Chapter 354 Three Trials
Chapter 354 Three Trials
"Wang Ma, you should go back and rest first."
"Yes, Madam." Wang Ma quickly took off her apron and hurriedly left the main building for the servants' quarters at the back, afraid that if she lingered any longer, she would overhear more secrets.
After Wang Ma left, Yun's mother sat up straight, took Yunzhi's hand, and said anxiously, "No, Zhizhi, how could that child be your child? He looks four or five years old. Four or five years ago... you did live at school for a period of time after finishing your studies. Could it be that at that time, whose child was he? Was it William's little golden retriever or...?"
Mica was so anxious that she started talking nonsense.
"No." Yunzhi tried to explain, but Yunmu, who was lost in her own thoughts, couldn't hear anything else. She stood up and paced back and forth. "Could it be that senior from your university who always pursued you?"
"Wife, calm down, the timing is a bit off." Mr. Yun sighed softly, appearing much calmer than Mrs. Yun.
At this point, Yun's father realized that there must be something else going on with this child, since the timing didn't match up.
Even if Yunzhi really did take advantage of a time gap four or five years ago and gave birth to a child behind their backs, ten months of pregnancy plus recuperation would take at least a year. Yunzhi did stay at school for a period of time five years ago, but that was only three months at most. In addition, Yunyun often went to see Yunzhi. If she was pregnant, it was impossible for her to hide it from Yunyun.
He took Yunmu's hand, but before he could speak, a casual voice came from outside the door, "What time doesn't match?"
Now the entire Yun family is here.
Yunzhi turned her head and saw her brother looking tired. She loosened her tie and walked towards the living room. In just a few days, her brother had become noticeably listless, and the dark circles under his eyes were impossible to hide.
He casually poured himself a glass of warm water, drank it all in one gulp, and turned to look at the three people who hadn't spoken. Only then did he notice that the atmosphere in the living room was a little strange. He looked around, his gaze lingering for two seconds on the food scattered all over the floor by the kitchen door. He asked, seemingly casually, "Where's Wang Ma? I rushed back especially to eat with you, but how come there's food all over the floor and Wang Ma is nowhere to be seen?"
"Brother, this is what happened..."
"What are you still eating for? You still have the mind to eat? Do you even know your sister has a child?" Yunmu's voice was trembling, as if it had been scalded by fire.
The baby? Yun Yun's gaze fell on Yun Zhi's flat stomach. Her first reaction was to check the time on her phone. "Today isn't April Fool's Day, Mom. What are you joking about?"
My sister has always been a well-behaved girl who never caused me any trouble. The only thing that bothered him was that she was taken away by that pig Cheng Shuyan after we returned to China. There was nothing else. Don't tell him that he was only busy for a little over ten days and his sister and Cheng Shuyan already had a child.
Don't be ridiculous. Yunzhi has the guts to get pregnant out of wedlock.
"Why don't you believe me? I've seen the child!" Yunmu said quickly, as if she wanted to bite her tongue. She couldn't wait to go up and bring KK down to show Yunyun.
Seeing her mother's expression, Yun Yun finally had to face the matter. "Zhizhi, you're pregnant? How many months along? Bring the CT scan over so I can see it. And what about Cheng Shuyan? You're pregnant, and he's the culprit who made you come back alone?"
Yun Yun's face grew uglier as she spoke, wishing she could drag Cheng Shuyan, who had gotten Yun Zhi pregnant, out right now and beat him up.
"No, it has nothing to do with Cheng Shuyan," Yunmu explained, after all, four or five years ago, Yunzhi didn't know Cheng Shuyan.
"It has nothing to do with Cheng Shuyan?" Yun Yun gasped, looking at his sister with a complicated expression. Yun Zhi saw surprise, doubt, joy, satisfaction and other expressions in his eyes.
"Zhizhi, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. You're still young, you shouldn't hang yourself on one tree. Anyway, you're still young, there's no rush to get married. Try a few more, maybe you'll find a man who satisfies you more than Cheng Shuyan." Yun Yun crossed his legs, casually lit a cigarette, and his words earned him a light slap on the shoulder from his mother.
"How could you, as the older brother, encourage your sister... Yun Yun, don't tell me you used to hang out with those shady friends like this back in Y country. I'm not worried about your sister now, I'm worried about what will happen when someone comes with a baby and calls me grandma." Just thinking about it made Yun's mother want to faint.
"Mom, I didn't fool around with anyone when I was in Y country. I was just worried that Zhizhi would get hurt. Cough cough, this isn't about me. Anyway, don't worry, I definitely don't have any illegitimate children outside. Zhizhi, by the way, whose child is in your belly?" Yun Yun felt a pang of heartache when she thought of her first love.
"Who said Zhizhi is pregnant?" Yunmu blurted out instinctively.
"Didn't you say that Zhizhi has a child? Could it be that she's not pregnant?" Yun Yun's face showed the same doubt as Yun's mother. The two looked at each other and finally realized that they were talking at cross purposes.
"Brother, Mom, Dad, it's not like that. KK isn't my biological child. I adopted him from the orphanage today. He's registered under my name and will be my child from now on. Mom, how could I suddenly have such a big child out of nowhere? And brother, I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just said. How could I go out and fool around with Shuyan behind his back?"
As Yunzhi spoke, her eyes couldn't help but dart upwards, her voice lowered to the lowest octave, "Brother, Shuyan is on the second floor, don't slander my reputation."
She was just glad that Cheng Shuyan and KK were upstairs playing and hadn't heard her brother's words, otherwise... Yunzhi blinked as she thought of this. Wait a minute, she was just pretending to be a couple with Cheng Shuyan in front of her parents, so why should she be afraid? Even if Cheng Shuyan caught her, so what?
When Yun Yun heard that Cheng Shuyan was on the second floor, she looked embarrassed for a moment. "Wait, who is KK? Why didn't you discuss adopting a child with us today? Is it something you can just adopt anytime?"
Yunmu realized that she had misunderstood her daughter. While relieved, Yunmu looked at Yunzhi with some worry.
“That’s right, Zhizhi. Children aren’t like kittens or puppies. You can’t just feed them, play with them for a while, and keep them alive. Besides, you’re not even married yet. Wouldn’t Xiaocheng mind if you suddenly adopted a child?”
"Mom, he doesn't mind. We'll adopt together. If he does mind, I won't marry him." Yunzhi snorted softly, her heart pounding uncontrollably as she said the word "marriage."
