Master's Little Girl Has Grown Up

Jiang Ci threw the phone to him. "You don't have to worry about this matter for now."    

Hearing that, Chi Yi was puzzled. "Young Master, do you mean to let Huo Fanrou go?"    

Jiang Ci didn't say anything. He naturally wouldn't let Huo Fanrou go, but he would temporarily not touch her.    

Seeing that his expression was not good, Chi Yi didn't ask any more questions and said, "I understand. Then, I'll leave first." Then, he left.    

Xiao Wenyu also did not quite understand. "The Huo family... What are you worried about?"    

"What can I be worried about? It's just that... she is not worthy of me personally doing it."    

Xiao Wenyu, "..."    

A week later.    

The Imperial Capital.    

"Madam, everything has been investigated."    

Mrs. Jiang immediately asked, "What is the situation? Is it true?"    

The man nodded. "Miss Huo Yan did indeed go to the hospital's gynecology department. She is indeed pregnant, and..."    

"What? Hurry up and say it!"    

"This subordinate also found out that she did not go to Europe for a vacation, but was staying in the E country to conceive."    

"To conceive..."    

Mrs. Jiang was completely disappointed. Originally, she still had a sliver of hope that the woman was not lying, but now that her subordinate had seen with his own eyes that she was conceiving, her hope was completely shattered.    

"Wait! You said that she was conceiving?"    

"Yes." The subordinate said, "Although she was quite far away, this subordinate clearly saw that the pregnant woman in the villa was Miss Huo Yan. This subordinate even took a picture of her."    

The man took out his phone and tapped a few times on the screen. Then, he placed the phone in front of Mrs. Jiang and said, "Look, there are bodyguards on both sides of the villa. I didn't dare to get close, so I could only take a picture from afar. However, I can see that it is Miss Huo Yan."    

Looking at the girl who was walking in the courtyard with a big belly, Mrs. Jiang was puzzled. "Why is she pregnant? Does the Huo family want Yan'er to give birth to this illegitimate child?"    

"Madam, there's another thing that's a little strange," his subordinate said.    

Mrs. Jiang raised her eyes and asked, "What is it?"    

"The bodyguard who is protecting Miss Huo Yan doesn't seem to be arranged by the Huo family. Besides, Miss Huo was very careful when she went out. Also, Young Master Huo went to Country E two days ago, but he never appeared in the villa. According to Young Master Huo's care for his sister, shouldn't he go to see his sister once he arrived in Country E?"    

"Do you mean that... even the Huo family doesn't know that Huo Yan is pregnant?"    

"This subordinate is only guessing."    

Mrs. Jiang lowered her eyes and looked at the photo again. "If even the Huo family doesn't know, then it must be Huo Yan's idea. Then, why would she... Why?"    

"This is indeed very strange. Logically speaking, Miss Huo should have quietly aborted her pregnancy. Why would she quietly stay?" After pausing for a moment, the man asked, "Madam, do you want to continue investigating?"    

Mrs. Jiang sighed: "Forget it." She pinched the space between her eyebrows and said weakly, "Go out. This matter ends here. Don't tell anyone else."    

The man nodded. "Yes, madam. Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to call the doctor over?"    

"No need." After a few seconds, Mrs. Jiang picked up her phone and called Jiang Ci.    

Seeing that, the man turned around and left.    

In Country E.    

Jiang Ci was in a meeting when his phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was Mrs. Jiang, he immediately hung up.    

Not long after, his phone rang again. He frowned slightly and stopped the meeting. He picked up his phone and answered, "Mom, I'm in a meeting."    

"Little Ci, when will the project in your country be completed?"    

"Probably two to three months."    

"That long!"    

"What do you want to say?"    

"Nothing, Mom just wants you to finish your work as soon as possible and return to the country. Don't stay outside all the time."    

"I'll be back after I'm done. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."    

Mrs. Jiang said anxiously, "Wait! Little Ci, have you been in contact with Yan Er?"    

"Mom." Jiang Ci's voice became more serious, "I don't want to say anymore about this matter."    

Mrs. Jiang explained, "Don't worry, I don't mean anything else. I thought about it … You and Yan Er are not suitable, but we are family friends after all. You have to take care of her there. Also, tell Huo Fei to watch her a little more. After all, she is a girl. Don't be fooled by some bad guys."    

"I know, I still have a meeting to attend. Let's not talk about this for now."    

"Alright, you can continue with your work."    

Jiang Ci had been busy in the branch company for the entire day, so he invited Huo Fei for dinner.    

"Mr. Ci, what's wrong with your hand? Are you injured?"    

Although Huo Fei had been in the country for three days, he had been busy with his own matters. He had only managed to find the time to have a meal with Jiang Ci today.    

"Yes," Jiang Ci said, "I accidentally scratched it."    

"Scratch?" Seeing his hand wrapped in bandages, Huo Fei asked suspiciously, "How did you scratch it?"    

"The cup broke and scratched me." Jiang Ci poured himself a glass of wine and continued, "How long are you going to stay here?"    

"About a week. I don't think I'll be coming back for a while. How long are you going to stay here for?"    

"At least two months."    

Huo Fei drank a mouthful of wine and hesitated for a moment. Then he asked, "Have you been getting close to Xiao Wenyu recently? Do you guys often hang out together?"    

"I've been in contact with him recently. Why?"    

Huo Fei said, "I really don't think that guy is reliable. You should stay away from him."
