Chapter 121: Should I Abandon the Plan?

~11 min read 2,061 words

Who can accept that their marriage alliance partner is pregnant and still in love with them?

And this isn't an emotionless alliance; it's a person Nan Gong Jue himself likes!

That makes it utterly unacceptable.

Not to mention Nan Gong Jue, even Nan Gong Yu, as his older brother, is extremely angry about this!

Qiao An, this woman, looks petite, sweet and cute, like a harmless good animal.

Who would have known her mind is so vicious; how dare she!

Even in an ordinary family, no one could accept this; it's an absolute disgrace.

Song Huan Yan pressed her lips together, inhaled deeply, and, clearly feeling guilty, said, "I'm sorry. At first I didn't know her marriage alliance partner was Nan Gong Jue. I only learned it at that evening banquet."

"Hmm." Nan Gong Yu nodded, but still couldn't fully suppress his temper, his tone still a bit heavy, and said, "Then why didn't you speak up as soon as you found out? In this way, my second brother is as foolish as a brainless fool, has poor judgment, and most importantly, has become such a Big Turtle. Fortunately the Marriage Certificate was fake, and fortunately I have some influence; otherwise… if it were a real marriage, what would we do, Song Huan Yan?"

"Are you blaming me, Sir?" Song Huan Yan looked straight at him.

Nan Gong Yu slightly furrowed his brows, finally suppressing the anger he hadn't been able to control.

Song Huan Yan remained silent.

A moment later, Nan Gong Yu sighed and said, "I'm indeed angry, no, extremely angry."

As he spoke, his fist tightened.

It was the first time he made a somewhat "indecent" lip‑licking gesture in front of Song Huan Yan, probably because he didn't know what to say.

Song Huan Yan watched him very calmly.

"After all, he's my own younger brother; this kind of thing is too bullying. Song Huan Yan clearly knew…"

At this point, Nan Gong Yu paused, suppressed his temper again, and inhaled deeply.

But he quickly regained his composure and said, "However… strictly speaking, I can't blame you. You have the right not to speak. The blame falls only on Nan Gong Jue himself. Love Brain, no discernment. He trusted others too much, didn't even do any background check, and blindly believed his so‑called love and feelings."

Song Huan Yan said, "So you're blaming me, yet also not blaming me?"

Nan Gong Yu inhaled deeply and finally said, "There must be a reason you didn't speak. Otherwise, you wouldn't be the type to wait and watch others become a laughing stock."

In fact, Song Huan Yan's attitude had already made it clear, yet even under these circumstances Nan Gong Jue didn't investigate on his own.

Going back and forth, it's truly both blameworthy and not blameworthy, blameable yet unblameable.

Song Huan Yan looked into the man's deep eyes and said, "I'm truly sorry. The child in her womb… is Qin Zi Mo's seed."

"What?" Nan Gong Yu was stunned by the words and only recovered after a while.

Song Huan Yan continued, "But the two of them don't know that I actually know everything. I pretended not to know and even lifted them to the clouds because I wanted to make them fall from heaven to hell. Let them reap fame and fortune, think they've transcended their class and become superior, and then expose them completely! Because it was that easy to tidy them up, I felt it wasn't enough, and I wasn't satisfied."

Nan Gong Yu said nothing.

Song Huan Yan said, "The reason I didn't tell Nan Gong Jue directly is that I feared he would, for the sake of face, stop my subsequent plan to expose them. I also have selfish motives. For that, I'm sorry."

For a moment, Nan Gong Yu didn't know what to say.

He pondered carefully and then said, "I understand. You don't need to apologize; it's appropriate. Having this thought is correct."

Moreover, on the matchmaking day, Song Huan Yan had already said it, just not explicitly; the twists, the melodramatic disgust, were probably very complicated.

She somehow endured such a humiliating disgrace, remained unflustered, and calmly devised a revenge plan.

During that time, no one knew what emotional burden she bore.

After that, neither spoke; the carriage was utterly silent.

Meng Changfeng, who had heard roughly from the front, was also shocked and remained silent.

This matter truly puts people in a dilemma.

A moment later, Song Huan Yan asked first, "Sir, what are your thoughts and opinions? Should I abandon the original plan?"

Nan Gong Yu looked at her and said, "If I say give up, would you give up?"

Song Huan Yan stared at him deeply for a long while, then said, "Before I might not have, but now… I will… seriously consider it; eighty percent, I'll give up. But I need some time… to convince myself."

Nan Gong Yu also stared at her, "Because of me."

Song Huan Yan nodded, "Hmm, because of you."

Nan Gong Yu suddenly felt an indescribable feeling, reached out and pulled her into his arms, sighing, "Huan Yan, you truly leave me helpless."

Song Huan Yan quietly nestled in his embrace, saying nothing.

The carriage moved on a bit more, and Nan Gong Yu finally spoke, "Nan Gong Jue won't object. Compared to hatred, face isn't important; we must give the despicable ones the severest punishment, otherwise it's truly too cheap for them!"

Hearing him say that, Song Huan Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt quite happy.

So, he thought the same.

That's great!

Only I don't know what Nan Gong Jue will think.

Soon the convoy left the Bieshu area; there were many nearby hotels and teahouses.

The group entered a hotel and booked a private room.

After sitting down, Nan Gong Yu finally sent the video to Nan Gong Jue.

Nan Gong Jue clicked open.

Qiao An was grabbed by a bodyguard, standing there like a criminal.

She truly is a criminal!

When Nan Gong Jue opened the video, Qiao An said, "What is that? Song Huan Yan, what did you send my husband? You're framing me! I don't admit it, I don't!"

Song Huan Yan turned her gaze to her, "Framed? Want me to call a doctor for you right now?"

Qiao An, stubborn as a dead duck, retorted, "Even if you call one, you bribed them beforehand! You're so powerful, you could buy off doctors from all of Kyoto, the whole nation!"

Meanwhile, Nan Gong Jue had finished watching the video; his complexion was extremely dark, yet his lips were unusually pale.

Is this his ridiculous, pitiful love and pampering?

Thinking of what he did for Qiao An, he finds it both disgusting and laughable.

That candy from when I was little… is it still candy?

It's poison, right!

How does she even dare?

She's pregnant yet still accepts a Marriage Alliance, falls in love with him, and rightfully enjoys every bit of his pampering!

She even told the doctor that after terminating the pregnancy, she still wants a membrane repair.

What does she think he is?

Without waiting for Song Huan Yan to speak, Nan Gong Jue stood up, "Then go abroad, go abroad now to see a doctor! No one can be bribed in advance!"

He looked at Qiao An and became calm instead.

Qiao An's pupils contracted sharply, "What did she show you? Do you really believe it? How could I possibly do such a thing? Don't be fooled by her! Going abroad won't work either! Your older brother's reach is limitless; bribing foreign doctors isn't surprising! The two of them just want to split us apart!"

As soon as Qiao An finished speaking, Nan Gong Jue stepped forward, raised his hand and slapped her.

Leaving Qiao An dazed.

He has always been so gentle and considerate toward her.

Now… he actually hits her?

"Husband, everything I said is true! Your older brother and his spouse, in order to split us up, will go as far as setting traps, will spare no cost, bribing doctors worldwide—what's the big deal? Even the Marriage Certificate they arranged for us is fake!"

Nan Gong Jue fell silent, turned his gaze toward Nan Gong Yu.

Nan Gong Yu also remained silent.

At this moment, Sang Wan said, "Qiao An, how shameless are you? Do you think you're the only woman in the world? Is Nan Gong Jue only able to be with you? And bribing doctors worldwide just to split you two apart—have you been acting in too many dramas?"

Nan Gong Jue opened a video and showed it to Qiao An, "Do you dare say the person in this isn't you? Aborting the child and then having a membrane repair! Your step‑by‑step plan is flawless! Not even using you as a spy would be a waste!"

Qiao An naturally denied, shaking her head frantically, "It's not me! This is fake, fabricated! They've always opposed us being together, you know how much they've targeted me. Your older brother even wants to kick you out of the family because of this, what else can't he do? It's just a forged video, easy for him!"

Qiao An bit down hard, refusing to admit it even if it meant death.

She even counter‑attacked, saying that with Song Huan Yan's and Nan Gong Yu's abilities, they could bribe all doctors, and the video could be fabricated.

Because she spoke so sincerely and still wouldn't admit it even to death, it truly made people unable to tell for a moment.

If she dares to claim that all doctors have been bribed, then doctors seem useless.

"Fine, you don't shed a tear even at a coffin. Release her first, then drive her out." said Song Huan Yan.

After speaking, he looked at Nan Gong Jue, "I have something else to discuss with you alone."

Qiao An shouted, "Song Huan Yan, what exactly are you trying to do? Do you really want both the older brother and the younger brother?"

Song Huan Yan frowned.

Nan Gong Yu said coldly, "Filthy language! Drive her out!"

Qiao An was dragged out.

Song Huan Yan stood up, "Come with me."

The hotel private room had a lounge, and the lounge was a separate room.

Nan Gong Jue entered the lounge with her.

Song Huan Yan pursed his lips, "Add me, and I'll send you something."

Nan Gong Jue was shocked and added Song Huan Yan.

Song Huan Yan sent some to him.

After watching, Nan Gong Jue's eyes turned even more blood‑red.

Song Huan Yan didn't dare to send evidence that was too hurtful or disgusting.

She only sent the initial chat logs between Qiao An and Qin Zi Mo, which were all flirtatious messages, plus the photos they exchanged, including nude pictures.

Nan Gong Jue was also deeply shocked for a long time before saying, "Is that your ex‑boyfriend? And you've been hooking up for a long time!"

Song Huan Yan nodded.

Nan Gong Jue, shocked and angry, "What does this mean? Why tell me only when it gets to this point? Are you happy seeing me as a Big Turtle?"

Song Huan Yan looked at him, "I… actually have no obligation to tell you, right?"

Nan Gong Jue clenched his teeth until they cracked, then self‑mocked, "Yes, I'm stupid!"

Song Huan Yan sighed, "I can't blame you entirely. Though I have no duty to tell you, I also blame myself; indeed, I should also blame myself."

For a moment, Nan Gong Jue didn't know what to say, and he seemed to lose all vitality instantly.

Can he truly blame Song Huan Yan completely?

Obviously… cannot.

She has the right not to speak, and could even never speak.

Moreover, when Song Huan Yan targeted Qiao An before, he also targeted Song Huan Yan for that, giving her no good face or kind words.

Nan Gong Jue was deeply defeated.

Song Huan Yan explained why she hadn't spoken, also revealed her plan, then said, "I held back for this reason, which is why I didn't say earlier. So, what's your… thought?"

Nan Gong Jue, exhausted and weak, said, "I don't know."

The impact of this matter on him was overwhelming; he truly… couldn't recover his mind for a while, and didn't dare to think it through.
