Chapter 127 Don't Ask, Kids

Mr. Jia got a satisfactory answer and temporarily forgot the pain of the five million. He left with his newlywed wife contentedly.

Ye Wanxi's face suddenly darkened: "Is there any juice?"

"Yes, yes, yes, what would you like to drink? I'll go get it for you."

"Orange juice, please."

After all, it was his own territory, so Wang Chengwen moved quickly and came back with a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice in just a short while.

Ye Wanxi took it and drank it all in one gulp. Only then did she manage to suppress the nausea and feel a little better.

Seeing her like this, Feng Tianyu frowned deeply: "Are you feeling very unwell? Should we go to the hospital?"

"It's not that serious, I'm just a little disgusted, I'll be fine after a while."

"Disgusted?" Wang Chengwen's eyes flickered slightly. "Is it because of those two people just now?"

"Uncle Wang seems to know something?"

Wang Chengwen looked around to make sure no one else was around before awkwardly laughing and saying, "I was just guessing. President Jia is a man who cares about his image. Years ago, he had a good relationship with some high-ranking officials at the station, and he liked to invite the station's hosts to help him make a splash when he opened a shop."

“About three months ago, he opened a jewelry branch in the city, and my colleague was invited to host the ribbon-cutting ceremony. When he came back, he told me that Mr. Jia’s wife also attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony with him.”

"Anyone in City A who has even a slight interest in Mr. Jia knows that he started from scratch, and his wife has been with him since he was a poor boy. The two are about the same age, and according to my colleague's description, perhaps because she suffered a lot with Mr. Jia in his early years, Mrs. Jia looks a little older than him."

Wang Chengwen spoke tactfully, but it did not prevent everyone present from understanding what he meant.

The Boss Jia who just came looked to be at least in his early fifties, and Mrs. Jia was even older than him, so it definitely couldn't be the bright and beautiful woman next to him who looked to be in her early thirties at most.

When I think about it, three months ago, the couple attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the new store together, and the woman's belly was at least four or five months pregnant, so her identity was obvious.

"Men who behave themselves when things are tough, but abandon their wives and have affairs as soon as they get money, are the most disgusting." Guan Xuanshi was also disgusted and asked Ye Wanxi curiously, "Miss Ye, you just saw that this man was trash, so you deliberately set the price so high, right?"

"The reason I set such a high price is because I know that he divorced his wife a month ago so that his mistress and her unborn child could have a legitimate status."

"Because he favored sons over daughters, he didn't fight for custody of his daughter. Instead, he tricked his wife, who was barely literate, into signing a bunch of agreements waiving her share of the property, leaving the mother and daughter with nothing and kicking them out of the house."

"Holy crap, is this even human?!"

It was clearly the man who cheated, but in the end, his original wife and daughter, who had been with him for decades, were forced to leave the house and become homeless.

This time, not only Ye Wanxi was disgusted, but everyone present was also disgusted.

"Still favoring boys over girls? What's wrong with daughters? They're so cute! I love daughters, they're my sweet little darlings, so soft and tender, who wouldn't love them? Boss, don't you agree?"

Feng Tianyu was suddenly called out, and when he looked up he met Ye Wanxi's curious gaze.

"Brother, do you prefer a boy or a girl?"

Upon hearing this, the others also looked over curiously.

Feng Tianyu's eyes darkened slightly: "Men and women are the same, I only like the mother of the child."

Everyone: "..." This answer is really hard to refute.

Ye Wanxi thought with pride and sadness that her senior brother was indeed a perfect man, and she didn't know who would get the advantage in the future.

In a way, Xiang Yueqi, who understood his senior brother very well, looked at Ye Wanxi with sympathy.

My poor junior sister, she has no idea that danger is lurking nearby. Her senior brother is probably already rehearsing countless ways in his mind to make her have his child.

But you're still as naive as a little white rabbit; sooner or later, you'll be snatched away by a big bad wolf.

"So, that woman was really carrying a son?"

Ye Wanxi looked down at her phone and said nonchalantly, "We can't have the baby anyway, so who cares if it's a son or a daughter?"

"Can't give birth?" Guan Xuanshi and Wang Chengwen exclaimed in surprise. After realizing what had happened, they subconsciously looked around, looking like they had done something wrong.

"Otherwise, why do you think I felt nauseous just now?" Ye Wanxi glanced at the confirmation message on her phone, then put her phone away with satisfaction. "That woman, she's raising a ghost child."

“Little… brat? The kind I’m thinking of…” Guan Xianshi’s voice started to tremble.

"Don't doubt it, it's exactly what you're thinking of."

"But those are usually..."

Before Guan Xianshi could finish speaking, Wang Chengwen interrupted, "Now that you mention it, I do remember. I thought that woman looked familiar, and now that I think about it, I did see her on the same show. Back then, she was a fairly well-known adult film star..."

"Sex symbol? What is a sex symbol?"

"A porn star is..."

Just as Guan Xian was about to give some popular science lecture, Xiang Yueqi and Feng Tianyu glared at him at the same time.

"..." trembling.jpg

Feng Tianyu reached out and patted her head, coaxing her softly, "It's nothing serious, little girl, don't ask."

"……oh."

After Ye Wanxi finished replying, she realized that she was already an adult and no longer a child.

Unfortunately, after being glared at by the two big shots protecting their child, the experienced driver had already cowered and pretended to be dead, unable to get any more information out of him.

Ye Wanxi bit her juice straw unhappily, thinking that this was the end of her problem. She would search online when she got back. Humph!

Wang Chengwen also realized that his words might have a bad influence on children, so he coughed lightly and continued, "She was quite popular in her early years. It's just a pity that her private life was as chaotic as what she portrayed on screen. After being a sensation for a while, she was exposed for having multiple relationships at the same time and cough cough... the nude photo scandal, and she faded into obscurity not long after."

"So, she's raising a ghost child to try and revive her career?"

"That's possible."

"And the baby in her belly..."

Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Ye Wanxi.

Ye Wanxi blinked and gave a mysterious smile: "What do you guys think?"

"...Could it be a ghost she's raising?"

Ye Wanxi didn't answer, but smiled mysteriously again.

Wang Chengwen trembled all over when he followed the orchestra, and almost couldn't help but hug himself.

They are just ordinary people, why would they be so foolish as to try to find out such a shocking secret?

Xiang Yueqi, however, knew a little about this stuff, and said with a solemn expression, "Raising a ghost child is an evil and crooked practice, and it is very easy to backfire. For her to raise a ghost child into her own belly like this is clearly courting death."
