His expression became uglier and uglier as he listened to the report on the other end of the phone. As soon as he asked for the address, he immediately asked the driver to send him over.

Along the way, Bai Xiao’s face was cold. The driver did not dare to ask further. He could only drive at the speed limit and send Bai Xiao to the restaurant Hu Ke and Wen Huai had agreed on.

As soon as Bai Xiao got out of the car, he saw Hu Ke, who was still in shock, and Shu Xue, who was pressed to the ground.

Seeing him coming, Shu Xue immediately twisted on the ground and shouted, “Brother Bai Xiao, save me!”

Bai Xiao had already understood the situation from the bodyguard over the phone. At this moment, he looked down at Shu Xue on the ground and snorted. “Wait for me to tell the police about this.”

The police who arrived a little earlier than Bai Xiao had already completed the evidence collection.

The dashcam in Shu Xue’s car recorded everything clearly. There were also many people around who testified. With witnesses and evidence present, Shu Xue was quickly taken away by the police.

When Bai Xiao walked in front of Hu Ke, Hu Ke seemed to have not recovered from the shock. Her hand was still protecting her lower abdomen, and she was in a daze. No one knew what she was thinking.

Seeing her like this, Bai Xiao knew that she was frightened.

Recalling the rare good sleep last night, Bai Xiao sighed and said in a rare calm voice, “Let’s go to the hospital for a checkup.”

Hu Ke seemed to have returned to her senses after being called by him. She raised her head in a daze and met Bai Xiao’s gaze.

Bai Xiao thought that she did not hear him clearly. Just as he was about to repeat himself, he was caught off guard and hugged tightly by Hu Ke.

Bai Xiao was stunned. Wen Huai and the surrounding bodyguards were also stunned.

Bai Xiao subconsciously wanted to push Hu Ke away. His impression of Hu Ke was still stuck at the description of ‘deeply scheming’.

Bai Xiao’s first reaction was to avoid being hugged by someone he hated.

However, before he could do anything, he felt a slightly cold liquid slowly slide down his neck. There were more and more of them.

Hu Ke was crying.

Realizing this, Bai Xiao paused. Other than the hotel bed where he and Hu Ke first met, Bai Xiao had never seen Hu Ke cry. Now that she suddenly cried, Bai Xiao was shocked.

After hesitating for a while, Bai Xiao, who was about to push Hu Ke’s hand away, slowly stroked her back and patted it to comfort her.

Bai Xiao sighed and thought to himself, ‘Let’s just treat it as repaying the favor of that calming incense.’

After Hu Ke calmed down, she crawled out of Bai Xiao’s arms in embarrassment and typed on her phone.

[I’m sorry, I lost my composure just now.]

Bai Xiao shook his head, stood up, and walked out. “If you can walk by yourself, follow me to the hospital to check if the child is alright.”

Hu Ke nodded and took a few pieces of paper to wipe her tears. She stood up and was about to make a gesture to Wen Huai when Wen Huai stood up with a face full of disbelief.

“You’re pregnant? When did you get pregnant? Who’s the father? Are you married?”

When Bai Xiao heard the commotion behind him, he stopped.

He did not seem to intend to explain. He just crossed his arms and sized up the two people over there with interest.

Hu Ke seemed to have remembered something and gasped.

Ever since she got pregnant, she had never told Wen Huai that she was pregnant and had even registered her marriage!

At this moment, Wen Huai was like an angry little beast. She bounced from the stool to Hu Ke and asked, “Tell me! Am I still your best friend? Why did you hide it from me for so long? When did you get married? Who did you marry?”

Before Hu Ke could explain, Wen Huai seemed to have remembered something and muttered to himself, “That’s not right. You know so few people. Why don’t I know when you’re in a relationship? Moreover, even if you’re married and pregnant, it can’t be so fast. Moreover, Uncle and Auntie have only passed away for more than a month. Don’t tell me you were framed by your brother?”

Hu Ke did not expect Wen Huai, who usually looked heartless, to piece together everything so quickly in just a few minutes.

Hu Ke subconsciously looked in Bai Xiao’s direction.

Wen Huai noticed this glance again. She seemed to have been possessed by Sherlock Holmes in an instant and thought of everything.
