Chapter 1050 - 1049: Jiangcheng! The Mistress Is Pregnant

On the other side, Gu Anxi got a WeChat from Lin Hua, just as she got off the plane.She stared at it for quite a while, then smiled.

Bo Xichen looked at her. "Is it about Feng Sheng? She found out?"

Gu Anxi sized him up. "Little Uncle, do you have a third eye or something? You can even guess that?"

Bo Xichen carried her little suitcase and said calmly as they walked along, "Don’t know if I have a third eye, but a third..."

Before he could finish, Nian Yao’s dad beside them coughed lightly. "Xichen, the kid’s still so young and you’re already joking like that with her."

Bo Xichen just smiled, saying nothing.

Thick-skinned as ever, Gu Anxi picked up the joke, and Nian Yao’s dad instantly couldn’t take it, hurried after his son and started earnestly persuading him that kids needed to be raised with attention to both mental and physical health...

Once they got in the car, Little Uncle Bo finally let out a small laugh. "Father, do you still want grandchildren or not? If you two stay prim and proper every day, you might have to wait another ten years and still see nothing."

That jabbed right into Bo Nianyao’s sore spot. He immediately said that young couples ought to pay attention to adding some spice to their lives, and finally added, "No, that won’t do. I have a secret manual. Xichen, I’ll give it to you later—guaranteed to bless you with a ton of sons and grandsons."

Gu Anxi muttered under her breath, "If it worked that well, the Bo Family wouldn’t be having only one heir each generation."

Bo Dad’s face stiffened; he felt completely humiliated.

The car drove back to the villa. They had just gotten out and gone back in for a sip of tea when someone arrived from the Wang Family patriarch’s place.

It was the Wang Family’s second sister-in-law. She’d clearly been waiting for Gu Anxi to come back for ages; the moment she saw her, she rushed over, dying to gossip. Bo Nianyao and Bo Xichen naturally had zero interest, and went straight to the lab. Once the others had gone, Gu Anxi leaned against the sofa and asked lazily, "So what’s the big news, Second Aunt? You’re this eager to spill it."

The second sister-in-law of the Wang Family sighed. "It’s the eldest branch’s family. Something happened."

"Big Uncle’s woman outside got pregnant?" Gu Anxi kept playing her game and tossed it out casually, not expecting that as soon as she said it, the Wang family’s second sister-in-law let out a sharp yelp. "Anxi, you already knew?"

What?

Gu Anxi immediately put down her phone, looked at the second sister-in-law, and frowned. "It’s Shen Wanqing?"

The second sister-in-law’s brows danced with excitement. "Who else? That homewrecker. She secretly got pregnant with the eldest’s kid—I heard she poked a few holes to get herself knocked up. The eldest panicked and didn’t know what to do, told her to get rid of it, but the moment that woman started crying, his heart went soft. Heh. Now he doesn’t even recognize his own son anymore, all he can think about is divorcing your eldest aunt."

Gu Anxi slumped into the sofa and stayed silent for a long moment. After a while, she turned her head. "So has Eldest Aunt agreed?"

The second sister-in-law sighed. "She’s pitiful too. As soon as she found out, she went after that Shen woman again, and it got to the point where they were in the hospital and she wanted to get rid of the baby. But your Big Uncle showed up and, in front of all those people, slapped her down hard in the face. Now the divorce is only one step away."

Hearing this, Gu Anxi more or less understood. She gave a little smile. "So Second Aunt, are you telling me this because you want me to help Eldest Aunt, or help that homewrecker outside keep her baby?"

The second sister-in-law choked, then smoothed her hair, looking a bit uncomfortable. "By rights I should stand with your eldest aunt, but the child is innocent..."

She then looked at Gu Anxi earnestly. "Aren’t you doctors the ones who can’t stand seeing little lives get destroyed?"

Gu Anxi smiled. "But I never said I wanted to help the mistress keep her baby. Besides, I already don’t like this Shen Wanqing. Second Aunt, you know that, right?"

The second sister-in-law’s face went a bit stiff. "I do, I do know that. But still, the child is innocent in all this, isn’t it?"

Gu Anxi picked up her phone and continued gaming. "Any kid conceived outside the marriage—there’s not a single tadpole there that’s innocent."

The second sister-in-law turned to stone. After a long while, she squeezed out a forced smile. "I’m just suggesting, yes, I’m only here to give you a heads-up. The old man is going to ask for your opinion on this. Anxi, it’s not that your aunt wants to meddle, it’s just that you’re the one he dotes on most now. The old man really values you."

"Oh, does he?" Gu Anxi gave a small smile.

Scene change: the Wang Family mansion.

Dinner.

A huge, long dining table. Old Wang sat at the head, with his sons and their wives seated in order down the sides. Wang Kefu had also come back, probably to fight for a proper status for Shen Wanqing and her son. So even though the old man got a headache just looking at him, he still shamelessly stuck around at home.

Gu Anxi’s seat was next to Old Wang. Halfway through dinner, the old man put down his chopsticks, swallowed his anger, and spoke gently, "Anxi, some disgraceful business has happened in the family. You know the person on the other side too. What do you think we should do?"

Gu Anxi was drinking soup, really enjoying it. She had the auntie ladle her another bowl before she glanced at the Wang family’s Big Uncle and slowly said, "What can I think? I’m not the one who got Shen Wanqing pregnant. Whoever did it, go ask him."

With that little spark she tossed, Old Wang’s anger shot straight up. He grabbed his cane and smacked it toward his unfilial son. "You shameless bastard, you’ve completely disgraced this family."

Wang Kefu took the blow nice and solid. He felt incredibly wronged, but didn’t dare fight back. His sweetheart was still waiting to marry in over there. Even after being beaten, he only dared mutter under his breath, "It was an accident..."

Gu Anxi smiled with narrowed eyes. "In this case, the chances are either zero percent or a hundred percent."

Wang Kefu secretly kicked her under the table and sent her a pleading emoji.

Propping her little head in her hand, Gu Anxi was baffled: ’Big Uncle, why are you kicking me?’

Wang Kefu felt like dying on the spot. Sure enough, the old man swung the cane down again. As he hit him, he cursed, "You disgusting, shameless thing. You make the mistake yourself and still have the nerve to get a junior to beg for you."

When he finished, he raised the cane to hit him again. Just then, the housemaid came hurrying over. "That Miss Shen is here. She’s standing outside and won’t leave no matter how we try to talk her into it."

Old Wang frowned. "What is she doing here?"

The second sister-in-law of the Wang Family spoke with a sharp, sour edge. "Exactly. Even if she’s walking around with a big belly right now, she still hasn’t been acknowledged by the old man. No name, no status. Sure enough, people from that kind of background don’t even want their faces anymore."
