Su Ruanruan exchanged a knowing smile with Aunt Li.
Then she started teasing Qin Chao, saying, "I think you’re quite capable! Today, Zhou Yu stared at you for quite a while, reluctant to look away."
Aunt Li chid in, "Is such a thing possible?"
Su Ruanruan nodded, "If you don’t believe , ask Qin Chao."
Qin Chao wanted to deny it but couldn’t.
He also had a fondness for that passionate girl, yet her brother...
Su Ruanruan noticed his thoughts and said, "Her brother is her brother, she is herself!"
Qin Chao felt relieved.
He was extrely grateful to Su Ruanruan.
In his mind, Miss Su was gentle and kind, always understanding others...
After joking around, Su Ruanruan called Qin Chao over.
She softly instructed, "These days, keep an eye on the movents of the grand young madam of the Huo Family!"
Qin Chao understood imdiately.
He said, "Don’t worry, Miss Su, I’ll be sure to watch her closely, especially her belly."
Su Ruanruan laughed and said to Aunt Li, "Look at him, he’s quite promising."
Qin Chao blushed at the praise.
He said honestly, "That’s all thanks to Miss Su’s teaching."
Su Ruanruan sincerely said, "I’m happy with your progress, but it wouldn’t please as much as seeing you settle down with a career. Qin Chao, since you like her, take good advantage of it. Zhou Yu has feelings for you too; such pure love is rare."
Qin Chao softly replied, "Don’t worry, Miss Su, I won’t mistreat her."
Su Ruanruan smiled lightly.

Just as Su Ruanruan had predicted, soon rumors began circulating about the grand young madam of the Huo Family receiving dical treatnt from Doctor Han Ping.
The grand young madam visited the clinic with such ostentation, as if afraid others wouldn’t notice.
A few days later, the high society of Yangcheng had another banquet.
Once soone spread the word, the news about the grand young madam visiting Doctor Han for treatnt beca known throughout the city.
Mrs. Zhou heard the news.
She specially called to remind.
She said, "The grand young madam might be up to sothing against you! She has quite the appetite."
Su Ruanruan smiled faintly, "Don’t worry, Sister Zhou, I have my own plans!"
She added, "Sister Zhou, since you’re feeling bored with the pregnancy, why don’t we go out to watch a play... There’s a famous actor from Shanghai performing two very good plays in the coming days."
Mrs. Zhou agreed with a smile.

In the afternoon, the two t.
In an exquisite box at the Yangcheng Theater, Su Ruanruan and Mrs. Zhou sat listening to the play.
Though they called it listening to the play, they were actually chatting to relieve boredom.
Mrs. Zhou brought up the grand young madam of the Huo Family again, saying, "Liu Xiruo visits Doctor Han Ping every day; if she were pregnant, people would definitely doubt the child’s origin!"
Su Ruanruan chuckled.
She said, "This grand young madam will not bear Huo Family’s descendants."
This remark shocked Mrs. Zhou.
She quickly asked, "What do you an?"
Su Ruanruan explained, "All these years she hasn’t been pregnant because she secretly gave Huo Shaojun a potion that causes infertility! Huo Shaojun assud it was dicine and took it for ten years without a second thought."
Mrs. Zhou was even more shocked.
She pondered, saying, "But they seem to have a loving relationship."
Su Ruanruan quietly revealed, "From Sister Yan’s news, the grand young madam had an abortion early on! Sister Zhou, I think the key lies in that child!"
Mrs. Zhou sighed lightly, "The Huo Family is truly chaotic! I reckon it started with Old Master Huo."
Her words held a deeper aning, and Su Ruanruan could tell.
Mrs. Zhou continued, "You have to be careful, she keeps secrets even deeper than Chen Xishan! If she can plot against the husband beside her, what about others?"
Just as Su Ruanruan was about to respond.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Zhou Huo bringing his sister Zhou Yu over...
Su Ruanruan calmly said, "You’ve co to watch the play too?"
