Reborn in the 80s, Get Rich by Eating Melons

Chapter 525: Chapter 525, Yaoyao, are you pregnant?

Tong Yao was shocked, "Did Shi Yan and Lin Man offend someone?"

"No," Wen Yun shook her head, "It seems they were importing goods from abroad and got robbed. The police are investigating it."

Tong Yaohui picked up the newspaper from the table and handed it to Tong Yao, "The details are written here. The funeral for Lin Man and Shi Yan is tomorrow."

Tong Yao glanced at the newspaper, her heart pounding. Hu Haiyun felt a chill upon hearing the news, thankful she hadn’t been on that train, or she might have been seriously injured.

During the robbery, only Lin Man and Shi Yan died. The others in the same compartment only lost their property and were not injured.

While it seemed like a normal train robbery, Tong Yao felt it was unusual, like it had been specifically targeted at Lin Man and Shi Yan. She suddenly remembered what Zhao Wenkai had said.

Could this incident be related to Zhao Wenkai?

With that thought, Tong Yao quickly read through all the newspapers she had bought and quickly found news about Zhao Wenkai. He had been arrested three days ago in connection with multiple murder cases. The police were investigating, and hadn’t released many details.

Tong Yao put down the newspaper and said, "Dad, why don’t you go pay their respects? I’ll go check if the house in the suburbs is renovated."

Tong Yaohui responded, "The house in the suburbs has been renovated and paid for. The keys are in the TV cabinet drawer. I’ve had someone clean it. Your mother and I are busy these days. You guys just need to purchase some furniture and daily essentials, then you can move in."

Wen Yun added, "Yes, staying in a hotel is not safe or hygienic. I know it’s not ideal but try to bear with it for tonight. You can move into the new house tomorrow."

Guo Jinnian and Hu Haiyun immediately expressed their gratitude. They hadn’t expected Tong Yao’s parents to be so welcoming, treating them kindly on their first meeting.

Tong Yao spoke in her soft voice, "Mom, Dad, you don’t have to worry about us. Weren’t you planning on going to Aunt’s house just now? Go ahead! We’ll rest a bit."

She had wanted to tell them about her pregnancy, but now decided to wait until after Lin Man’s funeral.

Wen Yun nodded, but Tong Yaohui sighed and softly suggested, "Yaoyao, I know you and Manman didn’t get along, but since she’s gone, there’s no need to bear any grudges. Why don’t you go too? Just show your face."

Of course, if Tong Yao did not want to go, Tong Yaohui would not insist, as he always respected his daughter’s decisions.

As Tong Yao was hesitating, straightforward Guo Jinnian said, "Mr. Tong, Yaoyao is pregnant. In my opinion, it would be better not to bring her. She and Lin Man were at odds and attending might affect her mood."

Upon hearing Guo Jinnian’s remark, Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun were taken aback. They looked incredulously first at Guo Jinnian and then at Tong Yao, "Pregnant?"

Wen Yun repeated, "Yaoyao, are you pregnant?"

Tong Yao saw her parents’ expressions and, with a wry smile, nodded, "Mom, I just found out a few days ago. I am indeed pregnant. I must have conceived when Ahchen came back last time. It’s still early, so it’s not visible."

Wen Yun’s eyes reddened with joy, she stuttered excitedly, "That’s great, wonderful indeed. Our family is finally going to welcome a new member."

Upon hearing that his daughter was indeed pregnant, Tong Yaohui was so thrilled he didn’t even know how to react. Wen Yun playfully hit him on the shoulder, "Our daughter is pregnant and you are still frowning?"

Tong Yaohui jolted back to reality, his expression instantly changing from solemn to delighted. He laughed happily, "If Ahchen knew, he would be so happy. Yaoyao, you need to rest at home now. Don’t run around too much. Your mother and I will manage the breeding farm. Actually, only I’ll go. I’ll let your mother stay in Kyoto to care for you."

Wen Yun nodded, "Yes, you’re pregnant now, you can’t overwork. You have to eat well and keep up your nutrition."

Tong Yao felt extremely fortunate seeing how much everyone cared about her. Smiling, she said, "Mom, you take care of Dad over there. It’s okay, I have Jinnian and the others here. You can come back when I’m about to give birth. I’m worried about Dad being alone at the breeding farm, and constant worrying isn’t good for my pregnancy."

Hearing Tong Yao say this, Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun didn’t insist, but they encouraged Tong Yao to hire a nanny. To ease their worries, Tong Yao reluctantly agreed.

Upon learning of Tong Yao’s pregnancy, Tong Yaohui naturally wouldn’t ask her to attend Lin Man’s funeral. He even asked Wen Yun to stay with Tong Yao instead of attending the funeral. He advised, "Stay at home with Yaoyao in the next few days and make some of her favorite dishes."

"Okay."

Wen Yun nodded in agreement.

With this turn of events, the couple quickly moved on from Lin Man’s death. Tong Yaohui stayed at the house for half an hour before heading to Aunt Tong Xiangqiao’s house alone.

That evening, Wen Yun prepared a feast. Having traveled the entire day in the train, everyone was starving and praised Wen Yun’s culinary skills, which made her extremely pleased. She smiled the entire evening.

Not many people live in the household. After all these years, it was seldom so lively. All the guests were Tong Yao’s good friends, and Wen Yun treated them like her own children.

After dinner, Wen Yun also arranged accommodations for them at a hotel. As the host, she thought it was her responsibility to make arrangements for their stay. When she dropped them off at the hotel, she apologetically mentioned, "After purchasing furniture and daily essentials for the house, you should be able to move in tomorrow. I’m sorry for the inconvenience tonight."

"Aunt Wen, we’re not inconvenienced at all. Even my own mother never treated me this well." Guo Jinnian’s sweet talk made Wen Yun extremely happy.

Hu Haiyun had never experienced such familial warmth before. When she looked at Wen Yun, her eyes were full of admiration. Familiar with Wen Yun, Hongwei didn’t express many courteous words.

After making sure everyone was settled in their hotel rooms, Wen Yun returned home to find Tong Yao already out of the shower and sitting on the living room couch. Earlier, Tong Yao had only quickly skimmed over the news about Zhao Wenkai and hadn’t thought much about it. Now, after analyzing it in detail, she finally understood the whole story.

Zhao Wenkai killed the patriarch of the Zhao family, successfully obtained all of the family’s shares. Zhao Wenyu’s father was targeted by Zhao Wenkai because of uncovering these deeds.

In addition to this, Zhao Wenkai had done many things behind the scenes, including something related to the source of Wang Chun’s heart. All of this had drawn the attention of the police. However, they had failed to find evidence against him.

Until Zhao Wenyu’s father suddenly woke up.

Zhao Wenkai probably sensed danger, which might be why he divorced so readily. If she wasn’t wrong, the anonymous letter that Wang Chun received was very likely sent by him.

No matter how you look at it, although Zhao Wenkai was a criminal, he did have genuine feelings for Wang Chun.
