âI do. Of course I do,â Ye Shengge said solemnly. âI just feel that neither Yu Shuhang nor Ling Yutong are lying. There must be a misunderstanding.â
Ji Shiting stared at her for a while.
Ye Shengge was nervous. âDid I say something wrong tonight?â
âNo.â The man curled his lips. âYou handled it very well.â
With the paternity test report laid in front of her and Yu Shuhangâs display, Ye Shengge didnât care whether the child was related to Ji Shiting or not. Instead, she took the initiative to solve the problem.
Ling Yutong used the childâs will as an excuse to occupy the moral high ground. She also retaliated for the sake of the child, which made Ling Yutong unable to stand her ground.
She was calm and smart.
However, she was too calm.
Was it because she trusted him completely, or... did she not care at all?
âReally?â She asked carefully. âYou can tell me if you think Iâm not good enough.â
Although the man was praising her, he didnât seem to think so.
Ji Shiting saw the uneasiness in her eyes and chuckled, âNo. Iâm very happy. Youâre a very competent wife.â
He then pulled her into his embrace and put his hand on her waist, tightening it bit by bit as if all his complicated emotions were focused on that small action.
Ye Shengge breathed a sigh of relief. She leaned against the manâs chest, and the familiar cold air made her eyes burn.
She then hugged him tightly.
...
After they returned to Qianfan Villa, Sister Xiu couldnât wait to welcome them.
âYoung Master, Grandpa is here. He said you have a son and he wants to see his great-grandson...â She was pleasantly surprised as she looked at Ye Shengge.â Is Young Madam... pregnant? â
Ji Shiting looked solemn.
Someone mustâve called Grandpa Ji.
Ye Shengge smiled. She was hoping that she would have it.
âGrandpa made a mistake,â Ji Shiting said. âLet him go back.â
However, Grandpa Ji walked out with Uncle Jinâs help.
He looked around and said, âYouâre finally back! Whereâs my great-grandson? Let me see!â
âYour great-grandson hasnât shown up yet,â Ji Shiting said coldly. âWho called you? Didnât he tell you that the child has nothing to do with me?â
Grandpa Ji glared at him and said, âIsnât there a paternity test report? Shuhang went to verify it himself. There canât be any mistake, right?â
âDo you believe me or the paternity test report?â Ji Shiting sneered. âI said no.â
Grandpa Ji smashed his walking stick on the ground and said, âYouâre so irresponsible! You didnât even acknowledge the evidence. You... Youâre infuriating!â
âCalm down, grandpa.â Ye Shengge was afraid that her grandpa would get mad. âLetâs sit down and talk.â
âShengge, I know youâre a sensible child.â Grandpa frowned. âShiting and I didnât know about that child before, so youâre the one who will be most troubled by it now... Shiting might have considered that and refused to acknowledge that child.â
