Lin Yuwei shouted angrily. Chu Chenyi's words were clearly meant to deceive her. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she might have been fooled by Chu Chenyi's glib tongue.
But unfortunately, this time she saw it with her own eyes. The evidence was irrefutable. No matter how much Chu Chenyi tried to argue, she would never believe his sweet talk again.
"I'm telling the truth. I've explained it to you dozens of times. Why don't you believe me!"
He suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness and frustration. This was more difficult than facing thousands of enemy soldiers. When he was in a stalemate with Chu Yanxi, he had never felt so helpless as he did today.
He had explained it more than ten times, yet Lin Yuwei remained unmoved. All explanations were futile. At this moment, he truly had no other options.
Chu Chenyi sat down on the chair, looking somewhat dejected, with an expression of utter resignation.
This indifferent attitude completely ignited Lin Yuwei's anger. She abruptly stood up from her chair, hands on her hips, and stomped towards Chu Chenyi, pointing at his nose and unleashing a torrent of abuse.
"You scumbag, you heartless wretch! I've only just become pregnant, and you're already messing around with other women. Do you really think I'm easy to bully!"
"I didn't. I've already explained it to you more than once. Why won't you believe me? I truly have no relationship with those women!"
Although he was drunk at the time, he, as a man, could still clearly tell whether he had done anything.
It was just that now, even with a thousand mouths, he couldn't convince Lin Yuwei. She simply wouldn't listen to his explanations, so what could he say?
"Does a dog say it doesn't like to eat shit? Would anyone believe that!"
Lin Yuwei's remark almost made Feng Jin burst out laughing. She had to admire Lin Yuwei's improved scolding skills. Every word was truly to the point.
"You... are you two preparing to watch a show?"
Feng Jin's laughter drew Chu Chenyi's attention. He turned to see the two of them sitting side-by-side behind him, casually munching on sunflower seeds, clearly enjoying his predicament.
"No... no, you continue... continue."
Feng Jin quickly turned away and refused, waving her hands, urging them to continue. It would indeed be a pity if the scene ended just as it was getting interesting. She insisted they must carry on.
"You..."
"What do you mean, 'you'? Our matters are not resolved. If you don't explain yourself clearly today, I'm not done with you!"
Her anger had completely overwhelmed her reason. Lin Yuwei no longer cared about anything else. She was determined to get a clear explanation from Chu Chenyi, to understand exactly what had happened yesterday.
"I... I..."
Chu Chenyi's mouth parted slightly, but he didn't know what to say. He had already said everything he could and explained everything dozens of times. He truly didn't know what else to say.
"So you have no words to explain now, or you simply can't explain? This is clearly an admission!"
Lin Yuwei clung to her preconceived notion. The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt. The tears that had just stopped gushed out again.
"Don't cry first. I... I didn't mean that..." Chu Chenyi became flustered, rushing to comfort Lin Yuwei. If she cried with such strong emotional fluctuations, it could harm the child in her womb, which would be terrible.
Indeed, the situation that followed soon proved Chu Chenyi's worries correct. Lin Yuwei suddenly felt waves of sharp pain in her abdomen and instinctively reached to cover it.
"It hurts... it hurts..."
"It hurts! Where does it hurt?" Chu Chenyi worriedly pulled Lin Yuwei into his arms and asked with great concern.
Feng Jin noticed something was wrong with Lin Yuwei. She dropped her sunflower seeds and hurried over to Lin Yuwei. "Does your stomach hurt?"
Seeing that Lin Yuwei kept her hand on her stomach without letting go, she had a guess and asked.
"Sister Feng Jin... it hurts... my stomach..." Lin Yuwei's brows were tightly furrowed. The intense pain made her lips turn slightly pale. She tightly clutched Feng Jin's sleeve, as if holding onto a lifeline and unwilling to let go.
Chu Chenyi also panicked. He stood frozen, his heart consumed by fear, unsure of what to do for a moment.
Fortunately, Feng Jin was level-headed. She immediately had someone carry Lin Yuwei to the room.
"You wait outside."
Feng Jin pushed Chu Chenyi, who was trying to follow her in, out of the room. She then closed the door and locked it from the inside.
"Sister Feng Jin... Sister... please save the child... the child..." Lin Yuwei's only concern was the child in her womb. She paid no heed to her own safety, only pleading with Feng Jin to save her child.
"Don't worry, with me here, you and the child will be fine!"
Feng Jin reached out and patted Lin Yuwei's hand, reassuring her. This would be beneficial for both her and the child.
She opened her portable acupuncture kit. Feng Jin's fingers, as fair as white scallions, delicately manipulated the silver needles, pricking one into the back of Lin Yuwei's hand.
Lin Yuwei felt a slight pain as the needle penetrated, but it was only for a brief moment. Immediately after, Lin Yuwei felt a wave of dizziness wash over her, and soon she could no longer resist and fell asleep.
...
"Why haven't they come out yet..."
Chu Chenyi was pacing back and forth like an ant on a hot pan. Ever since Lin Yuwei was carried into the room, he hadn't stopped for a moment. He had been lingering outside, occasionally pressing his ear to the door to peer inside, but he saw nothing.
This feeling of being locked out, utterly clueless, was true torture. He regretted not being more forceful and barging in earlier.
Who would have thought that a moment of carelessness would lead him to be kicked out by Feng Jin? A single misstep had led to eternal regret.
"Can't you sit down and rest? Stop wandering around so aimlessly!" Seeing Chu Chenyi constantly pacing back and forth in front of him, he saw Chu Chenyi's figure even when he closed his eyes.
If Chu Chenyi continued like this, he would get dizzy himself. Ling Mohan was utterly helpless.
"How can I not be anxious? It's been so long, and there's not a bit of news..."
Chu Chenyi droned on, his mouth full of complaints, showing no intention of stopping once he started.
"Feng Jin will be fine inside. You can put your heart at ease!"
