"Exactly. Congratulations, Mrs. Zhou, on the birth of a son."

Everyone tacitly gathered around, helped Su Minghui tidy herself up, then pushed her out.

Su Minghui held the baby the entire time, refusing to let Su Leyun leave her sight.

This was her child, connected to her by blood. Though he had only just been born, he already occupied all her thoughts.

After leaving the delivery room, the first person Su Minghui saw was Zhou Guomin standing outside its doors.

The moment she saw Zhou Guomin, immense fury rose in her heart, but she quickly forced it down.

Looking at Su Leyun, who was already asleep beside her, Su Minghui blinked out tears. Before Zhou Guomin could speak, she began crying first. "Boohoo, Guomin, that Director Liu was a liar. He clearly said this baby would be a daughter, but it turned out to be another stinking boy. Boohoo, Guomin, our daughter is gone..."

Zhou Guomin stiffened all over. He cast a covert glance at the doctor nearby, and when he saw that neither the doctor nor the nurses dared meet his eyes, he knew the plan had failed.

But he quickly adjusted his expression and gently patted Su Minghui. "It's all right, Minghui. A boy is fine too. Whether it's a boy or a girl, they're both our child."

Su Minghui lowered her head, and a flash of mockery flickered through her eyes.

But she had just given birth and was extremely weak, so she was soon taken to a VIP ward.

Even after entering the ward, Su Minghui kept the baby by her side.

After Zhou Guomin stayed with Su Minghui in the ward for a while and then left, Su Minghui immediately took out her phone and made a call.

"Minghui, why are you calling me at a time like this? How are you feeling? If I remember correctly, your due date was around now..." A soft, delicate voice came from the other end of the line.

Hearing the concern in Li Jiayi's voice, Su Minghui's face was pale, but a smile curled at her lips. "Jiayi, I..."

[Li Jiayi? That Li Jiayi who looked frail and harmless but was actually vicious and ungrateful?]

[Mom, what kind of eyesight do you have? You took a venomous snake for your best friend. You're the truly pitiful one, Mom.]

[Mom, you should stay away from Li Jiayi.]

Su Leyun had just woken up when he heard Su Minghui talking to her "best friend" on the phone. He could not help complaining inwardly as he blew bubbles.

Su Minghui: "..."

The veins stood out on the hand gripping the phone. She took a deep breath and shifted her gaze away from the little baby.

"Jiayi, I'm fine. I just gave birth and wanted to call you."

Su Minghui changed the subject. She merely let Li Jiayi know she was safe, chatted with her for a few sentences, and then hung up.

After ending the call, Su Minghui's face turned even paler. Then she picked up her phone and dialed another number.

She refused to believe she had failed so badly at being a person. How could there possibly be no one around her worthy of trust?

Since Li Jiayi had a problem, she would switch to someone else. Fu Siwen could not possibly have a problem too, could she?

A frustrated breath caught in Su Minghui's chest. The moment the call connected, she deliberately called Fu Siwen's name and carefully watched Su Leyun's expression.

Su Leyun had just woken up and was wide awake. Hearing his bargain-bin mother make another call, he silently eavesdropped.

[Fu Siwen? The childhood friend who grew up with Mom? They went to kindergarten together, elementary school together, middle school together, and finally even attended the same university?]

[Tsk, tsk, tsk. Mom, your family backgrounds were comparable, you grew up together, and you were as close as sisters. Couldn't you learn from her judgment?]

[She married into the Chu Family, one of the Imperial Capital's top elite households. Her husband adores her, and her children are filial, obedient, and well-behaved. And you? You chose a man who married up, who kept a mistress behind your back and even kept a poisonous Xiao Bai at his side. You're clearly a wealthy family's daughter too, yet you've turned yourself into a junk collector, gathering every filthy, rotten thing around you.]

Su Minghui: "..."

This child could not be kept.

Su Minghui gritted her teeth and glared at Su Leyun, who was blowing bubbles, until her cheeks hurt from clenching her jaw.

Yet Su Leyun remained utterly unaware. He blinked his big sparkling eyes and looked innocently at Su Minghui.

[Why is Mom staring at me like that? Did she see through my dashing, handsome appearance to glimpse my truly pure and innocent heart?]

Su Minghui: "..."

Forget it. She was tired. Let it all be destroyed!
