The fact that An Yue was the daughter of Nie Xingzhi, the second-in-charge of the Nie family, was deliberately concealed by the Nie family and Zhao family just like how Duan Yarong and the others did not want outsiders to know that An Yue was pregnant.
Nie Xingzhi did not have any objections to this. For him, An Yue’s willingness to acknowledge him was the best news, even though he wanted to announce to the world that he had found his long-lost precious daughter.
However, An Yue’s current priority was to rest and recuperate properly. She was going to give birth to a big baby for the Zhao and Nie families in a few months’ time. Unnecessary matters would only bring unnecessary troubles to her. This was not what Nie Xingzhi wanted.
Anyway, she had already acknowledged him. He could die a happy man. The family could announce it whenever they wanted to. There was no rush at the moment. At that point, the other adults had the same thoughts.
Therefore, this matter was temporarily concealed and didn’t cause any waves in the noble circle of Shalnork.
However, the fact that the people outside didn’t know about this didn’t mean that some people who were more familiar with Zhao Youlin and the others also wouldn’t know. Su He and Ye Yan were among two of them.
“Such a coincidence. To think that you are actually the biological daughter of the second master of the Nie Family. This is really… unexpected!” Su He could not help but widen her eyes when she heard An Yue mention this matter. Her face was full of disbelief. After the surprise, she never seemed to
recover. Her eyes were fixed on An Yue’s face, as if she was trying to look out for flowers on her face.
An Yue’s little face was slightly red, her eyes were shining with obvious shyness and joy. “I didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence. I always thought I was an orphan, and I only relied on my sister since I was young, I didn’t expect to suddenly have not only Yichen, but also Youlin, father and mom, and
now even my biological father…”
“This is called karma. You have been so obedient, sensible, and understanding. God won’t let good people suffer for too long, so He gave everything back to you all at once.”
Su He’s words made An Yue blush slightly. While she was secretly happy, she couldn’t help but feel a little afraid. She was afraid that this sudden bout of happiness was just her own dream.
Han Yichen, who was sitting next to An Yue, was keenly aware of her strange behavior. He had secretly taught An Yue all kinds of common knowledge and precautions about pregnant women long after An Yue became pregnant. Of course An Yue, who knew that she was pregnant during this period, would
be more sensitive than other times. She might even get paranoid and have a lot of mood swings.
Therefore, the moment Han Yichen realized that An Yue’s expression was strange, he quickly held her hand.
An Yue was stunned. She turned her head and met Han Yichen’s gentle and doting eyes. Her heart calmed down. Her heart gradually calmed down because of her uneasiness and her doubt. She smiled back at Han Yichen, telling him that she was fine.
On the other side, Su He looked at the interaction between the two of them. The corner of her lips unconsciously turned into a smile, but soon, the smile froze on her face.
Ye Yan’s attention had been focused on Su He the whole time. When he saw her face suddenly turn pale, his heart instantly tensed up.
$u He had been more than seven months pregnant, and because she was pregnant with twins, her belly looked especially big compared to the others. It almost looked as big as a nine-month-old single baby.
Before this, the doctor had informed them in advance that most of the twins would be born prematurely. When the time came, the children might not even be full-term when they were born.
Because of this, Ye Yan and the Su family had been walking on pins and needles these days. The slightest movement would make them look as if they were facing a great enemy, and this time was no exception.
Upon seeing the painful expression on Su He’s face, Ye Yan instantly became nervous. He held Su He’s hand and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?”
Ye Yan’s words drew the attention of everyone present to Su He. When they realized that Su He’s face was frighteningly pale, they began to worry.
$u He held Ye Yan’s hand back. After enduring the initial pain, she forced a smile at them. “I’m fine. It’s just that the children were mischievous just now and kicked me again. I’m fine now. It doesn’t hurt much anymore.”
Logically speaking, the children were so active, which meant that they were lively and healthy. As a father, Ye Yan should be happy. However, at that moment, Ye Yan’s mind was filled with Su He’s pained expression. He was even a little angry with the two children because of this.
“Xiao Qi.”
“Huh?”
“After giving birth to these two children, we will never give birth again.”
Su He was stunned. After understanding the meaning behind Ye Yan’s words, her small face blushed slightly, she lowered her head and muttered softly, “Of course not. I’m not a sow. There are already two of them. If we give birth again, we will really have to gather a dozen.”
Su He spoke very softly, but everyone’s attention was basically focused on her. Naturally, they all heard her words and could not help but laugh.
The only person who did not laugh was Mu Tingfeng, Just like how Ye Yan did not want Su He to suffer because of the child, Mu Tingfeng also did not want Zhao Youlin to be hurt.
But the child… he especially wanted a child that belonged only to him and Zhao Youlin, and Zhao Youlin had already promised to give birth to another child for him…
To have or not to have a child… Mu Tingfeng’s heart wavered for the first time.
Zhao Youlin didn’t know that Mu Tingfeng’s heart had wavered because of Ye Yan’s words, and that he was even beginning to struggle.
Not long after An Yue let Nie Yunfan stay with her, the investigation that she had been waiting for finally had news.
1
That day, Zhao Youlin happened to bump into Zhao Yifei in the hospital. For reasons unknown, Sun Fengzi had stubbornly refused to let Zhao Shunchang give Zhao Yifei a blood transfusion. Zhao Youlin felt that something was wrong and had asked Ye Yan to help take a sample of Zhao Yifei’s blood.
Unexpectedly, just because of this, an amazing thing was discovered. Zhao Yifei… was not the child of their Zhao family at all!
During this period of time, Zhao Youlin had been asking people to investigate who Sun Fengzi and Zhao Yifei were. However, because this had happened so long ago, they could not find any clues even after investigating for a long time.
This time, someone finally found some information. How could Zhao Youlin not be happy? She immediately arranged for the people in charge of the investigation to come directly to her office.
However, Zhao Youlin didn’t expect that other than the people she had sent out in the beginning, an old acquaintance she did not want to see stood among them.
“Ms, Zhao, we meet again.” The man smiled and his expression was as gentle and polite as it had been a year ago.
Zhao Youlin felt a chill down her spine.. Damn it, why is this guy here?!
