"Doctor, I interfered in someone else's marriage and had a child with another man behind my boyfriend's back. Isn't that very immoral?"

Rong Zheng is a psychologist, and today it was her turn to conduct an online consultation. This was the first question her client had asked.

Mistress, infidelity, illegitimate child.

This identity, this sense of immorality...

No wonder online anonymous consultations are so popular.

Rong Zheng typed on the computer in a businesslike manner: "Would it be convenient for you to tell me your details?"

"Our two families are old friends. We were childhood sweethearts and a perfect match. Both our elders were happy for us. But when we were about to get engaged, he fell in love with someone else and even forced me to go abroad to please that woman."

Rong Zheng sighed.

The green plum couldn't withstand the sudden arrival of the cooked duck; it flew away.

This is unacceptable to anyone; no wonder he developed psychological problems.

She typed: "Go on, I'm listening."

A qualified psychologist must first and foremost be the best listener.

"I'm not a really despicable person. After I went abroad, I found a boyfriend to forget him. But on the day I officially announced our relationship, he came to find me behind his wife's back, and we got together."

"I know I shouldn't, but I couldn't resist him. Soon I got pregnant, and I gave birth to the child behind my boyfriend's back."

"I offered him a formal title back then, but he didn't want it. Now, I can't break up with my boyfriend for him."

"Doctor, do you know? When I was giving birth, his wife was also about to give birth, but he chose to stay by my side. Don't you think he loves me very much?"

Knowing she was a mistress, she even had a child with him. She was having an affair with a married man while refusing to break up with her boyfriend. What kind of thinking is this? It's absolutely outrageous!

Rong Zheng even wondered if this could actually happen in reality.

Compared to others, she is truly happy.

Her husband, Lu Peichuan, also had a childhood sweetheart named Su Qingya.

After learning about their relationship, Su Qingya tried to break them up quite a bit, which eventually angered Lu Peichuan, leading to her being sent abroad.

After that, she and Lu Peichuan lived a warm and happy life. Now she is more than eight months pregnant and will give birth in a month.

Even though she was overweight and her face wasn't as pretty as before, Lu Peichuan was still the same as when they were deeply in love. He would get up in the middle of the night to buy her a late-night snack just because of her words.

Her friends all say that Lu Peichuan spoils her so much, and she is the happiest woman in the world.

The message notification pulled Rong Zheng back to reality.

"He is of noble status, yet he personally changed our son's diapers, and bought him an education fund worth ten million as soon as our son was born."

"When my son and I returned to China this time, he personally picked us up, bought us a big villa, and arranged for a dedicated butler and servants to take care of us, afraid that we would suffer the slightest grievance."

Knowing it's a third party and acting like it's a third party with pride and swagger, this person's mentality is twisted.

Rong Zheng was thinking about how to give her psychological counseling when the other party sent another message.

"Doctor, you must be very capable to be a psychologist. I have a question for you: if your husband cheated on you and had a child with someone else, would you get a divorce?"

Rong Zheng was a little angry; this person was too rude.

But then she thought, the other person has psychological problems, why should she bother arguing with a patient?

She thought for a moment and typed on the keyboard: "Relationships are a two-way street. One-sided betrayal has already broken the balance. People shouldn't cling to a relationship without sincerity."

"Doctor, you're absolutely right. All wives should be as sensible as you."

The other person replied with that message and then went offline.

Rong Zheng was speechless; this person must have some serious illness!

If this weren't her job, she would definitely post something on social media to remind that unfortunate wife.

But now, she can only uphold medical ethics and keep all of this a secret.

Suddenly the phone on the table rang.

As soon as Rong Zheng picked up her phone and answered the call, her best friend Luo Qinghe's voice came through, "Zhengzheng, I saw Su Qingya back in the country, and she was holding a child!"

Rong Zheng's heart skipped a beat, and her gaze instinctively fell on the gray avatar on the computer screen that had already gone offline.

"Zhengzheng, can you hear me?"

Rong Zheng snapped out of her reverie, shaking her head. What was she thinking? Lu Peichuan loved her so much; there was no way he would cheat on her or have an illegitimate child.

"I heard her. So what if she goes back to China? What does it have to do with me?"

"What do you mean it's okay? What if she tries to scheme against you again? Have you forgotten why she was sent abroad?"

How could Rong Zheng possibly forget?

In an attempt to sabotage her marriage to Lu Peichuan, Su Qingya drugged her on her wedding day, hoping to have another man defile her.

However, Lu Peichuan discovered it in time, and in his anger, he tightly gripped Su Qingya's neck.

That was the first time Rong Zheng had seen Lu Peichuan so angry. His eyes were bloodshot, and the veins on his forehead and neck were bulging. A fierce and murderous aura raged in his eyes.

If Lu's mother hadn't arrived in time to pull them apart, Lu Peichuan might have really strangled Su Qingya to death.

Afterwards, Lu Peichuan forcibly sent Su Qingya abroad and was willing to pay a high penalty for breach of contract in order to sever all cooperation with the Su family, which caused a great sensation in Jiangcheng at the time.

So much so that a saying still circulates in the industry: Never mess with Mrs. Lu, no matter who you are, Mr. Lu's anger is too much to handle.

"Didn't you say she already has a child? That means she's in a new relationship, so why is she still plotting against me?"

"That's true. Besides, Lu Peichuan loves you so much that even if she has some ulterior motives, he won't let her succeed."

Rong Zheng was about to say something when the call suddenly ended.

Are you busy with something?

Just then, a new customer came in online, and Rong Zheng continued to see patients.

At five o'clock, Rong Zheng turned off her computer and left work.

In fact, Lu Peichuan had already asked her to take leave and stay home to prepare for childbirth, but she was a key medical staff member in the Department of Psychiatry and the dean hoped that she would mentor the new interns.

She didn't want to stay at home doing nothing, so she planned to follow the national standard and start her maternity leave half a month before her due date.

Rong Zheng walked out of the hospital, patting her round belly, and immediately saw Lu Peichuan standing by the car, making a phone call.

The man wore a custom-made silver-white suit, with a tall and slender figure and deep, smooth lines in his profile.

This scene reminded Rong Zheng of three years ago.

At that time, she was still pursuing her doctorate, and Lu Peichuan had just taken over the Lu Group. He was waiting for her by the car in a suit, and then he knelt down on one knee with a ring in his hand to propose to her.

The Lu family strongly opposed the two being together because she came from an ordinary family, while the Lu family was the richest family in Jiangcheng, and their statuses were worlds apart.

She wisely refused.

What truly made her decide to marry Lu Peichuan was an incident that happened that winter night.

That night, the wind was biting cold and it was pouring rain outside. She was huddled in her blankets in the hospital dormitory chatting with Lu Peichuan when she casually sent a message saying she wanted to eat a crispy and hot fried whole chicken.

Lu Peichuan replied: Wait a moment.

She thought he was busy, but unexpectedly, half an hour later, he called and asked her to come downstairs.

When she came downstairs, she saw Lu Peichuan, whose clothes were mostly soaked, take out a sealed package of fried whole chicken from his pocket and hand it to her with a loving smile, "The fried whole chicken you wanted to eat."

When she received it, it was still very hot. Feeling sorry for him, she lifted his clothes and saw that his fair chest was burned red.

At that moment, with tears in her eyes, she called him foolish, but in her heart she made up her mind to marry him.

"What are you thinking about, so lost in thought?"

A familiar voice rang out.

Rong Zheng came to her senses and realized that Lu Peichuan had appeared in front of her at some point.

She shook her head. "It's nothing. Why are you picking me up today?"

Usually, her driver, Uncle Chen, picks her up from get off work.

"Today is May 20th, such a special day, of course I want to spend it with you. I've booked a table at Shui Mo Sheng Xiang, let's go."

After Lu Peichuan finished speaking, he took Rong Zheng's hand and walked towards the car, asking as they walked, "Are you tired? Was the child fussy today?"

Rong Zheng felt the warmth of the man's palm, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up. "I'm not tired. The baby has been kicking me more often lately."

Lu Peichuan's gentle gaze fell on Rong Zheng's belly. "Be good and stop bothering Mommy, or I'll spank you when you're born."

Rong Zheng glared at Lu Peichuan, "What kind of father are you? The child isn't even born yet and you're already thinking about hitting him."

The two chatted and laughed all the way to the car.

Lu Peichuan opened the passenger door.

Just as Rong Zheng was about to get into the car, a faint, sweet perfume scent wafted into her nostrils.

This taste...

I feel like I've smelled it somewhere before, but I can't quite place it right now.

Rong Zheng turned to look at the man who was helping her into the car. "Why does your car smell like a woman's perfume?"
