Lin Yan's eyes widened in disbelief at the nurse's words. At that moment, Lin Yan's mind went blank. It was as if the air had frozen in that instant.
It was just a short minute, but to Lin Yan, it felt like a century had passed.
Ye Zi was pregnant.
She was pregnant with his child.
He was going to be a father.
These words kept echoing in Lin Yan's mind. He suddenly came back to his senses and picked Ye Zi up. He didn't care about the wound on his arm and spun on the spot.
"Lin Yan, Lin Yan, put me down first. Put me down quickly. People are still watching."
Ye Zi's face was red as she gently patted Lin Yan's shoulder.
The medical staff at the side covered their mouths and smiled.
Ye Zi got down from Lin Yan's arms. Her cheeks were red. "You're going to be a father. Why …"
She suddenly saw Lin Yan's arm. Blood was seeping out. Ye Zi was shocked. She quickly said, "Your wound has opened up."
Fortunately, they were in the hospital. It was very convenient to treat Lin Yan's wound.
On the way home, Lin Yan always had a childlike smile on his face. It was as if he had the whole world in his hands. From time to time, his gaze would fall on Ye Zi's belly. Then, he would reach out to touch it.
"Hehe …" Ye Zi raised her hand to cover her mouth. She couldn't help but laugh. "I just had a baby. What can you feel?"
She had just found out that she was pregnant. She couldn't feel anything at all. Looking at Lin Yan's silly expression, it was like he was a completely different person from his aloof self.
Lin Yan scratched his head and looked at Ye Zi with a smile.
He rarely showed such a smile. At this moment, Ye Zi was a little dazed. Lin Yan's smile was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off him.
In a flash, Ye Zi lowered her head and gently rubbed her stomach.
She was going to be a mother.
This was something she had never thought about.
In the past few years, Ye Zi's only goal was to prevent her father's hard work from closing down. For the detective agency, for Ye Xinrou, she could only hide all her dreams and devote herself to the detective agency.
Now, she had someone she loved, the courage to live on, and a child.
Ye Zi liked the simple and peaceful life she had now. She didn't have to solve crimes, investigate other people, or catch adulterers.
There was a smile on her lips.
She slowly closed her long eyelashes.
In Ye Zi's mind, an image appeared: On a sunny afternoon, she was lying on a chair and basking in the sun. Sitting next to her was the man she loved, and their child was playing …
Suddenly, a voice appeared in Ye Zi's mind: Ye Zi, long time no see!
She was already very familiar with this voice. He always called her from an unfamiliar number without any embellishment.
Who on earth is this mysterious man?! "
He seemed to always like to ruin her happiness when she was feeling the happiest.
Ye Zi's expression abruptly changed. She abruptly glanced to the side, and looked towards Lin Yan beside her … …
Taking a few deep breaths, Ye Zi clenched her fists. Her long fingernails dug deep into her palms, leaving a series of marks on them.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yan felt the pressure around him change slightly. He glanced at Ye Zi, frowned slightly, and asked softly.
Ye Zi pursed her lips and shook her head slightly. "I just haven't recovered from the shock yet. I didn't expect that I would be a mother so soon."
Although there was a faint smile on her face, her heart was very heavy.
If she didn't get rid of the threat as soon as possible, then her child would become a sharp weapon that could threaten her.
No! Ye Zi wouldn't let him threaten her child!
Her eyes couldn't help but sink. She slowly raised her eyelashes, and her gaze became extremely determined.
Beep beep beep …
The car honked incessantly. Ye Zi frowned and looked out the window. There was a long line of cars, and it was jammed. When she looked at the traffic lights again, she looked at Lin Yan in confusion. "What's going on?"
Lin Yan didn't know either. He shrugged and said, "Maybe it's a car accident. I'll go down and take a look. "
Ye Zi suddenly grabbed Lin Yan's hand and shook her head at him. "No."
Lin Yan furrowed her brows. Normally, if something were to happen, she would be the first to jump out of the car to see what was going on. However, today, she was very … unusual.
Smiling slightly, Lin Yan thought that Ye Zi was pregnant for the first time, and that was why she was so cautious. But this was also good. At least she could be his Mrs. Lin.
Lin Yan gently rubbed Ye Zi's head, and his thin lips curled up slightly. "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
With that, under Ye Zi's slightly timid gaze, Lin Yan unbuckled his seat belt and got out of his black Cherokee.
In the middle of the road, there was a woman lying across.
In such a cold winter, the woman was only wearing a thin silk nightgown. Her skin was white, and it seemed that it was because of the cold. The woman's eyes were tightly closed, and her long hair was spread out. From afar, her long hair looked like a peacock spreading its tail.
The woman was dead.
As for how she died, no one knew.
Even more, no one knew why a woman wearing silk nightgown would be lying on the road.
Lin Yan didn't go forward too much. His height was his advantage. Even if he was standing far away, he could still see clearly what was happening in front of him.
He wasn't a busybody, and his fiancée was still sitting in the car.
The hot air he exhaled condensed into a thin layer of ice mist in the air. Lin Yan's cold but sharp gaze fell on an old acquaintance — Chen Mo.
Chen Mo was wearing a black down jacket. Because he was working outdoors, his face was slightly red from the cold. He looked around, and his gaze met with Lin Yan's.
The two of them nodded at each other, and Lin Yan walked towards Chen Mo.
Chen Mo rubbed his hands and covered his ears. He walked towards Lin Yan and gestured with his chin. "Why are you here?"
A faint smile appeared on Lin Yan's lips. He glanced at the black Cherokee behind him. "Ye Zi is pregnant. We just came back from the hospital."
As he spoke, Lin Yan raised his eyebrows at the police line. "What's going on?"
Ye Zi is pregnant?!
The news was like a heavy bomb that exploded in Chen Mo's head. In an instant, Chen Mo narrowed his eyes and tried his best to remain calm. He didn't look too shocked.
Chen Mo shrugged. Due to the cold weather, his nose was red from the cold. He sniffled and glanced at the woman in the middle of the police line. "We just received a report that there's a female body here. We're here to take a look."
"What's going on? Do you need help? "Lin Yan's thin lips parted slightly as he asked in an indifferent voice.
Chen Mo replied calmly, "No need. Hurry back to the car and accompany the girl. We'll bring the body back to the team."
When Lin Yan heard this, he nodded slightly and returned to the car.
Ye Zi had been clenching her fists. When she suddenly heard the car door open, she looked at it and asked with a frown, "What's going on?"
Lin Yan got into the car and fastened his seatbelt. He looked at Ye Zi and smiled gently. "There's a murder in front. Chen Mo is in front."
"A murder?" Ye Zi frowned slightly. She blinked her long eyelashes and looked in Chen Mo's direction in confusion.
At that moment, Chen Mo had finished investigating the crime scene and was about to leave.
Chen Mo looked at the black Jeep Cherokee not far away and ran over.
When Ye Zi saw Chen Mo coming over, she quickly rolled down the window. "Brother Chen Mo, what's going on?"
Chen Mo smiled faintly. "You're going to be a mother soon, but you're still so curious. It has nothing to do with you. We have to go back to the team first. We'll know the cause of death after the autopsy."
Ye Zi took out a bottle of water from the back of the car. She warmed it in her hand and passed it to Chen Mo. "Thank you for your hard work, Captain Chen Dui."
Chen Mo shook his head and smiled faintly. "I can't believe you're making fun of me. Alright, the traffic will be open soon. You should go back. I'll visit you in a few days. "
Ye Zi nodded and rolled up the window.
After a while, the road was open again. Chen Mo waved at Ye Zi. Lin Yan started the car and left the road.
When they got home, Lin Yan couldn't wait to tell Qin Chen and Jian Xia about Ye Zi's pregnancy. They were even more exaggerated. In less than three hours, they arrived at Xinglan Bay Apartments with all kinds of baby products.
Ye Zi looked at the diapers, milk powder, stroller, and dozens of other baby products. Her mouth couldn't help but twitch.
She put her arm around Jian Xia's shoulder and got close to her. She smiled helplessly. "Honey, I'm only two months pregnant. Stroller, milk powder, diapers … Haha, don't you think it's too early?"
Jian Xia gently nudged Ye Zi's arm with her elbow. "I've prepared everything for you."
"Good, good." Ye Zi smiled.
Jian Xia said, "This is the first happy event we've had in a while. By the way, your wedding with Lin Yan …"
Ye Zi glanced at Lin Yan and Qin Chen. She smiled faintly and said, "I just want a simple wedding with some good friends."
However, Jian Xia didn't think much of it. "Lin Yan has already done so much for just a wedding ring. I don't think he'll make your wedding so simple."
Ye Zi thought for a moment, smiled, and touched the diamond ring on her finger.
Ring, ring, ring …
While the four of them were chatting, Ye Zi's phone suddenly rang.
She picked up the phone, glanced at it, and looked up at Lin Yan. "It's my Brother Chen Mo."
Then, Ye Zi answered Chen Mo's call.
"Hello …"
On the phone, Chen Mo's voice was low and hoarse. "Little girl, you need to come to the police station."
"What happened?" Ye Zi asked with a frown.
Chen Mo thought for a while and said word by word, "In the call records of the deceased, you were the last contact."
