Chapter 217 Plan
Xie Tianyi sighed and recalled the scene of that day: "Today I went to visit Yufeng and accidentally passed by the backyard of the Jiang family. I saw two figures hugging each other tightly at the back door. Originally, this was nothing, but the man called the woman Ningshuang, and soon after, the woman entered the Jiang Mansion through the back door, and the man left stealthily."
"I can't help but wonder, could that woman be Ning Shuang, the pregnant maid of the Jiang family?"
Xie Tianyi's discovery was undoubtedly like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
If the situation is true, then the real father of the child in Ningshuang's belly becomes a mystery, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to Jiang Yufeng.
And deep in the Jiang Mansion, Ningshuang, who was immersed in a sweet dream, would never have thought that her private meeting with her lover would be caught by Xie Tianyi who came to visit Jiang Yufeng.
The gears of fate seem to turn quietly at this moment.
"Since you witnessed it with your own eyes, there is no need to worry that she will reveal her flaws easily. Although Jiang Yufeng is temporarily imprisoned, with the power of the Jiang family, they will definitely find a way to allow him to go to the academy to continue his studies."
Chen Xi's words revealed a deep insight into the situation.
Just as she expected, on the first day of school at the academy, Jiang Yufeng regained his freedom. However, in order to avoid suspicion, the Jiang family strictly forbade him to approach the courtyard where Ningshuang was.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Jiang Li is ready to embark on her journey home.
"Sister Chen, I'm sorry to bother you for so long. I should go home."
There was some reluctance in her words.
Chen Xi gently held her hand, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes, "Xiao Li, there is something I can't hide from you anymore."
Jiang Li's heart tightened, thinking that Chen Xi was going to reveal some secrets of the Jiang family.
"My husband hasn't come to see me these days, which means the matter has not been properly resolved."
Chen Xi's voice was gentle but firm. "The Jiang family didn't send anyone to pick up Xiaole and me. It's obvious that they are more concerned about the child in Ningshuang's belly. I have decided that after I go back, I will confess everything to my parents and then divorce Yufeng."
Chen Xi quickly shook her head to stop him. There was an unquestionable determination in her eyes. "I'm talking about Ning Shuang's matter. There seems to be a secret hidden in it... You can stay for a few more days until the truth comes out. If Ning Shuang's child is indeed Jiang Yufeng's, then it won't be too late for you to leave."
Jiang Li was surprised when she heard this, but she knew Chen Xi's character very well and she would not lie to her for no reason.
So, she nodded woodenly and agreed to Chen Xi's suggestion.
On the other hand, in the absence of Jiang Yufeng and Jiang Li, Ningshuang's status rose rapidly because of the old lady's attention to the fetus in her belly, and she enjoyed unprecedented respect.
Jiang Yufeng, who is in the academy, is no longer the depressed boy.
He thought to himself, if all this was really Ningshuang's plan, then Xiaoli might not have proposed a divorce.
Xie Tianyi told Jiang Yufeng everything he saw and heard that day without reservation, which resulted in Jiang Yufeng being punished by the old lady to go to the academy to reflect on his mistakes and not be allowed to go home.
Three days later, Jiang Yufeng quickly wrote a letter full of regret and self-reflection, which was quietly delivered to the old lady's desk through the messenger.
Every word in the letter was full of sincerity and reflection, which deeply touched the old lady's heart.
The old lady was pleased and pardoned the servants around Jiang Yufeng to give her son some comfort.
At this point, Jiang Yufeng finally had a helper he could trust.
"Master, the old lady asked me to take care of your life."
The servant stood respectfully by the side. Jiang Yufeng waved his hand gently and the servant quickly came closer.
After hearing Jiang Yufeng's secret order, the servant did not hesitate and denounced Ningshuang's behavior with anger.
Jiang Yufeng was very pleased with the servant's loyalty and friendship over the years, so he naturally wouldn't blame him.
After receiving the order, the servant immediately took action. His most important task every day was to secretly monitor Ningshuang and record her whereabouts and interactions.
However, after four consecutive days, nothing was found.
After Jiang Yufeng learned about it, although he was anxious, he still insisted on letting the servant continue to monitor.
"Master, Ningshuang asked the old lady for permission to go out for a walk tomorrow, and someone will accompany her."
The servant did not hide anything when he mentioned Xie Tianyi.
"Yufeng, I have a plan, we can do this..."
The next day, when Ningshuang and her group had just left Jiang Mansion, Jiang Yufeng sneaked into Chen Mansion quietly.
"Mom, please go quickly. I finally got leave from the teacher."
Faced with her youngest son's pleading, Mrs. Jiang finally nodded and agreed. She was secretly curious about what was so special about the so-called opera troupe her son was talking about. At the same time, she sternly warned him, "This is just the first time. If you come out to watch the opera instead of studying hard next time, I will let your father teach you a lesson!"
Jiang Yufeng waved his hands quickly. Although he was already a father, he still maintained awe for the authority of his father and brother.
Old Madam Jiang smiled with satisfaction and slowly stood up with the help of Jiang Yufeng.
At the same time, Ningshuang was carefully selecting various rouge and powder in the Treasure Pavilion. After a while, her hands were full.
Suddenly, she covered her abdomen, her face turned pale and she looked extremely painful.
Seeing this, the accompanying servant hurriedly sent her to the clinic across the street.
"This lady's fetus is unstable and needs to rest. No one is allowed to disturb her."
The servants dared not disobey the doctor's orders, for fear that if Ningshuang made any mistake, they would be implicated.
Thus, Ningshuang temporarily disappeared under everyone's eyes.
Chen Xi and Xie Tianyi were hiding in the crowd. At this moment, Chen Xi left on the pretext of something, leaving Xie Tianyi waiting there.
But after a cup of tea, Chen Xi returned and nodded slightly to Xie Tianyi. Jiang Yufeng's servant followed closely behind him. Everything seemed to be proceeding quietly according to plan.
"Son, why hasn't the troupe arrived yet?"
Madam Jiang asked softly, a hint of anxiety revealed between her brows.
Jiang Yufeng was about to respond when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, causing him to cover his abdomen involuntarily and let out a slight groan.
When the old lady saw this, her face changed and she quickly ordered the servants to send the young master to the clinic, which happened to be where Ningshuang worked.
"Doctor, come and see my son!"
As soon as Old Madam Jiang stepped into the clinic, she called out anxiously.
Jiang Yufeng made an excuse to go to the bathroom and took the opportunity to sneak to the backyard.
The doctor at the clinic wanted to stop him, but then he thought that Young Master Jiang was just going to the toilet and should be fine, so he did not stop him by force.
As soon as Jiang Yufeng arrived at the backyard and confirmed that no one was following him, he relaxed, took off his disguise, and began to carefully search for Ningshuang's trace.
Although the clinic was small and compact, Old Madam Jiang recognized the servant she had arranged for Ningshuang at a glance.
When the two servants saw the old lady, they immediately reported the whole story.
When the old lady heard this, she hurried into the house to check on Ningshuang's condition, but the doctor looked confused and didn't know what was going on.
How could these people be so lucky...
