However, after the anger passed, a massive confusion shrouded her.
Why was Second Brother asking for leave on behalf of Second Sister-in-law so early in the morning?
Could it be, he was with Second Sister-in-law last night?
That’s not right, wasn’t he supposed to be at the hospital with Lan Yuyi?
Lan Yuyi fainted last night. Even if it was all an act, she would have to play the part to the fullest. It’s impossible that she’d be discharged so quickly.
Lan Yuyi was indeed still in the hospital at this moment.
Her fainting episode last night was fake, but the shame of being mocked by friends and relatives was real. She was absolutely humiliated, and started having contractions due to excessive crying.
The baby was now her biggest support. Fearing something might happen to the child, she wanted to stay at the hospital for a few more days.
She assumed that Lu Lingche would come back to explain and apologize to her.
But she had waited all night, and he never showed up at the hospital!
She had secretly checked: Lu Lingche hadn’t come home last night.
So where did he go?
A potential answer was immediately apparent!
Her hand, hidden inside the quilt, clenched into a fist, Qiao Yin!
“AuntYao.”
Lan Yuyi said in despair: “Does Lingche not want me and the baby anymore? How come he hasn’t come to see me yet? Is my life still meaningful? Even if the baby is born, he probably won’t spare us a glance, I might as well…”
“Nonsense!”
Madam Lu immediately covered her mouth, preventing her from saying anything more.
She had stayed by Lan Yuyi’s side all night until the doctor confirmed that the baby was fine. Only then did she relax.
Her face was filled with exhaustion: “Lingche is just too busy with work. The Corporation has been especially hectic these past couple of days. It seems like there are issues with a certain project. He surely cares about you and the baby. He’s always been cold and terse; he was like this with me too, you’ve seen it, haven’t you? You’ll get used to it, don’t overthink it.”
Lan Yuyi bowed her head, crying silently.
Madam Lu’s words failed to comfort her.
She was convinced that Lu Lingche was with Qiao Yin last night. She was seething with jealousy, wishing she could chain Lu Lingche to her side, making him forget about Qiao Yin for good.
Wen Bilan’s face was also grim: “Madam Lu, we understand Lingche is busy with work.”
“However, since he hasn’t divorced Qiao Yin, why is the Lu family telling us to hold a wedding? This is rather childish, isn’t it a bit too much?”
“Our Yuyi has become a laughingstock because of this. The internet is full of rumors about her being a mistress, but you know the truth better than anyone.”
“Our Yuyi was a pure and innocent girl, she was with Sheng Qing from your Lu family, she has nothing to do with Lu Lingche. But now she is being slandered like this, as a mother, I can’t help but feel heartbroken.”
Madam Lu was left somewhat speechless by what she said.
Although she was cursing Lu Lingche in her heart, she forced a smile at them: “This is not entirely Lingche’s fault. If anyone’s to blame, it’s Qiao Yin, that little slut! My son has wanted to divorce her for a long time, but she kept harassing Lingche and refused to get a divorce. She even tried to extort one billion in alimony from the Lu family, she’s utterly wicked.”
Wen Bilan sighed: “Poor Lingche, being entangled with such a shameless woman. Madam Lu, you should talk to him seriously, tell him to get the divorce soon. Dragging it out like this isn’t good for anyone, don’t you think?”
“Yes, I’m going to call him over right now. He needs to explain this to us and spend some time with Yuyi.”
Having said that, Madam Lu left the ward to call Lu Lingche.
Only Wen Bilan and her daughter, Lan Yuyi, remained in the ward.
“Mom, I can’t stand this humiliation. My wedding and my reputation have been ruined by Qiao Yin! I want her dead! The more miserable, the better!”
“Calm down. Killing her isn’t as simple as you think. If you’re not careful, you could get yourself involved.”
Wen Bilan’s voice was filled with bitterness: “The best way is to destroy her as well!”
