Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

A few days have passed since the bidding meeting, and the Chinese New Year is getting closer.

After Tang Junyao and Su Xue moved in together, the two became inseparable, like conjoined twins, basically going back and forth between the hospital and home.

Occasionally, she would go out for a late-night snack after her night shift, but the rest of the time she would cook at home, and Su Xue also liked Tang Junyao's cooking.

As the Lunar New Year approaches, more and more people are coming to the hospital for checkups. Many elderly people hope to have a checkup before the New Year so they can be healthy during the holiday. As a result, the workload has increased significantly in the past few days.

In contrast, Su Xue's room was much emptier. Don't be fooled by the large number of people coming and going from the obstetrics and gynecology department every day; hospitals also have peak and off-peak seasons for childbirth.

The end of August is the peak season for newborns in Beijing, and the reason is quite clear: babies born at the end of August can enroll in school that year, while those born after September have to wait a year to enroll.

This prompts many mothers to calculate the days until they conceive.

Of course, many wealthy people have children and get pregnant at will; money can make the devil turn the millstone.

It was almost noon.

Su Xue was calling out numbers when a very young girl pushed open the door and entered. She glanced at Su Xue timidly and shyly, then turned around, politely closed the door, glanced at Su Xue again, sat down, and lowered her head in embarrassment.

Patients are all different.

Su Xue had a pretty good idea of ​​what was wrong, and patiently asked, "Where do you feel unwell?"

The girl kept her head down, her hands nervously fidgeting with her fingernails. "I...I had a delay."

Su Xue wasn't surprised. Having worked in the outpatient clinic for so many years, she could tell. "What day of the month does your period usually come?"

The girl still didn't dare to look up, and whispered, "Number 6."

The voice was very soft, but she heard it. "Go get a urine test, and bring me the results in half an hour."

The girl spoke very softly, not daring to look up the entire time, only saying "Oh."

Watching the girl's retreating figure, she couldn't help but sigh. Another girl who didn't take precautions. How could she have no sense of self-protection?

This thing shouldn't be about making the man feel good while she suffers. She's a doctor and doesn't recommend abortions. Even if a patient needs this surgery, she always asks someone else to do it. She has never killed a life herself.

She couldn't bear it; after all, it was a living, breathing little life.

The system at the Imperial Capital Hospital is different from other hospitals; perhaps the hospital director wants to take an unconventional approach.

Internal medicine doctors can follow the operating room and learn from surgeons, and obstetricians and gynecologists can also see pregnant women up to 3 months old when they are busy.

Logically, pregnant women under three months of gestation should have their gynecological examinations done before registering for prenatal care. After three months, they should register for prenatal care and be transferred to the obstetrics and gynecology department. At least that's how other hospitals arrange it.

During lunch.

Su Xue shared this with her best friend, looking at her exhausted face, and said, "Yao Yao, let me tell you, another girl came to my clinic this morning. I guess she got pregnant without using protection. I gave her a referral for a urine test, but she didn't come back after get off work. I guess she's pregnant. I hope she doesn't go to a private clinic."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Junyao seemed to realize something, and her expression turned a little flustered. "What's the date of Xiaoxue today?"

Su Xue glanced at her, "You're really stunned, today is the 12th..." Then Ye stopped abruptly, as if she had thought of something.

She remembered her best friend's period; their periods were around the same time—they started on the 5th, and hers started on the 7th, so...

Tang Junyao thought to herself, "It can't be that bad, can it?"

But I still feel a little uneasy!

Su Xue panicked when she heard this. She looked around at the people eating in the cafeteria and whispered, "Yao Yao, mine seems to be late too. It shouldn't be..." She drew out the last "it shouldn't be" because she didn't believe it herself.

Tang Junyao comforted herself, "It shouldn't be. Don't scare yourself. It's probably just that I've been too busy lately and my endocrine system is out of balance."

Su Xue hesitated to argue, "But I have so much free time."

Tang Junyao: "........."

Su Xue swallowed hard and said awkwardly, "How about we go to the pharmacy after get off work this afternoon and buy two test kits, and test our first urine tomorrow morning?"

After they made their decision, they were both a little restless at work in the afternoon.

Here.

In the president's office of the Ji Group, Xu Mingkai held a stack of documents in a file folder.

She pushed open the door and placed the documents directly on the man's desk, beginning to explain the matter: "Young Master Ji, the matter you asked me to investigate last time has been clarified."

Upon hearing this, the man opened his mouth with a cold face. In the past few days, he had been exuding an aura of "keep away, I'm very angry."

It's almost as if they've written "I'm angry" on their foreheads.

It wasn't just the people in the secretariat who were living with their breath in suffocation; the same was true for the marketing and planning departments.

He reached out his long, slender, pale fingers, picked up the documents on the table, opened them, glanced at them—the summary was very simple—and narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly before asking, "Is the chef from Lan Cheng?"

Xu Mingkai truthfully replied to the information he had found: "Yes, Young Master Ji, this chef is a resident of Lancheng. He applied for Tihou because he wanted to develop his career in the capital. The introduction is very simple. I'm afraid we'll need to ask Young Master Han for more details."

Xu Mingkai believes that Han Shao must have screened his recruits.

Given Han Shao's background, investigating anyone should be easier for him than for me.

As for why Ji Shao didn't ask Han Shao to investigate, Xu Mingkai didn't know either.

The man continued to flip through the second page of documents, which contained information about the two servants in the mansion and their past. According to the documents, the two servants had never left the capital and were native to the capital. His gaze fell on the last name on this page, and his handsome brows furrowed tightly.

Jiang Rui is an orphan who was adopted by the Jiang family from an orphanage when she was a child. She became the Jiang family's daughter and the apple of their eye.

With the general content clear, he looked up and asked, "Are you sure there are no problems with the information?"

Xu Mingkai affirmed, "No, the last piece of information was confirmed after checking it several times. It's just that the Jiang family has never told outsiders that the eldest daughter of the Jiang family was adopted. According to people around them, the Jiang family valued this daughter very much. She was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. It can be seen that the Jiang family put a lot of effort into cultivating her and also shows that they loved this daughter very much. She married Tang Xin at the age of 26, the year that the Tang family fell into the financial crisis. After that, the Jiang family invested a large sum of money that year, which brought the Tang family back to life."

She is, after all, Ji Shao's former mother-in-law, so one cannot call her by her first name.

Xu Mingkai recounted everything he had learned to him in detail.

Since getting their marriage certificate, Ji Hancheng had never cared about this woman's background. This time, he wanted to investigate something he was curious about, but he didn't expect to find out such a big piece of information.

If he hadn't investigated, Jiang Rui would probably have remained the only daughter of the Jiang family for her entire life.

According to the information, the Jiang family is the benefactor of the Tang family. So, last time at the Tang family, it was clear that Tang Xin did not like this daughter, but preferred Tang Junting. It was even obvious that he had a direct dislike for Tang Junyao. What is the inside story behind this?

After a long pause, Ji Hancheng finally spoke: "Can't we find out who Jiang...Rui's biological parents are?"

For some reason, I feel inexplicably embarrassed to use those two words directly.

Xu Mingkai was somewhat annoyed by this. "Young Master Ji, it's been a long time. It's difficult to find out every detail of what happened 49 years ago. Back then, there weren't such advanced systems for recording things; everything was on paper. With the passage of time, it's impossible to find anything. The previous dean has also passed away. According to the available information, the young mistress was born when the eldest daughter of the Jiang family was 26 years old. Should we... continue investigating?"

"Investigate, investigate this matter as before, and investigate again the true relationship between Tang Junting and Tang Xin."

Xu Mingkai: Is Young Master Ji secretly investigating things for his wife, planning to win her back?

Information about a deceased mother-in-law is probably not that easy to find!

Unable to contain her excitement, her eyes sparkled, "Young Master Ji, are you going to help the young mistress? Are you planning to win her back?"

Ji Hancheng gave him a cold glance. "You're very free. Did I say I was going to pursue her?"

Xu Mingkai: "No, no, I'm busy." Just keep being arrogant. You'll regret it when the young mistress gets chased away.
