Lu Ma's face turned pale with anxiety.
"What on earth is going on? These two brats, divorcing just like that. Do they think marriage is child's play?"
Unable to lie still any longer, Lu Ma threw off her blanket and started to get up.
Zhou Jinbei quickly held her down.
"Auntie, where are you going?"
"I'm going to find Jiao Jiao! What's going on, I need her to explain it clearly!"
"They've only been married a few days! Everyone praised our family for marrying a good daughter-in-law. I was even thinking about them having children soon. And they're divorcing so quietly! Isn't that slapping me in the face?"
Zhou Jinbei held her back.
"Please don't rush, Auntie. Jiao Jiao isn't here right now, she went out on business."
"Get my bag for me. I'll call her and tell her to come back immediately!"
"She went to the factory to see new products and won't be back for a while. Auntie, please let me finish speaking first. At least have some psychological preparation, otherwise, you'll just confront them head-on..."
Lu Ma sat down and thought for a moment, then indignantly lay back down.
"Then tell me, tell me everything you know!"
Zhou Jinbei then recounted everything she knew.
"An internet celebrity? You mean Ming Zhe found an internet celebrity outside and got her pregnant?"
Most people have prejudices against internet celebrities.
After all, the threshold for this industry is too low, and most people lack a high level of education.
To make money quickly, they are willing to do anything without principles.
Young people are fine, but elders are full of prejudice against this industry.
Moreover, what kind of family is the Lu family?
From grandfather to father, Lu Ming Zhe's work attributes are all extraordinary. How could they possibly let someone unclear enter the family?
"Now I understand what you're saying."
Lu Ma analyzed.
"It must be that Jiao Jiao's family had trouble some time ago, she was in a bad mood, quarreled with Ming Zhe, impulsively found that woman, and then she latched onto him."
"What's the difference between people like them and escort girls? As long as they're paid, they'll do anything."
"Our Ming Zhe has looks and status. In their eyes, he's a perfect catch. Once they get their hooks in, they won't let go!"
"This foolish child. That woman clearly had ulterior motives, and he still walked into the trap. Is he stupid?"
Zhou Jinbei did not offer an opinion.
After all, she didn't know Xiang Wan.
She only knew that Xiang Wan was an internet celebrity who destroyed other people's families. She felt that Lu Ma was absolutely right.
Lu Ma continued.
"Besides, can you even keep a child from someone like that? Can you guarantee it's his?"
"What if someone set a trap to frame him, wanting to extort our family... He seems smart usually, but he's made such a big mistake at a critical moment!"
"And Jiao Jiao, she didn't try to stop him. She just divorced him like that. Didn't that let that woman succeed?"
Zhou Jinbei said.
"Let me give you an analogy, please don't be angry."
"If Uncle Lu had an affair with another woman and wanted to divorce you, wouldn't you fight for your dignity?"
"What could Jiao Jiao do? Cry and beg Brother Ming Zhe not to leave? Let that woman give birth and raise the child?"
"Alas, she's alone and feels inferior to your Lu family. Brother Ming Zhe has changed his mind, and besides divorcing, she has no other options."
Lu Ma was furious.
"No! I can't stand it anymore! Wash my face, and I'm going back to deal with him!"
"You good-for-nothing Lu Ming Zhe, daring to do such a rebellious thing, I won't let you get away with it!"
At this critical moment, Zhou Jinbei had a different opinion.
"Auntie, I advise you not to go back now."
"What's wrong? I'm his mother, and I can't even criticize him when he's done wrong?"
"It's not about not being able to criticize him, it's about timing. You can't say it at this moment."
Zhou Jinbei reminded her.
"Think about it, when you and Uncle Lu were madly in love, if someone tried to separate you, would you have listened?"
"Brother Ming Zhe is in that state right now. That internet celebrity is beautiful and knows how to please men. He's completely smitten with her. If you speak ill of that woman now and try to break them up, will Brother Ming Zhe listen to you?"
That made sense.
Lu Ma looked at her and blinked.
"Then what do you mean?"
"I think to solve this problem at its root, we still need to deal with that woman."
"Brother Ming Zhe is your son, you can't just watch him be dragged down by a bad woman, can you?"
Lu Ma understood and couldn't help but smile.
"That's why everyone says you're smart, Beibei. If your brain were in a boy, he'd be ten times more accomplished than your brother!"
"Have you prepared everything for Auntie? Just give me that woman's information. I'll go meet her when I have time."
"Alright, I'll send it to your phone later."
Zhou Jinbei smiled cheerfully.
"Auntie, I'm doing this for Jiao Jiao. She only has me as a friend..."
"Please don't let Brother Ming Zhe know that we did this, otherwise, it will only backfire for him and Jiao Jiao."
"I know. Your Aunt Lu isn't stupid."
After attending to Lu Ma for a long time, Zhou Jinbei was also exhausted.
She said goodbye to Chen Jiao Jiao.
"I can't anymore, I'm going home to catch up on sleep. You keep an eye on things, and I'll let you know if there's any good news."
She said that, but once she was alone, her mind involuntarily drifted back to Ah Zhong.
That scoundrel went on a blind date today, and she didn't know how it went.
According to the normal process, if two people have a good first impression, they will chat frequently and arrange a second and third meeting.
She couldn't let them continue.
If for no other reason, then at least not with this nurse.
Watching her man being snatched away right under her nose, was she, Zhou Jinbei, just for show?
But she couldn't directly call or text Ah Zhong.
She could only take a taxi to Zhan Bei Jue's house.
The little one that Jiang Nan Fang was carrying this time was a troublemaker, with severe morning sickness.
She vomited whatever she ate.
So Zhan Bei Jue rushed back before his work hours ended.
The nanny had been simmering chicken soup for hours, and the aroma was filling the air.
Paired with a bowl of plain congee, Zhan Bei Jue was accompanying Jiang Nan Fang for dinner.
When she entered, she saw.
"What time is it, and you're already eating?"
"With four children at home, you're having a private meal. You're quite the parents."
Jiang Nan Fang knew that she had been diligently taking care of Ah Zhong's father in the hospital recently.
Seeing her arrive at this hour, she couldn't help but be curious.
"Why did you suddenly come over? Don't you need to take care of things at the hospital?"
Zhou Jinbei pretended to be casual.
"Zhong Jia Ming returned these past two days. Didn't you say hello?"
Jiang Nan Fang observed her expression and thought to herself:
It's good that he's back. You like him, don't you? If he's back, you should be sticking to the hospital and building a relationship with him. Why come to me?
"So, what's the matter?"
"Nothing, I just heard you were pregnant and came to see you."
She came to see someone without bringing a single cent's worth of gift?
Jiang Nan Fang ruthlessly exposed her.
"You've seen me now, and I'm not in the mood to entertain you. You can go back."
