Chapter 255 We Are Together
Xu Zhengnan's face was cold and distant. "Mom, I told you, I've broken up with her, and the baby in her belly is not mine."
Jiang Xinyu broke down and said, "Stop slandering my child! I did do something wrong, but the child is innocent. You are his father. Don't you think it's cruel to slander him again and again?"
As she said this, she burst into tears.
The messy scene caught Aunt Yang off guard. She comforted Jiang Xinyu while scolding Xu Zhengnan.
Xu Zhengnan's gaze penetrated the chaos in front of him and fell on me. He was signaling me not to avoid it.
But Aunt Yang's love for Jiang Xinyu was beyond my expectations, and I couldn't help feeling nervous and scared.
I was afraid that Aunt Yang would no longer like me after I told the secret.
Even my parents would blame me, because my shameful past is a dark history that makes others think that I am not worthy of Xu Zhengnan.
I clenched my fists, my heart was beating violently, but I still couldn't speak.
The courage to go crazy for love seemed to have been exhausted by the age of seventeen.
"Zhengnan, I think Xiao Jiang is a good girl. She is a good match for you in every aspect. Don't be too impulsive." My mother advised.
Xu Zhengnan's face was cold, "Jiang Xinyu, do you really want me to expose your shameful deeds?"
Jiang Xinyu looked panicked for a moment. She told Aunt Yang a lot of things, but she probably didn't tell her about her affair.
She must have found an excuse to cover up the wrong things she had done, otherwise Aunt Yang would not like her so much and feel sorry for her.
Aunt Yang was confused. "Something shameful? What is it? Zhengnan, explain it clearly."
Xu Zhengnan was reluctant to tell others that he and Jiang Xinyu broke up because the woman cheated on him, because he felt it was difficult for a man to talk about it.
He doesn't like to be a laughing stock when it comes to relationships.
Especially since he didn't really like Jiang Xinyu. They had agreed at the beginning that if they met someone else they liked, they would break up honestly. However, Jiang Xinyu kept it a secret from him while having an affair with other men.
This was intolerable to him.
Now Jiang Xinyu has brainwashed Aunt Yang. If she doesn't expose her, Aunt Yang will probably rush forward without a mind.
"That's all in the past. Everyone makes mistakes, but knowing your mistakes and correcting them is the best thing, isn't it?" Jiang Xinyu suddenly pointed at me. "Just like her, she also made mistakes, but she came to her senses, and everyone chose to accept her and was happy for her."
When my mother saw Jiang Xinyu pointing at me, a hint of displeasure flashed across her face. She certainly didn't want anyone to use my past as an example.
Xu Zhengnan's face darkened, "Can cheating be forgiven?"
"Cheating?" Aunt Yang was shocked and looked at Jiang Xinyu in disbelief, "Xinyu, you cheated?"
"I said, the baby in her belly is not mine." Xu Zhengnan's voice was cold.
Aunt Yang was shocked. She stammered, "I, I thought you didn't want to admit it, so, that's why..."
After the ugliest thing was exposed, Jiang Xinyu's face looked extremely ugly. She stared at me with gritted teeth, as if I was the one who caused all this.
"I didn't!" she denied.
Xu Zhengnan took out his cell phone and opened a few photos. They were pictures of Jiang Xinyu sleeping with other men. They were different men, and they looked like male models.
This is irrefutable evidence, but he hadn't shown it to me before.
If Jiang Xinyu hadn't denied it, he wouldn't have taken it out to show Aunt Yang.
After seeing the photos, Aunt Yang almost fell down. In the past few days, she had been taking good care of Jiang Xinyu. Even though the child was gone, she didn't mind. Instead, she felt that it was all her son's fault and she must compensate him.
As it turned out, Jiang Xinyu was nothing like she said, it was all a lie.
Jiang Xinyu was completely panicked. She still wanted to rely on Aunt Yang to turn things around. If even Aunt Yang was unwilling to stand on her side, then she would have no hope at all.
She knelt down, holding Aunt Yang's hand and crying, "Aunt, I was wrong at that time. Zhengnan didn't love me and never touched me. I did the wrong thing to get revenge on him. Later, he drank too much and we had sex. I got pregnant and I never messed around again. The baby in my belly is indeed his. You have seen the photo. He looks exactly like Zhengnan..."
Aunt Yang shook off Jiang Xinyu's hand, her eyes full of disappointment, and said nothing.
Jiang Xinyu saw that she had lost her most capable helper, and she gritted her teeth and stood up.
She looked at me unwillingly, "Li Yue, this was your idea, right?"
"No." I denied.
My mother was very unhappy when she saw that she was trying to direct the blame at me again. "Ms. Jiang, don't always target my Xiaoyue. You did something wrong yourself, why blame her?"
Jiang Xinyu wiped her tears and sneered, "Aunt, your daughter is not innocent. If it weren't for her, why would Zhengnan not give me a chance? Why would he not recognize our child?"
Her words made my mother and Aunt Yang's faces change.
Aunt Yang asked, "Please tell me clearly, what does this have to do with Xiaoyue?"
Jiang Xinyu laughed, "Don't you know yet? Xu Zhengnan and Li Yue are already together. It seems that he is afraid that you will object, so he dare not tell you."
The atmosphere froze for a moment, no one spoke, and my mother turned her head and looked at me in disbelief.
Aunt Yang was dazed, as if she didn't react.
I was afraid to face all this and wanted to hide like an ostrich, but Jiang Xinyu spoke for me directly. Since her true identity was exposed, she would naturally not let me off easily.
She knew very well that Aunt Yang wanted to have a grandson, and it was well known that I was infertile, so once everyone knew that I became Xu Zhengnan's girlfriend, there would definitely be a lot of talk.
"Xiaoyue, is this true?" My mother finally spoke, her voice full of nervousness.
Aunt Yang also questioned Xu Zhengnan in a trembling voice, "Zhengnan, are you and Xiaoyue really together?"
Judging from their reactions, they were not happy or supportive.
At this second, my heart sank to the bottom.
My lips seemed to be glued together and I couldn't open my mouth. The scene of me confessing to my family that I was with Shen Yixiao emerged in my mind. I was faced with anger, opposition, and disappointment.
Those scenes left a deep psychological trauma on me, and when similar things happened, I couldn't be mentally strong enough.
"Yes, we are together." Finally, it was Xu Zhengnan who admitted our relationship. He came over and held my hand. "I pursued her."
I saw that Aunt Yang's face was as white as a piece of paper, as if all the strength had been drained away in an instant. She stared at Xu Zhengnan and me with an incredulous look, which made me feel very nervous.
