The corridor in summer was sweltering hot. Du Anran leaned against the stairs, unable to cry. She stared blankly at a skylight. For some reason, she thought of Xin Zimo's kiss on her lips, the kiss that carried a faint tea fragrance but was cold.
She wiped her lips a few times. She truly felt that the current Xin Zimo was endlessly toying with her.
A few tears slid down her cheeks. Du Anran stared blankly at the skylight. There was a white cloud floating outside the skylight, free and unfettered.
Probably, the less someone loved her, the more she needed to love herself. Du Anran's lips curled into a smile. She was still young. She still had to continue down this path, didn't she Who wouldn't meet a few scumbags in this life... ...
That day, she stubbornly walked from the thirty-sixth floor of Xin Zimo's office all the way to the first floor. Her high heels were grinding until her feet hurt, but she thought that tomorrow, she would get her uncle to help her with the formalities to go abroad. It was time for her to leave. She no longer had anything to worry about in this land.
She recalled the days when she was studying in Germany. She was young and carefree then, until she took over Shihe and met Xin Zimo. The trajectory of her life suddenly changed.
"Du Anran? " When du Anran was walking aimlessly on the road, a Red Ferrari suddenly stopped in front of her. A woman in her forties got out of the car.
"Auntie... " Du Anran initially thought that her eyes were playing tricks on her. She only called out carefully when mother Xin walked in front of her. She had met mother Xin a few times, but every time, mother Xin did not show much enthusiasm. She had once asked Xin Zimo if his aunt did not like her, and Xin Zimo had never said anything.
"You're pregnant with Zimo's child? " Xin Zimo's mother went straight to the point, and her expression was very serious.
"I... " Du Anran raised her head in astonishment. She had only sent Xin Zimo a text message, but she did not expect him to tell his mother so soon.
"Tell me, right? " Xin zimo's mother was aggressive, and her expression was very ugly. She had never forgotten about such things.
"Yes... but... " Du Anran did not know how to explain. She also did not know how Xin Zimo had told his mother Did he mean that this child was not his ? Or was there something that he could not do and left it to his mother to do ?
"whether this child is Zimo's or not, you have to follow me to the hospital to get an abortion now. " There was no room for negotiation in Xin zimo's mother's tone. "The Xin family does not need your child. "
"I will not go! " Du Anran was a stubborn person. She could not stand people threatening her the most. "He is my child. NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO INTERFERE! "
"You have to come with me today! " Xin zimo's mother's temper was not good either "Not to mention that I won't let you and this unknown child enter the Xin family. Even Zimo won't. Don't even think about using this child to threaten Zimo. Don't even think about using this child to climb up the social ladder! "
Mother Xin's words angered Du Anran. "climb up the social ladder? " "Today, I respect you for calling you 'Auntie, ' but I still have to say this. Xin Zimo is a bastard. What's there for me to climb up the social ladder "I don't care about your Xin family. I won't take another step in my life! "
"I don't care if you enter or not, but if you want to leave here today, you have to come with me to the hospital to abort this child! " Mother Xin was also angered by Du Anran.
"I won't go with you. " Du Anran ignored her and went around mother Xin.
This was the first time she had talked so much with Xin zimo's mother. From what she remembered, Xin Zimo's mother had always been quiet. Although she was not very warm to her, at least she was not very mean. But today, her attitude was so tough.
It seemed that her family had fallen into poverty, and so did she.
With her son's current status and status, there was no need to worry about finding a rich, powerful, and beautiful woman. And she had "conceived" Xin Zimo's child at this time... ... Du Anran could understand mother Xin's actions very well ...
Du Anran's behavior completely made mother Xin unable to tolerate it. It had been many years since someone dared to talk to her so arrogantly. This woman was really similar to her mother, Bai Ruyun, in the past.
Mother Xin grabbed Du Anran's arm. Du Anran lost her balance and slipped, falling heavily to the ground. She pretended to stand up as if nothing had happened. She clearly saw the smile in mother Xin's eyes.
"Auntie, you might not be too petty! " Du Anran struggled free from mother Xin's hand.
Mother Xin did not relax. Seeing that Du Anran seemed to be fine, she seemed to have thought of something and pulled her toward the Ferrari. Du Anran naturally would not listen to her. She knew taekwondo, but she respected mother Xin as an elder. She did not make a move and only tried to struggle free.
"Auntie, if you continue like this, I will call for help! " Du Anran was not easy to bully.
Mother Xin was not threatened by Du Anran. She opened the car door and said, "today, you have to go to the hospital with me. My son will never marry you, let alone have a child like you! If you don't want this child to suffer with you, you can go to the hospital with me. "
Du Anran was determined not to go to the hospital with Mother Xin. Once she went, this lie would not be able to continue. All she had to do was to stall for time. Once she completed the procedures to go abroad, she could leave this place and leave everything here.
"Miss Du, since brother Zimo doesn't love you, why do you insist on keeping this child? Are you doing this for money or something else? " The woman in the driver's seat slowly took off her sunglasses and stared at Du Anran.
Du Anran had never seen her before and smiled slightly. "This is also between him and me. There's no need for others to interfere. "
"Auntie, since Miss Du isn't willing to go to the hospital, then we shouldn't force her. " Chi Xue sighed and picked the broken flowers on her nails "Some women are desperate and want to grab hold of their last Straw. However, they don't know that a straw will often become the straw that breaks the camel's back. "
"Then don't stop me! " Du Anran shook off mother Xin's hand and tried to go around the Ferrari.
However, a few reporters came out of nowhere. Just as Du Anran was about to leave, a few of them quickly pressed the shutter. Du Anran couldn't stop them. After a while, a few more reporters rushed over and almost blocked the sidewalk.
The Red Ferrari by the roadside was already eye-catching. In addition to the slightly heated words of mother Xin and Du Anran, the reporters seemed to have picked up a treasure and surrounded them one after another. Those with sharp eyes had long recognized du Anran and shouted in the crowd, "isn't that the harmonious Miss Du? " Sure enough, this sentence was like a stone thrown into the water, stirring up a thousand waves, and the surrounding crowd became even more lively.
"Miss Du, I heard that you have a lawsuit with the Xin family this afternoon. I don't know why it was canceled? " A reporter beat her to it and squeezed in front of Du Anran.
Du Anran had always been tired of this kind of situation. She chose to avoid talking about it and lowered her head, trying to find a way out.
"Miss Du, an insider revealed that you are pregnant with the child of the CEO of the Xin Corporation. Is this true? " A female reporter also took the opportunity to approach.
Du Anran was shocked when she heard this. She had only sent this message to Xin Zimo, the so-called insider... ... Xin Zimo was really ruthless. She had just lied, and he wanted to make her have nowhere to run. His revenge on her had always been doubled ...
