It's unclear where the Alpha Guards got the decoys from in such a short time, but they managed to enter the community through various entrances, creating a time difference.
This immediately attracted the reporters' attention. As they rushed to one entrance, they found it was a decoy. When they hurried to another entrance, it turned out to be fake again.
During this time, the Alpha Guards drove discreetly through the community under the cover of darkness.
After the incident, Ming Yuqian was worried about Ming Yutong living alone and insisted on taking her home with him.
Once at home, Ming Yuqian called Ming Jingshan and his wife, as well as the older members of the Ming family, to inform them that Ming Yutong had been picked up.
After hanging up the phone, Ming Yuqian rubbed his eyes and said, "Fortunately, it's the weekend and they can't block you at the company. We can use this time to come up with a solution."
"Which media outlet first released this news?" Ming Yutong asked.
"We're investigating," Alpha Guard 4 replied.
"The Alpha Guards will be stationed around here tonight, so you can rest assured."
Ming Yutong nodded. Her brother continued, "The only people who know about this are our family—our parents, and our uncle and aunt. On the way to pick you up, I asked our uncle and aunt, and they didn't tell Ming Silian."
"Besides our family, no one else knows about this," Ming Yutong's brother said, frowning.
Ming Yutong hesitated, finding it hard to speak.
Seeing her reaction, her brother asked, "Sis, do you know something?"
"I told Jiang Lulian," Ming Yutong said uncertainly. She personally didn't believe Jiang Lulian would leak the information.
If he were going to leak it, he would have done so earlier. Why wait until now?
But she couldn't be entirely sure.
She remembered how Jiang Lulian's expression had darkened when he saw her with Fu Yinxiu.
It was possible that this had led to her information being exposed.
Yet Ming Yutong really didn't want to think badly of Jiang Lulian.
The reason she had told Jiang Lulian was because she trusted his character. She didn't believe that just because of Fu Yinxiu, he would do something so despicable.
Seeing her brother's disapproval, Ming Yutong explained, "He was genuinely pursuing me and wanted to marry me. But I know my own situation—I might never be able to have children. How could I not tell him clearly and burden him with such knowledge?"
She hadn't mentioned this to Jiang Lulian before because she knew at that time, he didn't have strong feelings for her—he simply saw her as a good marriage prospect.
She had always kept him at a distance and never agreed to be with him.
When it seemed there was no chance for her, he would have moved on without hesitation.
But later on, Jiang Lulian became serious about her.
Even if she couldn't reciprocate his feelings, she couldn't ignore his sincere emotions.
Because she trusted his sincerity, she believed he wouldn't use this matter to harm her.
"I told him clearly about my situation, and he made his decision. He's given up on me and is now involved with someone else. There's no reason for him to turn around and scheme against me now. It would be harmful to him as well. What would he gain from harming me without any benefit to himself?" Ming Yutong said.
"Maybe he felt jealous when he saw you with Fu Yinxiu again?" Ming Yutong's brother paced back and forth, irritably scratching his head.
At that moment, Ming Yutong's phone rang.
It was Little Jingshi calling.
Ming Yutong immediately answered the call, and seeing the time, she guessed that Little Jingshi had arrived home. She asked, "Have you reached home?"
"Yeah, just got here," Little Jingshi replied.
In the background, Ming Yutong could faintly hear Aunt Huo talking.
Ming Yutong felt relieved. "You stay home and be good. Things will be resolved soon, and I'll come to pick you up then. Don't worry about anything else."
"Okay." Little Jingshi obediently agreed, "You should go to bed early too! Dad has sent Alpha Guards 3 and 4 to handle it, so it will definitely be fine. Don't worry."
"Mm, I'm not worried. With you all here, I'm not afraid of anything." Ming Yutong couldn't help but smile.
It seemed that just talking to Little Jingshi made all her worries disappear.
After reminding Little Jingshi to sleep early, she ended the call.
Meanwhile, Alpha Guard 4 had received information, "It was E-Media that first released the news. Our people are investigating who leaked it to E-Media."
Ming Yutong nodded.
Only a few people knew about her fertility issues, so the circle of knowledge was very small.
She wanted to believe that her family wouldn't have leaked it, even if it were by accident.
In what kind of situation could someone accidentally leak such information?
Usually, accidental leaks happen when people are overly relaxed, such as chatting freely or drinking too much, and let slip when their guard is down.
But how could a topic like her fertility issues even come up in conversation?
Ming Yutong found it hard to imagine.
Perhaps such a topic could come up, but unless the person had prior suspicions and deliberately set a trap for her family, leading them to reveal the information, how could they successfully extract it?
No matter what, she trusted her family.
Among her family members, there was only one person who was untrustworthy.
That was Ming Silian.
Compared to Jiang Lulian, she felt Ming Silian was more suspicious.
But Ming Yuqian had said that their uncle and aunt hadn't mentioned her issues to Ming Silian.
"Did you ask Uncle and Aunt if they've mentioned my situation recently? Not directly to Ming Silian, but in their own conversations?" Ming Yutong asked.
"Do you suspect—" Ming Yuqian was about to ask if she suspected Ming Jingshan and Fang Qian'an.
But realizing it didn't quite fit, he changed his question, "Ming Silian?"
"Compared to Jiang Lulian, I do suspect her more. To be honest, even though Jiang Lulian and I didn't end up together, I think we parted on relatively good terms and understood each other. Even if he's dissatisfied, it's unlikely he would engage in such self-destructive behavior."
Ming Yuqian snorted coldly, "He just got out of the hospital and eagerly got to know Nie Yalin. How can he still feel unfulfilled?"
Ming Yutong smiled helplessly.
Though she wasn't satisfied with Jiang Lulian, it was frustrating for her brother to be so upset about him seeking someone else.
Her sister's fertility issue didn't mean she couldn't have children. It could be managed with proper care!
Just look at the new person Jiang Lulian found—how could she compare to his sister?
What terrible taste!
