I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2703 - 1679: Do You Want the Child or Not?
Previously on I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping...
Before turning off the car, Li Shuru glanced at the time.
9:48
Then, she looked out of the car window.
The two-billion-dollar mansion was brightly lit, illuminating the thick night, bright and cozy.
But for some reason, she subtly felt that something was not quite right.
After the quarrel, they had reconciled, and she no longer needed to work late as a pretense. Coming back so late today was truly helpless.
It was all Luo Peng’s fault.
Work was her duty, but she could have left at seven. However, Luo Peng insisted on taking her for a late-night snack and also invited Bai Zheli, and then they were delayed until now.
Sigh.
Mr. Luo’s work ability was indeed excellent, and he completed the tasks beautifully.
After sitting in the car for a while, unable to figure out why things felt off, Li Shuru opened the car door, stepped out, and, in her high heels, walked slowly but steadily towards the entrance.
When she entered the house and passed through the entryway, she immediately realized what the problem was.
"What... happened here?"
Indeed, there would be no intuition without reason.
Seeing the furniture toppled over in chaos, Li Shuru couldn’t help but be stunned.
Wow.
Even the TV was smashed.
But there was still someone sitting comfortably in the "ruins," at least they appeared calm from behind.
After a moment of pause, Li Shuru continued walking forward.
Someone finally turned their head, their expression... very strange, indescribable with words.
A feeling of uneasiness grew inside Li Shuru’s heart.
From acquaintance to love.
She had never seen him like this.
"What happened?"
Looking around and quickly calming down, Li Shuru asked calmly, showing a sense of composure.
Though from a regular working-class family, the environment can change a person. One cannot choose their birth, but demeanor can be developed later.
Someone tried to force a smile, but, like life, sometimes even your own body won’t obey your will.
"Liuli had a fight with someone."
Not only was expression management failing him, but his voice was also somewhat hoarse.
"Liuli’s back?"
Of course, Li Shuru noticed his anomaly, but she remained steady and looked upstairs.
"Yes."
"Don’t tell me it was with Miss Lan."
Li Shuru came over and sat beside him.
Jiang Chen, whose head was spinning, took a deep breath: "It was with... a friend of mine from abroad."
"Not feeling well?"
Jiang Chen shook his head, "No."
It was obvious he was being insincere, but smart women know a truth.
Wisdom sometimes lies in feigned ignorance.
"Why did Liuli fight with your friend?"
Seeing the mess, Li Shuru was not angry but instead asked with a smile.
"No one got hurt, right?"
"My friend got slightly injured. Liuli didn’t know her, thought it was a burglar, and I happened to be in the Martial Saint room. By the time I ran out after hearing the noise, it was already like this."
Li Shuru nodded, "No worries, just call housekeeping to clean up tomorrow."
Coming from a "humble" background yet able to stand strong amidst fierce competition, there was a reason for that.
Looking at his considerate girlfriend, Boss Jiang’s heart was even more tumultuous, remaining silent.
"Where’s your friend? Did she go to the hospital?"
"I asked her to stay here for the night."
Sakura originally insisted on leaving, but when someone got angry, Sakura ended up staying.
Logically speaking.
As a Death Warrior, she would only obey one person’s orders, and no one else could possibly make her submit.
"You don’t mind, do you?"
"Mind what? There are so many rooms."
Li Shuru smiled indifferently, "Didn’t your friend notify you before she came looking for you?"
Jiang Chen stiffly pulled his lips, "People from their place aren’t as ceremonial as we are."
Li Shuru chuckled, casually asking, "From where?"
"Japan."
Li Shuru nodded, noticing the phone still lying on the floor.
"Why didn’t you pick up your phone when it fell?"
She bent down, retrieved it, and handed it over.
Forget about the phone, if she hadn’t come back, someone might have sat there spacing out all night.
"I’ll go check on your friend."
Li Shuru got up; indeed, there were too many rituals in Shen Zhou.
"No need."
Jiang Chen grabbed her wrist, "She’s a bit of a loner, not too fond of interacting with people."
Li Shuru was surprised but didn’t insist, "I’ll go upstairs and take a shower first."
Jiang Chen responded with an "Mm."
Truly, she was too understanding.
Didn’t she notice that her boyfriend was unsettled and decided to give him some space?
What more could one ask for?
After Li Shuru went upstairs, Jiang Chen lowered his head, looking at the unbroken phone in his hand, gradually tightening his grip.
At this moment, he actually had more reasons to make a call, yet he inexplicably lost the courage.
It must be understood that to achieve his current success, apart from a thick skin, courage had paved the way for him.
"Sigh——"
He slowly leaned back on the sofa, staring at the ceiling, his eyes unfocused.
Sakura brought two pieces of news.
Each was more explosive than the last.
Especially the second piece of information.
It made him feel at a loss again after many years.
The last time was when his father left him after his mother.
Yes.
He was someone who was very good at self-consolation.
But self-consolation cannot handle all situations.
Fujiwara Reiki is pregnant.
So the question is.
The child.
Whose is it?
Wataru Tetsuya?
By right, yes, but in this day and age, if paternity could be determined by status, then hospitals’ genetic testing departments wouldn’t have so many heartbroken people.
When reaching certain life stages, every man imagines the moment they become a father, just like women do.
Jiang Chen was no exception.
Actually, back around graduation, when Li Shuru had that misunderstanding, he had already rehearsed it once.
