After the Substitute Marriage, I Discovered My Husband is a Hidden Tycoon

I married a petty hooligan in place of my sister, living a life of poverty. Who knew that my husband would suddenly transform into a mysteriously powerful and influential tycoon?

Jiang Can co...

Chapter 461 Do you really think I'm just pregnant and stupid for three years?

“Sir,” the butler beside Fu Chengwei told him, “this young master Yin Cheng is the heir of the Yin family of Nanyang, a leading family in medicine and pharmaceuticals. Not to mention in Nanyang, their level of expertise is far ahead of others in the world.”

Fu Chengwei was silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered: "Oh, I know! My medicine cabinet at home! There are several bottles of commonly used medicines in the medicine cabinet, all labeled Yin's Pharmaceutical!"

"This is the place!"

Fu Chengwei was overjoyed, thinking he had found a savior. He grabbed Jiang Can's hand and said, "Can Can, your brother can really help Mei Fen? Um... Mei Fen used to always cause you trouble. I'd like to apologize to you on her behalf, okay?"

As he spoke, Fu Chengwei stood at attention and bowed deeply.

When he was a child, he fell off a horse and not only damaged his head but also his nerves, causing him to make faces whenever he speaks.

But when Jiang Can saw his anxious look, she suddenly felt a pang of sadness and felt more pity for him.

There's nothing wrong with loving someone; what's wrong is that the person isn't worth loving them at all.

"Uncle, don't worry," Jiang Can said softly. "Doctors are compassionate, and my brother is an excellent doctor. He will definitely give Aunt a thorough examination."

"Hehe, hehe..."

Fu Chengwei laughed without a care in the world.

However, Huo Zhixing and Jiang Can exchanged a glance, both feeling a little sad.

On the way back, the car drove smoothly. After a whole night of driving, the darkness slowly receded, and a ray of golden dawn appeared on the horizon.

Jiang Can and Huo Zhixing sat in the back row, her little head resting on his shoulder.

He gently embraced her, saying, "Sleep for a while if you want, I'll wake you up when we get home."

Jiang Can shook her head.

She wasn't sleepy at all, but the thought of Fu Chengwei's silly appearance made her feel uneasy.

“Zhixing,” she said softly, “are we doing this…right?”

Huo Zhixing was slightly taken aback, remained silent for a moment, and then gently comforted him, "There's nothing wrong with it. Uncle will have to face this reality sooner or later."

"But seeing how good he is to his aunt and how much he looks forward to this child... I really feel a little guilty."

"Wife, don't be foolish!" Huo Zhixing looked down into her eyes. "If we don't expose all this and cover it up, Sun Meifen will not only kill my uncle, but also implicate the entire Fu family!"

Jiang Can leaned closer to him.

I remember after Xiaocheng first gave someone acupuncture, I video-chatted with her and she talked about how that person had severe meridian blockage and had to be treated with strong needles, but the process would be extremely painful.

Xiao Cheng said, "It was unavoidable. He had no choice but to endure it in order to save his life."

Jiang Can closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Her uncle's pain was understandable. She really shouldn't have been so sentimental.

"Wife, don't think about it anymore," Huo Zhixing said in a low voice. "Your health is more important than anything else."

"Um."

As she spoke, Jiang Can became a little sleepy. She closed her eyes and chuckled softly, "I thought I would stay away from Sun Meifen during this time to avoid getting into trouble, but I didn't expect to get involved anyway."

“We’re not really involved,” Huo Zhixing chuckled. “At least we weren’t there when she fell into the pool. And the fact that the baby survived is perhaps a blessing in disguise.”

"Um?"

"Otherwise...wouldn't there be no way to prove it when the dead are dead?"

Jiang Can smiled and nodded.

She fell into a deep sleep soon after. Huo Zhixing covered her with his coat and told the driver not to stop and to keep driving smoothly.

The driver was a little confused: "Young master, where are we going?"

"Whatever." Huo Zhixing didn't care, as long as they didn't stop. If they stopped, the car would jolt, which would definitely disturb his precious wife's sleep.

The driver had no choice but to drive in circles along the flat main road until the tank of gas was almost empty before he could find a gas station nearby.

As soon as the car stopped, Jiang Can woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw that it was already broad daylight, but they still hadn't arrived home. She couldn't help but wonder, "What's going on?"

"Young Madam, you're asleep. Young Master, you're not allowed to stop!" the driver said with a smile.

Jiang Can was taken aback. "How long have I been asleep?"

"Um... the time it takes to fill a tank of oil."

Jiang Can was surprised and looked up to see the man beside her gazing at her with a doting expression.

"Honey, did you sleep well?"

"Hmm!" Jiang Can rubbed her hair, feeling refreshed after waking up naturally.

"Honey, this tank of gas isn't cheap!"

"oh."

"So..." the man said seriously, "the allowance you give me isn't enough, I can't add this much."

Jiang Can thought about it and agreed. This luxury car had high-end features and used good quality fuel; it was in a completely different league from that 100,000 yuan commuter car.

She took the phone and transferred three thousand yuan to him directly.

Huo Zhixing's heart skipped a beat, but he glanced at the account information without changing his expression and calmly said, "Not enough."

"Hmm? How much do you want?"

Huo Zhixing was very serious as he calculated, "This car is a limited edition, and the fuel tank is large, so all the costs are high... Filling up this tank will cost at least five thousand!"

Jiang Can frowned, finding it a bit far-fetched that a tank of gas would cost five thousand yuan. Just then, the driver finished filling up the tank and got back in the car, smiling honestly, "Young Madam, you don't need that much. I just filled up and it only cost five hundred..."

Before he could finish speaking, the driver caught a glimpse of Huo Zhixing's face, a face so contorted it seemed to ooze ink...

"Um, young mistress, I... I don't know anything! My Chinese isn't good, I didn't understand what you were saying!"

The driver stepped on the gas and immediately sped home!

"Huo Zhixing! Do you really think I'm stupid for three years after pregnancy?"

"No, no! Honey, I'm stupid, I'm just prematurely aged!"

...

Yin Cheng arrived at the hospital and saw Sun Meifen lying in the ward through the glass window.

He had already read through this person's medical records and knew them by heart, so he could deal with any complications that might arise during the examination.

"Can we do a DNA test?" Jiang Can asked him.

“No problem.” Yin Cheng said confidently, “She is already ten weeks pregnant, and we can obtain a DNA sample of the fetus through chorionic villus sampling, which will then determine who the medical father is.”

“But…” Jiang Can hesitated, “My aunt probably won’t let anyone get close to her.”

“That’s easy to solve too.” Yin Cheng chuckled and took out a silver needle. “As long as we put her to sleep, we can get the sample.”

Huo Zhixing nodded. Not long after, Yin Cheng, disguised as a doctor, entered the ward as planned. Sun Meifen didn't recognize him, and upon seeing him, she muttered, "Can such a young doctor be trusted?" before turning her head away.

Yin Cheng seized the opportunity and gently inserted a needle behind her ear. Sun Meifen's eyelids soon drooped, and she fell into a deep sleep.

Another OB-GYN came in and, with the assistance of several nurses, successfully obtained a DNA sample.

Yin Cheng carefully put it away and sent it to the laboratory.
