"Miss Lan, please come with me."
Mrs. Lin raised her eyebrows and looked at the young lady in front of her, who was just wearing an ordinary T-shirt and jeans. Although this lady had a delicate and lovely face, she could not compare with the women that the Young Master usually brought with him. The women surrounding the Young Master were either charming or gorgeous, and most of them were the famous stars around the world. As for the young lady in front of her, although her skin was white and flawless, and her face was as tender as a baby's, compared with those women, she was just a scrap of a thing, which was so different from those famous stars.
Mrs. Lin failed to figure out why Secretary Zhang would choose someone like her. What she could not understand more was the Young Master's thoughts. She just suddenly heard that Young Master wanted to find a woman to give birth to a son to carry on the family line. In addition to following orders in a well-behaved manner as servants, the best thing for them was not to interrupt.
Lan Xi lowered her head quietly and followed the slightly fat Mrs. Lin to the second floor. She could see so many bedrooms ont the second floor, and there was a dark corridor in the middle.
The slippers under their feet made crisp sounds as they walked on the floor. Every single step of them was like stepping on Lan Xi's heart. As they got closer to the last room, Lan Xi found that her heart was beating so fast that like it was about to explode and she even felt a little dizzy.
"Miss Lan, here are your pajamas. You may enter the Young Master's room now."
Mrs. Lin handed her a set of black skimpy lingerie. When she took it, Lan Xi's heart skipped a beat. She stroked the fascinating lingerie, and an inexplicable fear rose in her heart.
She did not say anything, and still walked toward the door obediently.
In the room, there was a man waiting for her. Once she had entered, it meant that she would begin an ambiguous relationship with that man.
What was ridiculous was that she was neither his girl friend, nor his lover. According to the agreement, she was just a surrogate mother. Yes, what she was facing now was a deal of lending her womb to a stranger.
Why would she choose such a road? Everything was only for saving Dew Dew. There was no other way to get a huge sum of money except like this. Now, she had no way to retreat and could only go forward.
Dew Dew was a child abandoned by his parents. He was left in a honeydew melon box at the gate of the orphanage, so he was named Dew Dew. Coincidentally, Lan Xi had the same experience as him, being abandoned at the orphanage right after she was born. They grew up together in the orphanage. For Lan Xi, Dew Dew was like her own brother.
In the orphanage, Lan Xi was the oldest, and now she was the only one who could work independently.
According to the doctor, Dew Dew was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and he was in urgent need of bone marrow replacement. However, the surgery fees cost 200,000 dollars. How could the orphanage afford it? No doubt, the task of raising 200,000 dollars to save Dew Dew's life fell on Lan Xi's shoulder alone.
Recently, Lan Xi had been going out at five o'clock in the morning, working three jobs a day, and running around to gather funds. However, no matter how hard she struggled, she still needed 150,000 dollars.
Just when she fell into despair, she accidentally bumped into an advertisement, and had hope again.
The strange man inside the door did not want to get married. So, he wanted to hire a young woman with a dignified appearance, high IQ, and excellent genes to give birth to his child.
The moment the contract was signed, Lan Xi was only dealing with his secretary. In the agreement, no one was allowed to know the background, family conditions, and appearance of the other party. This was to prevent that one of them would entangle with the other party after the agreement was made. Therefore, neither did he know her, nor she did know him.
Her slender hand had already reached the door handle. When she was about to enter, a voice came from behind, "Wait, have you memorized all the documents I just gave you? It's best not to work when you're pregnant, especially when there's radiation on the computer, and you are not allowed to have much contact with the microwave oven..."
Lan Xi felt that her ears were buzzing. She just quietly looked at the mouth, which had been mumbling non stop. She could not change anything because she had already signed the agreement. What was done, was done. The most important thing was that once she went in and did that thing with the man inside, she would get the down payment of 200,000 dollars, and she could save Dew Dew by that time.
"Miss Lan, are you listening?" Mrs. Lin frowned.
Lan Xi nodded. In fact, except for "Miss Lan", she did not remember anything else.
"It's good that you remember it. Be careful in the future. Don't make any mistakes." Mrs. Lin, who was so strict, said.
Lan Xi asked softly, "Mrs. Lin, I have remembered everything. Can I go in now?"
Mrs. Lin opened her mouth and mumbled a few words before turning around to leave.
Watching Mrs. Lin leave, Lan Xi lowered her eyes and her palms were gradually sweating. She was so nervous that her heart seemed to thump out of her chest. However, now that she had reached this step, she could not retreat.
Biting her lips slightly, she took a deep breath and opened the door...
