Su Yushan was curious, but didn't ask further. Fortunately, Hongli didn't intend to hide it from her and frankly relayed the information, "Jin Minjing... she's actually pregnant!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yushan looked at him in surprise. Noticing her questioning gaze, Hongli immediately clarified, "I didn't touch her, and you know I almost never go there."
Hongli did not go there often, but there were exceptions: "You went once during the Spring Festival."
"That's to visit that child, only once a year." Yu Shan knew about this; he had told her before he went.
Su Yushan didn't answer, but instead asked Li Yu, "How many months pregnant is Jin Minjing?"
Li Yu replied, "The messenger said it has been three months."
Xiao Shan frowned slightly as Su Yushan pondered to herself, "It's been exactly three months since the Lunar New Year."
The more he listened to her voice, the more suspicious it seemed. Hongli frowned in displeasure. "Are you doubting me? She's gone mad; she's not a normal person anymore. Besides, I was only going to see the child, not her. How could anything have happened between us?"
"Yes! There are so many beauties in the manor, and Hongli hasn't touched any of them. There's no need for him to go looking for a crazy woman. So what's the deal with Jin Minjing's pregnancy?" Su Yushan thought about it more and more suspiciously. "She's pregnant, but you haven't touched her. Could it be that she..."
What Su Yushan said next was beneath her dignity as a man, so she didn't dare continue. In fact, Hongli had also considered that possibility.
"Kim Min-jung has cheated on her husband!"
Thinking of this, Hongli slammed his fist on the table in anger! After this incident, he lost all interest in sightseeing and decided to go to the villa. He didn't want Yushan to misunderstand, so he decided to take Yushan with him to find out what was going on.
Yu Shan was also curious about the reason, so she went with him.
When the two arrived at the villa, they got off the carriage and went inside. They saw the old woman leading the young prince to catch butterflies.
Upon seeing the Fourth Prince approach, the nanny was somewhat surprised. She immediately pulled the young prince towards the Fourth Prince and reminded him...
"Fourth Master is here, Little Prince, quickly call Father."
This was the first time Su Yushan had seen the child. The little boy was handsome and good in every way, except for his unusually shaped ears. As a mother, seeing this made her feel a little sad.
The child seemed unfamiliar with Hongli, hiding behind the nanny for a long while before timidly calling out.
“Father.”
He gave a soft "hmm," but Hongli didn't hug him. Instead, he walked straight to the backyard. Right now, he was only focused on solving the mystery and had no interest in dealing with anyone else.
In the backyard, Jin Minjing was sitting in front of her dressing table, combing her hair with a wooden comb. "I've combed my hair straight! Ruo'er, why don't you do my hair? Make me look beautiful!"
The maid Ruo'er sat idly to one side, trimming her nails, and said casually, "What's the point of putting your hair up? Who'll come to see you?"
Looking at herself in the mirror, Kim Min-jung smiled slightly, "Fourth Master will come to see me, and I want him to see my most beautiful side."
Upon hearing this, Ruo'er chuckled and said, "Fourth Master only comes once a year. He just came before the New Year, and it's only been three months. There's no way he'll come again. Princess, you should just give up on that idea!"
Jin Minjing frowned unhappily, glanced at him with her phoenix eyes, and retorted angrily, "What do you know? Fourth Master has me in his heart."
Ruo'er found it laughable and was too lazy to argue with her. "Yes, this servant doesn't understand, no one else does, only you, Princess, understand Fourth Master."
"So don't be lazy, hurry up and do my hair, maybe Fourth Master will come to visit me soon!" Jin Minjing said expectantly, but Ruo'er claimed to have a stomachache and tried to slip away, too lazy to do her hair.
Just as she reached the doorway, she suddenly saw someone walking towards her. Ruo'er was filled with surprise and disbelief, thinking she was seeing things. After rubbing her eyes and recognizing the person, Ruo'er became extremely nervous and stammered.
"Fourth...Fourth Master! This servant greets Fourth Master!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Minjing's face lit up with joy. She immediately stood up, put down the comb, and walked outside. "Is Fourth Master really here?"
Walking briskly to the door, Kim Min-jung immediately spotted the man she had been longing for, standing tall and handsome under the eaves.
"Fourth Master! You've finally arrived!" Jin Minjing excitedly stepped forward and hugged him, but Hongli Feng frowned, reached out and pulled her away, staring at her with a livid face.
Li Yu gestured for Ruo'er to leave. Ruo'er didn't understand his meaning, but judging from the Fourth Master's expression, she guessed that nothing good was going to happen, so she took her leave.
Ignoring his cold attitude, Jin Minjing happily welcomed him into the house. Her eyes were only on Hongli, and she ignored Su Yushan who was following behind.
Su Yushan and Jin Minjing hadn't seen each other for over three years. Recalling Jin Minjing's despicable actions still made Su Yushan's heart tremble uncontrollably!
Her hatred for Kim Min-jung could not be erased by time, but when she saw Kim Min-jung's abnormal state, she could not feel happy. She did not feel the satisfaction of seeing her enemy get his comeuppance, but only lamented, "If only I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?"
Back then, Kim Min-jung was adorned with jewels, and her makeup and clothes were exquisite and gorgeous. Now, however, she is plain-faced and dressed in simple clothes, and even the maids who serve her dare to neglect her.
Whose fault could this drastic change be? If Jin Minjing had even a shred of kindness and hadn't schemed so cunningly, Hongli wouldn't have driven her out of the manor, would he? Su Yushan, overwhelmed with emotion, silently followed Hongli into the house. Jin Minjing personally poured tea for Hongli, but he swept it away with a wave of his hand, shattering it on the floor!
Jin Minjing was startled and knelt down timidly, "I don't know what I did wrong to anger Fourth Master so much?"
Hongli glanced at her with disgust and asked bluntly, "Are you pregnant?"
