2535: Everybody Loves Zhang Manlin (5)

Everybody Loves Zhang Manlin (5)

"Mommy, that's not important. The important thing is… we're very worried, seeing the two of you like this." Little Bean changed the topic cleverly.2

"Like what?" Huo Mian giggled as she ate.

Little Bean pouted and said, "Having the two of you like this… It's making the atmosphere at home incredibly strange… It's scary! I guess our little brother's not coming any time soon."

"The two of you, stop guessing around, okay? Daddy and Mommy are fine."

Huo Mian didn't want to explain further. After the meal, she said goodbye to her in-laws and drove the twins to Sky Blessing Court.

"Uncle Zhixin!" Zhixin picked up the twins, one in each arm, as if he was Hercules.

"I've missed you girls so much!"

"Where's Mom?"

"She went to get you seafood from the market."

"Oh… I'm already sick of seafood from eating too much. Tell her to stop buying it."

"I told her but she wouldn't listen. She always prepares fish, shrimp, and crabs every time you come back home. What blatant favoritism! It's as if I'm not her son or something."

After Huo Mian walked in, she took the initiative to clean her mother's living room, floor, and kitchen.

The twins were watching T.V while snacking on their favorite treats, content as could be.

In the kitchen, Huo Mian was busy wiping away the oil on the range hood. 

Zhixin walked towards Huo Mian. "Sis."

"What?"

"Um… I wanted to talk to you about something." Zhixin touched his nose.

"What is it?" Huo Mian replied, still wiping the range hood.

"Stop cleaning. This is important. I need you to pay attention."

"Okay, what is it?"

Huo Mian smiled at Zhixin's words. She took off her gloves and washed her hands.

"Sis, Bella and I have been talking about the same thing over and over again these days."

"What?"

"About Zhang Manlin and Qin Chu."

Huo Mian: "…"

"You know Zhang Manlin, right? She's working under you right now. I think there's something going on between her and Qin Chu.":

"Zhixin, I've known him for many years. I know what kind of person he is."

"That's what I thought too, but recently… there's been a lot of rumors floating around the company. It's even getting to someone as calm as Bella. She's talked to me about this many times and told me to tell you to raise your guard. I think you should find a way to check his phone… see if he's added that woman on WeChat, or if he's sent her money. It's all evidence."

"And then what? What should I do if I discover something? What should I do if I don't?"

"Uh… that'll be up to you. This is between you and your husband and it's totally your business… But please don't ignore our suggestions just because you trust your husband. I also trust that my brother-in-law isn't that type of person, but everyone is gossiping about this for a reason. Anyway, it's bothering me… After all, where there's smoke, there's most likely fire."

"Okay, I got it."

"Sis, you definitely need to keep an eye on this."

"Yes, I know, but don't tell Mom. She's going to worry. Got it?" Huo Mian warned.

"I know. Don't worry."

"Don't tell me what? What are the two of you whispering about?" Yang Meirong walked in with grocery bags.

"Oh, Sis spent 100,000 on a bag recently. She was afraid that you'd be worried so she didn't want me to tell you." Zhixin was quick on his feet.

"Oh? Is that it?" Yang Meirong looked at them suspiciously.
