The next morning, Bei Chendong arrived especially early for tea.
Father Bei was waiting for him in the garden. As he brewed some tea, he smiled, "It's rare for you to remember that you have a father."
Bei Chendong lifted his jacket and sat down on a stone bench. He ignored the falling snow and picked up a hot cup of tea, "Father, I came here today to admit my wrongdoings."
"Does this look like you're admitting your wrongdoings?" Father Bei glared at his son and took a sip of his tea. "Speak, what do you want?"
"Actually, I'm not sick," Bei Chendong said straightforwardly.
After hearing this, Father Bei slammed his teacup onto the stone table and furrowed his brows, "If you have the guts, say that again."
"I said I'm not sick!" Bei Chendong repeated. "To prevent you from objecting to my marriage with Xiner, I put on an act."
"Since you've already lied to me, why didn't you go all the way and admit to it instead?"
"Xiner is pregnant, so I told her to abort the child. She thought the anti-depressants I took were bad for the child. But, in reality, there's nothing wrong with Xiner and the child," Bei Chendong explained in seriousness. "So, I don't think you should force Xiner to abort the child."
Father Bei scoffed. In reality, his hands were already trembling. But, when he thought about it, he found it both ridiculous and infuriating.
He knew that Bei Chendong was capable of doing something like this.
"If Xiner wasn't pregnant, did you not plan to explain yourself?" Father Bei lowered his head and approached Bei Chendong.
"Yes," Bei Chendong replied honestly.
"What do you think your mother and I are? Huh? " Father Bei continued to question Bei Chendong. "We wholeheartedly worried about your health, but look at what happened? Are you kidding us? Is it fun? "
"Bei Chendong, you're already in your 30s. Why can't you be mature and think about the consequences of your actions like Mo Ting?"
"Did you think that if you made your own decisions in life, we wouldn't have to interfere?"
Father Bei trembled in anger as Bei Chendong subconsciously reached out to help him up...
"Don't touch me. I can't make the decision for you. Go tell your mother yourself."
…
So, by the time Han Xiner woke up, Bei Chendong was nowhere to be seen. He didn't even pick up her phone. She had no idea where he had gone and he didn't even bother to say hello.
She would never have guessed that Bei Chendong was currently kneeling in the Bei Family's ancestral hall.
All the elders of the Bei Family had arrived, especially Mother Bei. No wonder she hadn't seen Bei Chendong take his medicine, it was because...
He wasn't sick at all. It was all because of his superb acting skills.
"Your dad and I aren't like you. I don't know who you take after." Mother Bei also looked at Bei Chendong with disappointment, "Does the Bei Family still need you to inherit the family business? I'd rather donate it to charity than let you squander it. "
"Mom, I'm sorry, but this is all my idea. It has nothing to do with Xing 'er."
"Humph." Mother Bei snorted coldly. She was very confident about this. "Do you think I don't know you? I'm well aware of Xin 'er's personality. She doesn't have such a cunning mind. "
"So, don't blame her."
"If you knew this day would come, why did you lie to us? How old do you think you are? Bei Chendong, I'm not disappointed because of anything else, but because of your actions. "
"You can continue kneeling in the ancestral hall."
…
Han Xiner couldn't find Bei Chendong anywhere. She even gave Tangning and Mo Ting a phone call, but there was no news of him.
In the end, she had no choice but to go to the Bei Family Home to look for him.
After giving Mother Bei a phone call, Mother Bei's voice was cold, "Bei Chendong has returned home..."
"Oh..."
"Xiner, come home for a while," Mother Bei instructed after realizing that Han Xiner had no idea how serious the situation was.
"OK, I'll be right there."
Han Xiner had a feeling that being called back to the Bei Family Home wasn't a simple matter. Bei Chendong had disappeared early in the morning and was still uncontactable. So, what else could he be doing at the Bei Family Home?
So, Han Xiner hurried back to the Bei Family Home. As soon as she stepped through the front door, she saw Mother Bei looking at her sternly, "Xiner, how dare you! Did you already know that Bei Chendong was pretending to be sick? You must have put in a lot of effort to get into the Bei Family Home. "
After hearing Mother Bei's words, Han Xiner's heart sank.
So, she approached Mother Bei and tried to convince her with sincerity. But, Mother Bei directly brushed her aside.
"Mom... I indeed knew about this from the start. I have nothing to say to defend myself. I simply hope that you won't be so angry."
"How could I not be angry? Right now, you only have two choices. One, give birth to the child and get a divorce from Bei Chendong. Two, abort the child and get a divorce right now... "
"Mom, I didn't do this because I wanted to marry into a wealthy family. I hope you can understand that Bei Chendong has always been like this and I can't do anything about him. So, no matter what happens, I can take responsibility with Bei Chendong. But, I hope you won't separate us... "
"I can write a guarantee that I won't take a single cent from the Bei Family."
"But, I'm begging you, please don't separate us..."
"I don't want to be separated from him..."
Han Xiner burst into tears as she grabbed onto Mother Bei's arm and shook it back and forth.
Mother Bei turned around and looked at Han Xiner. In the end, she shook her head helplessly, "Don't cry, don't cry. Go check on that bastard first."
Mother Bei did not say anything as she directly led Han Xiner to the Bei Family's ancestral hall.
As soon as she saw Bei Chendong kneeling on the ground, Han Xiner wanted to run over, but Mother Bei stopped her.
"You are currently pregnant and he has a thick skin. It's not like he'll die from kneeling a few times..."
Han Xiner did not dare to move. She simply stood to the side and watched Bei Chendong...
"Xiner, go home," Bei Chendong said as he turned to Han Xiner. "You have no business here."
"I'm not leaving..." Han Xiner cried. "If there's a crime, we can suffer together. Let's see if you still think of using tricks like this in the future."
After hearing Han Xiner's words, the Bei Couple almost clapped their hands in joy. Finally, someone could teach this demon a lesson!
Ever since he was young, no one had been able to control Bei Chendong. Now that Han Xiner was threatening him, it was time to show everyone that Bei Chendong had a day like this.
"You don't care about the consequences of everything you do. If your actions end up hurting me, I want to see what you'll do."
After hearing what Han Xiner had to say, Bei Chendong stood up and bowed to his parents, "Dad, Mom, I know I went overboard this time. But, if you want to punish someone, you should direct it at me. Xiner was simply forced by me."
