Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 671

In addition, she carefully studied the surrounding surveillance cameras, took note of where each one was located and understood the best blind spots. Apart from this, she also hid in the research lab and studied drug interactions for a few days. She needed tofind the most flawless method of attack.

...

During the past few days, Tangning's mood was restless. She constantly felt like someone was spying on her in the shadows, monitoring her every move.

Auntie Bai explained that it was because she was getting closer to childbirth, so it was natural to become highly sensitive to her surrounding environment. Tangning thought about Auntie Bai's explanation for a moment and felt it was quite reasonable

"Ever since Huo Jingjing's incident, your heart hasn't been stable for even a day. If there's something wrong, make sure to communicate it to Mr. Mo, don't keep it to yourself."

After listening to Auntie Bai, Tangning nodded her head and smiled, "I can talk to him about it, but...when a woman is pregnant, there are some feelings that a man would never understand."

"That's true," Auntie Bai nodded her head, "When I was pregnant with Xiao Xing, I often felt that I was unexplainably irritable. Xiao Xing's father couldn't understand how he had provoked me, so all he could do was stretch his arm in front of me and allow me to release my anger by biting him."

With the mention of Chen Xingyan's father, Tangning remembered that he had been missing since Chen Xingyan was very young. However, Bai Lihua had never mentioned him until now.

"Xingyan's father..."

"He went missing when he was an extra. At that time, Xiao Xing was only 6-years-old. Since then, he has never returned again. Let's not talk about him."

Tangning didn't like to probe into someone's matters persistently. Plus, she understood that this matter was Bai Lihua's weakness, so she decided to move away from the topic.

"Are you going to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow? What do you want to eat? I'll cook it for you."

"Everything you cook tastes good," Tangning reassured quickly.

However, Tangning had no idea that the checkup this time would result in a crisisbecause the person that had been stalking her was already prepared to strike.

...

Afternoon the next day. Mo Ting accompanied Tangning to her checkup and brought the bodyguards along as usual. After Bai Li Hua escorted them to the front door, she returned to the villa.

A moment later, the strong smell of smoke suddenly drifted from the garden, triggering the fire alarm and alerting the security. The security immediately searched for the cause and quickly knocked on the door of Tangning and Mo Ting's villa.

It took Auntie Bai a while to open the door. As soon as she saw the security, she looked at them confusedly, "What's wrong?"

"Madam, your garden is on fire. For your safety, could you please vacate the premises immediately?"

Bai Lihua paused for a moment. She was especially scared of fire, "In that case...wait for me as I lock the doors."

"Madam, please leave first. We have to assess the security risks of the villa," one of the members of security said as he pushed Bai Lihua to a colleague behind him.

Bai Lihua did not know how to react as the security dragged her away to a safe location. However, while the security were assessing the villa, a dark figure snuck in through the front door and hid in the grocery closet without making a sound.

Roughly half an hour later, the person hiding in the grocery closet heard the security talking to Bai Lihua, "Madam, sorry for the inconvenience. The fire is under control. Luckily, it did not spread, so you can return home now."

"Have you discovered the cause?" Bai Lihua asked. "Why was there a fire in our garden?"

"Don't worry, we will search for the cause in detail. As soon as we have an answer, we will let you know."

Bai Lihua nodded and did not ask any further. After returning to the villa, she calmed down a little and went back to preparing a rich and nutritious meal for Tangning as usual.
