Jiang Yuzhu's heart raced but she forced herself to maintain an appearance of calmness.
She knew very well that right now Chen Ting needed a voice of reason, not more emotions.
"Tingting, take a deep breath, did you perhaps mistake something?" Jiang Yuzhu softly comforted, trying to help Chen Ting control her emotions.
Chen Ting sniffled on the other end of the phone, trying her best to keep her voice steady.
"I... I wanted to surprise him by having lunch with him at the hospital. I saw him in the hospital garden, sitting very close to a woman in professional attire who looked very pretty. They... they were sitting together, laughing and talking."
Jiang Yuzhu was taken aback for a second.
A whirlwind of possibilities spun in her head.
"Tingting, could that woman possibly be Zerong's distant relative? Maybe someone you've never met before."
Jiang Yuzhu's voice was soft, attempting to keep her worries from seeping into her tone.
