My Inner Thoughts Are Heard by the Entire Noble Academy

The Xiao Family's Aunt held a high position in the family hierarchy despite her young age.

Being young herself, she was quite receptive to new ideas.

Sometimes, people tend to be prejudiced, firmly believing what they want to believe and finding various reasons to support their predetermined conclusions.

At this moment, the Xiao Family's Aunt was thinking that if Ji Chunsheng didn't have feelings for her nephew, they wouldn't have remained friends for over a decade.

Ji Chunsheng had never had a girlfriend, but right after her nephew got married, he suddenly got one at lightning speed. Either he had given up on love after her nephew's marriage and wanted to find a woman just to appease his family, or he might be using his girlfriend to provoke his "true love."

As these thoughts crossed her mind, the Xiao Family's Aunt felt goosebumps all over her body.

She couldn't help but wonder if Ji Chunsheng's feelings were one-sided or if there was something more to the story.

Nowadays, there's this thing called "contract marriage," isn't there?

It wasn't uncommon in their social circle for rich second-generation heirs to fall desperately in love with girls from ordinary families and insist on marrying them.

The Xiao Family's Aunt had previously dismissed her nephew as simply being love-struck.

Now she was thinking seriously.

If her nephew preferred men, then this person would be her nephew's "true love," and his desperate desire to marry Du Xinyue, a girl from an ordinary family, wasn't because of deep love for her.

Was it because he thought girls from ordinary families were easier to control?

Would they not interfere with their relationship?

Xiao Chengmin: Here I am lying in a hospital bed, and trouble falls from the sky.

Realizing that the man before her could be her nephew's "true love," the Xiao Family's Aunt felt a chill run through her body but slightly softened her tone.

The Xiao Family's Aunt had much to say, but it all came out as a long sigh, "You... you both... ah..."

Ji Chunsheng thought: She hasn't said anything explicitly, but somehow it feels even more offensive than before, how is that possible?

Xiao Feiyu had a bad feeling - had her aunt misunderstood something?

With her brother seriously injured and unconscious, which would be less shocking when he woke up: learning that his wife was involved with his best friend, or discovering that his family thought he and his best friend were a couple?

Xiao Feiyu thought either revelation would be enough to make her brother pass out again immediately.

Ji Chunsheng didn't bother explaining to the unfamiliar Xiao Feiyu and the Xiao Family's Aunt. He didn't care about being misunderstood by others, but his gaze toward Shi Ruan was full of hurt, "Ruan, you know that you're the only one in my heart."

Frightened by such a sappy confession in front of strangers, Shi Ruan stepped back several paces, "Stop right there, that's enough, please don't say such nauseating things."

Xiao Feiyu's curious gaze shifted between Ji Chunsheng and Shi Ruan, wondering about the dynamic between these two.

She was even more curious about how they had seemed like such a sweet couple during New Year's, but somehow broke up just a month later.

Xiao Feiyu's phone rang - it was a call from the mother of the Xiao siblings.

"Feiyu, aren't you and your aunt done yet? Your sister-in-law says she's not feeling well, and I want to take her for a check-up. Please come back quickly."

Xiao Feiyu responded, "Alright, we'll be right back."

"Aunt, Mom wants us to return quickly."

"Okay." The Xiao Family's Aunt didn't dawdle and went to the counter to order a coffee.

She needed her daily morning coffee, but she had been in such a hurry this morning that she hadn't had time for it.

The Xiao Family's Aunt was quite particular about her coffee, only enjoying it from certain coffee shops.

She had brought her niece to this shop for her life-sustaining coffee, but upon entering, they had been so shocked by various revelations that she had forgotten to buy her coffee.

After buying the coffee and returning to the car, the Xiao Family's Aunt curiosly asked her niece, "Tell me, is there really something between your brother and Ji Chunsheng?"

Xiao Feiyu clutched her head in distress, having forgotten that her aunt was such a gossip.

After a full two minutes of consideration, she carefully replied, "Since I'm not directly involved, how would I know about such things?"

It was rare for Xiao Feiyu to give such a diplomatic, ambiguous response without taking any stance, yet the Xiao Family's Aunt drew her own conclusions, "You're right."

Xiao Feiyu thought, I barely said anything, how am I right?

Perhaps her aunt had realized this had nothing to do with her and decided to torment someone else instead?

The Xiao Family's Aunt hadn't started the car yet, appearing deep in thought while occasionally sipping her coffee.

Just as Xiao Feiyu was urging her to start driving to the hospital, she put down her coffee and exclaimed with sudden realization, "You may not be directly involved, but that Shi girl is! She must have discovered something, that's why she said those things."

Xiao Feiyu forced a laugh, "Aunt, who knew you were such a genius?"

The Xiao Family's Aunt proudly tossed her hair, "Oh, just average, third best in the world."

Xiao Feiyu thought: ...You didn't actually think I was complimenting you, did you?

She was mentally exhausted and didn't want to engage with her aunt's speculations, so she changed the subject, "Aunt, Mom will be calling again to hurry us up."

Her sister-in-law still held some authority over her, and finally, the car pulled away from the parking spot.

When the aunt and niece arrived, Xiao's Mother briefly scolded them before asking them to wait in the hospital room while she took her daughter-in-law downstairs for a check-up.

Her daughter-in-law had been married for some time now, and she had been gagging at the sight of rib soup earlier. Xiao's Mother suspected she might be pregnant.

Afraid of false hope, she hadn't mentioned it directly, only saying that her daughter-in-law had been tired lately and needed a check-up.

Du Xinyue didn't suspect anything and went along with Xiao's Mother's arrangements.

The pregnancy test was mixed in with various other health checks, and while some results had come back, many tests were still pending.

Xiao's Mother's phone buzzed with a text message, and Du Xinyue's eyes briefly caught the screen - the message was from a doctor.

After Xiao's Mother read the message, she asked curiously, "Mom, is everything alright?"
