She was blushing as she explained to Huo Xiting, "Um, no, you've got it wrong. I... I'm not pregnant, and I didn't have a miscarriage. I was just... I wasn't feeling well, but I'm all better now."
Huo Xiting also felt that she didn't look like she had a miscarriage at all, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"You scared me to death! I'm so glad you're okay."
Su Yaoyao smiled; "By the way, you said you were busy yesterday, was it..."
"It's because you dragged me down."
Before she could finish speaking, Huo Xiting interrupted her.
Upon hearing this, Su Yaoyao's expression brightened; "Did you find out something?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Xiting's expression turned serious. "I had someone check Chen Huimei's communication records and account transactions overnight, and there were no financial transactions between her and Chen Feng."
Upon hearing this, Su Yaoyao's smile faded slightly, and her brows furrowed a little; "What about Su Qingqing's?"
Huo Xiting also shook his head.
Su Yaoyao fell silent. Chen Huimei and Su Qingqing had no financial dealings with Chen Feng, so how did they manage to get Chen Feng to help Su Qingqing lie?
Thinking about this, Su Yaoyao fell into deep thought.
Huo Xiting took a sip of coffee, and looking at Su Yaoyao's serious expression, a hint of tenderness appeared in his eyes.
"Yaoyao, don't worry too much, I will help you find out the truth about this."
Su Yaoyao knew he was comforting her, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Thank you, Xiting."
Huo Xiting was momentarily stunned by her smile and blurted out something as if possessed.
“Yaoyao, I’m really afraid you’ll get pregnant with Yu Chiyan’s child, after all… you don’t love him.”
Having a child is not an easy thing, and having a child for someone you don't love is an unfortunate thing, unless, of course, you want the child yourself.
Huo Xiting knew that Su Yaoyao wanted to divorce Yu Chiyan, so she wasn't surprised that he said such things.
She chuckled softly. "You were probably shocked when you heard about my miscarriage yesterday, right? Actually, Yu Chiyan was mistaken. He didn't know I was in poor health and couldn't conceive."
Upon hearing this, Huo Xiting's expression changed slightly.
What's wrong with your health? Is it serious?
Su Yaoyao realized she had spoken too quickly and said the wrong thing, so she immediately explained.
"No, no, it's a minor issue. It just has a slight impact. With proper care, it will be fine in the future."
Huo Xiting breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she didn't seem to be lying.
"That's good."
Su Yaoyao smiled but didn't say anything.
Looking at her somewhat thin face, and remembering what Wen Qing had found out—that Yu Chiyan had made her stand in the sun outside the Imperial Court all afternoon—Huo Xiting couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
The man reached out, wanting to touch the woman's fair cheek, and Su Yaoyao's body stiffened slightly.
Noticing her discomfort, Huo Xiting smiled, turned his arm, and gently patted the top of her head, his tone half joking and half doting and serious.
"Yaoyao, if one day you can't help yourself and want to leave Nancheng, remember to look for me. I will give up everything to help you."
This was his personal desire, but also a promise.
Su Yaoyao stared at him blankly, unsure of what to say for a moment.
"Clap clap clap..."
Just then, a burst of applause came from behind them, and Su Yaoyao and Huo Xiting turned around at the same time.
The tall man, exuding a chilling aura, leaned against the wall; no one knew how long he had been standing there.
He lowered his hands, his gloomy face sending chills down one's spine.
Su Yaoyao froze; "Yu Chiyan?"
When did this man arrive?
