Why Provoke Her? She's King Yama!

King Yama, Jiang Yuan, wove her own lamp soul to repay her karma, but after her merit was exhausted, her soul transmigrated into the body of Jiang Yuan, the adopted daughter who was kicked out of h...

Chapter 23 They Want You to Be the Mother of Their Child

Shen Moxin's heart skipped a beat, her hands trembled, and her nails dug into her palms as she barely managed to control her emotions.

“That morning when I woke up, my husband wasn’t by my side. When I went out of the room to look for him, I found my mother busy in the kitchen and he was helping her. I even teased them, saying that they didn’t look like a mother-in-law and son-in-law, but had a relationship as harmonious as a mother and son. That day… they…” Shen Mo bit her pale lips, tears streaming down her face.

Mother's Day...it's been more than three months now, more than three months...

Chen Jia spent more than three months with her mother before she noticed anything amiss.

"Yes, that day your husband, emboldened by alcohol, sneaked into your mother's room. Your mother didn't refuse. After spending the night together, although he felt uneasy and guilty towards you, the pleasure of their tryst made them addicted, and they continued to maintain this relationship in private afterward."

[This mother is really something, she's even taking care of her son-in-law in bed.]

[How disgusting! Even if she likes her son-in-law, she shouldn't treat her daughter like this. How cruel!]

[This gave me goosebumps; it's the first time I've ever seen anything like it.]

“Your husband’s attitude suddenly changed, and he’s not going to accompany you to your prenatal checkup because he can’t be in two places at the same time,” Jiang Yuan continued.

Shen Mo's pupils dilated in astonishment.

What, what does that mean?

"You mean... my mother is pregnant too? She's fifty-three years old. Isn't it irresponsible of her to get pregnant? When the baby is born, people will just think she's a grandmother!" Shen Mo said excitedly.

She thought her mother's affair with Chen Jia was absurd enough, but she never expected that her mother would be pregnant with Chen Jia's child!

“Your mother just wants people to think she’s the child’s grandmother, so that you can be the child’s mother and the child can stay with her legitimately,” Jiang Yuan said.

Shen Mo frowned, not understanding what Jiang Yuan meant.

Do you want her to be the child's mother?

She's pregnant with her own child now, how could she possibly be a mother to her child?

Even if she did become a mother, she would still dote on her own child, after all...

Your own children are your own flesh and blood, so you're closer to them.

"It's simple, just get rid of your child, isn't that enough?"

“Your child is gone, but your mother’s child is also your family’s flesh and blood, with the same blood as you. If you keep begging and pleading, you will eventually agree.”

Jiang Yuan reminded him.

The strongest bond that has never been broken since ancient times is not some nonsense of love, but rather the bond of blood ties.

Not many people can be so heartless as to sever ties with their family, and Shen Mo couldn't either, because she was soft-hearted and kind.

[The baby's gone? Oh my god, could it be what I'm thinking?]

We can't possibly be thinking the same thing, can we?

[This is terrifying, so frightening.]

Shen Moxin sank to the bottom, and the more he thought about it, the more terrifying it seemed.

"Now... you'd better call the police. They're on their way. They want to trick you into taking the pills so you can abort the child, and then... it will be perfectly legitimate." Jiang Yuan's thin lips parted slightly, her voice calm yet penetrating.

Shen Mo shuddered, his trembling hands quickly switching screens, before he could even call the police.

Ding-dong—

Shen Mo turned to look at the closed door, his hair standing on end, a chill running down his spine.

[That's terrifying! Call the police right away! Someone please call the police!]

I don't know where this girl lives or her address!

Help! I'm so scared!

Click—

The doorknob turns, and the door opens.

Chen Jia was carrying large and small bags, his face beaming with a happy smile, and beside him stood a beautiful woman dressed in flamboyant attire with an exceptional air of elegance.

Sitting on the sofa, Shen Mo stared intently at the two of them without saying a word, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.

The thought of what the anchor said sent chills down her spine.

The two people in front of her were, respectively, her closest relative and the person she loved.

How could they treat her like that?

"Why didn't you open the door when you were home?" Liu Meiyu changed into slippers, stepped into the living room, and said to Shen Mo with a smile. "Xiao Mo, what's wrong? Why do you look like you've lost your soul?" Chen Jia put his things on the table and immediately noticed that Shen Mo was acting strangely.

Whenever she sees him come home, she rushes up to him excitedly and says, "Honey, you're back!" She does the same thing when her mother is around.

When I saw him come back today, his attitude was not only unusual, but also a bit strange.

Shen Mo gripped his phone tightly; the live stream was still running.

"No, it's nothing." Shen Mo came back to his senses and pretended to be calm.

"I think you haven't rested well, Xiao Jia. My daughter is carrying your child, so you'd better take good care of her. If anything happens to my daughter, I'll hold you responsible," Liu Meiyu said jokingly, looking at Chen Jia.

"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely treat Xiao Mo well." Chen Jia sat next to Shen Mo and said with a gentle expression, her eyes seemingly filled with deep affection.

Shen Mo felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if it had been cut by a knife. If he had heard her say this before, she would have been as happy as if she had eaten candy, but now she only felt disgusted.

"Let me see if my son has been fussy today?" Chen Jia said, leaning down. Just as his ear was about to touch Shen Mo's stomach, Shen Mo subconsciously dodged away.

Chen Jia's body stiffened, and a hint of doubt flashed in Liu Meiyu's eyes. The two of them looked at Shen Mo at the same time.

"Xiao Mo, what's wrong?" Chen Jia's smile froze, and he squinted, looking at Shen Mo suspiciously.

"I...I feel like vomiting, vomiting." After saying that, Shen Mo gagged.

Seeing this, Chen Jia and Liu Meiyu's expressions softened somewhat.

[She's a really good actress.]

Although I'm not a professional, this man doesn't look like a kind person.

[I'm so worried! How can I find out the girl's location and call the police?]

“This is how morning sickness is. Xiao Jia knows you have severe morning sickness, so she specially asked me what I should buy for you to eat today. Look, these are the preserved plums that Xiao Jia bought. Try them.” Liu Meiyu rummaged through the various bags and found a jar of preserved plums. She opened it and handed it to Shen Mo.

"Did Mom go shopping with Chen Jia today?" Shen Mo couldn't help but ask, his eyes fixed on Liu Meiyu, then falling on her stomach.

Her belly was slightly protruding, not much, and most people would just assume that she had gained weight.

“Xiao Jia is a first-time father and has no experience. He didn’t have anyone to ask for advice, so he came to me. You wouldn’t be jealous of your mother, would you?” Liu Meiyu said with a smile.

“Our Xiao Mo isn’t that petty. She wouldn’t be jealous of her mother no matter who she’s with,” Chen Jia chimed in, taking Shen Mo’s hand again.

“By the way, Xiao Jia said that you not only have severe morning sickness, but you also suffer from insomnia and poor blood circulation. Sometimes you feel dizzy. I was like that when I was pregnant with you, so I went to see that traditional Chinese medicine doctor and asked him to prescribe some Chinese medicine. He has already brewed the first packet of medicine for you. Drink it while it's hot.” ​​Liu Meiyu said, taking out a packet of Chinese medicine from another bag. It was pitch black.

He unscrewed the cap and handed it to Shen Mo.

Shen Mo's face turned pale and ugly. Remembering the abortion pills the anchor had mentioned, his eyes were filled with fear, and he didn't take the pills for a long time.
