My newlywed husband is infertile, but I’m pregnant

boom!

Zhong Lingxiao knelt on his knees without thinking.

Kneeling in front of the old man, "You must have misunderstood, I never meant that. Everything I did was for the good of the Zhong family."

The old man sneered and said, "Can you swear that you don't have the slightest thought of wishing me dead?"

"I swear, it's impossible!"

To Zhong Lingxiao, swearing something as vague and intangible as this was just a trick to deceive people.

The atmosphere in the ward was tense.

Zhong Lingxiao's knees hurt a little, and he stood straight, not daring to show any dissatisfaction. He was waiting for the old man's next instruction. He must be very angry that he had rushed here today and forced his way into the ward.

He had many ideas in his mind, wanting to make amends and apologize.

Calm the old man first.

"Old Master, since you..."

"Return all the seals I gave you."

Zhong Lingxiao was suddenly stuck: "Wha...what?"

"Give me back all the seals I handed to you on the day the ancestral hall was opened. I need to reconsider the choice of successor. What you did disappointed me so much. I don't think you are capable of standing in that position."

Zhong Lingxiao's back suddenly tensed up.

He didn't know whether the old man was testing him or was serious. Was he really going to give him the seal?

"Old Master, I don't have the seal with me."

"Then send someone to get it now. I can wait in the hospital." The old man was so calm that he was unwilling to wait even for one night.

Zhong Lingxiao was even more nervous. "Are you kidding me? On the day of the opening of the ancestral hall, many people knew that you were going to hand over the position of heir to me. Why are you suddenly..."

"I can give my things to whoever I want."

Old Master Zhong also figured it out. Neither Zhong Yi nor Zhong Lingxiao was worry-free. But comparing the two, Zhong Yi was more conscientious.

If the Zhong family fell into Zhong Yi's hands, their fate would be much better.

He used to think that the country girl was an obstacle, but now he thinks that Qiao Xi will be a helpful helper at some point. After a life-and-death experience, the old man has become indifferent.

"Are you going to give it to Zhong Yi?"

Zhong Lingxiao raised his head, his eyes filled with unconcealable anger and doubt.

Old Master Zhong seemed to have seen through his evil ambitions and asked, "Can't I give it to you?"

Zhong Yi put all the evidence of what Zhong Lingxiao had done in front of him, including evidence that he was trying to harm him. The old man was heartbroken, thinking that he had been too partial to Zhong Lingxiao. He thought that if he could have a child, he could give him the Zhong family.

Just so disappointed.

Zhong Lingxiao slowly stood up, looked at the old man and said, "I said I can't give it to you."

"Why should I give it to you?"

"Old Master, don't forget that those seals are in my hands. I am already the head of the Zhong family, and I even have the power to expel Zhong Yi from the Zhong family. He is just an illegitimate child. How much magic have you been fed? You want to give him the hundreds of years of Zhong family's foundation? I am the legitimate heir!"

Zhong Lingxiao had been resentful of his fate for most of his life, hating why an illegitimate child would come to snatch things from him.

His mother is the real Mrs. Zhong!

Is fate too unfair to him?

When the old man learned that his son was seriously ill, he brought his illegitimate son back to the imperial capital without a second thought.

This is a blow to him!

Old Master Zhong looked at him and said slowly: "You should know that from the beginning I never thought of letting Zhong Yi take over the family business. He was brought back by me only to serve as a tool to carry on the family line. But you made things difficult for him and inspired his fighting spirit. He grew step by step to a point that you and I could not control, and he also became an excellent candidate. In the final analysis, Zhong Lingxiao, you are useless!"

He received elite education from the Zhong family, but lost to an illegitimate child.

Blame it?

Zhong Lingxiao didn't expect the old man to think this way.

He smiled sarcastically: "You are old, so you should recuperate in the hospital. As for the Zhong family, I will develop and expand it. You will not live for many years in this life, so you should enjoy your life! Starting tomorrow, I will send more people to protect your safety."

Old Master Zhong didn't say anything. Is he going to send more people to help him go to heaven as soon as possible?

Zhong Lingxiao knocked over the cup and turned away.

Old Master Zhong leaned on the bed, his mood did not seem to be affected at all. His voice was slightly hoarse and vicissitudes: "I wanted to give him a chance, after all, he is really pitiful. He didn't want it himself, so let it be."

While cleaning up the broken glass on the ground, the butler said, "Old Master, Master Zhong Yi has always been the best candidate."

"Do you also think I was wrong to let them fight over who was better at the beginning?"

The housekeeper didn't dare to say anything more, and only said: "A harmonious family brings prosperity."

No one in a normal family would deliberately stir up disputes among the younger generations and fight to the death. Family members should not become aggressive catfish.

If one party had stopped thinking about it from the beginning, this wouldn't have happened.

After all, the old man did something wrong.

……

Night fell.

The moonlight is clear and bright.

A luxury car stopped at the gate of Xie Mansion, and Huo Sijiao sat in the car hesitantly.

"Aren't we going back to our villa?"

Xie Xubai put his coat on her and said softly, "Mother knows about the engagement party tonight and is afraid that you will be frightened. She specially asked us to stay here, where there are more people and it will be more lively. Maybe you won't be scared in the middle of the night."

The Xie family was very considerate and attentive, and Huo Sijiao felt that her mother-in-law was impeccable. She had never seen such a gentle and soft woman, who made people feel comfortable like water.

Huo Sijiao pulled his sleeve, looked at him seriously with her beautiful eyes and said, "Actually, I'm not afraid."

"is it?"

Xie Xubai opened the car door and a gust of cold wind blew in. Huo Sijiao couldn't help shrinking her neck, so he tied a scarf around her neck.

"Let's go. We have prepared some midnight snacks at home. You didn't eat anything at the party, so it would be nice to have some hot soup when you get home."

Xie Xubai stretched out his hand and looked at her.

Huo Sijiao felt helpless and could only clench his fingers tightly.

But when I got off the car, I felt a pain in the scratched right leg.

Without thinking, Xie Xubai bent down and hugged her. Huo Sijiao reflexively stretched out her hands and wrapped them around his neck, her ears burning.

She lowered her head, feeling a little conflicted. According to the current trend, the Huo family and Zhong Yi would be able to quickly settle the situation in the imperial capital by joining forces.

Her agreement with Xie Xubai will also be fulfilled.

But this man seemed to really respect and pamper her as if she were his wife.

Huo Sijiao felt indescribably depressed.

Xie Xubai's voice came from above his head: "What are you thinking about?"

"divorce."

Huo Sijiao said in a daze. It was not until the man stopped that she realized what she had said.

Suddenly she bit her red lips.
