The housekeeper stretched out his hand to stop her, but considering that Cheng Xingtao was now pregnant with a child and was on the stairs, he didn't dare to touch her at all, for fear that something would go wrong, and he couldn't afford to pay the responsibility.

Therefore, Cheng Xingtao smoothly ran to the second floor and rushed straight into Qin Lao's study.

Qiao Yue has been following behind her, protecting Cheng Xingtao's back, for fear that something will happen to her.

Qin Lao was wearing reading glasses and looking down at a book, and when Cheng Xingtao appeared at the door, he was still a little surprised, and then subconsciously looked at Cheng Xingtao's stomach.

At this time, the child in Cheng Xingtao's belly was almost four months old, but the belly was not very obvious.

Qin Lao's subconscious behavior annoyed Cheng Xingtao even more, in Qin Lao's eyes, what is she? She is not a person worthy of respect, but just a tool for pregnant children?

"Elder Qin, I think we need to talk. Cheng Xingtao was neither humble nor arrogant.

Qin Lao glanced at Cheng Xingtao indifferently, and said coldly: "Where did you get your confidence to think you can talk to me?"

After speaking, Qin Lao said to Qiao Yue and the housekeeper who were standing behind Cheng Xingtao: "Take her back!"

"Old man......"

Qiao Yue just wanted to help Cheng Xingtao speak, but was interrupted by Cheng Xingtao: "Qiao Yue, you go out first." ”

Cheng Xingtao said, and then closed the door of the study beside him.

"Elder Qin, you are an elder, I speak with honorifics, and I also hope that you can deserve this awe. Cheng Xingtao said as he walked to Qin Lao's desk.

"Qiao Yue and I belong to free love, and the child is also the crystallization of our love, I want to know, for what reason did you put me under house arrest in the courtyard?

Cheng Xingtao stood in front of the desk, straightened his waist, and questioned one after another.

Others may be afraid of Qin Lao's majesty, but Cheng Xingtao is not afraid, she has never been afraid of anyone since she was a child.

"Just because you have publicly announced that you are Fang Hui's fiancée, you have lost any qualification to be Qiao Yue's wife, this child, after you are born, it has nothing to do with you, and the Qin family will raise it. Qin Lao replied as a matter of course.

Cheng Xingtao never thought that Qin Lao would plan to do so.

For him, she is worthless at all, but the child in her belly is the blood of the Qin family, so the Qin family wants to stay.

"The child is mine, you have no right to take the child away from me! Old Qin, I tell you clearly, in the Qin family, you may have been used to calling and drinking at other people and controlling everything, but I am not from your Qin family, and I don't like others to control my life and control my choices. My children are mine, and any choice I make is my freedom, and my freedom in life is also under my control. ”

After Cheng Xingtao finished speaking, he turned around, took two steps, and then paused: "Old Qin, I'm going home now, the gate of the Qin family, when will I come, I'll come again." ”

"These things are more powerful than you can imagine. ”

Qin Lao said, and shouted loudly to the housekeeper outside the door, and the housekeeper pushed the door in response.

Qin Lao said: "Take her to the side courtyard and take strict care of her!"

"Yes, sir!" said the butler, calling several people up.

"No one is allowed to touch the peach!"

Qiao Yue protected Cheng Xingtao's body, hugged Cheng Xingtao and turned to Qin Lao: "Don't go too far! If you do this again, I will take Taotao away and never return to Qin's house." I will never joke with you, what my mother did back then, I will do too! My child and Taotao's children will not recognize you, you will die alone and grow old!"

Qiao Yue said very ruthlessly, he had never been very polite to Qin Lao, but at least he still had an elder scruple towards him.

Now, however, he can't care about that.

"Do you think you're useful like this?" Qin Lao was furious, "I was able to break up your mother and your father back then, and now I can still break you up and Cheng Xingtao!"

"If my dad hadn't died, my mom wouldn't have come back in her life, and she wouldn't have called you dad again!" Qiao Yue also yelled back.

Qin Lao was so angry that he stomped his cane and said in a fierce voice: "Your father can die, this woman can still die!" As long as I am not dead, you will obediently accept the marriage I arranged for you!"

Qiao Yue was so angry that his whole person lost control, he knocked all the things on Qin Lao's desk to the ground, and said angrily: "If you dare to touch a single hair of Taotao, I can return it to you a thousand times! I won't tell you a lie!"

slapped the desk, making every word of Qiao Yue loud.

Qin Lao was so stimulated that he gasped, and the housekeeper on the side hurried over to appease him.

Qin Lao pushed away the housekeeper, pointed at Qiao Yue with his cane, and said, "You...... You...... I want you to understand that I'm not dead yet, and it's not your turn to speak in this family!"

Qin Lao said, instructed the housekeeper to tie up Qiao Yue and Cheng Xingtao back, and demanded that Qiao Yue never go to see Cheng Xingtao again.

Cheng Xingtao was carried back to the courtyard by a group of people, and Qin Lao sent more people to guard her.

Cheng Xingtao lay on the bed, leaving tears of despair.

She never thought that a person could be arbitrary and domineering like Qin Lao, as if everyone was just an obedient pawn, and in front of him, she could only be obediently at his mercy.

Cheng Xingtao finally understood that Qiao Yue didn't want her to see Qin Lao in order to protect her.

She was wrong, she thought that Qiao Yue acquiesced to her house arrest, but it turned out that it was just that the struggle was fruitless.

However, now, even if she wanted to apologize to Qiao Yue, she couldn't convey it.

Cheng Xingtao feels that her outlook on life has been greatly subverted, she thinks that in this society, everyone is equal, and everyone has their own rights and freedoms.

But I don't know that in this world, some people take it for granted.

Cheng Xingtao was passive in the courtyard for two days, she didn't wait for herself to think of a way, and she didn't wait for Qiao Yue to get rid of Qin Lao's control to come to see her, but when Qin Fang returned.

Qin Fanghui easily entered the courtyard, saw Cheng Xingtao's low spirits, and asked with concern, "How are you doing lately?"

When Cheng Xingtao saw Qin Fanghui, his eyes lit up, and he seemed to see life, and said, "Brother Fang Hui, take me out of here quickly! I really can't stand the days of being under house arrest!"

Qin Fang shook his head back and said, "Taotao, it's useless." Qin Lao's power network, wherever I take you, you will be arrested. ”

Cheng Xingtao's hopeful eyes dimmed again, she lay on the recliner, looked at the sky, and asked, "Brother Fang Hui, can Qin Lao really cover the sky with one hand?"

Qin Fang sighed and said, "Tao Tao, when you are fighting with a person, you should not directly fight against the enemy's strengths, but should seize the opponent's weaknesses. ”

"Huh?" Cheng Xingtao quickly looked at Qin Fanghui.

Brother Fang Hui, this is the way to tell her how to deal with Qin Lao?

Seeing Cheng Xingtao looking at him with sparkling eyes, Qin Fanghui helplessly pointed to Cheng Xingtao's stomach and said, "What does Old Qin care about the most?"
