Zhuang Yi was totally unaware of this. While driving, she called Lu Xi to complain, "Do you think his mom is sick?! I don't even know where she heard that from! I'm so pissed off! She actually said that I cheated on Jiang Yizhou!"

"Damn it, I'm only 22, and I've liked Jiang Yizhou for several years. I finally got married, but I'm still cuckolded! If I didn't like Jiang Yizhou, I would have been in love eight or ten times just based on the young handsome guys chasing after me. Wouldn't that be uncomfortable?!

"The more I talk about it, the more I regret it. If I had started dating earlier, I might have found that I didn't like the person I liked so much before. I'm just too short-sighted."

Zhuang Yi was so angry that he could say such angry words.

Lu Xi had just finished an interview with the filming crew. He asked Secretary Fang to send them out, then leaned back in his boss's chair and listened to Zhuang Yi chattering away.

After Zhuang Yi stopped talking, she advised, "Don't be angry. Anger is harmful to your health. You are so angry that you want to die. Others have not suffered any loss. It's not worth it."

"They say that, but when it happens to me, I get really angry. Really, I feel so speechless. The more I think about it, the angrier I get."

As Zhuang Yi was speaking, a phone call suddenly came in. "Wait a moment, I'll take the call."

After the call was connected, Jiang Yizhou's voice came from inside: "Zhuang Yi, come back immediately!"

"Why go back? To let your mother continue to irritate me? And what's the tone of your voice? Who are you ordering?"

"My mom's in trouble!"

Zhuang Yi subconsciously wanted to roll her eyes, thinking, what could possibly happen? Aren't we in the hospital? And it's not time for surgery yet.

But then he realized something was wrong. If it wasn't serious, Jiang Yizhou would not have made this call.

Zhuang Yi suddenly had a bad feeling and called Lu Xi again on the way to the hospital.

"Something bad seems to have happened to Jiang Yizhou's mother. I'm unsure. Come with me and I'll pick you up!"

When Zhuang Yi picked up Lu Xi and they arrived at the hospital, Ling Peipei was still in the emergency room.

Jiang Yizhou's face was as pale as paper, almost without a trace of blood. Jiang Buhui was also in a daze, as if his soul had been sucked out of him.

"Brother Jiang." Lu Xi spoke first.

Jiang Yizhou looked up suddenly, his scarlet eyes filled with tears.

“What’s going on? Why is it…” Zhuang Yi’s mind was a little confused now. Could it be that he was angry with her?

Jiang Yizhou looked at Zhuang Yi's innocent face and for a moment he didn't know what to say to her.

He had a lot of questions to ask, but he was afraid that asking them would hurt her. He was also worried about Ling Peipei's situation.

Jiang Buhui stepped forward and asked angrily: "It's all your fault! If Yizhou's mother can't be saved, I won't let you, the banker, go!"

Zhuang Yi gritted her teeth, and Lu Xi stood in front of her best friend, "Uncle Jiang, don't be impulsive. The most important thing now is my aunt."

"Why don't you say something?" Zhuang Yi was a little anxious and urged Jiang Yizhou.

Jiang Yizhou calmed himself down and organized his words. Although his voice was hoarse and painful, he still tried to ask her in a gentle tone: "What did you say in the ward? Did anything irritate my mother? Her aorta is ruptured."

Zhuang Yi's brain buzzed and there was a moment of blankness.

Aortic rupture can be fatal, and the chances of rescue are extremely small!

Is Ling Peipei's condition really that serious?

But after a few seconds of silence, she suddenly realized that Jiang Yizhou thought his mother was angry with her?

She said angrily, "What else can I say? It was your mother who was aggressive first, saying that I was fickle, that I cheated on you, and that I was pregnant with a bastard. She also knew that your marriage certificate with Shen Youran was fake. She said she wanted me to divorce you, and if I didn't, I wouldn't do the surgery today. I said it's up to you.

"That's all I have to say. She was fine when I left. Don't try to put the blame on me. I won't take the blame!"

Zhuang Yi became more and more excited as she spoke, and suddenly she remembered her uncle's previous attitude towards Lu Xi.

Before Jiang Yizhou could say anything, Jiang Buhui asked in a sad tone, "You knew she couldn't stand the stimulation, but you still provoked her with words. You didn't even think about her body!"

Zhuang Yi clenched his fists, "You are going too far!"

Jiang Yizhou also looked at Jiang Buhui with red eyes, "Dad!"

Jiang Buhui gritted his teeth and threw his hands aside angrily.

Then, Jiang Yizhou said in a deep voice: "I don't doubt your intention. I know that no matter how much you dislike my mother, you won't deliberately anger her. I just want to know what happened at that time!"

After a pause, he continued, "Why did she say for no reason that the baby in her belly was not mine?"

Zhuang Yi replied angrily, "How would I know that?! If you ask me, who should I ask? You ask me this, you don't think I'm deliberately provoking your mother and telling her about the marriage certificate, right?"

She is still very angry and it is totally inexplicable.

If her mother knew this, she would be furious!

Neither Zhuang Yi nor Jiang Yizhou spoke, but the atmosphere was suffocatingly tense.

Lu Xi frowned and said, "None of us told her, and it is absolutely impossible for her to mention the child for no reason. Someone must have instigated this."

Zhuang Yi also suddenly realized, "She had been trying to call Shen Youran before, could it be Shen Youran?"

Jiang Yizhou's expression was stern, "From the video, my mother did make a call, but it's not in the call records.

"Could it be that she deleted it?" Lu Xi thought about it.

"My mother doesn't have the habit of deleting call records." Jiang Yizhou is sure of this.

However, Lu Xi still sent a message to Pei Shaoqing, so that Pei Shaoqing could find out the answer after checking.

Pei Shaoqing was also very helpful. He retrieved the call records in just a few minutes and sent them to Lu Xi. He also sent a video call. "There are call records in the cloud backup, but it's not Shen Youran's number. It's an unfamiliar number."

"Can you find the recording file?" Jiang Yizhou asked from the side.

Pei Shaoqing shook his head, "No, this phone doesn't have the automatic recording function turned on."

"Brother Pei, thank you." Lu Xi expressed his sincere gratitude.

Pei Shaoqing said seriously, "You're welcome. Let's not talk about it for now. Brother Jiang's mother is still being rescued."

Lu Xi nodded, hung up the video, ran to the side, borrowed a mobile phone from the cleaning lady, and dialed back the number shown on the call log.

But the other party did not answer.

Lu Xi called twice but no one answered. She walked back to Zhuang Yi and Jiang Yizhou and said, "No one answered. Wait for Brother Pei's message and see if we can find out."

At this time Shen Youran came.

As soon as Zhuang Yi saw Shen Youran, he became furious. He rushed over, raised his hand and slapped Shen Youran in the face with a "pa" sound.

Shen Youran seemed to be shocked and took a breath of cold air, "Zhuang Yi, are you crazy?"

Jiang Yizhou was also slightly startled and immediately stepped forward to stop Zhuang Yi.

"Let me go! Why are you stopping me?! I want to beat this vicious woman to death!"

Jiang Yizhou reminded in a deep voice, "There is no evidence yet."

"I don't need any evidence! I know it's definitely her!"

Zhuang Yi was very confident and glared at Shen Youran fiercely, "Shen Youran, how dare you come here?"

Shen Youran raised her chin slightly, "What have I done that is against the law? Is it not okay for me to just come to see my aunt?"

"Bah! Your character is ruined, why are you still pretending to be pure and kind?! You called me before, right? You slandered me that my child is not Jiang Yizhou's, right?"

Zhuang Yi was filled with indignation.

Shen Youran looked calm and composed. "I don't understand what you are saying. I came here simply to see my aunt. She was very kind to me before, and now she suddenly has to undergo surgery. It is reasonable for me to come and see her."

Before Zhuang Yi could say anything, Lu Xi pulled her best friend aside and said, "She must have made sufficient preparations. She knew you had no evidence, so she came here without any fear."

Although Zhuang Yi was filled with righteous indignation, she still listened to her best friend's words.

Seeing Lu Xi using a borrowed phone to call that number, and the call display showing that the call was connected, she widened her eyes, quickly poked Lu Xi, and said, "Xi..."
