Zhang Yingnan frowned and asked suspiciously, "Then how did you know I was in the dorm? You couldn't have guessed it for no reason, could you?"

Tian Lin quickly replied, "Wang Hu told me all of this! He said he saw your bed curtain move and then guessed that there must be someone inside."

Hearing this, Zhang Yingnan's face darkened further, and she said irritably, "So you two, you found me in the dorm and didn't even leave, you had to keep making a fuss until noon! What exactly do you want?"

Tian Lin hurriedly explained, "It really wasn't intentional! Wang Hu said he only noticed your bed curtains moving around noon. Luckily, he only noticed it at that time; if he had noticed it earlier, he probably would have bothered me all day! But this time, I really have to thank you, my good friend. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to walk tonight!" As she spoke, Tian Lin showed an expression of relief.

Zhang Yingnan was utterly speechless. She sighed inwardly, wondering how that once quiet and gentle girl had become like this, blurting out everything without a care in the world and showing no shame whatsoever.

Just then, upon learning that Tian Lin had safely returned to school, and having nothing else to attend to, Wang Hu felt relieved and began his journey home. At this moment, he was sitting on the high-speed train bound for Ningbo, gazing at the rapidly passing scenery outside the window, his thoughts drifting away...

When Wang Hu set foot on Ningbo again, he never imagined he would face such a huge situation. He might have been kept in the dark before, but now the truth came flooding in—his women were all getting pregnant one after another.

First, Li Wanting was confirmed to be nearly a month pregnant. Then, Wu Xinyi also became pregnant! Faced with this sudden turn of events, Wang Hu has been incredibly busy these past few days. He's either taking one woman to the hospital for prenatal checkups or accompanying the other woman to various departments. Coincidentally, they always choose the same hospital, to the point that the obstetricians and gynecologists look at Wang Hu with somewhat strange expressions.

However, unlike others, these expectant mothers were overjoyed. Especially Wu Xinyi, who had initially been anxious, worried that Wang Hu would force her to abort the child. But when she witnessed Wang Hu's delighted expression and his meticulous care and tenderness towards her, all her worries vanished instantly.

Although Wang Hu would not stay overnight at Wu Xinyi's place, this genuine care was something she had never felt before.

Because of this, Wu Xinyi is no longer as anxious and depressed as she used to be; instead, she has a cheerful and open-minded attitude. Now, her face is always filled with a happy smile, and she seems to radiate a brand new glow.

The peaceful days passed by slowly, but who could have predicted that when Liu Sandao learned of Wang Hu's return, he would hatch all sorts of wicked schemes? At this time, his financial situation was in dire straits, and the funding gap seemed like a bottomless pit that could not be filled!

By the time the New Year came, Liu Sandao had finally recovered, but unexpectedly, he showed no remorse and once again embarked on that tempting and dangerous gambling path.

This time, he went all out, betting huge sums of money, and even rented out his own house without hesitation, leaving his family of three to live in a rented, shabby room.

Faced with her husband's absurd behavior, Zhang Lirong finally could not bear it any longer, completely cut off all communication with Liu Sandao, and resolutely returned to her parents' home.

Even so, the stubborn Liu Sandao still harbored illusions, attempting to persuade Zhang Lirong to accept the investment offer from Wang Hu. So, disregarding his pride, he brazenly went to her door.

To his surprise, Zhang Lirong never returned home. Left with no other option, Liu Sandao inquired about her whereabouts from Zhang Lirong's mother. However, the reply he received left him speechless—Zhang Lirong's mother looked puzzled and said, "Lirong has been staying at home the whole time. I just went to see her yesterday." It turned out that Zhang Lirong, fearing her mother would worry about her troubles, hadn't revealed Liu Sandao's gambling addiction.

Ever since Liu Sandao gambled away the house that held countless memories, Zhang Lirong's heart was filled with despair and utter hopelessness towards the man she once deeply loved. Perhaps a sliver of affection remained in the past, but now, all feelings had vanished completely!
