Cui Rumao's eyes moved downward inch by inch, falling on her flat belly.

His tone was light, "What did you say?"

"Anyway, I'll leave it at that. It's up to you."

After saying that, she turned around to leave, but Cui Rumao pulled her back faster and pushed her onto the sofa.

"Oh, please be gentle, be careful not to hurt the child."

Cui Rumao looked at her condescendingly, a smile spreading from his eyes, "When did it happen?"

"It's been almost two months."

Li Shiman looked left and right, but didn't meet his eyes.

Cui Rumao didn't care, his mood was obviously much gentler, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Li Shiman blinked, "I wasn't sure before, and I didn't go to the hospital for a checkup. However, I use a test every three days, and there are always two bars, and the red bar is getting more and more obvious."

The third wife, Sima Shaohui, is in charge of the management of several high-end hotels, but now they all fall into the hands of Li Charmaine!

After listening to the eldest wife's words, the second wife's expression changed several times, and finally turned into a smile.

"Shaohui is indeed stupid, but the most stupid thing about her is not that she chose the wrong path, but that she underestimated the enemy."

"Sister Feng, you are worrying too much. She may not have the brains or the courage."

……

Cui Rumao may not be able to see through her subtle tricks, but he is too lazy to care about the happy event.

After decades of being sisters-in-law, how could the eldest wife fail to see the second wife’s plans?

Huo Qingfeng turned the rosary in her hand. She was over fifty years old, with a kind face and kind eyes, and a pure heart without caring about the world, but her words were not as indifferent as she seemed on the surface.

The reason why she didn't tell her anything was of course her own purpose.

However, her regret was more due to other reasons.

The second wife was thoughtful.

"I'll ask the doctor to come and take a look at the house."

After saying that, he asked the nanny to get a mobile phone and asked Yan Zhong to make arrangements.

Li Shiman put his hand on his lower abdomen, and his bright face as big as a palm showed a bit of expectation and joy.

"You can't just look at the surface of everything, but look at the essence through the phenomenon. Whoever benefits the most will be the most suspect."

And Li Charmaine is also very clear about this. No matter how much trouble she makes, she will always be measured and never cross Cui Rumao's bottom line.

……

In the Cui family's mansion, the second wife Jiang Huiqun was chatting with the eldest wife Huo Qingfeng rather regretfully.

Watching another plane taking off from the runway and rushing into the sky, Shen Mingzhu's uneasiness gradually grew.

In fact, after she was diagnosed with pregnancy, she quietly went to a traditional Chinese medicine clinic to take her pulse and confirmed that it was a happy pulse.

"Shaohui is really confused. Just for a mere ten million yuan, he got himself involved."

The flight back to Fengcheng was originally at 7:30, but now it was almost 9 o'clock, and there was no preparation to board the plane.

I have asked the airport ground staff many times and the answer I got was "air control".

But other flights were not affected by the control, and they took off one after another as usual, which made her think too much.

"If we don't check in by nine o'clock, we will take the train back instead."

Seeing her worry, Pei Yang put his arm around her shoulders and comforted her: "Don't think too much. There might be something wrong with the plane and it's being repaired. I've encountered it several times before."

Shen Mingzhu said nothing, hesitating in her mind whether to call Li Charmaine.

"Check-in for the flight to Fengcheng is now available."

Three minutes before nine o'clock, the ground staff shouted from the boarding gate, and Shen Mingzhu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's get on the plane."

"Ah."

At this time, there were no covered bridges at the airport, and only business class or above passengers were eligible to take the shuttle bus. Economy class passengers had to walk to the plane.

Fortunately, the plane parked not far away and it only took about ten minutes to walk. Just when the two of them were about to reach the boarding stairs, they were surrounded by four strong men in black.

"Ms. Shen, if someone wants to see you, please come."

Before Shen Mingzhu could speak, Pei Yang grabbed the hand hanging by his side and said, "I'll go with you."

She turned her head, met the man's firm gaze, and said subconsciously: "Get on the plane first and wait for me."

Pei Yang shook his head.

Shen Mingzhu hugged him, stood on tiptoes and spoke a few words into his earphones.

After hearing this, Pei Yang looked at the man in black dubiously, then took Shen Mingzhu's handbag and walked towards the boarding elevator.

Shen Mingzhu followed the man in black to a small private plane.

Shen Mingzhu was not surprised at all when she boarded the cabin and saw Li Charmaine sitting by the porthole with a smile on her face.

"I just saw it all."

Li Shiman snorted: "Your husband is too unreliable. He just left you behind and boarded the plane by himself."

Shen Mingzhu was funny, "He knows you are the one who wants to see me."

"A man's mouth is a liar, don't let him deceive you."

"I told him." Shen Mingzhu pointed to a bodyguard behind him, "I saw him in the jewelry store yesterday."

Li Shiman held his chin with one hand and said in a teasing tone: "You still say, why are you running away? I am here and I will definitely protect your safety."

"Of course I believe this, I just don't want to cause you any trouble."

Hearing what she said, Li Charmaine stretched out his hands to hold hers, his expression even more sincere and grateful.

"Thanks to you yesterday, Mingzhu, thank you."

Shen Mingzhu smiled, "It was you who helped me first, and then I had the opportunity to help you. So, what you really have to thank is yourself."

Without Li Charmaine's generous help three years ago, she would not have wanted to come to Macao, let alone solve the theft case by mistake.

All we can say is that cause and effect are cyclical, and good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds.

Li Charmaine let go of her and handed her the palm-sized brocade box on the small table, "This is for you."

"what?"

"I agreed yesterday that I would give you a gift, but luckily I made it in time."

Shen Mingzhu accepted the gift with a faint smile, "It doesn't matter if you can't catch up. Anyway, you have a lot of money."

From the moment she met Li Charmaine, she was almost certain that the delay in the plane was due to him.

Li Charmaine didn't hide it, "I was going to get up early, but something happened and I had to ask you to wait for me a little longer. Are you angry?"

Shen Mingzhu shook the brocade box in his hand, "I was a little angry at first, but now I'm gone."

……

"Ladies and gentlemen, our plane will take off soon. Please fasten your seat belts..."

Hearing the announcement, Shen Mingzhu handed the brocade box to Pei Yang to hold, so that he could have both hands free to fasten the seat belt.

"what?"

"I don't know, Shiman gave it to me, I haven't had time to read it yet."

Li Shiman was very tight on time. He only let her go five minutes before departure. She was only busy catching the plane and had no time to look at the contents of the box.

"Shall I open it for you?"

"No, I'll do it myself."

The joy of opening a gift is far more fascinating than the gift itself.

But soon, Shen Mingzhu was slapped in the face.

Looking at the contents of the box, the couple looked at each other.

"Is this fake?"

"What do you think?" (End of Chapter)
