doing such a disgraceful thing. If the Emperor found out, wouldn't that be troublesome"The Crown Prince said faintly, "My actions have nothing to do with you."The people in Chunyifang were also shive...Li Yan's movements were light, even gentle.

But he couldn't help but pin the young man against the bedhead, letting out a guttural groan. Those rough and violent thrusts made the air in the room thick with a heady scent.

Ning Shu noticed that he touched her face, and then he fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up, there was no stickiness to his body. Li Yan had already helped him clean up. He sat there for a while, dazed, and after finishing breakfast, the driver was already waiting outside.

The housekeeper said, “Mr. Ning, come back early.”

Ning Shu opened his mouth, he didn't take anything. He only brought his ID card. He glanced at the butler and said softly, "Thank you for your care."

The steward paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Mr. Ning, these are things I should do."

Ning Shu didn't speak again. He turned and got into the car.

He told the driver to stop at the hospital. Ning Shu went to see the original owner's aunt. The woman was sitting in the ward, her complexion looking much better. She was sitting there chatting with the patient next door, a smile on her face, and his heart settled down. Then he looked away.

Ning Shu had no intention of going in. He just wanted to take a glance and confirm that the surgery was successful.

The driver waited outside for a while, but the young man did not return.

Until half an hour passed, he began to feel something was wrong. He started to get anxious and followed after the driver. However, there was no sign of Mr. Ning in the ward, which made the driver suspicious.

He began to look around for Mr. Ning, but in the vast hospital, there was no trace of the refined young man.

The driver's face turned pale, and he was sweating profusely.

He lost Mr. Ning.

....

Ning Shu came out of the back door of the hospital, deliberately avoiding the driver. In the crowd, he boarded a bus.

He was well aware that Li Yan would realize he was gone and would likely come looking for him soon. Therefore, Ning Shu felt a hand tightly gripping his heart, and he had no intention of leaving the city.

First, Ning Shu wasn't familiar with other cities and didn't have much money. Second, he was hoping for a lucky break, as Li Yan got engaged quickly and already had someone new by his side.

It's possible I'll forget him soon.

Ning Shu pursed her lips and looked out the window, her eyes full of hope for the future life.

He can leave the task unfinished because he now has a new distraction.

Ning Shu could totally live in this strange world because of this child.

.....

The driver understood he had lost Mr. Ning, and Mr. Li would surely be furious. His face paled, but in the end, he still called Mr. Li.

Li Yan is holding a meeting.

The sound of a cell phone vibrating broke the silence in the conference room, and the shareholders looked at each other.

A trace of impatience flickered across Li Yanqing's handsome features. However, his phone kept vibrating for several times before he finally picked it up.

The driver, when his phone call was answered, felt a bit uneasy. He licked his dry lips and said, "... Mr. Li ... Mr. Ning .... Mr. Ning he...."

Everyone in the conference room noticed that the atmosphere around Li Yan had changed, making it hard to even breathe.

The driver also felt it, but he still choked back his words and finished speaking, though his voice grew lower and lower: "Mr. Ning is gone. I waited for him outside the hospital, but Mr. Ning hasn't come out for a long time...."

Li Yan's expression was uncertain, but his familiar shareholders were silent as cicadas. They had been with the company for so many years, how could they not understand that Li Yan's mood was at its worst now.

He said calmly, "Find it for me."

The call was cut off. The shareholders knew that Mr. Li couldn't be provoked at this time, none of them dared to speak up. They had never seen Mr. Li so furious before.

......

Three days have passed.

Mr. Ning was still nowhere to be found, and the Li family was terrified. Everyone knew that Mr. Li had been in a terrible mood these days, so much so that he hadn't even gone to work.

"Mr. Li, the people I sent out to investigate are back," the assistant said. "Mr. Ning went to the hospital that day and then took a bus towards the train station."

Li Yan didn't get angry, instead he chuckled. However, his laughter held a chilling ruthlessness.

He said lightly, "I'll have him dug out, even if it means digging three feet into the ground."

Li Yan knew that thinking about the young man wanting to leave him long ago, he almost wanted to kill him. His chest rose and fell rapidly, bloodshot eyes flickering within.

I can't imagine leaving his side.

Even if Li Yan had to break someone's leg, he would still bring them back.

.....

One month later.

In the most remote town in the city, a restaurant. A handsome young man with clear eyebrows and eyes works as an errand runner in the back kitchen.

Ning Shu wiped her hands, and it just happened to be time to get off work.

The manager still didn't interrupt him from his desire to go to the front desk, but Ning Shu thought about it and still refused him.

"Lin Ge, why don't you go to the front desk The front desk salary should be better, right Aren't you short of money"

Little Yang is a waiter at the restaurant. A month ago, Lin Shu came to the restaurant. Although he wasn't dressed well, he had good manners and a handsome appearance. The manager naturally wanted him to work at the front desk, after all, this might be able to attract more customers.

But Lin Shu insisted on working in the kitchen, where the work was dirty and tiring. Xiao Yang really couldn't understand why the other person would choose to do the menial tasks in the back kitchen instead of working at the front desk.

Lin Shu, also known as the renamed Ning Shu, smiled and said, "I think working in the kitchen is pretty good."

He's got a bit of a belly now. If he went to the front desk, he'd have to change into his work uniform. It's fine for now, but when his belly gets bigger, it won't be able to hide. But the kitchen is different, there aren't as many people watching.

Neither were there so many people watching.

Xiao Yang looked at Lin Shu, who was smiling, and thought that young people were really good. He didn't know why he came to their small place and did this kind of work.

Ning Shu lived in an ordinary rented house. When he first arrived, he didn't have much money. He could only afford a place of over thirty square meters, with rent of a few hundred yuan each month.

It was also a heavy burden for him.

Ning Shu couldn't do much work. Finding a place to eat was already a difficult task. He didn't know if Li Yan was angry, or if the other party was still looking for him.

Now, he just wants to live a good life here.

Ning Shu's situation was very difficult. He had taken out a month's salary in advance. The clothes he wore were the cheapest, and he usually lived frugally, unlike when he was at the Li family, where he was waited on by servants and didn't have to do anything.

He has lost several pounds since he came here a month ago.

Maybe Ning Shu didn't notice, but his colleagues working with him did. The young man's complexion was somewhat pale, and he looked a little thin, arousing pity in those who saw him.

"Brother Lin, your face looks bad. Do you want to rest for a while"

Ning Shu got up and smiled faintly at Xiao Yang. "It's nothing."

He probably guessed the state of his own body. This period was when he needed nutrition the most. However, Ning Shu didn't have that much money to buy those fish and meat. He had to budget every penny carefully.

Including living expenses, Ning Shu couldn't help but sigh, a touch of melancholy crossing her features.

Actually, he wasn't short of money in his card.

Li Yan would send him a large sum of money every month. But Ning Shu had never used it once, because he knew that if he did, Li Yan would know where he was.

Ning Shu initially went to the train station specifically to create the illusion that she had already left the city.

He got into another car in the crowd and arrived at this town.

Xiaoyang couldn't bear to see the young people's pale faces, so he ran to the kitchen to help.

Xiaoyang said, "You're welcome." He had never heard Lin Ge talk about his family before, and couldn't help but say, "Lin Ge, you came here without a single relative"

Ning Shu paused for a moment, then said softly, "They're gone."

Little Yang wore an expression of pity.

After work, Ning Shu felt a wave of fatigue wash over him. He knew his physical condition was not good. But he couldn't go to the hospital; if people found out, they would only think of him as a monster.

He rested on the bed for a while, then went to the bathroom.

The young man took off his clothes, and his previously flat stomach was now slightly protruding. Anyone who saw this would be astonished.

How could a man possibly have a slightly swollen belly like a pregnant woman

Ning Shu's lips were a little pale, and she was already two months pregnant.

He couldn't help but pat his stomach.

When hope arises in the heart, thoughts multiply as well.

....

Ning Shu was in the back kitchen, bending over to do the most ordinary work. The soreness in his waist made his face paler and paler.

But at this time, the restaurant was filled with a cacophony of noise.

Ning Shu didn't go out, but Xiao Yang came in: "Lin Ge, a few people just walked in. They asked if we had someone named Ning Shu. Their name sounded quite similar to yours, Lin Ge."

His heart tightened slightly.

Xiaoyang didn't notice the young man's face change. He continued, "What do you think those people are looking for someone to do"

Ning Shu took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and thought about how she had already changed her name. After a while, she spoke: “I don’t know.”

Little Yang said again, "Brother Lin, your face doesn't look good. Are you alright"

Ning Shu nodded.

That day's events left him feeling uneasy. Ning Shu was on edge, still hoping that Li Yan would forget about him soon.

But it seems that Li Yan has not let him go yet.

Ning Shu couldn't help but close her eyes, she couldn't let Li Yan find her.

He can't be seen like this. If the other side sees him, it's all over.y sculpted, and his eyes were captivatingly beautiful. Even the starlets of the empire would be humbled by his presence.He has also taken pictures of those celebrities.But those people, even though th...
