Chapter 207: Chapter 207 He Will Marry Du Ruoxin Later [Additional Chapter]

What if Rong Shaoze doesn’t divorce Lin Xinlan and marry Ruoxin? What then?

Mind you, men and women, they can develop feelings over time.

Besides, even if Rong Shaoze doesn’t like Lin Xinlan, wouldn’t he refrain from divorcing her for the sake of their child?

It was not easy for the Du Family to finally reach for the Rong Family’s high branch, they can’t let it slip away like this.

No, she must go and have a talk with Rong Shaoze.

She needed reassurance, or she would never let this go. Even if it meant risking offending the Rong Family, she would take Lin Xinlan to court and destroy her!

When she arrived at the villa on Yan Mountain, Rong Shaoze happened to be at home.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Mrs. Du exchanged a few pleasantries with him, then got straight to the point, "Shaoze, I heard that Lin Xinlan is pregnant, is that true?"

"Hmm." Rong Shaoze responded indifferently, his face devoid of any joy.

Mrs. Du’s heart leaped with joy. It seemed that Rong Shaoze was not too thrilled about Lin Xinlan’s pregnancy.

That was good, at least it showed he didn’t care about Lin Xinlan one bit.

"Shaoze, didn’t you once tell us that you only married Lin Xinlan because you needed a wife? You said you never regarded her as your wife and that you would marry Ruoxin once she woke up, didn’t you?"

Rong Shaoze frowned slightly; he had already guessed why Mrs. Du was here.

"Yes, I said something like that..."

"Since you’ve said that, you must keep your word. Shaoze, I’m not pressuring you, but you know how much Ruoxin loves you. Her greatest dream in life is to marry you. You love her too, but now you have a child with another woman. Do you really want to watch Ruoxin’s heart break?"

Mrs. Du spoke sorrowfully, wiped away her tears, and choked up, "However, Ruoxin has always been understanding, she probably won’t mind these things. Shaoze, can you promise me one thing? When Ruoxin wakes up, don’t do anything to hurt her, okay?"

Upstairs, Lin Xinlan’s hand tightened around the staircase handrail upon hearing these words.

Rong Shaoze nodded, "Don’t worry, I won’t hurt her."

Having received the promise she wanted, Mrs. Du’s face lit up with joy, and she felt much lighter.

"Shaoze, your word is enough for me, I feel much better now. Alright, I won’t take more of your time, I’ll be going." Mrs. Du stood up, and as she caught sight of Lin Xinlan upstairs, a smug look flashed in her eyes.

Rong Shaoze looked up and also saw Lin Xinlan.

The man’s eyes suddenly deepened with unspeakable thoughts.

Lin Xinlan’s eyes were downcast, her face expressionless. After Mrs. Du left, she slowly turned around and walked back to her room.

Rong Shaoze slowly ascended the stairs, his steps seemingly steady yet betrayed a touch of haste.

Hearing his footsteps, Lin Xinlan’s heartbeat involuntarily quickened, a flicker of panic passing through.

She quickened her pace and, just as he was about to catch up, quickly slipped into her room and slammed the door shut.

Rong Shaoze was met with a closed door, his brow furrowed slightly.

"Xinlan, open the door." He knocked on the door.

Lin Xinlan leaned against the door, feeling as though she had gone mad.

Why hide, why shut the door?

What was there to face, other than the fact that he would marry Du Ruoxin in the future and her child might call someone else mother?

There was nothing worth hiding from. By acting this way, was she not just making Rong Shaoze think she cared too
