In the front hall of the Huo family’s old mansion.

After Tang Yucai arranged all the guests, she saw Ruan Peiting coming back from the backyard from afar.

Ruan Peiting placed her hands in front of her and stood there obediently. There was a look of hesitation on her face.

Tang Yucai glanced at her and instructed the servants to clean up the front hall. Then, she walked out of the room.

“What’s wrong? There are many mosquitoes at night. Why are you standing here alone to feed them?”

Tang Yucai strode to Ruan Peiting’s side and reached out her hands to touch her arms. She gently touched them and frowned slightly. She sounded like an elder caring for a junior.

Ruan Peiting smiled at her and shook her head. “No, the backyard is very clean. There won’t be mosquitoes.”

Although the Huo family’s old mansion was located halfway up the mountain and there were many flowers and trees in the backyard, they were well maintained. Not to mention mosquitoes, there was not even a single bug.

Ruan Peiting looked conflicted and looked at Tang Yucai hesitantly.

The emotions in her eyes were too obvious and were captured by Tang Yucai in an instant.

Tang Yucai then held her hand.

“It just so happens that you’re here. Come with me for a walk. I haven’t digested anything tonight, so let’s go for a walk for digestion.”

“Alright.”

Ruan Peiting agreed cooperatively.

The two of them chatted aimlessly as they walked toward the backyard.

The Huo family’s old mansion was very large. There was even an observation deck at the back of the mountain. From there, they could overlook most of Rong City’s scenery.

It was almost midnight, and the temperature on the mountain had dropped.

When Tang Yucai and Ruan Peiting walked up to the observation deck, Ruan Peiting put her shawl on Tang Yucai’s shoulder and said, “It’s chilly on the mountain at night.”

Tang Yucai smiled at her and pulled her hand off her shoulder. She held her hands tightly.

“You are so considerate. You’re such a well-behaved and sensible person, but it’s a pity..”

Tang Yucai did not finish her sentence.

However, her hesitant appearance was the most heart-wrenching.

Ruan Peiting averted her gaze, and a complicated emotion flashed in her eyes.

The next second, she had already looked at the scenery below the observation deck, with her red lips slightly pursed.

“Oh right, you seemed to want to say something to me just now. Now that there’s no one here, you can say it.”

Tang Yucai didn’t continue to talk about the previous matter.

However, the topic changed and she returned to the matter that Ruan Peiting was worried about earlier.

However, when Ruan Peiting heard this, she pursed her lips again and let go of Tang Yucai’s hand. She turned around and held onto the handrail at the side.

“Madam, there’s something that might not be good for me to say, but it concerns the entire Huo family’s face. I hesitated for a night before deciding to tell you.”

Tang Yucai frowned. “Since it’s related to the Huo Family, you don’t have to hide it from me. Just say it.”

“That Miss Song, she…”

In the corner of the deck, Huo Jiao, who dozed off, was woken up by the voices outside.

She rubbed her eyes, and a trace of impatience still hung on her lovely face.

However, before she could vent her frustration, she heard a voice that sounded vaguely like her mother’s, mixed in with the others.

Huo Jiao rubbed her eyes as she sat up from her seat and stretched her neck to look outside.

Because of the distance and the lighting, the people outside did not notice her sitting in the corner.

“I’m sure that the woman you saw coming out of the hospital with you that day was Miss Song. However, she came out from the obstetrics department, which made people think a lot. Previously, Miss An had also been involved in rumors. And now, Miss Song…”

“If it was just my mistake, it would have been fine. However, after carefully recalling and identifying, it was indeed Miss Song. I was worried, so I asked a friend to investigate at night. The results were truly unbelievable.”

“Just tell me straight.”

Tang Yucai was expressionless. Ruan Peiting looked at her and couldn’t figure out what she was thinking.

She could only follow her own words and continue, “Miss Song is already about two months pregnant. At that time, Ah Cen had just returned from abroad and was not familiar with Miss Song at all. How is that possible?”
