My newlywed husband is infertile, but I’m pregnant

Huo Sijiao’s pretty face was pale.

She took a sip of warm water, and when she felt her throat was better, she said, "Sister-in-law, I'm not drunk. I was pushed down by someone, but I didn't see who it was."

She was a little annoyed.

Qiao Xi was shocked when she heard this. Huo Xingzhou's face became even gloomier.

"When I fell into the water, many people jumped in to save me. But I didn't know those people. They didn't seem to be there to save me. They just wanted to tear off my clothes. I had no choice but to swim farther and farther. My calves were cramping, and I thought I was going to die."

Huo Sijiao is usually a very bold person, but she trembles when she mentions what happened tonight.

Clearly frightened.

Her eyes were a little wet: "They are not here to kill me."

No one should be so bold in public. If Huo Sijiao died, the Xie family and the Huo family might bite people like mad dogs.

But if her clothes fell off while she was saving someone, who could she blame?

The bodyguards of the Pei family saved her life.

"They wanted to strip me naked and leave me on the deck for everyone to see."

When Huo Sijiao thought of this purpose, she covered her chest and felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

This tactic is vicious but effective.

By then, who knows who will be sent to take the video and photos, and they will spread out. From now on, when she appears in public, she will be like she is not wearing any clothes, and those people will whisper to her and talk about her.

If someone had a weaker psychological endurance, they might be driven to death by such rumors.

Qiao Xi reached out and held Huo Sijiao's hand.

She found that her fingers were shaking and her palms were cold.

"Don't be afraid, Jiaojiao. They didn't succeed."

"Sister-in-law, their methods are too vicious! Who is targeting me like this? Is it the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Pei family? Or is it some other enemy we have provoked?"

Huo Xingzhou said calmly: "There are surveillance cameras on the deck. I have sent Lao Chen to retrieve the surveillance."

“Will they give it?”

"Whether it will or not, it won't affect your judgment."

Huo Xingzhou's eyes were cold. "If they don't give it to you, it means that the Pei family has something wrong with them. They did it."

After a while, Lao Chen came in as expected.

"Master, the Pei family said that the surveillance on the deck was broken and could not be retrieved, but they will strengthen patrols. They will never let drunk people act alone again and cause accidents. They are very sorry that the young lady fell into the water and are preparing to send gifts."

Huo Sijiao was very excited when she heard this: "They think I fell into the water accidentally? Someone pushed me! I was pushed hard, I didn't fall in by myself! It must have been that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who did it, so they said that the Pei family's surveillance was broken!"

Xie Xubai hugged her tightly and whispered to comfort her: "Don't get excited, we will find evidence. You won't suffer in vain this time, don't be afraid. I will always be by your side and won't let those people take advantage of you again."

Qiao Xi felt indescribable pain in her heart.

If she hadn't humiliated the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law too much when she was in the studio.

Wouldn't the other party be so ruthless?

She regretted it a little.

"Jiaojiao, I'm sorry. I..."

"Sister-in-law, why are you saying sorry to me? It was those people who did something wrong."

"But if I hadn't gone too far and sent flowers to the Pei family..." She regretted letting Huo Sijiao suffer such harm.

"Even if we didn't do anything, the Pei family won't let us go! Sister-in-law, you must not blame yourself!" Huo Sijiao's tears fell, "I'm fine, I was just excited for a moment."

Qiao Xi felt worse and worse. Huo Xingzhou put his arm around her shoulders and said softly, "This matter is not over yet, and the engagement party is not over yet."

Xie Xubai suddenly raised his head and looked at him, asking inquiringly: "Is something going to happen tonight?"

"It's going to happen, just wait a little longer. Just take care of Jiaojiao here, I've arranged everything else."

"What did you design?"

"It can't be said that I designed it, but someone just wanted to do it. This may be a case of one's own fault. When someone comes back, everything will be revealed. As long as the Pei family's cameras are operating normally, we can get the surveillance video. Even if it is deleted, it can be restored."

Because someone has a trump card in his hand, the top hacker Fei Luan.

Xie Xubai nodded: "Then I'll wait for your news. Just let me know if you need help."

"Ah."

Huo Xingzhou looked down at Qiao Xi and said, "Let's go downstairs first."

Qiao Xi looked back somewhat worriedly and found that Xie Xubai was able to calm Huo Sijiao's emotions quite well.

"sister in law!"

Huo Sijiao suddenly shouted, "I also heard a secret."

Her expression looked complicated. She looked at them and said, "Pei Zheng seems to have a son abroad. Zhao Zhenmei knows where the child is. But we in the imperial capital have never heard that he has a son. We only know that Zhao Yaru gave birth to two daughters for him."

son?

The three were a little surprised when they heard Huo Sijiao say this.

Huo Sijiao pursed her lips and said, "Maybe I heard it wrong, but I think if it's true, there must be a big secret in it."

Huo Xingzhou nodded and said, "I will send someone to investigate. Don't tell anyone else about this, and don't get involved. Just pretend you didn't hear it... Pei Zheng shouldn't have discovered that you were eavesdropping, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to come out of the sea alive tonight."

Huo Sijiao bit her lip.

Xie Xubai gently held her hand: "Don't be afraid."

"Ah."

After Huo Xingzhou finished speaking, he pulled Qiao Xi out of the room.

Huo Xingzhou looked at her lost expression and said, "You don't need to blame yourself for Jiaojiao's matter. This incident also serves as a good reminder to Xie Xubai that some people should be dealt with as soon as possible, rather than keeping them waiting for the right opportunity. No one can guard against thieves for a thousand days, and there will always be times when they are careless."

Even he could not guarantee that Qiao Xi would be safe under his protection.

Qiao Xi lowered her head and responded, "Yeah."

The two walked down the banquet hall.

Qiao Xi leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Is Zhong Yi not back yet?"

Huo Xingzhou smiled and said, "No, the real show will begin when he comes back."

It also takes a while to drive from here to the Imperial Capital Hospital and then back.

Qiao Xi looked around and found that several conspicuous people were missing.

Sudden.

Qiao Xi heard voices coming from beside her.

Zhong Lingxiao's assistant found Zhao Yaru and said that Young Master Zhong was drunk and wanted to send her a bowl of sobering soup.

Zhao Yaru was in charge of the banquet's scheduling. When she heard the request, she responded, "Ask the kitchen staff to prepare it. Did Young Master Zhong drink a lot? Do you need some more snacks to fill your stomach?"

"It's okay. Maybe he's not in a good state recently. He originally wanted to chat with your husband, but he got drunk and lay in the Pei family's lounge for a long time. He just sobered up now."

Pei family lounge?

Zhao Yaru was stunned. Whose voice did she hear when she went to Zhong Lingxiao's lounge just now?

Her thoughts were in a mess, but she saw Zhong Lingxiao, who looked unhappy, slowly walking down the stairs.

There is no Zhao Zhenmei behind him?
