Chen Lihua picked up her laptop and connected her phone to it. So within the next few minutes, the video call was connected.

"Ah!!! Lihua! We missed you!." The girls shrieked when they saw her smiling face.

​​

Chen Lihua blushed ☺️ as she replied, " I missed you all as well."

It's been almost a year since they last saw Chen Lihua. After her wedding, they all went back to their various countries and rarely did a video call.

The last time they spoke through a video call, was a month or two after her wedding.

Now seeing her after a long time, they were very excited.

"Lily, you are looking more beautiful, I trust Longwei has been taking good care of you." Kendall (model) teased.

"Yeah, we can see how rosy her cheeks are today!." Angel commented, and the others laughed out loud.

"How have you been?." Caro (Married one) asked.

"I've been well." Chen Lihua replied with a proud look on her face.

"Yeah, we can see that, your body says it all." Jennifer (the black American) replied.

"You look like you're still on the bed, are you alone, beauty Queen?." Gigi asked.

Chen Lihua chuckled softly as she replied, "Yes."

"Please show us around, we need to see what our beauty queen has been up to." Caro requested.

"No... No." Chen Lihua rejected as a smirk played on her lips.

"Please!!!." The girls pleaded in a loud tone.

"Alright... Alright. But first, you have to hold on because I need to pee. I've been holding it for a long time now." Chen Lihua said to them and they gave her a few minutes off.

"Just be quick, and make sure you're not running away." Jennifer reminded in a loud tone as they all watched Chen Lihua walk away hurriedly.

"Who else noticed our beauty Queen seemed to have put on some weight?." Caro asked.

"I did..." Angel said raising her hands before the others raised their voices as well, they all agreed with what Caro said.

"Maybe she's being overfed," Gigi said as she laughed out loud, and the others joined her as well.

Just then, they heard a deep male voice call out to Chen Lihua, as they could all hear a baby's voice, crying.

"Sweetheart where are you? I think the baby is hungry." Liu Longwei said as he walked into the room with the crying baby in his arms.

The girls at the other end of the world glanced at themselves in confusion.

They were truly very confused.

"Is that not Lihua's husband calling out to her?." Angel asked with confusion written all over her face.

The others looked confused as well as Gigi replied, "I think so. It's been a long since I heard his voice, so I'm not sure. But since he is inside Lily's room, then I'm sure he is the one."

Liu Longwei was not aware that Chen Lihua was on a video call, and he also couldn't hear her friends speak because an earpiece was connected to the laptop.

"But what about the baby? Does Lihua have a child?." Jennifer asked as she gave each of them a glance.

There was silence for some seconds before Kendall spoke up, "I don't think so, Lily would have mentioned about her pregnancy if there was anything like that, I mean, why would she hide something like that for such a long time.

"Wei, your mum seems to be in the bathroom." Liu Longwei said as he tried to pacify his crying child.

This was a new revelation to the girls.

'Did he just call Lihua the mother of the crying child?.' This was the thought that was going through their mind.

Just then, Chen Lihua came out from the bathroom. "Oh, my baby!." She said as she hurriedly walked towards Liu Longwei.

Liu Longwei handed the child over to her as he said, "He has been crying for a while, I think he is hungry and needs to have his diaper changed."

"Okay. Baby, mum is sorry." Chen Lihua said as she carried the child and went to sit on the sofa.

Just as she was rocking her child, she just remembered that her laptop was turned on and that she was on a video call with her friends before she entered the bathroom.

So, she slowly looked up at her laptop screen to see her friends staring at her in shock as they mumbled inaudible words, which was because the earpiece was still plugged in.

"Darling, I can feel that I'm in trouble, please hold him." Chen Lihua said as she handed the child back to Liu Longwei.

"Why are you in trouble, what happened?." Liu Longwei asked worriedly as he took the crying child in his arms.

"Give me a sec." Chen Lihua said as she went back to the couch. She unplugged the earpiece, and she could hear her friend's screams.

Even her crying son stopped as he listened for where the noise was coming from.

"Don't shout, I have a child here. I will call you back in about ten to fifteen minutes, I need to feed him." Chen Lihua said as she disconnected the call despite the random questions that were being thrown at her from them.

"Were you on a call just now?." Liu Longwei asked in surprise as he handed the child back to her.

Chen Lihua took the child and laid him on his cot as she began to undress him. Seeing that the child was about to start crying, Chen Lihua started singing for him, and he became calm as well.

Seeing the situation, Liu Longwei turned on the baby music through the blue fancy Bluetooth speaker.

With the music turned on, Chen Lihua didn't have to sing anymore, so she changed her son's diaper as she replied to Liu Longwei's question.

"Actually, I was on a video call with Caro and the great of the girls before going on a bathroom break. And I never told them I was pregnant, or that I gave birth. Now, I'm sure they've all found out my little secret, so I'm in trouble, cause I don't know how to start explaining to them my reason for keeping all these from them. I just hope they will understand me."

"Oh My God! Sweetheart, I'm so sorry, I didn't know you were on a call, and I came barging in with the baby, I'm so sorry." Liu Longwei apologized.
