Jiang Siyu was about to cover Zhan Mohan with a blanket. Since the stitches had been redone and he hadn't been given anesthetic, his face was pale and he was covered in a cold sweat. Jiang Siyu had personally witnessed how he had endured the pain.
She became increasingly annoyed with Wei Yumeng, muttering under her breath.
"Look, she injured you, and then she just ran off."
Zhan Mohan frowned and emphasized, "It has nothing to do with her."
"How can it not have anything to do with her? She was looking after you last night. If she had been observing your condition, how could the wound have split open? I..."
Before Jiang Siyu could finish speaking, her peripheral vision caught her noticing Zhan Mohan's phone screen light up. She saw a message from an unfamiliar number.
[Your husband is at the Obstetrics and Gynecology department of the Maternal and Child Health Hospital. Come quickly!]
How many wives could Zhan Mohan have? It could only be Wei Yumeng.
"This..."
Jiang Siyu pointed at the phone in surprise, but Zhan Mohan had already taken it. Upon seeing the message's content, his brows furrowed.
"A'han, does this text message refer to Wei Yumeng? Why is she at the Obstetrics and Gynecology department of the Maternal and Child Health Hospital? Don't tell me she... she's pregnant!"
Zhan Mohan's expression turned grim, his eyes turning scarlet as if he was about to devour someone. He pushed himself up from the hospital bed.
"Did you drive?"
"Yes." Jiang Siyu was still a bit bewildered.
"Can you find the Maternal and Child Health Hospital?"
After all, their city only had one Maternal and Child Health Hospital.
Jiang Siyu nodded again.
Zhan Mohan nimbly pulled out the needle from his arm and had already flipped himself up and stood.
"Let's go."
Jiang Siyu was shocked. "You're going? No, the doctor said your wound has been re-stitched. If it splits open again, there might be an infection."
"Are you going or not?" Zhan Mohan's gaze was sharp, a chilling aura emanating from him. Just looking at his cold face was enough to captivate one's soul.
She knew that once Zhan Mohan made a decision, no one could stop him.
"Then... then I'll help you."
When Zhan Mohan and Jiang Siyu arrived at the Obstetrics and Gynecology department, Jiang Siyu indeed saw Wei Yumeng and Mu Linjing walking out, holding a report.
Jiang Siyu angrily walked up, snatched the report from Wei Yumeng's hand, and questioned loudly.
"Wei Yumeng, is this why you left without saying goodbye?"
Wei Yumeng looked at the furious Jiang Siyu with confusion.
"Miss Jiang, what do you mean?"
Jiang Siyu sneered, "You're still asking me what I mean? Why are you here? You're pregnant with someone else's child, and you're afraid A'han will find out, aren't you?"
Zhan Mohan, standing beside her, had a dark expression, his entire body enveloped in a wild, aggressive aura.
"Wei Yumeng, are you pregnant with Xin Ran's child?"
Wei Yumeng stared blankly at Zhan Mohan, then stiffly pulled at the corners of her lips.
"Who told you I'm pregnant with Xin Ran's child?"
Zhan Mohan narrowed his eyes, his voice chilling. "Isn't it?"
Mu Linjing suddenly laughed. "Did you misunderstand something? It's not Yumeng who's pregnant, it's me."
Zhan Mohan and Jiang Siyu were stunned for a moment. Mu Linjing took the report back from Jiang Siyu and held the examination results up to Jiang Siyu.
"Look closely. This is my name on it. This is my report."
"How is that possible!" Jiang Siyu couldn't believe it. The text message clearly said Wei Yumeng was at the Obstetrics and Gynecology department. She was already divorced, so what else could it be but pregnancy?
But after she looked closely, it indeed said Mu Linjing.
Zhan Mohan's eyes, like a falcon's, fixed on Wei Yumeng. "Then why were you here?"
"Can't I accompany her?" Wei Yumeng replied righteously and logically.
It was completely normal to accompany a friend for such a matter.
Jiang Siyu looked at Zhan Mohan doubtfully. "Did we make a mistake?"
Zhan Mohan was not easily deceived. He took the report and walked inside. The doctor was just about to pack up and leave when they saw a tall figure standing before them.
"Is there something I can help you with?"
"I'd like to ask, is this report indicating pregnancy? And who is it for?"
The doctor couldn't help but want to laugh upon hearing this.
"Isn't it clearly written on the report? Mu Linjing, isn't that the girl with short hair?"
As she spoke, the doctor pointed accurately at Mu Linjing.
Seeing that the matter was cleared up, Jiang Siyu didn't feel it was appropriate to ask further. Moreover, Zhan Mohan was still injured, and she was worried.
"A'han, let's go back to the hospital first. I'm worried about your injury."
Zhan Mohan seemed to be waiting for something, his gaze fixed on Wei Yumeng. But Wei Yumeng wasn't thinking about that at the moment; her mind was filled with Zhan Mohan returning to the hospital as soon as possible.
A moment later, Zhan Mohan finally agreed. "Let's go."
Jiang Siyu's face lit up, and she linked her arm with Zhan Mohan's.
"I'll help you."
Zhan Mohan coldly withdrew his gaze and disappeared down the corridor with Jiang Siyu.
Mu Linjing touched her chest, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, we reacted quickly. If President Zhan had known you were pregnant, he would have dragged you here to have an abortion before going back."
Wei Yumeng stared at his retreating figure, lost in thought.
"Lin Jing, do you think he really can't accept the child in my belly?"
Mu Linjing sighed. "Yumeng, it's meaningless to dwell on this kind of problem now. You just need to remember that this child doesn't belong to Xin Ran, nor to President Zhan. It belongs to you, and only you. What we need to do now is keep the pregnancy a secret. However, you still need to make plans. After all, if you walk too much on a dark road, you'll eventually run into a ghost. Just because you can keep it a secret now doesn't mean you can when you're further along."
Just then, Chu Zi'an walked out of another examination room.
"How is it? Is everything okay?"
Wei Yumeng truly needed to thank Chu Zi'an this time.
"Thanks to you having connections at the hospital, otherwise, if my sister had sent a message, we would have been caught completely off guard."
She shivered just thinking about Zhan Mohan's chilling gaze earlier.
Chu Zi'an patted the doctor's shoulder. "Old Yang, thank you this time. I'll treat you to dinner another day."
Old Yang was actually a female doctor, but Wei Yumeng didn't know why Chu Zi'an called such a beautiful female doctor "Old Yang." Anyone who didn't know would think she was a boy.
"You've said several times that you'll treat me to dinner. Why wait for another day? Today is as good as any. Since your friend is here, let's all go together."
Wei Yumeng waved her hand. "I won't go. You two go. Dr. Yang, I really owe you today."
Yang Tao replied politely, "It's a small matter, a small matter. My father is the vice president here. As long as that... that handsome man just now doesn't use his connections to investigate, there shouldn't be any major problems."
"He won't."
Even if he found out later that she was pregnant, he would find her; he wouldn't involve the hospital.
Chu Zi'an asked Wei Yumeng, "Although you didn't win him over, you're at least friends. What's your plan next? I know Zhan Mohan's personality well; he won't let this go easily. If he's alert enough, he might figure things out when he thinks about it."
"We'll see then. I can't think that far ahead now. You guys go eat first. Lin Jing and I will be leaving."
Wei Yumeng was still feeling flustered. Although they had narrowly escaped this time, it didn't mean they would be so lucky in the future.
Chu Zi'an suddenly said, "Why don't I give you a ride back? What if Zhan Mohan hasn't gone far and you run into him again?"
Wei Yumeng couldn't delay Chu Zi'an any further, and besides, she could see that Yang Tao seemed to want to have dinner with him.
"No need. Lin Jing and I can easily get a taxi outside. I'll treat you to dinner next time."
After all, Chu Zi'an had helped them so much this time. It was fortunate they ran into him at the hospital; otherwise, she didn't know how they would have gotten out of this lie.
Chu Zi'an finally drove Wei Yumeng and Mu Linjing to the entrance, cautioned them to be careful, and then turned back.
After Wei Yumeng and Mu Linjing got into the car, Mu Linjing asked her.
"Your sister is always causing trouble for you. This time, she even reported to President Zhan. Should we teach her a lesson? We can't just let her play us like this for nothing, can we?"
A mocking smile appeared on Wei Yumeng's lips. "Don't worry about that. It definitely won't end like this. I've already asked Chu Zi'an to help me investigate. Wei Jin went out drinking with friends this time and got drunk. Those men then... anyway, she's pregnant now, and the father of the child is unknown. She's here for an abortion."
Mu Linjing heard this and gave her a thumbs-up. "That's amazing! So, how do we deal with her?"
