Volume 1_Chapter 208: Pregnant

Since Jun Linche had said so, although the doctor was still very troubled, he ultimately did not dare to continue hiding it.

Thus, he stammered, "Reporting to the Villa Master, the Eldest Young Miss... she is pregnant."

The doctor only felt that his life was over.

After all, the Eldest Young Miss being pregnant before marriage was not a glorious matter, and now it had come out of his own mouth.

"Impossible."

"Impossible!"

As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Jun Linche and Jun Mengran retorted in unison.

Especially Jun Mengran; her stomach hurt so much that she almost wanted to roll on the ground, but she had to look up and glare angrily at the doctor, "You damn quack... how... how dare you slander me?"

She was not pregnant; how could she be pregnant?

She was just poisoned.

The doctor knelt down with a "thud," his face ashen, "This small one would not dare."

"Pfft—" Yun Qiyue snickered.

Jun Linche and Jun Mengran glared at Yun Qiyue at the same time, their eyes filled with malice.

What time was it, and this woman was still laughing.

Damn it.

"It's no use looking at me," Yun Qiyue shrugged, looking as if it were none of her business but clearly enjoying the show, "You were the ones who told the doctor to tell the truth; now that he has told the truth, you don't believe him. That's truly interesting."

"You—" Jun Linche was somewhat annoyed.

Yun Qiyue met his gaze without any fear, "The Villa Master doesn't need to think that I bribed him; I don't have that ability."

Upon hearing this, Jun Mengran was furious, and the words slipped out, "Yun Qiyue, it was clearly you who poisoned me; how could I be pregnant?"

"Go ask your man how you could be pregnant; how would I know?" Yun Qiyue had an expression of looking at a fool.

Upon hearing this, Jun Mengran was even angrier.

Perhaps it was because the pain was too great that she forgot to use her brain to think, and she actually pointed the finger directly at Yun Qiyue, "It must be that you poisoned my cup when you poured me fruit wine just now; there must be poison in my cup."

Saying this, Jun Mengran looked at the doctor, "Meng Dafu, go over and see if there is poison in my cup, and also the fruit wine..."

Jun Mengran's words made Jun Linche subconsciously look at Lady Shui.

But he saw that Lady Shui's expression remained indifferent, without any reaction, and his heart sank.

Connecting this to the fact that the maidservant in Mengran's courtyard had asked him to come here, and then looking at his own daughter's certainty that there was poison in the wine, how could Jun Linche not figure out what was going on?

But—

"Go."

Just one word was enough to explain Jun Linche's attitude at this moment.

Meng Dafu received the order and immediately scrambled up to test the fruit wine.

But after testing it, Meng Dafu's face turned sallow again.

However, this time, Meng Dafu didn't even need Yun Qiyue's reminder; after only a moment of hesitation, he said directly, "There is no poison in the wine."

He had also figured it out; he wouldn't please anyone either way, and seeing the situation, he had already angered the Eldest Young Miss, so there was no point in adding the title of a quack doctor, so he told the truth.

However, upon hearing this, Jun Mengran was furious, "Quack, you are clearly a quack; how could there be no poison in the wine? I clearly had people..."

"Ran'er!" Jun Linche spoke at the right time, preventing Jun Mengran from continuing.

Only then did Jun Mengran realize what she had said, and her face changed.

However, Yun Qiyue picked up where Jun Mengran left off, "You clearly had people poison the wine; is that what Miss Jun wanted to say?"

Jun Linche: "Miss Yun, stop spouting nonsense."

Saying this, his voice became a bit sharper, "Even if Miss Yun did not poison the wine, my daughter will not pursue the matter of you pushing her into the water, but this Villa Master must pursue—"

"How do you want to pursue it?"

Before Jun Linche could finish his words, a cold, deep voice cut in.

It was Ye Lanjue.

Ye Lanjue, who had been by the lotus pond, no one knew when he had left.

At this moment, Ye Lanjue was being pushed into the pavilion by Chen Feng.

Beside Ye Lanjue, there was an extra person, dressed in plain everyday clothes, looking like a middle-aged scholar.

Seeing Ye Lanjue, a clear trace of wariness flashed in Jun Linche's eyes.

But he still bit the bullet and stepped forward, "Regent, it was Miss Yun who pushed my daughter into the water..."

"But how did this King see her jump in herself?" Ye Lanjue interrupted Jun Linche's words lightly, his tone calm but carrying a deterrent force that made people shudder.

Jun Linche: "..."

Jun Mengran was anxious and hurriedly spoke to refute, "It's not like that, Brother Ye, I..."

"Do you take this King for blind?" Ye Lanjue looked at Jun Mengran, his voice calm and steady, yet it made people feel incomparably terrifying, full of oppression.

Jun Mengran's face turned even whiter, and the words she wanted to use to refute were swallowed back down.

And it was also at this moment that Jun Mengran suddenly remembered: where had Brother Ye gone when she was doing those things earlier?

Suddenly realizing this problem, Jun Mengran broke out in a cold sweat.

Could it be that he had seen it?

And Jun Linche naturally thought of this point at this moment, but right now, he had to defend his daughter.

"Regent, there must be some misunderstanding in this," Jun Linche said, "My daughter is so kind, how could she do such a thing?"

Ye Lanjue only stared coldly at Jun Linche, making Jun Linche unable to continue speaking himself.

Jun Linche's face was ugly, so he simply asked in a deep voice, "Does the Regent really intend to favor Miss Yun?"

His own daughter was better than Yun Qiyue in every way; why did Ye Lanjue choose Yun Qiyue?

Ye Lanjue curled his lips slightly, but the coldness in his eyes deepened, "This King protects his own Princess Consort; what is wrong with that?"

Jun Linche's face changed slightly, and he was about to speak.

Then, Ye Lanjue did not give him the chance, but looked at Jun Mengran.

"Just now, you said this King's Princess Consort poisoned you; is there such a thing?" Ye Lanjue asked.

Hearing Ye Lanjue say "this King's Princess Consort" one moment and "this King's Princess Consort" the next, Jun Mengran felt extremely sour in her heart.

Enduring this sourness, Jun Mengran said, "I drank the fruit wine she poured for me, and then I had a stomachache..."

Ye Lanjue nodded and then looked at the middle-aged man beside him, "Doctor Yin, go take a look."

Yin!?

Could it be Doctor Yin Zhong?

Yin Zhong, although he didn't have the ability to bring the dead back to life, was quite famous in various countries.

Everyone knew that Doctor Yin did not belong to any country and liked to travel between countries.

Now, he had actually arrived at Junyue Villa so easily, and at such a time.

Jun Linche's eyes darkened as he looked at Jun Mengran; sure enough, Jun Mengran's face was pale, and there was panic in her eyes.

Without thinking, Jun Linche raised his hand.

With a "boom," the table was blasted to pieces.

Lady Shui, supported by Zhu Qing, quickly dodged, thus avoiding being affected, but everything on the table was destroyed along with the table, leaving the ground in a mess.

Seeing this, Jun Linche finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, there would be no evidence unfavorable to Ran'er.

But just at this moment, Lady Shui spoke.

"Doctor Yin..."
