Chapter 957: Schemes Stirring (1/2)
Chapter 957: Sche Qien cried out in alarhtly around herself Even though she was dressed in her nightwear, she couldn't help but feel as if she earing nothing
Zu An chuckled and replied, “Didn’t you let er, exclai, “Was that really what I et so upset” Zu An didn’t get any closer and instead sat down by the entrance He didn’t close the door behind him to make her feel more at ease He continued, “I only came to chat with you, or else there’ll always be sos that won’t ever be cleared up”
Seeing that he didn’t have any intentions of going further, Sang Qien gradually calmed down and asked, “Is it just your confusion over why I’ you to take responsibility?”
“Yes” That hat Zu An found the hardest to understand Even though this world was much more open-minded than ancient China, the purity of a wohter to experience so like that, the least of the consequences would be that her lifetime of happiness would be ruined;clan would be looked down on At that point, how could one pretend nothing happened?
Sang Qien’s chest quickly rose and fell She was clearly struggling with soh and said, “Alright, I’ll tell you the reason It’s becauseclan needs to continue our bloodline”
Zu An was speechless What the heck are you saying? He didn’t react even after a long ti Qien had a faint blush on her face However, since they were already at that point, she couldn't be too bothered any brother passed away too early, he didn’t leave behind any descendents Our Sang clan is at risk of having no successors My father decided that the best plan was to nant, and then ould tell the world it was big brother’s child But that way, there would be no blood relation to the Sang clan As such, ave birth to would be declared my sister-in-law’s posthumous child”
Zu An was really taken for a ride as he listened, his eyes wide I actually ended up encountering one of those TV drama situations myself? The key was that he hadn’t even lost out on that e of the other party
“That’s why you and your father…” Zu An began, but he was interrupted by an asha Qien before he could even finish
“I had no idea about this ht I had my acupoints sealed, and yet a rascal like you couldn't even tell anyone apart and went in without thinking of anything!” Sang Qien’s eyes were red She felt so hurt that tears began falling again
Zu An walked over and gave her his handkerchief Sang Qien was going to say ‘don’t touch me’, but when she sensed the pity in his eyes, she still silently took the handkerchief
“Why didn’t you tellQien was already slowly cal others, I never expected that I would be deceiving others with my own body”
There was another reason she hadn’t mentioned She had always been sos her father could think of, she are of as well She had known that with Zu An’s sharpness, he would realize everything soon Rather than letting that happen, shefrom the start as a favor
If her father talked about this e, all of it would also feel calculated But she, as the victiuilty conscience, he wouldn’t feel repulsed when he heard the explanation and she would instead receive his syh, as a hed and said, “In this kind of situation… I don’t really knohat to say either You’ve really been wronged” He wanted to say a lot of other things too, like ‘Why did you try to keep this to yourself?’ I’ to pay the price and help in any way… But he also knew that noasn’t the ti Qien wiped away her tears and said, “Alright, since you already knohat’s going on, you don’t have to feel bad anys anymore either” She stopped hi “If you really feel any remorse, then promise me that you’ll keep this a secret Don’t let sister-in-law orclan with our last bit of dignity”
Zu An could i expression After all, this wasn’t anything glorious If news leaked out, it would ie scandal
“Okay, I pro Qien’s eyelashes trembled as she quietly replied, “Thank you”
“Um, there’s one last question,” Zu An added hesitantly
“What is it?” Sang Qien asked
“How can you be sure that you’ll definitely get pregnant just fro Qien’s cheeks turned red She bit her lip and said, “I’m not sure” She was too enancy-helping pill
Zu An reested, “Should we try a few more times?”
