Lin Chu was still thinking about it when Dai Huimin called him.
Lin Chu picked it up and said with a smile, "I was still thinking. I don't know if there's anything else on your side, but you called."
"Sigh." Dai Huimin sighed, "We're thinking that if we don't have to trouble you, we won't trouble you. It's best if we can solve it ourselves. Otherwise, if we trouble you and the Yan family finds out, they might look down on you. We don't want to drag you down. This is the only thing we can do now."
"Since you called me, it seems that you haven't solved the problem?" Lin Chu asked, then got up and left the office.
Dai Huimin nodded, but then she remembered that Lin Chu couldn't see through the phone, so she said embarrassedly, "Yeah. Jiaojiao had been discharged from the hospital for more than half a month, but Cheng Ziming had not come to see her. So, we don't agree to let her be with Cheng Ziming, but Jiaojiao doesn't want to give up, so we've been in a deadlock. "
Dai Huimin told Lin Chu what happened during this period of time.
It turned out that Xu Jiaojiao regretted hanging up on Cheng Ziming in the hospital that day. She felt that she had been too impulsive. That night, she called Cheng Ziming, but Cheng Ziming did not pick up.
After returning home, the more Xu Jiaojia thought about it, the more flustered she became. She kept calling Cheng Ziming.
Finally, one day, Cheng Ziming finally picked it up. He told her that he didn't pick it up because he was on a plane. He was in America now, visiting his wife. Although he had no feelings for his wife, he still had to put on an act.
Xu Jiaojiao was scared when she heard this. She was worried that her child would be gone and Cheng Ziming would reconcile with his wife. She wouldn't get anything and would suffer such a huge loss.
She immediately cried pitifully in front of Cheng Ziming.
She had made the call secretly, but Dai Huimin had heard it. So the mother and daughter quarreled again. Unfortunately, Xu Jiaojiao was recuperating, and Dai Huimin couldn't bring herself to beat her up when she saw her thin, weak, and pitiful appearance. She could only cry and sulk on her own, thinking that it was retribution for the sins she had committed in the previous half of her life.
Xu Jiaojiao's body had recovered. Although her lochia hadn't stopped, it didn't affect her going out normally. Dai Huimin still did not allow her to go to Lin Mao, much less see Cheng Ziming.
If she didn't call Cheng Ziming, Cheng Ziming wouldn't take the initiative to call her.
Hence, Xu Jiaojiao understood Cheng Ziming's attitude. She just didn't want to admit it and remained stubborn on the surface. Because he refused to accept reality, he still held on to empty hope.
Dai Huimin talked to her until her lips were about to break. She told her that Cheng Ziming didn't want to take responsibility. Even if he was in the United States, couldn't he even make a phone call? He wanted her to quickly recognize the reality and stop being stubborn.
However, Xu Jiaojia stubbornly refused to listen.
After Lin Chu listened, he said, "I think Xu Jiaojiao is more embarrassed than anything else. She knew it now, but she was so confident that Cheng Ziming was serious about her. In the end, it didn't take long for things to become like this. She couldn't accept it. Plus, she suffered such a big loss. I think it's best to let Cheng Ziming explain things to her face and let Xu Jiaojiao see his true colors with her own eyes. "
"I know, but Cheng Ziming didn't even call her. How could he tell her clearly in person? I think Cheng Ziming is trying to distance himself from Jiaojiao. "Dai Huimin sighed.
"I have a way. Listen to me. I need you to cooperate with me," Lin Chu said.
Lin Mao still had to work half a day on Saturday, so Dai Huimin went to Lin Mao's door and waited for Cheng Ziming to appear.
Coincidentally, Yan Beicheng had to work overtime on Saturday and was still at the company. Lin Chu drove his own car to pick Xu Jiaojia up. They went to a cafe and sat down in the corner.
There were potted flowers in between each booth. Although it wasn't a private room, it was still a good shelter.
Xu Jiaojia only asked for a glass of warm water and didn't even add lemon. She and Lin Chu looked at each other in silence, so it didn't take long for her to get impatient.
"Why did you bring me here? Hurry up and tell me!" Xu Jiaojia said impatiently.
"There's nothing to say to you. Just keep quiet later," Lin Chu said indifferently.
The cafe was very close to Lin Mao. It was only a few steps away.
Xu Jiaojia turned her eyes and wanted to go to Lin Mao to find Cheng Ziming.
Lin Chu sneered and drank a mouthful of grapefruit tea. "Don't worry, you'll see the person you want to see in a while."
"What do you mean?" Xu Jiaojia was stunned.
Today, Dai Huimin was waiting at Lin Mao's door. At around 12 o 'clock, she finally saw Cheng Ziming walk out of the door. He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, looking very dignified.
Dai Huimin almost couldn't hold back and wanted to hit him. She clenched her fists and calmed down with great difficulty. She immediately walked over and blocked Cheng Ziming's way.
Cheng Ziming didn't know Dai Huimin. Seeing that she wasn't dressed well, he frowned and asked in annoyance, "Who are you?"
Dai Huimin raised her hand and slapped Cheng Ziming. "I'm Xu Jiaojia's mother!"
Cheng Ziming was slapped on the street. Behind him, Lin Mao's staff walked out, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
"Where did this shrew come from? What are you doing here?!" Cheng Ziming said angrily.
"Do you want me to tell you here? Jiaojia got pregnant because of you, and now she had a miscarriage. You've been hiding for the past few days. I want to ask you, what do you want? "Dai Huimin raised her voice and said.
Anyway, Lin Mao knew everything about Xu Jiaojia, so she was going to throw caution to the wind today.
Sure enough, Cheng Ziming tightened his jaw and grabbed Dai Huimin's arm. "What's with all the noise?!"
"It's fine if you don't want me to be noisy, but you have to talk to me." Dai Huimin also lowered her voice.
Cheng Ziming thought that Dai Huimin was here to ask for benefits. Sure enough, Xu Jiaojia was greedy, and her mother wasn't any better.
The corner of his mouth twitched mockingly. "Fine."
Dai Huimin was afraid that Cheng Ziming would run away, so she directly grabbed his suit sleeve.
Cheng Ziming frowned in disgust, as if Dai Huimin's hands were dirty. He wanted to shake her off. "Let go!"
"I won't!" Dai Huimin grabbed tightly. She had been working all year round, so she had a lot of strength. She didn't lose to Cheng Ziming. "You're such a despicable person. What if you run away if I don't hold you tight?"
Cheng Ziming snorted coldly and was eventually dragged into a cafe by Dai Huimin.
When Lin Chu saw the two enter, he hid inside and reminded Xu Jiaojia, "Cheng Ziming is here, don't make a sound. If you want to talk to Cheng Ziming, I'll give you a chance later, but you have to listen to what he has to say first. "
Xu Jiaojia opened her mouth, but in the end, she obediently closed it. In her heart, she also wanted to hear what Cheng Ziming wanted to say.
Dai Huimin sat next to them according to the agreement she had with Xu Jiaojia.
As soon as they sat down, Cheng Ziming asked, "How much do you want?"
"I don't want much money. I just want to know what you plan to do with Jiaojia. Jiaojia got pregnant because of you, but she had a miscarriage, and you didn't even come to see her. You didn't even tell her that you were back in China. Are you trying to break up with her? Whether you continue to be with her or break up with her, you have to give her an explanation! "
"Explanation? What explanation do I need? Your daughter is the one who stuck to me for money. We both know that. She knows that I have a family, so what explanation do you expect? "Cheng Ziming said coldly.
Xu Jiaojia's face was deathly pale, and tears streamed down her cheeks.
"Originally, the whole company knew about our relationship, and my wife was coming back soon, so I couldn't keep her. I wanted to have a showdown with her, but who knew that she would get pregnant. I originally planned to raise her outside since she was pregnant, but she had to resign from the company. Now that she's pregnant, the child is gone. In that case, I might as well break up with her. I've made it clear to you today, so you should go back and talk to her. Don't let her call me again. If I don't take the initiative to look for her, she should understand what I mean. That is, my feelings for her have faded. Isn't it good for us to part on good terms? "
"You know your own daughter well. She's not smart. If she was smart, then I wouldn't mind continuing to be with her. But she's too stupid, and I don't have the patience to deal with her stupidity, "Cheng Ziming said coldly.
"In the beginning, when Xu Jiaojia first entered the company, she still knew her place. But because she got together with him, she felt that she was more and more amazing. She even called herself the boss's wife and bossed her colleagues around in the company. She was so pleased with herself that she even forgot her own surname. She's such an idiot. If I continue to be with her, I'll be implicated by her. To tell you the truth, even if I get a divorce, I won't be with her. She's not presentable, and it'll be shameful for me to bring her out. If she takes good care of the baby, I won't treat her unfairly in the future. But she can't even keep the child. "
Although he no longer had feelings for Xu Jiaojia, he was still very happy to know that Xu Jiaojia was pregnant with his child.
Lin Yuwen couldn't bear a child, so having a child was his obsession.
Xu Jiaojia was already mad. She didn't know if it was pain or anger, but her whole body was trembling.
She was about to get up to confront Cheng Ziming, but Lin Chu grabbed her and glared at her sternly, telling her not to go out.
Xu Jiaojia was discouraged by Lin Chu's glare. She didn't know why Lin Chu's glare was so imposing and scary. She couldn't muster up any courage to resist, and her whole body turned cold from the glare.
In the end, she could only obediently sit back down and cry silently. Tears streamed down her cheeks.
Her mouth opened and closed as she silently cursed. Lin Chu could tell that she was scolding, "Bastard! Bastard! "
Lin Chu also felt that Cheng Ziming was a bastard, but it took two hands to clap. Xu Jiaojia asked for it.
Lin Chu silently took out a tissue from his bag and handed it to her. Xu Jiaojia took it, covered her face with the tissue, and continued to cry silently.
Then, she heard Cheng Ziming continue, "But in any case, she followed me for a while. She's responsible for the miscarriage, but I'm not such a heartless person."
Cheng Ziming took out a checkbook from his bag and hastily filled in the numbers. He tore it off, pinched the thin piece of paper between his index and middle fingers, and casually threw it in front of Dai Huimin.
