I agree with the Great Elder's statement, this thing must be what they used to mislead us, and it has nothing to do with the deaths of Changsheng and the others.Su Bei nodded: "The patriarch is right..."No."

After hearing Ye Bufan's words, Wang Xue'ning's original excitement and joy immediately disappeared, replaced by a panicked expression.

"No, it can't end yet."

As soon as she thought about Ye Bufan leaving her, and the two of them having no connection from then on, her heart ached, filled with fear she had never felt before.

Ye Bufan said, "Why Isn't it already over Your engagement has been dissolved."

But...but...

Wang Xue'ning's brain whirred, trying to come up with a suitable excuse as quickly as possible.

Suddenly, she had an idea and said, "Haven't you noticed that Changsun Dongju's reaction today is very unusual I told them that the person they like is you and that they are pregnant, but she didn't show any anger at all."

Do you think that's normal I guess she must be brewing some kind of scheme, this isn't over yet.

Since it's not over, your task is not finished.

"Um...this..."

Although Ye Bufan thought what she said made sense, Changsun Dongju's reaction was indeed unreasonable. It wasn't like other aristocratic children who were arrogant and domineering.

But that doesn't tell us anything, I can't just stay here forever.

He pondered for a moment and said, "But what if the other person is reasonable"

Wang Xue凝 shook her head and said, "Impossible. They must be brewing some conspiracy. There will definitely be action in the short term."

Ye Bufan wryly smiled and said, "Big sister, you can't just guess about this kind of thing. Besides, our agreement was to help you break your engagement, and I've already done that..."

"I said no, and that's final!"

Wang Xue Ning said arrogantly, “Breaking the engagement now is just on the surface. Don’t even think about leaving until we thoroughly resolve the Changsun family's affairs.”

"Big sister, but I still have other things to do..."

"That will have to wait until I finish my business!"

Wang Xue'ning acted with unprecedented arrogance, not giving Ye Bufan a chance to retort.

"I need to set a time limit, I can't stay here with you forever."

Wang Xue凝 said, "Then one year. Within a year, if nothing happens, you can leave."

"Ye Bufan gave her a look of exasperation. "Big sister, why not say forever"

Wang Xue'ning thought to herself, "My goal is to be with you for a lifetime. I'm just afraid of scaring you if I say it out loud."

Ye Bufan estimated the time for the Heavenly Soldier plan and said, “At most 10 days, I do have important things to do and can't delay any longer.”

"Alright then, but this is just a temporary agreement. We'll have to see how things go."

Wang Xue'ning didn't set a specific time. According to her plan, she would first stall the man and then discuss it later.

"Where shall we go now" Ye Bufan said.

"Of course I'm going shopping, and then we'll have a big lunch to celebrate."

Wang Xue'ning regained her previous happiness and excitement, linking arms with Yi Bu Fan's as they got into the car and left Wang Family Manor.

After leaving the Wang family, Changsun Dongju and Changsun Sheng arrived at the Hongmeng Group's branch in Jiangbei City.

As a trillion-asset conglomerate, Hongmeng Group is virtually ubiquitous throughout China, with its branches in every city.

Upon arriving at the room that his subordinates had prepared in advance, Changsun Sheng said angrily to his mother, "Mother, what the Wang family did is simply too outrageous. Why didn't you confront them"

Chángsun Dōngjū now fully recovered her previous calmness, and calmly said: "Shèng'er, your mother also went through this when she was young. Back then, she strongly opposed the arranged marriage decided by the family, so I particularly understand Wáng Xuěníng."

Since they don't agree, forcing it won't make things better. There's no need for us to push any further.

Changsun Sheng said: "But if you disagreed, you could have just said so earlier. Why did you wait until we got to Jiangbei City, and even become pregnant with someone else's child This is simply humiliating."

"Son, there's no need to be so angry."

Changsun Dongju said, "According to my guess, it's your Uncle Wang who is willing to marry into our Changsun family, while Wang Xue凝 has always disagreed."

Changsun Sheng said, “No matter what, I can’t swallow this.”

"Actually, there's nothing to make a fuss about. Could our Changsun family possibly be worried about finding a wife"

Changsun Dongju comforted, "Besides, your Uncle Wang isn't just anyone. He saved your life when you were a child. Don't let this little thing ruin the harmony."

Changsun Sheng said: "Could it be that we came to Jiangbei for nothing this time"

Changsun Dongju said: "Haven't you always said that staying in the imperial capital is boring You might as well come out and relax, treat it as a trip, have fun here for a few days, and then we'll go back."

"Well then, you rest. I'll go back first."

After Changsun Sheng finished speaking, he returned to his room. Shortly after entering, the bodyguard captain Lu Song walked in from outside.

He asked, “How is it going Have you figured anything out”

Immediately after leaving the Wang Family, he dispatched Lu Song to investigate Ye Bufan and Wang Xue Ning's current situation.

"Young Master, I've investigated. The young man with Miss Wang is named Ye Bufan. He appeared in Jiangbei City a week ago and was from Jiangnan City before that."

"Only a week" Changsun Sheng pondered for a moment and then asked, "Was there any contact between them before this"

"No, according to my findings, it's not even their first time in Jiangbei City, and they're here to break off the engagement..."

As a conglomerate with assets in the hundreds of billions, Honmeng Group has its own information channels, and the Changsun family also has connections in Jiangbei City. Therefore, it wouldn't be difficult for Lu Song to find out about this.

It took him about an hour to give a brief summary of Ye Bufan's recent activities throughout Jiangbei City.

It includes how Ye Bufan first saved Wang Xue'ning, and which hotel the two of them opened a room in, all explained clearly.

"Finally, he said: 'Young master, in my estimation, this young man surnamed Ye is probably the shield that Miss Wang Family has captured. It's likely there isn't such a deep relationship between the two.'"

"Shield"

Changsun Sheng thought for a moment and asked, "It does seem very similar. But how about the pregnancy Could it be that Empress Ying saw things wrong"

"I don't know about that."

Lu Song said, “However, with technology so advanced now, perhaps there are other means that could achieve this effect as well.”

You're right, there's definitely something fishy going on here. Even if they conceived on the first day, it's too soon to tell after only seven days together.

Longsun Sheng finished speaking and then came to Ying's room, asking, "Madam, there's something I want to ask you."

The English grandmother was the close bodyguard of her grandson Dongju, so when she spoke, she was also extremely polite.

"Just say it."

The English grandmother's expression was stoic, her face creased with wrinkles showing no signs of emotion.

Changsun Sheng asked, "I just want to ask, how long has Wang Xue'ning been pregnant"

The English granny said: "According to the pulse, it's about a month."

"A month" Changsun Sheng's mouth curled into a sneer. Wang Xueni had been with that kid surnamed Ye for only a week, yet she had the pulse of being pregnant for a month. This was impossible, it was clearly a lie.

He asked again, "Grandmother, you've seen and heard so much. Is there any way to make someone appear to have a pregnant pulse"ound me have all been beaten to a pulp, like dogs. Without my guards, I no longer have the guts to fight back."Kid, you wait for me. The Laiyang Prince's Mansion will not let you get away with this."D...
