The photo is set against the background of a lush bamboo forest. The man is strong and the woman is tightly held by him. One is strong and the other is weak, and there is a clear sense of impact. The faces of both of them are clearly photographed.
"Who sent it?"
Xu Yanqing looked at her phone and saw that the person who sent the photo was an unknown number.
"Not a p-picture this time?" Yu Zhi stared at her face.
"It's really fast. It's just a matter of front and rear. I'll send it to your phone." Xu Yanqing looked magnanimous and handed the phone back to Yu Zhi.
"You have nothing to explain?" His tie was pulled askew, and there was no emotion or anger in his unpredictable eyes. However, Xu Yanqing couldn't expect him to be happy when this happened, right?
"He came to say goodbye to me. I avoided him, so he chased me and pulled me into a small park."
Xu Yanqing explained what had just happened in a calm tone, "He said to give him a hug, but I told him that it was not necessary. The matter cannot be solved with a hug."
She looked deeply into his face, and her tone was not as gentle as usual, but a bit sharp.
"Anyone who has such thoughts is not pure in heart. She just wants to find an excuse to hug you."
Yu Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly, who was this alluding to? "Is that all?"
"If there was something more extreme, if we kissed each other, you wouldn't only receive this photo."
Yu Zhi would not understand this truth. He stretched out his hand towards Xu Yanqing and said, "Give me the phone."
"do what?"
"Let me see if you have contacted each other privately."
Xu Yanqing didn't expect that he would behave so childishly. Didn't he also disbelieve her?
She handed over the phone and pressed her finger lightly on the screen. The lock screen wallpaper popped up. He frowned and even brought the phone closer.
"This..." What the hell?
"Don't you look good?" Xu Yanqing looked at him with a half-smile.
Yu Zhi's face was extremely ugly. The fluorescence from the screen didn't have enough time to illuminate his eyes, and the corners of his mouth tightened. "When was it set?"
"It's been a long time."
Xu Yanqing looked at the scene of him and Zhao Sinan hugging each other, "Would you like to send you a copy? You can also set it as a screen saver."
"Are you having a psychological problem due to the stimulation?" Yu Zhi said, putting his hand to her forehead, "I don't have a fever."
"I didn't get any stimulation."
Yu Zhi only thought the photo was eye-catching and said, "Change it."
"No change." There's no harm in taking a closer look, and it can also refresh your mind. Seeing her straightforward refusal, Yu Zhi reached out and lifted her onto his lap.
"We haven't taken a photo together yet, let's take one."
When Xu Yanqing saw him picking up the phone, she quickly turned her face away, refusing to show her face, "I don't like taking pictures."
"Just one."
She put her face on Yu Zhi's neck, unwilling to cooperate, so he kissed her face and finally got a picture.
Yu Zhi looked at it and was quite satisfied. Due to the angle, Xu Yanqing's reluctance could not be seen. Instead, it looked like she was hiding from the camera with a shy face.
Xu Yanqing wanted to get off his lap, "Is it okay now?"
"What's wrong today? Are you not in a good mood?" Yu Zhi saw her facial features wrinkled together, "Is it because of Zongzang's affairs?"
"No, there's nothing between me and him. I'm just tired." Xu Yanqing stood up, "I'm going to take a shower first."
She sank into the hot water in the bathtub, her little face was red from the steam, and her fair skin had an alluring layer of pink.
Xu Yanqing adjusted the water temperature very high. The water flowing on his cheeks could no longer be distinguished from sweat or water vapor.
She likes to hide her heart, using thorns as a fence and tricks to build a hard wall. No one knows that her heart is actually very fragile and will break if touched.
Everyone says that Xu Yanqing is tough, but no one knows that she is a person with no sense of security at all.
Xu Yanqing did not dare to ask Yu Zhi clearly, what if it was true?
If he admitted it, she would definitely separate from him.
Regardless of whether this was true or not, Yu Yi's words were deeply imprinted on Xu Yanqing's heart, causing pain.
Yu Zhi, Mr. Yu, will never marry her.
Xu Yanqing went out after taking a shower, but he didn't see Yu Zhi. He only left a message for her, "You go to bed first, I have something urgent to do and I need to go home."
The old house of the Yu family.
The car waded through the cool breeze and drove to the door.
The housekeeper quickly stepped forward and opened the car door, "Master, you are finally back."
"What happened?"
The butler's face was gloomy. It was not easy for him to talk about this kind of thing. "You'll know when you get in."
As soon as he entered, he saw Mrs. Yu sitting on the sofa with an uncertain expression, holding a handkerchief in one hand, as if wiping tears.
"Dad, Mom, what's wrong?" Yu Zhi walked over and saw a physical examination report on the coffee table. He reached out to get it.
Yu Hongwen put his hand on it, "Your mother is making a fuss, it's not a big deal."
When Mrs. Yu heard this, she couldn't hold back her emotions. She cried with tears in her throat, "Lung cancer, isn't this a big deal?"
She pointed at Yu Zhi, throwing all the heat on him, "You know how to hang out with women all day long, but do you still care about us? Your father is already so sick..."
Yu Zhi's face was solemn, with a look of disbelief. He pulled out the physical examination report. "Weren't you in good health before?"
"Smoking so hard, how can it get better!"
Yu Zhi glanced at the report, sat next to Mrs. Yu, raised his hand and put his arm around her shoulders, "What did the doctor say?"
"Carcinoma in situ, we need to get treatment as soon as possible. I don't know what to do in the future..." Mrs. Yu looked sad, beating her legs with her hands, her eyes red with anger, "I want you to stop smoking, I want you to quit smoking..."
"Mom, now that the matter is over, let's get treatment as soon as possible." Yuzhi comforted him twice, "Have you gone to another hospital to check again?"
"After reading it, I found the best Director Jiang. I can't make a wrong diagnosis."
Yu Hongwen remained silent, and his originally energetic face became much duller. He suddenly said to Yu Zhi, "What do you mean by that woman outside?"
"Dad, we are discussing your condition now."
"How many more years do you think I can survive?" Yue Hongwen wanted to be strong all his life, but he never expected that terminal illness would come as soon as he said it. "It will be over soon. I will help you find a partner and get married as soon as possible."
"It can't be done." Yuzhi refused simply.
Mrs. Yu was so angry that she hit him, "Your dad is so sick, why are you still angry with him?"
"She and I are fine now."
"Do you still want to marry her?"
Yuzhi was silent for a few seconds, "Not necessarily."
Yu Hongwen thought about his own body and couldn't get angry! He also knew that Yu Zhi and Xu Yanqing might not be able to be separated for a while.
"Then let her have a baby."
Yu Zhi raised his eyes, this was somewhat beyond his expectation, "What?"
"As soon as possible, let her conceive a child for you now." Yu Hongwen stared at his physical examination report, "It will be in the belly for nine months, and I don't know if I can wait until he is born."
A furrow formed between Yu Zhi's brows, and Mrs. Yu did not expect that Yu Hongwen would have such an idea.
"But that woman..."
"Before I die, I want to hold my grandson in my arms!"
The hall of the Yu family was full of light. Jiang Huai waited in the car for a long time before he saw Yu Zhi coming with a stern look on his face.
After he got into the car, the car started slowly.
"Master, is it about the physical examination report?" Jiang Huai asked lightly.
If Yu Zhi didn’t respond, that’s it.
"Mr. Yu believed the report, but what about the subsequent treatment?"
"His lung disease is very serious and he needs surgery. If he takes the opportunity to recuperate, he can retire."
It was just a matter of children, but Yu Hongwen refused to give in.
Back in the capital of Jiangnan, Xu Yanqing had already fallen asleep. She vaguely heard a sound coming, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Yu Zhi's figure.
He opened the bedside drawer, took out a pill bottle, and poured all Xu Yanqing's contraceptive pills into the trash can.
