If it weren't for Zhuang Zilan, he would still have a wife and children and be living a comfortable life.
And why would they go out? They're all afraid of being secretly pointed at and gossiped about.
Therefore, when the weather got colder and colder, to the point that Zhuang Zilan couldn't stand it and suggested going back to her parents' home, he was truly relieved.
At that time, he wished Zhuang Zilan would disappear from his life forever.
After receiving news from Zhuang Zilan's family that she had frozen to death, he felt nothing but relief.
In his view, once a person is dead, even if someone investigates these matters again, as long as he doesn't admit it, there will be no way to prove it.
It is said that the dead should be respected, and people will subconsciously avoid talking about these things.
Naturally, they wouldn't spread these things.
Moreover, as long as you have the ability, none of these things will be a problem.
Anyway, Chi has already divorced, so the child has nothing to do with him anymore, and the key person, his widowed sister-in-law, is also dead.
For example, why was his classmate Zhong Wenming willing to let him live in the Zhong family's house, and then pay for all his food, drink and other expenses?
Then, they first introduced the girl from the second wife's family. When that didn't work out, they introduced the girl from the Xue family.
In the end, isn't it all about valuing his future and wanting to tie him to their cause?
When the Xue family married off their daughter, they promised to give money, a house, and even cover all the household expenses. What were they after?
Isn't it just that he has a bright future and no woman by his side? A marriage alliance between the two families will bind them even more firmly.
But if Zhuang Zilan were still alive, all of this would be different.
The Xue family would then wonder if he still had feelings for his widowed sister-in-law.
No matter how much he assured them, the other party would always have some reservations.
In addition, once outsiders know about his divorce, they will no longer have any scruples and may even cause a huge uproar.
In this world, whether they are scholars or officials, everyone values their reputation.
Once his reputation is ruined, no matter how capable he is in the future, his career will be limited.
Thinking about all this, Qi Mingyu's expression became extremely ugly.
He desperately hoped that his mother had been hit in the head and was just talking nonsense.
In fact, Zhuang Zilan was already dead!
Shen was in the ruins, unaware of her son's thoughts, and unable to see his face, which was almost distorted.
Hearing the impatience in his words, and fearing she would be cursed to death, she firmly said:
"Zilan is not dead, she is still alive."
Not only that, she's also pregnant with your child; by the way, she's been pregnant for over three months now.
Qi Mingyu was furious when he heard this.
More than three months? It's still a few days before February, which means you conceived in mid-October last year?
After his divorce from Mrs. Chi, he had no further dealings with his widowed sister-in-law.
The only time was around October.
Because of his difficult circumstances and the large amount of money he owed to his clansmen, he was in a bad mood and went out to have some drinks with his classmates.
He had no recollection of how he got home or how he became involved with his widowed sister-in-law.
All he knew was that when he woke up the next day, facing his blushing widowed sister-in-law, he no longer embraced her as he used to, talking to her about their shared dreams for the future.
Instead, he immediately turned pale, cursed her as shameless, and went straight back to the county school.
No, regardless of whether Zhuang Zilan is dead or pregnant, he will not admit it.
He was convinced that the other person was dead.
As for the child, what does that have to do with him?
Chi was his lawfully wedded wife, who treated him so well and was also very beautiful.
He could abandon the child she gave birth to, so who does Zhuang Zilan think she is?
Is a widow worthy of him?
