Chapter 688 - 691: Chenxing’s Pregnancy Diary 8_1

At this point, Gu Shaocheng was still socializing with some investors at the banquet. He received a call and meandered to a quieter corner of the banquet hall. As he walked, he asked in a low voice, "What’s the matter?"

"Brother, there’s something I’ve been thinking about, and it doesn’t feel right," Hua Hua spoke frankly, "Today, sister-in-law came to visit me, um, please don’t get mad yet, I just want to ask if you’ve ever mentioned to her about using a child as a trade deal?"

"Huh?" Gu Shaocheng made a gesture at the approaching Leng Tong to stop. Leng Tong stalled and stood a few meters away.

"I mean, did sister-in-law know about the child transaction deal from years ago?"

Gu Shaocheng, slightly intoxicated, answered nonchalantly, "No."

"Ah?" Over the phone, Hua Hua suddenly screamed, "It’s over, I’ve been tricked by sister-in-law."

"..."

"Brother, don’t, don’t be mad at me."

"What exactly did you say?" Gu Shaocheng pressed his temple.

"I said it all. I even comforted her and told her you had no choice. She also said she would understand. But it’s strange. You never told her. How did sister-in-law know? Because she said you told her. She even said she knew about the child trade deal, so I talked about it. Why sister-in-law wanted to trick me is beyond me."

Gu Shaocheng suddenly sobered up and after a moment’s silence, he snapped, "I should sew your mouth shut! You don’t think at all!"

Poor Hua Hua, Gu Shaocheng had already terminated the call. He dialed home, asked the butler what Chenxing was doing, and found out that she hadn’t returned home. She said she was going to Fengchi’s house to have dinner with Luo Xi. This put him half at ease, but considering it, he left early.

When he arrived at Fengchi’s house, no one was there.

Fengchi wasn’t home, and Luo Xi shook his head, "She never came."

A heavy feeling settled in Gu Shaocheng’s heart. Where had she gone?

He called the hidden guard assigned to Chenxing, only to find out that she was by herself in a karaoke parlour; this allowed him to heave a sigh of relief.

There were a lot of phone calls that evening. The butler called again, "Sir, is Miss Chenxing at Young Master Yan’s house?"

"No, she went to sing at the karaoke parlour by herself."

The butler made a sound of acknowledgement, "That’s good. After you find Miss Chenxing, please take her to the hospital. Recently, she has been feeling down because you were not at home. She has lost her appetite and has been vomiting occasionally. But Doctor Tian is not at home, so we don’t know if she has upset her stomach or is pregnant..."

With a thud, the phone dropped.

The next second, Gu Shaocheng quickly picked up the phone. The call was still in progress and his voice rose sharply, "What did you say? Pregnant?"

His heart felt like it was in his throat.

The butler hesitated in his explanation, "I am not certain either, I am merely speculating. It could be that due to her poor mental state, her immune system has weakened, and she fell ill. Miss Chenxing has been vomiting occasionally and sleeping a lot, not to mention her aversion to heavy food, um, her menstruation for this month hasn’t yet occurred."

Such a personal matter was no secret in the Gu family.

The butler was in charge of household matters. The maid who cleaned the bathroom every day naturally knew if Chenxing’s menstruation hadn’t occurred and were obliged to report this to him. If it was a gynecological disease, she would need medication to adjust her condition, all of which were matters within his purview.
