While shopping, Fu Qingyan was attentive and considerate, thinking of everything for her along the way.
Passing by a lingerie store, Fu Qingyan insisted on dragging her inside to take a look.
"Sister-in-law, this brand is very high-end in the UK! Not only are the designs great, but the fabrics are also incredibly comfortable! Shall we come in and try some on?"
"Qingyan, I'm a little tired," Jiang Can declined. "Xiaofan will pick me up in a bit. I'm not going shopping anymore. I'll wait for her here."
"Huh?" Fu Qingyan looked disappointed. "Sister-in-law, I asked you to go shopping, and you still brought Li Xiaofan along. Does that mean you don't trust me?"
"Don't overthink it, I just..."
"I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I didn't do a good enough job."
Fu Qingyan lowered her head. Jiang Can felt a little reluctant. Considering that there were still more than ten minutes before Li Xiaofan arrived, she decided to go inside and take a look.
Fu Qingyan was overjoyed and helped Jiang Can walk inside.
She helped Jiang Can pick out several maternity bras, made of soft and comfortable fabric, thoughtfully designed for pregnant women, and both beautiful and practical.
"Sister-in-law, you go and give it a try, it's all on me!"
"I can't accept this."
"It's only right that I give my sister-in-law a gift!" Fu Qingyan smiled innocently and lively.
Jiang Can was momentarily dazed, thinking of Huo Zhixin, who was far away in Yangcheng.
She composed herself, took a deep breath, and waved with a smile.
As the months progressed, her bust size increased significantly, and she definitely needed a few bras like these.
But she couldn't let Fu Qingyan pay; she didn't want to owe him that kind of favor.
Holding the underwear, Jiang Can walked into the VIP fitting room led by the sales assistant.
However, just as she took off her top and hadn't even changed her underwear, Fu Qingyan burst in!
"Sister-in-law, I found a few more like this, you..."
"Ah!" Jiang Can was startled and quickly covered herself with her hands.
But Fu Qingyan stood still, the fitting room door wide open, her eyes fixed on Jiang Can's stomach.
"Sister-in-law, you..."
Jiang Can's heart was pounding.
She instinctively tried to cover her stomach, but it was no use. She saw the unsightly lines on her stomach in the mirror, and in that instant, it felt as if something exploded right next to her ear.
"Sister-in-law!" Fu Qingyan's lips curled into a barely perceptible, chilling smile. "What happened? Is your stomach... alright?"
"It's nothing, please leave!" Jiang Can's expression changed, and her voice became stern.
Fu Qingyan had been waiting for this moment.
Sun Meifen had already visited the hospital where Jiang Can regularly had her prenatal checkups and indirectly learned that Jiang Can had developed stretch marks.
She told Fu Qingyan that women develop these marks after childbirth, and many men would dislike their wives after seeing them.
So she wanted Fu Qingyan to make this matter known to everyone!
“Daughter, I bet you, Jiang Can wouldn’t dare tell your cousin about this! Ha, men are all visual creatures. No matter how passionately they loved each other before, the moment they see this on a woman, they’re disgusted, how can they still love her?”
Fu Qingyan curled her lips smugly, snatched all of Jiang Can's clothes first, and deliberately said loudly:
"Sister-in-law, what's that on your body? Why are there so many lines on your stomach?"
"Give me back my clothes!" Jiang Can shouted. "Get out!"
Their voices attracted several sales assistants, who thought something had happened and hurried over, only to see the stretch marks on Jiang Can's stomach.
"Sister-in-law, it's alright!" Fu Qingyan stepped forward, grabbed her wrist, and pried it open forcefully. "I picked out a few more for you, why don't you try them on too!"
"Let me go!"
Jiang Can pushed her hard, but was afraid of hurting the child if she used too much force.
The moment their eyes met, she saw the sinister cunning in the woman's eyes!
She felt isolated and helpless; at that moment, she was no different from being stripped naked and standing in front of everyone.
"Fu Qingyan, you..."
"Sister-in-law, you're not planning to just run away like this, are you?" Fu Qingyan raised an eyebrow and sneered. "If my cousin sees these disgusting marks, I wonder what he'll think?"
"Let go!" Jiang Can screamed.
Suddenly, a figure flashed by and shoved them apart! Jiang Can lost her footing and almost lost her balance, but she didn't fall. Instead, she leaned against a delicate and warm little body.
"Don't be afraid, young mistress, I'm here!"
Li Xiaofan took off his coat and draped it over Jiang Can, his angry gaze like two knives slashing fiercely at Fu Qingyan.
"Miss Fu, what do you want to do?"
Fu Qingyan was knocked aside by the sudden force and unfortunately crashed into the wall, her head buzzing.
"You!" She recognized Li Xiaofan and was instantly enraged. "I'm taking my sister-in-law shopping, what business is it of yours?"
"Whether you really want to go shopping or have some other scheme, you know the answer in your heart!"
Li Xiaofan was too lazy to waste words with her. If eyes could kill, Fu Qingyan would have died ten thousand times over.
However, although her eyesight wasn't that powerful, the heavily armed bodyguards following behind her were more than enough to take care of Fu Qingyan on the spot!
Li Xiaofan pushed Jiang Can into the dressing room, closed the door tightly, and then gave an order. Dozens of men in black rushed out from all directions of the mall and surrounded the small shop!
Fu Qingyan panicked, looked around, and looked at Li Xiaofan in a trembling voice: "What...what are you doing?"
"Miss Fu, are you scared now?" Li Xiaofan sneered. "When you were bullying our young mistress earlier, did you ever think that Master Huo's men could riddle you with bullets?"
