No one else knew the purpose of Chen Chuan and his group's trip, and Fang Shiyou and his group knew even less.

They were still very upset that their master had abandoned them to travel abroad.

"Teacher Shen, why did Master leave without saying goodbye?"

"You've only been back from Gansu Province for a short time, and you're already out traveling again, even abroad! I'm so envious..."

Shen Xi had a strange feeling of being the only one sober in a world of drunks, but at the same time, she felt stifled. There was no one to share her secrets with, which was very frustrating.

Her semester is almost over, and she's currently preparing for her final exams.

Although she was pregnant, it was still early, and even if it was twins, her belly wouldn't be very noticeable.

No one at school knew she was pregnant, and she certainly wouldn't tell anyone herself. Although she didn't believe in the old rule that you can't tell anyone three months before, she didn't want to bring up her pregnancy either.

However, she forgot that coincidences can happen all the time.

Just after class that day, Ma Shile mysteriously pulled her aside and asked, "Xiaoxi, are you pregnant?"

Shen Xi was quite surprised: "Why did you suddenly ask that?"

“I heard it from Ms. Yu, a teacher in the Fine Arts Department. She said that when she went to Anxin to visit her aunt last time, she saw you go to the maternity ward.”

Ma Shile whispered, "Her aunt works as a caregiver in the maternity ward. I inquired about it."

Indeed, you can't ignore anyone in this world; you never know where your information was leaked from.

"When she came back, she quietly told her friend, Teacher Zuo, and then Teacher Zuo told Teacher Bai. And then, you know what happened."

Shen Xi: ...

She planned to complain to Qiao Yu later and ask the landlady to reorganize Anxin Hospital.

Although Shen Xi isn't a big star, and her pregnancy isn't exactly a huge secret, she still wouldn't be happy if people spread rumors about it behind her back.

As it turned out, Ma Shile knew more.

"I heard you're having twins. My goodness, twins! Xiaoxi, you're amazing!"

Does this have anything to do with her being capable?

Shen Xi told Ma Shile directly, "I have something to do, I need to go home and take care of it first, we'll talk tomorrow."

That afternoon, Anxin launched a campaign to rectify the bad practices. It is said that they caught several people who accepted bribes and secretly sold patients' hospital information, including caregivers, cleaners, and nurses.

Of course, those patients were all big stars who came to Anxin to prepare for childbirth.

Some paparazzi are willing to pay money to buy this information. Among them is a certain second-tier actress who has made a comeback. She maintains a single image as a career woman, but in reality, she is already more than eight months pregnant and waiting to give birth in the hospital.

Because she is about to start filming her next drama, she plans to have a C-section beforehand so as not to delay things.

Most importantly, she is unmarried and doesn't seem to have a boyfriend yet...

Qiao Yu secretly told Shen Xi all of this in order to make up for Shen Xi's "loss".

Shen Xi thought to herself, "If even the boss's wife is like this, it's no wonder that the people below follow suit. If we need to clean things up, it seems we have to start with Qiao Yu."

However, that didn't stop Shen Xi from enjoying the conversation.

Originally, I thought that was the end of it, but who would have thought that a few days later, everyone at school, whether they knew her or not, knew that Shen Xi was pregnant with her second child, and twins at that.

Most of them were friendly blessings.

but--

Out of nowhere, other rumors started circulating.

It's said that Shen Xi underwent IVF to try for a son after giving birth to a daughter with her first child.

"Otherwise, how could it be twins? It's not that easy to conceive twins naturally. They must have had twins induced so that they would have a son."

Shen Xi didn't hear the rumor at first.

After all, even if she has toned down her temper a lot now, most people wouldn't gossip about her like that. Who would be so tactless as to do that? Unless it's intentional.

Yes, someone did it on purpose, and Deng Wenjun overheard it. She got angry and got into a fight, but... she lost and ended up in the hospital. Shen Xi only found out when she heard the news.

She was extremely anxious and quickly took a taxi to the hospital to see Deng Wenjun.

She felt a sense of guilt that she hadn't killed Bo Ren, yet Bo Ren had died because of her. Sigh...

The fight itself wasn't serious; Deng Wenjun only got a few scratches. But she had a bad habit since she was little: every time she argued with someone, regardless of whether she won or lost, she would lose eleven times out of ten, and she would get so angry that her whole body would go weak and tremble.

It takes half a day to recover.

This time during the fight, she was so angry that her legs went weak, and she tripped on the steps and fell.

He fractured his hand bone and bravely went to the hospital.

This result was unexpected.

When Shen Xi arrived, Deng Wenjun was crying her eyes out. She was terrified of pain; with a fractured bone, she couldn't bear even the slightest pain. She was insisting that the doctor give her another painkiller injection or arrange for a pain pump.

The doctor patiently advised her that there was no need to use a pain pump for such a minor injury.

Besides, she has already received painkiller injections and taken pain medication, so the effects of using the pain pump will not be cumulative.

But she wouldn't listen.

When Shen Xi pushed the door open and went in, the doctor and Deng Wenjun both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ms. Shen, could you please help persuade your friend?"

"Xiaoxi, I'm in so much pain! This doctor won't even give me any medical treatment!"

Well, everyone has their own complaints.

At Shen Xi's signal, the doctor quickly ran away.

As soon as Shen Xi sat down, Deng Wenjun leaned on her shoulder, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Xiaoxi, am I really useless? That Zou Xuefei, I wanted to tear her mouth apart, but not only did I fail, I also tripped and fell."

"What's most infuriating is that I couldn't win the argument with her just now."

In the end, it was a complete loss, a huge loss.

Shen Xi quickly patted her shoulder and comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay. I know you did it all for me. I'll go and avenge you."

"No need!" Deng Wenjun jumped up in fright: "She's pregnant now, and you have both old and new grudges against her. If you lay a hand on her, she'll definitely try to extort money from you!"

“I’m different, I’m not afraid of being extorted.”

Shen Xi felt both amused and touched.

Although Deng Wenjun was timid and afraid of pain, she was a very loyal friend, and it was for her that she was injured.

"Okay, okay, don't get excited, or you'll hurt your hand again."

"I'm so angry! You got pregnant with your second child, and I don't know what nerve Zou Xuefei was hurting. She keeps saying behind your back that you got IVF to have a son."

"She also said that Chen Chuan doesn't like daughters, which is why Sister Caibao can't have the surname Chen, but instead has the surname Shen like you. Can you believe how awful that woman is!"

Are you kidding me? If Shen Xi and Chen Chuan didn't like their daughter, would they have spoiled Cai Bao like that?

Especially for Chen Chuan, Sister Caibao is his lifeline.

You can't say anyone is sexist towards boys, you can't say it's this couple.

Besides, Shen Xi is young and strong, and Chen Chuan looks very strong too. If they want to have a second child, they won't need assistance. Why don't they just give birth naturally?
