Chapter 26

"Mrs. Qi?" Dr. Jiang looked at Qi Mo curiously and couldn't help asking gossipily.

In her impression, Mr. Qi's expression was always indifferent. Thinking of the news she saw online recently, she reasonably guessed that the information that could make Mr. Qi's eyes gleam with smiles must have come from that Mrs. Qi whom she had only heard of but not met.

Qi Mo's mouth curled up slightly and he nodded.

Dr. Jiang said, "Granny must be very happy to see you and your wife get along so well."

Qi Mo smiled gently without answering.

Granny Qi was kind and easy-going. She treated Dr. Jiang as a junior and would occasionally call her to chat even after she resigned from work.

The elderly always centered their lives around their descendants. She had mentioned her grandson Qi Mo's marriage to Dr. Jiang more than once, worried that Qi Mo and Sheng Mumu's relationship might not be as sweet as other newlyweds' because it was arranged by their elders.

Now that she saw Mr. Qi's expression with her own eyes, Dr. Jiang was genuinely happy for the old lady.

When they arrived, Dr. Jiang got off the car, bent down and said to the people in the car, "Mr. Qi, I'll keep what you told me in mind. When Granny comes to the city, I'll arrange a full physical examination for her."

Qi Mo nodded, "Thanks for the trouble."

Dr. Jiang smiled, "It's me who should thank you for giving me a ride."

"You're welcome. It's on my way anyway."

After thanking Qi Mo, Dr. Jiang walked into the residential area.

Standing at the entrance of the residential area, she didn't go in directly. Instead, she stood still and looked up for a while.

She had been working hard in Guangzhou for over ten years since her graduation. Now she had finally realized her dream of buying a nice house in the city and owning her own clinic. A bright future was waving to her.

Dr. Jiang took a deep breath and walked in full of confidence.

She didn't know that not far away, at the door of a boutique store, two women had been gazing at her and gossiping about her.

"I'm not seeing it wrong, am I? That man in the car just now looks like Qi Mo Qi, doesn't he?"

"You're not mistaken. I've bumped into his car coming in and out of the community several times. It's definitely his car."

"My god! That woman getting off his car didn't look like Mrs. Qi. Could she be...?" The woman looked meaningfully at the other.

The other immediately understood. "Tsk, tsk, she must be a mistress. The houses here aren't cheap. No mistress could afford such a nice house."

"Yeah, that makes sense!"

"Men with money are all like this. Their families are intact, but they have colorful flags fluttering outside."

"Poor Mrs. Qi. They just got married. I thought they would have a wonderful relationship." The woman sneered a few times.

"I can't wait to share this with Mrs. Wang. She loves gossip."

"Haha, if you tell Mrs. Wang, won't everyone know?"

After speaking, the two women giggled covering their mouths, exchanging a look as if waiting to watch the show.

Wang Qinwei was still irritated by Sheng Mumu. Suddenly hearing this explosive news, she was so shocked that her mouth gaped open.

She kept asking, "For real? What? Mr. Qi, our Mr. Qi in the villa area?"

"Are you sure it's our Mr. Qi in the community?"

The person on the phone affirmed, "I saw it with my own eyes. You say, is it true or not?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Qinwei suddenly laughed, as if relieved.

"So that's why Mrs. Qi was subtly taunting me in the group chat just now. Turns out her husband is keeping a mistress outside, and she feels imbalanced seeing my husband and I get along so well!" The person on the phone, eager to watch the show, continued fueling the fire, "That's right!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Qinwei privately chatted with several wives she was close with and shared the "explosive gossip" she had just gotten.

Rumors often spread faster than one could imagine. In less than half a day, nearly half of the wives in the group knew about it.

And the other half all got to know when Wang Qinwei posted a wrong message in the group, whether intentionally or not.

【Wang Qinwei: I'm sure I didn't see it wrong. A pretty short-haired woman got off Mr. Qi's car and went back to their love nest.】

At this moment, Sheng Mumu was checking the group chat records and the list of people who had purchased flower shop memberships, carefully avoiding mistakes.

Seeing the sudden message, she first had an expression of eating melon.

When she looked closely and realized "Mr. Qi" referred to Qi Mo, her face darkened and her brows deeply furrowed.

Oh my, the melon hit her own family?

Ever since she transmigrated here, she had been very clear that she and Qi Mo were contractual spouses. If Qi Mo had other women outside, whether it was a fleeting affair or for that kind of need, it would be very normal.

Men, what's more, rich mature men.

It was none of her business and she had no right to intervene.

But when the rumor was thrown at her face, she was at a loss for a moment.

She urgently asked: When a wife finds her husband keeping a mistress outside, how should she react most normally?

Please advise ASAP.

To act well as a contractual spouse and earn the monthly 500,000 yuan salary, she had to face problems she shouldn't have at such a young age.

Soon in the wives' group chat, Wang Qinwei's message received several replies.

【Mrs. Zhou: What? Mr. Qi, can't be our Mr. Qi in the villa area, right? [Shocked][Shocked][Shocked]】

【My Baby of Mr. Wu's Family: I don't know if I should say this, but there's only one family with the surname Qi in our community...】

【Mr. Zheng's Precious Wife: @Wang Qinwei, did you post to the wrong chat? You can't say things carelessly like that.】

Wang Qinwei counted the time after sending the message. At 1 minute 50 seconds, she quickly recalled it.

Then she pretended to slip her hand and said, "Oops, my hand slipped. I accidentally posted it to the group. Just ignore it, everyone."

Those who didn't get to eat the hot melon asked, "What is it? What happened?"

Wang Qinwei acted very awkward and said, "Not convenient to talk about it in the group."

Having watched the whole show, Sheng Mumu exclaimed inwardly: Goodness.

Now the whole world knew Qi Mo had a woman outside.

She couldn't help covering up for him even if she wanted to. Soon, several wives privately messaged Sheng Mumu.

【Um... Mrs. Qi, are you okay?】

【Mrs. Qi, don't be sad. This is too common. To be honest, I suspect mine also keeps a mistress outside.】

【Mrs. Qi, do you need me to go beat up the mistress?】

Sheng Mumu took a deep breath, feeling blue and laughing. "..."

On the other hand, Wang Qinwei felt happy for letting off steam and felt like she had done something big, fully fulfilled.

That night when her husband came home, she walked over swaying her waist,

"Baby, our wives' group chat was so lively today."

Mr. Wang responded casually while changing shoes,

"Oh? What happened, sweetie?"

Wang Qinwei giggled covering her mouth and said,

"Mr. Qi, our Mr. Qi in the community, his affair got exposed and it spread all over the group chat."

Mr. Wang paused and spoke solemnly,

"Don't go along with those people making a fuss in the group."

His company had business dealings with Qi Mo's company. Offending Qi Mo over women's gossips could cause trouble.

Seeing her husband's stern tone, Wang Qinwei pouted charmingly.

"What do you mean making a fuss? It was me who told them."

Hearing this, Mr. Wang rushed over before even changing his shoes properly and grabbed her wrist.

"What? You talked about the Qi family's private affairs in the group? You're so bored!"

"Ouch, you're hurting me!" Wang Qinwei looked at her husband aggrievedly and complained, "What's wrong? Mrs. Qi said in the group this afternoon that I walk stumbling because I have cerebral atrophy. Why can't I fight back a little? You're not standing up for me but scolding me instead!"

After speaking, Wang Qinwei punched her husband's chest with small fists.

Unexpectedly, her husband was not as caring and gentle as usual. He scolded seriously,

"Foolishness! Qinwei, it seems I've spoiled you too much!"

Wang Qinwei's nose soured. She felt her husband didn't understand her at all, but didn't dare to really get angry either. She could only start sobbing.

Usually as long as she cried, her husband would definitely come to coax her.

But this time, her husband completely ignored her. He walked quickly into the study and slammed the door.

At this moment, Mr. Wang had something more important than coaxing his wife — calling Qi Mo to apologize.

It took him a long time before he got through to Qi Mo's phone.

"Mr. Qi, I'm so sorry to bother you this late. My wife doing something like that, I sincerely apologize!"

On the phone, Qi Mo didn't understand what he meant, "Hmm?"

Mr. Wang spoke respectfully, "My wife is as stupid as a pig, talking nonsense in the group chat, causing trouble for you and your wife."

Hearing this, a cold gleam flashed across Qi Mo's deep eyes, and his jaw slowly tensed.

His voice was low: "What trouble?"
