"What did you say?" Ji Qian's face suddenly changed. Such things were impossible for Ye Shikai to joke about. He was serious, no wonder... he's been acting this way since he came back.

"It wasn't until I went to Jiangnan this time that I found out about this," Ye Shikai said as he sat on the sofa, disheartened. Ji Qian seemed as if she had been struck by lightning, shaking her head slightly, her body retreating step by step, unable to accept the truth.

"You... you make me speechless." Ji Qian suddenly rushed forward and slapped Ye Shikai fiercely. He was neither surprised nor dodged, while Ji Qian was furious to the extreme. She had always loved Ye Shikai deeply, but after Su Qingyu 'entered,' she was willing to silently be an observer. But now, Ye Shikai revealed this news, how could she not be angry?

"Qian, listen to my explanation," Ye Shikai stepped forward wanting to speak, but was forcefully pushed aside by Ji Qian.

"Don't touch me," Ji Qian shouted like she was mad, pushing Ye Shikai out aggressively.

"Why?" Ji Qian stood at the same spot, tears streaming down her face. She broke down, shouting at Ye Shikai loudly.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault," Ye Shikai kept saying. Although Ji Qian stayed abroad for a long time, this didn't mean she shared such open-minded foreign thoughts, especially not recognizing terms like "one-night stand." Her view on marriage was very traditional, one husband, one wife, which is in line with most people's marriage concepts. They say that after a man cheats, once is likely to lead to many times. Even if the man intends to 'change for the better' and 'deeply reform,' he won't receive forgiveness from others, especially in today's society.

"Qingyu loves you so much, don't you understand?" Ji Qian was still emotional, beyond Ye Shikai's imagination. Faced with so much condemnation, he even felt a suicidal impulse.

"My lord, you..." At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Selena walked in. The loud noise from Ji Qian's roar seemed to have caused quite the commotion.

"Get out," Ji Qian was in a fit of rage, cursing directly. Selena left quickly, closing the door behind her in disgrace.

Half an hour later.

"How do you plan to face Qingyu and tell her that you're going to have a child..." After Ji Qian calmed down, she started thinking about how to wrap things up since the child was innocent. If born without a father, it would be even more pitiable. Chen Yuxin was determined to have the child, so she had to be given a status.

This also meant Ye Shikai and Su Qingyu's marriage had to end because of the child's birth.

"I don't know."

Ye Shikai never had the courage to utter the word "divorce." It was unimaginable how he would face Su Qingyu.

Su Qingyu also loved Ye Shikai deeply, and it was precisely because of this deep love that she felt extra heartache when betrayed. The deeper the love, the sharper the pain...

"If that day ever really comes, I'm willing to leave all my assets to her as some form of compensation." Ye Shikai was very helpless. Although the Tianya Group had a market value of only two or three billion, not comparable to the Chen Group's 'giant,' Su Qingyu was also an extremely wealthy woman. Money to her was just a string of numbers, and Ye Shikai's assets meant nothing to her. She loved the man, not the money. However, given Ye Shikai's current situation, all he could leave behind were these 'external possessions.'

"I have another solution," Ji Qian suddenly said, "When you get home, don't tell Qingyu about this."

"Why?" Ye Shikai was curious about this suggestion. Could Ji Qian intend for Ye Shikai to keep hiding this secret forever? How would that be possible? Chen Yuxin's belly would grow bigger day by day; hiding it now, but what about later?

"Don't worry about it; just don't say anything. For the rest, wait for my notification," Ji Qian emphasized with raised tones.

"This... Qian, what are you planning?" Ye Shikai was curious and wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"I told you not to ask," Ji Qian seemed to have transformed, suddenly 'pushing' Ye Shikai out of the living room.

"Also, just spend these days with Qingyu, ignore the Netherworld Palace affairs."

"Hey, clarify..." Before Ye Shikai could finish, he was pushed out entirely.

Bam.

The front door closed.

"What exactly is she planning?" Ye Shikai's curiosity rose abruptly, but immediately thinking about going home soon and facing Su Qingyu personally, his heart began to 'twist with worry.' Qingyu loves him so deeply, Ye Shikai really didn't want her to be heartbroken.

Inside the room.

After Ye Shikai left, Ji Qian took two long, deep breaths, appearing very tense.

"Selena," Ji Qian sat on the sofa, calming her mood. She had her own plans for first letting Ye Shikai temporarily keep the secret.

"My lord, any orders?" Selena, who was cursed out earlier, was mentally prepared, and upon hearing Ji Qian call her, immediately walked in.

"You secretively notify Ghost, Nightmare, Soul Destroyer to come here immediately. Remember, don't let the Netherworld King know about this."

"Yes, my lord, I'll take care of it immediately."

.....................

South America.

At this moment, Ghost, who was handling affairs far away at the South American branch base, received the secret message from the Moon God Temple. Previously, because of the special relationship between Ye Shikai and Ji Qian, the Netherworld Palace and Moon God Temple had close ties, so they had a special means of communication that ordinary people didn't know.

"Ghost, what exactly happened?" Soul Destroyer and Demoness gathered around. This form of secret communication hadn't been used for a long time.

"Lord Moon God wants us to leave for Yanjing and bring a team of elite Hidden Guards." Ghost was slightly curious about what Ji Qian intended with such a large move.

"Why is that?" Demoness asked curiously.

"Didn't say," Ghost fell into thought, blandly replied, "Anyway, let's do as she's asked first."

"Also, notify Tony; leave the South American business to him." Ghost hurriedly packed his luggage, while managing other remaining matters.

Europe, Netherworld Palace headquarters.

"Reporting to Lord Nightmare, there's a secret message from the Moon God Temple for you," a Hidden Guard approached with a document.

"What's going on here?" Nightmare reviewed the document multiple times, just like Ghost, he began feeling curious about why he was urgently summoned to Yanjing, wondering what had happened.
