Chapter 8
Qin Se handed the pregnancy test report to her. “Of course, it’s true. Look, this is the hospital pregnancy test report. The baby is barely one month old. There is a saying that a pregnancy of less than three months should not be disclosed. However, today is your birthday, and it’s such a great occasion. I think there is nothing better than this gift. Mom and Dad, do both of you agree?”
Qin Se’s words were very presentable and convincing, and it was hard not to believe her words.
It was not that Qin Se hadn’t thought of exposing Shen Rui’s sexual tendency today and subsequently bring disgrace to the Shen family, dropping their pride to the ground and shattering it into pieces.
But then, she had thought, why should she do that? The Shen family had tortured her for two years. Why should she let them off the hook easily?
Moreover, if she brought shame to the family, they would indeed get a divorce, but she would walk away penniless.
She had to think for herself. Not only did she want the money, but she also wanted the Shen family to know no peace.
Thus, she had faked her pregnancy. From now on, she wanted to dominate the Shen family.
At long last, Wang Qiuxia showed a smile to Qin Se for the first time.
Her eyes were fixed on Qin Se’s belly, and she nodded. “Yes, that’s true. You’re right. There is nothing better than this gift. You... sit down, sit down quickly... you should have said so earlier.”
Even Shen Zhiguo’s face, which was always serious, showed a smile. He no longer looked at Qin Se contemptuously.
Qin Se reached down and caressed her belly. “I wanted to give you a surprise so that you and Dad could be happy. This baby is the outcome of your blessing. Hence, I thought to take advantage of today and tell you the news so that the baby can share your good fortune...”
Qin Se suddenly realized that somehow, the surroundings had gone quiet.
She thought she had said something wrong, but then she saw Wang Qiuxia and the rest of the guests staring at someplace behind her back. Qin Se slowly turned around, and she saw Gu Jingyuan standing not too far from her as he stared at her meaningfully.
Qin Se’s face instantly went pale. Both her stomach and legs quivered, and her heart almost jumped out from her chest.
It was over!
Gu Jingyuan must have heard everything.
Why was he even here?! Wang Qiuxia’s birthday wasn’t an event worthy of a giant like him.
How would he punish her?
Those questions immediately kept on popping up in Qin Se’s mind.
Wang Qiuxia was also dumbfounded. She became so excited that she couldn’t even finish a complete sentence, and she moved her fat ass over to his side and said with a trembling voice, “Mr... Mr. Gu, you... have you come to visit…?”
Wang Qiuxia might claim in front of everyone that Gu Jingyuan was her cousin. However, when she met the real person, she was afraid to call him as such.
Gu Jingyuan’s thin lips moved a little. “Just now, I overheard that Young Lady Shen is pregnant. Congratulations!”
