C10 Let's go home.

I took the banana and took a bite. I said politely to Tang Yuchen, "Thank you." I forced a smile at Tang Jihong and said, "Yuchen cares about us. We should accept it. In the future, when Yuchen needs help, it won't be too sudden for us to care about him."

Tang Jihong nodded and slowly stood up, gesturing for Tang Yuchen to leave. "Yuchen, thank you. In order to thank you tonight, I will hold a banquet in Jade Restaurant to express my gratitude. I wonder if you would appreciate it?"

I was stunned. I could not figure out what Tang Jihong was thinking. I had tipped off the assassination attempt last time. Could it be that he wants to continue this time?

I was suddenly afraid. My eyes were fixed on Tang Yuchen. I shouted in my heart, "Don't go, don't go". He didn't invite you out of goodwill.

Actually, I know that Tang Yuchen is such a smart person. How could he not know that this is a trap?

"Then tonight at eight o'clock, I will wait for you in Jade Restaurant." Tang Yuchen's serious face faintly glowed. I don't know if it is his own light or if he has always been my sun in my heart.

I still chose to follow tonight's banquet. Although Tang Jihong had warned me before I left, I was the only one who knew that I would appear beside him the moment an accident happened.

Jade Restaurant was a place where the big shots of the business world often came to when they were discussing matters. This grand and luxurious hotel had witnessed countless dirty deals.

"Mr. Tang, the room you booked has been prepared by someone. Please follow me. I will serve you the whole time." The manager was dignified and generous. She did everything perfectly. My eyes fell on her the whole time. I hid behind Tang Jihong, and the big fat hand on my arm was grabbing me tightly.

Ding. The number on the elevator stopped at the seventh floor. Tang Jihong looked at the number and seemed to be praising, "Seven is a good number."

I don't know what these people are thinking. A number can make them sigh. Sure enough, he did not have an undeserved reputation. I stroked my slightly bulging belly. I walked carefully with every step. The moment the elevator door closed, I deliberately pulled Tang Jihong's hand and said coquettishly, "Why is seven a good number?"

Tang Jihong's footsteps paused. Clearly, he did not expect me to suddenly act coquettishly at such an occasion. He turned his head to me and smiled. He said in a low voice, "If you want to know, I will tell you later tonight."

My stomach suddenly turned upside down. I bent forward and kept retching. Tang Jihong patted my back. "Go back. You are not suitable to be here like this.

I quickly waved my hand." No, no, since I'm here, I'll stay with you for a while. It's alright to leave later. "

He didn't bring me home, but when I entered the room, I wanted to leave, because there were only three chairs and three people in that big room!

"You came on time. Miss Ann had a little accident, so I was a little late." Tang Jihong explained with a fake smile. I secretly looked at Tang Yuchen. He shook the red wine in his hand seriously as if he did not hear what Tang Jihong said.

Tang Jihong was ignored and probably got angry. He pulled my hand harder. I could clearly feel it.

"Three of you, your dishes are all on the table. Call me if you have any questions. I'll wait at the door." The manager bowed. She turned around and walked out of the door with an open bottle of red wine in her hands.

After a long time, the oppressive atmosphere in the big room made me unable to catch my breath. I took big gulps of fresh air, but looking at Tang Yuchen opposite me, I had the motivation to sit down again.

The two people at the table said the most polite words one after another, and the atmosphere fell into an awkward and deadlock.

Suddenly, I don't know what I missed, but my name actually appeared in the conversation between the two of them. My nerves instantly tensed up, afraid that Tang Yuchen would directly talk about the child's matter. I took the opportunity to sneak a glance at him while I was eating. Coincidentally, he also looked at me. When they looked at each other, the corner of his lips slightly curled up, making me somewhat unable to resist.

I really want to tell Tang Yuchen that is not the time to talk now.

"Xin, what do you think about Yuchen's suggestion just now?" Tang Jihong's sudden words made me a little confused. Did the two of them talk just now?

I awkwardly fiddled with my chopsticks and stuttered, "I think it's not bad."

"Oh? Is that so?" Who would have thought that Tang Jihong's expression would immediately turn ugly. Tang Yuchen looked at me with a gloating expression. I instantly realized that I said the wrong thing.

"No, no, no, no. I'm saying that I just focused on eating and didn't hear what you guys said. You guys continue chatting." After saying that, I rubbed my aching waist and got up slightly, "I'm going to the washroom."

The two of them watched me leave. When I was about to close the door, I was still worried about the situation inside. I specially left a small slit so that I could rush in immediately.

Perhaps I was thinking too much. Until the end of the meal, the two of them did not quarrel. I thought there was no trap tonight, but I was thinking too much. But when I left the meal, I realized the true meaning of this meeting.

Many bodyguards in black lined up neatly in the meeting hall. The door of the meeting hall was tightly shut, and the windows had already been lowered. Right now, apart from this group of men in black, there was probably only me and the two men in front of me left in the entire building.

I stood behind Tang Jihong. His hands were in his pockets, and I leaned against the railing. Just like him, I could only feel my lower abdomen in the pocket of my shirt.

Tang Yuchen stood opposite me and looked at me. His eyes were warm and sincere. I shook my head and unconsciously took two steps towards him, as if he had magic.

"Ann Xin!" Tang Jihong's low voice made me come back to my senses. When I turned around, I was already half a meter away from him. I stood where I was and did not know what to do.

"I... I just..."

"You want to tell me that you want to ask Tang Yuchen for information and save me?" These words were obviously mocking me. I lowered my head and dug my nails into my palm.

"Come back!" With a scolding, I turned around obediently. Tang Yuchen did not say a word during the process, and I did not dare to look at him. Perhaps he had watched a good show, or perhaps he had taken Tang Jihong's words seriously.

Just as I took a step forward, Tang Yuchen suddenly spoke, "Xinxin, come here."

My feet paused, and I was stunned on the spot. When I turned around, he was gently extending his arm towards me, waiting for my response. Once upon a time, every time the class ended, he always greeted me like this. Next, it was me who pounced on him.
