Chapter 1477: I Know
Jing Chu didn’t care about everyone’s gaze at all; these people only knew each other casually, and she didn’t care what they thought.
After getting full, she returned to the dormitory. What she cared about most now was the child in her belly.
She had never thought of not wanting him; even if the child wouldn’t have a complete family in the future, she still looked forward to him.
Han Xiangjun came back from outside and brought braised beef for Jing Chu.
"Jing Chu, keep it for when you get hungry at night. There will be more every day in the future. You have to take good care of yourself.
Oh, by the way, your dad is escorting wine over tonight."
"Thank you, Uncle Han."
Han Xiangjun waved his hand and left. It wasn’t appropriate for a lone man and woman to be together.
Chaoyang was waiting for him in the office, "Master Han?"
"Chaoyang, ah, Jing Chu is pregnant." This couldn’t be hidden, better tell this silly boy.
Chaoyang heard the news. Tears dropped down. What is all this?
"Thank you, Uncle Han."
"It’s okay. Don’t agitate Jing Chu anymore."
"I know, I’m avoiding her now," Chaoyang said with a bitter smile.
It should have been a happy event for the couple, but now it’s turned into this.
"Your father-in-law is coming back with the wine cart today."
Chaoyang smiled sadly, "Hmm, I got it.
Master Han, how is everything arranged?"
"It’ll be done in a few days; be patient and wait.
Chaoyang, did you really do it with her?"
"When I woke up, I was lying naked with her."
"So you don’t know what happened either, do you?"
"Hmm."
"You didn’t feel anything physically?"
"Just sore back and waist. Don’t know about the rest.
Master Han, why are you asking this?" Chaoyang heard Han Xiangjun’s words and suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.
"Because I went to the hospital and asked someone. Cao Yulian is already over two months pregnant, so this child is definitely not yours. But it’s hard to say if something else happened or not."
"Master Han, you really have no impression at all."
"Alright, it will be found out.
Your master’s people never fail to find out. You and Jing Chu should go listen; maybe it’s a good thing, or it could be the worst still."
Chaoyang nodded, "The worst is already like this, I still want to know what exactly happened."
Even though Chaoyang said so, there was still a bit of small hope inside. But he suppressed it, afraid that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
He just burrowed in his office, and Han Xiangjun, seeing no other way, found someone to bring over a single bed and bedding for him.
Wang Menglin came back at night, and seeing her mother-in-law looking listless, she was startled, thinking the elder was sick.
"Mom, what’s wrong with you?"
"It’s nothing. How’s Xiao Zhen?"
"She’s due in a few days, I estimate."
"Take more care of her, ask if there’s anything you don’t understand."
"Hmm. Mom, have Doctor Liu check your pulse tomorrow; I’m worried about you. I’ll take care of the child tomorrow."
"It’s nothing, it’s not about the body." Then she talked to Wang Menglin about Chaoyang’s matter.
Wang Menglin said no more. This little brother-in-law was just an ordinary person, how could someone scheme against him, he had no money or power. Why scheme against him?
"Jing Chu is also pregnant. What should we do!" Qu Xiaoli said, wiping her tears.
"Mom, don’t be like this. Isn’t Uncle Lv handling this? Also, even if you get sick from worry, it won’t help, you have to stay well, you still need to look after Jing Chu’s confinement in the future."
Wang Menglin hurriedly consoled Qu Xiaoli, as aging made it impossible to bear illness from frustration.
Qu Xiaoli sighed, "I know, but how could Chaoyang be like this?" Ultimately, she pitied her son.
Wang Menglin didn’t expect it to be like this, this second brother-in-law treasured Jing Chu dearly.
That pretty girl probably wouldn’t tolerate this? She suddenly thought of her husband; he was often not home, though he had less contact with women.
Forget it, whatever comes, let it come.
Everything in the Capital was arranged, and Cao Yulian had already been controlled by them.

Chaoyang left first. Han Xiangjun found Jing Chu. "Let’s go, and listen to what that woman has to say."
Jing Chu understood what Han Xiangjun meant. "Uncle Han, Uncle Han, is this necessary?"
"Jing Chu, regardless, it’s best to hear it with your own ears." Han Xiangjun felt like a father worried sick.
Jing Chu didn’t want to go, but Han Xiangjun insisted. She had no choice but to follow along.
Cao Yulian was already a bit delirious, the medicine was taking effect. Han Xiangjun wanted to hear her true words, so the dosage was quite large.
Jing Chu and Chaoyang were not together. Han Xiangjun accompanied Jing Chu.
Now Cao Yulian was trapped in a delusion. Jing Chu watched her cry and laugh, feeling nothing but disdain for her.
Suddenly she burst into a deranged laughter, "You are all not human."
Hearing her vicious curse, Jing Chu felt even more revulsion.
"Haha, you beast, even if I carry this offshoot, you won’t get it."
Han Xiangjun held Jing Chu, who wanted to leave, and shook his head at her.
Jing Chu had no choice but to sit back down again.
"Huang Chongguang, I just found a man to disgust you. Let your child call someone else dad. Hahaha."
Jing Chu frowned as she listened. She’s not stupid, she knew Chaoyang must be taking the blame for this.
"I just like women, what of it? You think you can even touch me once?"
Han Xiangjun raised an eyebrow, Chaoyang was about to clear his name.
"Men are so hateful, so dirty.
Yes, I just can’t stand Li Chaoyang’s happiness. I just want to see him suffer. Just a little plotting, and he’s in anguish like me.
I hate all happy people in the world, why can they, yet I must live in disgust?"
Listening to Cao Yulian’s hysterical words, Jing Chu cast a glance at Han Xiangjun, stood up, and left.
She felt much relieved. Chaoyang didn’t betray his vow.
Jing Chu didn’t realize her tears had already fallen. Since the incident until now, she had been crying secretly, unwilling to let anyone see her vulnerability.
Chaoyang also came out. Seeing Jing Chu’s tear-streaked face, he rushed over and hugged her. This joy of regaining a lost treasure made him tear up too.
"Jing Chu, I didn’t wrong you. I didn’t. Jing Chu, my Jing Chu."
Feeling Chaoyang’s tears, Jing Chu just let him hold her. These past days were torment for both of them, like being in a hot oil pan.
Jing Chu tried, finally extending her hand to wrap around Chaoyang’s waist.
The couple just embraced and cried together. Han Xiangjun saw this, smiled, and withdrew; they had indeed gotten some useful information, Xiao Wei’s guess was quite right.
