He Yaoyao's fingers trembled slightly as the photo kept zooming in and out on her screen. She tried to find a possibility of misunderstanding from every detail, but that intimate picture was like a sharp blade, cutting her heart again and again.

Tears welled up in her eyes, but she fought hard not to let them fall.

He Yaoyao took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calm. "Detective, is there any other evidence? Like what they talked about, or more photos?"

"Ms. He, we are continuing to follow up the investigation, but this is the most directly relevant evidence at the moment. If further information is needed, it may take more time." The private detective's voice came through the phone line with a hint of professional calmness.

After hanging up the phone, He Yaoyao threw the phone aside, curled up on the sofa, and tears finally burst out.

She didn't understand why the man who had promised her a stable life would do such a thing when she needed him the most.

As night fell, Nicholas Tse returned home on time and noticed an unusual atmosphere in the house as soon as he entered.

He walked towards He Yaoyao and found that her face was pale and her eyes were red and swollen. An ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

"Yaoyao, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Xie Tingxuan asked with concern, reaching out to touch her cheek.

He Yaoyao suddenly dodged his hand and looked at him with complicated eyes, which contained both anger and disappointment. "Xie Tingxuan, do you have anything else to say?" Her tone was cold, completely different from her usual gentleness.

Xie Tingxuan looked confused, "Yaoyao, what do you mean? What's wrong with me?"

He Yaoyao stood up from the sofa and showed him the photos on her phone. "Take a look for yourself. Do you need me to explain?"

The moment Xie Tingxuan saw the photo, his face changed suddenly, but he quickly calmed down and explained: "Yaoyao, it's not what you think. There's nothing between me and this woman."

"Nothing? You've already done it, and you still say it's nothing?" He Yaoyao became emotional. She couldn't believe that Xie Tingxuan would deny it so easily.

"Yaoyao, you have to believe me, my feelings for you have never changed. I met her because I signed up for a training class for expectant fathers and she was a teacher there. That day, she fell and deliberately fell on me. Later I reported her to the training institution and she had bad intentions, so the training institution has dismissed her." Xie Nicholas Tse was eager to prove his innocence and told everything.

"Training class for prospective fathers?" He Yaoyao's red eyes were filled with confusion.

"Yes, it's the prospective father training class. I originally wanted to give you a surprise after I got the certificate, but I didn't expect to tell you in advance now."

As He Yaoyao listened to Xie Tingxuan's explanation, the anger and sadness in her heart were gradually replaced by doubts.

She looked carefully at the background of the photo. It did look like the entrance of a training institution, and the woman's expression did seem a little exaggerated, not like a natural intimacy.

"You really didn't lie to me?" There was a hint of uncertainty in He Yaoyao's voice. She wanted to believe Xie Tingxuan, but was afraid of being hurt again.

Xie Tingxuan shook his head firmly, his eyes full of sincerity: "Yaoyao, I have never lied to you, and I will not lie to you now. I know you are pregnant and your emotions are easily fluctuating, but I promise that everything I do is for our future and this little life that is about to be born."

"If you still don't believe me, I can have the director of the training institution call you to prove my innocence."

He Yaoyao looked at Xie Tingxuan's sincere eyes, and the balance in her heart began to sway.

She knew that trust was the cornerstone of a marriage, and suspicion would only tear the relationship apart, but she couldn't ignore the shock and heartache the photo had brought her.

"Okay, ask the director of the training institution to call me. I want to confirm it in person." Although He Yaoyao's voice was still trembling, it was much firmer than before.

Nicholas Tse immediately took out his cell phone and called the training institution.

After a brief communication, the head teacher quickly agreed to call He Yaoyao and explain the whole incident in person.

A few minutes later, He Yaoyao's cell phone rang and she picked up the call.

The head teacher described in detail Xie Nicholas Tse's performance in the training class and the misunderstanding that occurred with the female teacher that day.

The principal also emphasized that the female teacher had been dismissed for misconduct. The training institution deeply regretted the incident and promised to strengthen the management and training of its employees.

After listening to the director's explanation, He Yaoyao finally calmed down a little.

She realized that she might have been affected by the sensitivity and anxiety during pregnancy, which led to her unnecessary suspicion of Nicholas Tse.

"I'm sorry, Tingxuan, I wronged you." He Yaoyao looked at Xie Tingxuan, her eyes full of apology and gratitude.

Xie Tingxuan gently held her hand and said softly, "Yaoyao, it's okay. I know you're having a hard time right now. I will always be by your side, supporting you and protecting you. If anything happens in the future, we will face it together. Don't bear it alone anymore."

He Yaoyao nodded, tears streaming down her face again, but this time out of emotion and relief.

She hugged Xie Nicholas tightly, as if she wanted to melt all her anxieties and doubts in this hug.

After explaining the misunderstanding, Xie Tingxuan finally remembered to ask about the real matter, "By the way, Yaoyao, how did you get this photo?"

Now it was He Yaoyao's turn to panic. She had no idea how to explain it.

But she couldn't get away with not explaining, so she could only confess, "I got carried away and hired a private detective to follow you."

"Following me?" Xie Tingxuan looked incredulous. "It doesn't seem like something you would do."

"I..." He Yaoyao's face flushed red, and she had no idea what to say.

I am probably just blinded by love now!

She was also afraid that Xie Tingxuan would be angry, and looked at him with some uneasiness.

Unexpectedly, Tingxuan Xie was not angry at all. Instead, he looked very happy. "It's nothing. I won't be angry. I know this is a sign that you care about me. On the contrary, I am very happy. It proves that you love me very much."

He Yaoyao looked incredulous, "You don't have a fever, do you? Are you dizzy?"

Xie Tingxuan smiled faintly, "No, I'm not crazy or stupid, I'm really happy. You do this so that I can clearly feel your care and love for me."

"You are a pervert, right? How could anyone be like that?" He Yaoyao scolded with a smile.

Xie Tingxuan laughed heartily, hugged He Yaoyao tightly in his arms, and said softly: "Maybe I am a pervert in the eyes of others, but I only know that as long as I can make you feel my love, even if the method is a little special, I am happy to do it."

He Yaoyao felt a warm feeling in her heart when she heard his words.

She understood that Nicholas Tse's tolerance and understanding were the parts she cherished most in this relationship.

She leaned lightly on his shoulder, feeling the solid support.

"Tingxuan, thank you. I won't be so impulsive in the future, and I will learn to trust you more." He Yaoyao said softly, with a hint of determination in her tone.
