Old Mrs. Pei whispered a few words into Old Mrs. Shen's ear.
The wrinkles on Mrs. Shen's face instantly opened up, and she was surprised and happy: "My dear, are you telling the truth? Ruoxi is five months pregnant?"
Old Mrs. Pei immediately raised her index finger and made a "silence" gesture.
"Keep your voice down. Xiao Ruoxi is a celebrity now, with a lot of fans. I heard that the entertainment industry is particularly sensitive to this kind of thing. We have to be careful and not bring trouble to Xiao Ruoxi!"
Old Mrs. Shen immediately nodded in understanding, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but grin behind her ears.
"How could these two kids be so secretive? If you hadn't told me, I'd have been kept in the dark even after their baby was born!"
Mrs. Pei raised her chin proudly: "So you didn't know either. Now I feel relieved."
"If I hadn't observed carefully and noticed that Ruoxi no longer liked the dishes she usually liked, and if the third brother seemed to be well aware of this, I might have been kept in the dark!"
Old Mrs. Shen looked envious: "Ruoxi has been busy filming recently. This time she came back and stayed at your place. I'm so jealous!"
Mrs. Pei was very proud: "It seems that it was very wise of me to let Ayan get married at this time!"
The two old ladies were chatting about Qiao Ruoxi. Chen Qin was accompanying Old Lady Shen, feeling an indescribable feeling in her heart.
"Boy or girl?" Chen Qin suddenly asked.
The two old ladies stopped talking at the same time and looked at Chen Qin.
Chen Qin felt a little uneasy and smoothed her hair: "I'm just curious, is she pregnant with a boy or a girl..."
Mrs. Pei and Mrs. Shen looked at each other.
"Xiaoqin mentioned this matter, and I just wanted to discuss it with you." Old Mrs. Pei's expression suddenly became very serious.
Mrs. Shen was also serious: "You say."
"As long as it's born by Ruoxi, I like both boys and girls. As for whether the last name is Qiao, Pei, or Chen, let's not interfere with the children. Let Ruoxi make the decision. What do you think?"
After Mrs. Pei finished speaking, she looked at Mrs. Shen and Shen Qin.
Old Mrs. Shen breathed a sigh of relief: "My dear, I'm relieved that you think so. Let the children make their own decisions. This is the best!"
Mrs. Pei's face lit up with joy. "What about Xiaoqin? How do you feel?"
Chen Qin's nose suddenly felt sore, and she smiled bitterly: "You don't need to ask me about this kind of thing. How can I be qualified to discuss such a topic? Mom, Aunt Pei, I'm a little bored. I'm going out for some fresh air."
After saying that, Chen Qin got up in a hurry and left as if escaping.
Mrs. Pei looked at Chen Qin's back and asked Mrs. Shen curiously: "What's wrong with Xiaoqin? Are you unhappy?"
Old Mrs. Shen shook her head: "How can I be happy? I'm afraid it will be too late to regret. Once a decision is made, the consequences must be borne. She should understand this."
Old Madam Pei also sighed: "Ruoxi is such a good child. If she were my biological daughter or granddaughter, I would be so happy. Xiaoqin is so confused!"
…
Chen Qin took several deep breaths before she could barely control the tears that kept falling from her eyes.
She didn't know what was wrong, but when she heard that Qiao Ruoxi was pregnant, she felt an indescribable sense of relief and bitterness in her heart.
She had obviously convinced herself before that she no longer had any other feelings for her except the compensation she could give, but at this moment, her heart still gave the most genuine reaction.
She regretted it!
"Chen Qin? How dare you come here?!"
A familiar voice came from her ears. Chen Qin frowned, wiped the tears from her face, and then turned to look at Sun Zheng.
Seeing this, Chen Qin couldn't help but be surprised.
Sun Zheng's eyes were full of ferociousness, and he looked extremely miserable, especially the way he walked towards her with his back hunched and his hands on his waist, which was simply too weird.
"Did you sprain your waist again?" Chen Qin asked subconsciously.
Sun Zheng worked as a laborer when he was young and injured his waist. As he got older, he often suffered from back problems.
Not only Chen Qin knew about this, but all the Shen family members knew about it, so they never let him do any heavy or strenuous work.
"You're so hypocritical! My waist is like this, and it's all because of you!" Sun Zheng looked at Chen Qin with malice in his eyes.
Chen Qin frowned: "We have already separated. What does your injured waist have to do with me?"
Sun Zheng pointed at Chen Qin's nose and said, "I've never seen a woman as cruel as you. Yun'er is our daughter whom we've raised for eighteen years. It's fine if you didn't go to get the marriage certificate, but you won't go to pick up the bride today!"
"I wouldn't say anything if you didn't go to pick up the bride, but you actually didn't let Ling Feng and Ling Fei go. How come I didn't realize you were so vicious before!"
Chen Qin frowned even tighter: "I didn't ask Ling Feng and Ling Fei not to go to pick up the bride."
"How is that possible!" Sun Zheng suddenly shouted, "They are Yun'er's biological brothers. How could they deliberately not go to pick up her when they knew she was getting married?"
Chen Qin didn't respond, but looked at Sun Zheng.
A flash of panic crossed Sun Zheng's face. "What I mean is, they have loved Yun'er since they were little and treated her like their own sister. How could they not go to pick her up? It must be you who stopped them from going!"
Just then, a hot news popped up.
[The Pei family's live wedding reception: Is the former eldest daughter of the Shen family actually a down-and-out bride?]
Chen Qin opened the video and took a look, and then she understood where Sun Zheng's anger came from.
After all these years, this man hasn't changed or grown at all.
He has a bad temper but also cares about his reputation, and in the end he can only use anger to cover up his cowardice.
