When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 608: The Truths Hidden Within the Truth (18)

Sheng Jianan slowly emerged from behind the tree, watching the car drive away. His Adam’s apple moved abruptly, and he turned to walk in the other direction, got into the car, and slowed down as he passed the prison gate, staring at the heavy iron door for a few seconds before looking away.

The accelerator pressed to the floor, leaving a trail of dust behind...

Sheng Jiayu accompanied Tang Yanqi to the hospital for a prenatal check-up. Tang Yanqi followed the doctor inside, while Sheng Jiayu waited outside.

At a certain moment, her gaze fixed on two people coming out of another doctor’s office. The woman was petite and lovely, with a large belly, and appeared to walk with difficulty.

The man beside her was tall and handsome, carefully supporting her, holding a piece of paper in his hand. Whatever they were discussing, happiness was evident on their faces.

Sheng Jiayu’s legs felt as heavy as lead. The people over there seemed to feel her gaze and looked over as well. The woman’s eyes were suddenly filled with panic, while the man’s eyes were full of vigilance.

Tang Yanqi emerged from the examination room to see Sheng Jiayu staring blankly into the distance. Following her gaze, Tang Yanqi also saw the man and woman over there. The man was supporting the woman as they walked down the corridor, but from a distance, Tang Yanqi could only see the people over there seemed to be saying something, their gaze unfriendly towards Sheng Jiayu.

After their figures disappeared from view, Tang Yanqi gently patted Sheng Jiayu’s shoulder, "Sister?"

Sheng Jianan rarely called Sheng Jiayu sister, but ever since Tang Yanqi reconciled with Sheng Jianan, she always respectfully called Sheng Jiayu "sister."

Sheng Jiayu did not respond. Tang Yanqi wanted to say something, but suddenly noticed Sheng Jiayu’s eyes were somehow already red. Even from the side, she could clearly see the tears welling up in her eyes.

Sheng Jiayu always gave the impression of being a resourceful and strong woman, capable and assertive, but now, with her eyes red and lips tightly pressed, she seemed like a porcupine without its quills.

Tang Yanqi’s heart tightened, and she fell silent. After several minutes, Sheng Jiayu seemed to recover her senses, forcefully swallowing her emotions and smiling at Tang Yanqi, "Sorry, I was distracted. How was it? Is everything okay?"

Tang Yanqi nodded, "The doctor said the baby is doing well."

"Hmm, let’s go."

As they left the hospital, Sheng Jiayu had already returned to normal. She opened the car door for Tang Yanqi, "Let’s go, I’ll take you back."

Tang Yanqi shook her head, "I want to go to Shengshi." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"Now?"

"Now!"

Sheng Jiayu hesitated for two seconds, then spoke, "Jianan is still busy with company matters right now. You’re heavily pregnant, maybe it’s better if..."

Before she could finish, Tang Yanqi smiled and interrupted, "He’s avoiding me. I know. If I don’t go look for him, who knows how long he’ll keep hiding."

Sheng Jiayu was stunned, then stopped persuading and nodded, "Alright, let’s go. I’ll take you there."

Initially, Tang Yanqi also thought Sheng Jianan was simply busy with work, which was why he hadn’t come home. Until a couple of nights ago, when she couldn’t sleep, after lying in bed for a long time without falling asleep, she decided to get up.

She didn’t turn on the lights, but walked to the window by the moonlight, lifting a corner of the curtain to look outside.

She was stunned by what she saw. Sheng Jianan’s car was parked downstairs. Tang Yanqi immediately wanted to go out, but after taking two steps, she suddenly stopped.

Sheng Jianan had returned, but why didn’t he come upstairs?
