Chapter 920: Suspicious and Uneasy

President Shi Mai’er nodded contentedly, "He is a responsible man and ambitious in his career. As the head of a large corporation, his work must be heavy, and you should support him."

"I understand that, Dad. Don’t worry, I’ll be Jinhan’s solid backing."

Father and daughter talked on video call for over ten minutes before ending it.

Song Yinyin took her son to the bedroom to sleep, and when she returned to her room, it was already past nine in the evening.

The sky outside was already completely dark, and Lu Jihan still hadn’t returned, making Song Yinyin’s heart increasingly anxious.

She wasn’t sure why, but ever since seeing Chi Wen in the CEO’s office during the day, her heart felt uneasy, as if something might happen that night.

Was she overthinking? Maybe it was because she was pregnant, making her more suspicious?

The phone was still tightly clutched in her hand, as she hesitated whether to call him, worrying it might interrupt his work...

Finally, unable to hold back, she picked up her phone and sent a message to Lu Jihan.

[Drink less, come home early, and be safe on the road.]

After sending the message, she waited by the window.

Given Lu Jihan’s personality, he wouldn’t ignore the message unless he hadn’t seen it...

Ten minutes passed, and still no reply, making Song Yinyin begin to worry.

Did he really not see the message?

Should she send another one?

Or wait a little longer?

As Song Yinyin looked at her phone screen and touched it lightly, the photo from their honeymoon in S Country appeared.

That night’s moonlight was particularly beautiful, wandering along the white sandy beach with him, he carried her, they laughed, holding hands all the way, serene and happy...

Later, he carried her back to the hotel, and under the moonlight, she captured the photo and set it as a wallpaper.

Her finger lightly touched Lu Jihan’s face on the screen; the screen was hard and flat, yet her fingertips felt warm as if being gently heated by water.

But then Chi Wen’s face appeared in her mind again.

Would she also attend the gala?

Judging from her tone, it’s likely she would.

The phone remained black on the screen, silent, while her heart gradually grew restless again.

She was grappling with indecision when suddenly her phone vibrated.

The screen displayed the word ’Husband’.

It’s him!

Lu Jihan was calling her!

Song Yinyin felt a surge of joy and immediately answered the call.

"Hello, Jinhan, you..."

Yet the voice coming through was a woman’s, making her feel as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her, chilling her from head to toe.

"Mr. Lu, don’t, don’t do this, oh no..."

Bang—

At that moment, Song Yinyin’s head spun, nearly collapsing from dizziness.

Frozen for four or five seconds, she was about to speak when a rustling sound came through the earpiece, and then the call was abruptly cut off.

She became stiff.

Her heart skipped a beat, as if it had suddenly stopped.

Moreover, it felt as though something was viciously squeezing her throat, making it difficult to breathe, with a stifling pressure on her chest.

The next second, she immediately dialed Lu Jihan’s number.

However, a mechanical female voice replied, "The number you dialed is temporarily switched off."

"..."

Song Yinyin was frozen cold all over.

She recognized the voice—it was Chi Wen!

But she refused to believe what she just heard; surely something happened to Jinhan, how could he possibly be with Chi Wen...
