Chapter 391 I'm Pregnant!
Chapter 391 I'm Pregnant!
A slight change finally appeared on Han Xi's usually calm face.
His dark eyes instinctively glanced at Fang Li opposite him, but Fang Li quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
Then the gaze shifted to Xu Qingrang.
The old man leaned against the headboard, looking at him with a benevolent smile, but Han Xi always felt that there was a strange murderous intent hidden in that smile.
--
As Han Xi left the Xu family's old residence, he gradually came to understand something.
"Does Grandpa know?"
Xu Fangye feigned ignorance: "What?"
"..." Han Xi looked at him quietly.
Xu Fangye felt helpless under his gaze, touched the tip of his nose and said, "Maybe. He's the one who asked me to call Guo Bao back. There's also this person you might not know. Normally, if something happened to him, he would be too busy keeping it from Guo Bao to tell her and make her worry."
So, the old man did it on purpose?
How much does he know?
"I don't know. During this time, although I instructed the servants to deliberately keep the news from the capital, and I also cut off the internet at the old house, my grandfather is cunning and shrewd. Perhaps it was these things that aroused his suspicion and he found something from other places."
Upon hearing this, Han Xi frowned slightly, turned around without saying a word, and prepared to go back.
Xu Fangye reacted quickly and grabbed him, "What are you doing?"
"Go and tell Grandpa the truth. We can't let Ali bear this alone."
"Mr. Han, aren't you worrying too much?"
Xu Fangye gave a speechless twitch of his lips. "That's my and Guo Bao's grandfather. Even if he knows something, he might say a few words to Guo Bao at most. What can he do to her?"
"Besides, Guo Bao isn't as well-behaved as you see her. She has plenty of tricks up her sleeve to deal with Grandpa. Your presence will only hinder her performance."
"......"
Seeing Han Xi still worried and hesitant, Xu Fangye put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Let's go, it's okay. Now you should just wait for the announcement. It's been a long time since we've seen each other, let's go have a drink together."

"grandfather........"
Only the grandfather and grandson remained in the room, and Xu Qingrang's smile finally vanished completely.
Fang Li realized that although it was true that her grandfather had fallen, his real intention was to use the opportunity to call her back.
It seems her affair with Han Xi can no longer be kept secret.
"When did it start?"
Fang Li bit her lip and said timidly, "It hasn't been that long either."
"Not long is a long time!"
"It was the third day after I returned from Hangzhou..."
"........"
Xu Qingrang suddenly stopped talking, and Fang Li, with her head down, peeked at him uneasily.
"Grandpa, I know it was wrong of me to keep this from you, but at the time..."
Grandpa probably still doesn't know about the company's troubles, so we can't let him worry any more.
Fang Li paused, then changed her words, "After I broke up with Song Yuchen, Han Xi saved me at the beach. He's been taking care of me ever since. I just thought he was a really good person, so I thought..."
"He only took care of you for a few days, and you think he's so great?!"
"No, it's not just that, he also..."
Xu Qingrang said with a hint of exasperation, "What? You said the same thing about that kid surnamed Song back then, and what happened? Guobao, men are the best at pretending. You can't just judge a person so easily!"
“I know, but Han Xi and Song Yuchen are really different.”
"Why is he keeping your relationship a secret? Why doesn't he just tell me openly and instead lures you to the capital?!"
“I…he…”
For the first time, Fang Li felt a sense of frustration that she couldn't express.
I don't know how to explain it to my grandfather so that he can understand. There are things I should say but I can't say, and there are things I can say but he won't believe.
"Grandpa, please believe me, Han Xi is really a good person, I like him very much."
Xu Qingrang stared at his granddaughter seriously, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly said in an unquestionable manner: "I don't care whether he's good or bad, just talking about this matter of poaching my Xu family's members, what he did was not decent."
"Your return is just in time. From today onwards, don't see him. I'll have your brother tell him to return to the capital tomorrow!"
"grandfather!"
Xu Fangli was both shocked and anxious: "No, you can't do this!"
Xu Qingrang glanced at her, looking as if he had already made up his mind.
Fang Li's heart tightened, knowing that her grandfather was truly angry this time. She bit her lip, thought for a moment, and then closed her eyes and said, "We've already registered our marriage."
“........” Xu Qingrang’s eyelids twitched.
"What did you say?"
Fang Li didn't dare to look at him: "Anyway, we are now a legally protected couple, you can't be so forceful in separating us."
Xu Qingrang was so angry he was practically spitting fire: "So, all you've learned all these years is this! You lied to us, and you even dared to secretly get a marriage certificate?! So what if you got the certificate? We're getting a divorce tomorrow!"
"..." Now it was Fang Li's turn to be silent.
Xu Qingrang frowned sharply when he saw her expression: "What? You don't want to?"
Fang Li lowered her head, looking resigned to her fate, and said, "It's not that I don't want to, but the main reason is actually because... I'm pregnant!"
"What did you say?!"
He thought he understood the whole thing and was mentally prepared. When he saw his granddaughter with a stern face, he just wanted to give this disobedient granddaughter a good scare.
But Xu Qingrang never expected that surprises would come one after another, and his expression finally changed drastically.
Pregnant?
The news that came back didn't say that his daughter was pregnant!
"You said...you..."
Fang Li closed her eyes in annoyance and gritted her teeth, saying, "Yes, it's been almost three months."
---
Just as Xu Fangye led Han Xi to the place where they were drinking, the phone rang from the old house.
"Where's that kid surnamed Han?!"
As soon as the call connected, the old man's strong voice came through.
Even from a seat away, Han Xi could hear the anger in the old man's voice.
Xu Fangye looked at Han Xi with some confusion and asked, "You're with me, what happened?"
Xu Qingrang roared, "Make him come back right now!"
"what?"
"What do you mean 'ah'? You're coming back too!"
After hanging up the phone, both of them were completely confused.
Xu Fangye: "What did you do?"
Han Xi shook his head.
"That's strange. Guobao is usually the best at coaxing Grandpa, so why is she suddenly so angry?"
"......"
Seeing Xu Fangye's puzzled expression, Han Xi's brows twitched slightly and furrowed a little.
-
When the two returned to the old house, it was already half an hour later.
It was the same room in the backyard where the old man lived. When the two of them went in, they saw Fang Li sitting properly on the edge of the bed, while the old man sat silently against the headboard with a sullen face.
"You, go call your parents now and tell them to come back immediately, no matter what's important!"
Xu Fangye was taken aback: "Now?"
"Can't understand?!"
Xu Qingrang shouted, and Xu Fangye immediately nodded, "I understand, I'll go right away, I'll go right away!"
