Chapter 723: Fake Gentleness

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Tan Si was sent to the ward. The Zhao family was rich, so they naturally could not let her stay in an ordinary ward. They booked the entire VIP ward on the top floor to prevent anyone from disturbing her rest.

The secret guard quickly brought the computer over. Zhao Yan opened it to see what Tan Si was using it for. He was furious.

Her daily browsing records were all about Jiang An. Then, she commented crazily below, slandering her.

This way, there would naturally be people who would retort. Tan Si was immersed in scolding others on the Internet. No wonder she became hot- tempered.

He knew that Tan Si hated Jiang An, just like how he had treated Zou Bai. He wanted to live a better life than the other party. However, now was not the time to let her emotions affect her. She still had a child in her stomach. How could she be angry every day?

Zhao Yan really wanted to pry open Tan Si’s brain to see what kind of structure it was. She could not even differentiate between priorities.

He had never wanted Tan Si to enter the Zhao family. Now, he was even more determined. He even decided not to let the child stay by her side. He had to carry him away from birth.

If there was such a stupid mother, the child would also be led astray.

However, no matter how he thought about it, he could not take action now. He had to coax Tan Si well. Anyway, there were still two months before the due date, so he did not have to endure it for too long.

Zhao Yan had been mentally preparing himself. He felt that he had suffered a huge grievance. From the beginning to the end, he had never considered Tan Si’s feelings. It was as if she was just a child-bearing machine without any thoughts.

When Tan Si opened her eyes, her first reaction was to touch her stomach. She realized that the child was still there and heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, she turned around and saw Zhao Yan. She was so frightened that she almost cried out. She was afraid that he would scold her.

However, Zhao Yan was unusually pleasant. He brought over a cup of water. “You just woke up. Have some water. Are you feeling unwell?”

Tan Si shook her head. “I’m fine.”

“You scared me to death. When you recover, I’ll move to the villa to accompany you,” Zhao Yan said as he stroked her hair.

For a moment, Tan Si could not get used to his gentleness. Previously, when the two of them were together, other than arguing, they would only argue. It was rare for them to have such a gentle conversation.

Zhao Yan could tell that she was not used to it and immediately began to lie. “Some time ago, because the Mo Family wanted to break off the engagement with my sister, I was so busy that I didn’t even have time to sleep, so I neglected you and our child. Now that something like this has happened, it’s all my fault. I’ll be by your side from now on.”

Although he gave a reason, Tan Si still had a vigilant attitude. In her opinion, Zhao Yan was not such a person.

Zhao Yan was not in a hurry to explain anything. He was busy arranging things. He even had to confirm with the servants what to eat for dinner, afraid that Tan Si would not eat well.

When he was still like this after dinner, Tan Si became even more puzzled.

Zhao Yan picked up a book and pretended to say casually, “After Nian Nian returned to the Zhao family, he was picked up by my mother. It’s difficult for me to even see him. He probably won’t remember what Dad looks like after a while. I definitely have to keep this child by my side.”

Hearing him say this, Tan Si still believed him. It was possible to be gentle for the sake of the child. No one would believe that it was because of her.

Since that was the case, Tan Si was happy to enjoy it. The heir of the Zhao family was here to take care of her personally. It was not a treatment that could be enjoyed at any time.

She had a superficial personality to begin with. After being coaxed for two days, she started to throw tantrums. She either despised the room or the smell of disinfectant. In any case, there was nothing that suited her taste.

Zhao Yan also agreed good-naturedly. After the doctor said that there was nothing serious, he returned to the villa. Then, he kept an eye on Tan Si’s work and rest every day. He even formulated a healthy life plan for her.

Sometimes, he would personally cook for her. He really looked like a gentle husband. Tan Si was a little confused. It seemed like it was not bad to live like this.

Zhao Yan was handsome and came from a noble background. If she followed him, she would obviously be able to live a rich life. Moreover, she was about to give birth to his second child. Tan Nian was also very liked by Old Madam Zhao. She might have a chance to become Young Madam.

With this thought in mind, Tan Si naturally stopped keeping an eye on Jiang An every day. Her personality became much more peaceful.

Just like that, the villa welcomed a rare period of peace. The servants felt that it was a dream. It was great that Tan Si was not angry. No one knew that these days were only temporary.

At this time, Jiang An had finally left Country F. Next was Sophie’s battlefield alone. This was all she could do. Gao Tian also began to participate in politics, wanting to fight alongside Sophie.
