The following day, Yong Liwei went to see Si Guanlin and told him about his plan about giving Lu Mengjie to the family.

"What do you think?" Yong Liwei asked. They were currently having lunch at one of the city's high-end restaurants.

"As your advisor, I think that is a great idea," offered Si Guanlin with a bright smile. "This will strengthen our relationship with the Bai family. Although I think giving her them is too easy." He leaned forward and clasped his hands together as he continued, "We know that Bai Keran hates the Lu family. He'll definitely use Lu Mengjie as his hostage just so he could ruin them. He would not waste such an opportunity so… instead of giving her to them for free, we can ask them for more of their specialty."

Yong Liwei narrowed his eyes. "I don't want any involvement in their drug dealing."

"Oh come on, Mr. Yong. It's not like we're going to be caught. The Bai family's opium quality is the best." He took something out of his pocket, a small vial and showed it to him. They were inside a VIP room so he wasn't worried about others overhearing them. The room was well secure, perfect for discussions like this.

He already knew Si Guanlin. He was offering such advice to either set a trap on him in the future or it was for his benefit. It could also be both. Yong Liwei eyed the vial for a few seconds before he finally opened his mouth and said, "Do what you want. I will be leaving this matter to you."

"Great! You will not regret it, boss!" He flashed him a wide grin.

"Handle the matter with the Bai family as soon as possible."

"Of course, of course, I will not fail you."

By the end of the week, Lu Mengjie was transferred to a hospital. Her room was heavily guarded by Bai Keran's men after he purchased her from them. The only ones who were allowed to enter were members of the Bai family. He knew that Si Guanlin was going to monitor Lu Mengjie through Bai Keran so he had to use Bai Jingye. With his help, he was able to keep an eye on her condition from time to time. Aside from that, Yong Liwei paid Lu Mengjie's doctor to directly report her situation to him. He was to decide what kind of information he would be giving Bai Keran.

"Mr. Yong, the patient is pregnant," the doctor said when Yong Liwei came to see him in the hospital.

Upon hearing the news, a crease formed between his brows. Pregnant? That was impossible! "Are you sure?"

"Yes. The results of the test came positive." Doctor Cai noticed how dark Yong Liwei's face became so he decided to suggest an alternative. "Since she is in her early pregnancy, we can remove the fetus-"

"No." He quickly shut him off. The atmosphere in the room became heavy. So many things were running in his mind like… who could be the father? Did Lu Mengjie sleep with someone else? Or was Si Guanlin able to sneak in a chance with her? Just at the thought of it was already enough reason for him to kill that other guy. He was so furious. He gritted his teeth, his expression was dark.

The doctor couldn't say a word anymore. He felt suffocated by the air Yong Liwei was emitting. He has never seen such a scary man in his life. He couldn't move his body even if he wanted to run out of the room. He inhaled deeply to gather his courage to speak out. "S-Sir… Do I have to report this to Bai Keran?"

"Report it to him. If he asked for abortion, tell him that this hospital doesn't allow it."

"B-But what… what if he insists?"

"Then make another excuse. No one is allowed to touch the child growing inside her." With that, Yong Liwei left the office in a hurry.

If the child wasn't his, then why did he instantly disagree by reflex when the doctor suggested aborting the child? What was this feeling creeping up to his chest? He knew that he couldn't be the father. He was infertile but… she was the only woman who slept with both him and Han Yizhou. He knew that there was a low chance of him impregnating a woman but… what if? He hated it when the idea entered his mind. It only gave him more reason to separate Han Yizhou from her!

Even if he said that…

Five months later, he wasn't able to stop their meeting. He wasn't able to switch in time when he received a call from Bai Jingye about where Lu Mengjie was. He tried to switch back but Han Yizhou's desire to see her was strong. By the time he saw her bulging belly while Han Yizhou was in control, he knew that he wouldn't be able to stop him from developing deeper feelings for her so he could only try to separate them.

He tried to do so but now that he was able to take control of the body without Han Yizhou banging in his head, he ended up living on the same roof as her with Han Yizhou sleeping inside him. Seriously, how troublesome can this get?

Lu Mengjie was staring at him with wide eyes. It seemed like she finally remembered everything that happened to her before she lost her memories. He could already tell what she was feeling. Betrayal. Well, who could blame her? The last memory she had with him was being drugged.

"W-why?" She moved away from her.

Yong Liwei raked his fingers through his hair before he let out a sinister smirk like that of a devil's. "Ah… It took you quite a while to have your memories back. About time." He stretched out his hand to her only to see her shrink away. He felt a strange pang in his chest when he saw the fear in her eyes but that didn't stop him from reaching out to grab her chin. "I was getting bored of playing alone."
