Geng Jun's words undoubtedly dropped a bomb.

"What did you say..." Zhou Xia's mother's eyes widened as if she was dreaming.

Zhou Xia's father rushed over like a madman and strangled Geng Jun: "Say it again! No, I won't listen to you, Zhou Xia, you say it!"

"Dad, Mom..." Zhou Xia's face full of shame and paleness said it all.

"Is everything he said true?" Zhou Xia's mother's lips trembled, and a sharp and resistant expression gradually formed on her face. "Have you really obtained a marriage certificate with him without telling us?"

Zhou Xia looked at her mother's extremely terrified expression and realized that what she had done had reached a certain level of seriousness. She had no idea what to say and reached out her hand in panic: "Mom, don't be like this..."

Bang!

A slap hit Zhou Xia's face hard, and his head was thrown to the side, leaving five red finger marks on his cheek.

"Ai Lan!" Zhou Xia's father hurriedly protected Zhou Xia and kicked Geng Jun away, "Get away from me!"

"Dad!" Zhou Xia's eyes were filled with tears, "I'm sorry..."

Not far from them, Xiao Wa slowly walked over to Xiao Xingyu and called him in a low voice: "Brother Yu, I have something to tell you."

Xiao Xingyu was paying attention to Zhou Xia and her parents: "Wait a moment."

Xiaowa: "Oh."

He followed Xiao Xingyu's gaze and saw Zhou Xia's father asking Zhou Xia anxiously, "Son, tell me the truth. Did this man deliberately approach you and deceive you from the beginning by not telling you that he was from the Geng family?"

"No, Dad. Not long after we met, Geng Jun told me he was from the Geng family in Hangzhou. I just loved him so much that I couldn't help myself." Zhou Xia looked at his father with shining eyes. "It was me who suggested getting married without telling you. I wanted to be with him so much. I knew you wouldn't agree if I asked for your opinion beforehand. Ah——"

Before Zhou Xia could finish her words, her furious mother swung her arm and dragged her away: "You are a slut!"

Zhou Xia stumbled as she was dragged along. Zhang Moyan felt a pang of pain in her chest. Zhou Xia was still pregnant! Thinking of her, her hands and feet stretched out before her head, but they were blocked by a ruthless arm halfway.

The person blocking her was Chen Guanfu, who had stood beside her at some point.

Zhang Moyan was stunned and didn't dare to move.

Fortunately, Xiao Xingyu had stepped forward to support Zhou Xia. He comforted Zhou Xia for a few words, then turned around and scolded his mother, "How can you insult Zhou Xia like this? She's your daughter! She's an adult and has the freedom to decide who to marry. This is her right protected by law and no one can interfere!"

Although Xiao Xingyu's words were harsh, they also showed that he had chosen to hold back. Now, Zhou Xia's parents were already furious just hearing that she and Geng Jun had obtained a marriage certificate. If they told them that Zhou Xia was pregnant, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Right?" Zhou Xia's mother gritted her teeth and pointed at Zhou Xia. "I gave birth to you so you could have this right to bring disgrace upon our family?! I never imagined that the daughter I'd dedicated all my efforts to nurturing and always been so proud of would actually do something so immoral! Your father and I turned down so many important tasks to rush here today to surprise you, and this is how you surprise me?!"

Zhou Xia's mother was almost torn apart by rage. The whole audience was shocked that a weak woman could roar like that. When she finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

When Zhou Xia's mother hit Zhou Xia hard, every word she said pierced into Zhang Moyan's heart, and her heart sank rapidly.

If Zhou Xia, a person from a different family several generations away, marrying Geng Jun was such a shameful act of treason, then what would happen if she, as a descendant of Chen Guanfu, got together with the eldest son and grandson of the Xiao family...?

Xiao Wa sneaked up behind Xiao Xingyu again and tugged at his clothes: "Brother Yu, I have..."

Xiao Xingyu hissed and glared at him: "I said, don't you see what time it is? Let's talk later!"

Xiao Wa said angrily: "Oh."

Footsteps and voices were heard from afar at the entrance. Everyone in the hall turned around and saw Xiao Weizhou, Xiao Weijiang, and Xiao Huai pushing Xiao Guotao, who was in a wheelchair, in.

The moment Xiao Guotao appeared, everyone was shocked and Geng Baishan stood up from his seat.

Zhou Xia's mother wiped her face and quickly walked over to Xiao Guotao, confessing everything about Zhou Xia and Geng Jun as if turning herself in. Xiao Weizhou and Xiao Weijiang's eyes widened in shock when they heard what she said. Xiao Weijiang even roared angrily, raising his claws and ready to strike Geng Jun.

"How could Zhou Xia fall for you when you're such a little bastard? You took advantage of her when she couldn't get Xing Yu, right? You little bastard, you seduced a decent woman and wanted to ruin our Xiao family's reputation, right? I'll beat you to death today!"

Geng Baishan kicked over a chair and said, "I wonder who dares to touch my grandson!"

Xiao Weijiang turned his head, saw who it was, and said sarcastically, "Oh! Who did I think it was? It's the wealthy businessman Geng! Look at this kid, he's really a jerk from top to bottom!"

"Who are you scolding?" Geng Baishan was about to rush forward.

"Only Jiang can't be rude." Xiao Guotao stopped him.

Xiao Weijiang continued to put his hands on his hips as if he hadn't heard anything, when he suddenly heard Xiao Huai say, "Come here!"

Xiao Weijiang's bulging belly relaxed and he walked back smartly and obediently.

"Uncle," Zhou Xia's mother said to Xiao Guotao with a face full of shame, "I'm a bad parent. Yongliang and I will definitely solve this problem properly!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she gritted her teeth and gave Zhou Xia an ultimatum: "I won't say anything else now. I'm telling you clearly that I don't agree with your marriage to this great doctor Geng. I will never accept anyone named Geng having anything to do with me. You must divorce him immediately and break off all ties with him. Come back to Ruzhou with me! Otherwise, from today on, I will pretend that I never gave birth to you, my daughter!"
