Adorably Cute Baby: Mommy's Going Against the Heavens

"I'll give it to you." Shen Yunxi trembled, her bloodied fingers gripping Jiang Shuyue's skirt tightly as if grasping at a last straw. She pleaded, "The position of Crown Princess, I'll give it to you. I don't want anything else."

Little did she know, her words struck Jiang Shuyue right where it hurt.

"You're giving it to me?" Jiang Shuyue roared in fury, stomping her foot on Shen Yunxi's round belly: "Why would I need charity from a piece of trash like you!"

"what--"

A thunderclap ripped through the night sky, deafeningly loud, yet it could not drown out Shen Yunxi's heart-wrenching wails.

Crimson blood soaked into the soil beneath them, meandering and flowing like tiny blood-red streams as the torrential rain washed over them, eventually converging into a shocking sight. The heavy stench of blood permeated the air, mingling with the earthy odor, making one want to vomit.

Jiang Shuyue coldly watched Shen Yunxi struggle in pain. The scarlet rain washed away the bloodstains on the ground and also washed away the last trace of pretense on her face.

She finally got rid of this useless person who had always been a thorn in her side. She no longer needed to pretend to be a close sister. In the future, she could completely erase this hypocritical past and stand beside His Highness the Crown Prince with a brand new attitude.

Shen Yunxi gasped for breath, the excruciating pain in her abdomen making it almost impossible for her to speak: "I can give you anything you want, just please, spare me, spare my child! He doesn't know anything yet, he's about to be born, please, let him come into this world and see it..."

"Hahahaha..." Jiang Shuyue laughed so hard she was bent over, her sharp, piercing laughter sounding particularly eerie and terrifying in the stormy night with its thunder and lightning: "Shen Yunxi, you are so naively ridiculous! Even at this point, you still expect me to let you go? Do you think I am a bodhisattva reincarnated, with a soft heart?"

She finished laughing, then abruptly stopped, her eyes turning icy cold: "Haven't you realized yet? I did all of this!" She spoke each word slowly and deliberately, each syllable like a sharp knife piercing Shen Yunxi's heart.

"Those rumors that ruined your reputation, I made them up! I wrote those fabricated stories into storybooks and gave them to the storytellers in the teahouses to embellish and spread everywhere!" Jiang Shuyue paused, a cruel smile curving her crimson lips. "Your being kicked out of the Shen family was also my doing! Your dear cousin Shen Qingrou and I joined forces to drive you to your doom step by step!"

She became more and more excited as she spoke, her tone growing increasingly agitated: "And your maternal grandfather and uncles, it was also me who interfered, making them completely disappointed in you and turning against you!" She grabbed Shen Yunxi's chin, forcing her to look into her eyes: "Day and night, every minute and every second, the person who wanted you dead the most was me!"

Jiang Shuyue's words were light and airy, seemingly without any weight, yet each word was like a knife, viciously cutting into Shen Yunxi's heart. Every sentence was like a heavy hammer, striking her heart again and again, causing her unbearable pain.

However, just as she was about to lose consciousness, Jiang Shuyue's devilish whisper once again pierced her eardrums, subjecting her already battered heart to further torment.

“Oh, right…” Jiang Shuyue pretended to suddenly realize something, squatted down, and gently lifted Shen Yunxi’s chin with her fingers, forcing her to look at her: “There’s one more thing, but I didn’t do that.”
