the other noble ladies.

The Jing family had plenty of money so it was easy for them to get a child that was fertilized and born the natural way.

Ning Shu lifted her brows and asked, "How long will we have to wait?"

Jing Shaoze's mother said, "The child will only be healthy if we put in all the necessary work. Spending a little more time on this will pay in the long run."

Ye Xi's face filled with guilt and she said to Jing Shaoze's mother, "It's all because of me."

Ye Xi was apologizing for not having gotten pregnant. She was suddenly feeling the pressure and she quickly snuck a glance at Ning Shu. She couldn't imagine how much pressure Jing Shaoze's wife had to endure during these past five years without a child.

Ning Shu lifted her brows and asked in confusion, "Why are you apologizing?"

"I..." Ye Xi froze, then lowered her head, not daring to look at Ning Shu.

Whenever she was facing Jing Shaoze's wife, she felt guilty and very uneasy, but whenever she was with Jing Shaoze, she would forget about Ni Jing's existence.

She felt like she had stolen the sweetness that belonged to Ni Jing and Jing Shaoze.

Chapter 1263: Ambitious Goal

Ning Shu took in Ye Xi's expression of struggle and unease. Ye Xi clearly knew that what she was doing was wrong, but she was still addicted to this kind of love and desire.

Later, when Ni Jing died, Ye Xi was able to put down this psychological burden and stay with Jing Shaoze.

Besides, it was also for the sake of giving their child a happy family.

"Alright, let's wait for another two months," said Jing Shaoze's mother. "Let Ye Xi prepare for another two months."

Ning Shu didn't speak. Jing Shaoze's mother was doing all she could to allow Ye Xi to get pregnant naturally.

Ning Shu could sense that her mother-in-law was a little impatient now, and she was even a bit angry with Ye Xi.

Ye Xi became even more uneasy. She was worried that Jing Shaoze's mother would get angry and withdraw her investment money.

Ning Shu smiled. Even if they wanted Ye Xi to get pregnant, things still depended on whether or not they had that ability.

Ye Xi now urgently wanted to get pregnant. When Jing Shaoze came into her room that night, she was very proactive. Jing Shaoze felt more pleasure than he ever had before.

Even his soul seemed to be shaking from the pleasure.

Each time they finished, Ye Xi would lift her hips.

Jing Shaoze hugged Ye Xi as he asked, "What are you doing?"

"I want to get pregnant." Ye Xi's voice was trembling slightly. Jing Shaoze's lips hooked. "You want to have my baby this much?"

Jing Shaoze then said nefariously, "But I don't want to let you go yet. What am I supposed to do if you get pregnant?"

Ye Xi flushed as her heart filled with slight sweetness. She silently prayed that God would forgive her for her greediness. She only desired this bit of time with him before dawn.

During the night, she could forget that the man holding her was someone else's husband. However, as soon as dawn came, this man would leave her room and they would no longer have anything to do with each other.

She was a surrogate mother, and he had a wife that he loved.

Ye Xi hugged Jing Shaoze and pressed her face against his chest. "But your mother's impatient now. She wants me to give birth to a successor as soon as possible."

"There's no need to rush about having a baby." Jing Shaoze hugged Ye Xi and slowly started moving again.

Ning Shu was sitting on the bed and yawned as she saved this video. They seriously had a lot of energy.

She rubbed her eyes, then moved the computer to the side to lie down. They seriously had great physical strength. There was no way she'd stayed up all night with them.

She had originally decided on the ambitious goal of recording every instance of Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi being together and sorting them according to the date and time. That way, these things could serve as evidence.

But...

These two sure were passionate on the bed. It felt like Jing Shaoze was trying to vent all his energy on Ye Xi.

Perhaps it was because he had to endure way too much while he was with Ni Jing. When he was with Ni Jing, he always had to be slow and gentle. There was no way he could vent himself carefreely like this.

Ning Shu planned to make a trip to the hospital. Back then, when the family first decided to find a surrogate, Ni Jing and Jing Shaoze had gone to the hospital to freeze their eggs and sperm.

When she got to the hospital, she told the doctor that she wanted to see Jing Shaoze's sperm and gave the doctor some money.

The doctor got the test tube from the freezer and handed it to Ning Shu. "See, it's being stored perfectly well. When the time comes, it will definitely be able to fertilize the egg."

"Let me see?" Ning Shu took the test tube. It had been kept in the freezer at -190 degrees Celsius so it had already turned into a block of ice. Right now, it was emitting white steam.

Ning Shu took off the lid and took advantage of a moment when the doctor wasn't paying attention to pull out a bottle from her pocket and add some mercury into the test tube. Afterwards, she put the lid back on and asked, "Where do I put it?"

"Your husband's name is here, so right here," said the doctor.

Chapter 1264: Did Something Happen with Jing Shaoze

Ning Shu put the test tube back with a faint smile.

"If you guys want to have a child, you guys should do it soon. The more time that passes, the lower the sperm activity will be."

"I understand." Ning Shu nodded.

After she finished dealing with this issue, she felt like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. Next, she took a trip to visit Ni Jing's maternal family.

The Ni family parents loved Ni Jing a lot. Even after Ni Jing had been married for several years, they still hadn't given up on finding a matching heart for her.

After they finally managed to find a heart though, the surgery ended up failing.

Ning Shu's visit made the Ni family parents very happy. They had Ni Jing stay for lunch and even called her older brother back for lunch.

Due to practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts, Ning Shu's facial color was better and her appetite had increased a lot. The Ni family parents were very happy and kept getting more food for Ning Shu.

"Did the Jing family brat bully you?" asked Father Ni. "If he dared to bully you, I'll go hunt him down right now!"

Ning Shu smiled as she said, "No."

"Really? I heard that your mother-in-law went and found a surrogate mother." Mother Ni clearly didn't believe her. She looked towards her and said, "Tell Mom the truth."

Mother Ni was a noblewoman who attended all sorts of banquets so anything that happened among the upper class would reach her ears. She looked towards Ning Shu with heartache. "Jingjing, tell Mom the truth."

"We are planning to have a surrogacy. I've been married to Jing Shaoze for nearly five years and we haven't had any children. I do feel a little bad about that." Ning Shu continued eating as she said, "Jing Shaoze is the only son of the Jing family so he has to have a successor."

"Jing Shaoze?" Ni Jing's older brother, Ni Yan, looked at Ning Shu and said, "Has something happened with Jing Shaoze? You always used to call him Big Brother Shaoze, but now you're calling him Jing Shaoze."

Ning Shu: ...

"Nothing happened." They could spot an issue just based on the way she referred to him?

Ni Yan glanced at Ning Shu and said, "If anything happens, just come back home. The Ni family isn't afraid of the Jing family, so there's no need for you to silently endure things."

"Thank you, Big Brother," said Ning Shu. Then she changed the topic and asked, "So, when will you be able to find me a sister-in-law?"

"Girl, don't shift the fire to me!" Ni Yan shot Ning Shu a peeved look.

Ning Shu prepared to head back after lunch. Father Ni took out a bank card and gave it to Ning Shu as he said, "Take this. We'll use our own money, so you don't need to be humble in front of the Jing family."

The Ni family was worried that Ning Shu would have to suffer grievances due to the matters involving the surrogacy.

"Thank you, Dad." Ning Shu accepted the bank card. There was no need to be polite in front of family. Refusing this would just make them worry more.

"Call us if anything happens. If we can't handle it, then just call your brother," exhorted Mother Ni.

Ning Shu nodded nonstop. The Ni family parents continued exhorting for a good while longer before they were finally willing to let her go.

Ning Shu went back to the Jing family's villa. The moment she walked into the living room, she saw Jing Shaoze sitting on a chair by the table and holding Ye Xi's wrist. Ye Xi was holding a spoon in her hand.

Jing Shaoze was eating from the spoon, but his gaze was fixated on Ye Xi.

It looked like Jing Shaoze had grabbed Ye Xi's hand and asked her to feed him.

What an ambiguous setup. Ye Xi was blushing. She was obviously extremely embarrassed from being teased by Jing Shaoze like this.

Ning Shu watched these two in silence.

"Pretty tasty. Feed me some more." Jing Shaoze lifted his eyebrows in a demonically charming manner. He grabbed Ye Xi's wrist and guided it towards the plate.

"Let go of me," said Ye Xi while blushing. "It'd be bad if someone saw."

Jing Shaoze held Ye Xi's wrist steady and fed himself a spoonful of rice. Then he took the spoon from her hand and scooped up some of the rice to feed her, but she refused to eat it.

Jing Shaoze lifted his eyebrows and said, "If you don't want to eat, then I'll be eating. However, what I want to eat isn't rice, it's you."

Ye Xi's face flushed red and she opened her mouth to take a bite from the spoon.

"Ahem..." Ning Shu coughed to interrupt their sweet feeding session.

When Jing Shaoze turned around and saw Ning Shu, he reacted like he had gotten scalded and immediately shook off Ye Xi's hand. Ye Xi's expression dimmed and she lowered her head silently.

Jing Shaoze's expression was very unnatural. He stood up and walked to Ning Shu as he asked warmly, "Where have you been? You headed outside on such a hot day, it must have been very uncomfortable. Have you eaten yet? I'll go make you some noodles. Are you thirsty? Want me to get you a glass of water? "

Jing Shaoze immediately started chattering to divert Ning Shu's attention. Ning Shu said lightly, "I went home to visit, so I already ate."

Jing Shaoze took Ning Shu's hand. "Why didn't you tell me that you were going back home? I would have gone with you. I get so worried whenever you go out alone."

Ning Shu inwardly rolled her eyes. Worried? They looked like they were having a great time feeding each other just now. She hadn't been able to spot a single trace of worry on his face.

Ning Shu smiled gently and said, "I know my own health condition, so it's fine."

"You haven't eaten yet?" Ning Shu glanced at the eight treasures porridge on the table. It had been simmered until it was very thick and the color was beautiful.

"I just finished eating." Jing Shaoze lifted his bowl. "Jingjing, do you want to have a little?"

"Didn't you say that you were busy with a transnational collaboration case? How come you're suddenly back?" Ning Shu glanced at Ye Xi, who was sitting at the side with her head lowered.

Jing Shaoze said warmly, "I've already finished dealing with that, so now I have plenty of time to keep you company." As Jing Shaoze spoke, he took Ning Shu's hand.

"We haven't been out for a long time. The weather is so hot now, so let's visit a resort." Jing Shaoze started making various promises to divert Ning Shu's attention.

In general, whenever a guy did something he felt guilty about, he would become especially attentive. Jing Shaoze's behavior fit that model perfectly.

"Alright," said Ning Shu with a smile on her face. She glanced at Ye Xi and said, "Miss Ye should come as well. This resort is quite nice."

"Thanks," said Ye Xi.

Ning Shu rubbed her forehead. "I'm going to head up and go rest."

Jing Shaoze breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ok, then go rest."

Jing Shaoze was relieved to see that Ning Shu didn't make a ruckus. If she really had seen something, her heart definitely wouldn't be able to bear it and there would definitely be a huge scene.

There was no way she would react calmly like the way she had just now.

Jing Shaoze didn't even know what was going on with himself. He was getting involved with Ye Xi during the day and was almost caught by Ni Jing. It was like he got possessed and lost track of himself.

After Ning Shu went upstairs, Jing Shaoze looked towards Ye Xi. Ye Xi lifted her head to meet his gaze. Jing Shaoze said with a sneer, "You're sure skilled."

"I don't know what you're talking about?" said Ye Xi with an expression of innocent confusion.

"Tsk..." Jing Shaoze grabbed Ye Xi's arm and said, "You were seducing me during the day so that I would get close to you. Jingjing even almost caught us. You're sure good at seducing men."

Ye Xi's expression was filled with stubbornness and also ridicule. "Did I tell you to grab my hand? You were the one that started it. Let go."

Chapter 1266: Kill With Concern

"You... Woman, would it kill you not to talk back to me?" asked Jing Shaoze angrily. His expression turned cold. "I'm warning you, you'd better not tell Jingjing about this. If anything happens to Jingjing, I won't let you off."

Ye Xi's expression dimmed and her lips trembled. "I'll also warn you. If you act this rude towards me again, I'll tell Ni Jing about everything."

"You..." Jing Shaoze's pupils dilated. "If you have the guts, you can try."

Ning Shu stood at the stairway and looked down. She saw that the two were super close to each other even when they were arguing. Jing Shaoze was practically hugging Ye Xi.

Go on! Have at it!

However, how was this a fight at all? It was obviously just them flirting.

Ning Shu turned and headed back to her bedroom. She locked the door, then fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

She didn't know how long she had slept for but she was eventually shaken awake. She felt like her bones were about to scatter from all the shaking. Jing Shaoze was roaring in her ear, "Jingjing, wake up! Wake up!"

He kept shaking her while shouting over and over again. Ning Shu felt like she was about to have a heart attack. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Jing Shaoze's face that was twisted with worry.

"Jingjing, are you alright?" Jing Shaoze looked at Ning Shu with an anxious expression.

Ning Shu had to suppress the urge to kick him. "What's wrong?"

"Why did you lock the door? You scared me to death! Jingjing, never scare me like this again," said Jing Shaoze as he held her shoulders and shook her. "Promise me, don't ever scare me like this again."

Ning Shu: F*cking stop shaking me already!

You actually hope for me to die, don't you!?

"I'm fine. I just accidently forgot and locked it." Ning Shu peeled Jing Shaoze's hands off her shoulders. It was summer, so her clothes were very thin, causing Jing Shaoze's grip on her shoulders to be seriously painful.

Ning Shu really suspected that Jing Shaoze wanted to kill his wife. On the surface he acted like he cared about her so much, but he didn't hold back at all when he grabbed her. It felt like he had practically been about to dislocate her arm.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you. I was just so worried." Jing Shaoze looked at Ning Shu. "You locked yourself in the room so I thought that something had happened. Jingjing, don't ever do this again."

Ning Shu nodded without saying anything. Jing Shaoze looked at Ning Shu asked probingly, "Jingjing, are you unhappy about something? If there's anything, just tell me. Don't hold it all in. It's not good for your health."

Ning Shu could hear the probing in Jing Shaoze's tone. He was trying to figure out whether she knew about his relationship with Ye Xi.

Ning Shu smiled gently and relaxed her expression. There wasn't a trace of depression on her face. "Nothing happened. Big Brother Shaoze, did something happen?"

Jing Shaoze scanned Ning Shu's face, then finally said with a soft smile, "Jingjing, I'm just worried about you. I've been busy with things at the company this entire time so I was just worried that you'd be angry."

"If you're angry, you can just hit me. Don't keep it bottled up inside your heart." As Jing Shaoze spoke, he grabbed Ning Shu's hand and placed it on his face.

Ning Shu instantly felt his soft and satiny skin. A man actually had skin this good? Ning Shu smiled gently as she took advantage of this opportunity to pinch Jing Shaoze's face. She pinched really hard so Jing Shaoze cried out in pain.

"Sorry, I pinched too hard." Ning Shu quickly retracted back her hand. "I'm so bad at controlling my strength."

Jing Shaoze rubbed his face while comforting Ning Shu. "It's fine, it didn't hurt."

It left a bright red mark, so how could it not hurt?

He was even able to endure this. He was pretty good.

Chapter 1267: Sluts were Seriously Pretentious

Jing Shaoze rubbed his face. His face was stinging with pain, but he just looked towards Ning Shu with a helpless and indulgent expression. "Alright, it's time for dinner. Let's go."

Ning Shu lifted the blanket aside and got ready to get out of bed. Jing Shaoze squatted down and helped Ning Shu put her slippers on. His expression was gentle as he did these considerate things.

How did Jing Shaoze end up with such a terrible split personality disorder? He acted one way in front of her, and acted a completely different way in front of Ye Xi.

Was there any meaning to this?

Ning Shu and Jing Shaoze went downstairs to have dinner. Jing Shaoze's parents were already there and with Ye Xi added on, there were five people at the table.

No one talked at the table, so there was only the faint sound of chewing. Ning Shu glanced at Ye Xi. Ye Xi had her head lowered as she ate the nutritious meal provided by the nutritionist.

Jing Shaoze was getting food for Ning Shu, but he also snuck glances over at Ye Xi. Whenever Ye Xi accidently met Jing Shaoze's gaze, she would immediately lower her head again. Her head hung down so low that her chin was about to hit her chest.

Ning Shu ignored their flirting and just focused on eating. The Jing family was a wealthy family so their food was really quite delicious.

"There's something I need to say," said Jing Shaoze's mother as she set down her chopsticks.

"What is it?" asked Jing Shaoze.

Jing Shaoze's mother glanced at Ye Xi, then turned to Jing Shaoze's father and said, "I want Ye Xi to go to work at the company."

Ye Xi looked towards Jing Shaoze's mother in surprise. She wanted her to work at the company?

Ye Xi then looked towards Jing Shaoze and Jing Shaoze also looked towards her so their gazes collided.

Ning Shu raised her eyebrows as she asked, "Why do you want to send Miss Ye to the company? Isn't Miss Ye's job to prepare her body in order to have a baby?"

Jing Shaoze's mother said, "Ye Xi looks listless staying at home all day, so I feel like it's better for her to go to work. It also serves as exercise and is way better than just staying at home."

"I won't agree to it." Jing Shaoze set down his chopsticks heavily with a displeased expression. "I don't want to see her. I already see her at home and now I have to see her when I'm at the company as well?"

Ye Xi lowered her head and used her chopsticks to poke at the food inside her bowl. She looked very wronged and pitiful. Jing Shaoze shot a glower at her. When he saw her like this, his facial color became even worse.

It was hard to tell if he was angry with himself or with Ye Xi.

Ning Shu's lips twitched. He was definitely overjoyed right now, but he insisted on saying that he wouldn't agree to it. Sluts were seriously pretentious.

"In any case, I won't agree to this woman working at the company," said Jing Shaoze. "She doesn't even look like she knows how to do anything."

"No way, Ye Xi has to go work at the company!" said Jing Shaoze's mother in a fluster. When she saw that everyone at the dinner table was looking at her in surprise, she coughed and said, "I mean, Ye Xi shouldn't stay at home all day. It's better for her to go out and walk around. Besides, we can't give her those millions of dollars for free. It'd be good to have her work a little. Everything is for the sake of allowing Ye Xi to give birth to a healthy child."

"I can tell that Ye Xi is very reserved in this house. We should let her go help out at the company," said Jing Shaoze's mother.

Ning Shu inwardly sneered, then said lightly, "There's a lot of radiation in the office with all the printers and computers. It's actually not that good for Miss Ye's health. Why do you insist on having Miss Ye to work at the company?"

"If Miss Ye isn't comfortable here, we can get a new house for her to live in so that she can prepare her body there," said Ning Shu in a very understanding tone.

Ye Xi set down her fork and said, "I'm willing to go work at the company. I'm willing to work and pay back the money with my own effort."

Ning Shu calmly looked towards Jing Shaoze's mother. "So then, Mom, what kind of work would you arrange for Miss Ye?"

"How about being a secretary?" suggested Jing Shaoze's mother.

Jing Shaoze's secretary? Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze's mother indifferently. She really was a pimp. She was using every single method she could come up with to get Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi alone with each other so that Ye Xi could get pregnant.

Chapter 1268: Why are You Staring at Me?

Ning Shu continued to smile gently as she looked towards Jing Shaoze's mother. I sincerely hope you also get to encounter a deeply loving and innocent mistress like Ye Xi. I hope your husband also gets to find such a naive and perfect mistress.

When Jing Shaoze's mother saw Ning Shu staring at her, she asked, "Jingjing, you don't approve of it?"

"How could that be?" Ning Shu said with a smile, "I agree with everything you say, Mother-in-law."

Jing Shaoze's mother finally nodded with satisfaction, then she said to Jing Shaoze, "Take Ye Xi with you when you go to work tomorrow. The two of you are going the same way anyways."

"They don't have to go together," said Jing Shaoze's father. Jing Shaoze's father glanced at Ning Shu, then said, "Shaoze is a married man. It's bad for his reputation if he heads to the company sharing a car with another woman, and it's also bad for the image of the entire company."

Jing Shaoze's mother looked a little unhappy, but she didn't dare to contradict Jing Shaoze's father.

After supper, Jing Shaoze went on a walk with Ning Shu. Ning Shu saw that Jing Shaoze looked very happy. It was clear that he was very excited to be able to go to work with Ye Xi.

Even though he was walking with her right now, his thoughts were obviously somewhere quite far away.

Ning Shu resisted the impulse to kick Jing Shaoze and said with a soft smile, "Let's head back. I'm a little tired."

"Alright," replied Jing Shaoze immediately and he turned to head back to the house. Ning Shu watched as Jing Shaoze hurried back to the house. This was all because Ye Xi was in the house.

As of now, Jing Shaoze didn't even want to keep up the most basic parts of the facade. When he was like this, of course it had made Ni Jing want to take things out on Ye Xi.

She would pick faults with Ye Xi all the time and treat Ye Xi like a servant, making Ye Xi serve tea and pour water. If the tea was too hot, she'd splash it on Ye Xi's face. If it was too cold, she'd fling it on Ye Xi's torso.

Ye Xi always endured it with strong stubbornness.

But what Ni Jing did only attracted Jing Shaoze's disgust and made him even more protective of Ye Xi. He had even pointed at Ni Jing and said, "Jingjing, you've changed. How did you end up becoming so malicious?"

But hadn't Jing Shaoze, this hypocrite, also changed? He was no longer the man Ni Jing once knew.

He was the one who had stopped being faithful, and he even stopped upholding his responsibility as a husband.

There was no right or wrong and love, only whether or not there was love.

Eff your fr*cking love!

Ning Shu felt like every transmigration challenged her view of the world.

Would you f*cking die without love? Then you guys should just go die.

It was probably because there would be a lot of time to spend with Ye Xi tomorrow, because Jing Shaoze didn't sneak into Ye Xi's room at night today.

However, he was in very high spirits. When he saw Ning Shu staring at him, he smiled. This smile was different from his usual gentle smile.

One could really feel how sincerely happy Jing Shaoze was.

"Jingjing, why are you staring at me like this?" Jing Shaoze walked to Ning Shu and kissed her forehead gently. It was just a soft touch. He then reached out with his fair jade-like fingers to unbutton her pajamas.

Ning Shu: _

"I'm not feeling well today. My heart feels stuffy." Ning Shu touched her chest.

Jing Shaoze secretly sighed with relief. "Alright, then let's go to sleep early."

When Ning Shu saw that expression on his face as if he had just escaped a disaster, she practically didn't know what to say.

Chapter 1269: All For a Grandchild

Jing Shaoze wanted to cover up his strange manner with the usual way husband and wife communicated. However, he was actually relieved after Ning Shu rejected him.

After getting a taste of Ye Xi, Jing Shaoze didn't feel like he could endure this kind of gentle and apprehensive way of intercourse anymore. He always had to pay attention to whether the person beneath him was alright or not, and whether or not he was going too hard.

What pleasure was there in that? There was no excitement at all.

He never thought this way before, but now he had experienced another way, so for him to have intercourse again with a weak woman who had heart disease felt like torture.

Jing Shaoze said with a faint smile, "Go to sleep. Staying up late isn't good for your health."

As he spoke, he hugged Ning Shu. However, the sensation wasn't very satisfying. She was very thin so it felt like he was hugging just skin and bones.

Jing Shaoze released Ning Shu and said softly, "Go to sleep."

Ning Shu's lips curled with disdain. This man was the best example she had ever seen of men being animals that only thought with the lower half of their bodies.

He looked all elegant and refined but was just filled with lust. He was precisely an animal that only thought with the lower half of his body.

Every single day, he'd make Ye Xi wake up with a sore waist. He was sure strong, just like a tireless pile driver. He was bound to end up with a weak kidney sooner or later.

Ning Shu flipped over so her back faced Jing Shaoze, then closed her eyes to sleep.

The way Ning Shu and Jing Shaoze interacted with each other now was the way the original host had interacted with her husband. The two no longer had feelings for each other. There was only indifference and resentment.

After the first time Jing Shaoze had intercourse with Ye Xi, this had become the destined ending for Jing Shaoze and Ni Jing.

He had taken Ye Xi's first time and Ye Xi had given birth to a child for the Jing family. It was obvious who Jing Shaoze would end up choosing.

So what exactly was the significance of Ni Jing's existence? To show how strong Ye Xi was? She had endured Ni Jing picking faults with her silently. She was so strong and stubborn that she made people's hearts ached for her?

While Ning Shu and Jing Shaoze were sleeping with their backs facing each other, in the master bedroom, Jing Shaoze's parents were also lying together in their bed.

"Pay more attention to how you do things. Don't go too far in front of Ni Jing and don't treat others as fools," said Jing Shaoze's father with a frown. "Ni Jing is still the Jing family's daughter-in-law."

Jing Shaoze's mother sneered, "She's a complete cripple. She can't even give birth to a child, so what can she possibly say? I'm only doing this because it seems so hard for Shaoze and Ye Xi to keep sneaking around at night.

"Besides, being like that at night will make it hard for them to get proper rest. Staying up late isn't good for Ye Xi's health either."

"What I want is a healthy grandson. Ye Xi's tall, beautiful, and also seems pretty intelligent. The baby will definitely be smart and healthy," said Jing Shaoze's mother, unconcerned.

"Don't go too far in front of Ni Jing," repeated Jing Shaoze's father. "The company still has dealings with the Ni family, and even a rabbit will bite when it's cornered."

"I know. I've arranged for Ye Xi to go to the company because I was worried she'd find out. Don't worry, I've planned things out properly," said Jing Shaoze's mother.

"I'm only doing this because I want a grandchild. Otherwise, the Jing family wouldn't have any successors. Don't you want a grandchild?" asked Jing Shaoze's mother.

"I definitely want a grandson, but everything must be in moderation, otherwise the entire plan may end up ruined," said Jing Shaoze's father

"I know."

The next day, Ye Xi was going to start working at the company so she changed into an OL outfit. She had a very good figure, so all the places that were supposed to curve were curved. The pencil skirt showed off her perfect butt and made her legs look especially long and slim.

Ye Xi bundled herself up tightly, but it made her seem far more sexy and charming than when she showed her overflowing cleavage.

When Jing Shaoze saw Ye Xi like this, his eyes lit up and his gaze became smotheringly hot.

Ye Xi noticed Jing Shaoze's gaze and her face turned red. She lowered her head and sat down on a chair.

Chapter 1270: Golden Goose That Could Lay an Egg

"Ye Xi, I'll take you to work after breakfast," said Jing Shaoze's mother.

"Thank you, Madam," said Ye Xi gratefully.

Jing Shaoze looked towards Ye Xi and gave a cold humph. "You'd better hurry up. The company doesn't accept people who are late or leave early."

"I understand." In the face of Jing Shaoze's bad attitude, Ye Xi simply bit her lips and said this in a quiet voice.

Ning Shu ate breakfast while facing this disgusting family. She was pretty impressed with herself for still being able to have an appetite. She felt like her view of the world had become broader.

Although she was angry, she still had to keep a faint smile on her face. The heart-clearing chant and calmness halo allowed her to even laugh at this farce.

They wanted a grandson!?

Ha. Ha. Ha.

Jing Shaoze's mother pretty much regarded Ye Xi as a golden goose that could give birth to a perfect grandson for the Jing family.

But what if Ye Xi couldn't get a child out?

After breakfast, Jing Shaoze glanced at Ye Xi, then brushed his lips against Ning Shu's forehead before grabbing his bag and leaving.

Before leaving, he said sarcastically to Ye Xi, "You'd better hurry up. The company doesn't feed lazy employees. If you dare to be late, then get ready to be kicked out."

Ye Xi's expression dimmed. Why did this man hate her so much? He treated Ni Jing so tenderly, but was like a devil to her.

This devil stole her body and was now making one cut after another on her heart.

Ye Xi felt that she wouldn't be able to endure for much longer. This triangular relationship was very painful for her. It was unbearably painful.

She was stealing something that belonged to others, but Jing Shaoze refused to let her go.

She was really tired.

"Let's go. You don't need to pay attention to that stinkin' boy," said Jing Shaoze's mother to Ye Xi. She completely treated Ye Xi as her daughter-in-law.

Whoever could give birth had the right to be her daughter-in-law.

Ning Shu curled her lips in disdain as she watched the two leave the living room.

"Ni Jing, it's a bit chaotic at home now but once the baby is born, it'll be quiet again," said Jing Shaoze's father. "It's not easy to have a child so please be understanding."

"Ok," said Ning Shu with a bright smile. It was a bit chaotic at home now, but it would be even more chaotic in the future. It wasn't easy to have a child, but it would become even harder in the future.

When Jing Shaoze's father saw the smile on Ning Shu's face, he couldn't help but frown. A thought occurred to him and he reassured Ning Shu, "You will always be the Jing family's daughter-in-law. The Jing family and the Ni family still have business dealings, so we're pretty much of the same family."

"Ok," said Ning Shu with the same smile.

Jing Shaoze's father nodded, then had the driver take him to the company.

As soon as these people left, Ning Shu was left at home alone. She stood by herself in the living room.

Of the same family? Ni Jing was a complete outsider in the Jing family, and only Ni Jing had been foolish enough to believe otherwise.

Ning Shu went upstairs and tidied up the evidence. These could be used to exchange for money.

She had been a lawyer before, and Jing Shaoze was clearly the party at fault. Furthermore, she had a record of what his mother had said to Ye Xi. She had openly told her son to have an affair and sleep with the surrogate mother.

The compensation that Ning Shu was going to demand would make the Jing family bleed like crazy. However, she had the evidence to make as big of a demand as she liked.

It just wasn't the time for her to get out here yet. She had to wait until the Jing family was in the most difficult situation to stomp on their back and make them become completely covered with stinky and unremovable mud.

?Chapter 1271: Go to Sleep, Go to Sleep, Sleep...

Not a single one of them treated Ni Jing as a person. They thought it was enough to just say some pretty words and kept saying that Ni Jing was the Jing family's daughter-in-law, but they completely treated her as a fool.

Jing Shaoze had said that he would only love Ni Jing in this lifetime, but his way of loving her was to get together with someone else?

He came up with all sorts of ways to hide things from Ni Jing since he was worried that Ni Jing wouldn't be able to take the truth. Ni Jing really had to appreciate Jing Shaoze's thoughtfulness.

Ning Shu sat on the bed and practiced the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. It was relaxing being at home alone.

To be honest, since Ye Xi and Jing Shaoze weren't downstairs anymore, it also saved Ning Shu the torment of watching those ridiculously long videos. She had to reapply eye drops multiple times every day to clean out her eyes.

There were already a lot of videos on her computer, so she didn't need to collect any more.

In the evening, Ye Xi and Jing Shaoze came back from work one after the other. When Ning Shu moved closer to Jing Shaoze, she smelled the scent of bath gel.

Ye Xi's hair was also a little damp at the roots. It was obvious that these two had showered at the company.

Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi's clothes were slightly wrinkled as well.

Ning Shu could easily imagine what these two had been up to in the office, but she didn't say anything.

Ye Xi went to her own room as soon as she got back. When she came back out, she had changed her outfit.

Jing Shaoze asked Ning Shu gently, "What did you do at home today?"

"Nothing much, some flower arranging and acupuncture. What about you? Was it busy at the company?" asked Ning Shu.

Jing Shaoze said with a smile, "It wasn't too bad."

"Oh, then I'll bring you lunch tomorrow? The company's lunch definitely doesn't taste as good as home cooking." Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze.

"Please don't..." Jing Shaoze hastily refused. Immediately afterwards, he softened his expression and took Ning Shu's hand gently as he said, "It's so hot outside these days, please don't go all the way to the company. What if something happens to you on the way there? I'll be really worried."

Ning Shu lifted her brows and asked, "You really don't want me to bring you lunch? It's not a huge deal every once a while. It's not like I'll be bringing you food every single day. Maybe I'll bring you lunch tomorrow, or maybe I'll do it the day after tomorrow. It'll depend on the day."

When Jing Shaoze heard what Ning Shu said, his expression worsened. If she launched sudden attacks like this, wouldn't he end up getting caught?

Jing Shaoze hurriedly said, "Don't. It's so hot outside now. With it being 30 degrees Celsius outside, you might get heatstroke from just stepping outside. Your wellbeing is what I care the most about. As long as you stay safe, it's fine even if I starve for a couple days. What would torment me the most is if anything happened to you."

Ning Shu: F*ck, she really wanted to puke...

As she listened to what Jing Shaoze said, her face twitched relentlessly. She was seriously worried that Jing Shaoze would say even more disgusting things so she hastily nodded and said, "Alright, then I won't bring you food."

Jing Shaoze finally sighed in relief.

Since he had already enjoyed himself during the day, he didn't try to come up with an excuse to go to Ye Xi's room again at night. These days, he went to sleep sharing a bed with Ning Shu.

However, the two of them didn't talk. Jing Shaoze would only say softly, "Go to sleep, go to sleep, sleep..."

Each morning, he would clean himself up, then warmly help Ning Shu put on her shoes and help comb her hair.

When Ning Shu saw Jing Shaoze like this, she really wanted to just slap him.

However, she didn't slap him. She just pinched his face, causing a conspicuous red mark to immediately appear.

"Your skin looks so tender that I couldn't resist pinching it," said Ning Shu with a smile.

Jing Shaoze shook his head helplessly. "If you want to pinch, just pinch. Why do it so hard? Are you trying to kill your husband?"

Yup, she was trying to kill her husband.

Jing Shaoze looked in the mirror. When he saw the red mark on his face, he said in an annoyed tone, "How am I supposed to face people like this?"

Ning Shu smiled without saying anything.

They headed downstairs, and when Ye Xi saw the ambiguous red mark on Jing Shaoze's face, her expression dimmed sadly. It looked like she had suffered a blow.

When Jing Shaoze saw Ye Xi's sad expression, he couldn't help but frown as he rubbed the red mark on his face. He wanted to explain things to Ye Xi, but there were so many people here. He planned to wait until they got to the company to explain.

Chapter 1272: Like She had Been Betrayed

Ye Xi kept her head down as she ate breakfast. Jing Shaoze would glance at Ye Xi from time to time, but Ye Xi wouldn't even look at him. It was clear that she was angry.

Ning Shu took in Ye Xi's reaction. Ye Xi couldn't be thinking that something had happened between her and Jing Shaoze, right? Tsk tsk, why does it seem like Ye Xi completely regarded Jing Shaoze as her man now?

It was normal and rightfully legal for a husband and wife to be together, but Ye Xi acted like she had been betrayed.

Ning Shu ate breakfast with a content smile. Their unhappiness added great joy to her life.

When Ye Xi saw the smile on Ning Shu's face, her expression became even more bitter. Tears even flooded up in her eyes.

Ning Shu smiled even more happily.

Jing Shaoze finally came up with a reason to talk to Ye Xi. "Secretary Ye, there is a document I couldn't find, so come to the company with me later." He then emphasized, "It's a very important document."

Ye Xi pressed her lips together without saying anything. She was obviously angry.

Jing Shaoze's mother smiled and said, "Then Ye Xi, please go with Shaoze to help him find the document."

"Alright, Madam." Since Jing Shaoze's mother had spoken up, Ye Xi had no choice but to nod.

Ning Shu maintained her smile. There would probably be another round of drama later.

'I can explain...'

'I'm not listening, I won't...'

'Fuckin' let me explain...'

'Then explain! I'm listening...'

'It's not what you're thinking...'

'I'm not listening, I won't...'

Since she wouldn't listen, then they'll just start doing it. There was nothing a round of tumbling couldn't solve. If one round couldn't fix it, then it'd just call for two rounds.

Ning Shu's imagination was completely roaming free. She smacked her lips. Would Jing Shaoze be able to handle all that exertion?

After breakfast, Jing Shaoze said to Ye Xi, "Come with me to find the documents."

Ye Xi had no choice but to leave with Jing Shaoze.

Ye Xi and Jing Shaoze left, then Jing Shaoze's father also headed off to the company. Jing Shaoze's mother was out with a friend to go shopping and visit a beauty salon, so Ning Shu was the only one left at home.

Ning Shu grabbed the Jiuxin pills, put them in her bag, and headed out as well.

She went to a law firm to find a lawyer. She originally wanted to deal with the lawsuit herself, but after considering things, she decided it was better to find a lawyer.

She didn't plan to divorce by agreement, she wanted to directly sue Jing Shaoze. Not only that, she also planned to sue Jing Shaoze's mother.

In any case, the Jing family should give up all hopes of continuing to live happily. There was no way she'd allow them to keep their good reputation.

Since they've done something this shady, they should have been prepared to accept the consequences.

She soon settled things with the lawyer. She already had video evidence in her possession so this lawsuit would be easy to win.

After leaving the law firm, she went to visit the Ni family again. She didn't tell the Ni family parents about her plans to get divorced.

She planned to wait until they had to attend court to tell them since she was worried that they wouldn't be able to stop themselves from demanding answers from the Jing family.

In any case, there would be another fun drama to watch at the Jing family. The Jing family would definitely end up stupefied.

She looked forward to seeing how her in-laws would deal with it.

After having lunch at the Ni family, as she was about to leave, Father Ni gave her some more money and told her not to bother saving it and to spend it freely.

Chapter 1273: Slapped by Cold Dog Food

Ning Shu accepted the money. She already had money, quite a lot of it in fact, but every time she came back to visit, Father Ni would give her more money out of worry that she wouldn't have enough to spend.

Ni Jing couldn't have children and she had married the only son of the Jing family. He was worried that her daughter would be bullied in that household since she didn't have a child.

Father Ni was worried that Ni Jing wouldn't be able to keep her head up at the Jing family, but if she only used the Ni family's money, she had every right to keep her chest up high.

It was said that married daughters were split water, but the Ni family parents loved Ni Jing dearly and were always worried about her.

Ning Shu said to Father Ni, "Thank you."

"You're my daughter, there's no need for thanks." Father Ni's expression turned solemn. "Your mother and I also feel sad seeing you like this. We failed to give you a healthy body."

Ning Shu smiled and said, "It's ok."

There was nothing they could do about this. No one ever wanted to get sick.

In life, with every loss, came some form of gain. Ni Jing didn't have a healthy body, but she was born in a wealthy family. Hence she didn't need to work hard for a living and could live in peace.

However, Ni Jing ended up marrying Jing Shaoze, and Jing Shaoze then encountered Ye Xi.

So that was the start of the tragedy.

"If you suffer grievances at the Jing family, just come back home. Dad will support you," said Father Ni. "We don't need to lower our heads to them."

"Ok." Soon, she'd probably really have to come back here.

Once she left the Ni family's house, she considered things and decided to visit the Jing family's company. Perhaps she'd be able to encounter a usually censored scene.

Perhaps she'd even be able to catch them pulling their pants up in a fluster.

When she got to the company, she was able to walk all the way to the CEO's office without anyone blocking her way. Upon opening the door, she found that Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi were in the middle of feeding each other. They were so close that their heads were about to touch.

The atmosphere was very sweet. It was so sweet that people practically felt slapped by cold dog food.

"Who allowed..." When Ning Shu opened the door, Jing Shaoze immediately stood up and roared angrily at her. However, once he saw that it was Ning Shu, the anger on his face immediately disappeared and he asked stiffly, "What brings you here today?"

When Ye Xi turned around and saw Ning Shu, her face turned pale and her chopsticks fell to the ground. She immediately bent down to pick them up in a fluster.

She looked about to cry.

Jing Shaoze frowned, then put on a gentle expression and quickly walked to Ning Shu. He took out a handkerchief to dab at the sweat on Ning Shu's forehead as he asked, "Why didn't you call me when you arrived? I would have gone downstairs to meet you."

Ning Shu said with a smile, "I just came here to visit you. Are you guys having lunch right now?"

"Yeah, I asked Secretary Ye to bring me lunch. Do you want some?" Jing Shaoze's face was pretty much overflowing with gentleness. "Actually, forget it, let's go to a restaurant for lunch. You probably won't like the company's food."

As Jing Shaoze spoke, he pulled Ning Shu out of the office. "It's so rare for you to come here, so I'll take you to eat some delicious food."

Jing Shaoze shot Ye Xi a look, but Ye Xi was so flustered that she completely didn't get what Jing Shaoze was trying to convey.

When Jing Shaoze saw how frightened Ye Xi was, he couldn't help but frown. He had no choice but to keep talking to Ning Shu to divert her attention.

Ning Shu expressed that she wasn't a child so there was no way she'd be distracted by just a couple words. However, she had no intentions of paying attention to this in the first place.

So she just skimped over the subject. Even if she tried to demand answers from Jing Shaoze, he would just come up with all sorts of reasons to dodge her.

The only things she'd get to hear were Jing Shaoze's disgusting lies, so she might as well save herself that unpleasant experience.

"You showered?" asked Ning Shu. Jing Shaoze smelled strongly of bath gel so it was obvious that he had showered just a little while ago.

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 1274: Time to Go See What They Were Up To?

There had probably been another drama in which they couldn't control their feelings for each other. After showering, they then start feeding each other. Their way of living had seriously degenerated.

Jing Shaoze's expression didn't even change as he said, "It's too hot these days. I get all sticky and sweaty so it's more refreshing after a shower."

See? Everything that came out of his mouth were lies. He barely even spoke a word of truth anymore.

Ning Shu stopped walking and said, "I've already eaten at home. I just stopped by to see you, so you can go back to work."

Ning Shu smiled very gently. Jing Shaoze sighed in relief and said, "Do you want me to drive you back?"

"There's no need. You can go back to your lunch." Ning Shu turned and left.

Jing Shaoze hastily turned around and walked back into the elevator. When Ning Shu turned around, she found that Jing Shaoze was already gone. This bastard sure ran fast.

He was this anxious to go back to find Ye Xi?

Ning Shu shrugged. Alright, guess it was time to go back up to see what they were up to?

Ning Shu walked back into the elevator and headed back up to the floor of the CEO's office. She sneakily opened the door to the CEO's office and saw that Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi were pulling and pushing at each other while talking.

Ye Xi was in tears as she said that they couldn't be like this anymore, that this was wrong.

Ye Xi felt like she couldn't stand it anymore and really wanted to just leave. However, what would happen to her family if she did that? Without the funds from Mrs. Jing, her father's company would go bankrupt.

But, she had fallen in love with someone else's husband! Ye Xi was very distressed and conflicted.

Meanwhile, Jing Shaoze just said nefariously, 'You shouldn't forget your job. You have to get pregnant and give birth to a child.'

Jing Shaoze directly pressed Ye Xi against his desk and kissed her.

Ye Xi struggled at first, but in the end, wrapped her arms around Jing Shaoze's neck.

As Ning Shu took in this scene, she felt cold dog food slapping her face again.

Ha. Ha. Ha...

Ning Shu closed the door gently, then kicked the door before turning around and walking into the elevator. Hopefully this cheating couple would die from heart attacks!

In the evening, Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi came home one after the other, but their facial colors weren't very good. When Jing Shaoze saw Ning Shu, he wanted to say something but hesitated. It was obvious that he wanted to ask something but couldn't bring himself to say it.

Ning Shu continued to act carefree. He could just keep choking on it until he suffocated. She refused to tell them whether or not she saw something that she shouldn't have seen.

As soon as Ye Xi came back, Jing Shaoze's mother pulled Ye Xi into a room and asked, "Ye Xi, do you feel anything off about your body?"

Ye Xi shook her head and looked towards Jing Shaoze's mother in a daze. "Mrs. Jing, I don't feel any discomfort."

"I'm asking if you're pregnant! Is your period still normal?" Jing Shaoze's mother frowned. "It's been three months since you first came here. How come you still haven't gotten pregnant?"

Ye Xi looked very uneasy and whispered, "It's still normal. Madam, I'm already trying my best, but this isn't something I have control over."

Ye Xi had already made great efforts to get pregnant, but she still hadn't been able to get pregnant.

She was under a lot of pressure. When she saw Jing Shaoze's mother's look of displeasure, she was worried again that Jing Shaoze's mother would withdraw her funds, so she said, "Madam, maybe we should go with artificial insemination after all? I don't know when I'll be able to get pregnant like this."

Ye Xi really rejected this job before, but now she just wanted to get pregnant as soon as possible.

"No way." Jing Shaoze's mother directly refused this idea. She had already put in so much effort, there was no way she would allow them to resort to using artificial insemination.

What she wanted was a grandson that had been conceived naturally and born naturally.

Chapter 1275: This Child Must be Ni Jing's

Ye Xi touched her stomach. She also wanted to get pregnant, that way she could finally be free of this situation. Moreover, after giving birth to a child, she might be able to get away from this socially unacceptable love.

There was no future for her and Jing Shaoze. He loved his wife, and her dignity didn't allow her to disregard shame to stay with him.

She would leave right after she gave birth to the child.

"You should hurry and get pregnant. We can't let this drag on for too long," said Jing Shaoze's mother. She rubbed her forehead and said, "I can't drag it on for too long, otherwise Ni Jing will find out."

"This child must be Ni Jing's, that way this child will have a capable uncle and a wealthy maternal family. You also want your child to have a good future, don't you?" Jing Shaoze's mother patted Ye Xi on the shoulder. "The Ni family and the Jing family are both equally wealthy families."

Ye Xi pressed her lips together. She suddenly envied Ni Jing. Her younger brother was pretty much useless so when an issue had occurred with her father's company, they ended up having to rely on her, this daughter, becoming a surrogate mother to solve the company's crisis.

Although Ni Jing didn't have good health, she grew up like a carefully protected princess.

Ye Xi took a deep breath. "Madam, I'll try to get pregnant as quickly as possible."

Jing Shaoze's mother nodded with satisfaction.

When Ning Shu saw Jing Shaoze's mother come out of Ye Xi's room, she lifted her eyebrows and asked, "Mother, what were you talking to Miss Ye about? You even closed the door to talk?"

Jing Shaoze's mother said, "I just told Ye Xi to go to the hospital tomorrow for a physical examination."

"Oh, so it was about that." Ning Shu just smiled." Miss Ye looks really healthy to me. Her lips are red, her teeth white, and her complexion ruddy. I don't think she needs any more preparation."

"That'll depends on what the doctor says," said Jing Shaoze's mother.

The next day, Jing Shaoze's mother took Ye Xi to the hospital for an examination. It wasn't to check whether or not she was healthy though, but to check whether or not she was pregnant.

If they couldn't find signs of pregnancy from the urine, then they'd just check her blood. However, the result was still that she wasn't pregnant.

Jing Shaoze's mother looked very unhappy and Ye Xi also had her head lowered. She almost seemed to be on the brink of tears.

"All the tests came back normal, so why can't you get pregnant?" Jing Shaoze's mother frowned and looked at Ye Xi as she said, "I can only give you another month at most."

"I understand." Ye Xi quickly nodded.

Jing Shaoze's mother was very irritated so just the sight of Ye Xi angered her. She turned to leave and Ye Xi quickly followed after her. They soon left the hospital.

Ye Xi was also very upset and felt a lot of pressure. Why hadn't she been able to get pregnant yet?

Ning Shu was enjoying the nice air conditioned air at home. She was sitting on the sofa and eating fruit when she saw Jing Shaoze's mother return to the house with Ye Xi.

Their facial colors weren't very good but Ning Shu acted like she didn't notice and asked, "How were the results of the physical examination? Can Miss Ye undergo the embryo implantation operation now?"

Jing Shaoze's mother was already in a bad mood in the first place, so when she heard what Ning Shu said, she became even more infuriated. All this woman did all day was rush her!

"We need to wait one more month. The doctor said that he won't know until after a month," replied Jing Shaoze's mother in an annoyed tone.

How much longer would they be able to drag this on?

Ning Shu lifted her brows. "We have to wait another month? Was there an issue?"

"There wasn't, the doctor just said that Ye Xi's body is a little weak so she needs to prepare for a while longer." Jing Shaoze's mother had no choice but to answer Ning Shu's questions, so her expression worsened even more.

Ning Shu said, "Then Miss Ye should focus on preparing her body properly and stop going to work. It really is tiring to have to leave early and return late every day."

"It's better for her to keep working at the company. Moving around more is also good for the health," said Jing Shaoze's mother hastily.

Chapter 1276: Jingjing is Truly a Kind Person

She was seriously putting a lot of effort to make it so Ye Xi could get pregnant.

Ning Shu said with a smile, "Whatever you say, Mother."

As Ning Shu was talking with Jing Shaoze's mother, Ye Xi just stood at the side with her head lowered the entire time.

Afterwards, Ye Xi and Jing Shaoze went to work every day together and even returned from work together.

It was probably due to the fact that Ning Shu didn't say anything because Jing Shaoze was getting more and more bold. Sooner or later, they'd probably start heading to the company in the same car.

Jing Shaoze had once asked Ning Shu, "Jingjing, you won't get angry if Ye Xi and I go to work together, right? It's all because of Mom. She keeps saying that it's not safe for a girl to head to work and back alone."

Ning Shu was in the middle of drinking juice. Upon hearing this, she smacked her lips, then said, "Why would I be angry? It's just going to work together."

A gentle smile appeared on Jing Shaoze's face and he reached out to tap Ning Shu's nose. Ning Shu almost choked on her juice. Ugh, the disgust!

"My little Jingjing is truly a kind person," said Jing Shaoze with a smile.

F*ck, she really wanted to spit in his face. Tolerating the two of them like a fool without knowing anything was the meaning of being kind?

Even if Jing Shaoze had a handsome face and elegant demeanor, Ning Shu still felt that he was hideous and ugly. How disgusting must a man be to do something like this?

Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze and smiled without saying anything despite the fact that she inwardly wanted to explode.

A month later, Jing Shaoze's mother took Ye Xi to the hospital for another examination, but the result was that she was still not pregnant. Furthermore, she was in the middle of her period when going to get the examination.

Ye Xi hadn't dared to tell Jing Shaoze's mother. After a series of examinations, when Jing Shaoze's mother found out that Ye Xi still wasn't pregnant, her expression darkened with severe displeasure.

Ye Xi was very scared and she pleaded, "Madam, I've really tried my best. I also want to get pregnant, but I just can't seem to."

"How irritating." Jing Shaoze's mother rubbed her forehead. Could it be that they'd really have to go with artificial insemination?

All of Ye Xi's examination results came back normal, so Jing Shaoze's mother had no choice but to bring Jing Shaoze to the hospital for a checkup.

When Jing Shaoze heard that he had to be checked for this issue, his facial color darkened. Any man would be upset if their ability in this department was questioned.

Jing Shaoze felt like he didn't have that issue at all. Furthermore, one of the collection methods terrified him. They'd directly penetrate his balls, just the thought of it was unbearably painful.

He went through a complete set of inspections, his expression dark the entire time.

However, the result of the examination made Jing Shaoze's dark face instantly turn white. He had been diagnosed with necrospermia, and the amount of sperm he had was abnormally small.

Which meant that Jing Shaoze suffered from infertility.

Jing Shaoze's mother flipped through the diagnosis report over and over again, her hands trembling and her face pale.

"Doctor, perhaps you've made a mistake? There's no way my son can be infertile. It can't be. This isn't possible." Jing Shaoze's mother looked dumbfounded.

What were they supposed to do now?

"We have already cross-examined several times. Mr. Jing indeed has this condition." The doctor spread out his hands and said, "Madam, if you're not convinced, we can collect his sperm again to perform a new examination."

From start to end, Jing Shaoze was in a daze. It was like his soul had left his body.

"Shaoze, let's try it again." Jing Shaoze's mother pulled Jing Shaoze who was sitting on the chair and said, "Maybe there was a mistake. Let's check it again."

Jing Shaoze's expression was dull and as he got up, he staggered and almost fell. He walked into the laboratory with heavy steps.

Chapter 1277: No Way Her Son was Infertile

Jing Shaoze endured the painful collection process again. When he came out, his face was completely white and his body trembled incessantly.

Ye Xi hastily went to take his arm and help him sit down.

Jing Shaoze was trembling uncontrollably. He almost fell to the ground when sitting down on the chair.

"Jing Shaoze?" called Ye Xi softly when she saw Jing Shaoze like this.

Jing Shaoze ignored Ye Xi and buried his head in his hands. He almost wanted to just curl up entirely.

Jing Shaoze's mother was waiting right at the door of the laboratory. Her hands were tightly clenched into fists as she prayed that the earlier diagnosis was wrong. There was no way her son was infertile. It wasn't possible.

Jing Shaoze's mother's lips were trembling and even her face was convulsing, making it impossible for her to control her expression. It made her face look extremely sinister.

It was a very long wait. For the people waiting at the door, every single second was an eternity of torment.

Jing Shaoze hugged his head and dug his hands into his hair. Tears slowly flowed out of his eyes, then dropped to the ground.

Ye Xi, who was sitting next to Jing Shaoze, saw him crying. She was shocked. She never imagined that this devil of a man who had always seemed so self-confident could actually shed tears.

Ye Xi didn't understand how hard a blow it was for a man to find out that he was sterile. It greatly reduced their dignity and killed their self-confidence.

Right now, Jing Shaoze felt like he had completely lost the basis of his confidence, so he was completely in a daze.

This incident had pretty much destroyed him.

Ye Xi couldn't help hug him. She wanted to give him some warmth. She could understand the pain of not being able to have a child. These past months, she had suffered enormous pressure because of this issue as well.

That was why she had been frantically trying to get pregnant.

But inwardly, Ye Xi was relieved. At the very least, it wasn't her fault. The issue didn't originate from her, so even if she hadn't gotten pregnant, it wasn't her problem.

Ye Xi was very scared of Jing Shaoze's mother. Jing Shaoze's mother always urged her to get pregnant faster and every time the results came back negative, Jing Shaoze's mother's expression would become very cold.

She needed Jing Shaoze's mother's help to save her father's company, so she had no choice but to quietly endure her reproaches and the suffering.

However, then a problem occurred to her. If Jing Shaoze really was infertile, then she wouldn't be able to become pregnant. If that was the case, would Jing Shaoze's mother be taking back the money?

Since this was related to her direct interest, she started praying that Jing Shaoze's body would be ok, that he would definitely be fine.

The door of the laboratory finally opened and the three people who were waiting outside all held their breaths as they looked at the doctor.

The doctor held the report as he met their gazes, then shook his head. "The result's the same."

"No way." Jing Shaoze's mother snatched the report from the doctor's hand. Her hand was trembling uncontrollably as she read, then she furiously tore it up.

Jing Shaoze's face paled even more. Suddenly, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Ye Xi was worried about the money and about her relationship with Jing Shaoze. She and Jing Shaoze had gone through so much, but what had it all been for? When she saw that Jing Shaoze had fainted, she hurriedly said to Jing Shaoze's mother, "Madam, Jing Shaoze's fainted."

Jing Shaoze's mother was currently pulling the doctor's coat and crying that he must have made a mistake. Upon hearing what Ye Xi said, she turned around and found that her son was lying on the ground. She broke down as she threw herself over and started crying, "My son! Oh my son!"

A nurse pushed a bed over to bring Jing Shaoze to a ward. Following that, Jing Shaoze's mother's eyes also rolled back and she collapsed on the ground.

Ye Xi had just gotten Jing Shaoze onto the hospital bed when his mother also fainted. It left Ye Xi in a complete fluster.

Ye Xi gritted her teeth and endured.

Chapter 1278: There Were Way More Things Waiting for You

Ning Shu was watering the flowers at home when she got a phone call from Ye Xi. Ye Xi said that Jing Shaoze and his mother had both been hospitalized and asked her to hurry to the hospital.

When Ning Shu heard this, she set down the watering can, took off her shawl, and went upstairs to get changed. After grabbing her Jiuxin pills and putting them in her pocket, she headed straight to the hospital.

Jing Shaoze's father was already in the ward when she arrived. His expression was solemn and his forehead was covered with sweat. It was clear that he had also just rushed here.

Ye Xi was in the middle of talking to Jing Shaoze's father but when she saw Ning Shu come in, she immediately stopped talking.

When Jing Shaoze's father saw Ning Shu, he sighed and his brows furrowed. Ning Shu walked to Jing Shaoze and saw that his face was deathly pale. There was no color even in his lips.

"What happened? How did both of them end up hospitalized?" asked Ning Shu.

Jing Shaoze's father sighed heavily. "Let's talk after we get back."

Jing Shaoze and his mother were just so overwhelmed by the news that they couldn't take it and fainted. It wasn't like they were ill, so they soon woke up one after another.

As soon as Jing Shaoze's mother woke up, she hugged Jing Shaoze's father and started bawling. While sobbing, she cried, "What do we do? What are we supposed to do? What sin did we commit to deserve this?"

Jing Shaoze's mother cried loudly without any regard for the fact that they were in a public venue. Her voice was also very loud so it made all the nurses and doctors look over.

Jing Shaoze's father berated in a low voice, "Shut up! Wait until we get home to talk."

The two were soon discharged from the hospital. Jing Shaoze's father gave the hospital some money to destroy Jing Shaoze's medical case.

If it was revealed that the only heir of the Jing family was infertile, it would cause a commotion in the company.

Ning Shu helped Jing Shaoze, who had been silent this entire time, into the car.

Ye Xi was standing outside the car and hesitating about whether or not to get on. This was their family affair so was it appropriate for her to listen?

"You get in the car too," said Jing Shaoze's father to Ye Xi.

Ye Xi had no choice but to get in the car.

The car soon arrived in front of the villa. Having gotten home, Jing Shaoze could no longer suppress his emotions and he started smashing everything within reach in the living room like a madman.

Pieces of shattered vases littered the ground and all the tea tables and chairs had been overturned. The room was a complete mess.

At last, Jing Shaoze collapsed weakly to the ground and gasped for breath.

Jing Shaoze's father looked at Jing Shaoze and said, "Are you done venting? How disappointing. It's just a small matter, yet you're overreacting so much."

"My son! Oh my poor son! Shaoze..." sobbed Jing Shaoze's mother. She covered her mouth as she looked at Jing Shaoze through her tears.

Ning Shu's face was expressionless. On the contrary, Ye Xi was the one who showed heartache.

Jing Shaoze's father had the servants clean up the house, then gave them a holiday and had them leave the villa.

"Dear, what do we do?" Jing Shaoze's mother looked towards Jing Shaoze's father in a daze. In the end, Jing Shaoze's mother was a woman. Whenever something big occurred, she could only look to the head of the family for a decision.

Jing Shaoze's father glanced at Ning Shu and Ye Xi, then said in a low voice, "Don't go around talking about this."

"Yes," replied Ning Shu and Ye Xi in unison.

Jing Shaoze got up with difficulty and walked over to hug Ning Shu while murmuring, "Jingjing, Jingjing..."

Ning Shu consoled Jing Shaoze with a gentle smile, "It's alright, this is no big deal."

There were way more things waiting for you.

Chapter 1279: Play Good Cop Bad Cop

Jing Shaoze hugged Ning Shu tightly, as if trying to draw warmth from Ning Shu.

Ning Shu gently patted Jing Shaoze's back and said lightly, "I don't care what you're like."

She didn't care at all.

Ye Xi watched blankly as Jing Shaoze hugged Ning Shu, then her expression dimmed. During his time of greatest difficulty, the first person he thought of was his wife.

She was nothing to him.

"What do you mean by it's no big deal!?" When Jing Shaoze's mother saw how much Ning Shu was playing this down, she vented all her anger and indignation on Ning Shu. "Are you actually happy that Shaoze can't have a child? You can't have a child and now Shaoze also can't have a child! You must be so happy?"

Ning Shu took advantage of this chance to push Jing Shaoze away. It was seriously hot to hug someone in such hot weather. Moreover, Jing Shaoze's tears were dripping on her shoulders so it was uncomfortably sticky.

"What are you saying, Mother?" Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze's mother who was biting at people like a crazed dog.

"Look at you! You're definitely secretly delighted that Shaoze can't have a child anymore!" Jing Shaoze's mother pointed at Ning Shu as if trying to vent all her anger on Ning Shu. "Perhaps you were even praying for Shaoze to be infertile. Truly, women had the most malicious hearts! You malicious wretch!"

Ning Shu frowned. Jing Shaoze's mother was pointing right at her nose and cursing at her, but no one in the room was saying anything. Jing Shaoze looked like he was in a complete daze.

In the end, Jing Shaoze's father saw his wife had pretty much finished venting so he finally gave a soft cough to interrupt his wife's cursing.

There was no benefit in letting this go on any longer, and it would even make their daughter-in-law estranged from the Jing family.

After this incident had occurred with Jing Shaoze, there was no way Jing Shaoze could get divorced on top of that. It would make the relationship between the Jing family and the Ni family become rigid.

Jing Shaoze's mother had no choice but to shut up, but her gaze was still stabbing Ning Shu like a knife.

"Your mother-in-law is just in a bad mood right now, so please be understanding," said Jing Shaoze's father to Ning Shu

Why did she have to be understanding about everything? Although it was said that one had to be pointedly foolish and deaf in order to be a strong elder in the family, Jing Shaoze's father was seriously too irritating. This couple was just working together to play good cop bad cop!

Jing Shaoze's father could be said to be fully responsible for this entire incident. Jing Shaoze's mother was the executor, and Jing Shaoze's father had silently approved of this entire charade.

Ning Shu didn't speak. Jing Shaoze's father rubbed his forehead and seemed to age greatly in an instant.

"Pull yourself together. Go take a look at yourself in the mirror!" shouted Jing Shaoze's father towards Jing Shaoze who was sitting on the sofa.

Jing Shaoze took a deep breath, but he still looked very defeated.

"Dear, what do we do now?" Jing Shaoze's mother looked completely at a loss. She really didn't know what to do.

"Could it be that the Jing family will end here?" Jing Shaoze's mother collapsed weakly. The overbearing arrogance she usually emitted also gradually disappeared.

She had given birth to an infertile son. She felt like she couldn't really keep her head up anymore. At the same time, she was worried about her position in this family.

Jing Shaoze's father rubbed his forehead. "How would I know what to do?"

Ning Shu said lightly, "Isn't there still Miss Ye? Miss Ye may perhaps turn out to be our savior. "

The people in the room were stunned for a moment, then they looked towards Ye Xi.

Ye Xi also looked completely confused. She obviously didn't understand what Ning Shu meant.

"Miss Ye is a surrogate mother. Big Big Brother Shaoze no longer has that ability, but you have it, Father." "Ning Shu smiled faintly. "Father, Mother, you guys can have Miss Ye carry the pregnancy for you guys."

"This way, the Jing family can have another successor," said Ning Shu lightly.

Jing Shaoze's mother was almost 50 years old. There was a high risk that a child she gave birth to would not be healthy.

Chapter 1280: No One Cared About her Feelings

However, if they used embryo transfer, they could choose healthy eggs to fertilize and allow the young Ye Xi to carry the pregnancy.

The child would at least be healthier than if Jing Shaoze's mother gave birth to it.

"No!"

"No way!"

Jing Shaoze's mother and Jing Shaoze voiced their disagreement in unison.

Jing Shaoze, who hadn't spoken since the incident, finally opened his mouth. His eyes were completely red as he glared at Ning Shu. It made his expression look extremely sinister. "Absolutely no way."

"Yes, there's no way, no way..." Jing Shaoze's mother's face was pale. She seemed terrified as she shook her head and kept saying no.

See? People just didn't understand the pain until they experienced the pain of being stabbed themselves.

Jing Shaoze's mother had found a surrogate mother for her son. If it was just that, it would have been fine, but she even had her son sleep with the surrogate mother.

She completely disregarded Ni Jing's feelings.

Right now, Ning Shu had only proposed for Ye Xi to act as a surrogate mother for the two of them through artificial insemination, but Jing Shaoze's mother already couldn't take it.

The surrogate mother who had slept with her son would now carry a pregnancy for her and her husband?

What a twist!

Ning Shu raised her eyebrows. "Why not? In any case, Miss Ye is a surrogate mother. We only need to borrow Miss Ye's body to give birth to a child."

"No way." Jing Shaoze's mother gnashed her teeth as she looked at Ning Shu. "Don't ever bring this up again."

Ning Shu closed her mouth and sat at the side silently.

Jing Shaoze was breathing heavily as he looked towards Ning Shu, his eyes red. "Jingjing, how could you let Ye Xi be the surrogate mother for our parents' child? How could you? Don't you know that..."

"Big Brother Shaoze, why not? Miss Ye's here to give birth to a successor for the Jing family and Big Brother Shaoze, you can't really..." Ning Shu paused for a moment. "The Jing family has such a large family business, how can the family go without a successor? This is all for the Jing family. Father and Mother would understand."

"Everything is for the sake of this family," said Ning Shu.

Jing Shaoze's mother's face was deathly pale. She looked towards her husband with tears in her eyes and sobbed, "Dear, you won't let Ye Xi be a surrogate, will you? Dear..."

Ye Xi was our son's woman!

Ning Shu said sternly, "Mother, why don't you let Miss Ye be a surrogate? Could it be that you want to give birth yourself? With artificial selection, you guys can make a healthy child that inherits your genetics."

" Mother, this is all for the sake of giving the Jing family a successor." Ning Shu said to Jing Shaoze's mother, "This will still be your child."

"Shut up..." Jing Shaoze's mother roared at Ning Shu, "You wicked woman, what do you mean by this? What do you mean by insisting we have a surrogacy?"

Ning Shu was taken aback. "Isn't Miss Ye here to be a surrogate mother? The only thing that's changed is that she'll be carrying the pregnancy for you and Father instead. Besides, Mother, you were the one that found this surrogate mother. "

"Enough, stop arguing." Jing Shaoze's father interrupted the quarrel between Ning Shu and Jing Shaoze's mother sternly.

"Let's talk about this later. Ni Jing, look after Shaoze." Jing Shaoze's father rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

Ye Xi, who was standing nearby, seemed dazed. She felt like she was just a commodity, a commodity that could be dealt with at will.

Furthermore, she was a commodity whose only use was to carry a pregnancy.

She'd have to carry a pregnancy for whoever they decide. No one ever asked her for her opinions on this, they completely disregarded her existence.

No one cared about her feelings.

?Chapter 1281: What About the Surrogacy Fee?

From start to finish, Ye Xi didn't say a word. She watched them quarrel silently since it seemed to have nothing to do with her.

She felt like her heart was ripping. For a surrogate fee of a couple million, she had even abandoned her dignity.

From the moment she first stepped on this path, she had no way to turn back.

Ye Xi looked towards Jing Shaoze. She wished that he would step forward to protect her, that he would stand protectively in front of her and say no to this.

But the only one he cared about was his wife.

Ye Xi felt extremely humiliated. She and Jing Shaoze were already sexually involved, but she would have to carry a pregnancy for his parents.

She really wanted to refuse, she really wanted to say no, but as she stood here in this luxurious living room, she knew she would have to take this path to its end for the sake of money.

In the end, Jing Shaoze's father didn't agree to let Ye Xi be their surrogate mother. It was clear that he was also aware that Ye Xi was his son's woman.

Jing Shaoze's mother breathed a sigh of relief.

Ning Shu raised her eyebrows and asked, "We hired Miss Ye as a surrogate mother, but now we don't need Miss Ye anymore, so what do we do about the high surrogacy fee?"

When Ning Shu brought up the surrogate fee, Ye Xi immediately looked towards Jing Shaoze's mother with pleading in her eyes. Her father's company wouldn't be able to survive without that funding.

Jing Shaoze's mother now found Ye Xi an eyesore in every aspect so she said coldly, "Since there was no surrogacy, the money must of course be taken back."

Ye Xi's face turned pale and she stumbled as she walked over to Jing Shaoze's mother.

She abruptly dropped to a kneel in front of Jing Shaoze's mother and tugged at her skirt as she pleaded, "Madam, please, I'm begging you! My father's still waiting on the money and I've already given my body..."

"Get up, I'll help your father's company out." Jing Shaoze's father interrupted Ye Xi, clearly not wanting her to reveal that she had already slept with Jing Shaoze.

The current situation was already extremely chaotic, he couldn't allow her to say anything that would cause Ni Jing to explode.

If the Ni family started causing a ruckus, then things would really become a mess.

They had prepared for everything so things had been moving in a good direction. However, it had never occurred to them that there would be an issue with their son's body.

Jing Shaoze's father had only said this to stabilize the situation and calm Ye Xi down.

It caused Jing Shaoze's mother to completely explode. She looked towards Jing Shaoze's father disbelievingly and demanded, "Why are you helping her? Could it be that you actually plan to let her be our surrogate?"

"Or is it that you've taken a fancy to this vixen!?" Jing Shaoze's mother started screaming crazedly while flailing her arms. One of her nails scratched Jing Shaoze's father's face, leaving a long bloody scratch.

"Enough, do you even know what you're saying?" Jing Shaoze's father could feel his face burning with pain and his facial muscles trembled. He glanced at his son, then rebuked his wife in a low voice.

"Mom," said Jing Shaoze, his expression dark. "Don't talk nonsense,"

Jing Shaoze's mother instantly calmed down. She bit her lips hard and fell silent.

After this ruckus, the entire family was exhausted.

Ning Shu sat on the sofa and leisurely sipped on water as she took in the expressions of the people in the room.

Jing Shaoze's father looked very worried.

Jing Shaoze's mother was indignant and as she looked towards Ye Xi, her expression was very unfriendly. Ye Xi was no longer the woman who would give birth to her precious grandson.

Jing Shaoze was in a daze. He obviously still hadn't recovered from the shock and probably thought that he was dreaming.

Ye Xi was crying silently, which caused people to feel heartache for her.

Ning Shu was the only one in the house who was in a good mood.

The Jing family had fallen into chaos.

Chapter 1282: You'll Always Be With Me, Right?

The human heart was the origin of all chaos. The issue of the Jing family's successor had become more complicated because Jing Shaoze was sterile.

If Ye Xi hadn't gotten sexually involved with Jing Shaoze, it wasn't a huge issue if Ye Xi really wanted to be a surrogate for Jing Shaoze's parents.

But the problem was that Ye Xi was Jing Shaoze's woman. If she became a surrogate for Jing Shaoze's parents, even if there was no blood relationship between them, it still felt like incest.

"Go make food," said Jing Shaoze's father to his wife. Since he had let all the servants leave earlier, there was no one to make dinner.

Jing Shaoze's mother turned to Ning Shu and said, "Ni Jing, you go do it."

Ning Shu shook her head and said, "I have heart disease so I can't stand the smell of smoke."

Jing Shaoze's mother's expression turned ugly and she muttered, "In what household does a mother-in-law ever serve the daughter-in-law?"

Ning Shu's expression didn't change, it was as if she didn't hear what Jing Shaoze's mother had said.

"How about I do it?" asked Ye Xi carefully.

Jing Shaoze's mother glanced at Ye Xi in annoyance and said, "Then you go do it."

Ye Xi headed to the kitchen with her head down. After working for a while, she made some simple noodles.

The taste wasn't that great and no one here really had any appetite, so after a couple of bites, they stopped eating. Ning Shu was the only one that finished the entire bowl of noodles and even drank the soup.

When Jing Shaoze's mother saw Ning Shu like this, she slapped her chopsticks down and said coldly, "What's with your behavior? People would think that the Jing family had starved you?"

"That's enough. Stop making a fuss." Before Ning Shu even said anything, Jing Shaoze's father had already berated his wife.

Jing Shaoze's mother was so angry that she picked up her chopsticks and started using them to stab her bowl of noodles. Her noodles soon turned into an unsightly mess.

After dinner, Ning Shu headed back to her bedroom to shower and sleep.

When Ning Shu came out of the bathroom, she saw that Jing Shaoze was sitting by the bed. Jing Shaoze forced a smile and asked, "Jingjing, you'll always be with me, right? Forever?"

"Don't worry too much. No matter what you're like, it doesn't make any difference to me," said Ning Shu.

Jing Shaoze smiled. "Jingjing, I know you love me."

Jing Shaoze went and showered, then lay down next to Ning Shu. Ning Shu said, "Go to sleep."

Jing Shaoze obediently closed his eyes.

Ning Shu eventually drifted off to sleep, but when she woke back up, she found that Jing Shaoze, who had gone to sleep next to her, was now gone.

Her eyes whirled, then she took out her laptop from the drawer and opened it.

Jing Shaoze, who was supposed to be upstairs, had gone to Ye Xi's room. The two were hugging each other tightly like wounded wild animals while tumbling passionately.

"Although I can't make a baby, I can still do you." Jing Shaoze's voice was trembling like he was on the brink of tears. At the same time, it seemed to tremble due to cruelty, as his movements were very ruthless.

"You belong to me! You're not allowed to be a surrogate for someone else," said Jing Shaoze, his voice hoarse.

Ye Xi was weeping softly, but she grabbed Jing Shaoze's strong shoulders hard, to the point her nails were digging into his flesh. However, Jing Shaoze didn't seem to feel any pain and just continued to vent himself with a fierce expression.

The two were like wounded beasts. They licked at each other's wounds, even while deepening the wounds.

Ning Shu watched the intense video for a bit, then yawned and saved it.

She was pretty speechless. Jing Shaoze had just said that he wanted to be with her forever right before bed, but before a night even passed, he had wandered over to Ye Xi's bed.

Did Jing Shaoze remember what he said?

He made a promise to one woman, then in the blink of an eye, was sleeping with a different woman.

That was what his love was like? His promises were completely empty.

Chapter 1283: But This Was Just the Beginning

Ning Shu never thought that Jing Shaoze would still have the mood to do something like this. Was he just trying to vent his pain?

She rubbed her eyes as she watched the livestream. Since she had just woken up, the light from the computer kind of hurt.

After saving the video, she turned off the computer.

Jing Shaoze had returned to the room before she fell asleep. He walked quietly over to the balcony.

Ning Shu smelled the smell of cigarettes and alcohol. When she flipped over, she saw a little red dot on the balcony. Jing Shaoze was smoking.

Jing Shaoze didn't smoke or drink. He was a well-educated and elegant young man.

However, now he was in a completely decadent state. Right after returning from Ye Xi's bed, instead of going to sleep, he insisted on staying up to smoke and drink.

Ning Shu paid no attention to him and just closed her eyes to sleep. He could just do whatever he liked.

Jing Shaoze slept on the balcony that night. When Ning Shu woke up and want to check the balcony, she found that it was littered with empty bottles and cigarette butts.

Jing Shaoze's facial color was very poor and his hair was a little damp from the morning dew.

Ning Shu pushed Jing Shaoze and said, "Wake up."

Jing Shaoze opened his eyes and they were completely bloodshot. The sight was actually a little frightening.

Jing Shaoze wanted to say something, but his throat hurt too much. He coughed to clear his throat, but then his coughs only got more severe.

Ning Shu looked at Jing Shaoze. He already couldn't take it anymore? But this was just the beginning.

Jing Shaoze coughed for a while before he finally stopped. He rubbed his forehead, trying to soothe the pounding headache. He then looked towards Ning Shu with his red eyes, looking very pitiful.

"Go and wash up." Ning Shu kept a gentle smile on her face.

Jing Shaoze stood up but staggered and almost fell. He had to lean against the wall to head to the bathroom.

After such a huge incident, neither Jing Shaoze nor his father went to the company.

No one had prepared breakfast either. When Jing Shaoze's mother saw Ning Shu, she said angrily, "How can you be so lazy? You woke up only now? Hurry and go make breakfast."

"I'm not feeling well." Ning Shu directly refused.

"You..." Jing Shaoze's mother glowered at Ning Shu. "What's with your attitude?"

Ning Shu expressionlessly picked up a glass of water and sipped on it.

"Hello, Ni Jing!? I'm talking to you!" shouted Jing Shaoze's mother.

"I'll do it," said Ye Xi hastily.

When Jing Shaoze's mother saw Ye Xi, her expression became even worse. She said coldly, "I'm talking to Ni Jing. What are you interrupting for? Do you have any right to talk here?"

Ye Xi didn't know what to say so she just stood at the side with her head lowered.

Jing Shaoze's mother became even more infuriated when she saw Ye Xi react like she had been bullied.

"Who are you putting on that show for?" Jing Shaoze's mother glared at Ye Xi. "Is this what you rely on to seduce people?"

Ye Xi looked dazed in a very innocent way. She shook her head and said, "No, Madam, I just wanted to help make breakfast."

Chapter 1284: Can't Have a Child and Lazy!

Ye Xi felt really helpless. She had only said a total of three words, but it had caused Jing Shaoze's mother to explode.

She had no choice but to just bite her lips and stop talking.

Jing Shaoze's mother glared at Ye Xi in disgust, then turned back to Ning Shu.

Jing Shaoze's mother was no longer as friendly to Ye Xi as before. However, she hated Ning Shu even more for proposing that Ye Xi be the surrogate for her and her husband.

"Ni Jing, go make breakfast." Jing Shaoze's mother looked towards Ning Shu. She insisted that Ning Shu made breakfast.

Ning Shu said lightly, "I don't know how to. I've never cooked before."

Jing Shaoze had just finished showering and came downstairs. His face was pale and his eyes bloodshot. He looked very haggard.

"What's going on?" asked Jing Shaoze hoarsely as he rubbed his forehead.

When Jing Shaoze's mother saw her son like this, her heart filled with heartache and she asked, "Shaoze, what happened to you? Why is your facial color so poor?"

Jing Shaoze had lost his usual elegance and dignity overnight. He looked like he had no self-confidence left at all.

A man who was sterile seemed to have no life value.

Jing Shaoze could no longer find his direction, nor any sense of value.

"Are you ok?" asked Ye Xi worriedly. She couldn't help but recall last night. While they had been entangled, those hot tears had fallen on her face and her chest.

Ye Xi felt great heartache for Jing Shaoze. The way Jing Shaoze had treated her with disgust and all those past hurts had disappeared from her mind.

The only thing she remembered was the sight of Jing Shaoze's tears, his silent tears.

"Shaoze, what kind of wife did you marry? It's enough that she can't have a child, but she's even so lazy. She refuses to do anything and doesn't even listen to me."

Jing Shaoze's mother complained to her son as she glared at Ning Shu resentfully.

When Jing Shaoze heard the words 'can't have a child,' his face suddenly turned ashen. His facial muscles quivered and his eyes became even more bloodshot.

"Sorry, Mom didn't mean that! Mom didn't mean that you can't have a baby, Mom was talking about Ni Jing."

Jing Shaoze's mother saw the look on Jing Shaoze's face and knew that she had stabbed him in a sore spot. She quickly tried to explain herself, but the more she explained, the worse Jing Shaoze's facial color became.

"I told you not to make trouble, but you completely disregarded my words!" Jing Shaoze's father came out of his room and yelled at his wife.

"I-I just wanted Ni Jing to make breakfast, but she wouldn't listen to me." Jing Shaoze's mother looked wronged. When she saw her husband's scary expression, she was almost about to cry.

Jing Shaoze's father snapped, "You know she's not in good health, so why are you telling her to make breakfast? Why don't you just do it? How can you be so lazy? Is it that hard to just make a meal?"

Jing Shaoze's mother's face turned red and her expression filled with resentment when Jing Shaoze's father scolded her. She was the daughter of a wealthy family who had grown up leading a pampered life. She didn't even have to get her own water, there had always been servants to bring it for her. But now, she actually had to make a meal?

"You're cooking with me," said Jing Shaoze's mother sharply to Ye Xi.

"Alright." Ye Xi followed her into the kitchen.

Jing Shaoze's father said to Ning Shu, "Daughter-in-law, after something like this has happened, I just hope that you and Shaoze could have a good life. Shaoze can't really accept reality right now, but he'll get better after a while."

Ning Shu nodded mildly.

"Neither of you can have children, so you guys can adopt a child. This child can also be registered in the Jing family's household register," added Jing Shaoze's father.

Ning Shu raised her eyebrows and asked, "You mean that our adopted child will also have inheritance rights?"

Jing Shaoze's father fell silent. It was clear that he wouldn't hand the Jing family's large enterprise to someone he had no blood relationship with.

Chapter 1285: Issue of Inheritance

Since the adopted child had no inheritance rights, what was the point of allowing her to adopt a child? Just to coax her?

"Why do you want us to adopt a child if the child won't have inheritance rights?" asked Ning Shu

Jing Shaoze's father glanced towards Jing Shaoze who was sitting on the sofa with his head down, then said, "The child can keep you guys company."

Ning Shu narrowed her eyes. It seemed that her father-in-law had accepted the fact that Jing Shaoze was sterile.

Ning Shu curved her lips into a smile as she asked, "Father, Big Brother Shaoze is your only son. Could it be that you want to pass the Jing family to someone else?"

Jing Shaoze's father looked displeased as he glanced at Ning Shu and said, "It's too early to say anything about this now. Shaoze is my son so he naturally has the right to inherit Jing family."

"Shaoze only has a physical ailment. He's still my son so the Jing family will be passing on to him," said Jing Shaoze's father.

"But Big Brother Shaoze and I have no children." Ning Shu raised her eyebrows.

Jing Shaoze's father rubbed his forehead and said, "I've thought about things for a night and I've decided to have a surrogacy."

Jing Shaoze turned to look at his father. His voice was very hoarse due to the damage caused by the cigarettes and alcohol. "Dad, you're going to have a surrogacy?"

Jing Shaoze's father nodded. "I've decided to have another son. I'll pass the Jing family to you, and when the time comes, you'll pass the Jing family to him. "

Then that means he was just a middle station. Jing Shaoze pressed his lips together tightly. His pupils were visibly trembling and he couldn't speak for a long time. He couldn't have children, so the future he had been confident about had now become very confusing.

The Jing family was originally rightfully his, but now there was going to be a younger brother who he had to compete with for the right to inherit the Jing family.

Ning Shu glanced at Jing Shaoze's mother who had just come out of the kitchen holding a bowl, then asked her father-in-law, "Then have you figured out who would carry the pregnancy? Since she'll be a surrogate for the Jing family, she has to be in good health. "

When Jing Shaoze's mother heard what Ning Shu said, she was so shocked that she dropped the bowl. The bowl of noodles fell on the ground and the hot soup splashed on her feet, causing burning pain.

But right now she had no time to worry about these things. She walked up to Jing Shaoze's father and asked in a sharp tone, "You want to find a surrogate?"

"Calm down." Jing Shaoze's father could tell that she was about to go crazy. "Aren't we still discussing it right now?"

"I can't calm down! Why do you want to find a surrogate? I absolutely won't agree to a surrogate! You'll do it over my dead body." Jing Shaoze's mother was very stirred up. She was scared that her husband would end up like her son and end up personally taking on the task of making the surrogate pregnant.

She didn't regret looking for a surrogate mother for her son, but she couldn't allow herself to end up in Ni Jing's shoes. Ni Jing was stupid, but she wasn't!

"What other option is there aside from a surrogacy? Or is it that you want the Jing family to die out?" berated Jing Shaoze's father. "If you make trouble again, I'll kick you out of here! "

"Haven't I treated you well all these past years?" said Jing Shaoze's father coldly. "You were my only woman and I only had one child. The Jing family is now facing the threat of having no descendants, so if you keep being so unreasonable, we should just get divorced."

Jing Shaoze's mother opened her mouth but couldn't speak for a moment. Afterwards, she softened her expression and said stubbornly, "Why do you have to find a surrogate? It's not like I can't give birth."

"If you can give birth, why was Shaoze the only child we had all these past years? You didn't give birth while you were young, so what could you possibly give birth to at such an old age?" said Jing Shaoze's father, not bothering to be polite at all. "Can you be a little more sensible?"

"I..." Jing Shaoze's mother was livid with rage and started screaming hysterically, "Will the surrogate mother be surrogating our child, or yours and the surrogate mother's child?"

"What are you talking about? Stop saying nonsense!" Jing Shaoze's father glanced at Ning Shu. "Can't you think before you speak? Of course the child will be ours."

Jing Shaoze was in a complete daze as he listened to this exchange. His entire world had abruptly flipped upside down. He felt like he had been abandoned by this world.

Chapter 1286: I'm Willing to Surrogate

His parents were discussing having another child right in front of him. Due to losing his ability to make children, he had lost everything.

There seemed to be a wild beast inside his heart that kept roaring incessantly and tormenting him.

Ning Shu gave a cough and asked, "Since you guys have decided to have a surrogacy, then all you need now is a surrogate mother. There is a readily available surrogate mother right here."

"You guys just need to go to the hospital to have a physical examination, and then you guys will be able to have a child very soon." Ning Shu toyed with her hair. "You can even have twins."

"I'm willing to surrogate." Ye Xi, who had just come out of the kitchen, said this resolutely, but her voice was trembling.

The moment Ye Xi said this, everyone in the living room turned to stare at her. Ye Xi said, "I'm willing to surrogate Mrs. and Mr. Jing's child."

Ning Shu was a little surprised. Hadn't Ye Xi been unwilling to surrogate Jing Shaoze's parents' child earlier?

"You bitch!" Jing Shaoze's mother immediately rushed to Ye Xi and slapped her in the face. "You shameless slut!"

Jing Shaoze's mother started hitting Ye Xi like she had gone crazy while cursing at Ye Xi.

Ye Xi pressed her lips together tightly. When it hurt too much, she just gave a muffled groan, but aside from that, she didn't resist as Jing Shaoze's mother hit her.

Crash!

Shatters!

Jing Shaoze's entire body was trembling as he overturned the tea table, making a loud noise. The vase and fruit on the tea table all fell to the ground.

Jing Shaoze's mother, who was in the middle of hitting Ye Xi, looked at her son in alarm.

Jing Shaoze's hair was covering his face, casting a large shadow, and his entire body emitted a gloomy aura.

Jing Shaoze's father rubbed his forehead, then walked to Jing Shaoze's mother and slapped her with the back of his hand. He did it very hard, causing her to fall to the ground.

Jing Shaoze's mother covered her face as she looked towards her husband in shock. Her eyes were full of grievances and resentment. She pointed at Ye Xi with a trembling finger as she asked Jing Shaoze's father disbelievingly, "For the sake of this bitch, you actually hit me?"

Jing Shaoze's father glanced at his son. This incident had dealt a great blow to his son and had completely destroyed the son he had been so proud of.

Jing Shaoze's father squatted down and grabbed Jing Shaoze's mother by her hair to make her face him. He said fiercely, "If you make any more trouble, I'll beat you to death. Think more about your son! Look at what he's like now, yet as the mother, all you're doing is causing more trouble."

Jing Shaoze's mother was crying and sobbing softly.

Jing Shaoze looked at all the people in the room, then his gaze stopped on Ye Xi. Ye Xi met his gaze with tears in her eyes.

Jing Shaoze was just about to walk over when he stumbled and abruptly fainted.

"Shaoze!" Jing Shaoze's mother hastily got up and ran over to Jing Shaoze who had fainted.

Ye Xi walked towards Jing Shaoze as well, but Jing Shaoze's mother pushed her away.

"You shameless bitch, stay away from my son! What did you do to my son, you shameless vixen?"

Ye Xi fell to the ground and inhaled sharply in pain. She bit her lips so hard they were about to bleed.

Chapter 1287: One Last Hope

Jing Shaoze had fainted and the living room was a mess. There were shattered vase fragments, fruits, and mushy noodles covering the floor.

When Jing Shaoze's father saw this, his blood pressure rose so much that he almost fainted as well. He sat on a chair and rubbed his forehead.

He looked exhausted. Despite being the head of the Jing family, he hadn't been able to control the current situation and things were completely spiraling out of control. He didn't know how things would turn out.

Ning Shu said to Jing Shaoze's father, "Let's call the hospital and ask them to send someone over to take a look at Big Brother Shaoze."

Jing Shaoze's father heaved a sigh, then called the hospital.

A doctor and a nurse soon arrived. The doctor checked Jing Shaoze's condition, then said that he had only fainted from exhaustion and that there weren't any huge issues.

In Ning Shu's opinion, Jing Shaoze had probably fainted from excessive anger after hearing Ye Xi say that she was willing to surrogate his parents' child. He hadn't been able to take it.

Jing Shaoze was moved to the bedroom and Ning Shu sat down to look after him. Ye Xi wanted to stay, but she had no reason or right to stay.

When Ning Shu saw Ye Xi standing at the door, she asked, "Miss Ye, are you really going to surrogate for my in-laws?"

Ye Xi bit her lips. At this point, her lips were already bleeding and her face was completely swollen after being beaten by Jing Shaoze's mother. There was even blood on the corners of her lips.

"Yes, I've decided to surrogate for Jing Shaoze's parents." Ye Xi's face was extremely red. It hurt her self-esteem a lot to say such words in front of Ni Jing.

Even though Ni Jing didn't know about her relationship with Jing Shaoze, she still felt really humiliated and her face was burning with shame.

Ye Xi glanced one last time at Jing Shaoze who was on the bed, then turned and left.

Ning Shu waited by the bed for Jing Shaoze to wake up. Jing Shaoze's previously fair and tender skin was now a lot dimmer, like it had been covered with a layer of ash.

People's moods truly influenced their bodies.

Jing Shaoze woke up after sleeping for almost three hours. Ning Shu put a straw into the water glass and asked Jing Shaoze, who was staring at the ceiling blankly, "Do you want water?"

Jing Shaoze sat up and drank the water with the straw.

Ning Shu lifted her brows and said, "Didn't you freeze your sperm earlier? We can go check if your frozen sperm is fertile. "

"Yes, that's right..." Jing Shaoze's eyes instantly brightened, but they soon dimmed again. "Since the issue is with my body, won't things be the same?"

"We can still check," said Ning Shu. "What if this condition was a recent issue and things weren't like this before?"

After hearing what Ning Shu said, Jing Shaoze excitedly got out of bed to head to the hospital.

Jing Shaoze's parents accompanied him to the hospital, but Ning Shu didn't go. It was way too hot, she had no desire to be rushing around outside.

Ye Xi saw Jing Shaoze leave in a hurry, so after hesitating for a while, she finally asked Ning Shu, "Where are they going?"

Ning Shu looked towards Ye Xi. Her face was ashen. Her originally beautiful face was no longer very pleasant to look at.

Ning Shu felt like Ye Xi also had it quite hard. She was enduring all sorts of torments for the sake of saving her father's company.

Women had their unique advantages. A woman's body was her weapon and capital.

In reality, Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi's love was simply a purchase of sex service. It was only beautified by the excuse of being true love.

"They're going to the hospital," replied Ning Shu lightly.

When Ye Xi saw that Ni Jing didn't really seem to want to talk to her, she could only stand at the side silently.

Chapter 1288: Locked Himself Up

As Ning Shu waited for Jing Shaoze and others to come back, she silently recited the heart-clearing chant to clear up her thoughts.

She had experienced too much and saw all sorts of dark things.

Those who offered up their souls for a counterattack were people who had been wronged and treated unjustly. The ones who hurt these entrustors the most were often the people closest to them.

Feelings, were the most uncontrollable and ethereal things. They were an existence that was both strong and extremely fragile. It was easy to destroy and change them.

The more she saw, the more her heart filled with indignance and fury. These emotions stained her soul and her heart.

So she had to constantly clear the emotional buildup in order to maintain sight of herself.

Jing Shaoze soon came back and hurried up the stairs without saying anything. He slipped and fell while heading up the stairs, but quickly got up again.

He locked himself in his bedroom and refused to see anyone.

Jing Shaoze's father was worried that Jing Shaoze would resort to drastic measures and got the key to open the bedroom. However, Jing Shaoze opened the door and said softly, "Give me some time to be alone. I'm not weak to the point that I would commit suicide."

Ning Shu saw that Jing Shaoze's eyes were dull with no spirit at all. His state was even more frightening then the gloominess that had previously been hovering over him.

Jing Shaoze's father sighed silently and had no choice but to let him do as he wished.

Ning Shu knew based on this that things hadn't gone as they hoped. Jing Shaoze had just seen a little glimpse of hope, but the hope was shattered again.

Jing Shaoze didn't take a single step out of his bedroom so Ning Shu had no choice but to go sleep in the guest room. She ate and slept soundly every single day.

Jing Shaoze's mother would leave food in front of the bedroom door every day. Jing Shaoze would open the door to take the food and set the dishes outside again after eating.

There weren't any sounds coming from the room so no one knew what Jing Shaoze was doing inside.

Jing Shaoze had been born with a golden spoon in his mouth. Everything had been smooth sailing for him since childhood, so he wasn't able to endure such a sudden blow.

Jing Shaoze wasn't even as strong as Ni Jing. Ni Jing had been suffering from illness since she was a child and she couldn't have children, so the pressure she endured was even more than what Jing Shaoze was enduring now. However, she had never reacted the way he was doing right now.

Ye Xi was also worried about Jing Shaoze, but she didn't dare to express it. Furthermore, she kept having to endure Jing Shaoze's mother picking faults with her.

Jing Shaoze's mother was coming up with all sorts of ways to make Ye Xi suffer and was very rude to Ye Xi. In all honesty, Ye Xi was only making a business deal with Jing Shaoze's mother so there was no need for her to put up with all of this.

It was probably because she had fallen in love with Jing Shaoze, so she had no choice but to tolerate his mother's bullying.

Jing Shaoze's mother rarely picked faults with Ning Shu because Ning Shu wouldn't tolerate her bullying and Jing Shaoze's father had repeatedly warned her not to mess with Ning Shu.

With Jing Shaoze in this situation, they couldn't afford to lose the support of the Ni family.

In the past, the Jing family had still been full of confidence, but they couldn't be as arrogant now. Ni Jing couldn't have children and Jing Shaoze also couldn't have children, so the two were truly equal.

Jing Shaoze, who had locked himself up in his bedroom for nearly half a month, finally came out. He even cleaned himself up before coming out. Although he had gotten thinner, he was still in relatively good spirits.

Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze with an eyebrow raised. Jing Shaoze hugged Ning Shu. He took a deep breath, then said, "Jingjing, I'm back."

"I'll never be conflicted over this again," said Jing Shaoze. "I still have to keep you company."

Ning Shu extracted herself from Jing Shaoze's arms and looked towards him. He looked a lot less spirited compared to before, but he had also become calmer.

Had Jing Shaoze finally gotten over it, or had he just buried this issue deep inside his heart?

Chapter 1289: Conditions for Surrogacy

Jing Shaoze's father was relieved to see that his son had finally pulled himself together.

During this period, Jing Shaoze's father had to work a lot. Not only did he have to worry about stabilizing the company, he even had to worry about his family and whether or not his son would ruin his own body. He was also worried that the Jing family would have no descendants and that their line would die out.

So now he regretted not playing around more while he was young. Otherwise, he might have some illegitimate children now and wouldn't have to worry about the Jing family having no descendants.

Back then, he thought that it had been enough to just have one son. He thought that training one child train well was better then having constant internal. Domestic conflicts would only use up the resources of Jing family.

It never occurred to him that Jing Shaoze, his only son, would actually end up infertile.

When he saw that the issue of Jing Shaoze had been resolved, he started focusing on the issue of a surrogacy.

When Jing Shaoze's father proposed having a surrogacy, although Jing Shaoze's mother was unwilling, she didn't dare to make a scene again and just listed her demands. "I must be present at the time of the in vitro insemination operation and the child must be ours."

There was no way she would raise a child for another woman.

"Of course," said Jing Shaoze's father.

"I have one more condition." Jing Shaoze's mother pointed at Ye Xi. "I don't want her to be the surrogate."

Jing Shaoze's facial color was a bit ugly as he looked at Ye Xi. "I don't agree to her being the surrogate either. She was supposed to surrogate for me and Jingjing, but now she's going to surrogate for my parents? It's completely messed up."

Ning Shu said, "Why don't you want to use Miss Ye? She's young and beautiful, and she's in good health. Besides, Mother, didn't you already give her half of the deposit? We're just borrowing her body to carry the child. It shouldn't matter whose child she's carrying."

When Jing Shaoze heard what Ning Shu said, a trace of anger flashed his eyes. Ye Xi was his woman, how could he allow her to surrogate for someone else? And it would even be for his parents?

"Jingjing, I don't like her, so let's have Mom and Dad find a different surrogate mother," said Jing Shaoze softly as he took Ning Shu's hand.

Ning Shu smiled without saying anything.

Jing Shaoze's father said directly, "I'll look for a different surrogate mother. We don't need Miss Ye."

Ye Xi's face instantly turned pale and she hastily knelt down to Jing Shaoze's mother and beseeched, "Madam, please! Let me surrogate for you! I'm willing!"

Jing Shaoze's mother was nearly about to explode from anger. "You shameless bitch! There's no way I'll let you be my surrogate! Get out of my house right this instant!"

No matter how Jing Shaoze's mother looked at Ye Xi now, all she saw was a vixen. This vixen had seduced her son, and was now trying to seduce her husband!

Ye Xi shook her head in panic. "Madam, please! Please let me surrogate for you."

If she couldn't act as a surrogate mother, what was her father's company supposed to do? Ye Xi knew that if she didn't do the surrogacy, there was no way Jing Shaoze's mother would give her this money for free.

When Jing Shaoze saw Ye Xi like this, he got up angrily, about to teach this woman a lesson. However, he controlled himself in the end.

Ning Shu just looked on with a raised eyebrow.

Ye Xi had been so reluctant before but now, her only choice was to have a successful surrogacy. The Jing family was the only party that could pay such a high surrogacy fee.

Jing Shaoze's mother angrily slapped Ye Xi in the face. "How can you be so shameless?"

Ye Xi covered her face, but continued kneeling on the ground stubbornly.

When Jing Shaoze saw that Ye Xi was hit, heartache flashed through his eyes. After all these events, Jing Shaoze finally realized that Ye Xi, this woman, had deeply entered his heart.

But at the same time, he couldn't bring himself to part with Ni Jing.

After all, Ni Jing was the wife he had gone through so much opposition back then to marry.

Chapter 1290: Without a Malicious Foil

Ning Shu hadn't targeted Ye Xi the way the original host had and wasn't that 'malicious,' so Jing Shaoze's heart wasn't completely leaning towards Ye Xi.

But he had still fallen in love with Ye Xi. Without Ning Shu being malicious as a foil, Jing Shaoze couldn't help but be conflicted over this issue.

"Mom, you don't need to worry about her," said Jing Shaoze coldly. "I'd like to see how thick her skin is. Would she be shameless enough to continue staying here?"

When Ye Xi heard what Jing Shaoze said, she bit her lips as she silently weeped. Her eyes were filled with hurt as she looked towards Jing Shaoze.

Jing Shaoze's father had never been planning to let Ye Xi be their surrogate. Use his son's woman as a surrogate? That would be a complete mess.

However, Ye Xi resolutely stayed in this house. Jing Shaoze's father took Jing Shaoze into consideration and didn't kick Ye Xi out.

But Jing Shaoze's mother didn't want to see Ye Xi for even a second longer and insisted on driving Ye Xi out no matter what.

Jing Shaoze's father berated, "It's already so late. Even if she has to leave, she should leave tomorrow morning. Just let her stay the night."

Jing Shaoze's mother looked even more suspicious and felt certain that this woman had seduced her husband.

It was late by the time the family meeting ended. Ning Shu and Jing Shaoze headed back to their bedroom to rest.

The moment they got back to the bedroom, Jing Shaoze took Ning Shu's hand and said emotionally, "Jingjing, you stayed at my side even though so many things have happened. Thank you."

Ning Shu smiled gently. In her heart, there was a big Ha. Ha. Ha...

Shit. She really wanted to just slap him.

He was saying affectionate words at this point, but in the middle of the night, this son of a bitch disappeared again.

Ning Shu: _

She took out the laptop and opened it. Unsurprisingly, Jing Shaoze back was in Ye Xi's room.

They were on the bed and Jing Shaoze was gripping Ye Xi's wrists forcefully as he said, "You're this eager to be a surrogate mother for my dad? Do you know that you're my woman!?"

Ye Xi just wept silently, so Jing Shaoze became impatient. "Say something?"

"From the moment I stepped into this house, I no longer had any roads of retreat left. I have to surrogate for your family so that I can save my father's company. For money, for my father's company, I can do anything!"

"You..." Jing Shaoze was irritated. "Why are you so stubborn? So as long as you have money to solve the crisis your father's company is facing, you won't try to be a surrogate?"

Ye Xi was silent for a while, then finally said, "Yes."

"If you need money, I can give it to you. But do you dare to take it?" Jing Shaoze's expression was calculating.

Ye Xi looked at him warily and asked, "What do you want?"

"Be my mistress. Leave this place by tomorrow. I'll buy you a house, and the money I give you will count as payment for being my mistress."

"Jing Shaoze, stop insulting me!" cried Ye Xi as she struggled hard to get free.

Jing Shaoze pushed Ye Xi's wrists down to stop her from moving. "Didn't you say that you could do anything for money? Didn't you say that you were willing to pay any price to save your father's company? "

"Think about it carefully. Your father is still waiting on money to save him. If he doesn't get it, maybe tomorrow's newspaper would be covering an entrepreneur jumping off a building." Jing Shaoze threatened Ye Xi.

Ye Xi's face was pale. "Stop! Don't say anymore."

"Besides, it's not like we haven't done it before." Jing Shaoze's lips hooked, which made Ye Xi blush and feel hot all over.

Ye Xi's expression was filled with struggle for a while, but then she finally bit her lips and said, "I can be your mistress, but you have to give me the money first. I don't trust you."

?Chapter 1291: I Want to Get Divorced

Ye Xi had compromised. There were too many things on her shoulders, so she had no choice but to compromise. Moreover, she secretly harbored feelings for Jing Shaoze.

She wanted to stay by this man's side if only for just a little longer.

Perhaps when Jing Shaoze got tired of her, she would be able to harden her heart enough to leave him.

"Here's the check." Jing Shaoze took out a filled out check. He clearly had been certain that Ye Xi would accept his conditions.

Ye Xi took the check and looked at it carefully, then nodded and said, "I'll leave tomorrow."

"And..." Jing Shaoze lifted Ye Xi's chin. "You can't let Ni Jing know about this, not even a hint of it. Furthermore, you're not allowed to ever show up in front of Ni Jing. You will always just be a mistress. Don't even dream of wanting anything else."

"If you violate the agreement between us, I'll destroy your father's company. It will be as easy as how I helped save it." Jing Shaoze looked at Ye Xi coldly.

Ye Xi bit her lips. "I understand."

"Good girl." Jing Shaoze leaned over and kissed Ye Xi's lips and Ye Xi wrapped her arms around his neck in response.

Ning Shu: ...

Jesus. She thought that she had already seen much of the world, but seeing this still stunned her. As expected, she was still too inexperienced and still got surprised over every little thing.

Haha, Ye Xi was also playing pretty smart. Who exactly was taking advantage of whom? She had clearly insisted on staying here in order to wait for Jing Shaoze.

Ning Shu saved the video, then turned off the computer and went to sleep.

She originally thought that Jing Shaoze would be crushed after finding out about his infertility, but he had come to terms with it and even became more dissolute. He even had the mood to tumble with Ye Xi.

All while keeping up the manner of 'I love my wife a lot. You should give up dreaming of ever becoming my wife.'

Now she wished that she had jabbed an extra needle in him at the start and made him impotent.

The next day, Ye Xi packed up her things and left., probably to head to the house that Jing Shaoze had prepared, to start the life of being kept as a secret mistress.

When Jing Shaoze's mother saw Ye Xi leave, she was very smug like she had won a great battle. At the same time, she seemed very glad to finally get that pestilence demon out of the house.

Jing Shaoze's mother was worried that her husband would be seduced by this shameless bitch.

This woman had been willing to seduce her son for the sake of money, so this woman would definitely do the same to her husband for money.

As of now, Jing Shaoze's mother had completely forgotten about how she had used money to make Ye Xi agree to do this.

Truly, like mother, like son.

Jing Shaoze's mother turned to glance at Ning Shu who was eating breakfast. Her heart filled with scorn and a sense of superiority. What an idiot. This woman wasn't even aware that her husband had been cheating on her with another woman.

Ning Shu finished drinking the milk, then headed back to her bedroom. She stuffed her computer into her bag and grabbed the Jiuxin pills, then headed back to her mother's house.

When Jing Shaoze's mother saw that Ning Shu was heading out, she asked, "Where are you going?"

"Home. There are no servants here right now, so it's pretty inconvenient. I'm going to go home for a while," said Ning Shu with her chin lifted. She didn't bother to be polite.

Jing Shaoze's mother was furious. "You're always running back to your family! Don't you know that you're now a member of the Jing family?"

She soon will no longer be.

Ning Shu ignored her and headed back to the Ni family. The first thing she said when she saw the Ni family parents was, "Mom, Dad, I want to get divorced."

Father Ni's eyes widened. "So suddenly?"

Ning Shu picked out a few videos for the Ni family parents to watch and said, "I won't let the Jing family off."

After Father Ni watched the video, he immediately got high blood pressure. He was only able to recover after Mother Ni quickly got him medicine.

Chapter 1292: The Court Sent a Subpoena

"Those disgusting wretches!" Father Ni said between gritted teeth, "Divorce, you have to get divorced! Those bastards!"

Father Ni called Ni Yan, who was at work, and told him to get his ass back here.

When Ni Jing's older brother came back and saw that Father Ni look like he wanted to smash everything in sight, he asked, "What's with you?"

"Look at this bunch of bastards." Father Ni pushed the computer in front of Ni Yan.

Ni Yan lifted his brows as he looked towards the video, then his expression became increasingly strange. After he finished watching the video, he asked Ning Shu, "How did you get this?"

"By recording it of course," replied Ning Shu.

Ni Yan said, "You're quite strong to have been able to watch this without getting a heart attack."

Was that supposed to be a compliment?

"We can't let the Jing family off like this." Father Ni was so angry his breathing was unsteady.

Ni Yan looked towards Ning Shu and said, "I think you should get divorced. Staying in a family like that deals too much harm to your body. And who knows if they'll eventually do something to directly hurt you? The only reason they bothered to try to keep this from you was because they were worried about the Ni family."

"Big Brother, I'll definitely get divorced. I've already found a lawyer. All that I'm waiting for is for the court to summon Jing Shaoze," said Ning Shu.

Father Ni immediately nodded. "Get divorced. Dad will raise you. Once Dad is gone, your brother will raise you."

"Do you need me to do anything?" asked Ni Yan.

"Nothing for the time being." The material she had gathered was enough to destroy the Jing family's reputation.

She didn't need to worry about anything. After all, the Ni family's status was comparable to that of the Jing family's.

Ning Shu stayed with the Ni family and Mother Ni cooked a lot of food that Ni Jing liked. She kept getting food for Ning Shu while wiping at her tears.

Ning Shu ate whatever Mother Ni got her since she wasn't picky. When conditions were difficult, she could pretty much eat anything.

Ni Yan ate slowly in a refined manner. He glanced at Ning Shu, then said, "Good thing you didn't overreact to things. If you ended up letting the Jing family find out in advance that you were aware of what they were doing, perhaps you wouldn't have been able to come back. You weren't in good health in the first place, so even if something had happened, they could just write it off as you had a heart attack and we wouldn't be able to do anything about it."

Ning Shu nodded. Why else would she have endured things? If the Jing family locked her up, there was no way she could escape. This body was too weak, she'd run out of breath before even taking a few steps.

She called the lawyer and asked him to prepare the materials for the court session quickly, then asked him when the court would be holding the trial.

Jing Shaoze was currently with Ye Xi. He had bought a small house for Ye Xi in an ordinary neighborhood. Although it was in a remote location, the interior was very luxurious.

The two were in the middle of tumbling when Jing Shaoze's phone rang. The moment he answered, his father roared, "Where are you? Get back here right now! The court sent a subpoena."

Jing Shaoze was baffled, but since this incident had been enough to make his father loses his composure, it must be something big. He immediately prepared to go back.

Ye Xi wrapped her arms around Jing Shaoze's waist and Jing Shaoze gently patted her hands. "I need to head back. You should just rest up for today."

Ye Xi nodded sweetly and watched Jing Shaoze leave.

When Jing Shaoze got back home, he was slapped in the face with a piece of paper. His father roared, "Look at this! Ni Jing wants to get divorced with you and directly filed a lawsuit!"

Jing Shaoze was completely taken aback and it took him a while to recover. "What divorce? Who wanted to get divorced?"

Jing Shaoze looked at the court summons. It was so abrupt. Why did Ni Jing suddenly want to get divorced? There hadn't been any warning signs at all.

Jing Shaoze's father rubbed his forehead wearily. "Ni Jing is now back at her mother's house. Hurry and go get her back. Make sure to be humble about it."

"If she wants to get divorced, then let her. I have no desire to keep a daughter-in-law like this." Jing Shaoze's mother curled her lips in disdain.

"Shut up! You seriously have no brains!" shouted Jing Shaoze's father, his expression dark.

Chapter 1293: See You in Court

"You have to bring Ni Jing back. If you don't, don't bother coming back either!" Jing Shaoze's father turned to shout at Jing Shaoze.

Jing Shaoze was a little stupefied. He never imagined that Ni Jing would want to get divorced with him. It was something that he had never considered, so for a moment, he couldn't quite accept it.

"Hurry and go. It's already chaotic enough at home now. You two can't get divorced during this critical time," urged Jing Shaoze's father. Jing Shaoze wasn't the only one that felt stunned, he was also taken aback for quite a while when he first saw the court summons.

Jing Shaoze turned around and ran out of the living room to the garage. He hastily got in the car and sped off to the Ni family.

When Jing Shaoze arrived at the Ni family's villa and walked into the living room, he saw that Ning Shu was sitting on the sofa and talking to Mother Ni.

She looked completely at ease and content. There was no sign of the fact that she was someone who was about to get divorced.

Jing Shaoze's heart instantly filled with fury. Was she messing with him?

As soon as Jing Shaoze walked in, the Ni family all turned towards him, then their faces filled with scorn and resentment. Father Ni immediately got up to teach Jing Shaoze a lesson.

Ning Shu pressed Father Ni back down and said, "I'll handle this."

"Will you be able to handle it? If you can't, I'll just beat him up until he scrams," said Ni Yan as he crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa.

Ning Shu grinned.

Jing Shaoze felt that the atmosphere was very strange. The Ni family looked like they wanted to devour him alive. He looked towards Ning Shu with a hurt expression. "Jingjing, what's the matter? Why do you want to suddenly get divorced?"

"What am I supposed to do if you leave me? Isn't this asking for my life?" Jing Shaoze's face filled with helpless indulgence. "Stop making trouble and come home, alright? We can talk things out slowly back at home."

Ning Shu's expression was cold as she said lightly, "Things are as you've seen. We're getting divorced. I'll see you in court."

"Why?" Jing Shaoze really couldn't understand. When he saw Ning Shu's cold and indifferent expression, he was taken aback. Ni Jing was an extremely gentle person. Her smile had always been very gentle.

But now, she looked so different. The cold aura she gave off made her seem like a completely different person.

Ning Shu said, "You'll know why I want to get divorced once the trial starts. I'll kindly remind you that the trial will be starting soon. Have you hired a lawyer?

"I'm completely serious about this."

Jing Shaoze tousled his hair in irritation, then walked towards Ning Shu. Ning Shu immediately stepped back to maintain a distance.

"Jingjing, do you have to do this? Why? Even if you want to sentence me to death, you should at least state the charge. There's no way I'll agree to getting divorced without a reason," said Jing Shaoze unyieldingly.

"I don't care if you agree or not. I'm going to divorce you anyway." Ning Shu sneered.

She had already filed a lawsuit, so did his opinion matter? It didn't matter at all.

Jing Shaoze couldn't hold back his anger any longer. "What are you causing a ruckus for? So many things happened just a while ago but we all made it through. I thought that you would always be by my side, so why are you doing this?"

"If you don't clear things up today and won't come home with me, then I'm not budging from here." Jing Shaoze pressed his lips together and sat down on the ground while looking towards Ning Shu with a pitiful expression.

When Father Ni saw Jing Shaoze's shameless behavior, he was so angry that he pointed at Jing Shaoze and started calling him bastard, good-for-nothing, f*cking whore! In any case, he blurted out all the curses that he could come up with. Jing Shaoze was completely dumbfounded, then his expression turned very dark.

He really didn't understand what had happened. The Ni family parents had always treated him very well, but now their attitudes had changed dramatically.

He was a little uneasy and beseeched Ning Shu, "Jingjing, could we talk alone?"

Ning Shu smiled faintly. "No."

Jing Shaoze became even more upset and yanked at his hair. He wanted to explode, but suppressed it. "Then you should at least tell me what happened. You want to get divorced with me without even telling me the reason? Don't you think that it's unfair?"

"Unfair?" Ning Shu almost destroyed her noble and cool temperament. Jing Shaoze was talking about fairness? Had he been fair to Ni Jing?

Ning Shu smiled again. "I'm not telling you."

Jing Shaoze: ...

Jing Shaoze felt completely helpless. "Jingjing, please stop making trouble."

"Come home, alright? We can talk it out at home." Jing Shaoze's voice trembled as he pleaded. His gaze was filled with longing and love as he looked towards Ning Shu.

"If you don't come back with me, I'll just sleep here." Jing Shaoze was gambling on the fact that his wife cared about him and would feel heartache for him.

Ning Shu smiled as she said to Ni Yan, "Big Brother, call the police. Tell them that someone has broken into the house and we lost a cloisonne vase from the Yongzheng period."

Ni Yan lifted his eyebrows, then made the call with a smirk.

Jing Shaoze was dumbfounded. He stared at Ning Shu in disbelief and said, "Jingjing."

Jing Shaoze couldn't believe that his wife would be so cruel. She had suddenly become so ruthless and heartless without warning.

Jing Shaoze continued to sit on the ground and just looked towards Ning Shu hopefully.

Ning Shu met his gaze, then smiled gently at him the same way Ni Jing always did.

Jing Shaoze stared blankly at the smile on Ning Shu's face. It was clearly the same person and clearly the same smile. However, one was gentle and touching, while the other was extremely cold. The sight of this smile along with the cold sensation coming from the floor tiles made Jing Shaoze shiver.

Ning Shu sat down on the sofa and ignored Jing Shaoze who remained sitting on the ground.

Soon, police cars rushed over and the sound of the sirens got louder and louder. The police cars stopped at the gate of the villa.

Several policemen in uniforms came in. Ni Yan went over to tell them the situation.

"Who broke into the house?" asked one of the police.

Ning Shu pointed to Jing Shaoze. "It's him."

"Ni Jing." Jing Shaoze gnashed his teeth as he looked at Ning Shu. His voice was filled with indignance and hurt as he said, "Must you do this? Must you be this heartless? Have you forgotten about everything we've been through? "

Ning Shu said with a faint smile, "I don't know you."

Jing Shaoze: ...

Jing Shaoze was about to puke blood. Was it possible to have a proper conversation?

Ni Yan said to the police, "Please get him out of here. Send him back to wherever he came from, thanks."

The police walked up to take Jing Shaoze away but Jing Shaoze abruptly jumped up and ran towards Ning Shu.

Ni Yan blocked Jing Shaoze's way and punched him in the face. Jing Shaoze was sent crashing to the ground and the police immediately detained him.

Jing Shaoze looked towards Ning Shu as he shouted, "Ni Jing, what exactly are you trying to do? Ni Jing!"

Ning Shu patted her chest and said fearfully, "Hurry and arrest him! He wanted to attack me just now."

Jing Shaoze: Pfff...

"Jingjing, Ni Jing..." Jing Shaoze was dragged away by the police. As he struggled against them, he kept shouting Ni Jing's name.

"Ni Jing, there's no way I'll agree to this divorce. You'll do it over my dead body!" Jing Shaoze pressed himself against the window of the car and shouted, "Jingjing, I love you! Don't do this to me!"

The police closed the window and Jing Shaoze's roaring abruptly disappeared.

Chapter 1295: Normal in Our Social Stratum

The living room instantly became a lot more quiet once Jing Shaoze left. Ning Shu heaved a sigh. Thank god he finally scrammed.

"You ok?" asked Father Ni.

Ning Shu shook her head. "I'm fine. I've already made up my mind so I don't feel hurt anymore and I also won't waver. I'm definitely getting divorced."

Ni Yan looked towards Ning Shu and said, "Jing Shaoze does have some feelings for you. He just wants to get the best of both worlds. This kind of thing is pretty normal in our social stratum. It just depends on whether or not you can endure it."

Ning Shu gave him a sidelong glance. "He wants to have the best of both worlds? I'd rather have things be fully broken then to keep up a hypocritical pretense. This kind of thing is pretty normal? Then Big Brother, how come I don't see you doing anything like this? I never see you messing around with women. "

"There's no way I can tolerate something like this. Look at what the Jing family was planning! They wanted me to raise someone else's child so that you'd end up having a 'legitimate' nephew that would not only be a successor to the Jing family, but also be a successor to our family," said Ning Shu coldly.

Ni Yan said, "Since you've made up your mind, then act decisively and swift. Don't end up raising a big ruckus, then still saying that you miss him."

"Don't worry, Big Brother. If I go back to the Jing family after being treated like that, then I must be brain-dead," said Ning Shu.

"Our family had some business collaborations with the Jing family, but we'll be canceling them now," said Ni Yan. "You'd better not feel heartache later."

Heartache? For what?

Jing Shaoze was taken to the police station and questioned. When they found out that it was just a fight between a married couple, they let Jing Shaoze go.

Jing Shaoze's expression was extremely dark. When he got home, he hesitated at the door for a long time, not daring to open it.

In the end, he still went in. The living room was brightly lit. After that trip to the police station, it was already early dawn.

Jing Shaoze's parents hadn't gone to bed and were sitting on the sofa, waiting for him to come back.

"Mom, Dad," said Jing Shaoze wearily.

When Jing Shaoze's father saw that his son had come back alone, his eyelids jumped. He was already getting a bad feeling. "How come you came back alone?"

Jing Shaoze's head dropped even more and he didn't speak.

"What exactly happened?" asked Jing Shaoze's father hastily. "Talk already! Ni Jing didn't come back with you? Didn't I tell you to bring her back?"

"Can't you talk to your son properly? Don't you see how tired he is?" said Jing Shaoze's mother, her face filled with heartache.

Jing Shaoze had no choice but to explain what happened at the Ni family.

Jing Shaoze's father's expression darkened the more he listened. "Ni Jing actually called the police on you?"

"What? How dare she do that to you?" Jing Shaoze's mother was trembling with rage. A wife asked the police to arrest her husband? What absurd behavior!

She was a cripple! She should be honored to be able to enter the Jing family, yet she actually dared to do something like this!

Jing Shaoze's father knew that the relationship between the two families was done for. The Ni family had told the police to arrest Jing Shaoze without even giving their family a warning. People of their own social stratum cared about reputation the most. Even if they didn't get along, they would still uphold a courteous manner.

There was no way they'd directly have a falling out like this.

Jing Shaoze's father rubbed his forehead and got up to make a phone call. However, he was hit with a bout of dizziness and fell back on the sofa.

"Dear!" Jing Shaoze's mother was alarmed and hastily asked, "Are you alright?"

"Dad." Jing Shaoze also looked towards him worriedly.

Jing Shaoze's father waved dismissively and said, "Get me the phone. I'll call that old geezer from the Ni family."

Chapter 1296: Personal Greetings to All 18 Generations

Jing Shaoze got the phone for his dad and his dad called Father Ni.

As soon as the call connected, Jing Shaoze's father said, "Lao Ni, I'm Shaoze's father..."

The moment he said who he was, Father Ni started hurling a flurry of curses at Jing Shaoze's father. It was like he had the intention of giving personal curses to all eighteen generations of the Jing family.

Father Ni had always felt like he had let his daughter down for not giving her good health, so he was always very protective of her. Back then, he had liked Jing Shaoze because Jing Shaoze seemed to take good care of his daughter. That was why he had given an equal amount in return gifts as he had received in the dowry.

But they had actually mistreated his daughter so badly and even wanted her to raise someone else's child. This bullying was intolerable!

They completely showed no respect for the Ni family, to actually have the nerve to try and take over the Ni family!

Jing Shaoze's father couldn't get a single word in. After Father Ni finished cursing, he directly hung up.

Jing Shaoze's father sighed. It seemed that the Ni family was determined to get a divorce.

"Dad." Jing Shaoze looked towards his father.

Jing Shaoze's father looked at Jing Shaoze and said, "We have to prepare for the worst. The Ni family looks determined to get a divorce."

"I don't want to get divorced with Ni Jing," said Jing Shaoze.

Jing Shaoze's father glared at him. "Even if they want to get divorced, we must ensure the rights and interests of the Jing family. The shares of the company must be taken back."

Jing Shaoze looked a little depressed. He couldn't really make sense of this. "Why does Ni Jing want to get a divorce?"

Jing Shaoze's father glanced at his wife, then at his son. His eyes narrowed as he said, "Perhaps Ni Jing has found out about what happened between Shaoze and that surrogate mother."

"No way! I made sure to hide it from her. There's no way she knew," refuted Jing Shaoze. "Even if she did, there's no way she wouldn't make a ruckus, but she's never talked about it. She's never even asked about it."

Jing Shaoze's father was silent for a moment, then he finally said, "No matter what, we must take back that one percent of the shares. If she refuses to give it back, then we won't agree to the divorce."

Jing Shaoze pressed his lips together tightly. He didn't want to get divorced.

The two of them had always got along very well. When he was with Ni Jing, it was very calm and comfortable. It was completely different from the intense passion he felt when he was with Ye Xi.

Jing Shaoze collapsed on the sofa, exhausted. All the events that had recently occurred left him very worn out and on the brink of falling apart.

Ever since Ye Xi arrived at the Jing family, things had fallen out of control. If it weren't for her arrival, he wouldn't have found out that he was infertile. After finally managing to pull himself together, now he was facing a divorce.

Perhaps he hadn't gotten over it at all.

Whenever other people looked at him, he would feel that they were looking at him with ridicule. Even when their gaze was completely normal, he still felt like he was being laughed at.

Jing Shaoze sometimes couldn't quite control his emotions. He was no longer as calm and confident as before.

How could a man who was sterile maintain any self-confidence?

If he could choose, he would rather spend his entire life with Ni Jing and never find out about this. That way, he could even gain a good reputation for loving his wife. He'd have no children because his wife couldn't have children.

It was a pity that he hadn't been able to pull through.

At this time, Jing Shaoze's phone rang. He picked it up and found that it was Ye Xi, calling to ask if he would be coming to her place tonight.

Jing Shaoze was currently very vexed and found everyone to be an eyesore. He was even irritated with his mom. He resented her a little for insisting on finding a surrogate mother and having him sleep with Ye Xi.

He was also annoyed with Ye Xi. If it hadn't been for her, things wouldn't be like this.

He was angry with Ning Shu as well. How could this woman be so heartless and decide to get divorced just like this? She had been completely ruthless towards him and even called the police on him!

Chapter 1297: Touch Ning Shu with Sincerity

Jing Shaoze's heart was currently filled with complaints so Ye Xi's timing was extremely bad.

"Would you die without me?" roared Jing Shaoze in an irritated tone. "Just stay in the house and don't go anywhere! I won't be visiting you for the time being!"

Jing Shaoze then hung up.

At the other end, Ye Xi was holding the phone, completely taken aback. Then her face crumpled and her tears overflowed.

She was a mistress without any dignity, a mistress who could be summoned and dismissed at will.

Jing Shaoze had always treated her like she was dispensable, but she had fallen in love with this heartless man.

The entire Jing family was very worried, but Ning Shu was living very comfortably.

In the Ni family, she could do whatever she wanted and sleep as much as she'd like. She didn't have to go downstairs with Jing Shaoze every morning like she had in the Jing family.

Back there, if she didn't wake up on time, Jing Shaoze's mother would start complaining that she was still lazing about in bed even though her husband had already woken up.

Furthermore, she could do whatever she wanted. It was truly a luxurious, carefree life.

The Ni family parents treated her very well, for fear that she'd be sad because of the divorce.

When Ning Shu saw how affectionate the Ni family parents were towards her, she felt that the original host should come back. After all, she had a family that cared about her so much. It'd be pretty good to come back and spend more time with the Ni family parents.

There was no need to give up her wonderful life because of Jing Shaoze, because of someone completely irrelevant.

The date of the court session had been set. It would start in half a month.

Jing Shaoze would come to the Ni family every day to find Ning Shu in order to make his stance clear. He said that there was no way he'd agree to get divorced.

He was doing his all to save this marriage.

Ning Shu didn't even let Jing Shaoze in the door. If he wanted to shout at the gates, he could feel free to. She closed the windows and the noise immediately decreased.

It was the middle of summer so it was extremely hot outside. Ning Shu felt very comfortable enjoying the AC indoors.

Jing Shaoze kept shouting outside until his mouth was completely dry. The sun's rays were so strong that he was on the brink of panting like a dog.

However, he persisted and kept coming to the Ni family every day, trying to touch Ning Shu with his sincerely.

But Ning Shu, who was practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts while enjoying the AC, was unaware of any of this. What sincerity?

After running for a few days straight, Jing Shaoze finally collapsed. He had gotten heatstroke.

Father Ni called Jing Shaoze's father and directly said, "Your son's fainted. If you don't come and get him, I'll be throwing him out in the middle of the street. If he gets run over, that's your problem."

Jing Shaoze's father was naturally aware of what Jing Shaoze had been up to. However, he allowed Jing Shaoze to do this and make a fool of himself.

As of now, Father Ni was determined to draw a clear line between his family and the Jing family. They were seriously too disgusting.

Jing Shaoze was brought home and put on an IV drip so he couldn't make a scene at the Ni family anymore.

Jing Shaoze once again witnessed Ning Shu's ruthlessness. From beginning to end, she didn't show her face even once. He had fainted from heatstroke, but she didn't even say a word.

How could a person change so fast?

"Your heart doesn't hurt?" asked Ni Yan as he looked towards Ning Shu. "He's been coming here every day, aren't you touched?"

Ning Shu scoffed, "Men just love to use these tricks to make women feel heartache for them and compromise."

Ni Yan lifted his eyebrows. "They say that the heart of a man is like iron, but when a woman hardens her heart, she can also turn out to be pretty ruthless."

Ning Shu curled her lips slightly in disdain. It was fine no matter what a man was like, but the moment a woman became a little determined to do something, they were labeled as ruthless and heartless?

Chapter 1298: 200 Million Yuan

On the day of the court session, Ning Shu arrived at the court with the Ni family.

She encountered the Jing family at the entrance and saw that Jing Shaoze had lost a lot of weight. His skin had also become much darker.

Before, to show his sincerity, he had waited outside her house under the full heat of the summer sun, so he had gotten a lot tanner. The dark skin made him look very unsophisticated.

He didn't seem good-looking at all anymore.

When Jing Shaoze saw Ning Shu, he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. Finally, he closed his mouth and just glared at Ning Shu with resentment.

"Ni Jing, how can you be like this?" Jing Shaoze's mother looked at Ning Shu and said, "If you want to get divorced, just get divorced. What are you kicking up such a big fuss for?"

Jing Shaoze's mother saw that there were a lot of reporters around so she shot Ning Shu a glower.

Ning Shu's lips hooked. "I wasn't the one that called these reporters."

These reporters were like cats that smelled the scent of fish. They had swarmed over since these wealthy family scandals were their favorite topic.

Back then, countless journalists had gone to snap photos of Jing Shaoze and Ni Jing's wedding, calling it the wedding of the century.

However, times have changed. When all was said and done, Jing Shaoze and Ni Jing's marriage only lasted five years. It fell apart before even reaching the 'seven-year itch.'

"You should be grateful that someone even wants to marry a woman like you," said Jing Shaoze's mother contemptuously.

Mother Ni became infuriated. "What did you say? Do you think that people would want someone like your son? He doesn't even have the ability to give birth, but he spends all his time doing the type of things that only animals do. I must have been blind back then to think that you were a good mother-in-law."

"Animal? Are you calling my son an animal?" Jing Shaoze's mother's eyes widened, then she glared at Mother Ni fiercely. "I dare you to say that again?"

This argument attracted the reporters' attention and they immediately started taking pictures.

"Enough, stop causing trouble." Jing Shaoze's father pulled his wife and berated her in a low tone.

Jing Shaoze's father looked at Father Ni. "Old Ni, it's important to be sensible in order to resolve problems properly. If you insist on continuing to blow things up like this, there really will be no going back. Are you determined for us to become enemies?"

Father Ni said offhandedly, "Then let's just be enemies."

Jing Shaoze's father's pupils dilated and his brows furrowed tightly with worry.

The doors of the court opened and Ning Shu went in first with her lawyer. The others then followed her in.

The judge and the jury entered the room and started going through the pre-trial proceedings. Finally, the trial officially started.

Ning Shu sat in the plaintiff's seat, far away from Jing Shaoze, who sat opposite her in the defendant's seat.

The Jing family and the Ni family were sitting in the audience area. There were a lot of journalists also sitting in the audience area.

Ning Shu's defense lawyer directly demanded that Jing Shaoze agreed to the divorce and paid 200 million yuan to compensate Ni Jing for her emotional distress.

As soon as the lawyer said this, the entire court fell quiet. There was only the sound of the reporters rapidly snapping photos.

Jing Shaoze stared at Ning Shu blankly. "Do you know what you're saying? 200 million yuan?"

Ning Shu smiled. Her smile was very gentle as she said, "Of course. This requirement is perfectly reasonable because you're the party at fault. At the same time, I'll be accusing you of visiting a prostitute. "

Ning Shu took out a USB. "The evidence is all in here. I've recorded every single time that you did at home without missing a date."

"This even contains the conversation in which your mother forced Ye Xi into prostitution. She had forced someone into prostitution under the pretext of wanting a surrogate pregnancy," said Ning Shu with a smile. Ye Xi had accepted money from Jing Shaoze's mother. Since money had been involved, it was prostitution. No matter how nicely one put it, it was still prostitution.

The boundary was normally pretty vague so it wasn't necessarily prostitution, but Ning Shu insisted on pinning this charge on it.

Having an extramarital affair was nothing, but if she made this a case related to public security, then it would instantly become a way bigger deal.

Jing Shaoze had enjoyed himself quite a lot back then, so now he should be prepared to pay the price. A loss of 200 million yuan would be enough to make the Jing family feel quite a lot of pain.

However, they hadn't seemed this distress when they gave Ye Xi over ten million to be a mistress.

Chapter 1299: How Could You Do This to Me?

Ning Shu gave the USB to the jury as it contained important information.

The jury plugged the USB stick into the computer and clicked on a video.

The entire court was filled with the sounds from the computer. There was the conversation Jing Shaoze's mother had with Ye Xi, telling Ye Xi to sleep with her son and get pregnant quickly.

She even said that once the child was born, it would be Ni Jing's and Ni Jing would raise it. That way the child could inherit the Jing family and also would also possess a rich maternal family.

Then there was the money Jing Shaoze gave to Ye Xi to have her be his mistress.

The Ni family had already watched these videos before, but their faces still became red with anger when they heard these shameless words.

The reporters in the audience were going crazy. They never imagined that they would encounter such a bloody surrogacy drama. This kind of aristocratic scandal would attract the most readers.

The Jing family was shocked. Jing Shaoze's father's brows were tightly furrowed and he seemed to age greatly in this moment. He had spent half his life dominating the business world and had never expected to be defeated by a cripple of a woman.

Jing Shaoze's father had never cared about Ni Jing since he felt that a woman couldn't possibly make any big waves. However, his moment of carelessness had resulted in a situation that was completely out of his control.

Jing Shaoze's mother's facial color kept changing rapidly. When she saw that the reporters kept taking pictures of her, her heart filled with hatred for Ning Shu.

Jing Shaoze couldn't believe it. He stared at Ning Shu as if she was a complete stranger. "How could you do this? How could you do this? How could you do this to me?"

Jing Shaoze always felt that he still loved Ni Jing, so now he felt very betrayed.

Ning Shu's expression was indifferent. "Well, how could you do that to me?"

Jing Shaoze yanked at his hair angrily. "But you didn't say anything to me! You, you..."

"Why should I have told you?" What was the point in having little arguments? It was way better to just give one fatal strike.

Ning Shu was well aware that her health was not good. If she ended up being killed by the Jing family, her task was done for.

In all honesty, she had only gotten the chance to record these videos because the Jing family had completely disregarded Ni Jing.

If they had paid a little more attention and were a little more cautious, it would have been much more difficult for Ning Shu to get these things.

"I request an adjournment," said Jing Shaoze between gritted teeth. His entire body was trembling.

Ning Shu said lightly, "I refuse to mediate. I will appeal this to the end."

"You..." Jing Shaoze couldn't control his emotions anymore and jumped to his feet. He pointed at Ning Shu and shouted, "Do you have to be like this? Once both sides suffer due to this mess, do you think you'll be comfortable?"

Ning Shu nodded. "I'll be very comfortable. You were comfortable before, now it's my turn."

"You..." Jing Shaoze's expression was very sinister and his lips were almost purple with rage. His body was shaking both from anger and from fear.

"Judge, my defender has asked for an adjournment. My defender currently is not in good health so I beg the judge to adjourn." Jing Shaoze's lawyer hurriedly spoke when he saw how emotionally stirred up Jing Shaoze was.

The judge struck the gavel, "Adjourn for an hour."

Mother Ni quickly got water for Ning Shu. "Hurry and have some water."

Chapter 1300: A Woman Like You

"Can you hold up?" asked Ni Yan.

"I'm fine." Although she was a little out of breath after talking too much, attending court didn't require her to argue so it wasn't a problem.

"Ni Jing, you greedy, malicious woman! You actually want 200 million? You think your broken body is worth 200 million!?" Jing Shaoze's mother yelled at Ning Shu. "The Jing family must have acquired eight generations of bad luck to marry a woman like you! You backstabber! Who would dare take a woman like you?"

"What about those nasty things that you did? The Jing family had married a woman who acted as a pimp and treated the house as a brothel. Getting a woman like you must also be another eight generations of accumulated bad luck," replied Ning Shu unhurriedly.

"Oh right, your son can't have a child anymore so your husband's looking for a surrogate too. I hope you won't encounter a surrogate mother like Ye Xi," said Ning Shu with a sweet smile. "It's not easy to get a child made the natural way after all."

"You..." Jing Shaoze's mother was so angry that her facial muscles were trembling. She pointed at Ning Shu. "You sharp-tongued, vicious wretch!"

Jing Shaoze's mother lifted her hand to slap Ning Shu but Ni Yan caught her wrist and flung her hand away. "Do you think you have the right to hit a member of my family?"

"Enough, stop making a ruckus!" yelled Jing Shaoze's father, his expression dark.

After yelling at his wife, he looked at Ning Shu and said, "This was my fault. As the head of the family, I am to blame for something like this happening."

"You knew about it, but you silently approved," said Ning Shu lightly. "I was simply a fool to the Jing family, a fool that all three of you toyed with. I won't back down on this matter. I want a divorce certificate and 200 million as compensation for the emotional distress."

Jing Shaoze's father's facial color became ugly and he said coldly, "You really refuse to let this go?"

"We refuse! What are you trying to intimidate my daughter for? We will fight this lawsuit to the end!" Father Ni pulled Ning Shu behind him. "Don't forget that your son is currently guilty of visiting a prostitute. You should get ready to have him be detained for at least three months. I'll tell you now, there's no way we'll drop this matter just like this. If it comes to it, we can both get destroyed."

"Look at what a wonderful idea your wife came up with. She wanted to have an illegitimate son inherit the Jing family and maybe even inherit the Ni family? What fanciful thinking! She can keep dreaming!" said Father Ni angrily.

Jing Shaoze's father rubbed his forehead, his facial color extremely poor. He looked at Ning Shu and said, "We can agree to the divorce and give you 200 million yuan, but you have to give back the shares of our company."

When Jing Shaoze's father said the words '200 million yuan,' his lips were shaking. Taking out 200 million yuan so suddenly was way too much for the family enterprise to handle.

Ning Shu smiled gently and said, "Those shares were my premarital property, so they belong to me. You have no right to ask for it."

In order to show their sincerity, the Jing family had given one percent of the shares to the Ni family. Father Ni had then given the shares to Ni Jing.

Ni Jing's name was also written on the share transfer.

At the beginning, Jing Shaoze's father had taken a fancy to the sales channel of the Ni family and his son also liked Ni Jing, so he had taken advantage of the flow.

He exchanged one percent of the shares for a profitable, large cooperation opportunity with the Ni family.

He only allowed Ni Jing to peacefully keep the shares when he learned that Ni Jing had married over with the shares.

"Besides, I've already transferred the shares to someone else," said Ning Shu offhandedly.

Jing Shaoze's father's face darkened but Ning Shu completely ignored it. "I've transferred it to Director Li. As of now, Director Li must have quite a lot of shares."

"There is no way I'll agree to this divorce." Jing Shaoze glared at Ning Shu with disgust. "You know Director Li's ambition, yet you still transferred the shares to him? Ni Jing, you're too vicious!"

Jing Shaoze naturally knew his company's situation. Director Li possessed almost as many shares as the Jing family. It would probably only take a little more for him to overtake the Jing family.

When Jing Shaoze found out that Ning Shu had transferred her shares to Director Li, their rival, and the last bit of tenderness he felt for his wife disappeared.

?Chapter 1301: Don't Worry, I'll Wait for You

Jing Shaoze felt that Ni Jing had never considered herself part of the Jing family, that was why she had been able to do something this disgraceful.

"I've really misjudged you. Ni Jing, if you hate me, you can just take revenge on me! Have you ever considered the possibility that the company would end up falling into Director Li's hands?" Jing Shaoze's entire face was twisted.

Ning Shu smiled gently. "What does that have to do with me?"

Jing Shaoze found the smile on Ning Shu's face to be extremely warped. He had always loved Ni Jing's smile the most. It was gentle and soft, mild but very beautiful. It had always been a touching sight.

But now, all he wanted to do was rip off this face in order to vent his anger and hatred.

"I'd rather die than get divorced. Let's see who holds out the longest!" said Jing Shaoze angrily. "We can all just suffer together."

Ning Shu was completely unfazed and shrugged as she said, "I'm good with that. If today doesn't work, we can try tomorrow. If a week doesn't work, I can wait a month. A month, half a year, a year? I really don't care."

"I'm happy to continue this fight with you. In any case, I don't need to work since there's my parents and my brother to feed me. I have loads of time."

Ning Shu said lightly, "On the other hand, you'll have to be detained for at least half a month. But don't worry, I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you to come back so we can get divorced."

"Oh, and your mom forced someone to go into prostitution, so she's also going to face criminal detention."

By the time Ning Shu finished speaking, the faces of the Jing family members were completely ashen. Jing Shaoze's mother was pressing her hand on her chest like she was about to have a heart attack.

"You really insist on doing this?" Jing Shaoze's father looked at Ning Shu. "Do you think that would be good for your reputation? If you do this, who would dare to marry you after you get divorced? Anyone can make mistakes, you should be more forgiving. It's important to not go too far in your actions to avoid awkward re-encounters in the future. "

"Must all women get married?" asked Ning Shu lightly. "I can live perfectly well without getting married. I can go wherever I want and do whatever I want, when I want. Life is free and unfettered. I wouldn't have to encounter a disgusting in-laws family like yours and always have to humble myself in your home. I wouldn't have to be cheated on by my man and even be told to accept it. And most of all, I wouldn't have to be filial to a father-in-law and a mother-in-law who hadn't even raised me for a day."

"You..." Jing Shaoze's father was so taken aback that he couldn't get any words out.

The hour of mediation was soon over. Ning Shu refused to back down and demanded compensation of 200 million yuan for her emotional distress.

Meanwhile, Jing Shaoze was determined not to divorce.

This lawsuit involved a large amount of money and in addition, the plaintiff and the defendant both refused to budge on their decision, so the case was at a complete deadlock. They had no choice but to suspend the court temporarily and wait for a period of time.

At the same time, this would give the two families time to mediate.

The divorce case was put on hold, but Jing Shaoze's crime of visiting a prostitute held. He was charged with disturbing the public order and was subject to a fine and criminal detention.

Jing Shaoze's mother would also be detained for soliciting.

There was naturally no way Jing Shaoze's father would let his wife and son be detained. He paid the fine and the guarantee fee to bail them out.

The reporters rapidly snapped pictures. Tomorrow's newspapers would be filled with articles about the scandal and the Jing family would become notorious. Jing Shaoze's mother in particular was truly a rarely seen marvel.

The reporters were rather disappointed that the surrogate mother didn't come, but they were soon able to dig out information about Ye Xi based on the clues.

The media called Ye Xi the most expensive surrogate mother ever.

Ye Xi had become Jing Shaoze's mistress, so the only thing she did every single day was wait for him to come visit. She didn't know about any of this.

She only found out when her family called her and was completely taken aback. She never imagined that Jing Shaoze's wife had secretly filmed what happened between her and Jing Shaoze.

Once they got back home, Father Ni said to Ning Shu, "Isn't a compensation of 200 million yuan a little too much? In my opinion, the most important thing is to get divorced."

"It's fine. They won't be able to hold up for long," said Ning Shu lightly.

Chapter 1302: Not That Easy to Take

This was a terrible scandal for the Jing family and every time they went to court, this scandal would be brought up again. The longer they delayed things, the more damage to their reputation they would have to suffer.

It would also allow the ambitious people in the company such as Director Li, to gain more power.

This scandal would be repeatedly mentioned and the media would continue to follow it enthusiastically. The Jing family would be the only one suffering from this.

It would even affect the operation of their company and its stock price.

Once Jing Shaoze calmed down, he also realized his family was the side that would suffer more if they dragged on the divorce.

In court he had been so furious that all the blood had rushed to his head, which was why he had said that he would never agree to the divorce.

Jing Shaoze was a businessman. Even in the most unfavorable situations, he had to guarantee that the loss was minimal. There was no way they could give Ni Jing 200 million yuan for emotional distress.

How dare she dare to ask for 200 million? How was she worth anywhere near 200 million?

Jing Shaoze subconsciously also looked down on Ni Jing because of her illness.

Jing Shaoze wanted to talk to Ning Shu, but Ning Shu paid no attention to him. She directly blacklisted him in every one of her calls and messaging apps.

Jing Shaoze had no choice but to find someone to stay near the Ni family and report to him as soon as Ning Shu stepped out the door. That way, he could go meet her.

Ning Shu would occasionally go out for a walk. There was no way a person could stay cooped up inside all the time.

But as soon as she went out, Jing Shaoze would follow her, saying that he wanted to discuss the issue of the emotional distress compensation.

Jing Shaoze said that he would agree to the divorce, but there was no way they could give her 200 million as emotional distress compensation.

Ning Shu's attitude was very firm. 200 million and not a single yuan less. She wasn't afraid to fight the lawsuit, and just like Jing Shaoze said, she'd like to see who could hold out the longest.

As Jing Shaoze looked at this face, his heart was boiling with anger. He really wanted to just snap this woman's neck.

Ning Shu naturally noticed the murderous intention in Jing Shaoze's eyes. She swung her handbag hard against his face, and then turned and got into her car to go home.

She noticed that someone was surveilling the house and so she called the police.

Ning Shu said to the police, "Jing Shaoze hired people to help him murder me so that he wouldn't have to worry about getting divorced. At the same time, he wouldn't have to worry about the emotional distress compensation of 200 million anymore either."

The police arrested the people carrying out the surveillance and went to confront Jing Shaoze. When Jing Shaoze heard Ning Shu's accusation, he was so angry that he was about to explode. Now he really really wanted to kill this woman.

Jing Shaoze repeatedly told the police that he just wanted to know when Ni Jing would be heading out, that he had just wanted to talk to Ni Jing.

However, the fact that Jing Shaoze had hired people to tail Ning Shu showed impure motives, so repeated attempts to explain only made matters worse.

Ni Yan transferred several security guards from the company to the Ni family home to protect Ning Shu. At the same time, he asked the police to pay more attention to Jing Shaoze.

Jing Shaoze had a motive to kill. If anything happened to his sister, Jing Shaoze was the number one suspect along with the other members of the Jing family.

With this, there was no way for Jing Shaoze to hire people to monitor the Ni family anymore. So he couldn't keep tabs on Ning Shu's situation, much less meet with her.

He had been hoping to finish negotiations before the next court session, but now things were just great. He had been accused of trying to murder his wife and couldn't even go see Ning Shu.

"Forget it. If she wants 200 million, just give her 200 million," said Jing Shaoze's father lightly.

"Dad, why are we giving it to her? 200 million is too much." Jing Shaoze disagreed strongly.

"But this 200 million isn't that easy to take. How dare a woman who can't even give birth ask for so much money?" said Jing Shaoze's father coldly.

Chapter 1303: Let's End This

Ever since the divorce case started, Ye Xi had been staying in the house. She didn't dare to go out because as soon as she went out, other people would start pointing at her and whispering to each other about how shameless she was.

They said that she was the mistress and had slept with someone else's husband under the same roof as that man's wife.

Although things hadn't reached the point where people directly yelled at her, it still troubled her.

She bit her lips tightly. This was the lowest point of her life. Nothing could be worse than how things were right now.

Ye Xi never imagined that the gentle Ni Jing could be so ruthless. At the same time, she felt that Ni Jing had seriously been good at enduring things. She hadn't made any noise even after gaining the evidence.

Ye Xi called Jing Shaoze, hoping he would keep her company. She felt really helpless right now.

Her family also blamed her, saying that she had no self-respect. They said they only wanted her to be a surrogate mother, not for her to become a prostitute.

However, was this money that easy to get? She had done this for the company, for the sake of her father's company, but now they were blaming her for ruining the reputation of the family.

Forget it. She'll just count this as her repayment to them for raising her. From now on, she would live for herself.

When Ye Xi called Jing Shaoze, Jing Shaoze was still trying to come up with a way to avoid paying Ni Jing 200 million, so he was very irritated when Ye Xi called him. He told Ye Xi to just stay at home and not go anywhere.

Actually, Jing Shaoze was also very angry with Ye Xi for not realizing that there was a spy cam in her own room. When Jing Shaoze came back from court, he went straight to the room where Ye Xi used to live, but he found that the camera was no longer there.

He became so furious that he smashed everything in the house.

His heart now chilled. He never knew that his wife was actually someone like this. She had clearly found out that he had cheated on her, but she didn't say a word and acted completely unperturbed.

When he put himself in her shoes, and imagined the scenario in which Ni Jing cheated on him, he became certain that there was no way he would be so calm.

When Ye Xi heard Jing Shaoze's annoyed tone, she covered her mouth and shed tears silently. Finally, she lifted her head and forced the tears back. "Since that's the case, I won't bother you anymore."

Ye Xi hung up and started packing. She couldn't bring herself to stay here any longer. She should just leave in order to end it all.

Once she finished packing, she set the house key on the tea table, then looked over the entire house again. Ever since her father's company started facing an issue, her life had become a calamity and Jing Shaoze was that calamity.

The door suddenly opened, and Jing Shaoze, who said that he wouldn't be coming today, suddenly appeared at the door.

Ye Xi stared at Jing Shaoze in surprise, then her heart filled with joy. She hadn't even realized that she had wanted to see Jing Shaoze this much.

Jing Shaoze's facial color was very ugly and his brows furrowed when he saw the suitcase. He walked up to Ye Xi and demanded, "Where were you planning to go?"

Ye Xi looked towards Jing Shaoze and scanned his face, as if to carve his appearance into her heart.

"You've gotten thinner," murmured Ye Xi softly.

Jing Shaoze grabbed Ye Xi's arm. "I asked you where you were going! Don't forget that you belong to me now."

"You're in this dilemma because of me, so I want to withdraw from this abnormal triangular relationship." Ye Xi felt really tired. "Jing Shaoze, let me off, and also let yourself off. Let's end this."

Chapter 1304: Let's Get Married

"Let you off? Sure, just give me back the money I gave you and I'll let you go." Jing Shaoze's gaze was demonic.

"How could I possibly have that much money? I gave all the money you gave me to my father," said Ye Xi, her eyes wide. Then she bit her lips and said, "I'll pay you back."

"Pay me back? What are you going to use to pay me back? "Jing Shaoze softened his expression and said, "Just obediently stay by my side and don't go anywhere. Let's get married."

"What did you say?" Ye Xi looked towards Jing Shaoze in shock. "Get married?"

Jing Shaoze said earnestly, "Let's get married. I'll give you a grand wedding ceremony. We truly love each other after all, and you'll become legitimate."

"What about Ni Jing?" Ye Xi was stunned. She couldn't believe it. She never imagined that she would be able to get married to Jing Shaoze. She thought that she would forever have to hide in the corner to secretly look at Jing Shaoze.

"Ni Jing? That woman is so vicious. I'm definitely going to divorce her." Jing Shaoze's expression twisted sinisterly when Ning Shu was brought up. He said vehemently, "I never thought that she was actually so greedy, vicious, and selfish."

"But would your parents agree?" asked Ye Xi worriedly.

Jing Shaoze tapped Ye Xi's nose. "Don't worry about those things. All you need to do now is stay here properly and wait for me to marry you. Become my wife and let's live together happily until death do us part.."

"Yes." Ye Xi was crying with joy. The one she loved was Jing Shaoze. It didn't have anything to do with his family background. Even if he was infertile, she still loved him.

Jing Shaoze lifted Ye Xi in a princess carry and headed to the bedroom. Ye Xi's arms were wrapped around Jing Shaoze's neck. She was as obedient as a cat.

When the second court session started, the Ni family headed to court majestically with bodyguards surrounding them.

In contrast, Jing Shaoze's side looked conspicuously empty. There was only Jing Shaoze and his defense lawyer. Jing Shaoze's parents didn't come this time.

When Jing Shaoze saw Ning Shu, his expression was indifferent and his eyes were full of disgust. He sneered and said, "You're not worried about bursting from demanding too big a piece of the pie?"

"Even if I burst, I'd still be happy," replied Ning Shu with a smile.

When Jing Shaoze saw the smile on Ning Shu's face, he wished he could just tear her face off. This hypocritical smile made people sick.

After walking into the courtroom, Ning Shu sat down on the plaintiff's seat and Jing Shaoze sat down on the defendant's seat.

The trial started. Ning Shu's demands remained unchanged: a divorce and an emotional distress compensation of 200 million yuan.

Jing Shaoze sneered, "Aren't you being over fanciful, to actually demand 200 million? You didn't fulfill your responsibilities and obligations as a wife at all during our marriage."

Ning Shu raised her eyebrows and asked, "How did I fail to fulfill my responsibilities and obligations as a wife?"

"Due to your health, we rarely engaged in sexual activity, so even if I went to another woman, it is understandable." Jing Shaoze looked at Ning Shu and said in a ridiculing tone, "You really think you're worth 200 million?"

Ning Shu: Tsk tsk

What a repulsive guy. So now it was her fault? He pushed all the blame to her and acted like he was in the right for cheating on her. That righteous manner of his made her really want to just puke.

Ning Shu sneered, then took out the USB and said lightly, "You've never fulfilled your responsibilities and obligations as a husband either. Ever since Ye Xi arrived in our home, we no longer had any intercourse. Furthermore, you snuck into Ye Xi's room every night."

"Do you want to see it? I've recorded everything. The days and the times are all recorded here." Ning Shu waved the USB. "There's a lot, so no need to hold back."

Chapter 1305: Violation of My Privacy

"You already went to find another woman, yet you're trying to accuse me of not fulfilling my obligations as a wife?" Ning Shu scoffed. That was why she really questioned why women want to get married.

After getting married, you were forced to uphold so-called responsibilities. Jing Shaoze had spent money to buy sex services from Ye Xi, but he now he was talking to his wife about responsibilities and obligations. He had gone to visit a prostitute, and now he was showing disdain for the fact that Ni Jing's body wasn't in good condition so he couldn't enjoy himself.

What a bastard.

In all honesty, Jing Shaoze hadn't spent half as much money on his wife than he did on Ye Xi.

His mistress was living an extremely luxurious life, but he brushed his wife off with excuses about responsibilities and obligations.

"Do you want me to show the videos?" Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze coldly. "Useless trash with no sense of responsibility perfectly describes people like you. Have you fulfilled your duties as a husband to your wife?"

Jing Shaoze's face was ashen as he glanced at the USB in Ning Shu's hand, then he said coldly, "This is a violation of my privacy. You can't use those things as evidence."

Ning Shu said lightly, "As your wife, I have the right to know about your life. You hadn't remained faithful to this marriage so you're the party at fault. I demand 200 million yuan as compensation for my emotional distress. I won't accept a single yuan less."

Jing Shaoze took a deep breath, then clenched his fists as he met Ning Shu's gaze. "Your greediness and maliciousness are seriously disgusting."

"You make me pretty sick too, damned studhorse that can't even control the lower half of his body. And you're even an infertile studhorse," said Ning Shu in a mocking tone.

"You..." Jing Shaoze was trembling with rage.

Ning Shu rolled her eyes. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that there was a person sitting in the audience with a hat and mask on.

It was such a hot day, yet she had covered herself from head to toe like she didn't feel the heat. It seemed rough.

When that person sensed Ning Shu's gaze, she immediately lowered her head.

There was only one person who always lowered her head all the time. She never thought that Ye Xi would secretly come here to listen.

Ning Shu retrieved her gaze and looked towards the judge. "Judge, I'd like to request for a forced divorce. Jing Shaoze and I no longer have feelings for each other so there's no way for us to live together anymore."

Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze and pointed towards the audience. Jing Shaoze looked where she was pointing and saw Ye Xi sitting in the audience.

Since Ning Shu had been able to recognize Ye Xi, Jing Shaoze naturally also realized that this was the person who usually shared his bed.

Jing Shaoze glared at Ning Shu and finally forced out the words, "I agree to the divorce."

Right after saying this, he felt like he had lost all his strength. He said threateningly, "You should be careful. Free money dropping from the sky isn't that easy to keep."

"It's fine. In any case, if anything happens to me, you're the number one suspect," replied Ning Shu offhandedly. "Don't worry, I'll generously squander all of the money you gave me."

Jing Shaoze was so angry that the veins on his forehead were bulging. This woman was so hateful!

The judge was about to announce the result of the trial so everyone stood up. The judge announced that Ning Shu and Jing Shaoze would divorce, and Jing Shaoze would compensate his ex-wife 200 million yuan for emotional distress.

The reporters kept snapping photos of Ning Shu nonstop. From this moment on, Ning Shu was a rich woman.

This two hundred million was enough for her to spend the rest of her life squandering money like crazy.

Ning Shu smiled.

After leaving the court, Ning Shu and Jing Shaoze went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to file for divorce. They soon came back out, each with a green divorce certificate in their hand.

Ning Shu smiled gently. "You'd better hurry up with my compensation. If you don't have enough cash, you can just give me shares of the Jing family. I'm okay with that as well."

"You want to obtain the Jing family's shares? Keep dreaming!" said Jing Shaoze. "Ni Jing, you shouldn't take me to be a fool. You want to dip your finger in the Jing family's company? There's no way I'll allow it."

Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze, then sized him up with disdain. "Tsk tsk, it's not like you'd be able to inherit the Jing family's company. Isn't your dad looking for a surrogate right now? Your job is only to safekeep this company and work hard to keep the company operating until it can be passed onto your brother."

Chapter 1306: A Heart Transplant?

"Ni Jing, no matter what you say, it won't affect me. I know that you harbor bad intentions towards the Jing family, there's no way I'll be fooled by you." Jing Shaoze's expression was cold, but behind his back, his hands were clenched into tight fists.

Ning Shu said lightly, "Then please give me the compensation within two months, otherwise I'll be adding on late fees."

After she said that, she turned and left.

"Ni Jing." Jing Shaoze called out to Ning Shu.

Ning Shu looked at Jing Shaoze. Jing Shaoze said, "I'm going to marry Ye Xi. I hope that you'll come to my wedding."

Ning Shu blinked, then said, "I'm not going. I wish you all the best and that you guys give birth to a son soon."

He wanted to provoke her with something like this? Ning Shu expressed that she didn't feel a thing and even wanted to laugh.

After saying that, she turned around and got in the car.

Father Ni said with a sigh of relief, "You finally got divorced. Girl, don't be angry. Let's go home and just enjoy life."

Ni Yan, who was driving, asked Ning Shu, "What do you plan to do from now on?"

Ning Shu spread out her hands and said, "I think I'll just stay like this. I'll just take a walk from time to time and live carefreely. In any case, I have 200 million."

Ni Yan said, "We'll probably have news about your matched heart soon. After you get the heart transplant, your health will be better than it is now. At that time, you'll be able to go wherever you want to go."

Ning Shu was taken aback for a moment. A heart transplant?

After her task was completed, she would be leaving this world, and the original host Ni Jing had no plans to come back. This would just waste the heart.

In the original storyline, Ni Jing had died on the operating table during the heart transplant.

Ning Shu pressed her lips together and said, "There's no need to rush, Big Brother. A matching heart isn't that easy to get."

Ni Yan glanced at Ning Shu, then lifted his eyebrows and asked, "You're not impatient at all? Don't you want to have a healthier body?"

"Of course. Everyone wants to be healthy," said Ning Shu.

Ning Shu said cheerfully, "If I really get a heart transplant, I definitely have to travel the world."

"You'll definitely get to," said Ni Yan.

"Thank you, Big Brother." Ni Jing was truly blessed to have a family that loved her so much.

After getting divorced, Ning Shu's life was very relaxed and satisfying. However, the TV was filled with Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi showing off how lovey-dovey they were.

Jing Shaoze had made a grand marriage proposal to Ye Xi. That impressive romantic event was every woman's dream.

Ye Xi had nodded with joyful tears in her eyes.

She was now going to marry Jing Shaoze. She was no longer the mistress that had to hide in a dark corner because she had feelings that she shouldn't have. Her entire face immediately lit up with a happy glow.

On TV, she hugged Jing Shaoze's arm with a shy and happy smile while talking with him. She looked very beautiful.

They looked like a talented and beautiful couple.

Jing Shaoze had just gotten divorced, and now he was in such a hurry to get married again. He was even marrying his mistress.

Jing Shaoze could be regarded as the worst of the worst. It was like he was worried that other people wouldn't know that he had an affair.

A lot of people called Ye Xi a shameless homewrecker, especially since they were even making such a public show of affection on TV. Everyone felt extremely disgusted.

Chapter 1307: Full Blessings For a Son

Jing Shaoze sent Ning Shu an invitation and said that she had to come to his wedding to witness this happy moment for him and Ye Xi.

When Ning Shu got the invitation, she threw it straight in the trash. On the day of Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi's marriage ceremony, she sent a basket of red dates, peanuts, osmanthus, and melon seeds.

They had her full blessings that they got a son soon. He wanted to have a competition on who could disgust the other more?

Jing Shaoze and Ye Xi got married very grandly. Their wedding was even bigger than Jing Shaoze and Ni Jing's 'wedding of the century.'

Jing Shaoze had done this on purpose. He even broadcasted it live on TV.

As Ning Shu took in their happy appearances, she curled her lips in disdain. She'd like to see how long they would be able to stay happy.

Marriage was the gravebed of love. After being married for a long time, even if they didn't come to resent each other, their life would still become filled with quarrels and indifference.

What's more, they even had a ticking bomb, which was the fact that Jing Shaoze couldn't have children. This meant that Ye Xi won't ever have children.

Unless she had it with another man.

The so-called happiness was completely superficial. Who knew what things were like behind closed doors?

This grand wedding cost a lot of money. This beautiful dream, this wedding ceremony that every woman felt envious of, was created by burning money.

At first, Jing Shaoze's father hadn't agreed to this since the family still needed to pay 200 million yuan in divorce compensation. However, Jing Shaoze said to his father, "This is all that my life will amount to."

Jing Shaoze was talking about the fact that he couldn't have children. He was extremely depressed, so he wanted to vent somehow.

Jing Shaoze's father had no choice but to let him burn all this money to make this huge scene.

After the wedding, Jing Shaoze's father started looking for a surrogate mother. No matter what, Jing family had to have a successor.

Jing Shaoze's father, for some reason, couldn't help but feel that Ye Xi brought bad luck. It felt like the Jing family's fortune had been stained by her bad luck.

Her father's company had been facing bankruptcy and after she came to the Jing family, Jing Shaoze and Ni Jing got divorced. They ended up having to pay a lot of compensation money and their cooperation with the Ni family also fell apart.

Ni Yan, the eldest son of the Ni family, had withdrawn from all the cooperation plans and while at it, also took away many of the company's customers.

Some companies that they used to work with would no longer work with them either. This was definitely the Ni family's doings. It caused the company's profits to greatly diminish.

The board members were also making a ruckus since they weren't getting as much money as before. The ambitious Director Li was practically hopping with excitement. He looked like he wanted to take over the company immediately.

Jing Shaoze's father was both mentally and physically exhausted, but he couldn't stop looking for a surrogate mother.

There were a lot of women who wanted to gain a connection to a powerful family. When they learned that the Jing family was looking for a surrogate mother, one of them launched an unexpected attack. She directly got Jing Shaoze's father drunk during a business dinner and collected his semen.

She then went to the hospital to get impregnated. Furthermore, it was guaranteed to be a boy.

People would do anything for money.

When Ning Shu found out about this, she just smiled.

Nowadays, she would call the Jing family whenever she had time to urge him to pay her. Sometimes it was Ye Xi who answered the phone. Ye Xi and Jing Shaoze were married now, so she was a lot more confident when facing Ning Shu and no longer withdrew timidly.

She even implied for Ning Shu not to call the house anymore and said that they would definitely give her the money.

Ning Shu's lips hooked. When Ye Xi had been a mistress, she hadn't felt that there was anything wrong about calling the guy. But now that she became the legitimate wife, she was now on guard against being cheated on.

When a mistress managed to get a guy, it was true love. With true love as a shield, they would be successful in every endeavor, so now Ye Xi was on guard against being cheated on herself.

Ning Shu hung up. So that was all that their happiness turned out to be.

The only truly dependable relationship was when both people were independent and encouraged each other to be better versions of themselves while mutually supporting and complementing each other.

They couldn't even achieve the most basic level of equality, so how was she supposed to conquer the man? Was the fact that a man doted on her proof that she had conquered him?

Chapter 1308: Give Me The Money

Ning Shu had just hung up when Jing Shaoze called. He said, "Meet me at the coffee shop. If you want the money, you should come."

Ning Shu lifted her eyebrows. She grabbed the Jiuxin pills, then after a moment of thought, also put an acupuncture needle in her bag. She went with a few security guards to the coffee shop that Jing Shaoze mentioned.

The cafe was empty. Jing Shaoze was the only one inside.

There was a bouquet of red roses in front of Jing Shaoze. Was he trying to flaunt his happy marriage in front of her again?

Ning Shu had the security guards wait at the door and walk into the coffee shop by herself.

"Give me the money." Ning Shu sat down in front of Jing Shaoze.

Jing Shaoze looked towards Ning Shu. It felt like after this period of not seeing her for a while, her face had gotten more ruddy and her complexion was even better than before.

Jing Shaoze picked up the bouquet of roses and handed it to Ning Shu. "For you."

Ning Shu: ( 0 )

Ning Shu was shocked. Shouldn't these flowers be for Ye Xi? Why was he giving them to her?

She couldn't quite wrap her head around this.

"No thanks." Ning Shu didn't take the flowers. "Give me the money."

Jing Shaoze frowned. "Is money all you care about?"

"Yes."

Jing Shaoze took out several checks. "Here's the money you want."

Ning Shu reached out to take the checks, but Jing Shaoze grabbed her hand. She looked towards him.

Jing Shaoze said, "How could it possibly be that easy to get money? Ni Jing, are you really willing to break up with me like this?"

Ning Shu used her other hand to grab the checks, and then slapped Jing Shaoze with the back of her hand. "Quit trying the tricks you use on Ye Xi on me."

Jing Shaoze was stunned by the slap, then he tightened his grip on Ning Shu's wrist. It was like he wanted to crush her bones.

Ning Shu looked towards Jing Shaoze indifferently. "You couldn't be trying to get back together with me, right?"

Jing Shaoze narrowed his eyes. "What if I am?"

Ning Shu: _

"Didn't you marry Ye Xi?" asked Ning Shu.

Jing Shaoze didn't speak.

Ning Shu chuckled, then shook off Jing Shaoze's hand. "You want to trick me out of my money? Keep dreaming!"

How could someone as lustful as Jing Shaoze want to get back together with her?

Ning Shu turned and left. Jing Shaoze got up and grabbed her arm. He said coldly, "How can you only care about money? There's no way I'm letting you leave today. You won't be able to get away. I've reserved this entire coffee shop."

Wow, so impressive. Ning Shu shouted for security and several burly men rushed in.

When Jing Shaoze saw the security guards, he let go of Ning Shu's arm. He looked at Ning Shu and said in an annoyed tone, "You actually brought guards with you to meet up with me?"

"I brought guards because I was meeting up with you," answered Ning Shu with a smile. Her smile became even brighter as she turned toward the security guards. "Beat him up. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility."

The security guards immediately advanced towards Jing Shaoze. Jing Shaoze backed away as he said shrilly, "Ni Jing, are you really going to be this ruthless? What man aside from me would even take a second glance at you?"

"Beat him up! Make sure to hit where it hurts," said Ning Shu coldly.

Jing Shaoze was forced to the corner and soon surrounded by the security guards. He seemed to have been planning to take on all five of them this way, but he had really overestimated his skills. He was instantly taken down.

Chapter 1309: Called the Police

Jing Shaoze was knocked down to the ground by the security guards, so his entire body hurt. After hearing what Ning Shu said, the security guards obediently picked the most painful places to hit.

After being sent crashing to the ground, he couldn't get back up. Ning Shu reached into her bag for the needle, then walked over and slapped Jing Shaoze's back. With this motion, she quickly stabbed the needle into Jing Shaoze's waist.

Jing Shaoze's entire body was in pain. When Ning Shu slapped him like this, he immediately cried out in pain. This ended up covering up the pain that the needle caused.

Ning Shu said coldly, "I know what you're thinking, but you shouldn't treat all women as fools."

The only reason he was putting on this big fake of affection was obviously because he was after these 200 million yuan.

Jing Shaoze was in so much pain that his face was covered with sweat. He turned around and glared at Ning Shu, his eyes red. He was gritting his teeth so hard his gums were almost bleeding. He said angrily, "Ni Jing, I'd like to see just how well you can live after getting divorced."

Ning Shu smiled. "Then watch well. However, I know for sure that you won't be living well at all. A man without any sense of responsibility towards his family, who isn't strict with himself, would never be able to give his wife a sense of security. Your life will only become more chaotic."

No matter how bright of a main lead halo you had, as things continued to get worse, it'll soon crumble.

Indulgence came at a price.

"I wish you the best." Ning Shu turned and left.

Ning Shu went to the bank and cashed the check. A huge amount of money immediately appeared in her account, so she used it to buy a lot of the Jing family's company's scattered shares.

Since the Jing family's company's recent profits weren't good, she was easily able to buy shares from small board members.

Those board members saw that the situation of the company wasn't quite right and Ning Shu was offering a very high price, so they immediately transferred their shares to Ning Shu. This allowed her to soon accumulate a lot of shares.

That day, Jing Shaoze headed back covered in injuries. Ye Xi asked him how he had ended up injured and Jing Shaoze replied that he had gotten beaten up by Ni Jing.

Ye Xi immediately became unhappy. She didn't like the fact that Jing Shaoze had gone to see Ni Jing, so she called Ning Shu to tell her not to meet with Jing Shaoze anymore since they were divorced and such blah blah blah.

Ning Shu rolled her eyes and hung up.

Jing Shaoze was in pain for several days. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He recalled that Ning Shu had called the police on him before so this time, he also called the police. He said that Ning Shu had deliberately beaten him up, that she was guilty of committing intentional injury.

When the police went to see Ning Shu, she said directly, "That was self-defense. At that time, I had checks totaling up to 200 million yuan on me. He had grabbed my arm and was about to steal those checks. The coffee shop probably has a camera. You guys can check the footage."

Jing Shaoze: Pff...

This bitch.

Jing Shaoze had been looking for opportunities to get revenge on Ning Shu, but she was always either at home or when she did go out, she'd go out with an entire parade of people.

Jing Shaoze was furious. She was really taking herself to be something special, wasn't she!?

But it wasn't long before Jing Shaoze no longer had the time to try and cause Ning Shu trouble, because he soon discovered that there was an issue with his body. Which was, his buddy couldn't last as long as before on the bed.

Furthermore, it always took forever for it to get up which made Ye Xi really unhappy and resentful.

Jing Shaoze endured the shame to head to the hospital to get a checkup. The doctor said a bunch about nerve sensitivity and prostate gland problems, then concluded: you need surgery.

When Jing Shaoze heard that he had to get surgery in that area, he was terrified and ran straight out of the hospital.

He then went to find a rather famous traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. The practitioner said that Jing Shaoze had serious kidney deficiency and needed to stop tumbling as much.

Jing Shaoze was stunned. After first losing his fertility, now he was losing this ability as well?

That night, Jing Shaoze insisted on testing with Ye Xi whether or not he really couldn't do it anymore. The result was that he soon went limp.

Jing Shaoze was so angry that he jumped out of bed naked and started smashing everything that could be smashed in the bedroom.

Chapter 1310: If She Had Known Earlier...

Ye Xi stared at Jing Shaoze blankly as she sat on the bed. Her expression was extremely complicated.

The loud noises attracted Jing Shaoze's parents. Jing Shaoze had no choice but to suppress his anger in order to deal with his parents.

There was no way he could tell his parents that he couldn't do it anymore.

The next morning, Jing Shaoze's mother abruptly started cursing at Ye Xi.

Jing Shaoze's mother had always been unhappy with Ye Xi and Ye Xi's family background couldn't compare to that of the Jing's family, so there was no way Jing Shaoze's mother would bother to be polite towards her.

What's more, the current Ye Xi hadn't given birth to a golden grandson for the Jing family like she had in the original storyline, so Jing Shaoze's mother despised this daughter-in-law a lot.

Ye Xi felt very helpless and hurt. At this time, Jing Shaoze was just in a daze. It didn't even occur to him to speak up for her.

Ye Xi's heart chilled. She started to mourn the rest of his life.

She thought that she would be so happy from now on, she never imagined that this would be the outcome. If she had known earlier...

If she had known earlier, she would've just hardened her heart to walk away from all of this right at the beginning. If she had, at the very least, she wouldn't have fallen to the state. She would never have a child in this lifetime, and though she had a husband, she may as well be a widow.

Life seemed hopeless.

This was what she had wanted, but after she obtained it, it was completely from what she had imagined.

Jing Shaoze's mother now had a horrible reputation. Even if there was a party, she wouldn't be invited.

Since Jing Shaoze's mother had nothing to do all day, she started settling into her role as a mean mother-in-law and coming up with all sorts of ways to torment Ye Xi.

There were clearly servants at home, but she insisted that Ye Xi did the laundry, cooking, and cleaning.

Ye Xi was infuriated. In the end, Jing Shaoze finally couldn't look on anymore and spoke up for Ye Xi a little. Jing Shaoze now felt very guilty when facing Ye Xi. After all, he couldn't do dat anymore.

Just as Jing Shaoze's mother was getting high on tormenting Ye Xi, a woman came to the house with a bulging stomach.

The pregnant woman arrogantly said that the child in her belly belonged to Jing Shaoze's father. Furthermore, it was a boy and would be the future heir of the Jing family.

Jing Shaoze's mother instantly went crazy. She reached for whatever she could grab to smash it at the woman's stomach in order to get rid of the bastard child.

The woman naturally protected her child since it was her bargaining chip.

Ye Xi just stood at the side and looked on coldly. She didn't go help Jing Shaoze's mother and actually had a wide grin on her face.

Jing Shaoze's father, who had gotten the news, soon came back from the company. He stared blankly at the woman whose stomach was bulging slightly.

Jing Shaoze's father found this woman completely unfamiliar. He couldn't believe that it was his child in her stomach.

The woman had no choice but to reveal how she had managed to get pregnant with his child. Furthermore, she emphasized that the child was definitely a boy.

When Jing Shaoze's mother heard that this shameless woman had stolen her husband's sperm, she was so angry that she insisted on beating this woman to death.

Jing Shaoze's father didn't dare to take such a risk. What if this child really was his child?

Jing Shaoze's mother was so angry that she wanted to just jump off a building. She wished she could just drag this hatefully smug woman down to hell with her.

Jing Shaoze's mother was very scared and uneasy. This woman was young and beautiful, and she was even pregnant with her husband's child.

She had already gotten old. Would she be able to keep her husband faithful? What if her husband ended up being seduced by this woman?

Jing Shaoze's mother felt like there was a knife stirring in her heart, cutting it up. It was so painful that she could barely breathe.

?Chapter 1311: Had Come for Wealth and Glory

This pregnant woman had clearly come for wealth and glory, so there was no way she would stubbornly endure things silently like Ye Xi had.

She even said that she wanted to nurse her pregnancy here in this luxurious villa.

Jing Shaoze's mother immediately exploded. She yelled towards Jing Shaoze's father, "If this house takes her in, then I'm gone! Who the hell knows where that bastard in her stomach came from!? How dare she blackmail Jing family with it!?"

"My child is definitely Mr. Jing's. We can go to the hospital to take some amniotic fluid for a DNA test," said the pregnant woman

"This child is the future heir of the Jing family, so what's wrong with me nursing my pregnancy here?" The pregnant woman smiled and glanced at Jing Shaoze's father coquettishly. "Mr. Jing, could it be that you want to see your son suffer?"

Jing Shaoze's mother was so angry that she felt dizzy. She kept screaming, "You shameless bitch! I hope your child will be born without an f*cking ass!"

Jing Shaoze's mother was normally a graceful middle-aged lady, but there was no way she could stay calm after encountering something like this. Her reaction was no different from a fisherman's wife.

Ever since Jing Shaoze was found out to be infertile, Jing Shaoze's mother could no longer keep her cool. Furthermore, the event that she had been the most worried about had actually occurred.

How was she supposed to endure this? What else was left in her life?

"Enough." Jing Shaoze's father became unhappy when he saw her cursing at the child. Based on this woman's confident manner, it is very likely that this child was his.

Jing Shaoze's mother stared blankly at her husband, then screamed, "I'm your wife! I was the one that had been by your side all these years, but you actually yelled at me for this shameless vixen!?"

Jing Shaoze's mother reached out and scratched Jing Shaoze's father's face. Her nails were very long and beautifully manicured, so it instantly left several scratches on Jing Shaoze's father's face. Some of them were very deep.

Jing Shaoze's father slapped her hard, sending her crashing to the ground. "You should take a look at yourself in the mirror! You actually dared to attack me!?"

Jing Shaoze quickly helped his mother up and said with disapproval, "Dad, how could you hit Mom?"

Jing Shaoze's father could feel his face sting with pain. "Look what she did!"

Jing Shaoze's mother threw herself into Jing Shaoze's arms and started wailing. As Ye Xi looked on, her lips curved up slightly.

"If I'm not allowed to nurse my pregnancy here, I'll get an abortion." The pregnant woman lifted her belly slightly. "You'd better think it through. This is the heir of the Jing family right here."

Jing Shaoze's mother glared at her and said vehemently, "If you have the guts, go get an abortion! Even if you don't get an abortion, I have ways to make you get a miscarriage, as long as you dare to live here."

The pregnant woman took a couple steps back, then said, "It's also fine if I don't stay here. However, you guys must buy a house for me so I can nurse my pregnancy in peace."

"Keep dreaming!" shouted Jing Shaoze's mother angrily. "You want a house? Keep dreaming!"

Jing Shaoze's father rubbed his forehead, but he compromised for the baby. He signed an agreement with this pregnant woman. It stated that once the baby is born, it has nothing to do with her. In exchange, he bought her a house and paid her a nutrition fee.

However, if the baby in her stomach turned out not to be of the Jing family, the consequences weren't something she could endure.

The woman readily agreed, then deliberately supported her waist as she walked away. Before leaving, she even shot Jing Shaoze's mother a provocative look.

Jing Shaoze's mother was so angered by this woman's arrogant manner that she was about to go crazy. If it weren't for the fact that Jing Shaoze had pulled her back, she definitely would've run to the kitchen to get a knife and stab this woman to death.

Chapter 1312: Now Had the Right to Vote

It was so hateful. How could there exist such a shameless bitch?

After the pregnant woman left, Jing Shaoze's mother turned her full attention on her husband. She cried while demanding to know if he had done anything with that vixen.

Jing Shaoze's father became very irritated and headed directly to the company. At the same time, he took care of issues with the house for the pregnant woman so that she could nurse her pregnancy without worries.

The pregnant woman was very smart. She insisted that the property certificate had her name on it, otherwise she'd go straight to the hospital to have an abortion.

Jing Shaoze's father endured it for the sake of his child. He bought a house for this woman and the certificate was in her name.

At the same time, he made up his mind. If the child wasn't his, he'd make this woman wish that she was dead.

Jing Shaoze's father didn't tell his family where the house that he had bought for the woman was located. He made sure to, in particular, keep it from his wife, otherwise there would be another huge scene.

Nothing had happened at all, yet she was going crazy trying to pick faults and making the entire family uneasy.

Jing Shaoze's father had no way of controlling the situation anymore. Things didn't seem to have a bottom point, it just kept getting worse.

Jing Shaoze's mother was now always causing a ruckus. Jing Shaoze's father rarely went home anymore because he wanted to avoid her. He stayed at the company all day and sometimes even went to the pregnant woman's house to sit for a while.

This man was her bankroller, so the pregnant woman was naturally very sweet to him. This man who had become tired of his wife making a scene all the time quite enjoyed this feeling.

So he started coming here all the time in the name of checking on his child. Sometimes he would even go with the woman to her checkups, leaving Jing Shaoze's mother all alone in the luxurious villa.

Jing Shaoze's mother had been worried about her position from the start and now a woman had shown up to destroy their relationship. How could she possibly take it?

If Jing Shaoze's father didn't go home, Jing Shaoze's mother would run to the company to make trouble. Not only did she make the house a mess, she also made the company a mess.

In any case, there was a restless and frantic atmosphere hovering around the entire Jing family. It was like a bow string pulled past taut, ready to snap at any moment.

Compared with the stormy clouds the Jing family was dealing with, Ning Shu was living very comfortably. She'd practice the Unsurpassable Martial Arts in her free time or go out to deal with a few things.

Before, some stockholders of the Jing family's company had sold their shares to her, so some small stockholders started taking the initiative to look for her. They said that they wanted to sell their shares to her.

There was a very strange atmosphere hovering around the company now. In any case, it gave people a very bad feeling. There was no longer any positive and inspiring energy and the shareholders were receiving less and less dividends. The share price of the company was also dropping.

Some small stockholders heard that Ning Shu had been purchasing shares at a premium, so they contacted her to transfer their shares to her.

Since they had come to her of their own initiative, she naturally had to reduce the price. There was no way she could pay a high price again. When these stockholders saw her reduced price, they became even more certain that the company had no future.

They wanted to hurry and get out early so that these stocks didn't end up becoming worthless in their hands. Ning Shu's price was a little higher than that of the stock market, so these stockholders hastily sold their shares to her.

At this point, Ning Shu spent pretty much all of that 200 million yuan. She exchanged all of it into shares of the Jing family's company. As of now, she had enough stocks in her hands to join the board of directors.

She now had the right to vote.

All she had to do was wait for the right time to change the name of the Jing family's company. There were plenty of people eyeing the Jing family's company.

For example, there was Director Li, the second largest shareholder of the company. He had been eyeing the company for a long time, trying to gain control of the company and making it belong to the Li family.
