My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day Chapter 904

Chapter 904: 904, Grand Finale [1] Chapter 904: 904, Grand Finale [1] “Why?” Fan Xianyi quickly processed the video and photos on his phone, and then sent them all out through email. “Taking people's money to smooth over their troubles, you tell me why?”

“What do you mean?” Su Yanyan didn't understand.

In the month since she had returned home, aside from hanging out and having fun with friends every day, she had never had a conflict with anyone, except for…

Su Wanwan?

Could it be her…

“Someone came to me a month ago and asked me to film your passionate nude sex video. I don't know what grudges you have, but I only know…” Fan Xianyi spoke with ease. “Just like you, her surname is also Su.”

Her surname is also Su…

These four words undoubtedly confirmed all of Su Yanyan's suspicions.

Just as she had expected.

She had thought that after Su Wanwan married into the Huo Family, she would be too proud to associate with her maternal family surnamed Su.

She had thought that she had already been punished and sent to H Country, and that the past issues had been completely written off.

She had thought…

Su Yanyan gripped her fingers tightly, her sharp nails piercing her flesh. “How much money did she give you exactly?”

Fan Xianyi looked at the “Sent” notification in his email inbox and laughed. “A lot, a whole lot, so much that I won't have to worry for the rest of my life.”

The other side's efficiency was very high.

Almost within a few seconds, the text message notification of the deposit had come through to his bank card.

Mission accomplished!

Fan Xianyi stood up, intending to get his clothes to wear.

As a result, Su Yanyan screamed instantly, her body desperately shrinking back, “What are you doing, get away, get away from me…”

“Stop screaming!” Fan Xianyi picked up his clothes. “If she hadn't given me so much money, do you think I'd want to touch you? You're like a dead fish, not even reacting at all! Do you know how many Viagra pills I had to take just to get it up for you? Outside, how many women are spreading their legs begging for me, and I still get to be choosy. Consider yourself lucky this time, got it?”

A string of vulgar words turned Su Yanyan's face red and then white as her tears circled endlessly in her eyes.

“Behave better in the future.” Fan Xianyi got dressed. “I've made a backup of these videos. Be careful, or I'll release them online, ruin your reputation, and make you wish you were dead! Let your Su Family never be able to turn things around again!”

Having said that, Fan Xianyi left with a swagger.

Su Yanyan sat on the big bed, and her tears finally fell.

Su Wanwan…

I won't let you get away with this!

**
Su Yanyan returned to the Su Family the next morning.

As soon as she stepped into the hall…

“The Second Young Mistress is back.” The voice of the servant Aunt Yang echoed loudly.

A rushed sound of footsteps followed, and Jiang Yi was the first to rush out of the dining room.

When she saw Su Yanyan safe and sound, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but then…

“Yanyan, where exactly did you go last night? And why did you change your clothes?”

Yesterday, when Su Yanyan left, she was wearing a red tank top and denim shorts, but now she was in a more casual-style dress.

“Let her in!”

Su Xueqin's voice quickly rang out.

Furious.

Jiang Yi didn't dare delay. “Understood, Dad.”

After speaking, she hurriedly whispered, “Yanyan, you didn't come back last night, and Grandpa and your Dad were very angry. Remember to explain properly later, okay?”

Su Yanyan nodded.

Indeed, when she entered the dining room, Su Xueqin and Su Yuntang both had dark faces, especially Su Yuntang, who glared furiously, his temples bulging with veins.

Su Yanyan's face turned pale in an instant.

Under Jiang Yi's hint, she could only start by apologising, “I'm sorry, Grandpa, Dad, my friend had a birthday party last night, and I didn't realize I drank a bit too much. It was very late, and I didn't want to worry you, so I stayed over at my friend's place.”

“Which friend?” Su Yuntang challenged.

“Sun Qingyu.”

Su Yanyan had already arranged it with Sun Qingyu.

Sun Qingyu had also agreed to help her with this lie.

About the drink from last night and the matter with Fan Xianyi, Sun Qingyu said she didn't know, only that she left after drinking last night.

“Why didn't you call home? Why couldn't we reach you on your phone?” Su Yuntang pressed further.

Su Yanyan said pitifully, “My phone is dead, and I don't remember the home phone number. If you don't believe me, you can call my friend…”
“Rubbish!” Su Yuntang was unforgiving. “Ever since you returned to the country, tell me, which night have you stayed at home quietly without going out? And now you've even started not coming home at night, spouting lies!”

“I didn't lie.” Su Yanyan continued pitifully, “I really did just get drunk last night, and these clothes are Sun Qingyu's.”

Jiang Yi also hurried to help smooth things over, “Yanyan already told me, she really didn't mean to get drunk, it's just that the birthday party was very lively…”
“Shut up!”

Jiang Yi: “…”
Su Yuntang had already stood up and was walking towards Su Yanyan.

Out of guilt, Su Yanyan subconsciously took a step back.

Su Yuntang stopped in his tracks, “Why are you stepping back?”

“No… nothing…” Su Yanyan was so nervous she started to stutter.

Su Yuntang was already too lazy to waste more words, he took a step forward and then reached out his hand.

“Ah–”
Su Yanyan let out a scream, terrified.

At the same time, the neckline of the white T-shirt was pulled open, revealing her entire shoulder.

Exposed were the increasingly obvious marks of love from the night before.

Blue and purple spread across, teeth marks ambiguous…

It was absolutely shocking!

“What is the meaning of this!” Su Yuntang's furious voice burst forth, nearly shaking the entire villa.

Old man Su Xueqin's face also became instantly stiff and ugly, “Is this the good daughter you two have brought up? Not coming home in the middle of the night, actually running off to mess around with some man! And still lying through her teeth here! Shameless! She's simply tarnishing the Su Family's reputation!”

Jiang Yi hurriedly said, “Dad, Yuntang, don't be angry yet, actually Yanyan has already turned nineteen, she's an adult, and boyfriends and doing this kind of thing… it's quite normal…”
“She's been back for a month and never mentioned any boyfriend. Is that normal? She's clearly messing around with some wild man outside!” Because of past experiences, Su Yuntang detested such things deeply and couldn't bring himself to believe it. His anger was uncontainable, “Jiang Yi, is this the good daughter you've raised! Before she was even eighteen, she dared to seduce her own brother-in-law. And now, after a trip to H Country, she's even done the deed of booking a hotel room to sleep with a man!”

Jiang Yi turned pale.

“From today on, you make sure to educate your well-raised daughter properly! Don't let her step out of the villa's door by half an inch!” Su Yuntang stomped off.

Being so angry, he bumped into a floor vase on his way past the entrance hallway.

“Clang” went the noise.

The vase shattered on the tiles, breaking into pieces.

“A family scandal, truly a family scandal!” Having said that, Su Xueqin also shook his head, and left pushing his wheelchair.

Jiang Yi closed her eyes for a moment, “Clean up the hallway.”

“Yes,” the servant hurried off to attend to it.

“You come upstairs with me!” Jiang Yi extended her hand to pull Su Yanyan upstairs.

At this moment, she had also lost the maternal face she usually wore, her expression full of barely suppressed rage.

The daughter she had carefully raised had already taken a wrong step before, and now, to her dismay, she had made a big mistake again.

But–
No matter how she questioned her, Su Yanyan insisted it was just drinking too much at the party, when she awoke the man was gone, and she dared not mention the fact that she had been videotaped and photographed.

Jiang Yi was out of options.

Having reached this point, she could only help clean up the mess.

“Quickly call all your friends and find out who were the men at the scene last night, question them one by one. Also, I will immediately find a doctor to come home for your check-up. Have you taken the morning-after pill?”

Su Yanyan nodded urgently, “Mom, don't worry, I already took it when I left the hotel.”

Jiang Yi looked at her daughter.

Her mood remained unsettled for a long time.

Somehow, she felt this matter wasn't that simple.

**
Afternoon, at Nangong Hospital.

Yan Shunhua had visited the hospital last night.

But at the time, Dong Manjiao had just finished her amputation surgery. When she woke up and couldn't accept the truth that she had lost a leg, she had a violent episode, and her emotions were unstable.

There was no choice but to sedate her with an injection, which put her right to sleep.

So this afternoon, Yan Shunhua hurried over again.

However, after so many hours, Dong Manjiao's mood hadn't improved much and she was still unwilling to see anyone.

Yan Shunhua stood outside the door, glanced through the glass at the situation inside, and directly ordered, “Open the door.”

The bodyguard recognized her, but hesitated.

“Don't worry, if something happens, I'll take the blame.”

The bodyguard had just opened the door.

“Get out!”

“Scram!”

“Scram!”

On the hospital bed, Dong Manjiao screamed frantically.

Upon a signal from Yan Shunhua, the door was immediately closed.

But as Dong Manjiao turned her face, she saw an uninvited guest standing by the door.

“What are you doing here?” Dong Manjiao asked with a sneer.

She never had any affection for this half-sister from the same father, and, of course, she never took her seriously.

As the only daughter of the Eastern Alliance, Dong Manjiao had always been pampered and had known from a young age that she would be the future heir of the Eastern Alliance.

Her father, Dong Yisen, was an unequivocal businessman and one of Y Country's most legendary economic magnates.

His story is nothing more than that of a poor boy who smuggled himself out of China and, with his own intelligence, conquered the European business world, and just so happened to meet the heir of Europe's mysterious matrilineal imperial power… Dong Manjiao's mother.

The poor boy chose to marry into the family, and the alliance between politics and business led to the Eastern Alliance's strength afterward.

Everyone said that Dong Yisen never loved her mother and that his marriage was merely to seize power and authority; but since her mother's passing, Dong Yisen remained single and never remarried.

On one hand, it may have been due to physical reasons.

But on the other, Dong Manjiao preferred to believe it was because of the marital love they shared.

Unexpectedly, a few years ago…
She was suddenly informed that she had a half-sister born of her father's mistress–a child that Dong Yisen had stealthily brought back to Europe after being left in an orphanage, concealing the fact from the military in Xizang 20 years ago.

At that time, Dong Yisen's health was already deteriorating.

No matter how strong and excellent one's genes are, they are equal in the face of an aging body's functions.

Over the years, he had used many sophisticated international medical techniques to sustain his increasingly failing kidneys, until Yan Shunhua, his biological daughter, appeared…
After examination, doctors told him that the kidney source was compatible and that a transplant surgery could be arranged as long as his physical condition allowed.

Perhaps out of a sense of compensation, Dong Yisen provided a lot of help to Yan Shunhua, his illegitimate daughter.

For example: He agreed to let her change her name and identity, introduced her to America's most outstanding film directors, and sent her to study at America's best film academy…
But what of it?

What Dong Yisen wanted…

Was nothing more than the kidney inside her body!

“Are you doing okay?” Yan Shunhua's voice brought Dong Manjiao back to her senses.

“You don't need to pretend to be kind,” Dong Manjiao said haughtily, lifting her head high. Even though she was wearing a hospital gown, without makeup, and minus one leg, she still carried herself with superiority and arrogance.

“Even if I have lost this leg, I am still the heir of the Eastern Alliance! You are just a bastard, and so is your despicable daughter. Neither of you will ever get anything from the Eastern Alliance!”

Yan Shunhua smiled lightly, “If possible, I wouldn't want myself, or Wanwan, to have any connection with the Eastern Alliance at all.”

“Hypocrite!” Dong Manjiao spat, “Have you forgotten the tough days you spent on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau? The achievements you have today, the fact that you could escape from there, it is all because of my father! Even your daughter, Su Wanwan, would she be living in such wealth and luxury now if it weren't for you pulling strings and marrying her off to Jason?”

“Think what you will,” Yan Shunhua said evenly, “It seems your mental state is quite good, so now I can report back to your father.”

Having said this, she turned to leave.

“Wait a second.”

Yan Shunhua stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the woman in the bed, “Do you have anything else to say?”

“Where's Jason!” Dong Manjiao's eyes reddened with urgency, “Why hasn't he come to see me? Why can't anyone find him when I ask them to call him?”

“Do you not have an answer in your heart as to why he can't be found?” Yan Shunhua replied directly, “He simply doesn't love you, and he has never thought of coming to see you. Even when you needed a family member's signature for your amputation surgery, he didn't offer any opinion and let the doctor decide.”

Clutching the IV needle tightly in her hands, Dong Manjiao persisted stubbornly, “I didn't mean to hit him. At the last moment, I regretted it and turned the steering wheel; that's why I hit the guardrail instead! I lost my leg for his sake, shouldn't he come to the hospital to see me? To hear my explanation? To give me another chance to talk?”

Yan Shunhua looked at her.

There was a moment of astonished silence in her eyes.

Indeed.

No matter how calm and wise a woman is on any given day, when it comes to men, especially the ones they love but cannot have, they lose their rationality in an instant, even their basic ability to judge.

“You call him!” Dong Manjiao demanded again, “I want to see him! I want to talk to him properly! I need to tell him I never meant to hurt him! How could I ever hurt him! I love him so much, so dearly…”
Yan Shunhua came back to her senses, “This time you drove your car at him, the whole process was witnessed by the underground parking lot security, and there is surveillance footage that can serve as evidence. These things could send you to jail. Intentional injury, attempted murder, do you understand the implications of these charges?”

“Did… did Jason personally tell you these things?” There was a flash of fragility across Dong Manjiao's face.

She didn't believe it.

After all, he should have known, shouldn't he? If she hadn't turned the steering wheel at the critical moment, how could his car possibly have escaped?

And now the police are involved?

Impossible…

Impossible…

“If it weren't for your father's call, I repeatedly communicated with Ashen, and he finally agreed not to involve the police. Do you think you could still be here resting in peace if he hadn't?” Yan Shunhua didn't want to say more, “Perhaps at first, he did marry Wanwan because of my request, and the small temptation of shares in the Eastern Alliance. But now, he and Wanwan have long been fond of each other, something you simply cannot destroy. Why not stop this entanglement and leave yourself some dignity?”

Dong Manjiao: “…”

The hospital room fell momentarily silent.

And then…

“Ah–”
Dong Manjiao, as if driven mad, reached out and knocked everything off the bedside table onto the floor.

That wasn't all. She frantically tried to get up, pulling at her IV line and the nearby monitors.

Hearing the noise, bodyguards along with doctors and nurses quickly rushed in.

Yan Shunhua shook her head and quickly left.

Once downstairs, she called Huo Jingshen.

After briefly explaining the situation, Yan Shunhua concluded, “I've already sent over the surveillance video and the police's case closing report to the Eastern Alliance. You can rest assured; he won't trouble you.”

For the past twenty years, she had never been by Su Wanwan's side, nor had she done anything for this daughter of hers.

It was her deepest regret and source of guilt.

So now, she would do her best to help whenever she could, even though her help wasn't actually needed.

“If he wants to find fault, he probably lacks the strength even if he has the will,” Huo Jingshen said, his voice casual yet certain.

And that was the truth.

Dong Yisen's health wasn't good, and it had been deteriorating year by year.

That was why he hadn't been able to undergo kidney transplant surgery.

For fear that after getting a kidney, he wouldn't make it off the operating table safely…

Without absolute certainty, he wouldn't risk any danger.

“Ashen,” Yan Shunhua tightened her grip on the phone, “I'm returning to the film city this afternoon. Once the shooting is over, I have to go to the Eastern Alliance and will take Wendy with me, sending her back to her uncle in America.”

“So?”

“I might be gone for a long time this trip, so I won't make it to the Chu family's wedding, and I'll probably miss Wanwan's birthday too.”

“She's at home today,” Huo Jingshen stated, “Some things might not hurt you if you don't touch them. But constantly running away doesn't solve any problems either. It would be better for you to explain to her yourself what really happened back then.”

Yan Shunhua: “…”

“What she really cares about is why you never came back to find her all these years,” Huo Jingshen continued.

“I know,” Yan Shunhua's eyebrows and eyes were filled with sorrow, “I'll think about it.”

After hanging up, she put down her phone, and when she looked up, she saw someone familiar entering through the door ahead.

Su Yuntang had come to the hospital today to visit the city leaders.

The morning's press conference, due to being outside, resulted in a leader getting heatstroke and fainting from the scorching sun after an hour and was rushed to the hospital.

Little did he know that he would run into the very person he wanted to see.

Su Luo, as always, was clothed in a modified qipao that draped softly over her slightly slender frame, accentuating her form.

From a distance, she didn't seem too different from her younger years.

Su Yuntang thought, how could he have believed that Yan Shunhua and Ya Jin were two completely different people when he first met her in the hotel?

Apart from the manner of speaking and tone, her features hadn't changed at all; they were still so youthful, beautiful, and pitiable…

“Director Yan?” A subordinate by her side had already greeted her, “What a coincidence, are you here to visit someone as well?”

Yan Shunhua's eyes were clear as she nodded to him.

Intending to leave, she then heard Su Yuntang's voice, “Wait a moment.”

Both subordinates looked at the station manager.

Their faces showed surprise.

Especially when they heard him say, “Shunhua, let's talk.”

Shunhua?

Since when did the station manager have such an affectionate relationship with Director Yan?

“`
They're on a first-name basis now?

Yan Shunhua said, “It's getting late, my friends will be here any minute.”

“I know, just 10 minutes, I want to talk to you.” Su Yuntang's tone was forceful, “I've been messaging you and you never reply, I call but you never pick up. I don't mean anything else, I simply want to know what really happened back then!”

Having said that, he directly instructed his subordinates, “You two go on up first, just say I ran into an acquaintance here and have some matters to discuss. I'll come up in a few minutes.”

“Okay.”

After the two subordinates left, Yan Shunhua furrowed his brows, “What do you want to ask?”

Su Yuntang looked around, “It's not convenient to talk here, let's go sit over there.”

There was a row of waiting seats near the door, the lobby on the first floor was not very crowded at the time, making it convenient for conversation.

Yan Shunhua picked up his phone to glance at it.

He had an appointment with Gu Shaoting at eleven o'clock, and it was now ten fifty.

“Just 10 minutes.” Su Yuntang spoke again.

Yan Shunhua: “…”

She looked up, “Alright.”

The two of them then proceeded to their seats, one after another. Then…

“Are you really here to visit a friend? Or… is there something wrong with your health?”

Faced with his concern, Yan Shunhua's reaction was cold, “Let's stick to the matter at hand.”

Su Yuntang: “…”

After clearing his throat, he began, “I asked my father about the incident when you supposedly died in childbirth…”

“It's a lie.”

Su Yuntang looked at her, “You mean to say…”

“A few days after giving birth to Wanwan, someone came to the hospital and found me. Before I even finished my confinement, I was put on a train to Tibet. It was a rough and bumpy ride for several days and nights, I almost died on the way…” As he recounted the past, there was little emotion on Yan Shunhua's face, and his voice was as indifferent as ever.

“Later, when I settled down over there, I found out my father had taken Wanwan back from the orphanage. He sent me a message, telling me that if I stayed put there as a female soldier, he would take good care of Wanwan and wouldn't let her suffer even the slightest grievance.”

“The military presence there was too strong; I simply couldn't, and had no means to escape…”

“So, are you saying Grandfather Xing was also involved in this matter?” Su Yuntang immediately asked.

The Xing Family had a military background.

Especially old Mr. Xing, who had once been the commander of the troops stationed in Tibet.

Before Su Yanyan went abroad, the Su and Xing families had always been close, they were even related by marriage at one point.

Su Yuntang only needed to connect the dots slightly, and everything seemed to fall into place.

Yan Shunhua did not deny it, “He was good friends with your father, his helping out was to be expected.”

So that's how it was.

Su Yuntang realized the truth, “Then what happened next? Why did you later go to America, and even change your name and…”

“Why don't you ask me about what happened before?” Yan Shunhua suddenly interrupted him.

“You mean…” Su Yuntang's expression changed slighly.

“But you really don't need to ask.” Yan Shunhua said, standing up, “Because for this matter, you might as well ask your wife directly.”

My wife?

Jiang Yi?

A new change flickered across Su Yuntang's face.

Though subtle, Yan Shunhua knew it had taken effect.

Just then his cellphone rang, he swiftly picked it up to look, “My friend has come to pick me up, goodbye.”

After speaking, he answered the call and turned to leave, “Shaoting, where are you?”

Just at that moment, someone pushed a gurney in, the wheels rumbling. Yan Shunhua, with his back turned, was about to be hit…

“Watch out!”

Su Yuntang grabbed his arm in one swift motion.

Yan Shunhua's whole body fell backward into the man's arms.

A faint scent of daisy perfume mixed with sandalwood drifted over… Su Yuntang even felt the woman's body curves, pressing intimately against his chest.

Delicate, warm, seemingly boneless…

The next second.

Yan Shunhua pushed him away with her hands.

“`
Su Yuntang stopped his expression, “Are you alright?”

“Thank you.” Yan Shunhua's expression remained unchanged. After saying this, he turned away again.

Su Yuntang just stood there.

His face a picture of wistful loss.

It seemed he could still hear Yan Shunhua's voice in his ears…

His hands slowly clenched into fists.

**
In the upstairs ward.

After being calmed down, Dong Manjiao had completely regained her composure.

She lay in the hospital bed, letting the doctors and nurses tend to her IV line that had come loose in her struggle.

The hatred in her heart grew deeper.

Especially when she saw that empty trouser leg…

A sense of despair spread from deep within her heart.

The voice of Yan Shunhua seemed to echo in her mind, endlessly replaying:
“He doesn't love you at all, he never even thought of visiting you, and when it came to signing for your amputation surgery as a family member, he didn't express any opinion.”

“I've warned you before, you don't understand Ashen at all. What you know is nothing more than the elegant appearance he shows in the business world.”

“Now, he and Wanwan are in mutual affection, something you simply cannot destroy!”

Cannot destroy?

A fierce hatred flashed in Dong Manjiao's eyes.

After the doctors and nurses left.

“Bring me my phone.”

The bodyguard hesitated, “Miss, the doctor said you should rest well.”

“Bring it here!”

Bodyguard: “…”

He had no choice but to pick up the phone.

Expecting the miss to start calling Huo Jingshen again, but instead, she just looked at her phone.

After a minute.

“Send these out.” Dong Manjiao handed over the phone.

The bodyguard took the phone and saw.

They were all photos and videos of a man and a woman engaging in those acts, the man's face blurred with mosaic, but the woman's face was unmistakably clear…

Dong Manjiao spoke again, “Send them to China's hottest newspapers, magazines, TV stations, forums, all websites… send them all out!”

“Yes, Miss.”

**
Imperial Court Villa.

Huo Jingshen had suffered minor injuries, but still went to the office to work early in the morning.

Su Wanwan guessed that half the reason might be that the company was indeed busy, but the other half was probably to avoid drinking those nourishing soups at home.

Last night, Aunt Xiu had started to make soup in the kitchen after following them home.

Huo Jingshen was also a cooking enthusiast, who liked to step into the kitchen to cook a few dishes whenever he had time.

But most of what he made were simple home-cooked meals, quick and convenient.

Now, however…

He used the pressure cooker, gas stove, even the rice cooker…

Several pots were steaming at once!

The spacious and bright open kitchen was now filled with a smoky haze, as if Taishang Laojun was presiding over a Taoist ritual…

No wonder, having served the Old Madam Huo for decades, the old housemaid was efficient and didn't need Aunt Han's assistance.

And here she was…

Aunt Xiu quickly brought out a bowl of soup, “Young Madam, I've served you a little less than half a bowl of black chicken soup, have a taste.”

Su Wanwan blinked, “Aunt Xiu, I just had lunch…”

And she was very full!

“I know.” Aunt Xiu smiled, “But I've been stewing this black chicken soup all morning, and the bones are tender. I've added a lot of good stuff too. Make sure you drink it before it gets cold, understand?”

“Oh…”

“Xiaohan,” Aunt Xiu began to instruct, “I have simmered those soup bases. Later, stash them in the fridge. Whenever the young master feels like having some, just warm up a bowl for him. It's particularly convenient to have one every day.”

Aunt Han nodded repeatedly, “Sure, sure, sure.”

Su Wanwan was like: “…”

What she wanted to say was, even if you store them in the fridge, I doubt that certain someone would ever want to drink them.

After all, it's okay to drink these rich soups occasionally, but it would be unbearable to consume them every day, even for an iron man.

Most importantly, she couldn't bear it either…

“By the way, Young Mistress,” Aunt Xiu turned to Su Wanwan, “aside from the black chicken soup, I will stew some bird's nest soup for you later. This is the finest blood bird's nest meticulously selected by the old madam. It's especially good for women, great for beauty and nourishment. But most important is health preservation. Once you are in good health, you'll get pregnant more smoothly. The old madam particularly emphasized this…”

“Ah!” Su Wanwan suddenly exclaimed.

Aunt Xiu had to stop, “What's wrong, Young Mistress?”

“I just remembered, I haven't walked the dog today!” Su Wanwan said and then dashed out.

Otherwise…

Aunt Xiu would probably prattle on endlessly about the benefits of pregnancy for a woman, the points to note for pre-pregnancy preparation, and what is better to eat during pregnancy…

**
“KO!”

“KO!”

Su Wanwan arrived outside the villa, wearing a sun hat, and after a few steps, saw KO gallantly running over from the backyard.

Upon reaching her, the excited dog stretched out its tongue to lick her leg.

“Okay, okay, stop licking, you're getting drool everywhere.” Su Wanwan patted its head, “Where's your leash?”

Since she was no longer afraid of dogs, KO was completely free within the villa's yard.

But if she wanted to take it out for a walk, she still had to leash it up, because KO was large, looked fierce, and its black fur… could easily scare little kids.

“Woof, woof!” KO barked twice.

Su Wanwan coughed lightly, “No, we're going out for a walk, you need to be on a leash.”

Seeing there was no room for negotiation, KO shook its head and then ran into the villa.

Shortly after, it came out with a loop of dog leash in its mouth.

“Good boy.”

Su Wanwan took the dog leash, swiftly tied it to KO's collar, and then, holding the leash, said, “Let's go.”

The weather was too hot.

Although she wore a sun hat, the noon sun scorched her arms and legs, almost too much to bear.

Su Wanwan felt a bit of regret…

But KO was thrilled, striding eagerly forward and continuously howling “Owooo, owooo” from its mouth.

After all, it was happiest whenever it got to go out and play.

With no other choice, Su Wanwan grasped the leash tightly, slowly leading it forward.

As they passed by the neighboring villa.

“Sister!”

Suddenly, the voice of a little girl came through, her Mandarin a bit awkward.

Su Wanwan hadn't looked over yet.

“Woof!”

“Woof, woof!” KO started barking vigorously.

Su Wanwan quickly pulled on it, “Don't bark!”

Don't you know how scary you sound when you bark?

But when she looked over, she saw the little girl didn't seem at all frightened by the barking.

“Sister.”

Seeing her looking, the little girl called out again.

This time, she spoke even more slowly than before, as if afraid that she wouldn't be understood.

Su Wanwan stood there, her fingers tightening slightly.

The little girl appeared to be around twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a red and white checkered dress, her smile warm, her eyes clear.

Her eyebrows began to furrow deeply.

And when she looked to the side.

As expected.

The sign next to the door read “Tianquan Royal Court No. 68”…

Behind the big iron gate, the little girl had been watching her all along.

Perhaps because she hadn't spoken, the little girl opened her mouth awkwardly and slowly called out in Mandarin, “Sister.”

“Woof woof!” KO barked as well.

Su Wanwan lifted her head and looked behind her.

The entire villa courtyard was very quiet with only her standing behind the iron gate.

What was this about?

“The…,” the little girl's voice rang out again, “hearing aid…”

Su Wanwan snapped back to reality.

She looked at the little girl and finally spoke, “What did you say?”

“The…my…” the little girl stretched out her hand.

“Woof woof woof!” KO was frantically digging the ground with her front paws, trying to get attention.

Su Wanwan finally realized something was off.

She looked down, following the little girl's pointing finger, and saw that outside the iron gate in front, there lay something green.

The little girl quickly shook her finger, “My…mine…”

Su Wanwan walked over, picked up the object, and then looked up, “Is this yours?”

“Yes!” The little girl nodded frantically.

Su Wanwan approached, “Here you go.”

The little girl hurriedly took it and deftly placed it on her ear.

So this was a…hearing aid?

Su Wanwan watched her in surprise.

With the hearing aid on, the little girl smiled even more joyfully, “Thank you, sister.”

“Do you know me?” The words slipped out before she could stop them.

The little girl tilted her head, somewhat puzzled by her question.

Su Wanwan suddenly felt she might be overthinking it.

That day at the doorway, she had been in the car, and this “Wanwan” had gotten out of the car following Yan Shunhua, quite a distance away, and couldn't possibly have seen her…

“I…just now…lost my hearing…”

Seeing that she was struggling to speak, Su Wanwan directly switched to English, “You speak English, I can understand.”

On hearing her native language, Wendy immediately nodded and said fluently, “Hello, sister, my name is Wendy.”

“Wendy?”

Wasn't she called “Wanwan”?

Wendy nodded and explained how she had accidentally dropped her hearing aid outside just then, and she asked, “Sister, what's your name?”

Su Wanwan: “…”

“Sister?” Wendy looked at her curiously.

Just then.

“Wanwan!”

Su Wanwan's body stiffened.

At the same time.

“Mommy!” Wendy's eyes shone with happiness as she stretched out her little hand and waved it frantically.

Yan Shunhua's car happened to be restricted from driving today and couldn't be taken out.

And with the film shooting almost coming to an end, as a partner of the company, Gu Shaoting went to pick her up from the hospital to discuss the upcoming film promotion work.

They planned to have a meal and then take some time to discuss it together.

Who would have known, just as they arrived at the gate, they witnessed this scene.

Yan Shunhua quickly approached, “Wanwan…”

“Mommy!” Wendy's call interrupted her.

Su Wanwan didn't speak, just held tightly to the dog leash and nodded slightly to Gu Shaoting, who was getting out of the car behind her.

“Wendy,” Yan Shunhua had no choice but to ask, “Why did you run to the gate? Didn't I tell you to wait inside?”

“I wanted to see Mommy sooner!” Wendy said, and she began to explain, “I wasn't paying attention just now and dropped my hearing aid outside, and this beautiful sister picked it up for me.”
