Chapter 1270 - 1269: Zhang Shuai Shows Up
But Xiao Keyu kept sending messages to Lan Tian, but Lan Tian didn’t respond after seeing them. She’s been incredibly busy lately; who’s got the mood to deal with a kid?
At this moment, Xiao Keyu had just finished sending a message to Lan Tian. He originally didn’t plan to look at the messages from his vicious mom, but the content kept flashing on the screen.
Right now, Xiao Keyu felt as if he’d been struck by lightning. How could he not be a biological child after living in the Xiao Mansion for so many years?
Yet this couldn’t help but force Xiao Zhen to believe it, so for the first time, Xiao Zhen took the initiative to call, and Ye Jingli, seeing the call coming in, was overjoyed. This was good.
"This little brat finally knows to answer the phone now, huh? Do you know what’s happening and you’re still bearing a grudge against me? If you don’t answer the phone again, you’ll bear the consequences alone and you can wait to be kicked out."
Upon hearing this woman’s words, although Xiao Keyu wanted to curse, he couldn’t be arrogant now. Especially knowing he’s not Xiao Zhen’s biological son, he even wanted to strangle Ye Jingli. Why would the identity he struggled to earn turn out to be fake?
No wonder, on that day in the hospital, Dad not only kicked him but also looked at him like he was seeing an enemy.
Ye Jingli, having calmed down, quickly said before Xiao Keyu could hang up: "Listen to me now. We’ll find a hospital and get a doctor to give false evidence that proves you’re Xiao Zhen’s biological son. This way, you can keep your status in the Xiao Family, and I can keep my position as well. Does this work for you? If you refuse, then we’re both finished; we’re in this together."
Hearing Ye Jingli’s words, Xiao Keyu was unwilling to cooperate, but his current identity was fake, so he murmured a reply: "Fine, I got it. I’ll go this afternoon. You better come early, or I won’t wait for you."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Keyu threw the phone onto the bed. The vicious woman who brought him into this world, he thought she had good intentions, but instead, she gave him such a humiliating identity. Whose child is he really? This thought made Xiao Keyu even more distressed.
Meanwhile, Ye Jingli hurried to get ready. As she was about to leave, she was blocked at the villa door by a person looking disheveled; she almost didn’t recognize them.
Upon closer inspection, it was Zhang Shuai, who blocked her a few days ago.
Recalling what Zhang Shuai mentioned earlier, Ye Jingli quickly wanted to flee back indoors, but Zhang Shuai grabbed her arm.
"Lili, can’t you give me some money to settle the company finances? The company has already filed a lawsuit against me, and if I don’t repay these debts, I’ll be thrown into prison. Are you willing to see this child born without a father?"
Zhang Shuai was particularly pitiful now, but how could Ye Jingli easily return swallowed money? Besides, she needed this money for hospital arrangements, making it even less likely for her to give it back.
So Ye Jingli touched her belly, feeling very troubled: "I hired a nutritionist to handle the baby’s diet these days, so that money’s already spent. What money are you asking for? There’s none, give up on it. And isn’t spending it on the child worth it?"
At this moment, Zhang Shuai felt this woman was wasteful. He himself grew up in the countryside without a nutritionist, didn’t he grow up safely?
And his daughter from his previous marriage had no proper nutrition either, yet she grew up healthy and safe, didn’t she?
"Stop fooling me and cough up that money. If you don’t, neither of us is leaving today. You’re the Young Mistress of the Xiao Family; how can you have no money? If you don’t have money, ask Xiao Zhen for it, can you ask him for money to repay these debts?"
At this point, Zhang Shuai’s eyes were frantic, almost on the brink of insanity, and Ye Jingli was frightened, scared he’d do something horrible. She quickly stepped back, covering her belly, and cried out fearfully.
"Where am I supposed to find the money? Besides, he wouldn’t give me any. If he gave me money, I wouldn’t beg you for some."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shuai slapped Ye Jingli’s face, not caring that she bore his child.
"Vile woman, I ask for money, how can you procrastinate? When you asked me for money, did I ever avoid it? Also, aren’t you the Young Mistress of the Xiao Family? Ask for the money then."
After the slap, Ye Jingli, going by her previous nature, would’ve jumped up and argued, but now she didn’t dare. Seeing Zhang Shuai nearly unhinged, she quickly knelt down.
"Calm down a bit, I’ll ask him for money now, and once he gives it to me, I’ll transfer it to you, alright?"
"But there are other things, let me leave first, okay?"
But Zhang Shuai didn’t believe her, grabbing her arm tightly: "You have another hand, don’t you? Call for the money now, no tricks. I don’t trust you one bit now."
Afraid because of Zhang Shuai’s persistence, Ye Jingli reluctantly called Xiao Zhen, who was sitting in his car and grimaced upon seeing her call, but he answered, thinking of divorce.
"Could you lend me two million? I’ll repay you later."
Hearing Ye Jingli’s tearful tone, Xiao Zhen showed no sympathy, only chuckled coldly: "Repay me? That’s impossible. If you truly repaid money, you wouldn’t ask for it, and especially now that the son isn’t mine, you really have the audacity to ask for money, huh? Not a dime."
After saying this, Xiao Zhen hung up immediately, while Ye Jingli looked at the dropped call, letting out a cry.
"I asked him for money just now, yet he didn’t give me a bit. He doesn’t care about me. What do you want from me? If you don’t care about the child inside me, neither will I anymore. This is your son, isn’t it? Threatening me harms the baby inside. I’ll think of a way to get you money."
