What?
I was completely stunned!
Is Gu Yutian pregnant?
I froze, completely stunned, struggling to process this earth-shattering news!
It took me a while to regain my senses and I looked at Gu Yanqing and asked, "Does she... know who the child's father is?"
Upon hearing this question, Gu Yanqing's expression became more terrifying than that of Yama, the King of Hell.
I suddenly realized how outrageous this problem was.
So I immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
The question just popped into my head in that instant, and I blurted it out.
Gu Yutian was gang-raped, so she definitely doesn't know who the father of the child is, unless she raises the fetus and does a paternity test.
But how could she be pregnant with a rapist's child!
This will be her lifelong nightmare and shame.
She really succeeded in ruining herself.
Even if you get rid of the child, you will suffer a double blow to your body and mind, and you will still feel a sharp pain whenever you think about it in the future.
The lesson and the price paid were far more painful than imprisonment.
She must regret her actions and hate me to the core.
I looked at Gu Yanqing.
He stared at me with a sinister look, clearly blaming me for his sister's misfortune.
If I didn't have strong willpower and a ruthless heart, I would really feel guilty and ashamed right now.
“Gu Yanqing, I sympathize with her plight, but she was the one who started it all. If I hadn’t been lucky, I would be the one suffering all this pain right now.”
"But since you found out, you could have simply poured out the drink. Why did you frame her!"
Gu Yanqing's sudden, sharp question sent alarm bells ringing in my head once again.
He's getting more and more cunning. Even in these seemingly casual conversations, he's setting traps for me to fall into.
We were in love once, and I even saved his life. How could he be so cruel?
It's true what they say: if you can't have it, destroy it.
"Gu Yanqing, you don't need to try to trick me. If you have any complaints, save them for the courtroom. I sympathize with your sister's situation, but it wasn't my fault. Your attempts to morally blackmail me won't work."
After saying those words, I left without looking back.

When I arrived at Li Yunwei's house, she opened the door for me while coughing.
I went inside, put down the things I was carrying, turned to my best friend who had curled up back on the sofa, and asked with concern, "Are you feeling better today? Did you go for another injection?"
Li Yunwei shook her head and said in a hoarse voice, "Water, hot water."
I quickly poured her a cup of hot water and handed it to her.
After drinking it, she sighed and wailed, "Being sick is so awful..."
"Why don't you go home? It's better to have someone take care of you than to try to tough it out on your own," I advised with concern.
"I went back home yesterday and stayed for a while. My mom kept nagging me, telling me to drink water, take medicine, and have some kind of nourishing soup. It's so annoying!"
You are living in a world of blessings but don't know it.
Thinking about it, I've long forgotten what it felt like to be loved and cared for by my mother.
Li Yunwei glanced at me, "Your Chairman Su is still away on his business trip? You still have time to come see me..."
"I just got back. We met downstairs at my company."
Li Yunwei was taken aback. "Then you didn't go with him?"
Am I the kind of person who values romantic relationships more than friendships?
Li Yunwei immediately smiled happily.
Upon learning that she hadn't eaten dinner yet, I got up and went to her kitchen. After searching around, I cooked her a vegetable and lean meat porridge and stir-fried two side dishes.
Wrapped in a blanket, she leaned against the kitchen doorway and chatted with me, "Is your case with Gu Yutian going to trial the day after tomorrow?"
Speaking of this, I remembered Gu Yanqing coming to find me, and my eyes widened suddenly as I turned to look at her.
"Weiwei, I have something to tell you."
"What's up?"
"Gu Yutian is pregnant."
"What?!"
Sure enough, Li Yunwei reacted much like I did.
"She's pregnant with that rapist's child? Didn't they say there were two thugs involved? Then this..."
Li Yunwei had the same thought as me.
I stirred the porridge in the pot and said calmly, "She couldn't have given birth to that child, so it doesn't matter whose it is. Gu Yanqing came to me wanting me to let go and accept a settlement, but the case has reached this point. I've consulted with a lawyer, and whether or not we can reach an out-of-court settlement is no longer important."
"Why should we settle? She caused this whole thing. If she's not unlucky, then you are." Li Yun said angrily, her voice slightly hoarse, sharing the same thought as me.
"But... wouldn't I be too cold-blooded if I were this ruthless?" I pondered this all the way, still feeling somewhat hesitant.
"The problem is, if you're not this ruthless, they won't appreciate your kindness, so why bother?"
Li Yunwei's words woke me up.
Indeed, even if I agree to a settlement now, the Gu family won't appreciate my efforts; they'll only think I'm guilty and ashamed.
With my best friend's support, I felt at ease again.
I didn't even dare tell Su Shenglin about these things, because I was afraid he would worry about me and also afraid he would think I had a dark side.
Fortunately, I still have my best friend to confide in.
While I was having dinner with Li Yunwei, Su Shenglin called.
I thought he couldn't wait any longer, and I felt shy when I answered the phone. But he said apologetically, "I got a call from home. My father isn't feeling well, so I have to go back to Suyuan. I'm afraid I won't have time to spend with you tonight."
Upon hearing this, I immediately asked, "Is your grandfather feeling unwell?"
"Um."
"Then you should go back now, we'll talk later."
After hanging up the phone, Li Yunwei looked at me with a mischievous smile and teased, "It's all my fault. I ruined your chance to go on a date after you were separated for several days."
