Chapter 118: Vicious

Qiao An widened her eyes, was stunned again, and, moved, nodded, "Okay, thank you, Brother Nan Gong Jue."

As for the matter of Nan Gong Jue being expelled by Nan Gong Yu, Qiao An was no longer anxious.

Even if expelled, he is still blood‑related; after a while Nan Gong Yu's anger will subside.

If she insists on refusing the expulsion, she will not be able to marry Nan Gong Jue.

Getting married first is what matters.

Now it finally settles.

Originally Nan Gong Jue wanted to take Qiao An to the hospital to check her face, but Qiao An now fears going to the hospital.

She evaded, saying she wouldn't go anywhere, insisting she must go to the set to appear professional.

Nan Gong Jue could only say, "Fine. I'll send you to the set; when you finish, call me and I'll pick you up. Tonight… where do you want to stay?"

Besides the old mansion, Nan Gong Jue of course also has a house.

Since the two have the Marriage Certificate, what they didn't do last night can be done tonight legally and properly.

Qiao An hurriedly said, "Brother Nan Gong Jue, I want to go home tonight. Such a big matter must be told to my parents."

Nan Gong Jue nodded, "I almost forgot."

Qiao An added, "Even though we have the Marriage Certificate, we skipped all the prior procedures. Our family rule is that a girl must stay at her parents' house for a week before the wedding."

This wedding is definitely rushed.

Nan Gong Jue also realized that indeed there is nothing, not even a wedding ring purchased.

"Okay." Nan Gong Jue nodded, "According to your family rule, I'll take care of the rest."

"Mm." Qiao An finally managed a smile.

Nan Gong Jue took Qiao An to the set; after getting out of the car, she said coquettishly, "Husband, bye‑bye."

She said that and shyly walked away.

The single word "husband" pleased Nan Gong Jue; thinking it over, he realized he had many things to do.

Wedding ring, Betrothal Gifts, wedding photos, wedding ceremony, and also setting up a company for Qiao An…

None can be omitted.

His marrying Qiao An means a total fallout with his family; his parents will obviously side with his older brother.

But… even if they fall out, these procedures are still required.

He is essentially… establishing his own household.

Even though Nan Gong Jue feels very uncomfortable and unaccustomed to being independent.

But he also began to handle the matters that need preparation.

After Qiao An turned around, her face turned completely pale.

She suddenly realized… if she miscarried, her body couldn't immediately share a bed.

At least a month, right?

But how could she have the Marriage Certificate and still postpone cohabitation for a month?

Qiao An was suddenly at a loss, feeling she had miscalculated.

Thus, perhaps the only risky move is…

Just sharing a room with Nan Gong Jue?

But she just said she must stay at her parents' house for a week…

What to do now?

Qiao An's heart raced, breaking out in cold sweat.

Song Huan Yan, in the office, told Sang Wan everything.

Sang Wan, shocked, said, "Holy crap, is it really that awesome? My worldview is shattered! Does Nan Gong Jue have a problem with his brain?"

Song Huan Yan pondered, "Maybe Qiao An disguised herself too well. I truly underestimated the lethality of Love Brain."

"What to do then?" Sang Wan asked. "They won't end up sleeping together tonight, will they?"

Song Huan Yan shook his head, "Qiao An wouldn't dare…"

After speaking, he paused, thought carefully, then picked up the phone and called Tang Chenge.

Song Huan Yan told Tang Chenge to use a rush‑job excuse, making her shoot until the late night.

After hanging up, Song Huan Yan looked at Sang Wan, "I suspect tonight Qiao An will go back to the Bieshu with Qin Zi Mo. As for how to make an excuse to Nan Gong Jue, she'll probably say she needs to stay at her parents' house for a few days."

Sang Wan raised an eyebrow, "Consult Qin Zi Mo for a plan?"

"Mm." Song Huan Yan nodded, then added, "By the way, accompany me tomorrow afternoon to handle something."

"What matter?" Sang Wan asked.

Song Huan Yan said, "Did you forget that Bieshu?"

Sang Wan thought for a moment, then suddenly understood, "Got it!"

Tang Chenge indeed demanded overtime, shooting until 2:30 AM before the crew wrapped.

It was really late; Qiao An was already exhausted.

And she kept feeling anxious and worried.

Just as Song Huan Yan expected, Qiao An went to Qin Zi Mo's Bieshu.

Qin Zi Mo, though insisting on filming, was in a terrible state after the shoot ended.

Back at the Bieshu, Qin Jiao Jiao and Qin's father and mother were already asleep.

The two entered the Bedroom.

Qiao An, however, snapped first, saying, "Song Huan Yan, you fell ill because of the wedding? Didn't you say you despised her a lot? Why are you still so affected?"

Qin Zi Mo, half‑lying on the bed, said wearily, "She's married; what chance do I have left?"

Qiao An didn't quite believe it, but said, "I'm also married."

"What?" Qin Zi Mo startled out of his illness, sat up, stared at her in disbelief, "What did you say?"

"I married Nan Gong Jue." Qiao An sat on the bedside, "He is determined to take me, even if it means breaking with his family. In a few days his elder brother will publicly issue his Expulsion."

Qin Zi Mo completely didn't understand what was happening.

Qiao An continued, "But he also insists on taking me; this morning we went to register and got married."

Qin Zi Mo was so shocked his eyes nearly popped out, "Are you crazy? Isn't my child still in your womb? You're carrying my seed and marrying another man; if he finds out you'll be risking your life? If you want to die, don't drag me down with you!"

Qin Zi Mo at this moment realized Qiao An was a complete lunatic.

Qiao An said, "He doesn't know it's yours, what are you afraid of? Besides, I won't let him find out."

Qin Zi Mo anxiously said, "The child hasn't been dealt with yet and you're busy getting married. Now that you're married, aren't you sleeping with anyone else? How? You haven't even had that so‑called repair surgery. Forget whether it's repaired; aborting the child will need recovery time, right? Can you keep postponing intimacy? Qiao An, what's in your head? You're so impatient! Can't you wait until all this is sorted out?"

Qin Zi Mo truly felt like he could die of anger.

When he said that, Qiao An knit her brows and suddenly felt she was the one being impatient.

Her lively temperament makes her get anxious at the slightest trouble, not calm or steady.

She should use Nan Gong Yu's opposition to first separate from Nan Gong Jue, keep Nan Gong Jue hanging, and after everything is settled, reconcile with Nan Gong Jue.

Thinking that, Qiao An grew even more depressed, irritated to death, and snapped, "Why didn't you say it earlier?!"

Qin Zi Mo, even more enraged, cursed, "I always knew you're a hot‑tempered pig‑brain! I didn't tell you early? Did you ever tell me? I'm sick to death, and you go marry someone else! I say, what did I say, what did I say, the hell do I know?!"

"I'm only afraid he'll run away," Qiao An defended.

Qin Zi Mo held back repeatedly and didn't slap her, saying, "I think you want to die! If that family finds out how you're playing, you won't even know how you die! You—you're trying to kill me! In short, if you want to die, don't drag me along!"

Qin Zi Mo's fear reached its limit.

Qiao An, also frightened by his words, said, "Why are you shouting? It's not that serious. He loves me deeply, he won't doubt me, I have a way."

Qin Zi Mo stared at her, "What way do you have? Do you think I'm a fool? Also, you said he was expelled from the family to marry you—why would you still marry him?"

Qiao An said, "Expulsion is just their brothers' spite; no matter the Expulsion, he's still the second young master of the Nan Gong."

Qin Zi Mo didn't want to speak further, saying, "Leave, go quickly. This is where we end."

Qiao An, hearing that, began to cry, saying she did all this for Qin Zi Mo.

Qin Zi Mo, unable to bear her crying, forced himself to stay calm, saying, "Then what do you suggest we do?"

Without waiting for Qiao An to speak, he added, "You're already married to him, where's the time to find an excuse for surgery? You've turned this into a dead end! I advise you to leave tomorrow morning. Go abroad, don't come back, or wait until you've sorted things out, then find an excuse to return!"

Qiao An said, "How is that possible? If I leave, things will get even worse."

Qin Zi Mo scolded her, "So you're brain‑dead for going to register the marriage?"

Qiao An, irritated, grabbed her hair, "It's already like this, what do you expect me to do! Stop scolding! I'm still doing this for you!"

Qin Zi Mo also went berserk, "Now what should we do, you tell me!"

Qin Zi Mo didn't expect that, in this situation Qiao An's solution was to go with him.

Instantly his eyes widened in shock, and instinctively he slapped Qiao An's face, "You're really a lunatic!"

During this period Qiao An had been treated gently by Nan Gong Jue, and now being hit by Qin Zi Mo made the commotion even worse.

The two quarreled, and later Qin Zi Mo finally understood Qiao An's meaning.

Her meaning was actually: … see if we could get the child ruined …

Qin Zi Mo felt he was going insane; his illness hadn't healed, yet he had to endure this torment.

He stared at Qiao An, "Are you crazy?"

Qiao An said, "Now that it's come to this, what can we do? Can you think of a solution?"

Qin Zi Mo could only think of making her leave.

But before he could speak, Qiao An said, "Listen to me, it can't go wrong."

Qin Zi Mo asked, "If we ruin it, how will you explain, how to cover it up?"

Qiao An, with a serious face, "Just say it's a period. I have a friend whose menstrual cycle is irregular and hasn't ended for a month. That way we can hide the time, actually the best method! Haven't I been stimulated enough these past days? Under stimulation, a messed‑up period is the most normal thing."

"What if there isn't?" Qin Zi Mo asked.

Qiao An said, "If there's none, then it means sleeping with him won't cause anything. When I share a room with him, I'll get him drunk. After that I can do whatever, deceiving him into thinking it's my first time…"

Qin Zi Mo had a terrible headache.

Qiao An said, "Why are you still just standing there?"

After saying that, she went to hug Qin Zi Mo.

Qin Zi Mo pushed her away, "After the deception? You think, now that you're married, you only sleep that one night?"

Qiao An frowned, "Then, it's still best to get rid of it. Just say the period came."

Qin Zi Mo also agreed this was the best method.

With no choice, he took a deep breath, nodded, "Fine. Tomorrow go to the hospital for the medicine, abort directly. Quickly solve this problem. Come, I'll escort you home."

Qiao An widened her eyes, "What do you mean?"

Qin Zi Mo said, "You registered with someone in the morning, stayed at my place at night, and even asked me to personally abort the child; do you think that's… reasonable?"

Qiao An gritted her teeth, "The hospital won't give the medicine, saying there's not enough time; what can I do? If you don't help me with this, who will I turn to? Right now there's only this one method, only this method can solve it in one go, once and for all!"
