Chapter 137: Fake Marriage Exposed
the next day.
Mrs. Huo brought some cooked chicken soup to visit Lin Wanwan who was hospitalized.
"Daughter-in-law, how are you feeling? Are you feeling better? Mom made you some chicken soup."
As soon as Mrs. Huo entered the ward, she took Lin Wanwan's hand and asked about her health, her face full of tension and worry.
"Mom, I'm fine now, don't worry." Lin Wanwan smiled faintly.
Mrs. Huo looked at Lin Wanwan's pale face and felt distressed. "Child, you said you were fine even though you were like this. You really scared me this time. You must take good care of yourself, and don't let anything happen again. My little heart can't take it."
As she spoke, Mrs. Huo covered her chest with her hands. She was still a little frightened.
Lin Wanwan nodded gently, a warm feeling welling up in her heart, "Mom, I will."
Mrs. Huo poured out the chicken soup and handed it to Lin Wanwan, "Come, drink some chicken soup to replenish your body."
Lin Wanwan took the chicken soup and took a sip. It tasted delicious. "Mom, this chicken soup is really delicious."
Mrs. Huo smiled. "If it tastes good, drink more. You are our family's key protected person now, so you must take good care of yourself."
Huo Jingchen, who was standing by, smelled the aroma of the chicken soup and couldn't help asking, "Mom, is there any for me?"
Mrs. Huo rolled her eyes at him and said, "Go away. You have no place here."
Huo Jingchen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Was he her biological son?
Lin Wanwan couldn't help laughing when she saw Huo Jingchen's frustrated look. "Mom, please don't be so mean to him."
Mrs. Huo snorted. "If he can take good care of you and prevent you from getting into trouble like this, I won't be so mean to him."
Huo Jingchen quickly expressed his opinion. "Mom, I know I was wrong. From now on, I will stay with Wanwan all the time and will never let anything happen to her again."
Mrs. Huo's expression softened. "That's good enough. Wanwan, drink more chicken soup to keep your body healthy. When the baby is born, our family will be even more lively."
Lin Wanwan nodded obediently and continued to drink the chicken soup.
At this time, the ward was filled with a warm atmosphere.
Mrs. Huo's care made Lin Wanwan feel the warmth of family. She suddenly felt very happy. She had a husband who loved her, and a mother-in-law and sister-in-law who treated her very well.
"By the way, how is grandpa?"
While drinking chicken soup, Lin Wanwan suddenly thought of Mr. Huo who was still in the hospital.
"Alas, the old man hasn't woken up yet. But Ruilin is taking care of him in the ward, Wanwan, you don't have to worry."
Lin Wanwan frowned slightly, her eyes full of worry. "I hope Grandpa can wake up soon."
Mrs. Huo nodded gently and said, "The doctor said that the old man's condition is gradually improving. I believe he will wake up soon."
Lin Wanwan nodded, but the worry in her heart remained unchanged.
Afterwards, Mrs. Huo asked Huo Jingchen to take good care of Lin Wanwan, and she went to Mr. Huo's ward.
Song Zekai came to the ward to visit Lin Wanwan with a basket of fruit.
Lin Wanwan saw Song Zekai and greeted him with a smile: "Zekai, you are here."
Song Zekai put the fruit aside and asked with concern: "Sister-in-law, how do you feel? Are you feeling better?"
Lin Wanwan nodded: "Much better, thank you for your concern."
Huo Jingchen looked at Song Zekai and nodded slightly: "Sit down."
After Song Zekai sat down, he said nervously, "Sister-in-law, I heard about your situation and was really worried. Now that I see that you are okay, I feel relieved."
Lin Wanwan felt warm in her heart: "I'm sorry to have made you worried."
Huo Jingchen seemed to see through that Song Zekai had something to say to him, so he turned to Lin Wanwan and said, "Wanwan, Zekai and I are going out to discuss something, you should have a good rest first."
Lin Wanwan nodded obediently, "Okay, go ahead!"
So, Huo Jingchen and Song Zekai walked out of the ward together and came to the empty corridor.
Huo Jingchen looked at Song Zekai with a questioning look in his eyes: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Song Zekai frowned slightly and said solemnly: "Master Huo, there has been new progress in the investigation of the car accident. We found that the owner's information of the red sports car was deliberately hidden. It seems that someone is obstructing our investigation behind the scenes."
Huo Jingchen's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "It seems that they are guilty. Keep investigating. No matter who is behind this, we must find him out."
Song Zekai nodded and said, "Yes, I have asked Chen Bo to intensify the investigation. In addition, we have captured the itinerary of this red sports car from the surveillance footage near Yu's house. It can be clearly determined that this sports car belongs to the Yu family and it often goes in and out of Yu's house."
As he spoke, Song Zekai handed a thick stack of photos to Huo Jingchen.
Huo Jingchen looked through the photos, picked up a few, and handed the rest to Song Zekai, "Submit this evidence to the police and let them start investigating."
"Yes." Song Zekai nodded, and then hesitantly said, "The news of my sister-in-law's car accident was exposed online, and now people are speculating whether the baby in her belly can be saved."
Huo Jingchen frowned, "Wanwan's situation cannot be known to the outside world for the time being."
Song Zekai added, "There is another thing. Someone broke the news online, saying that your marriage with your sister-in-law was a fake one."
After Huo Jingchen heard this, his face darkened and anger flashed in his eyes. "Find out who leaked the information and deal with it immediately. Wanwan must not be harmed again."
Song Zekai responded: "I have asked someone to check the account of the whistleblower, and there should be results soon. However, public opinion has begun to ferment, and we need to find a way to control the situation as soon as possible."
Huo Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about a countermeasure. "Contact the public relations team, issue a statement, and calm people's hearts. At the same time, strengthen the hospital's security measures to ensure Wanwan's safety."
Song Zekai nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Soon, the news of Huo Jingchen and Lin Wanwan’s fake marriage became a hot topic.
As soon as the news came out, it caused an uproar. Netizens were discussing it, and various speculations and doubts arose one after another.
"No matter what method we use, we must suppress these rumors. We can't let Wanwan see these." Huo Jingchen was making a phone call outside the corridor, asking Chen Bo and others to calm down public opinion as soon as possible.
Chen Bo responded on the phone: "Don't worry, Mr. Huo, I will handle it as soon as possible."
In the ward, Lin Wanwan still had no idea what was happening outside.
At this time, the Yu sisters were watching the development of public opinion on the Internet with pride.
"Sister, the rumors are getting bigger and bigger. The Internet is full of people digging up all kinds of evidence that they are in a fake marriage. We don't even need to prove it. They can't withstand the pressure of public opinion."
Yu Yao looked happy and proud. "Even if the Huo Group issued a statement, it wouldn't be able to stop the netizens from talking."
Yu Wanyin shook her head, seemingly dissatisfied, "This is just the first step, it's not enough."
