The Temptation of CEO's Pregnant Ex-Wife
Chapter 346: Qiqi, I am the Mother, Not Her

Chapter 346: Chapter 346: Qiqi, I am the Mother, Not Her

Cheng Zhiwei’s eyes were now filled with Zhou Ruoki. She did her utmost to control her emotions, making herself appear gentle, "Qiqi, come over to Aunt Cheng, I’ll take you to find the stars."

Now, she just wanted to keep this child.

She had made a decision in a heartbeat, regardless of whether Zhou Ruoki was her child, after this matter was resolved, she would treat Zhou Ruoki as her own.

"Aunt Cheng, please tell Dad to let Mom and me go," Zhou Ruoki pleaded, her eyes red and teary with desperation.

Cheng Zhiwei felt as if her heart were being twisted in pain.

Although Seo Zhenzhen had said she had bought the child to scare Zhou Ruoki, Cheng Zhiwei believed that Seo Zhenzhen was telling the truth.

Cheng Zhiwei did not know what had happened back then, but she was certain Zhou Ruoki was not Seo Zhenzhen’s biological child.

She couldn’t let this child go.

"Qiqi, we can talk about everything once we get home. If you behave like this now, you’ll only make Dad angry," Cheng Zhiwei said in a soft and gentle voice.

Seo Zhenzhen fiercely pulled Zhou Ruoki to her side, putting on a pitiful expression, "Cheng Zhiwei, stop trying to drive a wedge between my son and me. I know you want to get back with Zhou Lin, I’ve left him to you, just leave us alone."

"Seo Zhenzhen, don’t talk nonsense in front of the child," Cheng Zhiwei told her, unamused.

"What else? You keep insisting Qiqi go with you, isn’t it because you want to drive me away? Let me tell you, you’ll never take my son away from me."

Cheng Zhiwei was so angry she almost laughed. She was about to speak when Zhou Lin frowned and spoke first, "Fine, Zhou Ruoki, if you really want to go with her, I can agree to it, but you must understand, once you leave, you will have nothing."

A three-year-old child, what could he possibly understand?

Zhou Ruoki did not know what he would lose, but he knew that if he didn’t leave with Seo Zhenzhen, he would lose his mother.

"I’m willing."

"No." Cheng Zhiwei stared coldly at Zhou Lin, "He can’t leave."

But Seo Zhenzhen, terrified that Zhou Lin might change his mind, started to run away with Zhou Ruoki.

"Qiqi." Cheng Zhiwei immediately gave chase and grabbed Zhou Ruoki’s other hand, anxiously saying, "Qiqi, I am your mother, not her."

She had originally planned to wait until she brought Zhou Ruoki back and had a paternity test done before saying this, but now she couldn’t hold back any longer.

She couldn’t lose Zhou Ruoki.

Even if deceitful people were present, she had to speak out.

All the onlookers were stunned by the news.

Their gaze shifted back and forth between Cheng Zhiwei and Zhou Ruoki.

Zhou Ruoki’s features leaned more towards Zhou Lin, not resembling Cheng Zhiwei much.

But in truth, Zhou Ruoki didn’t resemble Seo Zhenzhen much either.

Zhou Ruoki looked at Cheng Zhiwei blankly, at a loss, "Aunt Cheng?"

Seo Zhenzhen was already panicking; she had returned from abroad seven months pregnant and later quietly aborted the child.

It was He Lanzhi’s child; she could not possibly bring it into the world.

To keep everyone in the dark afterward, she arranged for someone to buy a child from the outside.

That child was Zhou Ruoki.

It seemed as though even the heavens were helping her; when she pretended to be in labor, Zhou Lin was preoccupied with the divorce from Cheng Zhiwei, and Zhou Ruoki looked strikingly similar to Zhou Lin as a child. Lin Yu fell in love with Zhou Ruoki at first sight, and no one doubted anything.

But now, Seo Zhenzhen naturally couldn’t reveal the truth.

Her eyes filled with hatred as she glared at Cheng Zhiwei, "Cheng Zhiwei, wasn’t it enough for you to take Zhou Lin? Now you also want to snatch away the child I bore with such difficulty for ten months?"

Zhou Lin had already sensed something was wrong and walked over with a stern face.

His men naturally started to gather around.

Seo Zhenzhen became even more frantic, looking toward He Mingzhu as if begging for help, and He Mingzhu said, "There’s room for negotiation in everything; let’s not make too big a scene."

Her words, however, were ineffectual amidst the commotion.

She was about to step forward when He Ye happened to walk beside her, "Sister, that’s their business."

The meaning was clear: He Mingzhu had no right to interfere.

He Mingzhu’s eyes were cold, but her tone remained gentle, "Xiao Ye, you should persuade Zhiwei. It’s not right to make a scene on the street like this, it looks bad."

He Ye didn’t speak but stood firmly by He Mingzhu’s side, blocking her from getting through.

Darkness crept into He Mingzhu’s eyes as she saw Seo Zhenzhen about to be captured by Zhou Lin’s men.

If she was caught...

On the other side, Seo Zhenzhen was in a state of panic. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, when suddenly the sound of a car’s whistle due to its high speed came from not far away.

Everyone’s faces changed at that sound.

Seo Zhenzhen turned pale and fiercely yanked at Zhou Ruoki, clearly intending to push Zhou Ruoki out in front.

She jerked violently. Caught off guard, Cheng Zhiwei watched as Zhou Ruoki was pulled out.

Cheng Zhiwei’s body reacted faster than her brain, and she threw herself out to hug Zhou Ruoki; the two of them almost rolled over in front of the car to the opposite side.

"Zhiwei," Zhou Lin’s voice was filled with fury and horror as it echoed throughout the neighborhood.

He also pressed Cheng Yang’s head into his chest and rushed over.

Seeing the two motionless figures curled up on the ground, his blood seemed to freeze, and it took two seconds for his brain to catch up before he fell to his knees.

Shaking all over.

"Zhiwei."

Cheng Yang threw himself on Cheng Zhiwei, "Mom."

Zhou Lin’s eyes were red as he shook while turning Cheng Zhiwei over, only to find that her eyes were still open, though her gaze was somewhat dispersed.

Her arm was still tightly wrapped around Zhou Ruoki.

She hadn’t been hit by the car, and her body only had scrapes.

The reason she hadn’t moved was that she was paralyzed with fright.

Her mind was still blank, and she didn’t know how to react now.

The sound of that huge crash seemed to linger in her ears.

A crash?

Cheng Zhiwei’s face was deathly pale, and with trembling lips, she looked across the street.

There, Seo Zhenzhen lay in a pool of blood, her body still convulsing.

Cheng Zhiwei suddenly came to her senses, hugging Zhou Ruoki and Cheng Yang close, so they wouldn’t see such a bloody sight.

But the next second, Zhou Ruoki had already wiggled out from her embrace.

"Qiqi," Cheng Zhiwei said weakly, unable to hold her.

She gritted her teeth, stood up with Zhou Lin’s support, pushed Cheng Yang into Zhou Lin’s arms, and staggered up to find Zhou Ruoki.

Zhou Ruoki knelt beside Seo Zhenzhen, tears falling one by one, the bright red blood spreading under his legs, yet he just knelt there, motionless.

Crying soundlessly.

High heels stopped beside him, He Mingzhu bent down slightly and spoke softly, "Oh my, your mother was killed by Cheng Zhiwei."

He Ye was right beside her, and on hearing her words, he was stunned, "Why would you say something like that to a child?"

What did she mean by saying Cheng Zhiwei killed his mother?

It was clearly an accident.

He Mingzhu covered her mouth with her hand, looking innocent, "If it hadn’t been for Cheng Zhiwei stopping them, how could Seo Zhenzhen have had the accident?"

Zhou Ruoki’s stiff body finally moved, reaching out his thin fingers to pull at Seo Zhenzhen, crying out loud.

"Mom."
