The woman in red walked up behind Zhao Qin, who didn't even notice her as she continued to watch Su Ding massage Yueyue.
At this moment, she had a profound realization.
It was that Su Ding wasn't as incompetent as she had previously imagined. In critical moments, she could step forward and was very reliable, neither arrogant nor boastful, nor seeking credit.
Had I been wrong all along?
Xiao Ye liked her, and she liked Xiao Ye too. They had been through so much together, their feelings must be very deep.
As for the wedding incident, perhaps it was as Xiao Ye said, Su Ding had been framed. If not, Xiao Ye wouldn't have accepted her again.
Gradually, a hint of emotion appeared in Zhao Qin's gaze as she looked at Su Ding.
"Sister, is this your daughter-in-law? She's so capable..." the woman in red said softly to Zhao Qin, her voice gentle and filled with a smile.
When Zhao Qin heard Su Ding being praised, she felt a sense of pride as if it were her own. She glanced at the woman in red and nodded, "Yes, she is my daughter-in-law. She knows a lot of things."
Soon, Yueyue stopped crying in pain.
She was slowly helped to sit down, and a touch of color returned to her pale face. "Thank you, Su Ding, I feel much better."
"You're welcome. Don't be nervous. Let's take it one step at a time, or the baby in your belly won't be comfortable," Su Ding said with a slight smile, a thin layer of sweat breaking out on her.
Massaging required controlled force and precise pressure points. The massage had consumed some of her energy.
Fortunately, Yueyue was no longer in so much discomfort.
Huang Guifang rushed forward and clasped Su Ding's hand, thanking her repeatedly with emotion. "Dingding, Auntie really thanks you. Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, my Yueyue would have... Auntie... *sob* Auntie thanks you so much..."
She was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She had been so scared just moments ago.
If Yueyue had an accident, her unborn grandson would be gone. This was the grandson their whole family had been eagerly anticipating.
Fortunately, Su Ding knew how to massage here. It was all thanks to Su Ding.
"Auntie, you don't need to be so polite," Su Ding said with a faint smile, patting Huang Guifang's hand.
Huang Guifang immediately felt that all her previous prejudices against Su Ding had been completely wrong. She would have to persuade A Qin to get to know Su Ding again in the future.
Zhang Lan and Xiaoxiao by her side also looked at Su Ding with surprise.
Similarly, their impressions of Su Ding had changed. Facing the same hardship, she was indeed the most composed person among them.
In a team, having a calm and mentally strong person would invisibly provide psychological support and stability.
Now, they could only hope that the thugs wouldn't harm them.
They prayed for the police to discover their disappearance quickly and come to their rescue, as they were terrified of what might happen next.
Just then, footsteps were heard from outside, the lock was opened, and two burly men entered with guns.
One of the burly men had a face full of coarse flesh and a sinister smile. His lecherous gaze fell on Su Ding and the others. "Lao Liu, today we'll have a woman to play with again. It's your turn to pick."
The burly man called Lao Liu's eyes reflected excitement. Saliva dripped as he stepped forward.
"Tsk tsk, there's even a pregnant woman. I've never played with a pregnant woman before..."
Saying that, he lecherously approached Yueyue, who was on the ground. Yueyue's already recovered face suddenly turned deathly pale.
Huang Guifang quickly shielded her daughter-in-law and pleaded tearfully, "Please, don't hurt my daughter-in-law. Please..."
"Get lost, you fat woman!" The Lao Liu kicked Huang Guifang in the chest.
Huang Guifang cried out and fell backward, tears of pain streaming down her face. "Don't... don't touch Yueyue..."
