Chapter 450: Infertility

Hong Kong is not big; with Guo Jin's ability, finding Liu Qingqing is not difficult.

As long as Guo Jin finds Liu Qingqing, whether she is pregnant will soon be known.

However, Chen Yang was still a bit impatient. The next day, when he went to the provincial government to handle business, he directly asked Su Mingyue: "Why didn't you tell me about Qingqing's pregnancy?"

Su Mingyue said softly: "Qingqing won't let me say."

Chen Yang said somewhat dissatisfied: "Since Qingqing won't let you speak, why did you tell Lin Wei?"

Su Mingyue replied helplessly: "I didn't want to say it either; I was tricked into saying it by your wife."

Chen Yang was speechless. Given Lin Wei's scheming, Su Mingyue and Liu Qingqing really had no choice but to be played.

"Then whose child is it that Qingqing is carrying?"

Su Mingyue looked at Chen Yang with surprise: "Isn't the child in her belly yours?"

Chen Yang was momentarily stumped by the question.

Su Mingyue continued: "If it's not yours, whose could it be? I've never heard her mention any other man besides you..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang guessed that Liu Qingqing certainly hadn't told Su Mingyue the child's biological father. He nervously said to Su Mingyue: "You didn't tell Lin Wei the child is mine, did you?"

Su Mingyue shook her head: "Although I suspect the child is yours, I merely have no suspicion. Without evidence, I certainly wouldn't speak randomly. How? Does Lin Wei suspect you?"

Chen Yang sighed: "Given her personality, she will definitely have someone investigate. You've dug a big pit for Qingqing!"

Su Mingyue comforted Chen Yang: "Although Lin Wei is a bit domineering, she wouldn't go to extremes. Unless that child really is yours."

Chen Yang fell silent instantly.

Su Mingyue stared at Chen Yang with earnest beautiful eyes: "Come clean, did you and Qingqing have that?"

Chen Yang gave her a white-eye roll.

Seeing this, Su Mingyue laughed directly: "Not answering is tantamount to admitting."

Chen Yang immediately warned her: "Su Mingyue, if you dare to spout nonsense in front of Lin Wei, watch out—I won't be polite."

Su Mingyue blinked and said: "How would you be impolite to me? Do you want me to have a child with you too?"

Chen Yang fell silent again.

Seeing Chen Yang not respond, Su Mingyue said resentfully: "I actually envy Qingqing—at least she dares to love and hate. As for me, I'm just your errand runner."

Chen Yang said earnestly to Su Mingyue: "There are fragrant grasses everywhere under heaven; you're still young, and you will surely find someone suitable for you in the future."

Su Mingyue sighed: "Even in Shencheng, it's not that no one pursues me. But compared to you, the difference is immediately apparent."

Chen Yang reminded her: "Everyone has their own personality; you should focus on discovering others' strengths rather than making comparisons."

Su Mingyue pouted: "Who cares about digging into whom? I'm not interested."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Chen Yang could only continue to stay silent.

Seeing this, Su Mingyue forced a cheerful laugh: "What are you afraid of? I like you, but I don't demand that you like me back. I also have no intention of competing with Lin Wei and Qingqing for anything."

Chen Yang didn't want to continue the topic; seeing that the provincial government had arrived, he immediately told Su Mingyue: "Go handle your business quickly! From now on, let's avoid discussing this."

Su Mingyue pretended to be nonchalant, shrugged her shoulders, then grabbed her briefcase and got out of the car. As she left, she didn't even glance back at Chen Yang.

Chen Yang watched her disappearing back before finally letting out a long sigh.

One Liu Qingqing is enough to give him a headache; if Su Mingyue also gets involved, it would truly be the death of him.

Inside the safety passage of the Gynecology Outpatient Department at Qingshui City People's Hospital, Lin Wei sternly questioned nurse Guan Shanshan: "Shanshan, are you hiding something from me?"

Guan Shanshan looked at Lin Wei with a puzzled expression: "Lin Wei, what could I possibly be hiding from you?"

Lin Wei lowered her voice: "Last time I asked you to help me check for infertility, are you sure my examination report is genuine?"

Upon hearing this, Guan Shanshan's face changed instantly. She softly asked Lin Wei: "How did your husband find out?"

Lin Wei immediately had an answer in mind, and she laughed exasperatedly while pointing at Guan Shanshan: "Guan Shanshan, Guan Shanshan, you little nurse have too much gall. If this gets investigated, will you still have a job?"

Guan Shanshan immediately replied with a smile: "Lin Wei, I'm not worried that your husband seeing your true report will cause a divorce with you. Moreover, I also reminded you to rest more and supplement some nutrition normally. You obviously didn't take it to heart!"

Lin Wei said unhappily: "Then you don't need to hide it from me either!"

Guan Shanshan said solemnly: "In such matters, if the person involved knows, the psychological burden actually increases, which is not conducive to conception."

Then she continued to chide Lin Wei: "Look at you, guarding a husband worth several billion yet not knowing how to cherish him, you've tanned yourself into an African. If you keep going like this, your marriage will sooner or later run into trouble."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wei's expression changed slightly. She glared at Guan Shanshan and snapped: "Keep spouting nonsense, and I'll tear your mouth apart."

Guan Shanshan stuck out her tongue, then made a gesture to shut her mouth.

Lin Wei sighed and asked her: "Tell me honestly. Is there still a cure for my problem?"

Guan Shanshan said: "It can definitely be cured; the only worry is that you lack patience. Our department has a female patient with a similar condition who conceived after taking Chinese medicine for half a year."

Lin Wei rubbed her forehead—let alone half a year, even one month she couldn't bear.

"Shanshan, isn't there any fast-acting method?"

Guan Shanshan said: "The quick‑effect method is to undergo surgery directly. But you need to set aside your work first and take at least a week off."

"Moreover, I need to tell you upfront: with our hospital's technology, the surgery isn't guaranteed to solve the problem completely."

Lin Wei sighed. She is currently at a critical juncture in her career development; taking leave is out of the question.

After repeated consideration, she still chose to solve the problem by taking Chinese medicine.

After leaving the People's Hospital, Lin Wei called Hu Qingwan.

"Mom, I have some bad news to tell you. Your daughter, I have infertility."

"Weiwei, you and Chen Yang both had checkups before—are you sure there's no problem?"

"My high school classmate, fearing it would affect my marital relationship with Chen Yang, secretly had someone alter the results."

"That classmate of yours is really clueless—how long can you hide something like this? It'll inevitably come out sooner or later."

"Mom, I want to regulate my body with Chinese medicine; can you move back and stay for a while?"

"Sure, then I'll come back tonight!"

"Isn't sister-in-law coming back?"

Your sister-in-law is being looked after by her mother, there's no problem. The medical technology here in Xingcheng is better than in Qingshui City. If you're willing to set aside your work and come here for treatment, the problem could be solved more quickly.

No way, I can't abandon my work!
