Mu Yuchen’s words shocked Ah Mo into sheer disbelief. “That’s impossible. Isn’t Sis Lan…?”

“I’ve investigated Qi Qiming’s trail in the past. Qi Qiming transferred Lu Xinlan’s current house to her in secret. He’s always been generous to his mistresses. This reminds me about the termination of their collaboration which might be due to w.a.n.g Qin’s intervention.”

“How could it be? Master, do you mean Qi Qiming might be Mr. Wen?” Ah Mo’s expression darkened.

“It’s still too early to make a conclusion right now. This only tells us Qi Qiming and Lu Xinlan have an unusual relations.h.i.+p. If Mr. Wen is truly Qi Qiming, then there’s a reason for the accidents that happened to your sister-in-law before. He was picking trouble with me for Qi Feng’s sake. That’s a strong motive,” Mu Yuchen said.

“Qi Qiming… If that’s true, then everything makes sense.”

“That’s why I suppose things aren’t that simple. Let’s do this, think of a way to let both Qi Qiming and w.a.n.g Qin be aware of Lu Xinlan’s condition, and observe their reaction, also, investigate if aunt knew Qi Qiming before.”

Ah Mo was startled before nodding. “Yes, Master.” He then left after a brief reply.

It was afternoon when Xi Xiaye arrived back at Glory World. She received a call from Mu Yuchen the moment she stepped out of the car. He told Xi Xiaye to visit his office.

Xi Xiaye went back to her office to grab the doc.u.ments needed for the meeting later before heading over.

Inside Mu Yuchen’s office, lunch was already prepared. They had lunch together once she arrived.

“You seem to have a lot on your mind. Is something bothering you?” He handed her a wet towel and noticed that her emotions were fluctuating slightly.

Xi Xiaye took the towel as she looked at him solemnly. “Guess who I met at the hospital just now?”

“Who?” Mu Yuchen replied as he got her some soup.

“I met Sis Li, and she was visiting Sis Lan! Sis Lan had a heart attack last night and was sent to Hospital T. Her condition is very bad and she most probably can’t make it past the next two months. The doctor also mentioned that Sis Lan has been visiting hospitals abroad frequently in the past few years. She probably returned to City Z because she knew she doesn’t have much time left and wants to spend her final days here.” Xi Xiaye’s tone of voice sounded heavy while her eyes darkened.

“No wonder she looked unwell when I visited her the last time. She doesn’t look very energetic. How unfortunate. I thought we could find something about Aunty out from her…”

Sis Lan’s att.i.tude was pretty determined at that moment. Xi Xiaye thought about paying her a second visit, but she did not want to rush things and she knew that Mu Yuchen had people keeping an eye on her, so she did not want to ruin his plan.

However, with the current situation, she was worried that if they still did not find out anything from Sis Lan now, all those things they never knew about would vanish with her.

Xi Xiaye did not see any change in Mu Yuchen’s expression as he casually scooped food onto her plate. “I’m talking to you. Aren’t you worried?” she complained when he did not give her any sort of response at all.

“If worrying works, I don’t mind worrying about it. Well, I know about it. Have your lunch first. What did the doctor say? It looks like it’s grown…” The man seemed indifferent about this. Instead, he made Xi Xiaye sit down as he put his hand on her belly gently.

“You touched it this morning and said it didn’t seem different, but now you’re saying it looks like it’s grown? You’re contradicting yourself.” She shot him a stare while she had a twisted smile on her face. “The doctor said I’ll be able to feel him moving inside me soon.”

“Mmm, just leave all the work to us soon. Grandpa says the same as well.”

“It’s still early and I have nothing to do anyway. It’s no harm for me to walk around. I’m practically an idle person now. When I went to take some doc.u.ments from my office just now, everyone looked at me in surprise. Do all of them know that I’m pregnant?” She frowned and stared at him.

Ever since their wedding, they started going to the office together and did not avoid letting people see them. The whole company knew about their relations.h.i.+p, and since she was pregnant, people had been acting carefully around her as if she was an old lady. Some would even come to her aid when she walked by since her swollen belly was obvious.

“So what if they know? It’s a marvelous thing. Don’t you feel proud bearing my child? She’ll be Glory World’s little princess. Isn’t that something to look forward to?” He then delivered a slice of deboned fish into her mouth.

She ate it without any resistance. He had been sweeter and sweeter to her. According to Su Nan, this man had the potential to be trained, but of course, Xi Xiaye did not dare try as he might use it against her and train her back instead.

“How do you know it’s a little princess? It might be a boy. Why is it a proud thing? You speak as if you’re an ancient emperor. I’m not like those imperial concubines.” She rolled her eyes at him.

He chuckled, his face filled with warmth. “It’ll be a princess as I say. If we’re really in the past, a certain someone selected you from a thousand others. Aren’t you lucky?”

“Who’s that certain someone?”

She raised her eyebrows and looked at him. “Mr. Mu, I noticed that your tongue has been getting sweeter. Had it been in the past, I’d never have believed that you could say such flirtatious phrases. So, you like to have a few thousand girls around you, huh?”

He was not really embarra.s.sed about it. Instead, he looked at her straight in the eyes. “Don’t you like to hear those sweet words too?”

“I don’t!” She faced the other way as her face blushed furiously.

“Why is your face red then? But I’m telling the truth. I don’t care what others do. I’m barely holding up trying to serve you. I don’t have time for others. You overestimate me, Missus.”
