Chapter 612 How did you know?
Yang Han heard his loud voice before he even came in. He said, "Oh dear, why is it you, little one, who opened the door? Where's your sister? Is Grandpa Qin inside?"
Lin Xi was the one who rushed to open the door first. She probably lives here and does nothing all day, so she wanted to find something to do. That's why she rushed to open the door as soon as the doorbell rang.
Lin Xi pointed inside the house, then jogged back to the living room. She was a little scared of strangers, fearing they might be police officers coming to take her away, and also worried about implicating Qiao Xing.
Yang Han saw her run away but didn't say anything. He then called Xiao Lin inside.
Qiao Xing walked over and took the things from his hands, saying, "You've come all this way, why did you bring things?"
Yang Han said with a smile, "It's been so long since I've come, I can't come empty-handed. Besides, I have other things to ask you about."
Qiao Xing was puzzled. What could he possibly have to ask him for advice?
She can't do anything.
Yang Han pulled Xiao Lin in and said mysteriously, "We'll talk about it later, let's go inside first."
Qiao Xing led them in, and Xiao Lin nodded to her as a greeting. Whether it was her imagination or not, Xiao Lin's gaze seemed a little embarrassed.
In Qiao Xing's eyes, Xiao Lin had always been a strong woman, and he had never seen her look so embarrassed before. Qiao Xing seemed to have guessed something for a moment.
Yang Han went to chat with the old man on his own. He was very talkative and wouldn't listen to anything once he entered the room, leaving the old man both amused and exasperated.
Qiao Xing pulled Xiao Lin to sit down next to him and poured her a glass of water.
"Thanks."
Qiao Xing glanced at Yang Han, who was chatting with Grandpa Qin, and asked in a low voice, "Miss Xiao, are you pregnant?"
Xiao Lin was slightly taken aback, then her cheeks flushed, and she lowered her voice, speaking very awkwardly, "How did you know?"
Qiao Xing said, "I guessed it. Yang Han just said she had something to ask me. I thought about it for a long time. You guys are better than me at everything. What could you possibly ask me?"
Xiao Lin held her water glass, looking somewhat flustered. "I didn't want to come, but he insisted on dragging me along. What's there to ask him about? Don't listen to his nonsense."
"I know, he probably saw that you were too busy and didn't want you to be busy with work while pregnant, so he made an excuse to bring you here to relax. He probably didn't really want to ask me anything. This is my first time being pregnant, how would I know anything?"
As she spoke, she thought of Qin Ce, who kept her under his control every day. Even when she went to see Qin Ce, he knew more than she did.
Xiao Lin pursed her lips and subconsciously glanced at Yang Han over there, her expression somewhat complicated.
Qiao Xing stared at her for a while, then asked, "How many months pregnant?"
Xiao Lin snapped out of her reverie and casually replied, "Less than two months."
Qiao Xing was somewhat surprised; they moved quite quickly.
Although the two have been married for quite some time, Xiao Lin still feels a little embarrassed and ashamed when talking about this.
Actually, having children had never been part of her plans. But she couldn't resist Yang Han's pleading, seeing how much he wanted a child, and finally Xiao Lin agreed.
However, she never expected that all sorts of troubles would arise after she actually had a child. Yang Han didn't want her to go to work and hoped that she would stay at home and take good care of herself during her pregnancy.
They even hired a nutritionist to control her diet every day, forbidding her from working overtime or getting up too early.
Xiao Lin now deeply regrets agreeing to have the child because she was momentarily soft-hearted.
Xiao Lin had no one to talk to, and she couldn't bring herself to say these things, so every time she sat there hesitant to speak, she chose to remain silent.
Qiao Xing could tell that she had something on her mind. In Qiao Xing's opinion, her relationship with Xiao Lin was not yet close enough for them to be able to talk about anything, so she didn't ask any further questions.
Yang Han talked to the old man for a long time, but the old man got a little impatient with his babbling and waved his hand like he was shooing away a fly, "Oh, go away, my head hurts, you young people go chat, let this old man rest for a while."
Yang Han asked him worriedly, "What's wrong with you? We haven't seen each other for so long, and you sent me away after we hadn't even exchanged two words. It seems that I haven't been visiting you enough, which has caused our relationship to become distant."
The old man rubbed his forehead and sighed, "Ah, I'm getting old. Let me rest for a while. I need to go inside to take my medicine. You guys have fun."
"Take your medicine? Let me get it for you."
The old man chose to ignore him completely, and every time he tried to talk to him, the old man would launch into a long tirade.
He called Lin Xi over and asked her to accompany him back to his room.
Yang Han watched the old man's retreating figure and sighed with worry. In fact, he could also sense that the old man's spirit was not as good as before.
We used to have such a great time chatting, but now he can't stand it after just a few minutes.
So Yang Han walked over to Qiao Xing and the others, and said with a smile, "How did your chat go? Sister-in-law, you have to pass on your experience to Xiao Lin. She doesn't know anything and doesn't take care of her health and child for a day. I'm about to have a headache."
Qiao Xing glanced at Xiao Lin awkwardly and said sheepishly, "I don't have much experience either."
"How could there not be? Look at you, you don't even go to work anymore, but she's still leaving early and coming home late every day, and she even goes out for social events, sigh..."
Qiao Xing finally understood. It turned out that this guy didn't want Xiao Lin to go to work, so he brought people here to make Xiao Lin learn to be a couch potato at home like her.
To be honest, Qiao Xing had wanted to go to work before, but Xiao Lin was different; Qin Ce wouldn't let her go, so she didn't dare to.
Yang Han told Xiao Lin not to go to work, but Xiao Lin wouldn't listen to him.
Qiao Xing glanced awkwardly at Xiao Lin, unsure of what to say. This was a matter between the couple, and her words could negatively impact their relationship.
So she expressed her embarrassment and cleverly changed the subject, "Didn't you say you came to discuss Xixi's matter with me?"
Yang Han realized what he had done and slapped his forehead. "Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I was just asking what your plans are."
Qiao Xing stared at him for a long time, then said, "Not for now."
"?"
"What do you mean 'not available yet'? You've already done it, didn't you think of a solution beforehand?"
Qiao Xing said, "I'm still waiting for news from the detective, aren't I? Now that Mr. Feng has turned his attention to me, this is no longer a conflict between students, but a contest between us."
"So that's how it is. The detective you found is really slow. You might as well have found me. I can investigate much faster than him."
Qiao Xing chuckled twice. "Yeah, I forgot."
Qiao Xing didn't look for him because she felt that looking for him was no different from looking for Qin Ce, but now that she thinks about it, looking for Yang Xu seems to be no different either.
If she didn't use these connections, she couldn't accomplish anything on her own, all alone.
Thinking about this, Qiao Xing felt that it didn't matter who she contacted.
