He had to admit that not only was Shang Yao cunning, but she was also willing to risk it all.
Not only did she sleep with him, she even dared to say that she was pregnant. This was not only smearing Xiao Zheng's reputation. It was also smearing her own reputation.
One had to know that Shang Yao was a genuine virgin. Was she not afraid that she would not be able to get married and her reputation would be ruined?
On second thought, Shang Yao had been an idiot and a good-for-nothing for so many years, her psychological quality was evident. She probably did not care too much about the so-called reputation. As long as she could firmly grasp the power in her hands. This loss was not worth mentioning.
Shaking his head, Xiao Zheng could not help but rub his slightly stiff face. He quickly caught up with Shang Yao and tilted his head, "Miss Shang, even if you want to do this, can you at least inform me in advance? Don't you know that people can be scared to death by scaring others? "
When Shang Yao heard this, she shrugged her shoulders in a very relaxed manner and said, "Boss Xiao, if I had greeted you, would you still dare to come?"
Xiao Zheng was startled, but he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
If he had known that Shang Yao was going to throw him into the fire pit, Xiao Zheng would definitely not have come …
"On this issue, I can help you smooth things over," Xiao Zheng changed the topic and said meaningfully. "But I cannot help you hide it for long."
"Boss Xiao, don't worry." Shang Yao smiled gently and said calmly. "My purpose is to reject the Bai Family."
After saying this, an imperceptible gloominess flashed across her eyes.
That was the truth.
She first threw out the established fact that she slept with Xiao Zheng to probe the Bai Family's background.
Sure enough, in order to facilitate the alliance between the two families, Bai Ziwen did not care whether she slept with Xiao Zheng or not. Even if Shang Yao shamelessly revealed the matter to the public.
After that, Shang Yao confirmed Bai Ziwen's attitude, she immediately followed up and told the big lie that she was pregnant with Xiao Zheng's child.
It didn't matter if he slept with her.
In this uninhibited era, who didn't have a story? But she got pregnant before marriage, and it was Xiao Zheng's child. No matter how magnanimous the Bai family was, they would not be able to accept it.
This was Shang Yao's entire plan, to make use of Xiao Zheng to ruthlessly slap the Bai Family in the face. At the same time, he had thoroughly offended Shang Jingtian.
After that, regardless of whether Shang Yao would give birth to the child or not, it would not matter. Did she have anything to do with Xiao Zheng? The Bai Family would probably not even think about it anymore.
This was too embarrassing!
Too shameless!
Xiao Zheng nodded in agreement with Shang Yao's words. But on second thought, he asked curiously, "You've already said it. How am I going to explain it to my family if my belly doesn't get bigger in a few months? "
Hearing this, Shang Yao looked at Xiao Zheng mysteriously, "Boss Xiao, since you care about me so much, why don't you find a chance to leave a child in my belly?"
Xiao Zheng rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "Miss Shang, I care about you as a friend. Don't joke around. "
Shang Yao smiled, but her voice gradually became light. She gently touched her flat belly, saying slowly, "Although medicine is very advanced now, it's not impossible. As long as I'm busy and tired from work, it's not impossible. As long as I'm busy and tired from work. That's reasonable. "
"Anyways — —" Shang Yao said sadly. "Even if there's a child, it's bound to have a tough life. No one knows for sure whether it's alive or dead. No one can give a definite answer. "
Shang Yao's words were cold and heartless.
But Xiao Zheng knew that it was the truth.
Even if Shang Yao was really pregnant, how would the child be born?
Would the Shang family accept it?
What about the Yan family?
There were too many external forces that would obstruct the birth of the child. So to Shang Yao, whether the child existed or not, it wasn't a difficult choice.
Rejecting the Bai family was the ultimate goal.
Sighing, Xiao Zheng didn't know what to say. He walked side by side with Shang Yao to Yan Shichang's study.
The room was lit with sandalwood incense, the fragrance was pleasant. It made one's heart feel indescribably peaceful.
On the table were two cups of tea that had been brewed. Yan Shichang was holding a cup in his hand, sipping it slowly. Seeing the two enter the room, he waved his hand slightly, indicating for them to take a seat.
Up until now, Xiao Zheng was still a little nervous. Shang Yao, on the other hand, was calm. She was not nervous at all because of what she had just done. With such mental fortitude, she could really become a great person.
"Say it." Yan Shichang put down the cup, looking at Xiao Zheng with narrowed eyes.
He looked like a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law.
Xiao Zheng laughed, pretending to drink his tea to hide his awkwardness. He pursed his lips: "Old man, I don't think I have anything to say."
"At this point, you still don't want to say anything?" Yan Shichang snorted, saying with an unfriendly expression. "Xiao Zheng, this isn't like you at all."
Xiao Zheng's back was soaked in cold sweat. He rarely felt so nervous. He glanced at Shang Yao, only to find that this woman didn't care at all, as if nothing happened. What, even if this dirty water splashed on me, I can't wash it away?
After a short pause, Xiao Zheng forced a smile: "Old man, you've misunderstood. This matter isn't — — "
"Grandfather." Shang Yao suddenly interrupted, interrupting Xiao Zheng. "You don't need to question Xiao Zheng about this. It's all my fault. "
You're calling me Xiao Zheng now?
Shang Yao, Shang Yao, you're purposely messing with me, aren't you?
Didn't you say that you only wanted to reject the Bai family? Why didn't you explain at this critical moment, and even led the old man to the wrong path?
This is unforgivable!
Yan Shichang glared at Shang Yao, then changed the topic: "You did it secretly!"
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he couldn't reveal anything. And Shang Yao only comforted Yan Shichang. She tried to hide this matter first. She couldn't let the outside world know. After all, the relationship between Xiao Zheng and Old Lin was known to the whole world. It wouldn't be good for anyone if it was exposed.
On the other hand, Yan Shichang looked angry. But he didn't refuse Shang Yao's request.
On the contrary — — whether it was for the family's benefit or his granddaughter's happiness, he wouldn't joke about this matter.
"Xiao Zheng, come to my place for tea when you're free. I've been working my whole life. Even if I'm not as capable as Old Ye, I'm still experienced. "Yan Shichang said calmly. His tone was cold, but he wasn't annoyed.
Xiao Zheng quickly nodded. Finally, he could get away and leave.
He didn't explain himself because he was afraid that if this lie was exposed, it would arouse Yan Shichang's strong resentment. It might even cause Shang Yao to lose her core competitiveness.
When this matter calmed down and the family didn't care about it anymore, it should be easier for them to accept it. It might even be a good thing for the Yan family if it came to that.
After all, it wasn't a good thing to be pregnant with Xiao Zheng's child. The Ye residence, Lin Laoyao, and the thousandth princess were all watching.
Whoever dared to bear Xiao Zheng's seed before Lin Huayin of the Eastern Palace could be rewarded with ten feet of red in minutes!
