Qin Huimin bent over slightly and took her handbag from the cabinet beside her. She yanked it hard, and the medical record that was under it fell to the floor with a thud. As the pages fell, they flipped a few pages. Qin Huimin furrowed her brows and bent over slightly to pick up the medical record. She pressed the call button on the other end.
Without waiting for the person on the other end to speak, she said directly, "It's rare for you to call me so many times in such a short period of time. At times like this, I'm really flattered."
The man on the other end of the line was obviously stunned for a moment. Then she heard him cough lightly and say in a dignified tone, "You're more familiar with me in England. Now that you're back and from C City to B City, I'm just concerned about you. Or perhaps you don't like it? I can stop calling. "
Qin Huimin laughed, but there was no joy in it. She took a deep breath and slowly said with utmost seriousness, "I know you're calling me in such a hurry because you don't really care about me, but since you've said it like this, I'll listen for now. Shiyun, I don't dare to say that I'm the person who knows you the best, but I definitely know you very well. I know what you want because I used to love you deeply, so I was willing to take a step back for you. But now, you're no longer my everything. "
"I've always wanted to return to C City openly, but it's not because I want to reconcile with you. It's because I know that this is already an extravagant wish of mine. I'm not refuting you now because I know we're both going for the same goal. I don't know what you're thinking, but to me, Fan Gang is my everything. I won't let him ruin it, so you don't have to come to work for me anymore. Whether you say it or not, my goal is the same as yours. Perhaps you're doing it for Yihan, but I'll always do it for my son. "
"I'll do what I'm supposed to do, but Fan Gang's temper isn't something that anyone can control. I'll always be here …"
Just as Qin Yunmin said this, she suddenly paused. She was holding her phone with one hand, and the other hand was casually resting on the medical report on her lap. When she picked it up, she didn't have time to close it. Now that she casually glanced at it, she happened to see something. Her expression changed instantly, and the rest of her words got stuck in her throat.
Lu Shiyun only heard half of what she said on the other end of the line. She didn't continue speaking, so he asked, "What did you say?"
“”
"— Huimin? Are you still on the phone? "
Qin Huimin hurriedly came back to her senses. Her lips quivered, and she paused for a moment before she stiffly said, "I-I have something to do here. That's all for now. I'll go back to C City with Fan Gang. As for Leng Xinyu, I'll … talk to her again."
No matter how astute Lu Shiyun was, Qin Huimin wasn't facing him right now, so he naturally couldn't guess what was going on with her. Moreover, when Qin Huimin spoke, she controlled her emotions well, so Lu Shiyun couldn't figure out what was going on. She had said those few words with great force, so Lu Shiyun didn't say anything else.
He responded, but before he hung up, he said, "Give me a call before you come back. I'll arrange for someone to pick you up."
After Qin Huimin hung up, she threw her phone aside and picked up the report to read it carefully. Her expression became more and more unsightly. In the end, her hands fell limply, and the report in her hands fell to the floor with a thud.
Pregnant.
She was actually pregnant.
Fan Gang had just brought this report in. When he left, he was in a hurry and left the report here. Qin Huimin didn't even need to look at the name on the report to guess whose report it was.
However, the three words "Leng Xinyu" were like sharp needles that pierced into the depths of her pupils and into the tip of her heart.
No wonder she was in the hospital. So she was pregnant? Did Fan Gang already know about this?
No, that can't be right.
Qin Huimin furrowed her brows and forced herself to calm down. In this chaotic situation, she couldn't afford to lose her composure. Just as she was wondering if Qin Fangang didn't know or if he already knew about Leng Xinyu's pregnancy, she suddenly heard a knock on the door behind her. Her face was pale as she snapped back to reality and heard Qin Fangang's voice outside the door.
"Mom, I forgot something just now. I'm coming in to get it."
Qin Fangang thought his mother was already resting inside, so he must've knocked on the door out of habit before entering. Qin Huimin instantly reacted. Almost instinctively, she opened her mouth and shouted, "Wait a minute."
“”
Sure enough, there wasn't any movement outside. Qin Huimin quickly got up, removed her jacket, and lay down on the bed. She took the pregnancy report off the table and pressed it under her pillow. Finally, she put the report back and pressed her handbag on top of it before lying on her side. Only then did she calm herself down and say to the door, "Come in."
When Qin Fangang pushed the door open and entered, he saw Qin Huimin lying on the bed. His eyes flickered for a moment, and there was a hint of guilt in his eyes.
The report was still on the cabinet. Qin Fangang strode over with his long legs and took the report. He glanced at his mother, who was lying on the bed without saying a word. In the end, he couldn't help but say in a deep voice, "Mom, I'll get someone to take you to the hotel tonight. If you feel unwell, you can get the doctor to check on you. You don't have to rest here."
"So you know where I feel unwell?"
Qin Huimin sighed softly. She glanced at the report in Qin Fangang's hand and looked distressed. "This report is Leng Xinyu's, isn't it? If you didn't want to help her get this report, would you have specially come back? Why would you care about where I feel unwell? "
Qin Fangang was speechless.
He reached out and pinched the space between his brows. Then he pulled up his trousers and sat on the edge of the bed. He reached out and held Qin Huimin's hand. Qin Fangang calmed himself down and frowned as he said, "Mom, I'm sorry for anything, but I really didn't mean to anger you. There are some things I've always wanted to say. You should know what kind of person your son is. Don't force me to do something I've already decided on, okay? "
"Then you can force me. Fan Gang, you want me to accept Leng Xinyu. Have you ever thought about my feelings? Maybe I'm really old, but to me, this is an ill-fated relationship! How can I agree to this? "
“”
Qin Huimin looked at Qin Fangang's determined expression. Even though he was apologizing to her, he was still unwilling to back down. She knew that it was impossible for her to put in any effort with her son. She recalled the report under her pillow. Qin Huimin had an idea and suddenly asked, "Why did you come to the hospital this time? Did something happen?"
Qin Fangang glanced at her and didn't think much of it. However, he didn't plan to tell his mother too much about Li Muhua at this time, so he avoided the important points and replied, "Xin Yu had an accident, so she was sent here. She didn't come to the hospital in B City. Mom, don't think too much about it."
The reason why Qin Fangang said this was because he wanted his mother to slowly accept Xinyu, so he naturally wouldn't hide too much about her problems.
After Qin Huimin heard this and looked at Qin Fangang's expression, she was 60% sure that he didn't know about Xin Yu's pregnancy. However, just in case, she still asked, "What accident?"
"She's just not acclimatized. It's not a big deal," Qin Fangang said casually.
Qin Huimin nodded. She seemed to think for a long time before she finally said, "She's in the hospital now, right? I want to see her again. "
“”
Qin Fangang's heart sank slightly. He thought to himself that whatever he was afraid of, it would happen. Of course, he wouldn't agree. He frowned and shook his head. "Mom, there's no need for that. You —"
"No need?"
Qin Huimin interrupted him and asked, "Are you afraid that I'll make things difficult for her?"
Qin Fangang didn't answer. He was caught off guard by what happened last time. Later, Xin Yu even told him that his mother knelt in front of her. This kind of action had a huge impact on Xin Yu. How could he dare to let his mother see her alone now?
That woman had suffered too much because of him. He couldn't bear to see her emotions fluctuate in the slightest. Therefore, even if it was Qin Huimin, his attitude was still firm. "Mom, what do you want to talk to her about? Later. When she's better, I'll bring her to see you. Is that okay? Don't worry. I can't hide her forever, and I won't let anyone get close to her. Moreover, you're my mother. I hope that you can accept her wholeheartedly, but I know that you won't change your mind about her now. I don't want to hide anything from you. I really don't want you to see her now. "
Qin Huimin's heart turned cold when he heard these words. "You're afraid that I'll hurt her?"
"Mom, you shouldn't have knelt in front of her that day —"
"Now you know how to protect your woman so openly in front of me. People used to say that daughters are born for other people, but now I feel that this son of mine was born for someone else."
Qin Huimin was probably heartbroken. Since ancient times, mothers had always been protective of their sons. It was almost instinctive for them to be picky about their daughters-in-law. It seemed that every woman had this mentality. She always felt that her son was perfect and belonged to her completely. If other women treated him well, she couldn't wait to snatch him away from her. If they didn't treat him well, she wouldn't let them off easily.
But now, her son's heart was completely with that woman.
This feeling made her dislike that woman called Leng Xinyu even more.
