Chapter 212: Chapter 212 Fu Yanhe is a Fake!
Shen Yanhe was caught between laughter and tears.
She approached and softly took hold of Ye Min’s arm, explaining gently, "Grandma, we haven’t divorced. He really is Fu Yanhe, it’s just that the scars on his face have been removed."
"This face, this is how he originally looked."
Ye Min understood, "Oh, I see."
She looked Fu Yanhe up and down and couldn’t stop marveling, "He’s so handsome, this boy is too handsome, even more so than your deceased grandpa."
Fu Yanhe couldn’t help but laugh, "Grandma, you flatter me."
"Yanyan, you chat with grandma, I’ll go pay the bills," Fu Yanhe said tenderly to Shen Yanhe, considerately.
Shen Yanhe nodded, "Okay."
She pulled Ye Min to a chair in the hallway and sat down, inquiring about Shen Huai’s recent condition.
Yanhe spoke while holding her hand, rambling on, "The medicine you brought last time, after Shen Huai got the injection he seemed much more spirited."
"He’s awake for longer periods of the day now, and he can even walk a bit on his own."
The medicine Shen Huai was currently using was an enhanced version of the C02 agent that she had developed after her first revision of the formula. She quietly noted all of Shen Huai’s reactions to the medicine and planned to make further targeted adjustments once she returned to the lab.
"By the way," Ye Min suddenly lowered her voice and asked her, "How’s your relationship with Yanhe? Why, after being married for so long, is there still no sign of a baby? When do you two plan to have children?"
Shen Yanhe was momentarily stunned, as thoughts of the child she had unexpectedly lost before came to mind, bringing a sharp pain to her chest.
However, her face did not show any sign of distress as she smiled and replied, "Our relationship is very good. As for a child, we’re still young, there’s no need to rush."
"How can you not be in a hurry?" Ye Min frowned, speaking earnestly, "It’s because you’re young that you should have children earlier, so you can be free sooner."
"Also, I’m still healthy and strong right now, and can help you take care of the child once you have one."
"The most important thing is," Ye Min looked around cautiously, seeing that Fu Yanhe was speaking quietly to the doctor at the door of Shen Huai’s room, she leaned closer to Shen Yanhe, whispering, "A child can secure Yanhe’s heart!"
Shen Yanhe: "..."
She didn’t know what kind of gossip Ye Min witnessed in the hospital every day to come up with such an idea.
Can a child really secure a man’s heart?
Not necessarily.
A child always secures a mother’s heart.
Shen Yanhe, feeling somewhat helpless, didn’t outright refute Ye Min, but gently suggested, "Yanhe and I will think about it."
She changed the subject: "By the way, Grandma, I’m planning to buy a place nearby for you to live in. Do you have any preferences for the style?"
"Why buy a place for me? I have a house in the countryside," Ye Min frowned, objecting outright, "I don’t like living in the city with its pollution. I can’t raise chickens or ducks, or grow vegetables. If you’re buying, buy for yourself. If you ever have a quarrel with Yanhe, you’ll have somewhere to go."
Shen Yanhe: "...Okay."
"All right, you go look for Yanhe. He’s been gone for a long time just to make a payment; he might have gotten lost. I’m going to take a shower; I feel sticky and uncomfortable," Ye Min said dismissively as she shooed Shen Yanhe away.
"I’ll take care of Shen Huai. If anything happens, I’ll notify you immediately."
Shen Yanhe nodded in response to Ye Min, who entered the room, and then Shen Yanhe stood up. She stood outside Shen Huai’s hospital room, gazing through the glass at the small figure on the hospital bed.
Her heart felt as if it was being clenched by a pair of large hands, uncomfortable and a little short of breath.
She pursed her lips.
Just wait a bit longer, she would quickly develop a medicine to save little Shen Huai.

Meanwhile, at the same time.
Fu Family Manor.
Fu Yu, having witnessed the black and white photograph of Fu Yanhe, fled from that room in a panic and ran desperately back to her own bedroom, slamming the door shut forcefully.
She leaned against the door with her back, body sliding down slowly to sit on the floor in a disheveled state, her eyes filled with fear.
The person mom was paying respects to just now was Fu Yanhe?
Does that mean Fu Yanhe already died in a car accident two years ago?
Then... who is the Fu Yanhe now?
He’s... fake?
Fu Yu’s heart trace a stroke of realization at that moment.
No wonder, no wonder the big brother became so different in temperament after the car accident, being unkind not only towards her but their mother, and even Xia Ran, whom he once deeply loved.
Even when Xia Ran had called off their engagement back then, his reaction was so indifferent.
And he had so easily fallen in love with some girl from the countryside.
So, he was a fake too.
The fear in Fu Yu’s heart was gradually diluted by the excitement of discovering this secret.
Gradually, dissatisfaction welled up inside her.
The fake now, using her brother’s name, her brother’s title, was unkind to her and had even upset their grandmother because of that country girl, sending her to the hospital.
He was currently enjoying the convenience that the title of the Fu Family’s young master brought him. He had also been harsh on her because of that country girl back at the hospital.
He didn’t even help her chase after Brother Yunqian.
The more she thought, the more dissatisfied Fu Yu became, her gaze growing heavy.
She wanted to expose him.
She wanted everyone to know that the current Fu Yanhe was nothing but a fake.
After thinking it through, Fu Yu decided to call Xia Ran first.
If Xia Ran knew that the Fu Yanhe who was insulting her was an impostor who had taken the place of her fiancé, she would certainly help her out.
At that moment.
Xia Family villa.
Su Lan and Xia Ran weren’t seriously injured, and after staying in the hospital for four days, they returned home to recuperate.
Because of the Fu Family’s news blackout, they were still unaware that Lu Yunkai had been arrested, or about Fu Xiao’s gambling debts.
Su Lan, sitting in the living room, dialed Lu Yunkai’s number again but still couldn’t get through, causing her to gradually feel more irritable and panicky.
Ever since leaving the hospital, she had been trying to call Lu Yunkai, but no one answered.
Su Lan was somewhat scared at the thought that their affair might have been discovered. Couldn’t Lu Yunkai have been found by the police and arrested?
The more she thought, the less Su Lan could sit still, pacing back and forth in the living room.
Xia Ran, sitting on the couch peeling an orange, was dizzy from her mother’s pacing and couldn’t help but say, "Mom, can you sit? Walking back and forth like this is making me dizzy."
Su Lan looked at Xia Ran, a flare of anger in her tone with a hint of reproach, "You have the nerve to say that? If it wasn’t for you, would I be so frightened now?"
Xia Ran pursed her lips, muttering under her breath, "How is it my fault if you were the ones who insisted on calling off the engagement with Yanhe? It wouldn’t have come to this if it weren’t for that..."
The more she thought, the more Xia Ran felt indignant, she was just a step away from spending her life with Fu Yanhe.
But one false step led to another, leaving her now with no choice but to marry that old man, Fu Xiao.
Xia Ran felt a blockage of frustration in her chest, and no longer wanted to stay in the living room. She grabbed a couple of oranges and walked out: "Forget it, I’m going for a walk."
Ever since she became pregnant, Xia Ran had constantly craved sour things; she had to have something sour in hand, or she would feel nauseous.
As Xia Ran walked around the garden, passing by a rose bed, she heard a rustling noise coming from the bushes.
She turned to look and saw a disheveled Fu Xiao burst out from the flowerbed.
Xia Ran’s eyes widened and she instinctively wanted to cry out but was quickly silenced by Fu Xiao, who was red-eyed and ferocious, "Shh! Shh! Don’t yell! Don’t yell!"
Fu Xiao hadn’t bathed for many days; his clothes were filthy, and his body smelled sour and rank, overwhelming Xia Ran with waves of nausea, her eyes watering from the pungency.
She nodded repeatedly, indicating she wouldn’t scream.
Only then did Fu Xiao let go of her.
The moment he released her, Xia Ran turned and vomited everything she had just eaten.
Fu Xiao’s face turned ashen.
After throwing up, Xia Ran wiped her mouth, looking at Fu Xiao in utter disarray, unbelieving, "Fu Xiao? How did you end up like this?"
