Huo Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at the old man. "What is it?"
The old man changed his mind abruptly: "She's your wife! She's even listed in the family tree!"
However, Huo Yan said indifferently: "We did not register."
"The genealogy of our Huo family is more valuable than the marriage registration office. Besides, how do you know you didn't register it? Did you even check it?"
The old man said that last sentence with profound meaning.
After being tricked by the old man, Huo Yan suddenly became dark-faced and left directly.
The old man shouted from behind: "I won't do the operation unless I find my granddaughter-in-law!"
Huo Yan ignored it, but when the family doctor called and gently reminded the old man that he refused to go to the hospital for surgery, he felt that his head problem was about to happen again.
The doctor continued to remind: "The old man's cyst must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise there will be a risk of disease. I have been recovering for so long just for this operation, so I can't let it go to waste."
Huo Yan had no choice but to interrupt the meeting and went back to Huo's house in person. He stared at the sick old man lying on the bed and said, "You really don't want to go?"
The old man raised his eyes and said indifferently, "I want my grandson-in-law."
"She's dead."
"You want to see people alive, you want to see corpses alive."
Huo Yan rarely choked.
Uncle Zhong, the housekeeper, looked worried next to him. He was afraid that the grandson would start a quarrel, so he quickly pulled the young master away and whispered: "Young master, please leave the master for a while. He has been unable to sleep at night these past few nights. If this continues,
Even the well-nurtured body has failed."
In the end, Huo Yan calmly asked people to find Cheng Anning's whereabouts.
The Huo family, which had been silent all this time, suddenly started looking for someone, which directly alerted the Cheng family.
Cheng Hai and his wife Bai Mei were talking carefully.
"Honey, what do you mean by the Huo family? The news we sent out made such a big fuss, and there was no movement at all from the Huo family. Now that no one can be found, they are starting to look for someone?"
Cheng Hai's eyes darkened and he said, "I shouldn't have married her in the first place."
I thought that he would be killed quickly, that he would not need to worry about how to get rid of him, and that he could be exchanged for a sky-high contract from the Huo family, but now he is left with a scourge.
"Husband, are we still looking for it now?"
"Look for it, find it before the Huo family, and do it. Make the elopement a real thing."
Bai Mei's eyes flashed with a hint of pride, but she concealed it well, "Don't worry, leave this matter to me and no one will find out."
Cheng Hai hugged her gently and said softly: "Amei, you still understand me. I have worked hard for you all these years."
Bai Mei's eyes softened and she leaned into her husband's arms, but she didn't see a dark light flashing in Cheng Hai's eyes.
Huo Yan found the person who the Cheng family couldn't find.
When the information was sent, Huo Yan was in the hospital, accompanying Xu Manman for her first prenatal check-up.
He ordered the hospital, and the doctor was also from the Huo family.
He took a look at the report and saw that she was indeed pregnant. It was 13 weeks. The time was right and there was no mistake.
However, pregnant women are weak and have unstable fetal images, so some tests cannot be performed.
After Xu Manman finished the examination, she stood beside Huo Yan with a weak look on her face, her voice was gentle and soft, "Third Master, don't you believe me?"
Suddenly I took her to a strange hospital and checked her again. If she hadn't been prepared, I'm afraid there would be flaws.
Huo Yan said calmly: "Take care of it carefully, activities will be postponed."
Xu Manman gritted her teeth, "But my career has just started..."
Huo Yan gave her a card.
Xu Manman's heart beat two minutes faster. It was a supplementary card to a black card. It had no upper limit and was a symbol of status.
"Thank you, Third Master. I will take good care of him. After all, this is our child."
Xu Manman smiled gently and touched her belly kindly.
Huo Yan's heart was untroubled. His curiosity and stubbornness towards her had long since disappeared, and he didn't dislike her now. Since he had his child, he would give birth to her. He didn't mind having an heir.
"Go back by yourself."
After that, Huo Yan turned around and left. Since the matter was confirmed, there was no need to worry about it.
After seeing the person leave, Xu Manman carefully returned to the consulting room and closed the door directly.
What Huo Yan didn't know was that the doctor he specially hired actually knew Xu Manman. He was Xu Manman's high school classmate and had been secretly in love with Xu Manman for many years.
So even if it was quite risky, it helped her cover it up.
"Manman, you are not 13 weeks pregnant at all, you are 14 weeks pregnant. If you are found out..."
"Liang Zhao, if you don't tell me, no one will know it's 14 weeks."
Liang Zhao is the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department here, so he will be very panicked.
Seeing that he was so cowardly, Xu Manman sneered and lowered her voice, "Be obedient, this child is yours. Don't you want him to be born with fine clothes and good food, and be the leader of ten thousand people?"
Liang Zhao... was moved.
They met unexpectedly a few months ago, had dinner and drank wine together, and accidentally had a relationship. He thought it was just a one-night stand, but it turned out that Xu Manman was pregnant and suddenly asked him to lie.
If he doesn't agree, she will abort the child and ruin his reputation. After all, he is married now and has a career.
"but……"
Liang Zhao was very afraid of deceiving Mr. Huo, and he almost showed his flaws when he asked the question.
"No buts, don't worry, I can handle the rest. You just need to make arrangements for the fetal examination. I'm going back first and wait for me to contact you. Don't contact me casually."
Xu Manman straightened his clothes and left. Before leaving, he glanced at Liang Zhao contemptuously.
This child was not Liang Zhao's at all, and she didn't know whose it was. After all, she was accompanying several directors at that time, but now he might as well continue to misunderstand.
Liang Zhao was still immersed in the dream that his son would become the heir of the Huo family. He had no idea that he had also fallen into a trap.
Xu Manman left the hospital and was about to go home when she was stopped by a sneaky person.
Zhang Jiahua would be like a rat crossing the street, squatting timidly at the entrance of Xu Manman's community. When he saw a familiar car, he would directly stop it.
Xu Manman's eyes flashed and she immediately took him to a hidden place and said angrily: "Didn't I tell you not to come?"
Zhang Jiahua grimaced and said cautiously: "I have no money and I am still being chased, so I can only come to you."
"Where's the money I gave you before?!"
Zhang Jiahua said nonchalantly: "It's all spent, give me some more."
Xu Manman's eyes darkened and she had murderous intent, but she concealed it well and took a stack of cash for him. She was afraid of leaving the transfer information, so she had already prepared the cash with her.
After giving him the money, Xu Manman gave him another task, "Keep an eye on the Xu family's mother and daughter, and don't let them show up."
"Don't worry, Xu Nannan is very timid with little hoofs. After telling me about this, she felt too guilty to show up. Her mother has passed out again, and she probably won't survive long."
Xu Manman was satisfied and sent the person away.
It turns out that all of this started when she found out that she was really pregnant.
She hatched a plan to exchange the civet cat for the prince.
And now, there is only one last step left -
Get rid of the real Huo family. This chapter has been completed!
