Clara suppressed the urge to roll her eyes. Seeing that Du Ruoxin seemed unwilling to mention money, she asked directly, "Will the bank card be stopped?"
Hearing the question from the other end of the signal, Du Ruoxin's heart skipped a beat, uh—
"No," she replied.
Clara: "Will the monthly living expenses be reduced?"
Du Ruoxin's heart continued to ache: "No."
Clara finally breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."
Du Ruoxin: "—"
She was worried that she wouldn't be able to accept it, worried that her emotions would be unstable, but she only cared about money?
Clara seemed to sense the coldness in Du Ruoxin's tone and quickly began to cry, "Ruoxin, where are you?"
"Wuwuwu—"
"You broke up with me without a word, I'm so sad, so heartbroken."
"Without him, what will I do? What about the baby?"
"The baby doesn't have a father before it's even born, it's so pitiful..."
"Wuwuwu—"
Du Ruoxin's lips twitched subconsciously. Was this... the legendary drama queen?
But listening to the deafening crying on the radio waves, she put away her thoughts and comforted her, "How can the baby not have a father?"
"Big brother won't disown the child, sister-in-law, don't worry."
"Take good care of yourself and give birth to a big healthy boy."
Clara pretended to sob, "Yes, you're right, I need to stay happy for the baby to be healthy."
"Ruoxin, where are you? I haven't been out for a long time, can you accompany me shopping?"
Du Ruoxin: "I'm in India, not in the country."
Clara: "Ah?"
What a pity, her desire to shop and buy luxury goods was dashed.
Du Ruoxin added, "I'm on a business trip with Rong Jingyang. Sister-in-law, do you like anything? I'll bring it back for you."
Clara's eyes lit up, and she said unceremoniously, "I've got my eye on a few styles..."
If big brother wants to break up, let him. She can't control it, but the child is innocent. She must supervise big brother to fulfill his responsibilities as a father.
"Ding, ding, ding," the WeChat ringtone sounded. It was a photo sent by Clara.
Du Ruoxin replied with "Received," then composed herself and walked into the house.
However, when Du Ruoxin saw Aitaen, who had "again" changed her makeup and attire, carefully serving her elder brother, her throat felt as if something was stuck.
She froze in place.
Rong Jingyang saw her stunned, waved his hand, and called out, "Ruoxin, come here."
Du Ruoxin grinned, smiled slightly, and sat down beside her husband.
"Unhappy?" Rong Jingyang asked in a low voice.
Du Ruoxin shook her head, "No."
Rong Jingyang didn't press further, but subtly held her hand tightly.
A warm current flowed through Du Ruoxin's heart. It felt so good to have her husband's care!
Throughout the tea party, Du Ruoxin spoke very little.
Her gaze kept drifting between Aitaen and her elder brother—was Aitaen a woman given to her elder brother by the old man? Did her elder brother announce his engagement cancellation to the media so hastily because of Aitaen?
