After Wei Yumeng learned the results of the investigation, she still found it hard to believe. Was it all just her overthinking?
Perhaps this was truly just a coincidence?
But she still clearly remembered Song Lijun's reminder. No matter how Chen Yutong tried to avoid the issue, Wei Yumeng felt her judgment was not wrong.
Moreover, Fang Xun's investigation had basically relied on indirect channels to ascertain the doctor's character, with no direct proof.
However, it was true that this matter could not be directly proven anyway.
Since it couldn't be proven, it meant there were countless possibilities.
So, she could only confide in Mu Linjing. At this point, she could only tell Mu Linjing or Zhan Mohan these thoughts.
"What? You're living with that Chen Yutong now?" Mu Linjing couldn't believe her ears.
Wei Yumeng was also a bit helpless. "We had thought of other solutions before, but then an accident happened, so it had to be this way."
Mu Linjing thought about it and felt that it was hard to judge just by hearing about it. So, she simply found a time to visit in person.
"Yumeng, are they still living here now?" Mu Linjing whispered to Wei Yumeng.
Wei Yumeng nodded. "They should still be in their room."
"Then let's not talk here anymore, otherwise, if they overhear, it'll be trouble."
Wei Yumeng stood up and took Mu Linjing to her room.
"Yumeng, I've always agreed with your thoughts. This Chen Yutong is clearly a woman with a lot of schemes. Unlike you, who always cares about the Zhan family, you are the most important person to me," Mu Linjing said indignantly.
This time, Wei Yumeng no longer cared about the Zhan family's relationships. Chen Yutong's intentions were already completely obvious; she couldn't fail to realize it.
It was just that now she didn't know what to do. If they weren't living under the same roof like this, perhaps there would still be room for maneuver.
Mu Linjing was also aware of Wei Yumeng's current predicament. She couldn't deal with all this in front of the family.
"I think this is what we should do," Mu Linjing suggested. "Instead of us taking the initiative, which might affect the family's situation, it's better to just watch her. Once she makes a move, we catch her red-handed. That should be more convincing."
Saying that, Mu Linjing stood up again. "Since I've come all this way, it would be rude not to see this expectant mother."
Wei Yumeng understood Mu Linjing's intention. After all, the reason she came was to meet Chen Yutong in person.
The two of them went to Chen Yutong's room. Chen Yutong had already announced she was resting at home to carry her pregnancy, and almost everyone knew she was pregnant.
Although logically, she shouldn't need to stay in bed all the time at this stage, Grandpa Zhan insisted she rest well for a few days before getting up.
Seeing Wei Yumeng and Mu Linjing, Chen Yutong couldn't help but smile.
"Yumeng, you've come to keep me company? I'm so bored I'm going to die."
Wei Yumeng introduced Chen Yutong. "This is my good friend, Mu Linjing."
"Hello, I've often heard Yang Yi talk about Yumeng having a very courageous friend. Seeing you today, you certainly have an extraordinary presence."
Chen Yutong said this, but it wasn't the first time she had met Mu Linjing. Previously, due to a certain incident, she had already sent people to investigate Mu Linjing's background.
Mu Linjing also smiled and said, "You are just as I imagined, just as... very... intelligent."
Although it was just a greeting, Mu Linjing's hostility towards Chen Yutong was already evident.
Wei Yumeng couldn't help but glance at Mu Linjing, reminding her not to go too far.
Chen Yutong, on the other hand, seemed to understand. "I know you're good friends, so you must know about the silly things I've done before. But I hope you can understand that it's all in the past. Moreover, I'm carrying Yang Yi's baby now, and I just want to live a good life with him. Sometimes I really envy those of you who already have families."
Chen Yutong's expression was gentle, and she gently touched her belly, as if recalling some happy memory, making one moved.
If Mu Linjing hadn't heard what happened from Wei Yumeng before, she might have thought Chen Yutong was still living in happiness.
Chen Yutong continued, "If you often come to keep me company in the future, I'll be very happy."
Mu Linjing suddenly asked, "How is your health recently? Are you feeling unwell in any way?"
Wei Yumeng looked at Mu Linjing. She understood Mu Linjing's intention. For women who had already had children, they naturally knew what pregnancy felt like. But if Chen Yutong's pregnancy was fake, her answer would definitely have issues.
For example, people who have never been pregnant usually think that pregnancy must come with certain symptoms, but in reality, these states don't exist from the beginning.
"This..." Chen Yutong said, her expression showing difficulty. "Actually, I don't mind you laughing, but I really don't know. Recently, I've just felt a bit more tired quickly and seem to be eating more. Other than that, there don't seem to be any other changes."
Wei Yumeng and Mu Linjing exchanged glances. Chen Yutong's answer was natural. It neither presented the problem they had anticipated nor did it seem unnatural.
Mu Linjing instinctively frowned. It seemed this Chen Yutong was more formidable than she had imagined.
However, Chen Yutong noticed this small gesture.
Mu Linjing tried her best but found nothing. In the end, she lost interest and left with a casual excuse.
Wei Yumeng, under the pretense of seeing Mu Linjing off, walked with her to the door.
"Yumeng, this woman is indeed very cunning. We couldn't find anything out," Mu Linjing was still a little unwilling.
Wei Yumeng shrugged. If it could have been easily discovered, she wouldn't have had so many problems.
In the room, Chen Yutong watched the two of them leave, and her expression became serious.
Mu Linjing's probing today had undoubtedly revealed one thing: Wei Yumeng had begun to suspect the authenticity of her pregnancy.
Although she was confident that her answers today were flawless, this matter would eventually be exposed, as she had never truly been intimate with Zhan Yangyi.
Every time, she would drug Zhan Yangyi's cup in advance, making him confused. The next day, he wouldn't remember what happened the previous night, and as long as she acted convincingly enough, she wouldn't arouse Zhan Yangyi's suspicion.
However, this could only be a temporary cover-up. In the long run, it would inevitably be exposed.
Chen Yutong touched her belly. She could not tolerate having a child that was not Zhan Mohan's. Therefore, to resolve this matter, she had to create a connection with Zhan Mohan.
