Chapter 312

"Right, Ke Yun'er, can crying serve as proof? Just go for a paternity test to clear your name, otherwise, people will keep gossiping about you."

"That's right, Ke Yun'er, don’t be afraid. If the facts prove you’ve been wronged, our Yu Family will definitely compensate you."

"I don’t care about the rest, but my husband is definitely innocent. I need to prove it for him, so no one can talk behind our backs."

The women of the Yu Family spoke in a sarcastic tone, eyeing each other suspiciously, each doubting the other’s husband.

Their husbands, of course, were willing to cooperate, as they knew in their hearts whether they were involved or not.

Yu Yi, who had no wife, was surprisingly overlooked for the moment.

Perhaps it was because Yu Yi had always been known to mingle with young, carefree girls, so they subconsciously didn’t think he’d be interested in Ke Yun'er.

But Yu Yi’s expression was slightly complicated.

What if they dug deeper? Wouldn’t he be exposed then?

Meanwhile, the happiest person in the Yu Family at that moment was Yu Yue.

So, when Ke Yun'er sent another desperate plea for help, Yu Yue ignored it and even turned to Bai Xiaoxi, exchanging meaningful glances with her.

At that moment, Ke Yun'er felt as if a string in her brain had snapped. Her face darkened, and she completely forgot to maintain her fragile, innocent facade.

Yu's Father was furious, but he still hadn’t completely doubted Ke Yun'er. In his eyes, she had always been delicate and unlikely to have the courage to do such a thing. So, in this tense atmosphere, Yu's Father could only say, "Fine, let’s do the test. But if you’re lying to me…"

He shot a menacing look at his ex-wife.

The ex-wife, however, wasn’t fazed at all. After all, she was telling the truth and even gestured for Yu's Father to proceed.

Just as Yu's Father was about to grab Ke Yun'er, she noticed that Yu Yue remained indifferent. Unable to bear the pressure any longer, she shouted, "Don’t touch me!"

Yu's Father was startled, his expression instantly changing as he looked at Ke Yun'er. "So, you really…"

"No, the child was yours, but… our child… is gone," Ke Yun'er said, covering her face and bursting into tears. "I had a miscarriage while you were abroad."

Yu's Father wasn’t even sure about the child’s identity yet. What if it really was his last child?

The news hit him like a thunderbolt, and he immediately grabbed Ke Yun'er’s arm, demanding, "What are you talking about? How could you have a miscarriage? Didn’t you follow the doctor’s orders and have people take good care of you? How dare you…"

Everyone was stunned.

What?

The child is gone?

Wait, isn’t this plot moving too fast? Weren’t they just trying to figure out who the father was?

"Ha, Old Yu, still can’t figure it out? What a coincidence, huh! I think she realized after the test that the child wasn’t yours. She was too scared to let you know she’d been messing around with your family behind your back, so she got rid of the child on purpose," the ex-wife said bluntly. "Once you marry her, she’ll fake another accident and pretend to lose the child. Don’t let her fool you."

Her explanation made perfect sense. Everyone couldn’t help but nod, feeling that this was probably the truth.

"Shut up!" Yu's Father was now beyond caring. If the child was still here, he’d have some hope. But with the child gone, did it even matter whose it was? "Tell me what really happened!"

Ke Yun'er trembled, finally lowering her hands from her face, her eyes darting around.

Things were moving too fast. Yu Yue and Bai Xiaoxi hadn’t expected it to escalate to this point, leaving them unprepared.

The next second, Ke Yun'er pointed at Bai Xiaoxi. "It was Miss Bai who accidentally pushed me, causing me to fall. That’s why I lost the child. I really didn’t mean to. It was my child too, wuwuwu…"

The crowd was choking on their metaphorical popcorn. One moment they were shocked by the news of the child’s loss, and the next, they heard that the loss was connected to Yu's Father’s future daughter-in-law.

Was this another case of family drama in a wealthy household?

This was a chain of scandals!

They didn’t even know which part to focus on anymore.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

They couldn’t help but marvel at how the scandals in wealthy families were never small.

The first to react were the Bai Couple, who were doting parents. They had come as future in-laws to attend the wedding, but now their precious daughter was being dragged into the Yu Family’s mess. If it weren’t for Yu Yue’s genuine affection for Bai Xiaoxi, the Bai family would have been utterly disgusted by the Yu Family’s situation.

The protective couple immediately rushed to their daughter’s side, shielding her from both sides.

"Nonsense!"

"How could our Xiaoxi push you?"

But before they could defend her further, they noticed that Bai Xiaoxi’s face had turned pale.

Even though they had confirmed that the child wasn’t Yu Yue’s, the thought of possibly being responsible for a child not being born weighed heavily on Bai Xiaoxi’s conscience.

Being publicly accused like this only made her look worse.

In contrast, Yu Yue’s face darkened instantly.

[Ah, as expected, she’s still targeting Bai Xiaoxi, trying to use her as a scapegoat. This woman is really… It was all her own plan. We can’t let her succeed, but what can we do?]

Ji Fei was getting anxious, but the next moment, someone wrapped an arm around her shoulders and whispered in her ear, "Don’t worry, leave it to Yu Yue. He’ll protect his own wife."

Ji Fei didn’t think much of it and instinctively felt reassured.

The rest of the group was on edge, unsure of how to help.

Meanwhile, Ke Yun'er continued her accusations, addressing the Bai Couple. "I know Miss Bai didn’t mean to do it. It was truly an accident. If I hadn’t been forced into this situation today, I wouldn’t have brought it up. But it’s because of Miss Bai that I lost my child. Now that I’m being falsely accused, I just… wuwuwu!"

If what she said was true, then she was truly unfortunate.

After all, in everyone’s mind, since the child was gone, there was no way to conduct a paternity test.

Before the ex-wife could expose the absurdity of this claim, Yu's Father turned to Bai Xiaoxi and asked, "Was it you, Xiaoxi?"

The Bai Couple tensed up. Seeing their daughter’s expression, they knew there might have been some kind of accident. They were about to say something when suddenly, Yu Yue spoke in a cold, low voice.

"Don’t throw any dirty water on my precious girl."

"I’ve already investigated. Before the incident, your prenatal check-up report showed that the child was already in distress. Regardless of whether Xiaoxi accidentally pulled you or not, that child was never going to be born. So, I have every reason to suspect that you deliberately used the child to frame Xiaoxi."

Actually, this wasn’t true. Qin Xian had thought of it earlier and sent a message to Yu Yue, suggesting he look into it. Yu Yue was just bluffing now.
