Defrosting The Cold Young Master - Chapter 2293 - 2297: A Man’s Responsibility

Zhan Jinchuan sighed silently.

The more Li Suyue said this, the more guilty he felt.

“Let’s leave it at that,” Zhan Jinchuan said, “If you need my help in the future, you can contact me.”

After speaking, he hung up the phone.

Li Su looked at the disconnected phone in his hand, completely bewildered.

Because of Ruan Feifei asking him for money, he already had a bad impression of her.

Yet despite this, he still had lingering feelings for Ruan Feifei.

After all, he had loved deeply.

Love is the most persistent and passionate emotion, not easily able to switch from deep love to indifference.

But after hearing Zhan Jinchuan’s words, even the most persistent and passionate feelings were extinguished.

Recalling Ruan Feifei now, he only felt disgusted.

He finally understood what it meant to meet a femme fatale.

Now he realized how wise and insightful his mother had been.

His mother had been willing to harm herself to make him divorce Ruan Feifei because she saw Ruan Feifei’s true nature and couldn’t bear to let him be deceived by such a malicious woman.

Even if it’s for his mother, he could never have any involvement with Ruan Feifei again.

In the car, after Zhan Jinchuan hung up the phone, he tiredly pinched the bridge of his nose.

He considered himself a fine man of integrity, with a clear conscience.

Li Su was the only debt of his lifetime.

Gu Junzhu glanced at him, placing a hand on his shoulder: “You don’t need to feel too guilty, he was as foolish as you, it’s not entirely your fault.”

Zhan Jinchuan: “…Thanks for the comfort, but I don’t feel consoled at all.”

Gu Junzhu patted his shoulder and laughed, his shoulders shaking with mirth.

Zhan Jinchuan sighed speechlessly: “Are you really that happy to see me played by someone?”

“Yes, happy,” Gu Junzhu nodded with a smile, “Why wouldn’t I be happy to see something entertaining?”

“I’m happy too!” Xiao Shumiao raised his right hand and said cheerfully.

Zhan Jinchuan’s mouth twitched.

He felt that in front of Xiao Shumiao, he might never possess “authority” in this lifetime.

His dignity had been completely lost in front of Xiao Shumiao.

He patted Xiao Shumiao’s little head: “Why are you happy?”

Xiao Shumiao puffed out his small chest and said, “I’m happy because my dad is happy!”

Zhan Jinchuan: “…You’re really sweet!”

He subconsciously looked at Siao Fengqian’s belly.

When he first heard about Siao Fengqian’s pregnancy, he only felt anger and anxiety, without a hint of delight.

But now, after spending more time with Xiao Shumiao, he began to have expectations for the child in Siao Fengqian’s belly.

Xiao Shumiao was truly adorable.

Beautiful and soft, when he looked at someone with his big, bright eyes, they couldn’t help but feel their heart melt.

Both he and Siao Fengqian were quite good-looking, as long as nothing unexpected happened, their future child would surely be as beautiful and cute as Xiao Shumiao.

Seeing Zhan Jinchuan’s gaze at her belly filled with anticipation, Siao Fengqian couldn’t help but curl her lips into a smile, grabbing his hand and placing it on her belly: “I hope our child will be as smart and adorable as Xiao Shumiao in the future.”

Zhan Jinchuan’s heart softened immensely, and he pulled her into his arms, hesitated a bit, then lowered his head to kiss the top of her hair: “It will be.”

Even now, doing these intimate actions with Siao Fengqian still posed a mental barrier for him.

He had to force himself to do it.

But what he should do, he would not do any less.
