Chapter 829 -829: Cao Shiyu Wants to Steal Her Child…
“If you want to give birth, just do it. We already know Cao Shiyu’s real identity, so what kind of uproar could she possibly cause under our watch?” Ye Qilan touched Su Hongxing’s belly, thinking of Little Pudding, he couldn’t help but laugh, “Little Pudding was saying last time that she didn’t want any brothers or sisters, and now look, there’s an extra one in your belly, she’s going to be upset when she finds out.”
Su Hongxing chuckled, “Yeah, that kid is so possessive…”
“Just like me,” Ye Qilan added in.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Ye Qilan took Su Hongxing’s hand, “I will do everything in my power to protect you all. Unless I die, I would never let Cao Shiyu steal our child!”
Su Hongxing’s heartbeat missed half a beat, she looked at Ye Qilan startledly, feeling inexplicably uneasy, “Don’t speak of such inauspicious things, this talk of dying and all.”
How could a troublemaker like Ye Qilan possibly be done in so easily?
But when Ye Qilan mentioned dying, she couldn’t help but feel anxious, as if indeed something bad might happen.
Ye Qilan laughed again, “You’re not superstitious, are you? Rest assured, with you and Little Pudding, and our son in this world, how could I bear to die…”
“I told you, stop bringing up that word!” Su Hongxing said unhappily, frowning.
Each time he mentioned “death,” her heart grew even more anxious.
“All right, all right, I won’t say it again,” Ye Qilan said with a serious expression, “You just said that Cao Shiyu might have known about your pregnancy before I did?”
“Yes, last time I went to the drugstore and bought a pregnancy test. If Liu Yuan knew I stopped at the drugstore and bought a pregnancy test at that time, then he and Cao Shiyu probably could have guessed I was pregnant. I hadn’t even had the chance to tell you when the news broke out that Cao Shiyu went to the gynecology and obstetrics clinic. Isn’t that too much of a coincidence?”
The more Su Hongxing spoke, the more certain she became that Cao Shiyu was after the child in her womb.
If Cao Shiyu really stole her child, then she would swap her own child with Su Hongxing’s—could it be that the child in Cao Shiyu’s womb was actually Xiao Ji’s?!
Thinking this, her heart pounded in terror, and she shared her guesses with Ye Qilan.
Ye Qilan pondered, “There’s a high possibility of that. If the father of her child is Xiao Ji, and once you both give birth, they could pull off a baby swap and create misunderstandings between us. The more I think about it, the more chilling it is to admit that Cao Shiyu’s plan is quite sinister.”
The series of plans by Liu Yuan and Cao Shiyu seemed flawless, except for the one mistake they made—both he and Su Hongxing firmly believed they had spent that night together.
And that was exactly why Cao Shiyu’s plan wasn’t running smoothly, facing setbacks again and again.
Perhaps this was also the result that neither Liu Yuan nor Cao Shiyu had anticipated?
Not long after Ye Qilan and Su Hongxing returned to the company, Cao Shiyu also came back to the office.
Su Hongxing took the initiative to call Cao Shiyu into her office, “Qingyin, I have some happy news to share. Just now Ye Qilan and I went to the hospital for a pregnancy check, and the doctor told me I’m going to be a mom.”
She carefully observed Cao Shiyu’s expression and noticed that Cao Shiyu’s surprised look was quite exaggerated. As she had suspected, Cao Shiyu had known about her pregnancy long ago.
Cao Shiyu was sneering inside, yet she had to put on an overjoyed facade, “Sister, congratulations. The baby in your belly, it must be a boy.”
She had known that Su Hongxing was pregnant for a while, after all, Liu Yuan had told her that Su Hongxing had bought a pregnancy test from the drugstore.
