After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

Lin Nian listened intently, and seeing that her elder brother hadn't yet revealed what happened next, she asked, "And then what?"

Ye Qingyu was also very curious, "Didn't you chase after him to Jiangzhou back then? Didn't you manage to bring him back?"

"Uncle," Lin Yunyuan said helplessly, "if we had gotten them back, my child and his child could be in school by now."

Ye Qingyu said smugly, "I knew you hadn't forgotten Qingheng all these years because you were unwilling to get married."

Lin Nian asked, "Could it be that Brother Qingheng is really engaged to someone else?"

"I don't know," Lin Yunyuan said. "Actually, after I went to Jiangzhou, I couldn't find him at all."

Lin Nian frowned. "Jiangzhou is so big, it's really hard to find someone."

Ye Qingyu sighed, "It's just fate playing tricks on us."

Lin Nian said, "Five years ago, Brother Qingheng returned to the capital alone, without a husband by his side. Presumably, he was not married."

He patted Lin Yunyuan on the shoulder, "Brother, you still have a chance."

"Five years ago?!" Lin Yunyuan keenly sensed the passage of time, his face paling slightly. "Why didn't you write to tell me?"

Ye Qingyu asked softly, "Why should I tell you?"

Lin Yunyuan was speechless for a moment.

Yin Cheng was completely confused. "Isn't the focus right now Shen Qingheng's belly?"

"Oh, right!" Lin Nian's eyes immediately turned cold. "Tell me, what's going on?"

Lin Yunyuan opened his mouth, but it took him a long time to find his voice. "I don't remember ever... you know... with him?"

He pointed to himself. "Are you sure Qingheng is talking about me?"

Lin Nian knew her older brother well; he was a man of great loyalty and righteousness, and would never do something like taking advantage of someone and then renege on the agreement.

He said seriously, "I believe my elder brother is innocent, but I also think that Brother Qingheng did not lie."

Ye Qingyu suddenly realized something, and her expression changed completely. "Could it be that someone is impersonating the boss and has fooled Qingheng?"

Lin Yunyuan pondered, "No, that can't be, Qingheng is quite smart too..."

"You're not a boy, you don't understand," Ye Qingyu said. "If someone had given him some kind of underhanded drug, that's entirely possible."

This is no small matter. If word gets out, Brother Qingheng will be finished.

Thinking of this, Lin Nian gasped. He walked to Yin Cheng's side. "Husband, are there any eavesdroppers around here?"

"There are only five of us alive in the whole courtyard, don't worry, everything will be fine," Yin Cheng said.

Lin Nian counted, "Aren't there four of us? Where did five come from?"

He covered his mouth. Could it be that someone was really eavesdropping?

At this moment, the third brother calmly walked out from behind the pillar.

"I just happened to be awake, I just happened to be passing by my brother's yard, and I just happened to overhear him talking about his love life," Lin Yunxu said shamelessly. "It was just too much of a coincidence, I can't help it."

Lin Yunyuan: "..."

All the younger brothers deserve to be beaten, except for Nian Ge'er.

"Don't worry, brother. I've already dismissed all the servants in the manor, so there's absolutely no way the news will leak out."

Yin Cheng squeezed the little beauty's palm. "Your older brother is quite vigilant too, don't worry."

Lin Nian felt relieved after hearing the man say that.

"If you all have no clue, I do have an idea," Lin Yunxu said. "Would you like to hear it, elder brother?"

"Spit it out if you have something to say."

"Brother, you're really rude," Lin Yunxu said. "If we just find a doctor to check your brother-in-law's pulse and then follow the clues, we'll definitely be able to uncover the truth."

Lin Nian said, "But Brother Qingheng doesn't want to see a doctor." He glanced at his elder brother with some concern.

If the eldest brother knew that Brother Qingheng didn't actually intend to keep the child, he would probably be even more heartbroken...

Lin Yunxu said, "That's not difficult at all. We can find a young man who knows how to take a pulse and find out the exact date, then we can follow this clue to investigate."

Ye Qingyu said, "That's a good idea. If someone really bullies Qingheng, we can bring him to live in the Lin family mansion and take care of him and his father."

"Alright, then I'll find a doctor to take a look," Lin Nian said. "Brother, you should also try to remember. Maybe you did it but forgot."

Yin Cheng laughed: "It seems that the young man is indeed different before and after marriage."

They even dared to utter such outrageous words in public.

Lin Nian stared blankly at her husband.

What's different before and after marriage?

Ye Qingyu understood. He cleared his throat and said, "It's almost midnight. Nian-ge'er, you should rest at Youfang Garden tonight and return to the Prince's Mansion early tomorrow morning."

"No, Little Father," Lin Nian said. "I'd better go back and stay with Brother Qingheng to prevent him from doing anything foolish."

Ye Qingyu nodded. "Then be careful on your way back."

Lin Nian nodded, then turned around and hugged Yin Cheng's waist and back.

Ye Qingyu: "???"

"Farewell." Yin Cheng carried Lin Nianfei to the rooftop and quickly disappeared.

Ye Qingyu: "That's why I say these people who know martial arts are annoying. They have a door, but they insist on climbing over the wall."

The third brother nudged his eldest brother, "I also think your brother-in-law wouldn't lie. That child isn't really yours, is it?"

"Think carefully, have you been to any 'special' places or done any 'special' things during this period?"

Ye Qingyu picked up the feather duster from the ground. "If it really belongs to your older brother, I'll beat him to death, and then I'll beat you to death too."

The third brother was shocked. "What does this have to do with me?"

"Okay, go find a husband and you won't get beaten up anymore."

"..."

How did this get linked to his marriage?

Lin Yunxu said with a forced smile, "Strange, why am I suddenly sleepy?"

He yawned. "I have to go to court tomorrow, so I'm going to sleep now."

Ye Qingyu ignored him.

He patted his eldest son on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, get some rest."

He paused for a moment, then said, "If you still want to marry Qingheng, and Qingheng agrees to marry you, I will definitely agree to the marriage."

Lin Yunyuan felt a warmth in his heart. "Okay, I understand."

On the way back to the Prince's residence, Lin Nian asked, "Husband, do we have a physician in our household?"

Yin Cheng was pleased by the young beauty's words "our household," and he replied cheerfully, "Although there is no doctor, there is a young man who can take pulses."

When Yinzhu was woken up, she was still groggy.

"Greetings, Your Highness. May Your Majesty enjoy boundless blessings and peace." His mind was still not clear, so he pinched his thigh hard.

The pain quickly brought him to his senses.

Lin Nian: "...Ahem, you don't need to use so much force next time."

Yinzhu obediently replied, "Yes."

Lin Nian asked, "You know how to take a pulse?"

Yinzhu glanced at Yin Cheng, and only after seeing Yin Cheng nod did she nod as well, saying, "I will."

Lin Nian said, "Tomorrow, secretly go and feel Young Master Shen's pulse to see how big his baby is."

"Yes."

"Don't tell anyone about this, and don't let Young Master Shen find out. It must be done secretly, understand?"

"Rest assured, Your Majesty!" Yinzhu replied, "I will certainly not fail in my mission!"
