Chapter 279: Is she really pregnant?
“Lingche is just too busy with work. Have you not seen how indifferent he is even to his own mother? I already told you, his personality is such that he isn’t chatty and does not know how to show his affection. Don’t take it to heart, instead, rest well.”
“But…”
Lan Yuyi lay on Madam Lu and began crying: “But Aunt Yao, today Qiao Yin called me a mistress again, saying my baby is born out-of-wedlock.”
Madam Lu looked distressed: “Qiao Yin, that little bitch, she should drop dead for spreading such nasty rumors!”
“I’ve tolerated her accusations, but I can’t let my child tarnish his reputation as an illegitimate child!”
“You know clearer than anyone whose child this is. I can’t let my child be labeled as an illegitimate child, how would that be fair to Sheng Qing?”
“Aunt Yao, when will Lingche marry me? I really can’t take it anymore; otherwise, I would feel like I’m failing my child.”
“Aunt Yao, please, please persuade Lingche to divorce Qiao Yin!”
Lan Yuyi sobbed uncontrollably.
Her heart was truly gripped with fear.
The news of Qiao Yin’s pregnancy was unsure. But what if it’s true? What would she do?
Lingche would probably be even less likely to get a divorce then!
Her dream of marrying into a rich family would be shattered!
“Alright, alright, stop crying, I promise you, I will ask Lingche to marry you as soon as possible. No matter how much divorce compensation Qiao Yin asks for, I will agree and make sure she signs the divorce papers soon!”
“Really?”
“Yes!”
Madam Lu comforted her, fearing that her heavy sobs might affect her unborn child: “Also, I have found a way to make Qiao Yin divorce. So give me a few more days.”
“What way?”
“You don’t need to know. The only thing you need to know is that you will be the future daughter-in-law of the Lu Family, carrying Lu Family’s heir in your belly, the sole heir, and no one else!”
Lan Yuyi finally stopped crying. She lay back down on the bed, overwhelmed by emotion: “Thank you, Aunt Yao. Thanks to your care, otherwise I wouldn’t know how to carry on.”
“It is my duty, in the future, don’t talk about wanting to live or die.”
Madam Lu gently stroked her protruding belly, her eyes red with emotion:
“You carry Sheng Qing’s child. Of course, I need to take good care of you and my grandson. But, Yuyi tell me, why did you really went to see Qiao Yin today?”
Lan Yuyi hesitated: “That…”
“I know you aren’t reckless and that you cherish the child in your belly. You dismissed the bodyguard Lingche assigned to you and risked seeing Qiao Yin. There must be an important reason, right?”
Lan looked at Wen Bilan, seeing her nod, she finally said, “Aunt Yao, Qiao Yin’s cousin told me that Qiao Yin is pregnant. Out of desperation, I went to confirm the news.”
Madam Lu’s heart sank: “You know about Qiao Yin’s pregnancy.”
Lan Yuyi was shocked:” Aunt Yao, is she really pregnant? Did you know about it too?”
Madam Lu nodded: “I knew you would not sit still after hearing such news. So I planned to hide it from you. But you found out about it even before me.”
Lan Yuyi was anxious: “Aunt Yao, where did you get your news? Is it reliable?”
“Qiao Haidong is the one who told me.”
“Is Qiao Haidong’s news reliable?”
“It should be, why?”
“Today when I went to the hospital to find Qiao Yin, she said she isn’t pregnant! She said she was in the obstetrics and gynecology ward because of a naming mix-up by the doctor. She just had low blood sugar and passed out, which was why she was sent to the hospital..”
