Jing Shao is infertile, but his nanny is pregnant with his child.

Tang Wenlin and his wife were extremely anxious, like ants on a hot pan. Zhang Shuhua grabbed Tang Wenlin's arm, "Let's send someone over to check, just in case something happened over there."

Tang Wenlin beckoned to a young man in his twenties and whispered a few words in his ear.

The young man nodded and strode out.

Zhang Shuhua was filled with anxiety. "They're not going to cancel their visit, are they?"

Tang Wenlin frowned. "No way."

But thinking of the woman who suddenly appeared on the day of the engagement banquet, Tang Wenlin felt no confidence at all.

Zhang Shuhua's undershirt was already soaked with cold sweat, and she wanted to crane her neck three miles to see if Lin Changjian had arrived.

The groom was late in arriving, and relatives and friends began to gather together and whisper among themselves.

"What's going on? Is Tang Qingxue's in-laws planning to call off the engagement?"

"Who knows? I heard that Comrade Lin Changjian married Tang Qingxue to humiliate Comrade Zhou Yanchen. He's probably regretting it now. Her uncle is a regimental commander in the Air Force Headquarters, and he's her only nephew. She could have had a great girl. He probably pulled this stunt to prove that he's better than Zhou Yanchen!"

"What you're saying seems to make a lot of sense."

Tang Qingxue broke off her engagement with Zhou Yanchen and married Lin Changjian. But Lin Changjian didn't want to marry her at the last minute. Doesn't that prove that the woman Zhou Yanchen was so eager to marry tried every means to marry Lin Changjian, but Lin Changjian didn't even like her?

Someone suddenly lowered their voice, "You guys don't know yet, do you? Lin Changjian is keeping someone on the side. She even caused a scene at their engagement party. I don't think Lin Changjian will be coming today. Tang Wenlin and his wife are going to lose face big time."

The closer the auspicious time got, the more outrageous the comments from relatives and friends became, until finally they even said that Lin Changjian had abandoned Tang Qingxue and married another woman.

At first, everyone spoke in hushed tones, but later the courtyard became noisy and chaotic, and you could hear people talking but couldn't tell who was speaking.

Tang Qingxue, dressed in red, sat on the bed and looked at her parents who were pacing anxiously in front of her. She was so angry that she jumped up.

"Stop spinning around, go check if something happened to Changjian!"

Tang Wenlin pointed at her and loudly accused her, "At a time like this, you're still worried about him? You should worry about yourself!"

If this day passes, their family will become a laughing stock in the industry, and they will be dragged out and ridiculed from time to time. If this marriage doesn't happen, Tang Qingxue's reputation will be completely ruined.

Tang Qingxue's eyes were red with tears. "You all don't know how good Brother Changjian is!"

Tang Wenlin raised his hand to hit her, but Zhang Shuhua quickly stopped him.

What are you doing?!

"I'm going to beat her to death!" Tang Wenlin's face turned ashen with rage as he forcefully shook off Zhang Shuhua's hand. "It's all your fault for spoiling her!"

Zhang Shuhua was already simmering with anger, and these words only fueled her fury. "How have I spoiled her? Is the child only mine? If it weren't for your father's indulgence and insistence on her engagement to Zhou Yanchen, Qingyuan would be the one married to Zhou Yanchen now!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Qingxue looked at her mother, who had always doted on her, with the same gaze she would give a stranger.

"Mom, are you blaming me too?" Tang Qingxue felt extremely wronged, a knot of anger in her chest. "You also think I'm incompetent, unworthy of Zhou Yanchen, and inferior to my sister, right?!"

By the end, Tang Qingxue practically shouted it out.

Zhang Shuhua closed her eyes weakly. "Qingxue, that's not what Mom meant."

Tears streamed down Tang Qingxue's face. "Then what do you mean?"

Tang Qingyuan stepped forward to mediate: "Sister, how can you say that about Mom? She's the best person to you. How sad she must be if you talk to her like that."

Tang Qingxue immediately turned her anger towards Tang Qingyuan, "What are you pretending to be, you good person?! If you like Zhou Yanchen, just tell Grandpa! Who are you trying to fool with this act of being considerate of me? Grandpa betrothed me to Zhou Yanchen and you got angry, and now you want to marry him? You're the most hypocritical person in our family!"

Tang Qingyuan opened her mouth in anger, but ultimately said nothing.

She doesn't need to waste her time explaining to such an idiot.

That look humiliated Tang Qingxue. "So what if you look down on me? Do you think you're so great? If you're so great, why are you getting a divorce?!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Qingyuan nearly choked on her words. "If Grandpa hadn't betrothed you to Zhou Yanchen, I would have been the one marrying him! I wouldn't have been as blind as you to fall for a man who terrifies me!"

The last sentence struck a nerve with Tang Qingxue, who then grabbed Tang Qingyuan's hair and started tearing at her.

You can talk about her, but you can't talk about Brother Changjian!

Watching the two sisters fight, Tang Wenlin pinched his brow in exasperation and sat down listlessly on a chair, with no desire whatsoever to intervene.

He doesn't know how he raised his child to be like this.

Houses in this era weren't soundproof, and the argument between the group carried into the courtyard. People kept glancing over, and the smiles on their faces felt like countless slaps to his own.

At this moment, Zhang Shuhua also felt utterly defeated.

Her eldest daughter betrayed her mother to please the man she loved, and now her youngest daughter is saying the same thing about her.

She shouted, "Enough! Stop it, all of you!"

Tang Qingyuan pushed Tang Qingxue away, smoothed her hair, and said, "Today is your special day, I don't want to cause trouble for you. You'd better watch yourself!"

After saying that, Tang Qingyuan turned and ran out.

Seeing Tang Qingyuan rush out of the house, the onlookers outside made way for her.

Lu Yan glanced at her, a slight smile playing on her lips, and grabbed a melon seed from the table, popping it into her mouth.

It's fun.

Suddenly, the young man that Tang Wenlin had just sent out rushed over and burst into Tang Qingxue's room.

As soon as he entered the house, he shouted, "Third Uncle, something has happened to my son-in-law."

Upon hearing this, the relatives and friends in the courtyard immediately blocked the entrance, craning their necks to look inside.

Lu Yan slowed down a bit, having already taken all the good spots. Her fox-like eyes darted around and spotted the window next to her. She took a few steps forward, opened the window, and looked inside.

This angle is much better than the living room entrance.

Soon, other people who hadn't found good spots also gathered around.

Jin Aiyun was shocked.

What a good-natured but bad boy Lu is!

Zhou Nuannuan blinked; she wanted to go and see too.

She also wants to be an immoral person!

Zhou Yanchen was already used to it, and picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.

Zhu Jingru pushed up his glasses and looked Zhou Yanchen up and down, as if asking a question.

Is this the person you like?

Zhou Yanchen, seemingly unable to understand, glanced at Zhou Yanxing and ordered in a deep voice, "Go and follow him."
