Chapter 365 You Have No Brothers or Sisters
Bai Limei seemed to notice Ye Wanxi's gaze, her smile froze slightly, and she subconsciously reached out to cover her stomach.
Ye Wanxi's eyes flickered slightly, and she vaguely guessed what was going on.
Ning Anquan and the others insisted on leaving, and Bai Limei did not try to stop them. She only removed her disguise after they had completely left.
Biting her beautiful thumbnail, she stared fearfully and menacingly in the direction the group had left, muttering nervously, "Why did she come? What's she doing here? What is she doing?"
Once inside Ning Anquan's extended limousine, the group unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Because of the things in the house, the group felt heavy-hearted, and the atmosphere in the car was somewhat awkward.
Finally, Ye Wanxi broke the silence first: "She's pregnant?"
Ning Anquan was stunned for a moment before realizing that Ye Wanxi was talking about Bai Limei, and said awkwardly, "Yes."
How old are you?
"She's been pregnant for almost three months. She must have gone out for a prenatal checkup today."
Ye Wanxi nodded, rested her chin on her hand, looked at the traffic outside, and casually dropped a bombshell: "You don't have any younger brothers or sisters."
At first, the group didn't quite grasp the meaning of Ye Wanxi's words, until Gao Min exclaimed in surprise, "No younger siblings? Then what about that child just now..."
The tufts of hair on Zou Hanming and Ning Anquan's heads stood up instantly, and they stared at each other in shock.
"Is what Miss Ye said true? That woman's baby..."
"Judging from your appearance, you are an only child and have no younger siblings or older siblings by blood."
"How dare she... how dare she..." Ning Anquan's hands, hanging by his sides, were already clenched into fists, and his face was turning pale with anger.
Even though the matter of selling the old house had created a rift between him and his father, the father was still the one who had raised and loved him for over twenty years.
If Bai Limei hadn't done those disgusting things after marrying his father, Ning Anquan wouldn't have been so disgusted by his father's remarriage.
But this woman actually dared to cheat on her husband with another man behind his father's back, and even got pregnant with another man's illegitimate child.
Ning Anquan, who already suspected foul play in his father's death, became even more certain that Bai Limei was involved when he learned of this major event.
Zou Hanming curled his lip, looking disdainful: "I told you this woman isn't much older than you. To exaggerate, your uncle is old enough to be her father! And yet she keeps talking about true love. You're just a man who's blinded by beauty."
Xiang Linsheng's expression was also unpleasant: "After my uncle married her, he put her first in everything and indulged her in every way." Even his son, Ning Anquan, was forced to take a back seat.
For this reason, they have often stood up for Ning Anquan.
Unexpectedly, this woman actually gave Ning Anquan's father such a huge cuckold's horns!
"I remember that this child was mentioned in your uncle's will, wasn't he?"
Ning's father passed away suddenly, but no one expected that he had left a will half a month before the accident.
The will was divided into three parts. The majority of the company and some working capital were given to Ning Anquan, while Bai Limei received the house she currently lives in and a substantial inheritance.
The third part was for Bai Limei's unborn child. It wasn't a large amount, just a small portion of company shares, which Bai Limei would manage until the child reached adulthood.
Ning Anquan sneered: "The old man's inheritance was left to his son and daughter."
This bastard child, who knows where he came from, doesn't even deserve to take their things.
Ning Anquan's expression darkened slightly as he looked at Ye Wanxi again: "Miss Ye."
"Have you calmed down?"
"Um."
"I want to ask if your father's death was related to her?"
"Yes, please tell me."
“There is indeed a connection.” Ye Wanxi met Ning Anquan’s suddenly changed expression. “She has a karmic connection with you. Logically speaking, if it were just a stepmother and stepson relationship, then your entanglement should be very shallow, especially since your father has passed away. This connection should be negligible. But in fact, the karmic connection between her and you is very obvious, and it is even faintly tinged with blood. This means that you have a life-or-death connection with her.”
A life-or-death situation? Their first thought was the death of Ning Anquan's father.
"I understand, thank you, Ms. Ye."
"Hmm." Ye Wanxi said, then seemed to remember something and asked with a faint smile, "Does Mr. Ning know Xue Jifeng?"
Upon hearing this name, the group was all taken aback.
Gao Min stared wide-eyed in surprise, her gaze sweeping over Ning Anquan with a look of inquiry.
Zou Hanming and his companion quickly realized, "Xue Jifeng, isn't he the contestant on that variety show that Miss Ye participated in not long ago?"
"Yes, yes, I also have some impression of him. Little sister, was your performance on stage... cough cough, related to him?"
Ye Wanxi blinked and looked at the two of them: "You guys still watch my variety show?"
The two chuckled: "We hadn't seen you doing much work before, but then we heard you were on a variety show, and it was even on an official channel, so we watched for a while."
As Zou Hanming spoke, he also tactfully flattered Ye Wanxi: "I watched Miss Ye's program, and she performed exceptionally well. You could say she was a quiet person who, when she spoke, amazed everyone!"
Thinking of her performance on stage and the various meme-like discussions online these past two days, Ye Wanxi chuckled dryly and said, "You flatter me."
Fortunately, the awkwardness didn't last long. Ning Anquan didn't know Ye Wanxi very well before, and naturally hadn't watched the variety show they mentioned.
When Ye Wanxi suddenly mentioned Xue Jifeng, he was a little confused. After a moment of realization, he finally remembered where he had heard the name before.
"I remember now, Xue Jifeng is my cousin's music teacher."
"Your cousin's music teacher?"
"Yes, my cousin likes classical music. When she lived with us before, my dad hired several music teachers to teach her instruments, and Xue Jifeng was one of them."
Ning Anquan had some impression of this person because his cousin, for some unknown reason, was a teenage girl experiencing her first crush and, believing in the cheesy tropes of older men dating younger women in idol dramas, developed feelings for him.
Fortunately, Ning Anquan discovered it early and nipped the problem in the bud before it got out of control.
"You suddenly asked who this person is..."
"Check the relationship between this person and your stepmother; you might be pleasantly surprised."
Upon hearing Ye Wanxi's words, Ning Anquan's face turned green.
Upon learning that Bai Limei's child was not his father's, Ning Anquan's first suspect was Uncle Li, who appeared frequently.
But now, after Ye Wanxi said that, he suddenly realized that his young stepmother might have more lovers than he had imagined!
