Qiao Xi had taken her medicine and was lying on the chair with her eyes closed.

She regretted it so much! She would never eat Uncle’s dirty dishes again.

No, she seemed to have gained weight. Why was there a layer of fat on her stomach?!

Qiao Xi jumped up in horror and hurriedly took a ruler to measure her waist. She had indeed gained weight…

She suddenly heard Third Brother’s careful reminder. “Little Six, your dress is too small today.”

Qiao Xi had always been thin since she was young. Moreover, there was something wrong with her taste buds, so she was not interested in food. It was fine as long as she was not hungry. However, after being by Gu Zheng’s side for a few months, she had unexpectedly gained weight!

For women, the most terrifying thing was gaining weight.

At this moment, the butler walked in with a plate of fried chicken.

Qiao Xi really liked crispy and juicy fried chicken because even though she could not taste it, she could enjoy the texture of the food.

The butler knew that she liked it, so he often made it for her.

It was just that Qiao Xi was feeling nauseous now. As soon as she smelled the greasy aroma, she immediately covered her mouth and waved her hand. “I don’t want to eat that for now.”

The butler was enlightened.

Young Madam was disgusted the moment she smelled oil. She had even gained weight. Could it be…

The butler hurriedly congratulated her. “Young Madam, why didn’t you say so earlier? Pregnancy is a good thing!”

Qiao Xi was dumbfounded: “??”

The butler was all smiles. “I thought you had gained weight.. Looks like you’re pregnant. The president probably doesn’t know yet, right? I’ll go tell him!”
















Chapter 226: Bastard Said Sweet Words

“Wait…” Pregnant?

Before Qiao Xi could finish, the butler left in a hurry.

Not long after, Gu Zheng walked over with a smile. “I heard you’re pregnant?”

Qiao Xi: “…”

They had never even done that, so how could she be pregnant? Was this bastard joking?

‘If I’m pregnant, that means it’s someone else’s child. Does Gu Zheng want to be cuckolded so badly?

‘Bastard, if you dare say I’m fat, I’ll kill you!’

He hugged her waist. She had indeed gained weight, but she seemed to have become cuter. She was too skinny earlier, but now that he touched her flesh, it felt better this way.

“Mrs. Gu, you’re not fat at all,” the man said with a chuckle.

Qiao Xi’s expression eased up a little. Fortunately, Gu Zheng did not say anything. She said aggrievedly, “Everyone says I’m fat.”

Gu Zheng smiled slightly. “That’s because they don’t understand aesthetics. Your figure now is the most perfect.”

Qiao Xi widened her eyes in pleasant surprise.

Oh my God! This man was saying sweet things!

Qiao Xi’s heart raced. She finally knew why women liked sweet-talking men.

Hearing him say sweet words, she instantly felt much better.

“Am I really not fat? Nowadays, girls all want to be skinny and young. I think I’m a little heavy.”

Gu Zheng stroked her hair, his heart almost melting. “You’re not heavy at all. All the other girls out there must be very envious of your figure.”

Qiao Xi’s face was dyed red, and it gradually spread to her ears.

She abruptly raised her eyes and heard Gu Zheng say slowly, “You eat so much but you only gained this little bit of weight. This is already very impressive, so they should be very envious of you!”

“…”

Qiao Xi was stunned for a few seconds.

‘Bastard! Nothing good comes out of your mouth!’

Her little heart that was still beating rapidly instantly steadied as she gritted her teeth in anger.

She would rather believe that there were ghosts in this world than a man’s words!

If she were to wait for him to say a few nice words, she might as well just sleep and listen to his sweet words in her dreams.

Qiao Xi turned around and was about to leave when Gu Zheng grabbed her. “What’s wrong?”

‘What do you think is wrong? Bastard, you’re doing this on purpose, right?! Before I met you, I thought you were a caring big brother. After we met, I realized you’re just a bastard!’

Gu Zheng curled his lips into a devilish smile. “I’m quite happy.”

Qiao Xi almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

If she was guilty, please just have God punish her and not send Gu Zheng to torture her!

When he entered earlier, Gu Zheng had a cold face. Now, he was smiling like a blooming flower.

Gu Zheng’s thin lips moved slightly. “I was originally unhappy, but after seeing you, I’m happy.”

Qiao Xi’s mouth was wide open as her heart thumped.

What did he say?

Did it mean that he wanted to see her?

Just then, her phone suddenly rang. It was a message, and it interrupted her thoughts.

Gu Zheng turned his face away to cover his red ears. He pretended to be calm and asked, “Are you going to investigate Qiao Zhenguo and Xu Mei?”

Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

After so many years, it was not easy to find evidence.

Gu Zheng’s expression was serious. “What do you want to do?”

Qiao Xi seemed to be lost in thought. She did not understand why Gu Zheng was asking this. Did he want to help?

“I want to find out the truth of the matter and let the culprit be punished!”

However, this was only the beginning. She still had to announce what Qiao Zhenguo and Xu Mei had done to the world to comfort her mother’s soul in heaven.

Also…

‘I also want Qiao Zhenguo to lose everything. I want him to walk into hell step by step. I want him to live a life worse than death!

‘I want to let this adulterous pair fall into despair. I want to have Xu Mei experience endless pain. I want her reputation to be ruined and for her to be abandoned by everyone. It’s best if she eventually dies from depression.’

Qiao Xi’s eyes narrowed slightly as she frowned slightly.

‘About these things… I’d better not tell Gu Zheng. It hasn’t been easy for me to pretend to be weak. If I open my mouth and say these, my image will be ruined. All men probably hate vicious women.

‘No man would like a revengeful woman, and I happen to be such a person.’

Qiao Xi’s eyes were filled with disappointment.

However, Gu Zheng could clearly hear her thoughts and did not say anything..
