“Miss Xu?” A familiar gentle male voice sounded.

Xu Qing felt that Lei Yanning probably liked to listen to opera music. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have bumped into each other in the teahouse twice.

“Why are you alone today?” Lei Yanning used eye contact to ask Xu Qing if he could sit down. After Xu Qing nodded, he slowly sat down.

“He’s taking care of the children at home.” Xu Qing didn’t feel that she needed to explain Qiao Yanhui’s whereabouts to others.

However, Lei Yanning clearly felt that something was wrong with Xu Qing. He didn’t say anything about Qiao Yanhui and only said guiltily, “I’m sorry that I couldn’t help Mr. Bei Shu a few days ago.” He knew that Xu Qing was on good terms with Mr. Bei Shu, and it was rare for her to ask for help, but he didn’t help her with anything.

When Xu Qing was first captured, she had indeed gotten someone to send a message to Lei Yanning to see if there was a way for him to help. Of course, at that time, she requested help under the guise of Bei Shu’s good friend.

“You can’t be blamed. That matter was indeed a little complicated.” No matter what, Xu Qing still remembered his kindness.

“My sister has always believed in you, so she naturally believes in your friends as well. She knew that you must have been worried about your friends, and she wanted to look for you, but yesterday, she experienced symptoms of a miscarriage, so she couldn’t go out anymore…” Lei Yanning sighed helplessly.

Xu Qing’s eyes flickered. “Tell Sister Wangshu that I’m very grateful for her concern.” After all, Lei Wangshu was pregnant, but was still worried about her. Moreover, she had bought things from her pregnancy shop. Xu Qing was truly touched by her kindness.

“I will.” Lei Yanning nodded.

“By the way, how’s Sister Wangshu’s appetite been recently? Has she still been eating a lot?” Xu Qing asked. She was very puzzled. How could someone as meticulous as Lei Wangshu not pay attention to her own health? Why did she keep experiencing symptoms of a miscarriage?

“No.” Lei Yanning shook his head. He had noticed this before. Coupled with Xu Qing’s special instructions, he felt even more certain now.

Xu Qing looked at Lei Yanning and felt the urge to give some advice, but hesitated.

Lei Yanning said directly, “Miss Xu, if you have anything to say, just say it.”

Xu Qing lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, “I suggest you hire a trustworthy doctor to stay by Sister Wangshu’s side. It’s best if no one knows that she’s a doctor.”

Lei Yanning trembled and he looked at Xu Qing thoughtfully. Could it be that Xu Qing had discovered something?

“Thank you, Miss Xu!” Lei Yanning thanked her solemnly.

“Since your sister and I call each other sisters, don’t keep calling me Miss Xu. Call me by my name.” Xu Qing felt awkward every time she heard Lei Yanning call her Miss Xu so seriously.

“Then I’ll call you Little Qing. You call me Yanning.” A surprised look appeared in Lei Yanning’s eyes.

“Alright.” Xu Qing nodded calmly.

“Then I’ll go back and arrange this first. Little Qing, let’s talk more when we have time.” Lei Yanning seemed a little anxious, as if he had thought of something because of Xu Qing’s words.

“Go.” Xu Qing nodded. After Lei Yanning left, she continued to listen to the opera. This time, the performers used the current War God as the model. They said that the War God was extraordinarily talented and extremely handsome. Only the number one beauty in the ancient country. Mu Weiqing, was a match for him. They also said that be it their families’ social status or personal abilities, they were on par with each other. The two of them also felt great chemistry with each other…

Xu Qing couldn’t help but sigh. This place was remote and was at least a thousand kilometers away from the capital. Technology wasn’t developed, so who had seen the number one beauty? And the so-called War God? These people were really good at making titles up. However, life was boring, so they could only find some fun through make-believe.

In a certain private room, a man laughed in an exaggerated manner. “Even I don’t know when our War God fell for Mu Weiqing.” Hua Yuncheng laughed so hard that he swayed back and forth. He only paid attention to his image in front of beautiful women. Because of how hard he was laughing, he even spilled the tea on the table. A few drops splashed on Deng Jiangming, who was across from him.

Seeing Deng Jiangming’s cold expression, Hua Yuncheng touched his nose in embarrassment. The War God wasn’t around, so he didn’t dare to provoke Deng Jiangming, who was cold and aloof.

“Jiangming, you said that someone used the secret guards here not long ago. Is it our general?” Although he only used a small portion of his forces, they still discovered it.

“If we don’t find him, that might not be the case.” Deng Jiangming frowned. There was a mixture of emotions on his refined face. It made people feel the urge to pacify him.

“I think it’s very likely him. But why did he erase the traces? Does he not want us to look for him, or did he encounter some trouble?” Hua Yuncheng muttered to himself.
