News about Jiang Mei Ling were all over the internet and local televisions . Even so, she purposedly called Midori for a video chat .

The blus.h.i.+ng face of Mei with the baby in her arms came into view when Midori answered the call .

"Midoriiiii! Look! My baby is so cute!" She focused the camera on the baby's face .

Midori chuckled . She had a wide smile . "She looks like Shaoting though!"

"You traitor!" Mei pouted . "How could you do this to me?! She's my baby girl! She definitely looks like me!" She jokingly complained .

Midori laughed heartily .

"So, when are you gonna visit?"

Midori's smile stiffened . "Mei, is there another person in the room?"

Mei looked around to be sure . "Nuh-uh . . . just me and the baby . What's up?" She knew the change in Midori's tone signals a secret about to be revealed .

"I'm pregnant!" Midori's face lit up to a bright smile .

"For real?! Oh my G.o.d!" Mei was literally jumping in joy, waking her baby up .

The sound of the baby crying affected Midori as the whirpool of hormones circulate through her system . She would soon have one for herself .

Mei stopped laughing as she pacified the baby into sleep . Then she placed the baby in the crib and went into the hallway to continue their video call .

"Hey, does Aunty know?"

Midori giggled . "Yes . "

Mei gasped . "How come ZFC had yet to announce that their CEO had become sas.h.i.+mi?"

Midori laughed . "If my father wasn't there when we told her, he would've been swimming with the fishes right now . "

Mei had a hearty laugh . She took a deep breath before asking, "So, how did your husband react when he heard the news? My Shao froze like a statue when he found out I was pregnant . " She chuckled .

Midori giggled . "He was crying at the doctor's clinic . Actually, I was crying too . "

"Why did you go straight to the doctor? Didn't you buy a test kit first?"

"Have you heard of HP Inc . ?"

"Yeah . . . they were exposed of marketing poor quality test . . . oh . . . "

Midori chuckled . "Dan was so furious when we had inconclusive result with their kit . . . he handled them in a day . "

"Tsk tsk tsk . . . the indifferent CEO could really lose his cool when it comes to you . "

"Well, he was certain he could knock me up . " Midori chuckled .

Mei laughed, then paused, after realizing something . "If you're pregnant, why are you still staying in City T? Why didn't your husband take you back here?"

Midori's face turned serious . "It's for my protection and that of the baby . With his fake engagement, things are a bit complicated . At least, my mom's here . "

"Oh, right . It's Aunty Aoi's turf . No one will actually lay his hand on you as long as you're there . Hmmm . . . but it's a pity . You can't torture him . " Mei laughed .

"What?!" Midori was laughing with her .

Jiang Mei Ling never laughed like this in public because of her image as an actress . However, when it is between her and her best gal, her laughter is in full blast that it was contagious .

Mei wiped a tear from the corner of her eye . Her face was beet-red from laughing . "When I was pregnant, Shao turned into a slave attending to my every whim . It was satisfying!" She was laughing again .

When Midori saw the man behind her bestfriend, she pursed her lips to stop her laughter .

"Who turned into a slave?" the smooth voice of Lu Shaoting drifted into Mei's ears .

She gasped, then turned around to kiss him . "Shao!" She had a bright smile and she looked like a puppy wagging its tail when its owner had just come home .

"Hi, Shaoting!" Midori waved her hand to the camera .

Lu Shaoting gently smiled and nodded silently to greet back .

Mei hooked her arm in his . "Shao, Midori's pregnant!" Her excited voice had a squeal tail .

"Oh, congratulations . "

"Thanks . Did Dan not tell you anything?"

Shaoting snickered . "If your husband even ask me out for a drink, it will already be a miracle . "

At Midori's end, a servant called from her door .

"Oh, I gotta go now . "

"Alright . Take care!" Mei waved goodbye and even sent flying kisses before ending the call .

The servant led Midori to one of the sitting rooms . As the door opened, her eyes widened in disbelief .

"Vanessa?"
