Chen Qiao and her husband were not soft-hearted at all.
Black J wanted to move into the Holy Glory Palace. This was the first step in his revenge, and Phillips would definitely settle it for him.
He ordered someone to release a notice and wrote a long article about how Qiao Qiao refused to leave the Holy Glory Palace even though she was not the Queen. His words were heavy, as if Qiao Qiao and her family had committed a heinous crime. Then, he said that Black J moving into the Holy Glory Palace was in accordance with God's will. He blabbered on and on just to chase them away.
"Hmph, they've gone too far! Do they really think we're easy to bully? " Adam threw the report on the ground, his face gloomy. "They want us to move out of the Holy Glory Palace? Wishful thinking!"
If they moved out, it would confirm the rumors that they were spreading. How could he go along with them?
He Shaochen also knew what the rumors outside were saying. He raised his eyebrows. "Let's not talk about other things. Phillips's public relations team is really good. They're also very good at inciting people. The J Organisation is really capable. Do you need me to help? I'll get the news agency to shut them up … "
"You?"
Adam glanced at him in disdain. "Forget it. Even if the live experiments have been suppressed, the people of J Country are now prejudiced against He Clan. If you interfere, it will only make things worse. Just obediently fork out the money."
He Shaochen smiled bitterly. "Why do I feel like I've become a sucker?"
Others just had to ask for money and they would send it over?
He stood up slowly and straightened his wrinkled clothes. "That's fine. After all, this is Qiao Qiao's family. I'll give you as much money as you want as long as you don't implicate us. To be honest, I don't want to care about this mess. Anyway, Qiao Qiao is not the Queen now. Even if those people quarrel fiercely, she doesn't need to interfere. Today, I'll make things clear. When Qiao Qiao gets better, I'll bring her back to A Country.
Because of the necklace, Qiao Qiao's condition was improving and she could talk to him more every day. He did not expect Qiao Qiao to be alive and kicking in front of him immediately. As long as she was alive, he would be satisfied.
Originally, He Clan's branch in J Country also had a CEO. It was not good for him to occupy this position every day. There was still a mess waiting for him to clean up in his own country.
Seeing He Shaochen's indifferent attitude, Adam did not know whether to laugh or cry. He thought that after these days of interaction, they would have established some revolutionary friendship. In the end, this man was still too realistic. However, as long as he could treat Lilith well, Adam would not ask for anything else.
"Bring Lilith to A Country … That's good too. Now is not the time to distract her. Once this matter is resolved, I'll go look for her …"
"You don't have to come." He Shaochen's mouth twitched. He wanted to bring Qiao Qiao back with him. Firstly, he hoped that Qiao Qiao could avoid worldly disputes. Secondly, he hoped that he could get rid of Adam, the ultimate idiot. Although he knew that Adam's feelings for Qiao Qiao were not love, seeing this person staring at his lover with such passionate eyes made him feel uncomfortable all over.
Adam saw through his thoughts and sneered. "You want to get rid of me? I'll be by Lilith's side for the rest of my life. Don't even think about leaving me aside! "
He Shaochen: "…"
Being seen through, He Shaochen coughed dryly and said with a straight face, "Don't think too much. I've never said such a thing!"
"Humph, you know very well whether that's what you think or not."
Since the truth was out in the open, He Shaochen no longer tried to hide it. "Anyway, Qiaoqiao will definitely stay with the He family when she returns to A Country. As for you, I won't be so kind as to let you move in."
"You don't have to worry about this. I don't care about staying with Family He either. I'll buy a house nearby and pick Lilith up in the future …"
Did this guy really intend to carry out his idiot spirit to the end?
He Shaochen's eyes also twitched. "You'd better clean up this mess first before thinking about other things …"
Speaking of this, He Shaochen said half-jokingly, "Who knows, maybe in the end, you'll fight to the death with the J Organisation and perish together …"
Adam's expression froze.
His dark red eyes flashed. Although he knew He Shaochen was joking, it was also very likely. The final battle was inevitable. At that time, could he really survive to find Lilith? What if he died?
"If, I really die …"
Adam paused and then looked at He Shaochen seriously. "At that time, I'll leave Lilith in your care. In this lifetime, you're not allowed to bully her, scold her, or lie to her. You have to be good to her for the rest of your life and love only her. If you let her suffer even the slightest grievance, I won't let you off even if I become a ghost!"
"Joe Qiao is my wife. Of course I know what to do. Can you not treat Joe Qiao like your daughter?" He Shaochen teased, but saw Adam's dark red eyes were calm and persistent. He heard him say, "I want you to promise me now that you're not allowed to bully her for the rest of your life!"
He Shaochen was silent for a second, then solemnly promised, "I won't bully her for the rest of my life."
After receiving He Shaochen's promise, Adam's expression relaxed. He smiled in relief. "Then I'll believe you one more time."
He Shaochen was probably affected by Adam's feelings of entrusting him to someone else, so he kindly comforted him. "Don't be so pessimistic. No one can say for sure that you won't die."
Adam snorted. "Of course I won't die. I'm just saying 'if'. I'll try my best to survive. I want to see Lilith grow old little by little and have countless children and grandchildren. A hundred years later, when she goes to another world, I'll go with her."
This idiot was hopeless.
He Shaochen looked at Adam's twinkling eyes and sighed in his heart.

The necklace did indeed have a miraculous effect. Previously, Qiaoqiao had always felt that her body was very painful and heavy, making her feel as if she was being pressed down by a huge rock. Now, it was as if the huge rock that was pressing down on her to the point of suffocation had been removed, making her feel a lot more relaxed.
She sat on the bed while Freya sat beside her and peeled an apple for her.
After peeling the apple, she stuffed it into her mouth. Qiao Qiao couldn't dodge in time and could only catch it. "Mom, I'm not a child anymore. I can do these things myself."
She was already an adult, yet she still had to let her own mother feed her. Why did she feel a little embarrassed?
"In my eyes, no matter how old you are, you're still my child." With that, Freya stuffed another piece of apple into her mouth.
Qiao Qiao: "…"
Soon, Qiao Qiao saw He Shaochen walk in. As if she had seen a savior, she hurriedly said, "Shaochen, come and eat the apple! My mom peeled it. It's really sweet! "
He Shaochen: "…"
Freya: "…"
He Shaochen sighed. He put aside the fruit platter in front of Freya and said to Freya, "She's just recovered a little. It's better to give her less cold food. It's not good for her stomach."
With that said, he sat on Qiao Qiao's bed and reached out to touch her forehead. "Your temperature is back to normal. Looks like you're recovering well."
Qiao Qiao gave He Shaochen a big smile. "That's right, that's right."
"But you can't let your guard down. With your weak body, anything is possible.
"It's not like what you said!" Qiao Qiao pushed his hand away unhappily. Then she looked at him expectantly. "Can I see Sichu and Sijie? I haven't seen them since I was hospitalized. "
"The little guys are doing well. You'll be able to see them when you're discharged."
Qiao Qiao pouted. "But I want to see them now …"
"A place like the hospital is full of bad luck. It won't do them any good."
The hospital was full of the smell of disinfectant. But even if it was fully disinfected, it might not be able to kill all the germs. Children had weak bodies. He didn't want to see the two children fall sick. Seeing Qiao Qiao's pitiful look, he sighed again and said, "Although I can't see them in person, I can still see their photos."
Qiao Qiao's dim eyes suddenly lit up. "You have photos of the little guys?"
"Yes."
He Shaochen took out his phone. There were photos of Sichu and Sijie. He remembered that Qiao Qiao had been staying in the hospital and didn't have many opportunities to see the children. So he took photos of the children. It would be good if she could see the photos when she woke up and missed the children.
Qiao Qiao's expression softened when she saw the two children. "I feel that the little guys have grown up. Their hair is longer too."
"When the children turn 100 days old, I'll hold a grand banquet for them. I'll invite all the famous people from all walks of life to celebrate."
"That's not good, is it?" Qiao Qiao was stunned. "That's too much of a fuss."
He Shao Chen didn't think much of it. He raised his brows, looking indescribably arrogant. "My, He Shao Chen's, child must be the moon surrounded by the stars and the eyes of millions of people. Si Chu will be happier than any princess in this world. When she grows up, I will arrange for her to have a young and handsome man with both ability and integrity, whose family background is comparable to the He family's. She will be one of the two happiest women in the world. As for Si Jie, I will nurture him and make him a man of indomitable spirit, who can protect his mother and sister …"
Qiao Qiao could feel that He Shaochen's eyes were shining when he said these words. She was moved.
She laughed and fell into He Shaochen's arms. "I didn't know that you were thinking so much."
"Of course, I'm the father of the children. Of course I'm thinking a lot!" He Shaochen said matter-of-factly. He put his arm around Qiao Qiao's waist and rested his hand on her stomach. He continued in a serious tone, "Oh yes, I've thought about it. Sichu can't let those rascals off so easily. I'm going to choose a few more candidates and give them all kinds of tests. Only the most outstanding ones are worthy of Sichu!"
Qiao Qiao laughed hysterically. She felt that He Shaochen's serious look was especially adorable. "When will you change that temper of yours? You've already said everything. You've chosen so many candidates for the Sichu. What if they don't like our Sichu? "
He Shaochen snorted and said, "They don't like us? Our Sichu is so cute. If they don't like us, I'll make those rascals kneel down and beg for forgiveness! "
"How can you be like this! What if the children are spoiled? "Qiao Qiao started to worry about the children's education.
He Shaochen became more and more indifferent. "Even if they do something terrible, I'll be able to shoulder it for them! Our Family He has more than enough capital for them to squander. "
Qiao Qiao: "…"
Why was she becoming more and more worried about the children's education? With such an unreliable father, Qiao Qiao was worried for her children.
"Next time, I'll get someone to connect you to a video call. By then, you'll be able to see the children's movements at the hospital."
"Okay."
Qiao Qiao leaned into He Shaochen's arms and nodded silently.
Her heart was filled with anticipation.
