Cheng Ying walked up to Zhou Mei and stopped three steps away. She stared intently into Zhou Mei's eyes and said, "Aunt Zhou, look at me and say what you just said again!"

Zhou Mei unconsciously looked into Cheng Ying's eyes, but slowly she was drawn into those bright black pupils and quickly became immersed in them.

When Cheng Ying saw that Zhou Mei's eyes were already glazed over, she finally asked her question, starting with the simplest one.

"What's your name?"

Zhou Mei

Zhou Mei said blankly.

When did you and Ma Quan get together?

"Fifteen years ago, when I was still the lady's maid, Ma Quan, taking advantage of being the steward's distant nephew, always tried to take advantage of me."

Everyone gasped in shock; it turned out that the two of them had been hooking up all along.

When did you start planning to climb into someone's bed?

Cheng Ying thought for a moment and asked.

"Fifteen years ago, I accidentally let Ma Quan have his way with me. Later, I found out I was pregnant, but I didn't want to accept my fate and marry Ma Quan."

"So I took advantage of one of Luo Yu's drinking days and put the medicine in the hangover soup."

"But Luo Yu was too drunk to take his medicine, so I took advantage of the fact that he was sleeping in the study that day and took off both of our clothes to make it a fait accompli."

Upon hearing Zhou Mei's words, Luo Yu and Luo Jingtao were shocked. They looked at each other, Luo Yu with a sense of relief, but Luo Jingtao felt as if the sky had fallen.

Luo Jingtao looked at Zhou Mei in disbelief. "I wasn't Dad's son, but Dad and I look so alike, how could I not be?"

Luo Yu's initial relief turned into confusion. "Tao'er, if he's not my son, then why does he look so much like me, and not at all like Ma Quan and Zhou Mei?"

Cheng Ying then asked, "After your scheme succeeded, did you successfully give birth to the child?"

After hearing Cheng Ying's question, both Luo Yu and Luo Jingtao stared intently at Zhou Mei, wondering what she would say next.

"No, it was a stillborn baby."

After Zhou Mei finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent. Luo Yu, Luo Jingtao, Chen Yulan, and Lin Zeyang and his wife were all shocked.

What does that mean? The baby was stillborn.

Who is Luo Jingtao's son? Did he spring from a rock?

Cheng Ying breathed a sigh of relief; finally, she could get to the point.

"Where did the stillborn baby go?"

After Cheng Ying asked that question, the others clenched their fists and listened quietly to Zhou Mei's reply.

However, after hearing the question, Zhou Mei's face contorted for a moment, but Cheng Ying suppressed it by increasing her mental energy input.

"Tell me! Where did your stillborn baby go?"

Cheng Ying asked again.

"I took the stillborn baby to Chen Yulan's delivery room and switched it with Chen Yulan's son. Hahahaha, now his son is my son, hahahaha..."

"What?! You! You actually..."

Luo Yu was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.

After a moment of stunned silence, Luo Jingtao abruptly turned to look at Chen Yulan, who was sitting there, staring at him in disbelief as well.

Unexpectedly, things turned out this way. Chen Yulan suddenly stood up, but after a moment of dizziness, she sat down again.

After regaining their senses, Luo Yu and Luo Jingtao quickly ran towards Chen Yulan, "Madam, are you alright?"

“Mother…” Luo Jingtao was a step behind Luo Yu and was supported by Luo Yu, but Luo Jingtao’s red eyes showed that he was feeling extremely complicated.

Luo Wanyin also stood up and walked towards Chen Yulan, "Mother, how are you? Don't scare me."

After the dizziness subsided, Chen Yulan quickly looked up at Luo Jingtao.

Her lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Chen Yulan reached out her hand to Luo Jingtao, and Luo Jingtao, understanding her intention, reached out and grasped Chen Yulan's hand.

"My son! I've wronged you all these years!"

Luo Jingtao immediately knelt before Chen Yulan and said, "Mother..."

Chen Yulan choked back tears as she answered, "Oh! My son!"

Chen Yulan hugged Luo Jingtao's head and couldn't help but cry.

Luo Yu also wiped away his tears. He didn't go forward to comfort the two of them because he knew that his wife and son needed to vent; they had been suffering too much.

Luo Wanyin nestled in Lin Zeyang's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. Lin Zeyang patted Luo Wanyin's back comfortingly.

Although they didn't recognize each other for more than ten years, fortunately the mother and son were not too far apart, and Chen Yulan usually treated Luo Jingtao very well.

Luo Jingtao also respected Chen Yulan as a mother. So, because of their kind hearts, neither of them harbored resentment towards the other because of Zhou Mei. Good people are rewarded, and that's how it is!

After Cheng Ying and the others calmed down, they asked, "Grandfather, Aunt Zhou, what do you plan to do?"

Luo Yu stared at Zhou Mei with a gloomy expression and said, "Send her to the authorities and have her go keep Ma Quan company!"

Cheng Ying smiled and nodded. "That's a good idea!"
