Outside the hospital room, Gong Chen and the other two were discussing matters, while inside, Liu He had woken up.
She felt an exhaustion that followed excitement, her entire body weak.
"Zhiyi, do you think mom shouldn’t have had this child? Ever since being pregnant, I feel like danger is all around."
"Mom, what are you saying? I saw the nursery you’ve prepared, it’s beautiful. The baby will definitely like it. You obviously love the baby, so don’t say such discouraging things. We’ll all be here with you."
Lin Zhiyi pressed her mother’s hand against her own face.
Liu He apologized, "When you were little, I didn’t have these means. Now...don’t be angry, okay? Don’t leave me."
"Mom, what are you talking about? I’m right here."
Too many things had happened, and Liu He seemed confused.
Liu He looked at her, "Mm, you’re here with mom."
"Alright."
"What did the doctor say?"
"Just..."
Lin Zhiyi explained simply, avoiding any severe details.
"Sugar? I remember the doctor specifically telling me not to consume too much sugar."
"Yes, that’s the point. But fortunately, it was detected early, so there’s no major problem. The baby has been calmer now."
Lin Zhiyi placed her hand on Liu He’s belly.
Liu He felt reassured after a moment.
"So who is trying to harm me?"
"I don’t know either. But right now, the most important thing is for you to safely give birth."
Lin Zhiyi advised Liu He not to think too much.
When Liu He calmed down, the door opened.
Gong Chen and the other two walked in.
"I have something to show you."
The next moment, Chen Jin came over holding a laptop.
Lin Zhiyi and Liu He exchanged confused glances.
But when the screen turned towards them, Liu He immediately recognized the scene.
"This is...home."
Liu He looked up at Gong Shiyan, seeking answers.
Gong Shiyan explained, "I asked my assistant to return to the villa under the guise of retrieving some documents and placed a camera there. If the person tampering with your medicine is from home, they’ll soon reveal themselves."
"How would they reveal themselves?" Liu He did not understand.
Gong Shiyan immediately dialed the villa’s phone. The maid answered.
"Madam felt unwell after eating. We’re at the hospital now. Please tell the assistant to bring the nutritional supplements that Madam was taking to the hospital; the doctor needs to test them." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"Okay, I’ll go get her right away."
After hanging up, the maid immediately went to find the assistant.
The assistant looked tense upon hearing this. It was unclear if she was worried about Liu He’s health.
Or concerned about being discovered.
Soon, the camera focused on the room.
The assistant took a bag from the cabinet, it already contained Liu He’s change of clothes and toiletries.
Liu He knew she was an older mother, and in case of issues going to the hospital.
The things she prepared herself would be more handy to use.
While everyone was watching the monitor, the assistant walked to the table and began to tidy up the medicine bottles.
She glanced around, then suddenly took a bottle of identical calcium tablets from her pocket and swapped it with the bottle on the table.
Liu He gasped, "How could it be her? I’ve always treated her well."
"Mom, don’t rush, just keep watching," Lin Zhiyi comforted.
On the screen, the assistant closed the door and made a phone call.
"What should I do? Madam is hospitalized, will it be discovered?"
"They asked me to bring all the medicine she’s taking over."
"Yes, I’ve already swapped it. You...who exactly are you? Giving me so much money, can you really guarantee my safety?"
The person on the other end spoke something, and the assistant seemed reassured.
The assistant disappeared from the scene.
Next, the scene shifted, showing Gong Shiyan’s assistant appearing at the family doctor’s place.
The doctor, upon hearing the need for information, acted quickly without hesitation.
So the one swapping Liu He’s medicine was that personal assistant.
Gong Shiyan analyzed, "From the assistant’s words, it’s clear she values money over people and has no idea who the other party is. Even if we catch her now, it’s impossible to completely prevent future occurrences."
Gong Chen chimed in, "So we might as well play along."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhiyi felt relieved.
The fact they said this showed they must have a plan.
