At this moment, Shangguan Xi, lying on the bed, slowly turned awake, "Yangyang."
"Sister Xiaoxi." Ni Yang held Shangguan Xi’s hand.
Shangguan Xi said, "Yangyang, this matter isn’t Old Wu Third’s fault, nor is it Dad’s... Don’t be angry with them..."
Hearing this, guilt darkened Wu Chenjun’s face even further.
He hadn’t expected Shangguan Xi to still be speaking up for him at this moment.
Wu Zhihao also felt somewhat surprised.
If it were another woman, she would probably have caused a huge scene by now, but Shangguan Xi still insisted they weren’t at fault.
The Wu Family hadn’t married the wrong daughter-in-law!
Shangguan Xi continued, "It was the Old Lady who abetted Cao Xiaomei to push me! They even wanted to use my womb to bear a child! Old Wu Third, if you don’t give me an explanation for this, then let’s get a divorce!"
As she said this, Shangguan Xi turned to Ni Yang, "Yangyang, will you support me?"
Ni Yang nodded, "Of course! My sister can’t endure this injustice for no reason!"
Shangguan Xi’s reasonableness didn’t mean she was a pushover anyone could trample on. If the Old Lady Wu didn’t show any accountability, no matter how deep her feelings for Wu Chenjun ran, she would choose divorce!
Wu Zhihao stepped forward and said, "Xiaoxi, don’t worry! Our Wu Family will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!"
Wu Chenjun tightly held Shangguan Xi’s hand, "Xiaoxi, don’t worry, I will make sure you see a satisfactory outcome! Oh, by the way, I have some wonderful news to share with you."
"What wonderful news?" Shangguan Xi asked, confused.
Wu Chenjun said, "You’re pregnant! And with twins! We’re going to be parents!"
"Really?" Shangguan Xi stared at Wu Chenjun in astonishment.
"Really!" Wu Chenjun nodded.
"That’s amazing!" Shangguan Xi, who hadn’t cried earlier while angry, nor while her stomach hurt, now couldn’t hold back her tears.
Children.
She had children now.
Shangguan Xi placed her hand on her lower abdomen. Though it was still flat now, a few months later, it would begin to swell.
Ni Yang felt surprised as well, marveling at how strong genetics were—it turned out Shangguan Xi’s pregnancy had resulted in twins.
