Chapter 834: A bit of an eyesore
Li Xiao took the initiative to invite him; how could Lu Kasi possibly refuse?
Even if he knew very well in his heart what Li Xiao's motive was, it didn't affect his desire to spend time alone with Li Xiao in the slightest.
"Alright!" Lu Kasi's joy was evident, and he reached out to hug Li Xiao very happily: "Thank you very much."
If he didn't know that Lu Kasi liked men, this hug might not have made Li Xiao feel uncomfortable, but unfortunately, he did know, so any intimate gesture Lu Kasi took the initiative to make toward him was, in Li Xiao's eyes, ulteriorly motivated.
His whole body tensed up instantly, but Li Xiao persisted and took the initiative to hug him back: "You're welcome, this is what I should do. In our Chinese saying, it's fulfilling the duties of a host."
"Then let's exchange contact information." Lu Kasi suggested proactively.
And so, Li Xiao successfully obtained Lu Kasi's contact information.
Shen Ci watched from afar, her interest piqued, and she even began to imagine the subsequent scenes in her mind.
She knew Li Xiao very well; for the sake of success and fame, he could sacrifice and abandon many things. This was the deep-seated inferiority in his character, never easily exposed, but once exposed, it would be completely devoid of a bottom line.
Just like in her past life when he stole her thesis and claimed it as his own, and the various pressures he later exerted on her in the industry.
If Li Xiao really slept with Lu Kasi for this matter, Shen Ci asked herself, she truly wouldn't feel surprised at all.
Because this is Li Xiao!
Shen Ci hadn't had much interest in coming to this launch event in the first place, but being able to witness this didn't make the trip a waste.
And she clearly wouldn't be satisfied with just this.
She could do without the terminal technology; if Li Xiao could really be completely devoid of a bottom line, then she'd concede, and this project should belong to Li Xiao.
But as for Li Xiao, she had never thought about letting him off.
She walked to a corner and dialed Guo Zifan's number; she hadn't been in touch with this hacker detective for a long, long time.
Guo Zifan was also surprised to receive Shen Ci's call: "Yo-ho, long time no see, beauty. Finally remembered me again?"
"Not looking for you should be a good thing for others, right? It means life is relatively peaceful."
Guo Zifan chuckled: "That's true. People who look for me usually don't come unless there's a problem. Tell me, beauty, what's the matter this time?"
"Follow two people for me these two days and take some photos."
"Just this? You could find any paparazzi to do this, and fan-site photographers are even more professional. Isn't it a bit of an overkill to find me?"
"I still trust you." Shen Ci said: "The job isn't hard, but the reward I give will definitely satisfy you."
"Aren't we being too formal?" Guo Zifan quickly said: "Just for the sake of the friendship between Lianxing and me for so many years, plus the money you gave me for those previous matters, I'll treat this job as a gift."
"That's not necessary. I have more money than I can spend; you just need to get the job done for me."
Upon hearing this, Guo Zifan stopped being polite: "Alright then, you're still the generous one, beauty. Is it catching an affair? Don't worry, I did plenty of this kind of work in the early days; I know the ropes."
"It's not catching an affair..." Shen Ci said subconsciously, but after reacting, she hesitated: "But I guess it counts..."
Guo Zifan: "Tell me in detail."
"Two men. I hope you can capture some scenes I want to see."
Guo Zifan on the other end of the phone wrinkled his face like a chrysanthemum upon hearing this: "You want to see it, but have you thought about whether I want to see it? I still have to chase them to take the photos."
"See, this job isn't as easy as you thought, right?"
Guo Zifan hummed and laughed: "Yes, it's a bit of an eyesore, but it's fine. I'll take it. Give me the information on the two of them, the more detailed the better."
"No problem."
Meanwhile, on the other side, Shen Jingjing and Jiang Yuanliang were undergoing a pre-marital checkup at the Juner Academy.
Gao Zhan specifically found someone to cover his shift to accompany them the whole way. Jiang Yuanliang kept a low profile, wearing a hat and mask, but the happy expression could be seen clearly in his eyes.
"Uncle, Auntie, the results are out."
Gao Zhan used a bit of his professional convenience to obtain the various examination results for the two of them in advance.
Shen Jingjing hadn't been nervous at first, but after finishing, she suddenly became nervous while waiting. She looked at Gao Zhan and said to herself: "There shouldn't be any problems, right, Gao Zhan?"
Gao Zhan felt her nervousness and gave her a reassuring smile: "Don't worry, Auntie, there are no problems. I originally thought there might be some minor issues, but I've looked at the reports; neither you nor Uncle have any problems. You are both very healthy."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jingjing's face lit up with joy, and she exchanged a happy look with Jiang Yuanliang.
But Jiang Yuanliang still asked more carefully: "Gao Zhan, at your aunt's age, will there be any danger if she gets pregnant again?"
Shen Jingjing also looked at Gao Zhan.
Gao Zhan was a bit surprised. He looked at Shen Jingjing, stunned for a moment, and asked uncertainly: "Auntie, are you planning to have another child with Uncle after you get married?"
"Yes, that's what we're thinking."
Shen Jingjing became nervous again.
Fortunately, Gao Zhan just nodded gently to show he understood, then looked at them seriously and explained: "Uncle, Auntie, objectively speaking, women over 45, which is Auntie's current age, are a high-risk pregnancy group. However, relying on modern medical systems and standardized management, the vast majority of older pregnant women can achieve good pregnancy outcomes."
"Simply put, the risk exists objectively, but through comprehensive, professional medical technology and management, the risk can be effectively controlled. You don't need to worry too much."
"However, since you have this plan, I still suggest you prepare for pregnancy as soon as possible, because the older the pregnant woman, the higher the risk will be. Most importantly, high-age pregnancy will more or less leave some impact on the body; this is unavoidable. Young pregnant women will also have it, so it will be more serious for older pregnant women."
The two nodded. Jiang Yuanliang looked at Shen Jingjing with heartache: "Forget it, let's not have any."
Shen Jingjing just smiled.
Gao Zhan also smiled: "Uncle, don't be nervous. There won't be any major problems. You have to trust current medical technology."
The two left the hospital and got into the car. Shen Jingjing glanced at the time and asked: "You're going to the group today, right? I'll go back by myself; it's very close to home from here."
As a result, Jiang Yuanliang grabbed Shen Jingjing and reminded her while looking at her: "Look, you've forgotten what you said yourself."
Shen Jingjing frowned, looking puzzled: "What I said? What did I say?"
"You said, as long as our pre-marital checkup has no problems, we'll get the marriage certificate immediately. Have you forgotten?"
Jiang Yuanliang was truly urgent. Shen Jingjing couldn't help but laugh: "You want to go now? That's fine, I haven't forgotten. I was thinking of finding a time in the next two days, but at this hour, they're almost on lunch break, right?"
"Let's go queue up first; we'll be the first pair in the afternoon." ===== CHAPTER 835 =====
