chapter 54

Ji Xuewei’s cry for help did not attract the attention of the old lady. But Zhang Xiu’e was very anxious when she heard Ji Xuewei’s cry for help, ‘My future daughter-in-law Ji Xuewei is pregnant now. If anything happens to her, my grandson…”

At the thought of this possibility, she quickly ran to the second floor, regardless of whether the noblewomen, who were sitting around her, were prestigious or not.

“What’s the matter? What happened upstairs?” The old lady Mrs. Qin asked the other people sitting next to her. Although she asked questions carelessly, she was in fact quite displeased, ‘It’s a shame that they should have made so much trouble at the engagement ceremony.’

And what the old lady didn’t know was that Ji Xuewei was not afraid of being disgraced, and she even wanted to make what happened known to all.

Hearing Ji Xuewei’s cry for help, the guests downstairs had different expressions. Qi Xiaoguang looked worried, Situ Yan curious, and Luo Xia agitated in secret.

Although Luo Xia did not have the experience of serving in the military intelligence office, she was very good at examining a man’s language and observing his countenance because she often participated in various military missions. ‘Although Ji Xuewei looks delicate, mild and simple-minded in front of all the guests, she is definitely more resourceful and sophisticated than most people. It’s really disgraceful to make trouble at this engagement ceremony. But even if something happens, the Qin family and the guests will not blame her for the trouble.’

Luo Xia squinted at that room upstairs, ‘Qin Zhenyang is really pitiful. It should have been a good thing for him to have a woman around him. But someone seems to hate his woman very much. The struggle between the sisters seems to be getting more and more interesting.’

Qin Zhenyang arrived at the room earlier than Qin Zheng. The door of this room was tightly locked. He had no key to open the door, so Qin Zhenyang had to kick it open. Then he was surprised at the scene in the room.

His wife was in good condition except her clothes are a little messy. His wife stood on the floor of the room, who seemed to be afraid. And Ji Xuewei was lying on the ground, looking miserable. There was a cut on her arm and some bruises on her cheek. The most frightening thing for Qin Zhenyang was that Ji Xuewei’s body was still bleeding to the ground. Even Qin Zhenyang could not help frowning at the scene.

Ji Xiaoli knew that Ji Xuewei would frame her. But she didn’t expect Ji Xuewei to be so vicious. Ji Xuewei first rushed to her, and then took advantage of her impatient thrust to fall towards the corner near the sofa. And Ji Xuewei’s choice of geographical location was just right. Because there was a vase and a highchair in the room. As she fell to the ground, the vase and the highchair fell to the ground. And the vase just hit her in the stomach. Then, her stomach shed a lot of blood.

The surveillance camera could not record the sound of the scene. So even if this room was equipped with camera, people would not be able to find out the truth. People could only see Ji Xiaoli pushing over her pregnant sister mercilessly, causing her sister’s abortion, in the surveillance video.

‘Ji Xuewei is really cruel.’

Ji Xiaoli smiled coldly, but she didn’t explain what happened to Qin Zhenyang. When she saw Qin Zhenyang rush first, she was happy, even if she did not know whether Qin Zhenyang would trust and protect her.

Then Qin Zheng, Zhang Xiu’e and Fang Youlan walked into the room one after another. The last person to enter this room was the old lady. At that time, even if Ji Xiaoli wanted to explain what happened at the moment, these people should not choose to trust her.

Looking at Ji Xuewei lying on the ground, very embarrassed, Qin Zheng turned pale. Even though he still loved Ji Xiaoli, he couldn’t be partial to her again, “Ji Xiaoli, why did Xuewei get hurt like this?”

No one would have thought that a woman would choose to suffer such pain just to frame another woman. But only Ji Xuewei knew that to prevent Ji Xiaoli from marrying into the Qin family, she had to endure such pain.

Ji Xiaoli looked at Qin Zheng disdainfully. She knew that the man she had loved for four years seemed to hate her very much.

‘Is Ji Xuewei pregnant with his child? If he knows that Ji Xuewei is not pregnant at all, he will be very disappointed.’

“If you want me to explain to you, I can only say that I didn’t do anything to hurt her. As for why she was hurt, you might as well ask your good wife. She knows best how she got hurt.”

Ji Xuewei grabbed Qin Zheng’s hand, and she kept crying, “Qin Zheng, don’t blame my sister. She just accidentally pushed me over. She didn’t do it on purpose. But the baby is innocent.”

At that moment, Ji Xuewei seemed like a poor mother who had just lost her child.

The old lady didn’t know that Ji Xuewei was pregnant. Hearing this, the old lady was a little surprised, “Who can tell me what’s going on? Is Qin Zheng’s wife pregnant?”

Zhang Xiu’e was very worried about Ji Xuewei’s body and stared at Ji Xiaoli cruelly, “Mom, I wanted to tell you about Ji Xuewei’s pregnancy three months later. After all, in the first three months, the fetus is unstable. But I didn’t expect Ji Xuewei to have such an accident. Anyway, Ji Xuewei is also my good daughter-in-law. She’s pregnant with your grandson. But Qin Zhenyang’s wife is so cruel, and did such a vicious thing. Xuewei is her sister. Even if they are not biologically related, they have been together for more than 20 years. She didn’t care about her family at all. This kind of woman can’t marry into our Qin family in any case.”

Hearing so many words from Zhang Xiu’e, Qin Zhenyang narrowed his eyes coldly, “Sister-in-law, stop talking nonsense. Xiaoli is my wife, so I don’t allow anyone to slander her. Do you have any evidence that Ji Xiaoli hurt her sister?”

“Evidence? Xuewei has been injured. Do I need to provide other evidence? Does Xuewei hurt herself so badly? Would she sacrifice her baby to frame her?” Zhang Xiu’e said discontentedly.

Fang Youlan knew that her daughter was not pregnant. Although she did not know that Ji Xuewei would do so in advance, she naturally did not want her daughter’s efforts to be in vain. She said reproachfully, “”Xiaoli, I know I’m more partial to Xuewei. But if you have any dissatisfaction with me, you can blame and scold me. Xuewei is pregnant, and how can you hurt a little life so cruelly? Don’t you think you’re too cruel?”

“Am I cruel?” Ji Xiaoli smiled coldly, “I know that no matter what I say now, you won’t believe me. In that case, I don’t have to explain it to you. If I knew the invitation was a trap, I would rather sleep at home than come to the engagement ceremony. Ha-ha, now I know what it feels like to be wronged.”

“Are you wronged?” Zhang Xiu’e was very angry, “As long as I’m still alive, you won’t be able to marry into the Qin family. I’m sure my mother-in-law will make the most sensible judgment.”

The old lady squinted at Ji Xiaoli. Although she was not satisfied with her eldest daughter-in-law making decisions for her, she really didn’t like the woman Qin Zhenyang brought according to what she knew. Qin Zhenyang frowned and looked at his mother. But the old lady gave him a warning look.

Looking at the interaction between mother and son, Ji Xiaoli felt very helpless, and she felt that no one here would trust her words. She laughed coldly, “Well, I didn’t want to marry into a rich and powerful family. I never had such a dream. In that case, I will never appear in front of you again.”

She stepped back a few steps. She did not look at Qin Zhenyang at all, then walked out of the room and went directly downstairs. Qin Zhenyang was about to go out with Ji Xiaoli when the old lady shrieked, “Zhenyang, you are not allowed to go with her. If you go out of this room, don’t go back to this family in the future.”

‘Such a woman is not qualified to marry Zhenyang.’ The old lady was trying to force her son to make a decision.

Seeing her friend go downstairs and leave directly, Qi Xiaoguang couldn’t help worrying. She intended to catch up with Ji Xiaoli and ask about the situation, but she was stopped by Mrs. Zhao, “What are you going to do? Today, you are just a guest of the Qin family. Even if something important happen here, it’s the Qin family’s business and has nothing to do with you. Don’t poke your nose into others’ business.”

Qi Xiaoguang immediately gave up the idea of looking for Ji Xiaoli. Her relationship with her mother-in-law has just been improved, so… She looked anxiously out the door, ‘I really don’t know what Xiaoli has gone through that makes her so callous.’

‘What’s more, Qin Zhenyang doesn’t leave with Ji Xiaoli. He is so thoughtless.’ Qi Xiaoguang was dissatisfied with Qin Zhenyang. But Mrs. Zhao looked at her with a warning look, so she could only sit quietly and continued to chat with the lady next to her.

At that time, there was a constant quarrel on the second floor.

“Mom, I know you’ve always disagreed with our marriage. But Xiaoli and I are married. Even if you and my dad have a problem with that, I won’t divorce her.” Qin Zhenyang was also worried about his wife, but his mother prevented him from looking for his wife.

The old lady sneered, “That woman’s charm is so great that you and Qin Zheng fall in love with her. You have just seen what such a woman has done. She was arrogant, vulgar and vicious, and she hurt her sister. If she marries into our Qin family, she will certainly make a big mistake. The Qin family is a distinguished family, so this kind of woman is absolutely not allowed to be married into the Qin family.”

Qin Zhenyang said sadly, “If you say that, I don’t want to contradict you. In the future, I’ll live outside with her. Out of sight, out of mind.”

“Qin Zhenyang, do you choose that woman or this family?” The old lady stared at Qin Zhenyang and asked sternly.

Qin Zhenyang smiled helplessly, “”I want both, but you won’t give me the chance. In this case, I can only choose Ji Xiaoli.”

The old lady knew her son was stubborn, but she didn’t expect her son to be so stubborn. She was not happy, but she thought that if her son did not want to leave the woman, she would try to make the woman leave her son.

At that time, she did not intend to continue this fight, “Zhenyang, you and Qin Zheng take Xuewei to the hospital. Don’t let her delay the best time for treatment.”

‘She might have had a miscarriage because of the severity of her injury.’ The old lady was very sad.

Qin Zhenyang took a look at Qin Zheng. He was always worried about his wife, so he didn’t want to stay here, “Mom, Qin Zheng can take her to the hospital alone. I’ll…”

“Do you want to go out and find that woman? Xuewei was so badly hurt by her. Even if you like her, she is unforgivable to do such a wicked thing. Don’t go to find her today. Go to the hospital with Qin Zheng first.” The old lady commanded Qin Zhenyang.

Qin Zhenyang sighed. Even if he was reluctant, he could only follow Qin Zheng to the hospital.

Qin Zheng went downstairs quickly holding the sick Ji Xuewei. The guests downstairs haven’t left the Qin family yet. Seeing this scene, they chatted.

“What happened upstairs?”

“The first one who left was the first daughter of Ji family. Now the one who is injured is the second daughter of Ji family. What’s more, the second daughter just called for help. Did the first daughter hurt her? The first daughter is so cruel.”

‘There was a quarrel just now, and the first daughter was splashed with some red wine. But the second daughter didn’t do it on purpose, and she apologized to the first daughter. Now the second daughter’s arms are covered with blood. It’s…”

Luo Xia naturally also saw Qin Zhenyang who now wore a bitter and helpless expression. She made a guess. Although she didn’t know exactly what happened upstairs, she already guessed most of it, ‘The most unfortunate person in this incident should be the first daughter of Ji family.’

Ji Xiaoli waited outside the door for a long time. She thought Qin Zhenyang would come out with her and comfort her. But Qin Zhenyang did not follow her out.

Ji Xiaoli was disappointed with Qin Zhenyang.

But Ji Xiaoli thought again, ‘The relationship between them is not impregnable because of our marriage. Moreover, the Qin family is such a distinguished family. How could I expect to marry into such a family?’ Her previous happiness seemed to have disappeared, and she felt very sad.

She turned off her cell phone directly. She called a taxi, but she didn’t know where to go. The villa was their home, but…

And at that time she couldn’t go back to the Ji family.

‘So where else could I go? Where is my home?’
