454. Chapter 454 Too Exaggerated

Shi Lin pouted, unconvinced.

Xie Yin ignored Shi Lin, she turned to the Manor Physician and asked: "Jiang Manor Physician, roughly how long until we can confirm?"

"This, this I can't say for sure right now."

Jiang Manor Physician hesitated and said.

Before Shi Lin could say anything,

Jiang Manor Physician continued: "Eight or nine out of ten, you're carrying twins; twins differ from a normal pregnancy, so you'll need to be extra careful from now on."

Upon hearing that,

Shi Lin immediately said to Jiang Manor Physician: "You're not to scare my wife from now on; if anything happens to her, I'll come to you first."

Jiang Manor Physician: "……"

When did he scare Qiao Sheng?

Nowadays, are we not even allowed to speak the truth?

But thinking back to what he himself had said earlier,

Jiang Manor Physician didn't argue with Shi Lin, merely instructing them on how to care for Qiao Sheng going forward—what to eat, dietary details, and what to watch out for in daily life.

Xie Yin was uneasy about Qiao Sheng, so she had them move back.

Shi Lin had no objection.

Qiao Sheng also had no objection, so they moved back to the Shi Residence.

As soon as Shi Lin returned home, he started giving orders left and right, seeming to want to rearrange the entire household.

Qiao Sheng thought he was being too exaggerated, grabbed him and said: "Husband, don't make a fuss; things are fine as they are. If this gets out, people will laugh at us."

"What's so exaggerated? Not to mention our Shi family for generations, even looking across the Imperial Capital, women carrying twins are extremely rare; you are now a treasure in our household."

After saying that, Shi Lin added: "Speaking of which, I also deserve credit—if it weren't for me, could you have conceived twins?"

Qiao Sheng couldn't help but laugh.

"You're still praising yourself."

Shi Lin puffed out his chest: "That's a must."

Qiao Sheng worried that the person who had tried to harm her was still not giving up.

She said to Shi Lin: "Husband, let's not spread this matter for now…"

Shi Lin nodded.

Now the only ones who know about this are him, Qiao Sheng, the Manor Physician, and his mother.

If this gets out,

then it must have been leaked by one of them.

Ji Xue now had no idea what to do.

She hadn't succeeded.

And she had Feng An Nuan clean up the aftermath.

Feng An Nuan had the heart to kill her, but in the end she still didn't do it.

First, Ji Xue was still somewhat useful; second, she didn't want to dirty her own hands because of her.

But she didn't want to.

Her hands were already not clean.

The person who had previously delivered food to Shi Lin's annex was a young man in his teens.

Shi Lin's subordinates traced his identity, went to his family, and found he was already dead.

After examination by Qi Qingfeng,

he had stabbed himself to death with a knife.

Shi Lin questioned each of his family members.

His family all said he had shown nothing unusual beforehand.

If they hadn't come, they wouldn't have known he was dead.

They merely thought he felt unwell and was sleeping in his room.

They also didn't know whom he had contacted before then.

The trail just ended there.

Shi Lin was furious.

He somewhat suspected Feng An Nuan was involved, but lacking evidence, he couldn't well act against her.

Upon learning that Shi Lin had sent people to watch her, Feng An Nuan dared do nothing further at that moment.

Ouyang Yuefeng heard about this.

The first to suspect was also her.

Ouyang Yuefeng, who had once liked Feng An Nuan, didn't want her to end up badly, so he came to advise her: "Feng An Nuan, settle down; don't do anything to Qiao Sheng anymore, or there won't be a good outcome."

Damn it!

He actually came to warn me for her sake.

Feng An Nuan put on an innocent face and said: "Feng brother, what are you talking about? What do I do to Qiao Sheng?! What have I done to her? I haven't done anything!"
