Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“It’s impossible,” Zhongyu Liuying immediately objected. “How could such a coincidence happen? She was said to be pregnant at this moment!”

“Fact is fact, isn’t it?” Ye Leng’an shrugged indifferently. “Just a moment ago, if you had really kicked her, it might have been a fatal accident. Then, you would have been the one responsible for killing your grandchild.”

With these words, Zhongyu Liuying’s expression darkened. When she looked at Ye Leng’an, her gaze turned icy. However, when her eyes fell on Zhong Yating, still unconscious on the ground with a wet face, her expression worsened.

“So what if she’s pregnant?” Huangfu Jingzhang intervened. “Even if Zhong Yating is truly pregnant, it doesn’t change what she’s done. Therefore, they must divorce. Our Huangfu family cannot tolerate such a daughter-in-law.”

“Huangfu Ruixiang, what’s your opinion on this?” Huangfu Ruiling directly questioned the involved party. “The person lying there now is your wife, carrying your child. She’s still unconscious. What are your thoughts?”

These questions overwhelmed Huangfu Ruixiang. He didn’t know how to respond.

Especially when he saw Zhong Yating still unconscious, a hint of struggle flickered in his eyes, uncertain of his thoughts.

“Ruixiang, what are you thinking?” Seeing Huangfu Ruixiang’s hesitation, Zhongyu Liuying couldn’t help but speak. “Do you still have any attachment to such a woman?”

“But, she…” Huangfu Ruixiang hesitated, a hint of struggle evident in his eyes. “She’s carrying my child…”

If he abandoned Zhong Yating now, wouldn’t that be too heartless?

“If you keep her, aren’t you worried that one day, if she feels provoked, she might plot against you and take your life?” Huangfu Jingzhang intervened calmly, unlike Zhongyu Liuying’s agitation. “Are you not afraid of keeping such a troublemaker by your side?”

Huangfu Ruixiang remained hesitant.

Huangfu Jingzhang wanted to continue, but Huangfu Ruiling interrupted.

His cold gaze swept over the others, and he said lightly, “This is Huangfu Ruixiang’s affair. As bystanders, don’t offer too much advice. Let him decide for himself. If he can’t even handle such a small matter, I wonder what else he’s capable of.”

This statement silenced Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying. They couldn’t interfere anymore, lest they admit Huangfu Ruixiang’s incompetence in resolving such a small matter.

At this moment, Huangfu Ruixiang struggled intensely. He couldn’t make a decision.

“Why don’t we send Zhong Yating back to her room and have a doctor check on her?”

Nangong Xiyu looked at Zhong Yating, lying ignored on the ground. She finally felt a tinge of pity. “Regardless of Ruixiang’s decision, the child in Zhong Yating’s womb is still of our Huangfu lineage. Moreover, she’s pregnant and knelt for so long just now. If something happens to her, it won’t sit well with everyone.”

Although she internally agreed with Zhongyu Liuying’s actions and wanted Huangfu Ruixiang to divorce Zhong Yating, she couldn’t ignore the fact that Zhong Yating was pregnant. If something happened to her, it wouldn’t be good.

“Let’s follow Second Aunt’s suggestion!” Huangfu Ruiling spoke lightly, arranging for Zhong Yating to be taken back to her room and calling for a doctor.

Originally, he had no intention of meddling in this matter.

The child in Zhong Yating’s womb belonged to Huangfu Ruixiang. Even the father didn’t care, as an outsider, he didn’t need to intervene.

However, when he felt his sleeve being tugged by someone beside him, he decided to speak.

Ye Leng’an sat beside Huangfu Ruiling as if nothing had happened, wearing a faint smile. But her thoughts were inscrutable.

With Huangfu Ruiling’s directive, Zhong Yating was quickly attended to.

The atmosphere in the living room didn’t improve without Zhong Yating.

Because, even at this point, the matter remained unresolved. At least, one party had fainted while the other hesitated.

Li Yiran looked at the hesitating Huangfu Ruixiang beside her with intense hatred.

All along, she knew Huangfu Ruixiang was indecisive. She had exploited this to conceive and give birth to a child. But her luck wasn’t good. Unable to rely on her son to elevate her status, she let Zhong Yating surpass her.

What she had once used, she now detested the most.

Because Zhong Yating was pregnant now, she saw Huangfu Ruixiang’s wavering, unsure if he would divorce her in the end.

If Huangfu Ruixiang decided against divorce, she would feel like a fool. She had planned so much, only to end up empty-handed.

Thinking of this, Li Yiran glanced toward Zhong Yating’s room, her eyes full of bitterness.

Now, all she could do was pray that Ye Leng’an’s words were merely casual and Zhong Yating wasn’t pregnant. Otherwise, she would become a complete laughingstock today.

Time passed swiftly but also slowly.

After a while, the doctor who had treated Zhong Yating emerged with a smile.

Upon entering the living room, the doctor greeted Huangfu Ruiling and said, “Master, I’ve examined Second Young Madam. She’s fine, but she was emotionally struck, which will slightly affect the fetus. Resting in bed for a week will improve her condition significantly.”

Upon hearing this, the crowd wasn’t surprised. Ye Leng’an had already disclosed Zhong Yating’s pregnancy.

Initially, some had doubts, but now, there were none.
