Seeing her like this, Gu Bei asked worriedly, "Do you know him?"

“I know both the man and the woman. The man is someone I grew up with. He saved me from some small-time thugs when I was young. I was so young back then that I almost offered myself to him,” Lin Wanwan said, her eyes darting around. “The woman is Lu Feng’s crazy pursuer. She used to talk bad about me to my mother-in-law. Lu Feng and I almost didn’t get married because of her.”

“I’ll have someone investigate. What they were talking about is probably about you.”

Lin Wanwan shrugged and said, "Trouble comes out of nowhere when you're just sitting at home."

Seeing her nonchalant attitude, Gu Bei shook his head helplessly, "You should be more careful. That woman didn't mean any harm when she spoke. Don't act like you don't care. You're pregnant."

Bai Ying also worriedly said, "Let's go back first and wait until Brother Gu Bei has found out the truth before we talk about it."

"I can't just stay home all the time because of them, can I?" Lin Wanwan said, dissatisfied.

Gu Bei really couldn't do anything with her. He poked her forehead and said, "I didn't tell you not to go out. Wait until I find out the truth before we talk. Where's Lu Feng? Why didn't he come with you when you went out?"

"I don't know where they went, and they didn't tell me."

"Let's go, I'll take you back first. I'm worried about you, those two definitely weren't holding back."

"Let's go to Grandma's house. My mom took Tuanzi there, and I'm going to mooch a meal."

Lin Wanwan smiled at him, "It would be even better if you could take us to buy a roast duck. I'm so hungry for it. I was originally going to go shopping with Bai Ying to eat it."

Gu Bei chuckled and looked down, "I see you eat quite a lot too, where did all that weight go?"

“You’re hiding it under your clothes. You’ll see when the weather gets warmer. I’ve definitely gained a lot of weight,” Lin Wanwan said with a conflicted look. “Maybe I shouldn’t eat it at all, so I don’t get fat.”

Bai Ying quickly took her hand and said, "You're not fat. Don't try to lose weight recklessly. Grandma will definitely scold you if she finds out."

Just as the group was about to leave, Lin Wanwan turned her head and saw a long-haired beauty running over, calling out Gu Bei's name as she ran.

Lin Wanwan stared at Gu Bei with gossipy eyes. Seeing Gu Bei's helpless expression, Lin Wanwan asked softly, "Don't you like it?"

Gu Bei shook his head helplessly, "What do we like? We're not on the same wavelength."

Lin Wanwan understood; no wonder they met at the mall.

As Lin Wanwan reached out and took Gu Bei's arm, she clearly saw the beautiful woman pause for a moment and slow down as she walked over.

"Gu Bei, why did you leave halfway? Your friends are all looking for you."

Gu Bei smiled faintly at her, "It's nothing. They couldn't find me, so they went back. I ran into my family, so I'm leaving now."

"Hey, didn't you promise to go shopping with me?"

Gu Bei said helplessly, "I had no idea I was coming out with you guys before I came out. Sorry, I have other things to do."

Lin Wanwan bit her lip as she looked at the beautiful woman in front of her, and mustered up her courage to ask, "Aren't you going to introduce me?"

Gu Bei looked down and met Lin Wanwan's gaze. Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "I was just about to ask that too. Why don't you introduce this beautiful lady? Your sister and I came out shopping, and you went shopping with someone else?"

Bai Ying looked left and right as if she understood what was going on. She stood next to Lin Wanwan without saying a word, curiously observing the person in front of her.

"Don't wrong me. My roommates invited me out. I didn't know there were other people around."

Lin Wanwan reached out to greet the person in front of her, "Hello, my name is Lin Wanwan, you are so beautiful, sister."

The person in front of her seemed to suddenly gain confidence, reaching up to tuck a stray hair behind her ear before speaking leisurely, "Hello, my name is Mu Tingting," and exchanging hands with Lin Wanwan.

"Sister, you drank a soldier to death? Doesn't seem like it. Is she your classmate?" Lin Wanwan shook Gu Bei's arm.

Mu Tingting immediately replied, "No, we have mutual friends. I'm from Peking University."

"Wow, that's amazing!" Lin Wanwan exclaimed with a mixture of envy and admiration. "I've never been to Peking University. Isn't it beautiful?"

“It’s very beautiful, you can come and visit if you have the chance, but…” Mu Tingting said apologetically, “Our school seems to be quite strict, and outsiders are not allowed to come in.”

Lin Wanwan looked regretful. "Really? I also wanted to see Weiming Lake."

Seeing her envious look, Mu Tingting's arrogance and confidence resurfaced. "Which school do you go to? We can hang out sometime."

Lin Wanwan looked embarrassed, and Mu Tingting assumed she attended some second-rate school.

"I just took the college entrance exam this year, and I didn't do very well."

Mu Tingting, with an understanding demeanor, comforted her, "It's okay. Even if the school isn't great, it's still university. If it doesn't work out, you can always retake the exam."

Lin Wanwan found her arrogant attitude amusing, and while speaking, she kept throwing flirtatious glances at Gu Bei.

"Ah, I don't need to study anymore. I got into my dream university. Welcome to Renmin University of China, sister. Our school is quite beautiful, but I don't know if outsiders are allowed in."

Gu Bei lowered his head to suppress his laughter, but only slightly raised the corners of his mouth. He reached out and patted her head, signaling her to stop.

But Mu Tingting saw it differently; she had never seen Gu Bei be so intimate with anyone before.

"Let's go home. Mom said she'll call today. Grandma is waiting for us to come home for dinner."

Upon hearing this, Mu Tingting's expression changed immediately. Had they already met each other's parents? She hadn't heard that Gu Bei was already married.

Gu Beichong nodded to Mu Tingting and said, "Then we'll be going now."

He led Bai Ying and Lin Wanwan toward the door.

Once outside, Bai Ying finally dared to laugh out loud. "That was hilarious! Did you see that person's expression? You're driving him crazy!"

Lin Wanwan said helplessly, "I didn't say I was his girlfriend. I only said a few words. She's just overthinking things and making up all that."

She turned to Gu Bei and said in a coquettish tone, "Brother, I've helped you so much, how are you going to thank me?"

Gu Bei patted her head and said, "I'll treat you to roast duck."

"You're so stingy. You were just about to take us to buy roast duck."

Bai Ying, linking arms with Gu Bei, said, "My brother isn't stingy at all."

Lin Wanwan turned her head and glared at her, "What do you mean 'your brother'? This is my brother!!"

The group walked and talked, unaware that Yin Meiyue was hiding in a corner.

Yin Meiyue watched from afar, clenching her fists. "That bitch!! One day, you'll fall into my hands."

When Lin Wanwan arrived at the Xu family's house, Song Lanzhi was playing with Qian Qian while holding Tuanzi.

"Mom, I'm here!!!"

Song Lanzhi sighed helplessly, then chuckled and rubbed her forehead. "I've already hidden here, why did you still chase after me?"

Lin Wanwan didn't care and went over to hug her, saying, "You haven't been home for three days. Yuanyuan and I miss you so much."

Yuanyuan is the nickname of the baby in Lin Wanwan's belly. It was chosen by her and Lu Feng. Combined with Tuanzi, it means "reunion".

"Oh dear, look what you've done to my yard! Out of sight, out of mind."
