Jiang Ranran's company has just received a big order. Due to the heavy workload, Jiang Ranran basically works overtime with the people in the company every day. Sometimes he gets home in the early morning.

I often have to go out before dawn.

The three children were unhappy to see how busy their mother was. For several days, their mother refused to play with them.

However, the children were very sensible. After Jiang Ranran came back in the evening, they suddenly took out a cake they had made and placed it in front of Jiang Ranran.

"Mom, have you been particularly busy these days? Look, this is the new cake we learned to make for you!" Sanbao said.

"Yes, happy birthday, Mom!" Dabao also said.

Only then did Jiang Ranran realize that today was actually her birthday.

Jiang Ranran was usually too busy to take care of these things. Now that she was suddenly remembered by her three children and Gu Tingchen, she was extremely touched.

"You're still waiting for me here in the middle of the night." Jiang Ranran's eyes sparkled.

Gu Tingchen walked over and said with a smile: "I don't know how these three children knew your birthday. They started working on it after you left early in the morning, and now they have finally made it. Come and try it and see if it tastes good."

Jiang Ranran naturally took a big bite out of courtesy and immediately praised, "It's delicious! This is the best birthday present Mom has ever received."

The family was having a great time in the villa, and the stars outside against the moonlight seemed particularly gentle.

The next day, Gu Tingchen sent his spy who was following Chen Nian to reply, "Boss, Chen Nian seems to be pregnant. I've noticed that she's been vomiting a lot these past two days, and she keeps going to the hospital for no reason."

Gu Tingchen frowned, a little confused.

Is Chen Nian really pregnant? Is this Song Chao's child?

"Are you sure? Do you have any evidence?" Gu Tingchen said.

"There is no evidence yet, but my wife showed the same symptoms as Chen Nian when she was pregnant before. I think this could be the case?" The subordinates speculated.

Of course, in the absence of evidence, these are just guesses. As to whether they are true or not, it still requires human judgment.

After learning about this situation, Gu Tingchen asked his men to go out and continue to keep an eye on Chen Nian.

To be honest, Gu Tingchen was also a little surprised. Logically speaking, if Chen Nian was really pregnant, the child should not be Song Chao's, after all, Song Chao was already dead.

But what is going on?

Unable to suppress the doubts in his heart, Gu Tingchen took the opportunity to meet Chen Nian by chance and walked up to Chen Nian.

"You look very bad recently. What's wrong? Are you sick? If you are sick, you can take some leave first. I have other nannies at home." Gu Tingchen said coldly.

While speaking, Gu Tingchen was observing Chen Nian, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong with his expression.

Chen Nian smiled and said, "No, no need to ask for leave."

Time is very important to Chen Nian now. She must seize every minute and every second with Jiang Ranran so that she can better investigate the clues she wants to find.

"But I noticed you were retching a lot in recent days. Do you want to go to the hospital for a check-up?" Gu Tingchen said.

Gu Tingchen had no expression on his face when he spoke. Although his words were concerned, they were obviously tentative.

Chen Nian was secretly annoyed, but she didn't show it on her face. "No, I went to the doctor before, and he said it was a stomach problem. It's not a big problem and it will be fine in a couple of days."

Gu Tingchen still didn't believe it. "Don't say it's not a big deal. Let's get someone to check you out. I happen to know a doctor. Let him..."

When Chen Nian heard Gu Tingchen say he wanted to examine her, she immediately panicked.

If it is really discovered that Chen Nian is pregnant, then everything will be impossible to hide. Even if Chen Nian can escape unscathed, it will not be easy for her to lurk around Jiang Ranran again.

Chen Nian quickly said, "No...it's okay, no need, no need. I've already seen a doctor, so I won't bother you. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Chen Nian fled from Gu Tingchen's sight in a hurry, as if she was running away.

In the next few days, in order to prevent Gu Tingchen from getting suspicious, no matter how nauseous Chen Nian felt, she had to force herself not to vomit.

Of course she could see that Gu Tingchen did it on purpose, and she felt a lot more malice towards him.

After several days of stubborn persistence, Chen Nian's body couldn't take it anymore. Her face gradually turned pale and she became weak.

Seeing such a big change in herself, Chen Nian couldn't bear it anymore and began to prepare for revenge on Gu Tingchen.

She wanted to see if Gu Tingchen could defend against her.

Unable to do anything to Gu Tingchen openly, Chen Nian had no choice but to find Mrs. Gu.

Mrs. Gu has always been at odds with Jiang Ranran. If Chen Nian could join forces with Mrs. Gu, they would definitely be able to cause some harm to Jiang Ranran. If something happened to Jiang Ranran, Gu Tingchen would naturally be exposed.

Chen Nian found Mrs. Gu that night.

"Mrs. Gu, you saved me some time ago. Thank you so much. I'm here to thank you." Chen Nian said.

Mrs. Gu looked at Chen Nian, but her face was not very happy.

Last time, Chen Nian accused Mrs. Gu in front of the old man. The money spent on Chen Nian was all paid by Mrs. Gu, so naturally Mrs. Gu would not like Chen Nian very much.

"That's really not necessary. I'd be thankful if you had time to pay me back the money you owe me." Mrs. Gu sneered.

Mrs. Gu just thought that Chen Nian was from Jiang Ranran's side and that Chen Nian came to her to act pitiful, so she naturally didn't have a good face towards Chen Nian.

Chen Nian quickly explained, "Don't worry, Madam. I will pay you back the money I owe you sooner or later. But as you can see, I really don't have the ability to do so right now."

Mrs. Gu also knew that she would definitely not get the money from Chen Nian now, so she just said it casually and looked at Chen Nian coldly, "Then why did you come to me?"

"Mrs. Gu, you must hate Jiang Ranran too, right? If it weren't for Jiang Ranran, my son wouldn't have died. I want to join forces with you to deal with Jiang Ranran." Chen Nian said directly.

The long time she spent at Jiang Ranran's house was not in vain. Chen Nian quickly realized that the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had reached the point where they were incompatible.

So even if Chen Nian openly told Mrs. Gu about his thoughts, he was not worried that Mrs. Gu would complain to Jiang Ranran.

Madam Gu was completely surprised. "Hasn't Jiang Ranran been helping you all along? Are you willing to deal with Jiang Ranran?"

Mrs. Gu was obviously still a little wary of Chen Nian.
