Chapter 30 He Has an Illegitimate Child
"That's not what I meant." Wu Lanchu was confused. "Let's first listen to what the fortune teller says."
Liang Jing looked at Lin Zhixian: "Do I need to ask? Chen Jinghao was out having fun and ended up having an illegitimate child. If people knew about this, which daughter from a good family would be willing to marry him? Of course, he wanted to tie you up while you knew nothing."
"Liang Jing, calm down first, okay?" Wu Lanchu begged, as if it was Liang Jing instead of her who was betrayed.
Liang Jing said angrily: "Lan Chu, if you still think of me as a good sister, don't stop me this time. I must teach this bastard a lesson!"
Wu Lanchu coaxed, "Okay, I won't stop you. If you want to hit someone, I'll hand you a stick. If you want to kill someone, I'll hand you a knife. This time, I will definitely not stop you."
Only then did Liang Jing suppress her anger.
Wu Lanchu looked at Lin Zhixian and said, "God of divination, is Jinghao, like Liang Jing said, afraid that no one would be willing to marry him and help him raise his illegitimate child, so he proposed to me?"
Lin Zhixian said, "He is not afraid of having no one to marry him, but he is afraid that you, a fool, will know the truth and refuse to marry him. Then he will have no better person to help him raise his beloved son, and he and his beloved girl will not be able to enjoy life to their heart's content."
"What do you mean?" Liang Jing was about to explode again.
Lin Zhixian glanced at Wu Lanchu sympathetically, "Yes, in fact, Chen Jinghao has already moved on to someone else, and now he has no feelings for you at all. The reason why he didn't break up with you is because you are good-looking, have a good job, and come from a good family, and you are devoted to him. And the woman he likes, Cheng Niannian, is only 18 years old this year. She comes from a very wealthy family and has very strict family education. She is still studying in school. It is impossible for her to drop out of school for him, get married, and have children. Her family may also agree to let her get married and have children at this age, and may even take revenge on Chen Jinghao, so he must first find someone to help him raise his illegitimate child, and you are the best candidate."
Wu Lanchu sneered in anger: "Do I look like such a stupid person?"
"Of course you are not stupid. If he told you directly that it was his illegitimate child, you would naturally not agree. But what if he said it was the orphan of his good brother?"
"What?" Wu Lanchu was stunned.
Lin Zhixian said, "Chen Jinghao never thought about telling you the truth from the beginning to the end, because he knew you would never agree to that, so he planned to marry you first, and then take the child back. He made up a lie that his good brother and his wife died in a car accident, leaving a child without anyone to take care of him, and he wanted to take the child in. Then he lied to you with soft words and gentle voice. Although you were angry, you were soft-hearted and finally agreed to take in the child. The child was only a few months old, and you developed feelings for him as you took care of him. Later, you were unable to have children, so you raised the child as your own."
"That's not right. Lan Chu goes to the hospital for a physical examination every year and there has never been any problem. How could she not have a child? It's Chen Jinghao. He did something to Lan Chu, right?" Liang Jing gritted her teeth.
"No, he wouldn't do that to me." Wu Lanchu found it hard to accept.
Lin Zhixian shook his head: "He didn't do it to Miss Wu. He did it to himself. He got sterilized."
"How is this possible?" the grandmother exclaimed, "If a grown man gets a vasectomy, doesn't that mean he is no longer a man?"
Wu Lanchu felt a chill run down her spine: "In order to protect the interests of that illegitimate child, he was willing to sacrifice his own fertility. It seems that Cheng Niannian is his true love, right?"
"At this point, are you still harboring fantasies about that bastard?" Liang Jing was disappointed.
Wu Lanchu couldn't help shedding tears: "Ten years, Liang Jing, I have been with Chen Jinghao for ten years, how could he treat me like this!"
"What's ten years? How many men have become rich by relying on their wives and children, and then abandoned their wives to keep mistresses and third wives outside, and even let the fourth wife provoke the original wife. This kind of drama is played out in Hong Kong every day. Don't you see through it now? In this world, men are so reliable that even pigs can climb trees! Are you still not giving up?"
Liang Jing was disappointed that they could not make it: "Wu Lanchu, you are a girl of the new era in Hong Kong, not a woman trapped in the backyard of feudal society who can only cry. You are educated and have a job. You are excellent and capable. Even if you don't have Chen Jinghao, there are other excellent men for you to choose. Why do you have to be sad for such a man?"
Wu Lanchu smiled bitterly: "Liang Jing, I understand what you mean, but that was ten years of my youth and love."
Liang Jing looked at Wu Lanchu with heartache, and stopped blaming her. She only said angrily to Chen Jinghao: "You bastard."
"That..." The housewife at the side spoke timidly, and when she caught the eyes of Lin Zhixian and the other two, she said timidly: "The divination just now said that Cheng Niannian is only 18 years old, has a good family background, and is brought up in a strict family. Then why does she like Chen Jinghao and give birth to a child for him? For a woman to be willing to give birth to a child for him, she must love him very much, right? In this case, why doesn't she marry Chen Jinghao herself? As long as she is willing, her parents will definitely not be able to persuade her in the end."
Liang Jing sneered: "Why else? The rich lady doesn't fancy a poor boy like Chen Jinghao at all. She just wants to have fun with him, right?"
Lin Zhixian nodded: "Cheng Niannian does have a good family background and is well-educated. She has always been a good girl in front of her parents, but in fact she is very rebellious and unruly behind her parents' backs. Chen Jinghao is good-looking, sweet-mouthed and knows how to deal with things. She just wanted to play with him on a whim and never thought about being with him for a long time. Unexpectedly, she got pregnant. Cheng Niannian's physique was not good for abortion, so Chen Jinghao tricked her into giving birth to the child. In order to prevent the child from being taken away and having no connection with him from then on, Chen Jinghao took the child back to raise it himself. In this way, with the child in hand, no matter whether Cheng Niannian is willing to be with him in the future, Cheng Niannian will always give him some benefits. Cheng Niannian also didn't want her family to know about her absurd things, so as not to be punished by her family, so she agreed."
"What's more, Cheng Niannian has a mean nature. She finds it interesting to think that you were deceived into taking care of and educating her son, while she can pick fruits without any effort. Therefore, she agreed to Chen Jinghao's plan."
"How despicable, we are birds of the same feather!" Liang Jing gritted his teeth and pounded the table.
Lin Zhixian looked at Wu Lanchu: "If you married him without knowing anything, because you could never get pregnant, you would only have this child, and you would pour all your motherly love on him. That child was indeed close to you when he was young, but when he was seven years old, his biological mother came back, and Chen Jinghao took him to see his biological mother. Cheng Niannian was rich and beautiful, so the child recognized his biological mother, and the three of them united to hide it from you."
