Chapter 281: Rong Jing Seeks Help on the Phone, Karma Comes
Qin Ruan withdrew her gaze and thought for a moment before saying, "If he has a godmother who loves his child, why wouldn't he agree?"
Doesn't she have the right to find a godmother for her child?
Qin Ruan laughed and shook her head. Based on her understanding of Hou Yunjiao past and present life, as long as she didn't change the child's surname or let the child call someone else "daddy," Third Master should comply with her.
In Qin Ruan's opinion, things were fine as they were now.
Her child was still in her womb, Ling Xiaoxuan was still alive, their family had gotten rid of Han Xian and Han Kexin, and the engagement between the Qin and Tang families had been cancelled.
Everything was going in a good direction, and she didn't want anyone to ruin it.
Now, she was just waiting for the child to be born and fulfilling her unreachable dream from her past life.
Ling Xiaoxuan pulled Qin Ruan's arm and walked towards the house.
"Let's go! It's such a good day, we'll go to the mall and buy gifts for my future godson and goddaughter."
"There are still eight months left. Even if you buy them now, you'll just end up throwing them away."
Qin Ruan felt a headache coming on.
Ling Xiaoxuan was decisive and had a strong sense of action, but she was a good person at heart, despite her queen-like demeanor.
Qin Ruan was pulled into the house by her with slight force.
Coincidentally, Lili, who was unconscious on the ground, woke up at this moment.
Lili got up from the ground, feeling as if she had been sliced with a knife all over her body, in unbearable pain.
Especially her lower abdomen, where it felt like someone had dug a large hole.
She lowered her head and lifted her shirt to take a look. Her belly was flat, not to mention a hole, there wasn't even a single scar.
Hearing the conversation between Ling Xiaoxuan and Qin Ruan, she raised her head in confusion.
"Where am I?"
She recognized both women who were in front of her.
One is a girl from a prestigious family, and the other is a notorious illegitimate daughter.
When Qin Ruan met Lili's gaze, there was no hiding her disgust and sarcasm, thinking that it was true that the world can change, but one's nature is hard to change.
Lili had just regained her senses, and there was nowhere to hide the things that were imprinted in her bones.
"Now that you're awake, you can leave," Qin Ruan said in a cold voice, devoid of any emotion.
Lili looked at Qin Ruan and Ling Xiaoxuan warily and asked, "Why am I here, and what did you do to me?"
"You passed out from heatstroke, and I brought you here," Qin Ruan said as she walked to the wardrobe and took out a sunscreen shirt to put on.
On the other hand, Ling Xiaoxuan didn't even spare a glance at Lili.
She picked up her bag, put on her high heels, and walked towards Qin Ruan with her enchanting steps.
After hearing Qin Ruan's perfunctory words to Lili, Ling Xiaoxuan looked slightly surprised.
Looking at Lili's bewildered expression, Ling Xiaoxuan's eyes widened.
Did this woman lose her memory?
Looking at Lili's contemptuous expression, her high and mighty attitude, and the way she looked at Qin Ruan as if she was looking at garbage, it was nothing like the person who had begged Qin Ruan desperately when she first entered.
Lili got up from the ground in a sorry state and expressed doubt about Qin Ruan's words.
She had no memory of what happened before and how she got here.
But as for Qin Ruan, she despised her from the bottom of her heart.
She was just an illegitimate daughter with a pretty face who would hook up with any man in school, even their senior student, Lu Yichen.
Wait, did Qin Ruan hook up with Lu Yichen?
Lili looked confused.
Before she could figure it out, Qin Ruan ordered her to leave once again.
"We're leaving. If you're okay, please leave," Qin Ruan said.
Lili had experienced the harassment of the infant ghost for the past two days, as well as witnessing the sinister plots before, and her memories were not suitable for retention.
As the baby ghost left her body, the memories she had experienced in the past two days were also extracted.
Lili gently tapped her head, her brows furrowed tightly.
She felt as if she had lost some memories, and couldn't recall anything when she tried to think back seriously.
She left unsteadily, her movements slow, and her brain became sluggish.
As soon as Lili left, Ling Xiaoxuan approached Qin Ruan and asked, "Why does she seem like she's lost her memory?"
"Uh, she saw something she shouldn't have seen," Qin Ruan said indifferently.
Ling Xiaoxuan exclaimed, "Can that really happen?"
Qin Ruan picked up her backpack, smiled at her, and didn't explain further.
Some things are hard to explain in just a few words.
The two of them left the dormitory and took Huo Chuan's car straight to the shopping mall.
It is said that women are strange creatures, and they can spend several hours in the mall without getting tired, even if they don't buy anything, they are still very happy.
For men, it's a nightmare.
Any man who has accompanied a woman on a shopping spree can understand this.
Huo Chuan was experiencing this torture today.
What is the experience of feeling hopeless in life like? Huo Chuan surveyed the men in the resting area of the mall. Those men who were expressionless, staring blankly at their phones in the corner, or slouching on the sofa, looking tired and listless.
He couldn't help feeling sad for these people.
He was also silently mourning for himself.
Huo Chuan's face showed a hint of helplessness and sadness.
Madam had been shopping with Miss Ling for three hours already.
During these three hours, they had bought a lot of things.
The handbags and beautifully packaged gift boxes were all sent to the car downstairs by their assistants.
There were too many things, and they couldn't carry them all.
After buying so many things, they were still not done.
Huo Chuan, who was big and strong, stared expressionlessly at Madam and Ling Xiaoxuan, who were hand in hand and happily strolling around, and thought that this task was definitely not suitable for him.
He must strive to exchange back with Huo Zhi as soon as possible.
It was too painful, even more exhausting than carrying out an assassination mission.
Huo Chuan is not aware that liberation is just around the corner.
He looked around again, at the elites dressed in suits and leather shoes or the young men in trendy casual wear.
Seeing their exhausted appearances, he felt somewhat comforted deep down.
"Qin Ruan, look over there! That doll is so pretty!"
Ling Xiaoxuan stopped and pointed excitedly at the pink doll displayed in the glass showcase not far away.
Qin Ruan followed her direction and indeed, it was very beautiful.
Unfortunately, she wasn't very interested in these cute, pink dolls.
Just as she was about to respond to Ling Xiaoxuan, her phone rang from inside her bag.
Qin Ruan took out her phone and saw that it was from Rong Jing.
Rong Jing, that name sounded familiar.
After a moment of contemplation, Qin Ruan remembered who the person was.
It seemed that they still had some unfinished business between them.
She slid the phone screen to answer the call and put the phone to her ear.
"Qin Ruan? Is it Qin Ruan?"
In the speaker of her phone came Rong Jing's trembling and anxious voice.
At the same time, there was a sharp, non-human noise.
It was like laughter, and yet it sounded like a sharp howl, eerie and creepy, and made people feel scared.
A glint of darkness flashed in Qin Ruan's eyes. "Yes, it's me. What's going on?"
"You said to call you if something happened! Hurry and come!" Rong Jing's voice trembled, mixed with fear and tears.
