Xie Jingchen gazed thoughtfully towards the kitchen. Although the door was already closed, bursts of laughter still occasionally filtered through, indicating that the women inside were getting along very well.
He listened with great pleasure for his wife.
It truly put his mind at ease to know his wife had found companions she could relate to here. At the very least, when he was away on missions, she wouldn’t have to simply sit at home alone! Just the thought made him feel both heartache and guilt.
He diverted his gaze once more, focusing on Yan Jinchang furrowing his brows—
If Changzi’s suspicions were true, how would his wife dispel the suffering she endured in the Zhang Family?
On the other hand, the woman who took her place received the family happiness that rightfully belonged to her, while she, in the Zhang Family, not only failed to receive any kindness but was almost driven to her death!
No, it should be said that ’Zhang Shanni’ was practically driven to death the moment she jumped into the lake!
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Xie Jingchen frowned and said to Yan Jinchang:
"Changzi, I must warn you seriously, your sister-in-law is now pregnant with twins, don’t provoke her with this kind of thing, it’s not good for her health! If you really want to know the truth, you can search for answers privately!"
Yan Jinchang was equally skeptical, his strong reaction hinting that perhaps the camp commander’s wife could really be a child of the Yan Family.
Otherwise, he could not explain why Zhang Shanni bore such a striking resemblance to their grandmother, resembling the Yan Family to such a degree!
But if he were to investigate without restraint, no matter what the truth turned out to be, someone would inevitably get hurt. If it turned out that Zhang Shanni truly was their father’s illegitimate daughter, given his mother’s temperament...
After all, Zhang Shanni was someone he had only just met, even though Yan Jinchang had a natural fondness for her. But in the end, she was not his biological sister!
Only Yan Jinxian was his sister by the same mother!
Though this sister might have been spoiled by their brothers since childhood, growing up to be willful and capricious, and even her bad temperament meant that unlike his elder brother and younger brother’s consistent indulgence, he was always able to be stern with her when she was about to make a mistake.
Perhaps it was because of this, that his younger sister felt the least affection for him, instead being closest to their elder brother. Since their younger brother had been ill for many years and their mother always had to care for him, the younger sister grew up even more spoiled and wilful under the elder brother’s protection.
But undeniably, compared to Zhang Shanni, who might be an illegitimate sister, his heart still leaned towards his own mother and sister.
Yet, seeing Zhang Shanni’s slender figure despite her pregnancy, in contrast with his rosy and endearing younger sister, the difference in their lives couldn’t be clearer!
Even if the truth was painful, one still needed to find out the ’reality’! Yan Jinchang felt he simply couldn’t do nothing.
Yes, how the truth unfolded, he must investigate himself. Otherwise, it would only cause him more concern for his family. It was better to control the outcome himself, rather than be embroiled in a public scandal!
"Wait, what did you say?" Yan Jinchang was debating whether to investigate the identity of the camp commander’s wife and had almost missed the most crucial point!
"..." Xie Jingchen simply frowned sternly, fixing his gaze on him, his eyes conveying a threat that was no joke.
But at that moment, Yan Jinchang couldn’t care less about Xie Rash’s reputation and started to question, "Boss, are you saying that sister-in-law is pregnant with twins? Is it really such a coincidence??"
