Chapter 99, Afraid of me? Then listen to me

came urgently, "…Don't teach her about mutual respect and understanding. Tell her to go find trouble with Jun Zhimu!""Oh, come on, Qiao Wenyu, just stop it. We just want them to get along peacefully a..."You've been keeping an eye on her Moments!"

A woman, her face full of anger, rushed forward and snatched the phone from the man sitting on the sofa.

"Ye Xi, give me back my phone!" Yi Sicheng immediately stood up and glared at her angrily.

"Jo Bao'er is your sister-in-law, and she's pregnant with Jun Zhi Mu's child. Wake up!" Ye Xi shouted angrily at him.

"It's none of your business!"

Yisi Chen stepped forward and quickly snatched back his phone. His face was cold as he glared at the woman before him, "Leave here immediately, Ye Xi, you have no right to stay at the Yi family!"

After what she had done was exposed, Yi Sicheng would grit his teeth every time he saw her.

Ye Xi was guilty, but she raised her voice and said, "I know I did some wrong things in the past, but we are already married. We're husband and wife, aren't we supposed to forgive each other..."

"Don't come back and disgust me again, get out now!"

As soon as he thought of her collaborating with Jun Zhi牧 to scheme against him, Yi Sicheng's anger surged and his mood became extremely agitated.

Ye Qi has been clinging to him these days, she thinks Yi Sicheng will forgive her eventually, but after half a month, he is still as cold and stern as ever.

"Yisichen, you really...are you really going to make things difficult for me The Qiao family isn't someone to be trifled with!" she said angrily, threatening him.

Yi Sicheng immediately sneered, "The Qiao family"

"You're so brazen to bring up the Qiao family to intimidate me. You have such a thick face! What's your relationship with Qiao Wenyu anyway Qiao Baor doesn't even mention him. He's just your brother-in-law!"

He felt intensely averse to her, like he hated a person, like he hated everything about her.

My sister said that if your Yi family dared to bring up divorce, the Qiao family definitely wouldn't let you off! Ye Xi was so angry that she blushed.

Yes, their wedding was canceled, but they had already gotten married, making them legally husband and wife. A second marriage definitely lowers one's status, so Ye Xi clung to him no matter what; she wanted to be Mrs. Yi.

"Yo, think you can get away with just latching onto the Qiao family"

Yi Sicheng sneered and laughed sarcastically, "Ye Xi, go ask your sister, is the Qiao family about to change their name now… They might look impressive with such a powerful backing as Jun Shi, but they know deep down that the Qiao family has caught Jun Zhimu's eye. Qiao Wenyu himself can't even protect himself, so what power does he have to threaten me."

By the end, Yi Sicheng's face was also quite grim, especially when he said the three words 'Jun Zhi Mu', biting down hard on each syllable.

Ding Dong...

Jo Baoer's phone has been very busy these past few days, all thanks to Zhu XiaoWei. She loves bothering her all the time, whether there's something going on or not.

After dinner, she curled up in her bedroom and was logging onto a forum on her laptop to read some posts about pregnancy.

She originally thought it was Zhu Xiaowei who called to bother her, but it wasn't. It was Old Mrs. Qiao.

"Baby, how are you doing lately Is Zhimu treating you well"

Jo Baoer, hearing this snobbish grandmother actually caring about her, suddenly had a bad feeling.

"We're just like any other normal couple, nothing special."

"That is, to be as loving and harmonious as husband and wife. When you sleep at night, talk more to each other, which can deepen your relationship..."

Jo Baoer listened more and more, feeling something was amiss. She directly questioned, "What exactly happened"

Grandma Qiao didn't bother with polite words either, her tone a bit hurried, almost commanding.

"Bao'er, tell Zhi Mu that about the steel plates being switched for the cross-sea bridge project last month, our Qiao family really knew nothing about it. It was all because of your distant cousin, his greed got the better of him. Tell Zhi Mu not to misunderstand, this matter absolutely cannot harm our Qiao family…"

Qiao Bao'er's expression was stunned. She remembered this distant cousin. The bloody scene in the basement was something Jun Zhimu had deliberately taken her to see.

"It's company business, I can't interfere," she replied with a complex tone.

"What are you talking about!"

On the other end of the phone, Old Mrs. Qiao's face darkened, and she angrily scolded, "If something happens to your father, you won't have a good life either. Now our Qiao family almost relies on the Jun family. You handle our Qiao family's affairs yourself." After that, she hung up the phone directly.

They only see her as a tool, what kind of family is that I really want to cut them off! So frustrating!!!

But she put her phone back on the desk, sat quietly on the sofa, and thought about it for a while.

Jun's support for the Qiao family, however, unknowingly grasped the very lifeline of their existence. Qiao Bao'er didn't believe he would truly harm them; his actions seemed more like a way to restrain them.

"No wonder those people wouldn't dare to offend him…" because they were involved too.

Everyone in the business district knows that making an enemy of Junzhi Mu is never a wise decision...

"What are you doing"

She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't notice the door opening, and Junzhi Mu just suddenly appeared before her.

Jo Baoer looked at him, her body instinctively tensing up, "N-no, I didn't do anything."

"I was reading some posts on parenting forums..." She turned her head, avoiding his gaze, and mumbled an excuse hastily.

"A post" Jun Zhi Mu still stood before her, his voice ambiguous.

"It's this forum, there are quite a lot of expectant mothers, they often share their experiences,"

Joe Bao spoke quickly, turning the laptop screen on her desk toward him as if proving she wasn't lying. She told him earnestly.

They said that when they were pregnant, their husbands felt uncomfortable and it was easy for them to cheat... Then they shared some experience about what methods could help men.

"They said they could use a bullet cup," Qiao Baier became serious as she spoke.

She tilted her head, very confused. "Junzhi Mu, what is a broken plane"

Now, Jun Zhi Mu's cold and stern face twitched.

"Don't play too much on your phone and computer while pregnant. Go to bed and rest." He lowered his voice and changed the subject.

Qiao Baoer calmed down a lot, quickly packed up her computer and turned it off, went to the bathroom to wash her face, and went to bed.

Jun Zhimu went to the study bathroom to take a shower, and after coming out, he continued back to his desk to review the documents.

However, he seemed somewhat absentminded.

He could feel that she was very afraid of him.

"It's because of last time..." He turned his head to look at the pitch-black night outside the window, remembering how he had forcibly taken her to the basement last time. She was truly frightened.

Feeling agitated, I simply left the study and returned to my bedroom to rest.

The woman in bed was already fast asleep.

Recently, she's been much calmer. Junzhi Mu lifted the blanket and naturally lay beside her.

His arms encircled her waist, drawing her gently into his embrace. Qiao Bao'er did not resist; she seemed to have grown accustomed to it, her face rubbing against his chest for a moment before relaxing with a contented expression, sleeping peacefully and soundly.

Junzhi Mu looked at her little actions, his heart feeling a strange flutter of excitement and confusion.

He reached out, his five fingers gently combing through her silky hair. "Afraid of me" he murmured softly.

He pulled her closer, his thin lips brushing against her ear.

"Jo Baoer, if you're really afraid of me, then don't make me angry." His voice was low and heavy, like a warning, anger, and a hint of helplessness. of the day, she worked with club staff trying to figure out how to re-establish contact.Unbeknownst to me, at this very moment, when things in the front yard were still unresolved, a fire broke out i...
