Ji Yemo reached Ruan Xixia’s side first. As soon as he touched her hand, he sensed her abnormal body temperature. He frowned and felt her forehead, cursing lowly, "Didn’t you notice she’s got a fever? Yet you let her stand outside in the cold wind!"

Liang Qianli was momentarily stunned. Thinking back, her face was indeed paler than usual, with a faint flush. But earlier, he was absorbed in his own anger and hadn’t considered she’d be sick...

He sheepishly touched his nose, "I’ll call a doctor over."

Ji Yemo, with a face like water, lifted Ruan Xixia into his arms and carried her to her room.

Aunt Liu brought over some ice and towels, and Ji Yemo personally helped cool her down. After about ten minutes, the doctor finally arrived.

After setting up the IV and administering the medication, they toiled for quite a while.

Looking at Ruan Xixia’s sickly face on the bed, Ji Yemo’s suppressed rage erupted. He grabbed Liang Qianli and threw a few punches at him.

Liang Qianli, knowing he was in the wrong, didn’t fight back much, ending up bruised and panting against the wall.

Ji Yemo dusted off nonexistent dust from his clothes and coldly said, "She told you to stay away from her, so stay far away and stop bothering her!"

"You’re just afraid I’ll win her over and you’ll lose your chance!" Liang Qianli sneered.

"So what if I am?" Ji Yemo raised an eyebrow, "I have Miaomiao. What do you have?"

That sentence choked Liang Qianli half to death.

He looked at Ruan Xixia with a complex expression, then at Ji Yemo, and thought of that little girl called Miaomiao...

Honestly, that little girl really took after both of them, having similarities with both...

Could she really be their biological child?

"Is Miaomiao really your and Xixia’s child?" Liang Qianli tentatively asked, "We’re all brothers, no need to hide it from me, right?"

"What’s it to you?" Ji Yemo deflected nonchalantly.

Liang Qianli: "..."

Just as he was about to press further, Ji Yemo’s phone rang. He answered it, and his already not-so-good expression turned even gloomier.

"What happened?" Liang Qianli, sharply, sensed something was wrong.

Ji Yemo opened Weibo, quickly skimmed through it, and opened the top trending post.

[Explosive! Actress Ruan Xixia pregnant out of wedlock! Evidence below!]

Below was an attached audio file.

Clicking it open, there was a noisy sound. The distinct sharp voice of Liang Zuyue appeared—

"Do you think she’s really as pure as she looks on the surface? Let me tell you, the year she studied abroad, she not only slept with a man but also got pregnant with a bastard! She’s kept it a secret from the whole world, hasn’t told anyone. She’s not nearly as clean as you think!"

"..."

On hearing this voice, Liang Qianli’s expression abruptly changed.

More conversations from yesterday followed, all pointing at Ruan Xixia!

"There were only four of us in the room yesterday. Liang Qianli, was this your doing?" Ji Yemo asked gravely.

Liang Qianli flatly denied, "How could it be me! Zuyue... fuc-k, how could that brat be so reckless!"

Ji Yemo looked terribly upset, contacting someone to deal with the matter. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Worried Ji Yemo might target Liang Zuyue, Liang Qianli hurriedly said, "Zuyue is still young, just a child. I’ll teach her a lesson when I get back, please, don’t pursue this..."

"She’s still a child, huh." Ji Yemo smiled cruelly, "Well, of course—we can’t let her off then!"
