Chapter 639 - Scarlet Woman

Dragon Palace Home #10.

The next morning.

"Oh, so I’m not pregnant after all," Iris said.

She felt a pair of strong arms tightening around her waist. She turned and looked at her darling’s face who was holding her on his lap. They were sitting on the couch in their bedroom suite’s living area. This time, she couldn’t read his expression.

"The test came out negative today but that doesn’t mean anything at this point," Wang Yingjie replied, looking at his third brother who was hiding his emotions behind an unreadable expression. Nevertheless, as one of his best friends, he could vaguely tell what his third brother was feeling. He sighed and continued speaking, "I already told the two of you that it’s still too early. We’ll do this test again after your missed period—if you miss it. Is that alright with you, Xiulan?"

"Yes, of course." She paused and tilted her head to the side. "But ever since I woke up from coma for the first time, there are times that I have irregular periods especially when I become too busy working. I was told that it’s because of stress or perhaps some remaining hidden damage from the accident... Will that be a problem?"

Wang Yingjie thought for a moment before answering. "No, I looked at your medical records. You’re healthy and fit unless you’re in an accident that leave you injured like what happened during the bomb—anyway, let’s just do the pregnancy test again about a couple of weeks after the date that the two of you had unprotected sex." He turned to Jin Liwei. "That’s the day you called me, right?"

"En." Jin Liwei nodded, remembering that he indeed called his second brother after his baby girl left his office after their wild and intense lovemaking which resulted in the torn condom.

"Alright." Wang Yingjie took out his phone and looked at his schedule before making an appointment with the couple for the next pregnancy test.

With that done, he started organizing his medical equipment and stuffing them in a shiny, metal wheeled luggage. At the same time, he was advising Iris not to overwork herself while they weren’t sure yet if she was really pregnant or not.

Afterwards, the couple walked with Wang Yingjie to the grand foyer to see him off.

He bid them goodbye and drove off in his own car. A yawn broke his usual serious expression. He performed a nine-hour surgery which only ended earlier that morning. He hadn’t slept a wink yet. Although exhausted, he still dropped by his third brother’s place after leaving the hospital in order to fulfill his promise to check on Iris.

Jin Liwei had been pestering him almost every day ever since the couple had an accidental unprotected sex. Wang Yingjie was a surgeon and an extremely busy one at that, not to mention that the hospital that he worked at was one of the biggest and busiest in the country. He didn’t have a lot of free time. In addition, he wasn’t an OB-GYN. Despite this, he still granted his third brother’s request just because they were sworn brothers, the best of friends. To him, doing this much was nothing because it was for family.

Iris had her own OB-GYN but at this stage, Wang Yingjie understood why Jin Liwei would consult him instead. Both Jin Liwei and Iris were public figures. People always wanted to know what was going on in the couple’s private lives. If it was discovered that Iris Long became pregnant out of wedlock, it would incite another scandal for her, even though she was already engaged to Jin Liwei. There were always malicious people out there waiting to pounce on the smallest opportunity to pull Iris down and tarnish her increasingly glowing reputation, especially since she had offended a lot of people during her teenage years in the past.

Wang Yingjie was family, her OB-GYN wasn’t—in short, an outsider. This was why Jin Liwei preferred for him to conduct the pregnancy test on Iris. The couple could’ve just used a regular home pregnancy test but given the couple’s preference for accurate results, Wang Yingjie didn’t mind stepping in for the role even though he was a surgeon and something like this wasn’t his specialty. He also knew that the couple trusted him more than any other doctor in the world.

"I can’t wait to sleep on my bed," he talked to himself so as not to fall asleep while driving. "I still have another long surgery scheduled tonight."

Another yawn.

He smirked, remembering how his third brother almost half-carried Iris every time she walked. Wang Yingjie had no doubt that if Iris really got pregnant, there was an extremely high chance that Jin Liwei would tie her to his waist and carry her all around, not letting her walk or do anything "strenuous", until she gave birth to their first human baby.

His third brother had an innate controlling nature while Iris, as far as Wang Yingjie observed, was a headstrong and independent woman who liked to do her own thing. It was a wonder how these two fell in love with each other without constantly butting heads. If Iris really got pregnant, it would be interesting how she would deal with an ultraprotective (times a trillion) Jin Liwei. She might just go crazy and scratch his face off.

Wang Yingjie chuckled before another yawn assaulted him again. He drove on the road fighting sleep but in a good mood.

Zheng Ancestral Residence.

Three figures, two females and one male, sat around a low table in silence. Their straight backs, impassive expressions, and their obvious pride in their noble roots only magnified the ancient aura of the place.

The lady in traditional clothing was performing a tea ceremony. Her practiced movements were cultured and elegant. A delicate aroma of tea soon wafted in the room, as she served a tiny cup each to all of them.

They sipped their tea in silence, enjoying the exquisite taste of one of the most expensive and rarest teas in the world.

Zheng Suyin put down her teacup on the table without making any noise. Then her cold eyes fell on her son sitting in front of her. "The custody battle starts in a few days." It wasn’t a question but a statement.

Nevertheless, Long Hui still answered after putting down his own teacup on the table. "Yes, Mother. I need to personally appear in court or else the judge will dismiss the case."

Long Meng also placed down her teacup. The elder turned to Long Hui. "Young Master Hui, you and that boy’s mother have already separated before marrying—"

Zheng Suyin: "Thank goodness for that. That kind of lowly woman isn’t fit to be my daughter-in-law."

Long Hui’s jaw tightened. His hands under the low table clenched into tight fists. However, his face remained expressionless. He was quiet, not replying to his mother’s harsh words.

Long Meng nodded, agreeing with Zheng Suyin. "Young Master Hui, that woman and her boy have been living with Young Miss Xiulan. It also looks like they are close to that scarlet woman, Wei Lan—"

"Scarlet woman?" Zheng Suyin snorted. "There is no need for euphemisms when describing that homewrecker, Elder Meng. Wei Lan is a slut. A big SLUT."
