CHAPTER 342: CHAPTER 342: THE RIVAL IN LOVE IS ALSO PREGNANT

"Gynecology?" Wen Jianan was surprised.

Feng Qianru gently said, "I heard that your hospital has a famous gynecologist, so I hope he can help me regulate my body. I’ve not been in good health for a long time, and now that I’m finally pregnant, I hope to maintain this child well."

"Pregnant?" Wen Jianan was surprised again.

Feng Qianru nodded.

It took Wen Jianan a while to recover from the shock, and he hurriedly nodded, saying he would arrange it immediately.

He left the office and immediately went to find Ningwan.

"Do you know what illness Feng Qianru is here for?"

Ningwan frowned, looking at him in confusion.

"You seem so shocked. It can’t be AIDS, right?" Wu Taotao joked.

Wen Jianan said, "She’s here to maintain the pregnancy, so she’s pregnant."

"What? Whose child?" Wu Taotao asked.

Ningwan’s heart sank as she touched her own belly.

Her baby was already more than two months old.

Wen Jianan said, "Zhan Hanjue brought her here. Whose child do you think it is? I see Zhan Hanjue treasures her a lot. Ningwan, do you still plan to study Zhan Hanjue?"

"Research, stick to the plan," Ningwan was resolute.

Hearing about Feng Qianru’s pregnancy, her heart ached more than anyone else’s.

But she still wanted to know the truth, at least to help Zhan Hanjue regain clarity.

"Alright then, since you’re so determined, let’s stick to the plan," Wen Jianan saw her resolve and didn’t try to persuade her further.

The group split up to act.

Wen Jianan took Feng Qianru away, leaving Zhan Hanjue waiting in the office.

Zhan Hanjue frowned, "Can’t I go with her?"

Wen Jianan said, "Traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine are different. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the observation of the patient’s condition, so it’s better to keep the environment quiet."

Feng Qianru said, "Hanjue, wait here for me."

Zhan Hanjue nodded.

Feng Qianru and Wen Jianan left.

A nurse came in to bring Zhan Hanjue a cup of tea.

Zhan Hanjue did not drink it, seemingly cautious not to use food from outside casually.

However, he didn’t expect that this cup of tea was not for drinking but for smelling.

Soon, Zhan Hanjue began to feel dizzy and quickly slumped onto the table.

When he woke up again, he smelled a strong aroma of medicine.

He couldn’t help but open his eyes and found that he was actually tied to a chair.

"You’re awake. I’m sorry. I know it’s uncomfortable like this. But I need to do some research. Please cooperate, and I’ll let you go once I’m done," Ningwan explained hurriedly when she saw him awake.

Zhan Hanjue looked around and asked, "Where is this place?"

Ningwan said, "It’s a safe place. Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you."

"I know you won’t hurt me," Zhan Hanjue said with a sullen expression.

Ningwan looked at him in surprise, "You know? Also, you weren’t very surprised to see me after waking up. Did you know I would come to find you?"

"Of course I knew," Zhan Hanjue sneered, "The Xie Family is no longer willing to have you. Xie Mingyu was forcibly sent abroad by his grandfather. You probably knew this a long time ago. Having lost the Xie Family, of course you’d want to return to the Zhan Family, back to my side. So, finding me was inevitable."

Ningwan frowned.

She didn’t actually know that Xie Mingyu had been forcibly sent away by his grandfather.

Since falling out with the Xie Family, she hadn’t contacted them.

Even for Old Sir Xie, she couldn’t fully trust him.

After all, Old Sir Xie’s indulgence towards Xie Mingyu was without limits.

Who knows, maybe Xie Mingyu’s crying and whining would cause Old Sir Xie to conspire with him to betray her.

Besides, she had been trying to see Zhan Hanjue these days, not knowing about matters with the Xie Family.

"Still feigning ignorance?" Zhan Hanjue sneered.

Ningwan bit her lip, touched her belly, and looked at Zhan Hanjue, asking, "So, you’re lucid and haven’t lost your memory. Do you remember everything about us?"

"Of course," Zhan Hanjue said with a cold expression.

But there was a fleeting, almost imperceptible, difference in his eyes.

Hearing him admit it, Ningwan’s heart broke, and she didn’t notice the change in his eyes.

"I don’t believe it. I want to try something," Ningwan bit her lip.

She took out an incense and placed it under Zhan Hanjue’s nose.

This was taught to her by Jin Yingzi. If Zhan Hanjue really had a Gu Worm, this scent would cause it to react.

"What is this?" Zhan Hanjue frowned and questioned.

Ningwan said, "Bear with it. It won’t harm your body."

However, Zhan Hanjue endured for a long time and nothing happened.

Ningwan dropped the incense to the ground.

No Gu Worm; he was lucid, recognized her, and knew many things.

Yet, he misunderstood.

How could this be possible?

Ningwan suddenly threw herself at Zhan Hanjue, hugging him, and choked out, "Jue, you shouldn’t have treated me like this. You remember everything. How can you forget, you told me you loved me, and being with me was your greatest fortune. For me, you didn’t even want your life. Have you forgotten all that?"

"I haven’t forgotten. Perhaps I once truly felt for you. But that was in the past, and now Qianru is back," Zhan Hanjue said slowly.

Ningwan slowly let go of Zhan Hanjue, looking at him in disbelief.

"All along, the one you loved was Feng Qianru?"

"I’m sorry," Zhan Hanjue apologized, but quickly added, "But you also used me, so we’re even."

Ningwan’s eyes were filled with tears.

At that moment, the door was suddenly kicked open.

Feng Qianru rushed in with others.

"Hanjue, are you alright?"

Feng Qianru immediately had someone untie Zhan Hanjue.

Zhan Hanjue shook his head, held her arm, and asked, "Are you alright?"

"I’m fine, just worried when I knew you went missing."

"Guards, seize this woman for me," Feng Qianru angrily ordered, pointing at Ningwan.

Jin Yingzi and Wu Taotao also rushed in, trying to protect Ningwan.

But Ningwan was now disheartened; she no longer cared whether she would be caught or not.

Just seeing Zhan Hanjue protecting Feng Qianru like that, her heart was already shattered.

"Hold on."

Just as the bodyguards were about to seize Ningwan, Zhan Hanjue suddenly spoke up.

The bodyguards stopped.

Feng Qianru looked at him in surprise, "Hanjue?"

Zhan Hanjue said, "Forget it, although our fate has ended, after all, we were once married. Ningwan, everything you wanted to ask is clear now, and from now on, we have nothing to do with each other. You can leave! Just don’t appear in front of me again. Regarding Grandma’s incident and your betrayal, I can forgive and not pursue your responsibility."

"Nothing to do with each other? Zhan Hanjue, have you forgotten the words you said when we parted? Do you really not remember them at all?" Ningwan asked tearfully.

Seeing Ningwan’s tears, Zhan Hanjue’s expression softened, his eyes narrowing.

Why did he feel such a pain in his heart?

Seeing her tears, why was there a heart-wrenching feeling?
