Sweet Love 1V1: Spoiled by The Executive - Chapter 1146

Chapter 1146: In Search of the Heir（3）

Cheng Chen didn’t expect Lina to speak so bluntly to him. After all, he was Ling Tianya’s business partner. Strictly speaking, that also meant that he was on Ruan Zeyan’s side. Wasn’t Lina afraid that if she informed him of her ambitions, he would turn around and tell Ling Tianya or Ruan Zeyan?

When she saw the doubt in Cheng Chen’s expression, Lina explained, “I’m not worried about you telling Ruan Zeyan or his wife of my goals. They already know the reason I returned. In fact, I already had the first contest with Ruan Zeyan over dinner. In the end, I lost. Not only did I lose to Ruan Zeyan, I also lost to his wife.”

“Tianya?”

“Yes, that’s right. That girl is very interesting. Her brain works very well, and she has rare talent. I like her a lot,” Lina said in praise. Then she sighed regretfully, “It’s a pity that a girl that I like so much is Ruan Zeyan’s wife. You know me. If I can’t get something, I normally destroy it.”

“So you want to destroy Ling Tianya?” Cheng Chen’s expression suddenly became guarded, and a look of warning appeared in his eyes.

Lina broke into laughter. “I’m just saying. This is Asia, which is Ruan Zeyan’s territory. I don’t think that I have the ability to destroy his wife.”

When he heard Lina’s words, Cheng Chen’s expression cleared a little.

“Do you care about Ling Tianya a lot?” Lina asked.

Cheng Chen couldn’t deny it. “She is my treasured friend and my benefactor. If it wasn’t for her, then Zhiya Entertainment probably wouldn’t exist.”

Lina nodded and then said, “Let’s get back to the topic. The second reason I came is related to you.” Lina adjusted her seat and then seriously said, “I have returned to find our daughter. I need an heir to my business.”

“What did you say!” Cheng Chen shot out of his chair, all semblance of calm forgotten. He looked at Lina in shock. “Our child? Didn’t you have an abortion?”

“No.” Lina looked steadily into Cheng Chen’s eyes. “At that time, I did go to the hospital. I even went into the surgery room. However, at the last moment, I changed my mind. I lied to my parents and said that I had already aborted the child, but in reality, I was still carrying her. I couldn’t bear to end the small life. I wanted to give birth to her and raise her. Even if I was denounced by the entire world, even if I was going to be a single mother for the rest of my life, I still wanted to raise her.”

When Lina spoke, there was determination in her eyes. It was the same determination she had felt back then. She had already gone to another city with her parents, and no one there knew them. Her parents wanted her to start a new life. However, Lina had gone against her parents’ wishes and secretly kept the child.

“At that time, I wanted to raise her by myself. I didn’t think about seeking you out, because I had realized that I wasn’t upset at all when I left you. That proved that in reality, I didn’t love you. But that wouldn’t affect my love for the child.” When Lina spoke, she had a soft expression, one that had never crossed her face before. However, gradually, the warmth disappeared and she lowered her eyes. “Afterwards, my stomach gradually grew bigger. I ate a lot, hoping that my parents would attribute my protruding stomach to the fact that I was growing fatter.”

“However, at eight months, I could no longer hide it. I wore the loosest clothes that I had, but my mother still found out. My parents were very angry, and they struck me as if they’d gone insane. They shoved me hard, and I passed out. At the time, my stomach hurt a lot. It was too painful for me to remain conscious. When I woke up, I no longer had the child. My mother personally told me that the child was dead. It was a girl…”
