Chapter 65.1

Baby .

Ling Jia was happy Yue Gu Zai and Zhen Zhen were living a good life together . Ling Jia felt it was the right time to go back .

‘Mum…’ Yue Gu Zai called .

‘Gu Zai, Zhen Zhen’s a good woman,’ Ling Jia said . ‘Take good care of her . ’

‘Yes mum,’ Yue Gu Zai said .

‘Imperial brother Gu Zai…’ Yue Dui Yi called .

Yue Dui Yi was sad to separate from Yue Gu Zai again .

Yue Gu Zai saw the Tom and Jerry box set in Yue Dui Yi’s arms and he smiled .

‘Dui Yi, what are you going to do with the box set at home?’ Yue Gu Zai asked .

‘Gu Zai, Dui Yi said the box set is the first gift you bought him,’ Zhen Zhen said . ‘He wants to bring it home as a momentum . Let him take it home . ’

Yue Gu Zai nodded his head .

Yue Cheng Tian was relieved Louis didn’t come to farewell Ling Jia .

‘Let’s go home,’ Yue Cheng Tian said .

Yue Cheng Tian held Ling Jia and Yue Dui Yi’s hands . The moment they were about the leave, Louis jumped out of the shadows and held onto Ling Jia’s hand . An explosion was heard and the four of them disappeared .

Yue Gu Zai smiled at the empty spot . He knew it was going to be a lively place in the palace with Louis living with Ling Jia, Yue Cheng Tian and Yue Dui Yi .

Months past, Zhen Zhen was close to her delivery date . Zhen Zhen and Yue Gu Zai missed the lively days when their family members were together . If Zhen Zhen had an appointment on a day Yue Gu Zai was on a business trip, Yue Gu Zai assigned a guard to drive Zhen Zhen to the hospital .

After a hospital visit, Zhen Zhen walked outside and waited for the guard to pick her up . Her complexion paled when she saw Shu Tang Jue stepped out of a car .

‘Miss Zhen Zhen, I want you to come with me to visit small rice grain,’ Shu Tang Jue said . ‘She misses you . ’

‘Do I have a choice?’ Zhen Zhen asked .

Shu Tang Jue opened the front passenger seat for Zhen Zhen . She sat in his car, and he opened an empty blue box .

‘Miss Zhen Zhen, I want you to put all your jewellery in here,’ Shu Tang Jue said .

Zhen Zhen took off her blue diamond earrings, bracelet and diamond ring . Shu Tang Jue put the bracelet and diamond ring in the blue box, but he crushed the blue diamond earrings into powder .

‘Miss Zhen Zhen, Tan Lang prepared a more beautiful pair of diamond earrings for you,’ Shu Tang Jue said .

Zhen Zhen knew Shu Tang Jue found out about the blue diamond earrings Yue Gu Zai bought for her that had a tracking device installed .

Shu Tang Jue drove Zhen Zhen to a beautiful mansion, but she was in no mood to appreciate the architecture .

Shu Tang Jue led Zhen Zhen to his and Nan Ma’s bedroom door .

‘Miss Zhen Zhen, Nan Ma is pregnant,’ Shu Tang Jue said . ‘For several days she refused to eat . I hope you can persuade her to eat . ’

Zhen Zhen was surprised Nan Ma was pregnant .

A chef brought a platter of food to Shu Tang Jue, and he passed it to Zhen Zhen .

‘I’m not coming in,’ Shu Tang Jue said .

Zhen Zhen opened the door . Nan Ma sat in front of the window .

‘I said I don’t want to eat anything,’ Nan Ma said .

Zhen Zhen was sad to see Nan Ma looked like a skeleton .

‘Nan Ma, you should at least eat for the baby,’ Zhen Zhen said .

‘Zhen Zhen…’ Nan Ma called .

Zhen Zhen put the platter of food on a table . Nan Ma ran to hug Zhen Zhen and she cried .

Zhen Zhen was angry Shu Tang Jue made the usually strong Nan Ma cry .

‘Why are you here?’ Nan Ma asked .

‘Shu Tang Jue invited me here to visit you,’ Zhen Zhen said .

‘Who does he think he is?’ Nan Ma asked . ‘I’ll go tell him to release you . ’

‘Ah… Nan Ma… my stomach hurts…’ Zhen Zhen said .

Nan Ma helped Zhen Zhen to the bed . Then Nan Ma ran outside to ask Shu Tan Jue to find someone to help deliver Zhen Zhen’s baby . When Nan Ma left the bedroom, Zhen Zhen was unconscious .

That day Yue Gu Zai returned from England and his gang members reported to him .

‘Boss, the guard waited for your wife outside the hospital,’ Cheng Yi said . ‘The guard didn’t see her come out . I went to the hospital to review security footage, Shu Tang Jue forced your wife into his car . ’

Yue Gu Zai snapped the pen in his hand in half .

‘Boss, Tan Lang’s members have been snooping around your home and the hospital for the last couple of days,’ Bai Yu Tian said . ‘What if Shu Tang Jue wants to use your wife to take revenge on you?’

‘Why didn’t anyone tell me about this sooner?’ Yue Gu Zai asked .

‘Your wife wouldn’t let us tell you because she didn’t want you to worry,’ Bai Yu Tian said .

‘I want everyone to leave,’ Yue Gu Zai said .

At Shu Tang Jue’s mansion, he ordered the head doctor of Tan Lang to help deliver Zhen Zhen’s baby .

‘Small rice grain, don’t worry,’ Shu Tang Jue said . ‘Nothing will happen to Zhen Zhen and the baby . ’

Nan Ma pushed Shu Tang Jue’s arms away from her .

‘If anything happens to Zhen Zhen and her baby, I’ll never forgive you,’ Nan Ma said .

Nan Ma stared at the door and she prayed for Zhen Zhen and the baby .

Shu Tang Jue didn’t know how his and Nan Ma’s relationship became strained .

A baby’s cry was heard . Nan Ma turned around and she smiled at Shu Tang Jue .

‘Zhen Zhen gave birth,’ Nan Ma said . ‘The baby is here . ’

Shu Tang Jue was grateful Zhen Zhen’s baby was born safely because it meant he could see Nan Ma smile .

‘Boss, it’s a baby girl,’ Mo Yi said . ‘The mother and baby girl are healthy . The baby girl needs a ventilator for the first two days . ’

Mo Yi had to perform a C-section to take out the baby girl because Zhen Zhen was unconscious .

Nan Ma walked into the room, and she carried her adorable goddaughter . For the first time she wondered if her baby would be adorable like her goddaughter .

The next several days, Shu Tang Jue agreed to let Nan Ma take care of Zhen Zhen and the baby girl because Nan Ma agreed to eat .

Zhen Zhen was unhappy she gave birth to a baby girl . She decided when she got home, she would tell Yue Gu Zai if she was pregnant again, she wouldn’t give birth unless they were having a baby boy .

‘Zhen Zhen, do you think your daughter looks more like your husband?’ Nan Ma asked .

‘The baby is too young to see who she looks like,’ Zhen Zhen said . ‘Nan Ma, do you know why Shu Tang Jue is holding me and the baby captive?’

‘Didn’t he ask you to come here to cheer me up?’ Nan Ma asked .

‘I don’t think it’s that simple,’ Zhen Zhen said .

‘Zhen Zhen, I won’t let him hurt you or your daughter,’ Nan Ma said . ‘If he dares, I’ll make him suffer more than if he was dead . ’

‘Nan Ma do you have a phone?’ Zhen Zhen asked . ‘I want to call Gu Zai . ’

Zhen Zhen was disappointed Nan Ma shook her head .

‘I’ll go find him and tell him to release you and your daughter,’ Nan Ma said .

Nan Ma left the room with the baby girl, and Zhen Zhen laid on the bed to rest .

Someone came out of an underground tunnel .

‘Who’s there?’ Zhen Zhen asked . ‘Gu Zai…’

Yue Gu Zai walked to the bed, he hugged Zhen Zhen and she cried on his shoulder .

‘Zhen Zhen, I’m sorry I came late,’ Yue Gu Zai said . ‘We need to leave . ’

Zhen Zhen knew if Yue Gu Zai fell into Shu Tang Jue’s hands then even Nan Ma couldn’t save Yue Gu Zai’s life .

‘Follow me,’ Yue Gu Zai said .

Yue Gu Zai led Zhen Zhen through the tunnel .

‘Gu Zai, our daughter,’ Zhen Zhen said .

‘Zhen Zhen, go outside first,’ Yue Gu Zai said . ‘Cheng Yi, Chu Gian and Bai Yu Tian are waiting in the car for us . I’ll go find our daughter . ’

Zhen Zhen hesitated to let go of Yue Gu Zai’s hand . He kissed her cheek and he ran to look for their daughter .

Zhen Zhen walked through the tunnel exit . Cheng Yi, Chu Gian and Bai Yu Tian were happy to see Zhen Zhen was alive and safe .

‘Where’s boss?’ Bai Yu Tian asked .

‘Gu Zai went back inside to look for Yue Ni,’ Zhen Zhen said .

‘Miss Zhen Zhen, come sit in the car,’ Chu Gian said .

Chu Gian was worried to see Zhen Zhen’s pale face .

‘No,’ Zhen Zhen said . ‘I want to wait for Gu Zai . ’

Zhen Zhen noticed someone on the roof .

‘Who is on the roof?’ Zhen Zhen asked . ‘It’s Gu Zai . ’

Zhen Zhen saw Shu Tang Jue behind Yue Gu Zai .

‘Gu Zai, behind you!’ Zhen Zhen warned .

Chu Gian pulled Zhen Zhen onto the ground and she shielded Zhen Zhen’s body from bullets .

The gun shots stopped . Zhen Zhen could only see Shu Tang Jue on the roof .

‘No… no…’ Zhen Zhen said .

Chu Gian and Bai Yu Tian held Zhen Zhen back from running into the mansion .

‘Miss Zhen Zhen, running back inside is pointless,’ Bai Yu Tian said .

‘Let me go…’ Zhen Zhen said and fell unconscious .

Chu Gian and Bai Yu Tian carried Zhen Zhen to the car and Cheng Yi drove them home .
