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

Chapter 83 is truly a sobering truth.

This shows that the father and son are the same kind of people.

No matter how much they profess their deep affection and forbearance, they cannot hide their selfishness, their contempt for women, and their false sense of superiority.

Unable to give up the abundant resources and comfortable life that they envy, they insist on having their surnames passed down. They want both and they are justified in doing so, which is shameless.

In this situation, if Cui Chengye, this "only son," has a problem and is unable to have another son to inherit the Cui surname, will the father and son both collapse and go crazy?
[After meticulously planning for half a lifetime, only to end up with nothing, anyone would go crazy, right? I just wonder, if it really comes to that, will Cui Jueyan die of anger, or will he quickly find a new life while he's still young? And will Cui Chengye be able to accept this outcome with a clear conscience, instead of becoming enemies with his father?]

Despite it being just a rather immature idea, Du Anrao became more and more excited the more he thought about it, wishing that some big shot would descend from the sky to deliver justice and let him have a piece of this exciting new gossip.

Du Lianshuang was equally excited. After learning Cui Jueyan's true colors, she had imagined countless ways to take revenge on him.

But after thinking it over, none of them were as gratifying as the result Du Anrao had just mentioned. How could it not be considered an unexpected surprise?
Upon further reflection, it turned out that these words were spoken by her best friend. Despite not knowing the truth, she was able to hit the nail on the head with just a few words. Is this what is meant by "the one involved is confused, while the bystander sees clearly"?

Thinking this, Du Lianshuang's gaze toward Yin Bailu became even more complicated.

Yin Bailu noticed and snorted coldly: "Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think what I did was extreme and cruel?"

"No, no, no, I think your idea is brilliant. I'm just a little surprised. You used to say that having children and being pregnant had a lot of problems and drawbacks, that it was hard and cumbersome during pregnancy, that childbirth was so painful, and that if you couldn't give birth naturally, you would have to cut your stomach and leave such a big scar that would be terribly ugly. I thought you didn't like having children, and that you and Yuqian only had Jingyi and didn't have any more."

Yin Bailu couldn't help but roll her eyes at her: "I really don't like having children. Who would like having children if they could? I suffered the most when I was giving birth to Jingyi, but Liao Yuqian, that bastard, got all the benefits. Even the first person the child calls after growing up is him."

Yin Bailu still felt indignant when she mentioned this, clearly resentful that her daughter had called her father first.

"But being unable to have children and not wanting to have children are two completely different things. Whether I want to have children or not is my own choice. Depriving me of my right to choose is an offense and oppression. Not to mention that forcing someone who is originally capable of having children to take medicine to sterilize them will certainly damage more than just that aspect of their physical health."

"You're trying to kill me, so why should I lay out the facts, reason with you, or have a sudden burst of saintly compassion and forgive and forget? I'm already being lenient by not killing you and turning you to ashes, leaving you with a whole corpse!"

[Papapapa——]

As soon as Yin Bailu finished speaking, Du Anrao couldn't help but applaud her in his heart.

[Auntie, you're so clear-headed! These scumbags should be dealt with ruthlessly, like autumn leaves being swept away. Mercy to the enemy is cruelty to one's own family!]

Thinking about it carefully, when Cui Chengye's son came of age, Liao Jingyi was only around forty years old. She hadn't had any accidents, just simple frailty, yet she passed away. It's hard to say that the medications Cui Chengye had given her before weren't a contributing factor.

Du Lianshuang shuddered violently, her face turning ashen.

Du Anrao was young and didn't know much about these medicines, so he could only guess. Du Lianshuang, on the other hand, knew them very well.

So-called birth control pills work by inhibiting ovulation, altering the uterine environment, and creating the illusion that the body is not suitable for conception, thereby achieving the effect of contraception.

Frequent use of these medications can cause the body to experience false sensations. Over time, this can impair the body's ability to distinguish between different states of being, leading to disruptions in various bodily functions.

It was not specified what kind of sterilization drug Cui Chengye gave Liao Jingyi, but no matter what it was, the effect would only be more severe than birth control pills. How could her body not have problems after taking it for many years?

Some things exist for a reason, and this is especially true for people.

The food that Cui Chengye fed Liao Jingyi not only destroyed her chances of becoming a mother, but also severely damaged her health, causing her to leave this world prematurely and die with resentment.

Ironically, the ghost that killed her is still alive and well in this world. Even after she died, it stepped on her ashes and ate the flesh and blood she left behind, living better than anyone else!

Du Lianshuang was so angry that her head was spinning and her vision went black.

Yin Bailu, the biological mother of the murdered victim, was completely unaware of this. After delivering her long and eloquent speech, she looked at Yin Bailu with suspicion.

"You're acting strange today, saying all sorts of nonsensical things. Could it be that your partner did something to wrong you?"

The moment he said that, the other three people in the room were stunned.

Du Anrao's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked as if he had just realized something.

[Yeah, I was just thinking about Liao Jingyi when my aunt brought up sterilization and drugging. Isn't that a bit too much of a coincidence?]

Du Lianshuang: "!!!"

Seeing the sharp glare from Du's mother, Du Lianshuang broke out in a cold sweat.

"What's so strange about it? I was just bored at the hospital these past few days, so I went online to browse the news. This morning I happened to see a news story about a rich woman who was cheated by her husband. After many years of marriage, she couldn't have children. When she went to the hospital for a checkup, they found out that the problem was with the woman. The two of them sought medical treatment everywhere, but they still couldn't conceive. In the end, they had no choice but to adopt a child from an orphanage."

Yin Bailu raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, "And then?"

"Then the child grew up, and the rich woman noticed that he looked more and more like her husband. At first, she thought it was because they had lived together for a long time and were bound to look alike. But as more and more people talked about it, the rich woman couldn't help but become suspicious, so she secretly had a paternity test done on the child and her husband. And guess what happened?"

"Is that child her husband's biological child?"

Du Lianshuang clapped her hands: "That's right! It turns out that her husband had another woman outside, and even had a child with her. In order for this child to go into the rich woman's house with him and enjoy a life of luxury, he not only used contraception but also drugged the rich woman to prevent her from having children, and then made her adopt his son, so that the rich woman could raise the child he had with his mistress."

"The poor rich woman felt guilty towards her husband when the doctor told her that she had a health problem and couldn't have children. She was moved to tears by a few words of comfort, only to find out in the end that her inability to have children was all that bastard's fault."
