Chi Yue and Chu Shuo had just walked out of the hospital when Chu Shuo said to her, "I'm really sorry, I can't neglect a brother in trouble. It looks like we can't have dinner together this time. How about we exchange contact details and meet up another time?"
Chi Yue hesitated.
Chu Shuo: "Don't worry, I won't call you and bother you if it's not necessary."
Chi Yue opened her WeChat for him to scan, "You add me."
Chu Shuo raised an eyebrow, clearly not expecting to be added to her circle of friends. He quickly added her, then shook his phone at her, "We'll chat later."
"Okay."
Watching Chi Yue leave, Chu Shuo happily browsed through her Moments, only to find that her posts were visible for just three days.
"What are you looking at?"
Fu Rongyin's voice sounded, and Chu Shuo put away his phone, "Nothing, let's go. Today I sacrificed my future happiness to help you out, you owe me introductions to a couple of good business partners."
"You could also find a partner if you want."
"Forget about partners, I'll find one myself." Thinking of the woman at the gynecology clinic, he said, "How did she manage to trick you into coming here?"
Fu Rongyin's expression remained unchanged, "She said they were creating files for pregnant women, and the man's information they had was mine."
Chu Shuo didn't know how to describe his feelings at the moment.
Fu Rongyin's reputation for integrity was well known in their circle; anyone who knew him a bit wouldn't joke about this matter.
Fu Rongyin getting another woman pregnant was more incredible than an iron tree blooming.
However, a second later, Chu Shuo seemed to think of something, his incredulous gaze sweeping from top to bottom before returning to his face, "Have you started eating meat?"
Fu Rongyin remained calm, "Surprised?"
Chu Shuo: "..."
So he really thought someone was pregnant with his child and that's why he fell for that woman's trick at the gynecology clinic?
Chu Shuo felt like he had discovered a new continent, following closely behind Fu Rongyin, "Who is this woman? Introduce her to us brothers, let's see who this enchantress is who has tamed Master..."
"Noisy."

Chi Yue's routine was very punctual; she took time off to rest each month on this day, and today was no exception.
After taking her medication, the pain in her stomach substantially subsided, but Chi Yue was still lethargic. Her normally fair skin looked even paler due to discomfort.
Today of all days, she received a call from the caregiver saying that Bai Qing's emotional state was unstable and urged her to hurry to the hospital.
Bai Qing's emotional state had always been stable and wouldn't suddenly become uncontrollable, so Chi Yue asked for the reason, but the caregiver was evasive and wouldn't say much, prompting her to grab her bag and head out.
An hour later, she arrived at the hospital; the room was occupied by Bai Qing, the caregiver, and an unwelcome guest.
Chi Qingqing was arrogant and showed no respect towards Bai Qing.
"You know better than anyone who the real homewrecker is! Do you think having Chi Yue will cover up the fact that you are that homewrecker? Don't forget, I am a year older than Chi Yue. If you hadn't insisted on marrying my father, how would I have lived over twenty years without one? This is all thanks to you!"
"Chi Qingqing." Chi Yue called her from beside her.
Chi Qingqing instinctively turned around, the next second a loud slap landed on her face.
"Didn't your mom ever teach you to respect the elderly and love the young? You might be older than me, but my mom is at least the same age as your dad. Show some respect."
Chi Qingqing covered her face in disbelief, "You... you actually hit me?"
Chi Yue looked at her expressionlessly, "If you don't believe me, I can hit you again."
