"No pregnant women have come to our door, but this morning, just as you were leaving for work, a child suddenly appeared at our gate."
Your mother-in-law and I went outside when we heard the baby crying. We saw a bundle, and inside the bundle was an infant.
Ouyang Zhenyu was somewhat surprised to hear this.
"But what does that have to do with me?"
Seeing his mother's suspicious attitude, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"Mom, you don't actually think that child is mine, do you?"
“We also wanted to believe that the child wasn’t yours, but there was a note in the bundle we found that said to give the child to Ouyang Zhenyu to raise.”
Listen to what you're saying. Is this something a normal person would say? If this child has nothing to do with you, why would you be entrusted with raising him/her?
Xiaoxue saw this note today, and then she saw that child had been crying all afternoon.
Ouyang Zhenyu became a little anxious upon hearing this. Although his wife had finished her postpartum confinement, she still suffered from some weakness after the severe bleeding during childbirth.
He was afraid that his wife would cry too much and cause something bad to happen.
"Mom, you should never suspect me, no matter who you suspect. Haven't I been clean and virtuous enough?"
"Xiaoxue is really something. Why can't she just ask me directly? I had to stand there crying by myself. Look at how pathetic she is."
Ouyang Zhenyu strode towards the next room, and amidst the child's cries, lifted the curtain and entered.
When I went inside, I saw Chen Ruixue sitting on the corner of the bed wiping away tears, while two little ones who had just learned to walk were trying their best to wipe away Chen Ruixue's tears with their hands.
Chen Ruixue held a little one in one arm, tears streaming down her face.
Upon seeing Ouyang Zhenyu walk in, Chen Ruixue immediately lowered her head.
She turned her body around while holding the two children.
Chen's mother was trying to persuade Chen Ruixue when she saw her son-in-law come in, and immediately glared at him angrily.
“Ouyang Zhenyu, explain to me where this child came from.”
My daughter risked her life to give birth to a son and a daughter for you.
And what have you done? You've been cheating on her with other women. Now you think you're so powerful that you dare to do whatever you want, right?
Although our Chen family has declined, we are by no means people who will be bullied.
I'm leaving now with Ruixue and our two children. You can stay and live with your child.
As Chen's mother spoke, she actually started to tidy up the clothes in the wardrobe.
Upon seeing this, Ouyang Zhenyu quickly pulled Chen's mother away.
"Mom, please don't do this. You haven't figured things out yet, why are you doing this?"
This is a classic case of hurting loved ones and pleasing enemies.
"Besides, I haven't figured anything out yet. If you say that, am I being wronged?"
Ouyang Zhenyu still doesn't understand what happened. A perfectly healthy child was dumped at his doorstep, and he was specifically asked to raise the child.
Anyone would be suspicious in this situation, so it's no wonder his wife and mother-in-law reacted this way.
"Fine, Ouyang Zhenyu, if you're a man, you should be able to take responsibility for your actions. You must give our Ruixue an explanation for what really happened."
If you don't explain yourself clearly now, I'm not done with you.
"Our family has benefited from your kindness, but if you bully my daughter, I won't let you off the hook either."
Ouyang Zhenyu hurriedly made a promise.
"Mom, please wait a moment while I figure things out."
"Investigate what exactly happened; you need to give me time to find out the details."
Grandma Ouyang hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Chen's mother away.
“Come on, let’s go to the next room. The child in the next room is crying. Let’s go help him.”
They forcefully pulled Chen's mother away, leaving the time for the couple.
Seeing his mother help him pull his mother-in-law away, Ouyang Zhenyu immediately took two steps forward, and the room became quiet.
But Chen Ruixue, in a fit of pique, completely ignored him and turned her back on him.
Chen Ruixue's shoulders were trembling as she cried.
Ouyang Zhenyu stepped forward and helplessly hugged the mother and her two children tightly from behind.
The two little ones clearly didn't know that their mother and father were angry; they thought their father was playing a game with them.
He immediately grinned and peeked out from his mother's arms.
"dad!"
"dad!"
Ouyang Zhenyu patted their little heads and rested his chin on his wife's shoulder from behind.
Chen Ruixue shook her shoulders forcefully, trying to push him away.
"Why are you holding the three of us? Go find your little lover."
There's another one of your daughters in the next room; don't come near us now.
Ouyang Zhenyu sighed, seeing his wife so angry, her voice hoarse and choked with sobs.
He gently turned his head and kissed her cheek. Chen Ruixue blushed, but the anger in her chest wouldn't dissipate.
"What are you doing? You've done something wrong, so you're trying to please us like this?"
Ouyang Zhenyu, indeed, I was the one who pursued you first, and I went through countless hardships to marry you.
But I'm a human being too. You can't torture me like this, you can't treat me like this.
If you really don't like me, you can tell me. I'm not the kind of person who clings on relentlessly. I can divorce you and leave.
But what am I supposed to do now that you're like this? What am I and the children supposed to do?
"Ouyang Zhenyu, you can't bully people like this."
Ouyang Zhenyu felt his wife struggling desperately and hugged her tightly.
He said in a low voice with a grin.
"Wife, do you really not trust your man at all?"
How did you come to the conclusion that the child was mine just by looking at him?
Besides that note, what other evidence proves that the child is mine?
We've been married for so long, do you think I'm that kind of person?
Chen Ruixue replied angrily.
"Do we need any more evidence? That note specifically names you as the one who wants the child."
I just gave birth, and as a mother, I know that no woman would abandon her child so easily.
Unless it's someone trustworthy, you wouldn't tell me that just anyone on the street heard of your name, Dean Ouyang, and dumped their child at our doorstep.
Do you think it's possible?
Ouyang Zhenyu sighed.
"Wife, I can assure you that I have never touched any other woman in my life except you."
I have my own bottom line, except when it comes to my own wife.
Otherwise, I would never have crossed that line!
Whether I am Ouyang Zhenyu or Jiang Tiecheng.
Now that I've married you, I will be devoted to you, our children, and our family!
Chen Ruixue was touched by these words; she knew what kind of person Ouyang Zhenyu was.
He doesn't make promises lightly, but once he does, he will do it earnestly.
It is precisely because of Ouyang Zhenyu's excellent qualities that she pursues him relentlessly.
