"long?"
"long!"
Seeing that she didn't react, Sister Luo raised her voice, trying to get Mo Youyou's attention.
"Mo Youyou!"
"Huh?" She finally snapped out of her daze, looking at Sister Luo with a blank expression.
"Are you alright?" Sister Luo was very worried and regretted it to the extreme. She was afraid that Mo Youyou might not be able to handle it and something might happen to her, then she wouldn't be able to explain herself.
"Oh," she said, realizing what she had just said, her face expressionless, "It's nothing."
Sister Luo was skeptical of the "it's nothing" reply, but her intuition told her that she couldn't continue the conversation unless she wanted to cause trouble for herself.
"Well... Youyou, once you've finished your work, go back and rest. I'll take care of things in the office!" Sister Luo became generous at this moment.
Mo Youyou was indeed uneasy because of her suspicions, but she would never show it in front of her colleagues, otherwise she would just make herself a laughing stock.
Given how much she values her image, she has to put on a brave face in front of outsiders. No matter how big the problem is, she has to go home, close the door, and deal with it slowly.
When Sister Luo tells her to leave at this time, it means she looks down on her, has made up her mind, and believes that she has lost her composure.
Mo Youyou refused to leave, determined to hold her ground.
"It's okay, Sister Luo. I can't keep leaving get off work early every few days. I'll stay a little longer. Anyway, I'll be off work soon." Mo Youyou said stubbornly, pretending to find some work for herself.
She didn't leave until the designated time to leave work.
Liu Dekai got off work a little later than her. When he got home, Mo Youyou was already sitting on the sofa, ready to interrogate him.
"Liu Dekai, come here right now!" Mo Youyou shouted.
Not only did it startle Liu Dekai, who had just arrived home, but it also terrified Zhang Cuihua, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen.
She didn't want to get involved in the young couple's affairs, but she was also very curious, so she listened intently.
"What's wrong now?" Liu Dekai looked completely bewildered, but he still patiently went along with Mo Youyou, since she was about to give birth and absolutely could not be offended. "Who has upset our eldest daughter this time?"
Mo Youyou wasn't buying it today. Heaven knows how embarrassed she was when Sister Luo said those things.
How shameful! So shameful!
"Liu Dekai, don't give me that crap. I'm asking you, did you go to the medical department today?" Mo Youyou's expression was serious, and her tone wasn't very friendly.
“Yes,” Liu Dekai said, puzzled, “I did go, so what?”
"You still dare to ask what happened? People have seen you with Su Yueya, and they say you two are very ambiguous. Every time you go to the medical department, you specifically look for her. Tell me the truth, is the child in Su Yueya's belly yours?!" Mo Youyou shouted.
This was truly a shocking remark, and Liu Dekai's expression changed upon hearing it.
"No, what are you thinking? How could that be? What does the child in her belly have to do with me?"
"What do you mean I keep going to the medical department to see her? I go to the medical department to check on the gunshot wound in my arm. Shouldn't I go there?"
"Also, the person who usually treats me isn't Su Yueya!" Liu Dekai still felt wronged. Su Yueya avoided him like the plague, and the group of military doctors in the medical department were all wary of him. "Today, it was because when I went there, I happened to see many wounded soldiers, and Su Yueya was the only one available, so I had her treat me!"
"There's absolutely nothing ambiguous about it. Stop listening to other people's gossip all day long!"
Liu Dekai's rebuttal was righteous and unambiguous.
After all, he really hadn't done such a thing. Even if he did have some ulterior motives, he never made them public. He could have stubbornly denied it, and no one could have done anything about it.
"Don't overthink it!" Liu Dekai said firmly.
"Bullshit! I think you're just trying to fool me!" Mo Youyou persisted, not believing his explanation at all.
"Well, everyone saw it, and you're still not going to tell me the truth?" Although Mo Youyou was the one who was questioning him, she felt so wronged that she wanted to cry.
She was pregnant, and for Liu Dekai to do such a thing was extremely disrespectful!
"No, I'm just telling the truth!" Liu Dekai protested, feeling wronged.
While wiping away her tears, Mo Youyou shared her analysis with Liu Dekai.
"You were adamant that Su Yueya was pregnant with Lu Zhengjun's child, but the news that Lu Zhengjun is infertile clearly came from the military hospital, there's no doubt about it!"
"I suspect she's carrying a bastard child, but you say Su Yueya wouldn't dare mess around with this. In reality, you're just trying to cover up the fact that you and she are having an affair!"
"The child in Su Yueya's belly is yours. You two secretly got together behind my back! Don't deny it. Can you swear that you've never even had that thought in your heart?"
"What's wrong with you now?" Liu Dekai wanted to coax Mo Youyou, but he couldn't accept such a huge accusation. "Youyou, there's a limit to your unreasonable behavior. You can't just take advantage of being pregnant to frame me like this!"
"What do you mean I framed you? It's clearly you, Liu Dekai, who are disloyal and do all sorts of immoral things!" Mo Youyou became more and more angry as she spoke. She felt that her analysis was correct; that was exactly what happened!
Liu Dekai is just making excuses now; he did something to betray her.
"Mo Youyou, isn't that a bit mean? Ever since you got pregnant, everything at home has been decided by you, and you're still not satisfied? And you still have to gossip about me like those long-tongued women?" Liu Dekai couldn't understand how his simple act of going to the doctor to check on his gunshot wound could have caused such a commotion!
"I'm making fun of you? Liu Dekai, do you have no shame?!" Mo Youyou screamed.
She lost control of her emotions and, without thinking, grabbed whatever was at hand, picked up a fruit plate filled with melon seeds, and threw it at Liu Dekai.
"Bang--"
Liu Dekai dodged the attack, and the fruit plate crashed to the ground and shattered.
That thing is made of glass; it would be quite a shock if it hit you, and you might even get injured and bleed.
He felt that while Mo Youyou was making a fuss, she shouldn't have actually hit him, and he immediately got angry as well.
"You still want to smash me? Mo Youyou, what are you thinking? Did you lose your mind while pregnant? Su Yueya and I are completely innocent, are you never going to stop?!" Liu Dekai shouted. He was tired of playing the subservient role and wanted to get to the bottom of things today.
"Liu Dekai, you still dare to yell at me?" Mo Youyou couldn't believe it, and she stood up abruptly.
Simply smashing things with objects isn't enough; you have to hit them with your own hands.
"Oh dear, Youyou, you two should talk things out, you can't resort to violence!" Seeing this, Zhang Cuihua couldn't sit still and rushed over from the kitchen to take sides, actually because she was worried that her son would be taken advantage of.
However, before Mo Youyou could rush over, she had just stood up and taken two steps toward Liu Dekai—
