Chapter 295 Evil Intentions
In the car, Xiao Jinchen pursed his lips and asked, "Dad, why did grandpa and grandma suddenly notify us to come over for dinner? Is there something you want to say?"
Ever since the last incident, the old couple hadn't let him go. He was also a proud person, so he had been holding back and not showing weakness.
Mu Qinglian smiled happily, "It's true. Your grandfather just found out that Xinyue is pregnant and he's very happy!"
"My sister-in-law is pregnant?" Guo Lingyue clenched her fists tightly, bit her lips, and tried her best to look calm.
In fact, her heart was in turmoil. She and Xiao Jinchen had been married for five or six years before she got pregnant. How could that woman get pregnant right after she got married? If she gave birth to a son, she would have no place in this family. No, she had to find a way.
Guo Lingyue's mind started to work frantically.
Mu Qinglian was so happy that she didn't notice anything unusual about her. She nodded continuously, "I found out during my honeymoon. After I knew I was pregnant, I came back early. I have been staying at home to take care of the baby. Now I am almost four months pregnant."
Guo Lingyue's expression became increasingly ugly, and she couldn't even maintain her smile.
Xiao Jinchen said calmly: "How does mom know so clearly?"
Mu Qinglian's face froze. She thought about the bad relationship between her eldest son and her youngest son. If the eldest son and his wife knew that she often visited her youngest daughter-in-law, they would definitely be unhappy. So she explained vaguely, "Your grandmother knew it from the beginning. Just ask her."
Xiao Jinchen didn't say anything more.
The group arrived at the old house.
No matter how dissatisfied Xiao Jinchen was, he still had to call for help when he saw the two old people.
Guo Lingyue was absent-minded because of Chen Xinyue's pregnancy. Plus, she knew that the two old people didn't like her, so she wasn't as quick as before when she called people. She seemed dull and timid.
Old Madam Xiao saw it but didn't say anything.
After a while, He Xue and his wife also arrived.
The two of them brought a lot of bags and looked around as soon as they entered the door, "Mom, sister-in-law, where is Xinyue?"
"I told them to drive slower and they'll be there in a while." Old Madam Xiao said with a smile.
He Xue immediately went over and sat down, complaining, "Mom, you guys are awesome! You kept this a secret and only informed us now. If you had told us earlier, I could have gotten Xinyue some rare things to replenish her body."
"It's not too late now!" Old Madam Xiao joked.
Guo Lingyue saw the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talking and laughing, and she almost picked her fingernails off.
Thinking back to when she was pregnant, she had announced it to everyone, but He Xue didn't even give her any precious gifts, not to mention any gestures. What was the meaning of saying such things in front of her now? Was she deliberately trying to embarrass her?
She glanced at Mu Qinglian and saw that she was laughing along with her. She had no intention of comforting her. Why was this happening? Could it be that she had moved out for so long that her mother-in-law's feelings for her had faded?
This discovery made Guo Lingyue even more panicked.
Just at this moment, Xiao Jinlin came with Chen Xinyue.
Today, Chen Xinyue was wearing flat, non-slip white leather shoes, a comfortable and high-end long skirt, and her jet-black hair was neatly tied behind her head. Because of her pregnancy, she did not wear any makeup, and her bare face made her skin look even more delicate and smooth.
She exudes a gentle maternal aura, and the elders will like her at first sight.
Mu Qinglian happily walked over and pulled Chen Xinyue to sit down. She started chatting casually and asked, "Did you get up late this morning?"
Chen Xinyue nodded honestly, "I slept until ten o'clock, and only got up when my aunt called me."
Mu Qinglian shook her head helplessly, "Breakfast is over, have you eaten the bird's nest porridge?"
Chen Xinyue continued to nod, "It's a little fishy, but I asked my aunt to add milk to stew it, and it tastes pretty good."
"You can also add some maltose to adjust the flavor," Mu Qinglian suggested.
The two of them were so natural and casual with each other, which made Guo Lingyue's eyes burst into tears. Xiao Jinchen was also inexplicably jealous, but he didn't want to argue with a woman, so he turned his head to look at Xiao Jinlin, but saw that he didn't even look at him, so his face turned dark.
Since his grandfather, father, and uncle were all there, Xiao Jinlin couldn't find fault when talking to them.
Just this person is sulking in secret.
He Xue looked at Mu Qinglian strangely, and saw that she and Chen Xinyue got along well. She then glanced at Guo Lingyue, who was almost suffering from red eyes, and the depression that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time instantly dissipated.
During the meal, Chen Xinyue and Guo Lingyue, both juniors, should sit together. Guo Lingyue thought so too, and it was a good opportunity to do something.
As a result, He Xue and Old Madam Xiao never gave money this opportunity. They directly placed Chen Xinyue in the middle, asking about her well-being, and their favoritism was obvious.
Xiao Jinchen was so angry that he barely ate his meal and then found an excuse to take Guo Lingyue away.
If the couple had been angry in the past, Mu Qinglian would definitely catch up with them and leave with them.
But this time Mu Qinglian didn't move, and Xiao Bai didn't move either.
The others continued chatting as if it didn't matter.
Xiao Jinchen didn't call Mu Qinglian until he returned home. When he learned that they were still in the old house, he was so angry that he kicked over a chair on the spot.
Yuanyuan was so scared that she burst into tears.
Guo Lingyue was upset, but she didn't dare to bring bad luck at this time, so she could only make an excuse to coax the child back to the room.
No! She couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Guo Lingyue began to think about how to get rid of Chen Xinyue, or at least not be suppressed by Chen Xinyue.
So she contacted Su Su again, and the two of them plotted for a long time.
Two days later, when Xiao Jinlin went to a cocktail party, he found several women approaching him blatantly, and one of them was even bold enough to drug him.
If Tang Ming hadn't been alert, the other party might have succeeded.
The matter was reported to the police station, and the other party insisted that he liked Xiao Jinlin. As no serious consequences were caused, the police station imposed a punishment and the matter was dropped.
Xiao Jinlin was furious and gritted his teeth to ask Tang Ming to investigate thoroughly.
At this time, Lin Qin and Chen Wenjun also rushed over from Anshi.
Knowing that Chen Xinyue was well taken care of, the two felt relieved. However, they couldn't help but worry when they accidentally found out that Xiao Jinlin was being plotted against.
"As soon as the news of Xinyue's pregnancy got out, a woman set you up. I don't believe this is a coincidence!" Lin Qin's face turned pale and anger filled his eyes.
Xiao Jinlin quickly comforted her, "Mom, I think so too. He is still in the detention center. I plan to interrogate him after he is released. I have turned down all the recent cocktail parties and even asked everyone in the company for help."
Lin Qin was still worried, but her connections were not in the capital, so she couldn't do anything.
Because she was unsure, she asked Chen Wenjun to go back to Anshi to handle business matters first, and she stayed to accompany Chen Xinyue.
The day after Chen Wenjun left, Mu Qinglian and Guo Lingyue came.
The two didn't expect Lin Qin to be there too, and felt a little awkward.
Lin Qin learned from Chen Xinyue that she had reconciled with her mother-in-law. For the sake of her daughter, she was polite and did not turn her face away. She just invited them in calmly.
