ing the food more delicious.Then mix the ground ingredients together, and you have your barbecue sauce. When grilling, add a little of this seasoning in addition to salt, and it will make the barbecue...Zhang Fenglin heard Yun Siyu's words, a flash of ferocity crossed his eyes, and he looked at the woman in front of him with a deep gaze, coldly saying:

"You think you can threaten me with a child Zhang family's heir must be the child born to Duan Lianyi, are you sure you're carrying Tao'er's child!"

Facing Zhang Fenglin's powerful aura, Yun Siyu bit her lip and took a deep breath before saying:

"I knew Xuetao before he got engaged to the Duan family, and we were in love. He made a compromise for his family, and I made one for his future."

After leaving NN City, I never thought I would meet Xue Tao again. But fate is on our side, as we met on the battlefield, and I saved him once more.

This time Xue Tao finally confessed to me and kept me by his side. I am not a parasite, I have my own career. He fights at the front, and I heal the wounded behind. We support each other and move forward together.

When Ms. Duan hid abroad for safety, I accompanied Xuete all the way. Our relationship has long since been beyond words.

Now that I have his child, he treats me better. He promised to take care of the betrothal and marry me openly and honestly.

Zhang Fenglin listened to Yun Siyu's words, didn't say anything, just waved his hand, and had her taken away.

"Big Handsome, if you kill me and the child in my belly, Xuete will hate you for life because you killed his son!"

Yun Siyu didn't know Zhang Fenglin's intentions. In the end, she uttered another harsh word. Even if she died, she wouldn't let Zhang Fenglin have a good time. She was certain that as long as Zhang Xietou knew she died while pregnant, he would definitely turn against his father.

"Shut up! You better stay quiet, or I don't mind making you disappear."

Zhang Feng said coldly.

Yunshi Yu, hearing this, felt relieved instead. This meant Zhang Dashuai wouldn't kill her. For his son, he had compromised! So she wisely kept silent too.

After everyone had left, Zhang Fenglin only then rubbed his brow and said to the steward beside him:

"

This woman's existence must absolutely not be known to the Duan family!

"

Yes, Sir!

"Have someone take her to see a doctor to confirm if she's really pregnant."

"Good."

Also, tell Tao'er to rest assured and finish the battlefield cleanup. We'll take care of this woman.

"Yes."

Just as the steward had agreed, the phone in the mansion rang.

After the door was opened, Zhang Xuetao's voice came from inside:

"I am Xuetao, is my father here"

The housekeeper glanced at Zhang Fenglin and immediately said:

The general's spirits aren't well, he is resting. If young master has something to say, please tell me and I will relay it to the general.

"The clouds and rain have been taken by you."

"Rest assured, young master. Miss Yun is fine. She's just been brought back to stay for a while. You can see her once things are settled on your end."

The Headmaster is doing this for your own good, Miss Duan will be back soon. The other day, because of the gossip caused by the young master, Duan Zongqing even called the Headmaster. The Headmaster hopes that you will prioritize the engagement above all else.

"I know!"

Zhang Xuetao hung up the phone, but his eyes burned with anger. It was that engagement again. Because of it, Siyu had suffered so much. He had to get revenge.

At this point, Zhang Xuetao had forgotten that he was once willing to hold the engagement ceremony as scheduled even with his gunshot wounds still fresh. Now that he held power in his hands, he started to resent the constraints of marriage, truly a "scumbag" wouldn't even begin to describe him.

Many of the movements within Zhang's residence were soon relayed back to General Duan's mansion. Xia Xin, as she read aloud to Duan Zongqing, shook her head and said:

This Zhang family is full of bad people. They cling to the old master's power while refusing to give up their future grandchildren, truly acting both as a current beneficiary and a future heir!

Master, what are your plans

"No need to rush, let them have a few days of peace first. When Ripples comes back, we'll make plans then. Everything depends on what Ripples wants."

Duan Zongqing took a sip of tea lightly and said slowly.

Half a month later, the Duan family gathered at the port of NN city to welcome their young mistress's return.

When ripples, dressed in a white knight's armor and riding boots, stepped off the ship with her guards, Duan Zongqing felt her eyes light up. He felt that his daughter had grown taller, and her calm and composed demeanor emanated from within.

"Father, daughter is back!"

Ripple got off the boat, ran two steps, and came to Duan Zongqing's side, clinging to his arm coquettishly.

"Haha! Welcome back to my precious daughter. I see you've grown taller, but you've also lost some weight."

Duanzongqing looked closely at his daughter and said.

"No way! I've gained weight!"

"Master, it's best to return home first! The young mistress is also tired from the boat ride!"

The butler chuckled and said.

"Yeah, go home first! Chunxiao and Xiashin have prepared a big table of your favorite dishes at home, just waiting for you!"

"Sounds good! As a student studying abroad, what I miss most is the home-cooked food."

Liàn Yī held onto Duan Zōngqīng's arm and got into the car first, leaving the port.

The guards who returned with the ripples, carrying large and small packages, boarded several other vehicles. However, this time Qiu Chan and Dong Qing did not return to the country together. The two of them had other tasks and had to temporarily remain in Country Y.

After getting in the car, Lian Yi finally asked:

"Zhang Xuedao, don't you know I'm coming back"

He knows, but he doesn't know the specific time. I thought you wouldn't want to see him as soon as you disembark, so I didn't tell him. However, if he's determined, he can find out that you are waiting at home.

"Only my father truly knows me! I didn't want to see that scumbag's face as soon as I got off the boat, it ruined my good mood."

Ripple smiled and said.

After returning home, Lianyi was watched for a long time by Chunxiao and Xiashin. Everyone had a reunion dinner and then slept soundly all night. Only then did Lianyi go to her father's study.

"Father, are you busy"

"Ripple, come in!"

How was your sleep last night

"Nothing beats sleeping in your own bed."

"These two days there's nothing going on, just take a good rest at home."

"Okay."

"You came to me early this morning, is there something the matter"

"Of course, I pulled some strings this time and brought back a batch of the most advanced weapons. I had Duan Cheng keep an eye on them as they were transported back to the storage room in my house. Did you go take a look"

I know about this. Duan Cheng is your bodyguard, I thought he brought back some of your everyday items from abroad.

Duan Zongqing was somewhat surprised.

"It seems Duan Cheng is still reliable; he hasn't exposed himself in front of you."

R ripples pursed her lips and smiled.

"Come, let's see the treasure you bought."

Duanzongqing was just about to get up when the phone on the table rang. He picked it up, and Changfenglin's voice came from the other end:

"Zongqing! Lianyi is back, and you didn't even tell me Xuetao and I only found out from someone else!"

"Maple Grove, you're accusing me wrongly! I had no idea Ripple came back yesterday. She said she wanted to surprise me, and if it weren't for Autumn Cicada sending a telegram ahead of time, I wouldn't have even known my own daughter was back."

"So that's how it is! I've already told Xuetao to put aside his work, and he'll be in NN city in a few days. The two of them have been apart for four years, always keeping in touch through letters isn't enough either. They should reconnect."il the broth turned milky white before feeding it to MENG."Where did you guys find this orc"Only after finishing her work did Lianyi have the time to ask."The messenger, it was Tuanzi who found him fi...
