Chapter 4: I am your real child

The atmosphere abruptly chilled, and Ye Xi stared at the pregnancy report for a long time without saying a word.

She endured the excruciating pain in her heart, looking at Feng Qing and Ye Kuiyun expressionlessly.

This couple was clearly in the know.

Feng Qing stood up and came over to Ye Xi, saying, "Ye Xi, although your sister has been willful, everything has already come to this point, and it's too late to say anything now, so why not..."

Ye Xi's face was full of mockery, "Why not what?"

"Why not you just divorce Song Musen, after all, the person he likes is Susu... and besides, they already have a child together. They can't let Susu follow him without any proper status, right?"

Ye Xi laughed bitterly in rage, "And what about me?"

Feng Qing and Ye Kuiyun both kept their heads down, silent.

"Do you even realize? I am your biological child! When have you ever thought about me?"

"Mom, maybe I should just get an abortion…"

Ye Susu, as if even more aggrieved than her, began to cry in Feng Qing's arms.

Feng Qing comforted her with heartache, "How could that be possible? You're carrying the Song Family's child, Song Musen wouldn't agree if he knew."

Ye Susu looked at her pitifully, "Sister, Brother-in-law doesn't even like you, what's the point of clinging to him? Can't we just part on good terms?"

"Exactly, you've been married to Song Musen for two years now, and you still haven't been able to conceive. Now that your sister is pregnant and they are deeply in love..."

Ye Kui'an on the side joined in, trying to persuade her as well.

"In your dreams!" Ye Xi picked up her handbag and coldly said, "I'll divorce, but have him come and tell me himself!"

With those words, she didn't look back at them again and stormed out the door.

...

Leaving the Ye Family's house drained Ye Xi of all her strength.

She was so numb that she couldn't even cry.

Her phone wouldn't stop ringing incessantly, but it was an unfamiliar number she didn't recognize.

Ye Xi had no desire to answer.

...

In the grand living room that resembled a splendid palace.

Lu Lingxiao stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, having called this woman named Ye Xi three times in a row.

Unfortunately, she hadn't picked up.

The butler approached him and said, "Sir, the Sun Family has sent someone over."

Lu Lingxiao's eyes slightly lifted as he passed his phone to his assistant, saying, "Let them in."

After that, he walked over and sat down on the sofa.

Tang Xiuzhu, Sun Sining's mother, came to Lu Lingxiao trembling, cautiously calling out, "Son-in-law..."

Lu Lingxiao's eyes slightly frowned, offering no response.

He sat back with his legs crossed on the sofa, scrutinizing the woman before him.

The Sun Family was once also a powerful and prestigious clan, but due to investment failures in the past two years, they had fallen on hard times.

Because the two families had always planned an arranged marriage, the Lu Family still provided some care for the Sun Family.

But no one expected that a car accident would turn Sun Sining, the future bride, into a vegetative state.

Seeing the arranged marriage was about to fail, Tang Xiuzhu had resorted to this desperate measure.

She had planned to wait until ten months passed, the child was born, to get a DNA report with Lu Lingxiao and the baby, and the Lu Family would have no choice but to acknowledge the child.

However, Lu Lingxiao had discovered her plan beforehand.

"You're quite daring, but you know what I hate the most is being fooled by others."

There wasn't a hint of anger in Lu Lingxiao's voice, but it was chilling to the bone.

Tang Xiuzhu's knees nearly gave out, and she almost knelt down.

She stammered, "I know I was wrong, I won't dare again. It was only because Sining always talked about wanting to have a child with you that I had this thought… I really know I was wrong, son-in-law, please spare me this once."

Lu Lingxiao laughed, "Son-in-law? And you think you deserve to call me that?"
