Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 82 The Fighter Among Scum

It turns out that women in love are often a little less sharp-witted; Du Lianshuang is an example, and Liao Jingyi is even more so.

Cui Chengye told her to take birth control pills, and she did; he told her not to tell her parents, and she didn't.

It can be said that they have been manipulated to the point of being completely obedient to him.

This is why tragedy ultimately occurred.

Cui Chengye was even greedier and more ruthless than his father. From the very beginning, he had no intention of letting Liao Jingyi get pregnant with his child. He didn't want her to play the same trick as his father, like the "three generations returning to the ancestral line" scheme. His plan was to make her unable to have children forever, so that she would be unaware and willingly raise his child.

Du Lianshuang: "!!!"

According to Cui Chengye's plan, after he started dating and had sex with Liao Jingyi, he consciously used contraception and made Liao Jingyi take birth control pills repeatedly.

It's important to know that all medications have side effects, and long-term use of birth control pills can have various impacts on the body, especially potentially causing premature ovarian failure.

In this way, contraception becomes infertility.

However, considering the current medical conditions and Liao Jingyi's family's financial resources, Cui Chengye secretly replaced her birth control pills with a more effective sterilization drug just in case.

Liao Jingyi suffered from irregular menstruation after taking this medication for a long time, and her body became visibly weak.

Yin Bailu did consider taking her for a check-up, but Liao Jingyi had already been manipulated into taking Cui Chengye's words as gospel and dared not let her parents know that she was secretly dating and having sex with someone and taking birth control pills for a long time. So she kept putting it off, and then she really... became infertile.

At this point, the plot naturally reached its biggest turning point: Cui Chengye met his true love, a woman as gentle and virtuous as his mother.

Du Lianshuang: "..."

She didn't know what to say anymore, afraid that if she opened her mouth she would just make herself angry.

To put it bluntly, Cui Chengye has a bit of a mother complex. Coupled with long-term self-brainwashing, he is full of resentment towards rich girls like Du Lianshuang, while feeling pity for dodder flowers who endure humiliation like his mother. This also led to him being completely smitten when he met his so-called true love later on.

He even said that Liao Jingyi was just lucky to have met him before Miss Fang, and that in his heart Miss Fang was his true wife, while Liao Jingyi was just a mistress who occupied the position of his nominal spouse.

Upon seeing this, Du Anrao had a look on his face resembling that of an "old man on the subway looking at his phone."

[I have to say, this logic is truly outrageous!]

Du Lianshuang and Cui Dongmei's situation is understandable, since one is in a de facto marriage and the other is in a real marriage. Moreover, Cui Dongmei married Cui Jueyan before Du Lianshuang, but they didn't register the marriage.

If we really have to argue about who the mistress is, both sides have a lot to say.

But Cui Chengye's situation is clearly one of marital infidelity, yet he can still be whitewashed like this. These scumbags' so-called "true love for their first wife" theory is truly unbeatable!
Du Lianshuang nodded in deep agreement. Thinking that what she had always considered a perfect marriage was actually seen by someone as a mistress's cunning attempt to destroy another person's family, she couldn't help but grind her teeth again.

But what Du Anrao said next made her realize that these scumbags were called scumbags precisely because they had no bottom line and were not worthy of being human.

After meeting and falling in love with Miss Fang, Cui Chengye soon had a child.

At this time, Liao Jingyi was also diagnosed with premature ovarian failure, meaning she might never be able to have children of her own. Liao Jingyi was devastated and fell seriously ill.

During this time, Cui Chengye stayed by their side the whole time, patiently comforting them and showering them with sweet words as if they were free, which made even those who were not optimistic about their relationship begin to waver.

Ironically, on the other side of the same hospital, Choi Seung-yeol's so-called true love was happily pregnant with their child.

Three or four years later, Cui Chengye felt that the time was right, so he asked someone around Liao Jingyi to casually mention that the two of them could adopt a child, encouraging Liao Jingyi to take the initiative to discuss the adoption with him.

And the child who was preordained to be adopted by them was naturally the one born to Cui Chengye's true love.

Liao Jingyi unknowingly took away her husband's illegitimate son with his mistress, raised him as her own son until he grew up, and left him all the inheritance her parents left her before she died, without ever knowing the truth!

Du Lianshuang: "!!!"

Mother Du: "!!!"

Du Anrao: "!!!"

[Aaaaaah, what a tragic person, what a ruthless scumbag, what a vicious book! Why call it "The Legend of the Cui Family"? Wouldn't "The Legend of the White-Eyed Wolf" be much clearer? My aunt and Miss Liao were truly unlucky to have encountered these two scumbags, father and son. They were completely drained, leaving not even a bone fragment. It's an absolute tragedy!]

Upon hearing this, Du Lianshuang could no longer contain her inner rage. She slammed her spoon on the table and shouted, "Yin Bailu!"

The poor Ms. Yin was immediately terrified and, upon realizing what had happened, wanted to hit her.

"What's wrong with you? Are you trying to scare me to death by yelling like that all of a sudden?"

"Let me ask you, if your husband secretly drugged you to sterilize you, and then secretly put his mistress's illegitimate child into an orphanage to lure you into adoption, what would you do?"

Yin Bailu was stunned, but quickly recovered and said in a sinister tone, "Of course I'll castrate him first. If he dares to make me sterilized, I'll make sure he has no descendants!"

Du Lianshuang was stunned by her decisiveness, but Du Anrao's eyes lit up slightly.

[Great idea! If we could really get Cui Chengye sterilized, it would definitely break their entire family's morale.]

It should be noted that after Du Lianshuang was tricked into being sent to a mental hospital by Cui Jueyan, he couldn't wait to change the surnames of the two children, under the guise of letting them recognize their ancestors.

Unfortunately, the twins were already sensible and reasonable at that time, and they had been raised by Du Lianshuang and Old Master Du. Their feelings for each other were much deeper than for Cui Jueyan. How could they possibly be willing to change their surnames for Cui Jueyan's selfish desires?

This infuriated Cui Jueyan. He had always regarded the two siblings as proof of his years of enduring humiliation and suffering. Because of their disobedience, he felt even more that the two children had been corrupted by Du Lianshuang. After all, they only had half of the Cui family's blood in their veins and were not pure enough.

He then sent the two, who had just come of age and were powerless to resist, abroad to fend for themselves, treating only his son, Cui Chengye, as his sole bloodline.

When Cui Chengye learned about this, he was happy that Cui Jueyan had finally become his father, but he also felt that he should learn a lesson from this and made up his mind not to let Liao Jingyi get pregnant, but to let another woman give birth to a son for him.

In this way, Liao Jingyi is neither his biological mother nor will the child have any deep feelings for her if he knows the truth from a young age.

Once someone dies, they can change their surname however they want.
