#PregnantFirst,LoveLater #OverflowingSweetness

When she was twelve, Wen Ling, a girl from the south, was taken in by the Fu family of Rongcheng after her family suffered a misfortune.

On her very first day in the Fu household, Wen Ling caused a disaster. She accidentally knocked Fu Huaiqian's mother's urn into the pond. At the time, Fu Huaiqian was twenty-two, tall and strikingly handsome, with a cold, stern air.

Every servant present was so frightened they fell silent. When Wen Ling met Fu Huaiqian's icy gaze, her legs gave way and she sank to the ground.

New to the Fu household, Wen Ling thought she would be thrown out. She was so scared that she twisted her hands together, her almond-shaped eyes brimming with tears, and lowered her head without daring to move.

In the end, the Fu family's young master, Fu Jingyao, who was her age, stepped in front of her and blocked Fu Huaiqian's terrifyingly cold gaze. He stalled until Old Master Fu arrived, sparing Wen Ling from punishment.

From then on, Wen Ling became Fu Jingyao's little shadow and kept her distance from Fu Huaiqian.

Wen Ling thought she would always have to walk on eggshells around the Fu family and Fu Huaiqian because of what happened. But in the second half of that year, Fu Huaiqian went abroad to expand the group's business, and stayed away for ten years.

With Fu Huaiqian gone, Wen Ling had Old Master Fu's affection and Fu Jingyao's constant protection. Spoiled to excess, she lived in comfort, and her already gentle nature grew ever more delicate and pampered.

Then Old Master Fu fell gravely ill, and a phone call from him summoned Fu Huaiqian home from abroad, where he had been managing the group's business.

Years later, when Wen Ling saw Fu Huaiqian again, his aloofness had grown as much as he had. A single glance from him was enough to leave her pale and sweating with fear.

She had also heard the Fu elders whisper about the ruthless way Fu Huaiqian ran things overseas, how mercilessly he crushed business rivals, and how cold and unfeeling he was. Her fear of him soared.

When she learned Fu Huaiqian would be staying in the country, Wen Ling stopped Fu Jingyao, who was drunk out of his mind, on the day of the family banquet.

Ever since she had come of age, Fu Jingyao had often said he wanted to marry her when he was drunk. Wen Ling had always held back and never given him an answer. Now, she desperately wanted to marry him, move into their marital home, and leave the old residence so she wouldn't have to see Fu Huaiqian every day.

Her almond-shaped eyes were moist and full of feeling as she asked, "Brother Jingyao, do you still mean it when you say you want to marry me?"

Fu Jingyao froze, then hugged her with delight in his eyes. "Of course I do!"

Wen Ling secretly rejoiced, thinking Fu Jingyao was about to start preparing for their wedding.

A week later.

Fu Jingyao's father was battling Fu Huaiqian for control of the group. Wen Ling, the obstacle standing in the way of Fu Jingyao's marriage alliance with a wealthy heiress, was drugged with an aphrodisiac by Fu Jingyao and sent to Fu Huaiqian's bedroom deep inside the old residence.

#Gorgeous, pampered sweetheart vs. stern, old-fashioned, aloof tycoon

It's a sweet romance! The colder Mr. Fu is to everyone else, the more he dotes on Wen Ling!

*Coming soon: My Boss Is the Long-Lost Father of My Child (●°u°●)

Wen Er was determined never to marry. To have a child without going through marriage, she discussed the idea with a longtime business partner with excellent genes, and he agreed.

That day, too embarrassed to face him, she turned off the hotel lights before they did it.

A month later, Wen Er got pregnant. As she posted about it on her social media, her business partner messaged her to say he'd had something come up that day and hadn't gone to the hotel. He asked which other lucky man she'd found.

Wen Er: !!

Then who was the man she'd slept with in the dark at the hotel?!!!

Though she had no idea who the child's father was, anyone who could afford a hotel suite costing tens of thousands a night couldn't be some lowlife. The outcome was the same either way, so Wen Er had the baby. Thankfully, the child was clever and exceptionally handsome.

When the child was three, Wen Er was transferred to the head office in the provincial capital next door.

On the first day after moving into her new home, Wen Er took her three-year-old son to the supermarket to buy household supplies. She ran into Pei Shiyu, the company president she had seen at the head office earlier that day. Wen Er greeted him warmly, then picked up her little boy and told him to say hello politely.

The little boy greeted him in a soft, babyish voice. "Hello, Uncle."

Pei Shiyu stared silently for a long time at the child in Wen Er's arms.

Could someone explain to him why this little dumpling looked so much like he had as a child?

On his drive home from the supermarket, the president suddenly remembered a business trip to a branch office three years ago. A woman had come into his hotel room while he was drunk, climbed into bed, and hugged him.

The president, who had kept himself pure and never touched another woman except for that night when he was drunk: ...

Wen Er settled into her new job at head office very well. There was only one thing she found strange. When payday came around again, she sat in the office staring silently at the salary deposit notification on her phone.

Could someone explain why her paycheck was another 200,000 yuan more than her agreed salary this month? _(:з"∠)_
