Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Yuning continued questioning Mrs. Xu by pointing out the loophole of the event that supposedly occurred that night.
“How would I know how the both of you did what you did? Anyway, all I know is that it was a good thing I walked in on you and my husband.” Mrs. Xu continued playing the victim although she realized that her argument was not logical at all. After all, she was pregnant and this was her trump card. “Jiang Yuning, you destroyed our marriage and you have broken up our happy family. I am not done with you yet. You are such a shameless woman.”
After she had spoken, Jiang Yuning did not refute her accusations. She just sighed and said, “Well, since things have already developed to this point, I guess there’s no point in hiding it any further. You are right. The relationship between Director Xu and I is indeed not as simple as it seems.”
“You—You are indeed a shrewd woman. You are asking to die—” Mrs. Xu yelled as she was extremely agitated.
Jiang Yuning suddenly smiled as she rubbed her lower abdomen. “Actually, since the truth is already out in the open, then I shall not hide anything anymore. Mrs. Xu, you are not the only one who is pregnant. Anyway, I will not be able to be an actress anymore because I am already pregnant so I guess it would be a good idea to just stay by Director Xu’s side. After all, he already told me that he was going to divorce you because he is sick of you being so fierce to him all the time. Besides that, he also likes that I am beautiful and so much younger than you are.” 1
Mrs. Xu could not help but widened her eyes in shock when she heard Jiang Yuning’s words.
“That is impossible!”
“Why is it impossible? Mrs. Xu, although I feel sorry for you, I am already pregnant with Director Xu’s baby, so I have to do what’s best for me and my baby. I have to start making plans for my baby. If you do not believe me, you can make a trip to my gynecologist together with me,” Jiang Yuning said.
“No, I am absolutely sure that is impossible. It is impossible for Xu to have any sort of sexual intercourse or physical touch with you. I keep tabs of his whereabouts all the time so I know that it is impossible for him to be out fooling around without my knowledge. Stop trying to lie to me!”
Mrs. Xu quickly refuted Jiang Yuning’s statement in her emotional state and she did not realize that she had contradicted herself.
“But—I am really pregnant—that night—”
“Don’t tell me that you found out you are pregnant when it has only been a week since the incident. Furthermore, even if you are really pregnant, the baby could not be Xu’s baby because he was drugged and unconscious that night so he definitely did not do anything with you. Who knows whose baby you are really carrying?”
Jiang Yuning could not help but laugh out loud when Mrs. Xu blurted out the truth in a moment of anger. “Thank you for finally telling us the truth, Mrs. Xu.” 1
When Mrs. Xu saw Jiang Yuning reaching out her hand to adjust the livestream, she suddenly realized that she had blurted out the truth. She pointed her finger at Jiang Yuning and started yelling, “You set me up?”
“Yes, I am not pregnant but I think it is clear to everyone, who was the one who had framed the other.”
“Everyone who has eyes and ears should know clearly by now. Mrs. Xu, you are the one who said that you hold a tight rein on Director Xu and that you keep tabs on his whereabouts so it was impossible for him to cheat on you. You are also the one to say that it was impossible for Director Xu to cheat on you that night because he was drugged and therefore, he was totally unconscious. You are the one who said everything, so how did I set you up?” Jiang Yuning picked up her cell phone and waved it in front of Mrs. Xu’s face. “Anyone who is watching this livestream can testify on my behalf.”
“Doctor! Doctor! My stomach hurts. My stomach is hurting so badly! Jiang Yuning, if anything happens to my child, I will make sure you pay for it.”
Jiang Yuning crossed her arms in front of her chest as she watched Mrs. Xu’s acting. She was not shocked as she had already anticipated that Mrs. Xu would react this way. Jiang Yuning turned around to look at the doctor and said, “Doctor, sorry to trouble you. Please take care of Mrs. Xu and the fetus and make sure that nothing happens to them. I will take care of all the medical expenses on their behalf.”
The doctor quickly performed a medical check on Mrs. Xu and then impatiently said, “Mrs. Xu, your fetus is very stable. There seems to be nothing wrong at all.”
“How is that possible? She—she is agitating me! How can the fetus be fine?” 2
“Don’t worry, the fetus is absolutely fine.” This time, the doctor did not take Mrs. Xu’s side anymore. Initially, the doctor had sided with Mrs. Xu because he thought that she was very pitiful to have encountered such a situation when she was pregnant. However, he had not expected Mrs. Xu to be the one setting Jiang Yuning up and framing her for something that she did not do.
When the doctor pulled the curtain aside, Jiang Yuning smiled and waved her hand. “Hello, Mrs. Xu.” 1
“Why are you still here?”
“I will be leaving now,” Jiang Yuning said as she looked at her watch. It was already lunchtime and she was already feeling hungry. “However, I just want you to know that my lawyer will be contacting you soon. I do feel sorry that you have to attend court sessions and be sued when you are pregnant, but judging from the situation that we are in right now, I don’t think that you care that much about your fetus anyway. Therefore, I no longer feel sorry for you anymore. Goodbye!”
Mrs. Xu sat on her bed as she grabbed the bedsheet tightly in her hands. She was so angry and frustrated, but she had no way to deal with Jiang Yuning and there was nothing that she could do about it anymore.
A piece of crap.
After successfully getting the truth out of Mrs. Xu, Jiang Yuning finally left Anning Hospital. The reporters and paparazzi waiting outside have already watched the livestream and they knew everything that had taken place inside the ward.
The truth was finally revealed! It turned out that Director Xu and his pregnant wife were the ones creating all the drama. Jiang Yuning did not have an extramarital affair with that director.
“Miss Jiang, is there anything that you would like to say to Mr. Lu Zongye?”
The reporters started swarming around Jiang Yuning, trying to get her comments but Jiang Yuning merely put on her sunglasses and waved them away. “There is nothing much that I would like to say. He is a scumbag and she is a bitch; they are a pair made in heaven. So, I hope that they will get engaged as soon as possible.” 1
The reporters wanted to get more information out of Jiang Yuning, but she had already gotten into her car and drove away. The twelve tall and muscular bodyguards who were standing nearby quickly ran up and held back the reporters, allowing Jiang Yuning to make her smooth escape.
Jiang Yuning knew that those bodyguards did not appear out of thin air. She was also clear that there were only two people who were capable of protecting her at the moment. The first one was her brother, Ku Jie and the other person was none other than Lu Jingzhi.
Obviously, this was the work of her man-god.
However, she did not know that her idol was not done yet, because Jiang Yuning did not witness what was about to happen next.
Two men dressed in black arrived at the maternity ward of Anning Hospital. They entered the room that Jiang Yuning had just been in.
“Mrs. Xu, we are lawyers representing the Lu family. The reason why we are here today is to get you to reveal the reason why you set up Miss Jiang and framed her. If you choose not to cooperate with us, then we will make sure that you and your husband will lose everything that you have. Besides that, all your brothers and sisters will also pay the price. Last but not least, we will also reveal the fact that you have been having an extramarital affair behind your husband’s back.”
Mrs. Xu was shocked when she heard what the men had just said. After all, no one knew that she had an extramarital affair. Lu Zongye wanted to frame Jiang Yuning, so who was the one wanting her to sell Lu Zongye out?
No matter who it was, Mrs. Xu knew what decision she had to make. If she told the truth and sold Lu Zongye out, all she had to do was to return him the money that she had already taken from him. However, if she were to offend whoever was backing Jiang Yuning up, she would risk losing everything that she had. She was not stupid.
As Jiang Yuning was driving home, Mrs. Xu who had just pretended that her stomach was hurting just a short while ago suddenly accepted an unofficial interview from the reporters. Mrs. Xu started apologizing to Jiang Yuning as she gave her statement to the press.
“I am really sorry for everything that has happened, Miss Jiang. In fact, one week ago, I already knew that Miss Jiang was innocent and that everything that happened at the hotel one week ago was pre-planned because Emperor Entertainment and Lu Zongye had paid my husband a big sum of money to put on this show. The purpose of the act was so that Miss Jiang’s would have a bad reputation and therefore, Lu Zongye would be able to annul his engagement so that he could get engaged to actress Huo Yuxi instead…”
Jiang Yuning had just parked her car in front of the villa when she received a video that was forwarded by Ku Jie. If things could be resolved so easily, why did she have to go all the way to the hospital today?
Forgiveness? Only children seek for forgiveness. Adults only plan their revenge.
Jiang Yuning kept her cell phone and was just about to enter the villa when she received a phone call from Lu Zongye.
“Jiang Yuning, are you for real? You got to be kidding me!”
Lu Zongye screamed over the other end of the line.
Jiang Yuning quickly hung up the phone as soon as she heard Lu Zongye’s words. He had already framed her so many times. Did he think that she would not dare to retaliate? Although they had known each other ever since they were young and they grew up together, all Jiang Yuning could remember was how evil Lu Zongye was.
As she thought about this scumbag, Jiang Yuning quickly made a phone call to Ku Jie. “Brother, let’s give Lu Zongye another surprise gift.” 1
“Alright, I will arrange it for you,” Ku Jie replied cheerfully on the other side of the line.
Everyone thought that the scandal and gossip had already come to an end when Mrs. Xu’s confession was released. The ugliness of mankind was not divided just because they are nobles or from different social circles.
Netizens started labeling Lu Zongye as the worst kind of scumbag that had ever existed in this world. In their opinion, he could not be any more disgusting than he already was.
However, later at 5.15 that evening, X Society suddenly released more news regarding Lu Zongye. X Society released countless numbers of intimate photographs of Lu Zongye and several female artistes. This thoroughly destroyed whatever image that Lu Zongye still had. 2
