Wen Yan's words made Yan Shu widen her eyes involuntarily.
Even if Wen Yan's previous readings were inaccurate, she was dead-on about the pregnancy.
She had indeed secretly tampered with the condoms. Xu Chaolin had never wanted children, but she was approaching thirty and didn't want to be an older mother later on.
She wanted a crystallization of their love.
After getting pregnant, she went to the hospital for a check-up.
When she got the report, she was as happy as a lark.
She returned home in high spirits and personally prepared a candlelight dinner.
After Xu Chaolin got off work, the two had dinner together and danced a romantic dance.
Seeing the uncontrollable joy on her face, he softly asked her what good thing had happened.
She covered his eyes and led him to the sofa.
She took the report out of her bag and handed it to him.
She thought that seeing she was pregnant, he would be surprised, thrilled, and excited.
But to her surprise, his face darkened at a visible rate.
His usually gentle and handsome face became twisted and ferocious. He pinched her jaw hard and furiously demanded to know whose child she was carrying.
Frightened by his anger, it took her a long while to confess that she had tampered with the condoms.
Instead of being happy, he forcefully threw her onto the sofa.
He kicked over the coffee table, sending its contents shattering all over the floor.
He glared at her with sharp, icy eyes, and told her in a tone that brooked no argument to abort the child!
He only wanted a world of just the two of them, without a child interfering.
At that moment, they had the most intense argument since their marriage.
She cried for almost the entire night.
He didn't come to comfort her, and the next day he even personally took her to the hospital.
If she hadn't threatened him with her life, the child would have been aborted right then.
She had thought pregnancy would bring them closer, but unexpectedly, the two argued about it almost every day.
In a fit of anger, she moved out.
When he found her, he still demanded she abort the child, or else their marriage would come to an end.
She asked him if he was afraid of the curse, but he remained silent.
She subconsciously thought he was afraid of not living past thirty, leaving them as a widow and orphan, or that he feared the child would also be cursed.
Previously, after his eldest and second brothers passed away one after another, they had invited a monk to perform a ritual at home.
But his third brother still died suddenly, as if they couldn't escape that vicious curse.
She really had no other choice, so upon a friend's recommendation, she came to the show Calculate Your Life.
She had come here keeping it a secret from Xu Chaolin; if he saw the show, he would definitely be angry.
After all, being slandered and smeared like that, and being called a substitute—who wouldn't be angry!
Yan Shu looked at Wen Yan with a deep frown. You were indeed right about my pregnancy, but in other aspects, you are no match for Master Miao.
— Yan Shu's temper is really too good. If someone talked about my husband like that, I would have gone up and slapped her a few times.
— Boohoo, I'm suddenly so obsessed with Xu Chaolin and Yan Shu's romance. Xu Chaolin didn't want Yan Shu to keep the baby because he was afraid that after he was gone, Yan Shu wouldn't be able to marry into a good family with a child, right?
— Xu Chaolin loves Yan Shu too much. This is a plot you only see in TV dramas! Master Miao, please quickly help the Xu family break the curse, so the lovers can grow old together and be with each other for a lifetime!
— Can we get Wen Yan off the stage? I really don't want to see her ruining this pure and touching love story!
Wen Yan glanced at the bullet screen comments.
She could understand the netizens' feelings, but Xu Chaolin and Yan Shu's life was nothing but a tragedy.
Your current husband doesn't want you to be pregnant, not because of a curse, but because after the child is born, the birth certificate will show the parents' blood types. He isn't the AB blood type of the Xu family at all, but type O.
Your current husband is a murderer with antisocial personality disorder. He has been jealous of Xu Chaolin since childhood, and his personality has long been twisted. Whatever Xu Chaolin has, he will do everything in his power to snatch away, including you.
Oh right, when you were young, did you ever insult your current husband, who was the driver's son?
Yan Shu's thoughts were drawn to some events from her childhood by Wen Yan's words.
The driver's son was named Lin Zheng. In her impression, he was a reticent person.
He was like Xu Chaolin's little tail; wherever Xu Chaolin went, he followed.
Once, Yan Shu wanted to speak with Xu Chaolin alone. She asked Lin Zheng to leave, but Lin Zheng refused to go, so she scolded him a bit.
The general idea was that no matter how much he followed Xu Chaolin, he was still just a driver's son. She told him to know his place and not always follow Xu Chaolin like a tail. She didn't like him at all and didn't want to be friends with him.
After saying that, she saw Lin Zheng look up at her for the first time. At that moment, he looked like a wounded little beast, his eyes welling with tears of humiliation and forbearance.
Almost in that instant, she regretted speaking so harshly. She wanted to apologize, but he hurriedly ran away.
It was very hard for Yan Shu to connect her current husband with Lin Zheng.
No, it absolutely couldn't be true!
Yan Shu cast a pleading look at Miao Daoxing. Master Miao, everything she said is fake, right!
— It must be fake. Master Miao even said the Xu family was cursed.
— Master Miao, quickly slap Wen Yan's face!
— Xu Chaolin's donations are estimated to exceed a billion. Where does Wen Yan get the nerve to slander him like this?
— I really want to jump through the screen and smash Wen Yan's foul mouth.
In the live broadcast room, everyone's eyes turned to Miao Daoxing.
Originally, everyone thought he would directly deny Wen Yan's words, but unexpectedly, after a moment of silence, he gave a slight nod. Everything Wen Yan said is true.
Yan Shu's brain buzzed as if it were about to explode.
Her ears were ringing as if millions of bees had flown in.
How could it be true?
No, it's impossible!
Not only was Yan Shu stunned, but Jiang Nan and the viewers in the live broadcast room also had faces full of disbelief.
Jiang Nan was a professional host after all. She quickly reacted, frowned, and asked Miao Daoxing, Master Miao, but your core keyword is different from Wen Yan's.
Miao Daoxing said calmly, The core keyword I wrote merely matched what Yan Shu was thinking in her heart; it doesn't mean it's the truth.
After saying that, Miao Daoxing looked at Wen Yan and extended his hand to her. Miss Wen, your abilities command my admiration. This time, I have indeed met my match.
Even in front of the camera, Wen Yan did not raise her hand to shake Miao Daoxing's.
Miao Daoxing was not angry. He took a few steps closer to Wen Yan, lowered his head, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, You are very capable and very smart, but this time, you have fallen into the trap I set for you!
A bizarre smile appeared on Miao Daoxing's face. Wen Yan thought of something, and a bone-piercing chill suddenly seeped up her back.
Oh no!
She had indeed been fooled!
