I’m Pregnant with the Villain’s Child
Chapter 229
Chapter 229 – Wasn’t this Ye Qing’s opportunity to appear in front of socialites and shine radiantly and elegantly in the novel? (2)
About half an hour later, after Zhouzhou had been coaxed to sleep by Ye Zhen and she brought him back to his nursery, Lu Beichuan finally came out of the bathroom. Ye Zhen noticed the time and raised her eyebrows. “Half an hour, why do you take longer to wash up than a woman? Were you trying to wash off an ink stain?”
Lu Beichuan hadn’t dried off yet. His hair was dripping wet, and there was a large wet spot on his pajamas.
He concisely answered, “The hot water is broken.” And left for the study.
Ye Zhen stepped into the bathroom and checked the water.
Huh? There was nothing wrong with the hot water.

It was twilight, and the clamorous villa had gradually fallen silent. Lu Beichuan was leaning on the headboard and reading the latest news. Ye Zhen was studying an area of filmmaking that she wasn’t familiar with as a producer. Lu Beichuan would occasionally ask her about what happened during the day and Ye Zhen would answer with a few words.
When 10:30 PM arrived, Ye Zhen yawned and put down the materials in her hands to go to sleep.
Lu Beichuan casually asked, “There’s a function I have to go to in two days. I need to bring a female companion.”
Ye Zhen was very sleepy. She drowsily asked, “When?”
“Next Wednesday.”
“Sure.” Ye Zhen had self-knowledge of her position as Mrs. Lu. “I definitely won’t embarrass you when the time comes.”
Lu Beichuan’s smile was hidden in the light’s shadow and couldn’t be clearly seen.

Whether it was her family or her career, everything was going in a good direction. All of the plots in the novel seemed to have been changed. During this time, Ye Zhen was busy with Zhouzhou and work matters related to the movie. Thus, she naturally didn’t pay attention to other people’s affairs.
When Wednesday arrived and she found out who the host for the reception was, she was stunned for a long time.
The reception that Lu Beichuan mentioned was actually a birthday reception. Haibin’s mayor was celebrating his wife’s birthday. The guests were naturally honored to get an invitation and dressed up beautifully. They wanted to glamorously shine at this reception.
Wasn’t this Ye Qing’s opportunity to appear in front of socialites and shine radiantly and elegantly in the novel?
In the novel, that mayor’s wife was very satisfied with Ye Qing’s performance. She had profusely praised Ye Qing for being elegant and well-educated. It was exactly because of this that Lin Zhan and Ye Qing had risen up a level in Haibin. Following Ye Qing’s friendship with the mayor’s wife, the mayor viewed Lin Zhan in a new, favorable light. It would serve as a new starting point for Lin Zhan.
Now that the plot had changed, Ye Zhen was curious if she would see Ye Qing at this reception.
“What’s wrong?” Lu Beichuan looked at Ye Zhen. She had tightened her grip on his arm. He asked in a low voice, “Nervous?”
Ye Zhen tugged on her halter dress. She shook her head. “No, I just thought of Zhouzhou. He’s home alone…”
The atmospheric pressure around Lu Beichuan plummeted. He was especially displeased about how Ye Zhen had focused all of her attention on Zhouzhou during this period. What was so good about him? He was an annoying brat that just learned how to say mom.
“Mom will take good care of him. Don’t worry.”
That was just a made up excuse, so Ye Zhen didn’t continue speaking after Lu Beichuan’s reassurance.
Soon, they arrive at the hotel.
The doorman pulled open the door. Lu Beichuan got out of the car first and then stood next to the car to help Ye Zhen get out. Ye Zhen wrapped her arm around Lu Beichuan’s arm.
Many people were already at the reception. Lu Beichuan’s arrival with his wife attracted a lot of attention. After all, Lu Corporation was number one with regards to business. No one could look down on its strength.
