Bah

Zhong Qianqian stood outside the door for a long time. In the dead of winter, the temperature in Emperor District decreased all the way down to a few degrees below zero. Zhong Qianqian stood at the door with her face turning purple from the cold, and her stomach started to ache.

She was worried that something would happen to her unborn child and consequently, not being able to use the baby to threaten the Gu family. Just as she was considering staying in a hotel room temporarily, the door opened.

Zhong Qianqian was about to act weak and innocent to gain sympathy when a basin of cold water fell from the sky. She was soaked all the way from her clothes into her heart.

However, that was not the end of it.

The servants of the Gu family came out one after another and continued to splash basins after basins of water on Zhong Qianqian.

"Argh—"

Zhong Qianqian screeched angrily.

This was winter! It was winter in Emperor District!
