Chapter 355 - All of You Have Been Duped by Her! (5)

After hearing Jiang Peihua’s words, Old Mr. Rong smiled and waved to gesture for Butler Zhang to come forth. “Bring the top grade bird’s nest and ginseng here. Lass Anning needs some nourishment.”

...

After coming out of Old Mr. Rong’s mansion, Luo Anning looked at the passing scenery outside the car window in exhaustion. “What do you think will happen if I can’t give birth to the child Grandpa and Mother want after a year?”

Rong Yan turned to look at her before grabbing her hand and placed it on his lap. He gripped it tightly and said, “Don’t let your imagination run wild. I’m here with you no matter what.”

She said with a complicated expression, “Rong Yan, I... ”

“Shut up!” He interrupted. “You’d better not let me hear anything that will anger me.”

Although she didn’t want to say it, she couldn’t bring herself to keep mum.

Jiang Peihua treated her rather well and doted on her like she was her own daughter. Hence, she could not bring herself to deceive Jiang Peihua, the person who was genuinely nice to her.

After a while, Rong Yan said, “If it really can’t work, we’ll go overseas to hide for a year and return with an adopted baby. By then, we’ll be able to answer to Grandpa and Mother.”

“No!” Luo Anning raised her head all of a sudden.

Rong Yan said with a sullen expression, “Do you have a better solution then?”

She bit her lip and said, “Actually, I can choose to be honest with them... ”

Rong Yan sneered, “Be honest? Do you think you can redeem yourself just by coming clean with them? No, no one knows better than me, the reason that you married me. Grandpa’s motive is to make you give birth to my son. If he finds out that you’ll be infertile for the rest of your life, he’ll definitely make you divorce me in less than three days.”

His answer was cruel, ruthless, yet correct!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Luo Anning knew Old Mr. Rong well too. Once the truth comes to light, she would lose her foothold in the Rong Family and might even be chased away mercilessly.

Rong Yan sighed and pulled her into his arms before hugging her tightly. “Anning, just listen to me. Let’s move abroad for a year, in exchange for a peaceful life, alright?”

His voice was full of fatigue and Luo Anning’s heart wrenched up in pain, feeling sad for herself and even more anguish for him.

Unable to contain her emotions, she cupped his handsome face in her hand and began smiling wryly. “Did you forget? The child’s name is going to be recorded in the ancestral records before that’s done, there’ll have to be a DNA test... by then, the truth will still be revealed.”

“I’ll arrange for a doctor to swap the samples.”

Luo Anning rested her head on his chest, finding it to be unfair to Rong Yan while feeling guilty for lying to Jiang Peihua.

“Rong Yan, let’s think of other solutions. If all else fails... we’ll do what you suggested.”

Rong Yan rubbed her head and lifted her chin with his fingers before kissing it gently and expressing assent. “Okay.”

...

On the day of Mo Xiyan’s discharge from the hospital, Tang Chao was getting busy with handling the matters at Tang and hence, did not have the time to take care of Lu Momo who was still suffering from a severe cold. He then called Luo Anning and instructed her to take care of Lu Momo.

Luo Anning initially agreed to fetch Mo Xiyan together with Rong Yan but she chose to look after Lu Momo instead, right after answering the call.

At last, Rong Yan proceeded to pick Mo Xiyan up himself.

Mo Xiyan’s wounds had all healed and the bandage on her right hand had also been removed, thus revealing her light, pinkish scar. She seemed to be in good spirits.

“Yan, you’re here! I was just waiting for you to send me back to the apartment,” Mo Xiyan exclaimed gleefully, leaping towards him like a butterfly.
