Chapter 49: Anger at Scumbag

Then, he stood at the bathroom door with a serious expression. Not long after, Qiao An came out with the test paper.

Li Xiaoran walked forward and took the test paper. There were two bright red lines.

Li Xiaoran glanced at Qiao An with a melancholic look in his eyes. He was probably feeling a little depressed when he thought about Qiao An and Li Zecheng sleeping together.

“Qiao An, do you want this child?”

Qiao An’s eyes rolled almost imperceptibly, her long lashes lowered. She said nothing.

Father Qiao had a strong reaction. “You can’t have this child. Doctor Li, didn’t you say that my An An’s health isn’t suitable for having a child?”

Li Xiaoran comforted Father Qiao kindly, “Uncle, Qiao An’s health is important, but Qiao An’s preference has to be taken into consideration.”

Mr. Qiao looked at the dejected Qiao An. She was as thin as a swallow, as if she would fly away at any moment.

He did not dare to hurt her fragile heart.

Li Xiaoran looked at Qiao An and asked patiently, “An An, do you want this child?”

Qiao An’s gaze landed on the two bright red bars. Then, she looked at Li Xiaoran with a deep and unfathomable gaze. Looking at his beautiful face and gentle smile, she nodded.

She had no reason to abort this child.

This was the fruit of their love.

Perhaps fate was playing tricks on her, making them unable to be husband and wife in reality. But now that the heavens had given her a child, she had to choose to keep it.

Li Xiaoran started to talk non-stop again. “Qiao An, Li Zecheng’s genes are not an intangible cultural inheritance. They have to be passed down. The Li family is not an emperor’s family. You have to give birth to a great-grandson to inherit the throne. You have to consider carefully. If you decide to get pregnant, you will have to work very hard in the next ten months.”

Qiao An said stubbornly, “I love this child.”

Her determined gaze made Li Xiaoran momentarily dazed. He turned and entered the study, quickly taking out a book on the gestation process.

Li Xiaoran specially flipped to the most primitive state of the embryo and pointed at the needle-sized fertilized egg. He said to Qiao An, “Qiao An, he’s only a fertilized egg cell now. It’s the same as the cells you scrape off the upper wall of the mouth every day. There’s only a cell membrane, cell nucleus, and cell liquid.

It doesn’t have hands, feet, or heart yet. It can’t feel pain. At this stage, it’s in bed. You just have to take a few pills and it will wave goodbye to you. It’s like the cells you rinse away every day when you brush your teeth.”

But Qiao An said angrily, “Stop it. I won’t abort the child.”

Li Xiaoran’s eyes dimmed.

He had a vague feeling that Qiao An had deep feelings for the child.

Perhaps she still had feelings for Li Zecheng.

Qiao An had no feelings for Li Zecheng. She was racking her brains to think of only one thing, and that was to destroy Li Zecheng.

She roasted the surveillance video of Li Zecheng and Mother Qiao arguing in the hospital and used her sharp writing to post an article online—the young master of a wealthy family teamed up with his mistress to force his seriously ill mother-in-law to death.

The video was at Jinghang Hospital. Although the characters used aliases, Li Zecheng and Wei Xin’s faces were not censored.

Not long after, this article was spread all over the Internet.

The number of views of Mr. and Mrs. Qiao tearing Li Zecheng and Wei Xin apart increased. Soon, the number of comments approached 100,000.

The onlookers used their imagination to come up with all kinds of themes. “Before the cancer mother died, she sought justice for her daughter. The cheating scumbag and the mistress were beaten up in the street.”

“A rich second-generation heir abandoned his wife and son. His valiant father-in-law broke his legs.”

“Men don’t behave even in wheelchairs. Indeed, only by hanging on the wall can they behave.”

Qiao An deliberately used her alternate account to sway public opinion. “Isn’t this the CEO of the Li Corporation? The Li Corporation actually used such an immoral scumbag as an executive. It seems like there’s no one else.”

Qiao An had raised her personal grudge to the entire family. She wanted to force the Li family to completely abandon Li Zecheng.

The trending searches were overwhelming, almost causing public anger. This matter caused a butterfly effect, causing many shareholders of the Li Corporation to ask to withdraw their shares, and many partners to cancel their cooperation.

Li Zecheng became a rat on the streets of the Li Corporation and was condemned by the higher-ups.

Old Master Li was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.

He scolded Li Zecheng angrily, “Bastard, what did you do? Don’t you know how to hide in a dark corner? You fooled around with Wei Xin in the hospital and were caught by your mother-in-law. Even a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal can’t save you this time.”

In order to vent the anger of the people and save the Li Corporation’s precarious public image, Master specially issued a notice: Mother Qiao’s death has nothing to do with Li Zecheng. Otherwise, he would not be able to escape the law. However, he cheated on his wife and betrayed her marriage. His morals are tainted. In order to apologize to his mother-in-law, the Li family punished him by sending her to the funeral parlor. In addition, the Li Corporation canceled Li Zecheng’s position and shares.”

The Li family posted a photo of Li Zecheng kneeling to his mother-in-law.

Only then did the public opinion slowly stop.

From then on, Li Zecheng’s future was ruined. He lived like a stray dog every day.

He was devastated.

Third Madam racked her brains to pave the way for Li Zecheng’s comeback. She really thought of a good plan.

She said to Li Zecheng, “Qiao An is carrying your child. That’s the real eldest great-grandson of the Li family. According to tradition, the eldest great-grandson will be rewarded with 5% of the Li family’s shares. Didn’t your son’s shares fall into your hands? It’s up to you.”

Li Zecheng’s dead eyes flashed.

Third Madam egged him on. “Go and get Qiao An now. Keep her under your eye in case she accidentally aborts the child.”

Li Zecheng understood. That night, Qiao An’s phone kept ringing.

Qiao An glanced at the string of numbers on the phone screen and knew that it was Li Zecheng. She had no intention of answering.

However, Li Zecheng was unprecedentedly persistent and kept fighting.

Li Xiaoran came out of the bathroom. His hair was wet and he was wearing a white crystal bathrobe, making him look like a noble and elegant prince.

He looked at Qiao An in shock and asked, “Why aren’t you answering your phone?”

Qiao An said calmly, “It’s a scam call.” Other than lying to her, what else could Li Zecheng do?

Li Xiaoran picked up the phone and started bragging again. “I’ll help you answer it. I know swindlers the best. I guarantee that they won’t be able to escape.”

Li Xiaoran picked up the phone and heard Li Zecheng’s voice.

“An An, are you finally willing to answer my call? Where are you? I’ll bring you home, okay? You’re pregnant now, you can’t be too tired…”
