2 Lu Shen’s Child (1/2)

”I still need to see him,” the girl said.

Although Hui Yin already looked like a mangy mutt begging to see her ex-husband outside the gates, her eyes were wide and soulful, lashes trembling with unshed tears.

She had already lost her beauty, but those enchanting eyes of her were unchanging, making you want to drown in them.

Nian Zhen felt hatred bubble up like acid in her stomach, and she looked down at the expensive ring in her finger. Slowly, her lips began to curve triumphantly.

Ha! What was there to be jealous of? Hui Yin had already fallen this low. Poor, divorced, and ugly, how could she even dare to compete with Nian Zhen? Plus, Lu Shen was already hers. Does a lion need to be mindful of a dog?

”I have his child...”

As the soft whisper reached her ears, Nian Zhen froze.

She looked at Hui Yin outside the gates, and now she noticed that the girl was caressing her stomach tenderly. In that brief second, Nian Zhen was suddenly seized with rage.

How could that slut have Lu Shen's child?

She, Nian Zhen, was supposed to be the one to give birth to the heir of the Lu family. She had meticulously planned her way to the top, but she had forgotten this one important thing.

Nian Zhen ground her teeth. How dare this trash drive a wedge in her plans?

Thinking quickly, the disdainful look in Nian Zhen's face softened, and she opened up the gates.  But she didn't let Hui Yin enter.

Instead, she was the one who went outside, and placed a gentle hand on Hui Yin's shoulder.
