"You, Third Brother, just have the face of a playboy, but you don't act like one at all. Bai Ru has been stubbornly pursuing you for so long. What’s so great about Bai Ru?"
When Mother Huo brought this up, she felt a surge of anger and couldn't finish her words.
After Mother Huo left, Le Yi immediately found someone to investigate the person Mother Huo had mentioned.
This hospital belonged to Le Yi, and once the surveillance footage was reviewed, Le Yi recognized that the woman was the little star Huo Jinge had brought over that day.
Le Yi called Huo Jinge and started by chatting about how she had just bought a new Chanel item and got one for Huo Jinge as well. Huo Jinge was delighted and kept saying thank you, sister.
Once Huo Jinge was in a good mood, Le Yi began to ask about her studies. She mentioned that Huo Jinge had been restless lately and had taken on an internship.
The conversation meandered until it turned to Le Yi herself.
"This senior graduated from our school. I met her at an alumni event. It seems she doesn't have a boyfriend."
Huo Jinge had no idea whether Chu Ai had any contact with Huo Jincheng.
Le Yi reminded her that Huo Jincheng had once been involved in rumors with a little star and even made it into the tabloids.
At that time, Huo Jinge was focused on her studies and hadn't paid attention to this matter at all.
Le Yi informed her that it seemed the little star back then was Shiai, and Huo Jinge fell silent on the phone for a full half minute.
"Could there be some misunderstanding?" Huo Jinge couldn't believe it. "Chu Ai never mentioned this to me at all."
Le Yi didn't want to sound too definitive. "Maybe it's just awkward for her, so she didn't feel comfortable bringing it up in front of you."
"It’s possible. What if the newspaper is just making things up? Those reporters, like flies, just love to write nonsense. Sister, don’t believe any of this!"
After hanging up the phone, Huo Jinge still had some suspicions in her heart.
The relationships in this circle are very complex. As the daughter of the Huo Family, she inevitably has to think more when someone wants to be friends with her.
Could Chu Ai be hiding too deeply?
Le Yi initially just wanted to test Huo Jinge a bit. If Huo Jinge was still the naive girl she appeared to be, she wouldn’t push further.
What she didn’t expect was that the seemingly silly and innocent girl in front of her actually had some cunning.
Huo Jinge maintained contact with Chu Ai.
She invited Chu Ai out several times, but Chu Ai always refused.
Huo Jinge found it strange; clearly, whenever she had a date before, this person would show up without fail.
Why did things suddenly change?
This change seemed to have started after she took Chu Ai to her home.
Chu Ai was being kept under watch by the Huo Family.
She thought about making as much money as she could; once the child was born, they would figure things out then.
Or perhaps find an opportunity to shift the blame for the miscarriage of this child onto Jian Yunong.
Previously, Chu Ai had read several scripts of palace intrigue dramas, and she was captivated by the schemes of the women within them. She thought she could give it a try; perhaps she could rise to power as well?
Huo Jincheng was so young; maybe he only had a fleeting interest in Jian Yunong?
To succeed, one must be willing to gamble! Isn't that right?
Chu Ai began to plot, looking for a suitable opportunity to pin this child, who had no connection to the Huo Family, onto Jian Yunong.
After much thought, she decided to target Huo Jinge.
She arranged to meet Huo Jinge and expressed her apologies, saying she had recently taken on a role that required her to sign a confidentiality agreement.
Huo Jinge was a big shot, appearing as an aloof young lady. However, in Chu Ai's eyes, as long as she flattered her and said all the right things, she could easily win her over.
Huo Jinge's little temper was quickly soothed.
After finishing a meal, Chu Ai's relationship with Huo Jinge returned to normal.
"Just a moment..."
As she hurried out of the private room, Chu Ai's expression changed, and she rushed to the restroom.
Huo Jinge followed closely behind and heard her vomiting, feeling increasingly anxious.
Isn't this the look that only a pregnant woman has?
Chu Ai came out, looking as if she was dehydrated.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing."
She looks like this and still says nothing is wrong?
Huo Jinge cautiously asked, "Are you pregnant?"
Chu Ai lowered her eyes, "Jing Ge, please don't ask."
Not asking because it's hard to say, isn't it?
Huo Jinge looked at Chu Ai's troubled expression and finally nodded.
Chu Ai got back into the car, still feeling unwell.
Huo Jinge suggested tentatively, "If you're feeling this bad... why don't we call your boyfriend to take you to the hospital?"
Chu Ai shook her head; he was very busy managing a large company with a lot on his plate.
Huo Jinge laughed, "A big company? Like my Third Brother's?"
Chu Ai's expression flashed with discomfort.
Huo Jinge thought Chu Ai was just feeling shy.
Third Brother has achievements that are almost unmatched among peers.
Huo Jinge internally underestimated, wondering if Chu Ai would engage in messy romantic relationships like others in their circle.
Huo Jinge offered to take Chu Ai home, but she refused.
"Can you really get home like this?" Huo Jinge felt something was off about Chu Ai.
"No need. I don't need you to take me."
"Alright then."
Huo Jinge didn't insist.
But she secretly took a taxi to follow Chu Ai.
Chu Ai arrived at a luxurious apartment in the city center.
From a distance, Huo Jinge observed that Chu Ai was indeed getting richer and richer.
She had initially planned to leave, but not long after, Huo Jinge saw a very familiar person walking to the entrance.
Sister Zhang!
Chu Ai stood behind the curtain, watching Huo Jinge sitting in that taxi.
She knew Huo Jinge would follow her.
This little girl really had a strong curiosity.
Sister Zhang came in, looking not too pleased, but still placed the chicken soup down, "Please don't be in such a hurry next time."
There were many matters to attend to at the Huo Family Old Residence.
Sister Zhang was impatient serving Chu Ai.
Chu Ai coldly smiled and politely said, "I'm really sorry to trouble you. The baby in my belly suddenly wanted Sister Zhang's soup. I have no choice."
What could Sister Zhang say? She could only leave silently.
How arrogant!
Sister Zhang cursed inwardly, finding her more troublesome than Bai Ru!
Who knows if the baby inside is even of Huo Family's bloodline!
Just wait for the verification later!
Huo Jinge remained calm and did not rush to stop Sister Zhang, but instead started visiting home more frequently.
Finally, on the third day, Huo Jinge stopped Sister Zhang.
"Why is that? Bai Ru doesn't come home often. Why are you always making chicken soup? Is it because Sister San is pregnant?"
Jian Yunong was certainly not.
What was outside was that woman.
Sister Zhang secretly cursed.
But unexpectedly, Huo Jinge seemed to understand, getting straight to the point, " Sister Zhang, who are you delivering soup to every day at that luxury apartment? This is all prenatal nourishment!"
Sister Zhang was startled, "I don't know what you're talking about."
"Why would you deliver soup if Chu Ai is pregnant?"
Huo Jinge pressed on aggressively, "Are you embezzling while on duty?"
This accusation was too serious, and Sister Zhang quickly denied it, "No! It was Madam who told me to do this!"
