Chapter 3: Chapter 3

The commotion alarmed the other guests at the banquet.

2

Xia Ningyan picked up the ball of paper on the floor. When she opened it, her eyes suddenly widened. She let out a scream and leaned against Lu Ziyin. She covered her mouth with one hand and tried to hide the paper with the other.

2

“Xia Ningyan, give it to me.” Lu Ziyin reached out his hand.

2

“No, Lu Ziyin, I…” Xia Ningyan tried to evade his stare, but she could not hide the paper in her hand.

2

Swoosh!

2

The paper was snatched away by Lu Ziyin’s mother, Xiang Wenyin. When she saw the words written on it, she could not help but laugh coldly. She looked down at Xia Weiyang and mockingly said, “Xia Weiyang, you want to frame my son for the bastard in your stomach? You were abandoned by a wild man, so you came to seduce your brother-in-law? You want our Lu family to raise a bastard for you? Stop dreaming!”

2

“You’re pregnant?” Lu Ziyin’s tone was indifferent. He looked coldly at the miserable Xia Weiyang lying on the floor and hugged Xia Ningyan intimately.

2

“Sister, did it happen that night? I’m sorry, I didn’t know. I saw you enter the hotel with a man. I thought, I thought you two were in love.” Xia Ningyan’s face was full of guilt. Her small hands tightly clutched Lu Ziyin’s clothes. She lowered her head in an invisible place. The corners of her lips curled up into a smug and sarcastic smile.

2

“Xia Ningyan, it’s none of your business. She was the one who allowed herself to be a degenerate and lowly woman.” Lu Ziyin patted Xia Ningyan’s shoulder and let her lean on him. The tone of his voice became gentle as he comforted her.

2

“Xia Weiyang! Get out of here immediately! The Lu family doesn’t welcome you. If I see you making Xia Ningyan sad again, I will not show you mercy even if you’re a woman.”

2

Suddenly, Lu Ziyin’s eyes shot out a cold gaze that pierced through Xia Weiyang.

The surrounding guests started whispering to one another. As Xia Weiyang looked at the people around her, all she could hear were the words “shameless,” “mistress,” and “slut.”

2

As Xia Weiyang sat on the floor, all she could do was lower her head.

2

‘Little brother, is it true that you’ve really fallen in love with Xia Ningyan?’

2

‘Little brother, did you really forget the things that happened when you were young? Have you forgotten your promise?’

2

Xia Weiyang wanted to ask these things to Lu Ziyin. However, before she could open her mouth, another unexpected incident happened.

2

Like a gust of wind, a woman suddenly approached Xia Weiyang.

2

Slap!

2

Xia Weiyang tilted her face as a deep red palm print appeared on her right cheek.

2

“Xia Weiyang, how can you be so shameless to get pregnant before getting married? Tell me, who is the wild man who did this to you?” A woman who slightly resembled Xia Ningyan glared at Xia Weiyang with an angry face, like she wanted to swallow her whole.

2

As she wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, Xia Weiyang raised her head and looked at her mother Wang Jiayi and Xia Ningyan.

2

“Pregnant before marriage? Xia Ningyan was the same!” Xia Weiyang exclaimed.

2

Why was she the only one being punished for her pregnancy?

2

“Mother, don’t you have any idea who the wild man is?” Xia Weiyang’s tone was full of ridicule. “Little brother, this is the last time I will call you that. Have you already forgotten your promise to me when I was still young?”

2

Hearing this, Lu Ziyin scoffed, “Xia Weiyang, you really are shameless. You want to replace Xia Ningyan. Do you think I’m an idiot?”

2

“What do you mean?” Xia Weiyang asked in a surprised state.

2

“I’ve always been loyal to Xia Ningyan. I’m already fulfilling my promise to her,” Lu Ziyin responded.

2

Xia Weiyang was stunned and confused.

She turned her head stiffly to look at Xia Ningyan who was in Lu Ziyin’s arms. Then, she looked at Lu Ziyin who stared back at her with disdainful and merciless eyes. She then gazed back at Xia Ningyan and sneered, “Sister, you really are a good sister!”

2

“Get lost! Xia Weiyang, you’re disgusting! I don’t want to see you ever again!” Lu Ziyin scolded Xia Weiyang as he wrapped his arms around Xia Ningyan, who was already trembling because of the commotion.

2

“Xia Weiyang, if you still want to be a member of the Xia family, get rid of your bastard child immediately,” her mother, Wang Jiayi, said angrily. After scolding her daughter, she summoned a few people and ordered them to drag Xia Weiyang away.

2

“Do you want to die? How dare you hit my woman and my child!”

2

A deep and magnetic voice with an indifferent yet commanding tone suddenly echoed across the room.
