"It's not like I can't go back to the Feng family with the two babies in my belly. Grandma loves me very much, and she's counting the days until I go back!" Hua Qingcheng's voice was gentle and melodious, but with a hint of provocation, making the whole atmosphere tense.
Her words were like a bombshell, sending shockwaves through the luxurious villa. Jiang Shang and Lin Wanru, who had been hiding in the shadows, preparing to surprise their daughter-in-law, could no longer remain calm and rushed out in a panic.
Jiang Shang's face was terribly gloomy, with sparks of anger flashing in his eyes. He walked straight towards his son Jiang Yunting, and without any hesitation, he raised his hand and slapped his son's forehead hard, making a crisp sound.
Jiang Yunting staggered a few steps due to the sudden attack, and a clear red mark immediately appeared on his forehead.
"You unfilial son!" Jiang Shang cried in anger. "How could you let Qingcheng take the child back to the Feng family? How would outsiders view our Jiang family? News of our Jiang family abusing their daughter-in-law would spread everywhere. Where would my parents put their dignity?"
Lin Wanru also chimed in, "Yun Ting, you've let us down so much! How could you be so irresponsible? Qingcheng is pregnant with twins, how could you let her suffer like this?"
"Dad, Mom, I..." Jiang Yunting covered his forehead which was hit by his biological father and tried to explain, but he was interrupted by Jiang Shang before he could finish his words.
"You don't have to say anything!" Jiang Shang said sternly, "From today on, you must reflect on your actions! If you can't solve this problem, don't come back to this family! We have a daughter-in-law and grandchildren, and that's enough for us!"
Hua Qingcheng was simply stunned by this couple who spoke without thinking. However, seeing her husband being misunderstood, Hua Qingcheng quickly opened her arms like a hen protecting her chicks and stood in front of Jiang Yunting.
"Dad, Mom, you misunderstood. Brother Jiang and I are fine! If you hit him again, I will take him back to the Feng family."
After hearing what Hua Qingcheng said, Jiang Shang and Lin Wanru looked at each other, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across their faces.
"Oh, Qingcheng, don't protect him. This brat is becoming more and more unreasonable." Jiang Shang said embarrassedly.
"Yes, Qingcheng, we just want him to cherish you more." Lin Wanru also echoed.
Hua Qingcheng smiled. She gently stroked her three-month pregnant belly and said, "Dad, Mom, I know you're doing this for our own good. But Brother Jiang is really good to me and the baby, so don't worry."
Jiang Yunting looked at Hua Qingcheng gratefully, then said to his parents, "Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will treat Qingcheng and the child well."
Seeing their son's sincere attitude, Jiang Shang and Lin Wanru did not pursue the matter any further.
"Okay, okay, today is Qingcheng's birthday, let's all be happy." Lin Wanru said, pulling Hua Qingcheng to the cake.
The family gathered around the cake and sang birthday songs. Hua Qingcheng closed her eyes, made a silent wish, and then blew out the candles.
Then, it was time for a happy celebration. Everyone ate cake and chatted in a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
