Chapter 958: Chapter 957: Suspicious
Because they were going out for fun, everyone finished their work very quickly.
Shu Pan left the company and unexpectedly received a call from Ye Xiaomeng.
“Girl, where are you? Can you come over to my place… I… seem to have provoked a miscarriage scare,” Ye Xiaomeng said in a voice that broke off intermittently, using a lot of effort to finish her sentence.
Shu Pan was startled, “Okay, I’ll come right away.”
Fortunately, her office wasn’t too far from Xiaomeng’s house; Shu Pan immediately took a cab there. By the time she arrived, Xiaomeng was slowly making her way out, carrying a bag.
Shu Pan asked the driver to wait for a moment and then got out to help Ye Xiaomeng into the car.
The car quickly headed towards the hospital; fortunately, they arrived in time, and the pain in her abdomen had lessened after she received an injection to stabilize the pregnancy.
After the injection and a period of observation, Shu Pan finally asked the question on her mind, “How did this miscarriage scare happen? Where’s He Ming?”
Logically, if Xiaomeng felt unwell, she should have contacted He Ming first, right?
It was then that Shu Pan noticed Ye Xiaomeng’s eyes were red, and she remained silent.
Shu Pan was taken aback. What was going on? She hadn’t seen Xiaomeng like this in a long time. It seemed like the last time was when she had split from Cheng Yang.
“Xiaomeng?” Shu Pan saw her staring blankly and gently nudged her.
Ye Xiaomeng’s tears fell like pearls, dropping suddenly with a “plop.”
Shu Pan quickly took a tissue from her bag and offered it to her, “Wipe your tears, do you feel like talking about it?”
Ye Xiaomeng wiped her tears and her runny nose, then said hoarsely, “Girl, why is my judgment of men so poor? One is like this, and so is another?”
Shu Pan’s heart skipped a beat, “Why do you say that? Did He Ming do something to hurt you?”
Ye Xiaomeng thought for a moment, then said, “He has been coming home late these past few days, claiming it’s because of social commitments. But do you know? Yesterday, I found a lipstick mark on the collar of his white shirt. I confronted him right away, and he said it was accidentally smeared by someone bumping into him, and I believed him. But in the evening, when I called to ask if he was coming home for dinner, a woman answered his phone. What does that tell you? It only indicates one thing — he’s having an affair.”
Ye Xiaomeng was calmer now, speaking without the agitation she had shown earlier.
Shu Pan frowned slightly; honestly, if it were Gu Shaoting whom they said was cheating, she might believe it, but He Ming? Everyone knows how much he adores his wife.
Especially since Xiaomeng was pregnant this time, he was extremely cautious with her, as if fearing he might break her. How could such an absurd thing happen?
“Is it possible you’re overthinking it? Xiaomeng, pregnant women tend to imagine things,” Shu Pan explained.
“I also hope I’m overthinking it, but when he was explaining that day, he couldn’t even look me in the eyes; he clearly looked guilty,” Ye Xiaomeng said, her eyes filled with pain, a look of despair.
Shu Pan’s mind was in turmoil; she hadn’t anticipated such problems existed between the loving couple of Xiaomeng and He Ming.
“Look, he hasn’t even called back yet. When I was pregnant before, he used to call almost every five minutes. When I initially found out I was pregnant, he frequently called, showing great concern for big and small things alike,” Ye Xiaomeng said, her tone turning somewhat mocking.
When a man changes his heart, it happens in minutes.
Indeed, every family has its own problems.
Shu Pan didn’t know how to console her. After all, she was also dealing with her own overwhelming issues.
“Don’t overthink it; maybe it’s your anxiety talking. Right now, you are pregnant, and you need to focus on keeping yourself and the baby healthy. We can deal with everything else later,” Shu Pan said, holding her hand and gently patting it.
