"Silly." Shu Xin nodded in agreement, "Then what?"
Tong Qiao, "Then he told me that the child was his, and that he was the one who slept with me drunk that night."
Shu Xin reacted for a while before digesting the matter, "No wonder he didn't agree to break off the engagement, but that's wrong. Since he knew you had slept together a long time ago, why didn't he tell you?"
"Who knows what he thinks? We can't understand the old man's thoughts."
"...Oh." Shu Xin asked again, "Then what are your plans?"
Tong Qiao's voice sounded a little listless, "Daughter-in-law, I told you before that I like the man I sleep with, right?"
"Um."
"Now I would rather I never find that man, at least I can leave a fantasy in my heart, at least he is perfect in my heart, but when I knew this man was Lu Jinshen, I really..."
A helpless sigh came from Tong Qiao on the other end of the phone, "I feel like a dog. I can say that he is mature and stable at his age, but he is married and has children. These two points are really hard for me to accept. Also, Since he had a good night with me, who knows if he had a good night with another woman before. To be honest, I think he is too unreliable, but for the sake of the child in my belly, I am willing to give him a chance, and we have negotiated , I will take a leave of absence from school and live in the Lu family to raise the baby, and watch him everywhere. After the baby is born, if we still can’t get along, he said he won’t force me and will let me leave.”
Shu Xin asked: "What about the child?"
"He also agreed to give it to me. After all, he already has a son."
Shu Xin was silent for a few seconds, "That's okay, it's not bad for you..."
"There's no harm in it. I've only been here for two days and I can't stand it anymore. His devil son is really... I'm going crazy because of his torment."
Shu Xin smiled, "It's just a child, that's all?"
"No, no, no, he is no ordinary child, he is completely a little devil."
"How old is the child?"
"Four years old."
"You buy him some food and toys and coax him. Children like it best."
"He doesn't want to see me, so why should I try to please him? I don't want to."
"..." Shu Xin was speechless, "Why are you angry with a child?"
"Don't say this!" Tong Qiao's angry voice came from the other end of the phone, "If you say this in front of me in the future, I will be angry with you."
Shu Xin guessed that it was someone from the Lu family who had been whispering these words in Tong Qiao's ears these past few days, "... Oh."
"Let's not talk about that little devil. Talking about him gives me a headache. I will stay in the capital in the next few months. You should go see Ning Ning more often. She should be bored by herself."
"Um."
"Okay, that's all. I'm going to wash the fruit and eat it."
Shu Xin told Tong Qiao a few words to pay attention to her health and take good care of her baby before hanging up the phone.
"Whose child is Jin Shen's?" Huo Yanting asked after Shu Xin hung up the phone.
"The child in Qiao'er's belly."
"Um?"
Shu Xin remembered that she hadn't told Huo Yanqing about Tong Qiao's pregnancy, so she said, "Qiao'er escaped from marriage and went to a bar to get drunk. She had sex with a man and then got pregnant. Now Qiao'er knows that the man that night was Lu Jinshen.”
"How old is the child?"
"It's been almost five months." Shu Xin could see that Huo Yanqing was a little unhappy, and knew that he blamed her for hiding him, so she explained, "You and Lu Jinshen have such a good relationship, doesn't telling you mean telling him?"
