He didn’t intend to live that long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan pulled Ye Jiuliang to sit down next to him, wrapping his iron arm around her waist with a fluidity as natural as the flowing clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang gave him a sidelong glance but said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan reached for a piece of pastry and handed it to her, \"This is good, try it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the pleasing smile in his eyes, Ye Jiuliang’s tense expression instantly crumbled, and she chuckled softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She nibbled on the pastry he gave her, her tender body instinctively leaning into his embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the improvement in the mood of the wolf cub in his arms, the frost in Li Mochan’s eyes gradually melted, and his hand around her waist tightened a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about some tea?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can I get a beer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No,\" Li Mochan flicked her forehead with his finger, \"I’ll have someone get you a bottle of juice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang’s last struggle, \"I want it with ice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without any surprise, the man immediately refused, \"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The unexpected display of affection took everyone by surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the two acting so affectionate, everyone was baffled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did Ye Jiuliang truly not care, or did she trust Li Mochan too much? She was still in the mood to eat at a time like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, the person has been brought in,\" the butler’s voice, neither servile nor overbearing, came from the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he finished, curious glances were cast from all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The butler stepped aside, revealing the woman behind him to everyone’s view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman’s face was pale, her lips red, and her almond-shaped eyes filled with timidity. Her pretty face, slightly made up, indeed made her a beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the sunlight, her light green dress made her look like a tender willow in the wind, while her slightly protruding belly drew everyone’s attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The belly looked about four months along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, Ye Jiuliang had probably just returned to the capital and hadn’t gotten together with Li Mochan yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman, facing so many important figures for the first time, clutched her dress tightly and seemed ill at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come here,\" the old patriarch Li commanded, his presence so commanding it made hearts quiver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman, wearing flat shoes, came forward apprehensively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The patriarch scrutinized her sharply, asking bluntly, \"Who do you claim is the father of the child in your belly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her head bowed, the woman’s lips quivered, \"It’s, it’s Master Li Five.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, everyone held their breath, their glances drifting subtly towards Li Mochan’s direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that so?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chill in Wen Liang’s voice seemed to cut to the bone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman followed the source of the voice, and upon seeing a stunningly beautiful face, the hint of a cool, thin smile made her shiver with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang gave the woman a glance. The face did look somewhat familiar; she must have seen her somewhere before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s your name?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Liao Ya.\" The woman steadied herself, her gaze sweeping past the man next to Ye Jiuliang, a trace of greed and jealousy flickering in the depths of her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang turned to the man beside her, \"Do you recognize her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others were exasperated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man could be a bit more heartfelt when speaking. He hadn’t even looked at the woman from head to toe and already claimed not to know her as if trying to deceive a three-year-old.\u003C\u002Fp>",1397,"2026-05-30T05:18:55.761Z","2026-06-01T04:30:24.264Z",1,"novelbin.me","720a08c9018de885156b6f69d00b02cd8f5d557d8ab5d5eb0e7677b17abe07cc","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-300","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-298",877,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-cover.jpg"]
