It seems that before, she was just being stubborn and pretending to be indifferent in order to get his attention.
As for the engagement, it was definitely fabricated.
She must have heard me say that we were engaged, and that's why she started making things up too.
Yes, that must be it!
Thinking of all this, Qi Mingyu subconsciously forgot that when Chi Yu looked at him, all he saw in her eyes was deep disdain.
At this moment, he felt inexplicably good. Even the embarrassment from wetting his pants earlier had completely vanished.
"Father, Zhuang Zilan is dead, so be it. The Xue family didn't really like her being alive anyway."
Old Qi felt very uncomfortable after hearing his cold-blooded words.
He subconsciously replied, "She is your sister-in-law, your aunt's cousin, and she was even pregnant with your child."
Qi Mingyu hadn't expected his father to say that, so he immediately lowered his eyes and said:
"I owe a debt to her in my current predicament."
When you came to persuade me to give her a biological child, I already thought the suggestion was absurd.
If she hadn't been there for you, weeping uncontrollably, as if I were some heinous criminal not to agree, how could I possibly have agreed?
If this hadn't happened, how could I and Mrs. Chi have gotten divorced?
If we hadn't gotten a divorce, our family wouldn't be facing so many problems now. We could still live a wonderful life like before.
Although they are not extremely wealthy, they are among the top families in our Qijia Village.
The money the people of Chijia'ao earned from charcoal last year will surely be saved up to fund my trip to the imperial examinations.
Now, with my wife and children in my arms, how could I have ended up in this situation?
Old Man Qi was at a loss for words when he heard these excuses.
If it wasn't his own will, could anyone force him?
Now they're shifting all the blame onto Zilan and the others, making it sound like they forced him.
Who is it that, every time they come back from their day off, makes excuses to have them block Chi Shi from entering, and then can't wait to sneak into Zi Lan's room?
At that time, he didn't seem unwilling at all; he was clearly very happy to do so!
Speechless, Old Man Qi intended to leave as darkness fell and he heard Doctor Lu's footsteps outside.
But then I thought, if I leave, how will my son deal with his bodily functions?
Now, apart from the people who take care of him and his wife, everyone else in the village is ordered to stay at home.
The doctor said that everyone in the village would have to be confined for at least a month.
If they want to work in the fields, that's not impossible.
Every day, after he has examined us and confirmed that there are no problems, we go over in batches.
Thinking about all this, Old Man Qi simply sat down at the foot of the bed.
He knew that his son's reputation was very important!
If Dr. Lu asks later why there's a smell of urine in this room...
He took the blame upon himself.
They said he was old and had been buried underground during the earthquake, which injured him and made him somewhat unable to control himself.
I came to see my son just now, and in my excitement, I peed.
Regardless of whether Dr. Lu can detect it or not, he can just stick to his own version of events.
Whether outsiders believe it or not, what does that have to do with them?
He's old enough that he doesn't need to worry about saving face.
But not my son!
He's destined to become a high-ranking official and make a lot of money!
When Doctor Lu came over, he was carrying a lantern.
