Speaking of this, Tan Si had a headache. She didn’t want to put this child in her household register. If that happened, she really wouldn’t be able to get rid of him.
She was still going to marry into a wealthy family in the future. How could she bring such a burden along?
“Let’s talk about it after some time. My phone is about to be collected,” Tan Si lied.
After saying that, she hung up the phone, ignoring Wang Li’s unfinished words.
Tan Si had actually been thinking about how to deal with the child recently. Since she had already given birth, she could only raise it. However, she could not appear as a mother with the child, so she had to make everyone forget about this child.
It was also because of this that she participated in the training. Not only could she give herself a shot, but she could also temporarily withdraw from the public’s view.
When the time came, she would just leave the child to a nanny. Anyway, she did not lack money, but she could not let this child appear in the news again.
More importantly, she wanted to know who the father of the child was. She wanted to tear the man who had ruined her plans into pieces.
At the same time, the man in Jingdu City was listening to his subordinate’s report. “Young Master, Zou Bai has been staying in Lin City recently. 1 think he’s staying in a hotel near a production team.”
“What do you mean by ‘you think’?” The man fiddled with the lighter repeatedly. “Are your inquiries so ambiguous?”
“The Zou Clan’s Intelligence Network is really powerful. If we approach, we will definitely be noticed.” The messenger lowered his head and apologized.
“So you’re saying that our Zhao family can’t compare to the Zou family at all?”
As soon as this question was asked, everyone began to tremble.
Zhao Yan put away the lighter in his hand and sneered. “This Zou Bai is actually staying in a small city. He must have his own considerations. We have to find out the reason.”
Although the Zhao family was also one of the four major families in Jingdu City, they had gradually declined because of what had happened decades ago. It was only because of Zhao Yan’s grandfather that they did not fully decline.
However, it was not enough compared to the Zou family. After all, they had already begun to develop overseas forces, while the Zhao family was struggling to maintain the situation in Jingdu City.
Zhao Yan and Zou Bai were about the same age. His parents had compared him to Zou Bai since he was young. From bigger things like his grades to small things like his clothes and food, they had to compare him. Then, they would spurn him for being inferior to Zou Bai.
Under such education, Zhao Yan had never felt the love of his parents, and he hated Zou Bai very much.
He wanted to make a name for himself and let everyone know that Zou Bai was inferior to him.
However, ever since Zou Bai inherited the Zou family, his power grew day by day. Zhao Yan, the heir of the family, was not on the same level as him.
“I don’t believe that he won’t make mistakes for the rest of his life,” Zhao Yan said coldly.
Secretary Wu Ming, who was standing beside him, said, “Young Master, don’t worry. I’ve already gotten someone to investigate what happened before. Zou Bai must have done something that day.”
Only then did Zhao Yan remember that two years ago, he and Zou Bai were in the same hotel. At that time, he had a beautiful affair.
“Did you find out who that woman is?” Zhao Yan asked.
Wu Ming lowered his head. “The hotel that day was especially chaotic. Moreover, the surveillance cameras were not turned on from the beginning. The registration records were also destroyed. We can only take our time to find
it.”
Zhao Yan didn’t get angry when he heard this. Instead, he smiled. “The more this is the case, the more it means that Zou Bai is guilty. What happened in the hotel is definitely his shame.”
He couldn’t wait to find out what had forced Zou Bai into such a state.
The Zhao family’s investigation in Lin City was quickly reported to Zou Bai by the people of the Intelligence Network.
He didn’t really care. “Zou Yi, just let the Zhao family learn a lesson.”
He had always known Zhao Yan’s intentions, but as long as he was not hindered, it was not a big deal. The Zou family’s matters were already enough for him to be busy with. He did not have the time to care about others.
When Jiang An heard this, she walked over and asked, “What Zhao family?”
Zou Bai pulled her into his arms and said, “It’s nothing. The Zhao family in Jingdu City wants to investigate me. It should be their heir, Zhao Yan. 1’11 get Zou Yi to send them away.”
Jiang An had some understanding of the four major families in Jingdu City. She had even taken notes during the heir class previously. She recalled and said, “Zhao Yan shouldn’t have any conflict with you. Why did he find someone to investigate you?”
“The four great families don’t have any conflicts on the surface.” Zou Bai smiled and said, “But Zhao Yan always thinks that I’m his lifelong enemy and wants to find a place to attack me..”
