“Let’s not talk about this now. I will wrap up my work and take you to the hospital now or my mind won’t be at ease,” Wen Tao said and got up to finish his work.
Xiao Yaojing continued to sit on the sofa and touch her belly, still finding it unbelievable when she thought about the size that Wen Tao showed her just now.
[Mrs. Wen: Do you have a picture of you when you were pregnant with the twins in your third trimester?
Mrs. Gu: …
Mrs. Gu: Why do you need that?
Mrs. Gu: My belly was so big that I didn’t want to take pictures of myself.
Mrs. Wen: I just want to see how big your belly looks to be pregnant with twins.
Mrs. Gu: It shouldn’t be very much different, I don’t think it was that big. Let me check with my brother, he might have some pictures.]
Xiao Yaojing looked at Wen Tao who was doing his work and felt that boredom had her imagining things. She had a feeling that something was fishy about Wen Shan’s birth – there were already plenty of hospitals in the village at the time Wen Shan was born, so why did her mother-in-law have to go to the province to deliver Wen Shan?
Even if she did go through a difficult labour, it still should have been alright to deliver in any hospital in the village.
[Mrs. Gu: image
Mrs. Wen: That big? Could you see your feet?
Mrs. Gu: Are you kidding me? You won’t be able to see your feet in your fifth month. This picture was taken on my seventh month, and then I gave birth to them prematurely.
Mrs. Wen: That’s crazy.
Mrs. Gu: What’s crazy is when you are actually giving birth.
Mrs. Wen: Stop scaring me!
Mrs. Gu: Why are you suddenly so interested in this?
Mrs. Wen: I have a feeling that my mother-in-law didn’t give birth to only one baby back then. Wen Tao showed me how big his mother’s belly was when she was pregnant with Wen Shan, and it was bigger than yours in your picture. She even had to go to a hospital in the province when she had difficult labour.
Mrs. Gu: Did you come up with a conspiracy theory again?
Mrs. Wen: Trust me, I am feeling extremely bored here.
Mrs. Gu: I can tell, come and eat with me if you are bored then. Gu Juexi has gone out somewhere, I think Mo Fei is in trouble.
Mrs. Wen: A woman like her can get into trouble?
Mrs. Gu: Gu Juexi received a call before he left, I think Brother Qian has gone with them too. I wonder what happened.
Mrs. Wen: I always thought that woman was a superwoman.
Mrs. Gu: She sure is.]
After chatting for a while, Xiao Yaojing ended the chat when Wen Tao finished his work and was ready to take her to the hospital.
Meanwhile, in front of a company building, Wen Shan looked at the top of the building and then at Nalan Chunbo who had accompanied her to the place.
“She is the senior nearest to us. She is senior to me by three batches, and started working here as soon as she got her master’s degree. She refused to help when I called her earlier,” said Wen Shan.
Nalan Chunbo opened the car door and got down from the car, followed by Wen Shan.
“Let’s go inside,” Nalan Chunbo said and walked into the building together with Wen Shan, holding her hand.
Wen Shan told the receptionist that she was looking for someone then dialled the senior’s number who turned up not long after. The senior looked like she was in her thirties. She was wearing a black suit and a pair of black-framed gla.s.ses and looked just like a head of department.
She brought them to a rest area on the third floor where they sat down at a table.
“I know why you are here, Wen Shan, and I have to say that it is useless. All you can do now is admit to the allegation, or continue to be in the state that you are in now. There won’t be any other outcomes.”
“As you can see, I am already the target of attack for everyone in academia. I have nothing to lose now,” said Wen Shan mockingly, “but do you really not mind that he gets away with it all the time?”
