Guo Yuelin could tell what Qin Zhiyuan was thinking just by looking at his expression. After three years of marriage, she could see right through his guilty conscience. She was sure the child was his.

If it's just a mistake, driving He Xiangning away and then apologizing properly might still offer a chance to make amends.

But now that she, the legal wife, has no children, He Xiangning is pregnant. What does this mean?

She would never accept it!

"Qin Zhiyuan, let's get a divorce!"

Guo Yuelin seemed to have made up her mind, looking at Qin Zhiyuan with a resolute gaze.

She had always felt that Qin Zhiyuan treated her well, so even though his birth mother was gone and the children born to his stepmother were more favored in the household, she never complained.

Her parents had tried to stop her before, saying that the Qin family was not good enough for her, but she thought that as long as Qin Zhiyuan treated her well and they were a couple, they would definitely be able to live a good life together.

Only now does she realize that what her parents said was true: Qin Zhiyun was just putting on a show of being nice; it was all a lie!

Qin Zhiyuan was preoccupied with how to save the child, and was taken aback when he suddenly heard Guo Yuelin's words. He quickly replied:

"Madam, let's talk this out. What are you doing?"

He anxiously pulled Guo Yuelin along, coaxing her, "It was indeed my fault. I was drunk when she seduced me. Please forgive me this time."

I promise I will never have anything to do with He Xiangning again. Once her child is born, I'll kick her out and you can raise the child yourself. How about that?

The disgust in Guo Yuelin's eyes intensified. "Drunk and seduced? Do you think I'm stupid?"

I've been back at my parents' home for so many days, and you haven't come to pick me up. I found that strange. I'm afraid you were too busy fooling around with He Xiangning to bring me back.

If you truly feel sorry for me, there won't be a second time!

But you and she were sleeping together in our bed, buying her cosmetics and clothes, and now you have a child and want me to raise it. You disgust me!

Qin Zhiyuan was thoroughly berated, and feeling utterly humiliated in front of so many people, he couldn't help but shout:

"Don't you like children? I'm only thinking of you! It's your fault for not being able to have them."

"Then you should take good care of your child! I find him disgusting!"

Guo Yuelin flung Qin Zhiyuan's hand away and turned to leave without any further hesitation. She had to divorce Qin Zhiyuan!

She didn't want to get involved in the Qin family's mess anymore!

"Guo Yuelin, you'll regret this!" Qin Zhiyuan couldn't help but shout.

"Whoever regrets this will be a grandson!"

Seeing that Guo Yuelin was determined to leave, Qin Zhiyuan's face grew even uglier. He had no choice but to turn to look at He Xiangning, feeling an indescribable irritation in his heart. But when he thought of the child, he held back.

The most important thing now is to save his child!

"Shuangshuang, you were the one who orchestrated this, weren't you? I happened to overhear you borrowing money from your mother when I passed by your courtyard earlier, presumably to bribe these people," Qin Zhiyuan suddenly said.

Qin Shuangshuang stared wide-eyed in disbelief when she saw Qin Zhiyuan suddenly turn against her. "Wh-what?"

"You can entrust the whole matter to Lanfeng. Lanfeng's brother is a local thug, so he's very good at this kind of thing."

Now it's no use for you to argue; you might as well admit it, apologize, and say that you've dragged so many people into this mess for your own selfish reasons. It's time you woke up to reality.

Chu Junting was slightly surprised to see that Qin Zhiyuan knew so much about the matter. He turned his gaze slightly and glanced at his subordinate, who immediately understood.

"Your Highness, I will go and arrest them right away. I will make sure they don't escape."

"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? This was clearly orchestrated by He Xiangning and Tang Xuening. Shuangshuang was just dragged into this as a scapegoat. We are the real family!"

Qin Xiangheng was furious. He originally didn't want Qin Shuangshuang to be dragged into this mess, and the death of He Xiangning was no big deal.

Did the eldest brother choose to push Qin Shuangshuang away because of the child in her womb?

"I'm just telling the truth. Who told her to keep quiet? All these recent events are her fault!"

If we don't learn our lesson, this kind of thing will just keep happening, and I'm really fed up with it.

Qin Zhiyuan's expression was indifferent. In the end, the reason why things turned out this way was all Qin Shuangshuang's fault.

If he gets a divorce, all the help the Guo family has given him will be gone!

His relationship with Qin Xiangheng was never very good to begin with, and his stepmother always favored them. As a result, his father was not as kind to him as before, and all the benefits were given to Qin Xiangheng and his stepmother.

Rather than waiting until the Guo family's help is gone and being severely suppressed by Qin Xiangheng, it's better to take this opportunity to suppress them all at once!

"My God, I never expected the Qin family to be in such a mess. I always said Qin Shuangshuang was a jinx. First, she caused the Lin family to fall into ruin, and now she's bringing He Xiangning to bring disaster to the Qin family."

Yun Nianchu felt that the Lin and Qin families had monopolized the excitement of the capital this year. "But the Qin family really seems to have inherited this talent for infidelity!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze towards the Qin family turned strange.

Qin Xiangheng and Qin Shuangshuang need no introduction; the whole imperial city witnessed their spectacle. Now, Qin Zhiyuan has done the same thing, so isn't it just a continuation of the same lineage?

The Qin family has four children in total. Now that three of them are like this, I'm afraid the remaining one... won't be much better off.

Chu Junting walked to the Emperor's side and gave a detailed report on the matter.

“Father, Qin Shuangshuang and the others have slandered people more than once, and now they have even colluded with so many people. If they are not severely punished, the consequences will be unimaginable if others follow suit in the future.”

The Emperor nodded, “Indeed, such unorthodox practices must not be encouraged and must be severely punished to serve as a warning to others.”

Now that you know the whole story, I'm entrusting this matter to you. Make sure you get to the bottom of it and let all the people see the truth.

Today's incident has caused such a stir, attracting the attention of the entire city. It must be handled clearly and thoroughly to convince the public.

"Father, rest assured, I will definitely handle things properly."

Chu Junting then walked back to Song Ruozhen's side. Seeing that the excitement had subsided, he finally spoke:

"Guards, take Qin Shuangshuang, He Xiangning, Tian Jiaojiao, Tang Xuening and the others away for thorough interrogation."

It wouldn't be difficult to investigate this matter thoroughly, but since these people were working together to embarrass Ruozhen, he decided to let everyone see their ugly faces.

Tang Xuening panicked when she heard that she was to be taken away.

"Why are you taking me with you? I've been framed; I was just misled!"

Tang Hongji couldn't help but get anxious. "Xue Ning already knows she was wrong. She is willing to apologize to Miss Song. This matter was a conspiracy by Qin Shuangshuang and the other person. She was innocently implicated."

Miss Song, can't you forgive her this once? Why do you have to keep pushing her like this?

Seeing that Tang Hongji had turned his attention to her, Song Ruozhen sneered inwardly. Sure enough, none of these guys were easy to deal with.

"I'm forcing you?" Song Ruozhen scoffed, her eyes growing colder. "Then why didn't you stand up to stop them when they conspired to frame me, calling me a viper and an outrage against everyone?"

"If I didn't have some means to prove my innocence, would an ordinary girl have any chance of survival after being targeted like this?"
