After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family

Chapter 298

Qin Xian was quite familiar with them, so when he saw their expressions, he knew they were hiding something.

It wasn't exactly a secret, but more of a gut feeling shared by two men, who felt that the scene of Ke Yun'er coming to find Yu Yue was rather peculiar.

At that time, Yu Yue was trying to comfort Bai Xiaoxi, the two of them whispering to each other. Jing Yan and Luo Fei assumed that Bai Xiaoxi was just upset about something, so they naturally didn't eavesdrop.

Then, Ke Yun'er, the bride of the wedding, came over. Her tone was full of grievance, and her expression was pleading. "I've been looking for you. Why didn't you pick up the phone?"

To be honest, Jing Yan and Luo Fei felt a shiver run down their spines. It was as if their friend's girlfriend had come looking for him.

Yu Yue was also taken aback, but he and Bai Xiaoxi were both hiding something, so they didn't react the same way as Luo Fei and Jing Yan.

"What?" Yu Yue asked.

"I... I'm not feeling well. I'm a bit worried. Can you come over?"

Yu Yue's expression changed slightly. Without saying much, he got up and followed Ke Yun'er.

This scene left Jing Yan and Luo Fei dumbfounded.

Was Ke Yun'er really okay? If she wasn't feeling well, she should have gone to her husband! It wasn't that they were overly self-confident, but the way Ke Yun'er looked at their friend was so strange that it could only be interpreted in a suspicious way.

And their friend's reaction was also surprising. Normally, he was completely indifferent to other women, and he never showed any extra care to any of his previous stepmothers. Why was he treating Ke Yun'er differently? Was it just because she might be carrying his half-siblings?

Looking at Bai Xiaoxi, she didn't seem to have a strong reaction either. Could it be that they were overreacting?

So for the moment, they didn't say anything.

Naturally, their encounter didn't escape Ji Fei's attention. Ji Fei had already finished "eating the melon" (gossiping), and Qin Xian and the other Qin family members had also heard the gist of it.

Although they felt something was off, they didn't want to jump to conclusions about a bizarre relationship, especially since they knew the reason behind it.

But the next moment, Guo Yalan tore off the veil of shame.

"What the heck? Why is this stepmother always looking for her stepson for everything? Is she marrying the dad or the son? Isn't she trying to pull off some kind of stepmother romance novel?"

This remark made Cen Ting, who was sipping tea, spray it out without any regard for her image.

Jing Yan quickly handed over a napkin.

Cen Ting glared at Guo Yalan, the culprit.

"Why are you all looking at me like that? A young stepmother and a handsome stepson, that's not uncommon abroad." Guo Yalan smirked. "Besides, there's no blood relation, and they're about the same age, so they should avoid suspicion. That woman's behavior is already inappropriate, but what's even more messed up is Yu Yue. When did he start being so polite and filial? Instead of helping his dad greet the guests, he leaves his girlfriend behind to deal with his stepmother's issues. That's not like him. I suspect something's up."

Normally, Ji Fei would be complaining along with Guo Yalan about Yu Yue and Ke Yun'er, but they knew the truth—it was because of the miscarriage incident that Yu Yue was cooperating. So they couldn't really blame them and could only laugh awkwardly.

After Guo Yalan finished her rant, she ignored the stunned looks of everyone present and reached out to Bai Xiaoxi. "Xiaoxi, don't worry. If Yu Yue dares to wrong you, we'll stand up for you!"

Bai Xiaoxi finally managed to catch her breath and waved her hand. "No, you're really misunderstanding."

Guo Yalan shrugged. "I hope it's just my imagination running wild."

Bai Xiaoxi wanted to deny it all at once, but something made her pause. Her pupils trembled slightly, and then she said firmly, "Yu Yue wouldn't!"

?Strange, Bai Xiaoxi's reaction seems to suggest she's also suspicious of some stepmother romance, doesn't it?? Ji Fei couldn't help but wonder, as sometimes a girlfriend's intuition is the truth.

This thought startled the Qin family trio nearby.

What kind of stepmother romance? Was it what they thought it was?

Wasn't it because of the miscarriage?

?Wait, what? A photo??

Qin family: A photo? What kind of photo? The stepmother romance kind?

Qin Xian was also intrigued, and even paused while adjusting his wife's coat.

?A photo from a few years ago, showing Ke Yun'er and Yu Yue sitting together drinking. Bai Xiaoxi had been impulsive and pulled on Ke Yun'er's phone, causing her to be startled and fall, leading to the miscarriage. Because of the bigger incident, Bai Xiaoxi had forgotten about the photo, but now it came back to her... So she's not entirely sure if Yu Yue's claim that he doesn't know Ke Yun'er is true or not.?

Qin Xian frowned: Do those two know each other?

Qin family: Could they have been a couple? Is this that kind of drama?

?If Yu Yue has been lying to her, she'll be heartbroken, because she still remembers the scene of Ke Yun'er falling and clinging to Yu Yue, who came to help. Ke Yun'er was sobbing pitifully in Yu Yue's arms, trembling and calling out his name, saying, 'My child, my child...' That scene is like an invisible thorn, making Bai Xiaoxi unsure how to define it. After all, she was the one who caused the death of an innocent child. She feels she's too guilty to focus on other details.?

Qin family: ...Well, this is getting more and more dramatic.

Qin Xian, who wasn't very perceptive about delicate emotions, just felt that if it were him, he would find Ke Yun'er's behavior annoying and wouldn't want to get involved.

?Huh, I'm getting a weak, white lotus vibe from her. Oddly enough, from Yu Yue's side, it seems he genuinely doesn't know Ke Yun'er. All his concern for her now is just to make sure she doesn't expose Bai Xiaoxi.?

Qin family: Good, good. It's not some ridiculous relationship.

Qin Xian: ...Not necessarily.

Because he knew Ji Fei's "eating melon" system was from a personal perspective. If Yu Yue genuinely didn't remember, or in his consciousness, he never knew this person, then for Yu Yue, it's as if he doesn't know her.

Like a passerby you met on the street, you didn't leave an impression, so you don't know them. But the other person has a deep impression of you and even has a photo of the encounter. It's hard to explain the situation.

Bai Xiaoxi was uneasy, so she got up and went to find Yu Yue.

Her reaction seemed a bit anxious to everyone present. They had all watched this couple come this far and naturally wanted to help maintain their relationship. So they all thought about talking to Yu Yue later, reminding him to be careful about his relationship with his stepmother.

Meanwhile, Yu Yue was utterly stunned.

He looked at the woman in front of him, who had the demeanor of a clinging vine, gazing at him with pleading eyes. He couldn't believe it and even dug his ear, "Did I hear you wrong just now?"

Ke Yun'er's eyes were full of grievance. "Do you have to pretend you don't understand? Fine, I'll be straightforward. I want you to father another child with me, so we can cover this up."

?Let me see if they've reached a conclusion... Ahhh!?

Ji Fei's thoughts made the Qin family collectively lose their heartbeat. What happened?!

?This stepmother-stepson relationship really has a hidden bomb! Is she planning to use her stepson to have a child?!?

Qin family: What? What? Use what? Have what? What did I just hear? My ears feel dirty.
