Chapter 825 - 177: Not Done by Me
If Kong’s really is pregnant, Pei Wenli is doomed to bear the hat of the unfilial son, as one couldn’t simply accuse Kong’s of infidelity, claiming that the child belongs to another man from her private affairs.
Pei Wenli clenched his teeth in anger and annoyance. His mother had suddenly passed away, leaving behind so many troubles, especially after he withdrew the lawsuit. Pei Qin and the others spread rumors, saying he was selling out his mother for money. He had been the talk of the town before and after the New Year, labeled as unfilial. If Kong’s was pregnant at this time, the accusation of his unfilial conduct would be set in stone, and Pei Qin and her company would certainly strike again.
Casting a glance at Kong’s, Pei Wenli’s face darkened as he commanded in a cold voice, "Abort it!"
Kong’s eyes widened in shock, "It might not be true!"
Pei Wenli’s face twisted, "True or not, abort it!" During the New Year period, as he listened to those rumors outside, he was excessively irritated and resentful. A defiant fire was always burning in his heart. At night, he would feel a hazy desire and ended up sharing a bed with Kong’s. It was too sinister! It had to be related to Pei Qin and her scheming!
Kong’s face turned deathly pale, her lips trembling, "I... I may have just eaten something bad," she said, yet without any conviction in her voice, because her period was already a few days late. She knew that having intercourse discreetly during the mourning period wasn’t problematic, but being pregnant would have others pointing at her spine, and she would bear the sin of filial impropriety. Yet it was a pregnancy she had finally achieved after so much difficulty...
Pei Wenli took her to Grandma Kong’s house with a sullen face.
Seeing her daughter’s complexion, Grandma Kong pulled her into the room to inquire and immediately began to cry, fuming at her, "Why did you make such a foolish mistake at this time!? Even if he was indiscreet, you should have advised him, not to indulge with him! If you’re pregnant now, the one to bear the blame will surely be you!"
