“I’ll stay behind for two days.” An Xiaoning then said to Mei Yangyang, “Go back first, I’ll stay here to accompany Erlan for two days and at the same time find out who’s stirring all this trouble.”
Not wanting to go home since she finally got to spend time with An Xiaoning, Mei Yangyang countered, “Sis, there’s nothing for me to do at home anyway. I want to stay with you, I don’t want to go home.”
“Your Tianze is going to blame me for causing him to sleep alone then.”
Mei Yangyang raised her brows and said, “He wouldn’t dare to. I’m so sick of being with him all day every day. Good that I get to come out to relax for a while.”
“Alright then, give Tianze a call to inform him.”
“Okay.”
Mei Yangyang called the hotel, only to hear that there were no longer any empty rooms on the eighth floor. Hence, she booked a room on the seventh floor instead.
After Fang Erlan left to begin filming, An Xiaoning and Mei Yangyang remained in the backseat of the car, placing their heads together. An Xiaoning asked Mei Yangyang, “Do you find anything wrong with Yan Ge’s betrothed?”
“According to our instincts when it comes to women, it’s not entirely impossible that she was the one up to mischief. However, as Yan Ge’s fiancée, she should know that Erlan was merely doing her job when acting out the intimate scenes with Yan Ge. Shouldn’t she be open about it? Well, unless she knows that Erlan fancies Yan Ge…”
Taking a sip of mineral water while hugging her knees, An Xiaoning said, “Never underestimate how petty a woman can be. There’s no need for her to do that, unless Yan Ge fancies Erlan too.”
“Sis, do you think Yan Ge carries a torch for Erlan as well?”
An Xiaoning shook her head and said, “Why would a man get engaged to another woman if he already has someone else he fancies? Clearly, Yan Ge doesn’t have feelings for Erlan.”
“Could it be someone else other than his fiancée?”
“Regardless of who it may be, I’ll get Shixin to run a background check on this fiancée of Yan Ge’s and see if we should pin her as a suspect.” She then dialed Fan Shixin’s number and handed him some instructions. “I didn’t rest well last night. I shall take a nap now.”
“Did your Brother Jin mess with you in bed again last night?”
An Xiaoning retorted in amusement, “Didn’t your Brother Long do the same?”
Mei Yangyang guffawed and stared at her mobile phone screen while tapping away incessantly. “Sis, go ahead and sleep. My Brother Long has been texting me non-stop after hearing that I’ll be staying with you here for two days. He’s afraid that I’ll elope with you and abandon him. I’ll chat with him for a while.”
An Xiaoning expressed assent and closed her eyes with a smile.

“Doctor, what are the results of the checkup?” Mo Li asked while sitting down beside the gynecologist. Although she had already prepared herself for the worst, she could not help but feel as if the gynecologist’s words were like daggers piercing through her heart.
“There’s almost a zero possibility of you conceiving again. The chances are slim even if you try and nourish your body to nurse it back to health.”
“Will I still be able to ovulate?” she asked.
“Didn’t you say that your fallopian tubes were clogged previously? There isn’t much of an issue when it comes to ovulation now. The main problem is that the membrane of your womb is naturally too thin. Besides, you’ve also once sustained major injuries to your womb. For you, trying to conceive would be like planting on an infertile land. Also, you’re suffering from inflammation.”
A gloomy and melancholic expression formed on Mo Li’s face. After exiting the hospital, she rode her motorbike back to the estate.
Along the way, she dropped by the supermarket to buy a few bags full of daily necessities.
The moment she exited the elevator, she caught sight of a stranger woman standing at her doorstep.
She even smiled at Mo Li, who stepped forward to ask, “Who are you looking for?”
“You.”
Slightly startled, Mo Li tried to recall where she had seen the woman before. Why is she looking for me?
Noticing that Mo Li was remaining silent, Sister Zhang asked, “Will you allow me inside your house to have a chat with you about Yun Chen?”
Mo Li nodded upon hearing No. 8’s name. She opened the door and entered while Sister Zhang followed closely behind.
Sister Zhang snickered the moment she stepped foot inside, in complete disdain of how small Mo Li’s studio apartment was.
Mo Li placed the meat and vegetables inside the refrigerator before pouring Sister Zhang a cup of tea.
She sat down opposite her and asked, “What would you like to talk about… regarding Yun Chen?”
Sister Zhang did not touch the tea and asked with a smile, “Ms. Mo, you don’t seem very old. How old do you think I am?”
Mo Li gazed at her face. Women would usually want others to say that they look younger than their actual age. Mo Li asked, “Forty?”
“You’ve got really sharp eyes, Ms. Mo. I’m really 40 years old this year. You must be wondering how I’m related to Yun Chen, right? Make another guess, who do you think I am to him?”
Mo Li’s heart sank. Since Yun Chen is an orphan, she definitely can’t be his sister. I haven’t heard of any female friends of his either. Could it be that she was his ex-girlfriend?
“I really have no idea. Please just tell me straight.”
“You’ll understand after I show you some photos, Ms. Mo,” said Sister Zhang, who took out her mobile phone from her bag and opened the photo album to show Mo Li some photos.
Mo Li took the mobile phone from her. Faced with the photos, she squinted to see a much younger Yun Chen holding the woman before her in his arms. However, their bare shoulders were exposed and it was apparent that they weren’t wearing any clothes.
“There are more below.”
Mo Li continued to scroll down to look at the next few photos, one by one…
She then handed the mobile phone back to Sister Zhang and said, “Turns out you’re his ex-girlfriend. What’s the point of showing me these photos? Since he and I are already dating now, I wouldn’t mind his past. Actually, I’ve had a horrible past as well. We’ve decided to let bygones be bygones.”
Surprised to hear her response, Sister Zhang said, “I’m afraid you might be mistaken. I’m not his ex-girlfriend, he was just one of my boy toys. This mobile phone used to belong to Yun Chen. You don’t have to give it back to me, you may keep it.”
Mo Li placed the mobile phone onto the table and said smiling, “Regardless of how you were related to him in the past, it doesn’t matter to me at all. I guess your efforts are going to be in vain. I won’t argue or have a tiff with him over his past. This is not the reason why we got together. Please take your leave if there’s nothing else you’d like to say, Miss.”
Sister Zhang realized that she had underestimated Mo Li. She initially thought that she could see Mo Li hitting the roof and turning as pale as a ghost. To her surprise, Mo Li remained calm and composed.
She stood up and blurted callously, “I bet you don’t know about Yun Chen’s erectile dysfunction, do you? I’ve long toyed with him to the point of destruction. Will you two even have a proper sex life?”
Mo Li stood up and kept her eyes fixed on Sister Zhang’s eyes. “I bet you didn’t know, my Yun Chen has already recovered after receiving treatment. You must be disappointed. He lasted for forty minutes when we were getting intimate last night.”
A sullen expression formed on Sister Zhang’s face. Forty minutes? I don’t believe it at all.
“Ms. Mo, stop trying to fool yourself and others. Back when he was with me, he had to rely on viagra to last for forty minutes.”
