"Dr. Le, it can't be as simple as misdiagnosis, right?"
Just now, Le Yi came in without even a basic examination, and immediately claimed there was a mistake. It's no wonder there are no ghosts!
Jian Yunong's nerves couldn't be so dull that she wouldn't notice something like this.
Le Yi's round eyes lowered, her gaze falling on the bracelet on her wrist. She casually fiddled with it for a moment before speaking coldly, "You are indeed not pregnant."
This matter could easily be checked at any hospital, but because Le Yi is from the Huo Family, no one dared to question her authority.
Jian Yunong slumped softly onto the sofa.
Her eyelashes trembled violently.
Le Yi couldn't see the expression on her lowered face, but Jian Yunong's tightly clenched fists resting on her knees betrayed the turmoil within her.
"I know you canceled your engagement to marry Bai Ru, and I also know Yi Nansheng has been looking for you."
Jian Yunong suddenly looked up at her, "You know all of this?"
"I know you are Yi Nansheng's girlfriend, but at that time, when Yi Nansheng betrayed you, I thought his feelings for you were shallow and that he didn't care about you. However, since the beginning of this year, he has been frequently seeking you out, especially during the time after your mother passed away."
Le Yi spoke all of this with a blank expression, which was terrifying in Jian Yunong's eyes. This woman knew everything but said nothing. Jian Yunong felt like a fool being toyed with in her hands.
"I'm also surprised by what happened between you and my brother. When Third Brother had the car accident and underwent surgery, I decided to change your report results. I'm sorry."
Jian Yunong didn't know whether to laugh or cry; the mastermind behind this marriage was actually Le Yi.
"Are you afraid I will get back together with Yi Nansheng?"
Le Yi didn't want to answer this question.
"I've given you hints. Marrying my Third Brother won't be a loss for you."
"Hints?"
"That time in the back garden of the old house, you heard my conversation with someone else, right?"
"…"
Le Yi was too terrifying.
"I have no intention of harming you." Le Yi smiled bitterly, and Jian Yunong looked at her as if she were a venomous woman.
"Look, if you marry my Third Brother, what can Yi Nansheng do to you?"
"Don't make it sound so nice. In the end, you're still doing it for yourself."
Jian Yunong held her stomach, feeling resentful deep down for being manipulated like this.
Le Yi's gaze suddenly turned sharp. "Yes! I'm also doing it for myself! Yi Nansheng married me, so why can't he forget about you!? Clearly, I was the one who accompanied him during his hardest years! When he was drunk and throwing up in the toilet, I was the one who wiped him down! I brought him nourishing soup when he was working late at night! When he was hospitalized, I was the one who stayed by his side day and night! I've never served my parents in such a lowly manner! Yet he still can't forget you! What have you done? You merely grew up with him during the years I wasn't around, that's all! You haven't made any significant impact on his life! I refuse to let go! I'm not happy, and I don't want him to be with you again! Why should it be like that?"
Every word was filled with her blood and tears.
She had held these words in for a long time but never had the chance to say them.
Why wouldn't Yi Nansheng turn around and look at her?
She had also been by his side for so many years, during the most beautiful times of their lives.
Jian Yunong was left speechless.
Le Yi had a reluctant expression, looking quite pitiful.
"I have no regrets," Le Yi asked Jian Yunong, "Do you regret it?"
Jian Yunong surprisingly didn't know how to respond.
"With me around, you don't have to worry about anything. You just need to hurry up and have a child with Third Brother."
Le Yi stood up, "You have no choice. Bai Ru is still the daughter of the Bai Family. The embarrassment caused to the Huo Family is so severe; think about yourself or think about your aunt."
Jian Yunong sat on the sofa for a long time, finally revealing a miserable smile.
She never expected that the day would come when someone warned her that she must get married.
What should she do at this moment?
She typed a question on her phone: If someone forces me to marry, and the other party is from a wealthy family I can't afford to offend, what should I do?
Netizen: Is the other party handsome? As long as he is good-looking, everything can be forgiven.
Netizen Focused on Being Single for Ten Thousand Years: I want to go back to ancient times; at least back then, parents arranged marriages and I could still get married...
Netizen 2333: Damn, the Qing Dynasty has long fallen! Let me handle such insane matters!
What is all this nonsense!
Jian Yunong closed her phone, and her earlier bad mood seemed not so bad anymore.
At that moment, Mist Shenshen came in with a box of Ferrero.
Eating sweets during menstruation helps alleviate cramps, at least it can improve Jian Yunong's mood a little at this moment.
"Your husband gave this to you."
Mist Shenshen peeled one for her and fed it to her mouth, speaking with envy, "This Huo Jincheng is not bad. He has top-notch looks, family background, and abilities, and he is quite considerate towards girls. It seems his ex-girlfriend trained him well."
As soon as the words "ex-girlfriend" came out, Mist Shenshen immediately covered her mouth, "Puh puh puh, why bring up such terrible things on a joyous day! Nong Nong, don't take those things reported yesterday to heart. I've seen and analyzed those photos; if they had any pictures of Huo Jincheng and Bai Ru together, they would have released them long ago. Instead, they only released photos of the two entering a restaurant one after the other, which is meaningless. So it's mostly just hype."
"Hype?" Jian Yunong asked in confusion.
"Don't you know that Bai Ru offended the Dubai Prince while abroad? According to reliable gossip, she suddenly canceled her wedding plans. The other party is royal! Although it was said that Bai Ru returned to the country on the surface, she won't have any opportunities to develop abroad anymore; she has no choice but to return home. She became so famous partly because of her own abilities, but a very important reason is that she had a boyfriend like Huo Jincheng. Oh no, I mean an Ex-Boyfriend. Who wouldn't give a little face to Young Master Huo?"
"Then now that she has been ordered to be banned by Huo Jincheng's mother, doesn't that mean she won't have any way out in the future?" Jian Yunong suddenly felt a bit sympathetic towards Bai Ru, "Why did Bai Ru suddenly regret the marriage?"
"Who knows?"
Mist Shenshen shrugged, "Maybe she enjoys the feeling of rejecting men."
It was almost time. Mist Shenshen checked Jian Yunong's makeup one last time, "My Nong Nong will be more beautiful than anyone else tonight."
"Mm."
A shy smile blossomed on Jian Yunong's bright face, but inside she felt a bit bitter.
The numbers in the elevator continued to jump rhythmically.
"Aunt," Jian Yunong instinctively tightened her grip on Mist Shenshen's arm, "If—I'm saying if—I don't want to get married anymore, is that okay?"
Little Fool became nervous.
Mist Shenshen lightly patted her hand, "It's fine if you don't want to get married. The Huo Family will just kick us out of Nancheng and make our lives miserable."
Jian Yunong's pupils constricted.
Although Mist Shenshen's tone was relaxed and teasing, she was actually speaking the truth.
Jian Yunong forced a smile, "Aunt, you really... say such outrageous truths."
Huo Jincheng was already waiting at the door, dressed in a finely tailored tailcoat, standing out among the other men. He spotted Jian Yunong first and revealed a stunning smile.
He walked up to Jian Yunong and his gaze lingered on her face.
"I almost didn't recognize you."
Jian Yunong lowered her head and remained silent.
"Here, I'll leave her with you first." Mist Shenshen wisely chose not to be a third wheel at that moment.
"You look beautiful today."
Huo Jincheng's voice was deep, crisp and clear like jade striking against each other.
Jian Yunong felt a bit uncomfortable and cleared her throat, "You look handsome today too."
The conversation felt somewhat awkward.
Huo Jincheng chuckled softly and extended his hand toward Jian Yunong, "Let's go. Everyone is waiting for us."
His hand was long and well-defined, very attractive.
"Huo Jincheng... I have something to tell you."
"Let's talk about it after the wedding."
She hesitated to reach out, and Huo Jincheng took the initiative to hold her hand tightly in his palm.
"No."
The guilt inside Jian Yunong was almost overwhelming; that secret weighed heavily on her heart, making it impossible for her to move forward. This felt like a deception! She believed Huo Jincheng needed to know about this!
"Huo Jincheng, you need to know this."
She paused, unwilling to leave.
Just then, the door to the banquet hall opened, and Yi Nansheng walked out, holding a cigarette. He was about to light it when he noticed the tense standoff between the two, especially Jian Yunong's tearful expression, prompting him to approach.
"What's going on?"
"It's none of your business!"
Huo Jincheng coldly lifted his lips, his expression instantly turning fierce. He tightened his grip, pulling Jian Yunong into his embrace, asserting his dominance.
"Let go!"
Yi Nansheng saw Jian Yunong struggling; it was clear she was unwilling!
Instead, Huo Jincheng pulled Jian Yunong even closer. Meeting Yi Nansheng's furious gaze, he coldly replied, "What right do you have to order me around?"
The atmosphere grew increasingly tense.
"Yi Nansheng, it's none of your business. This is between him and me." Jian Yunong did not want to involve him. It was clearly irrational to confront Huo Jincheng.
Yi Nansheng clenched his hands into fists at his sides.
He had no right to interfere in her matters.
She was already Huo Jincheng's wife.
Huo Jincheng tightened his grip, pulling Jian Yunong forward.
As they pushed open the grand doors of the banquet hall, a dazzling atmosphere enveloped them. The sparkling light reflected off the White Rose carpet, casting everything in a dreamy glow.
Although it was a small wedding, the largest banquet hall at Hilton was filled to capacity.
Jian Yunong scanned the room and recognized several familiar faces that she usually only saw on television.
Almost half of the prominent figures from the political and business circles were present; this was a grand event in high society.
Now, all eyes were on the newlyweds.
There was no turning back now.
