Shen Xiang's eyes lit up when she heard her words, and she quickly pulled her up from the ground. "How can you sit on the ground? You have to be careful. There are two of you now. I'll go back and tell my parents to arrange the wedding and bring you home right away."

She turned to Lin Yue and tried to get closer to her, saying, "Look, this is all a misunderstanding. We'll be family soon. Shen Rong is your brother-in-law, so don't sue him. You don't want your child to be born without ever seeing its father, do you?"

Even if things get really bad, we can't let your sister remain a widow. A woman with a child can't survive without getting married.

I promise that our Shen family will treat her and the child well, and Shen Rong will not act foolishly again.

Lin Yue stared at her coldly without saying a word. Things had developed a bit too fast, and she still found it hard to believe.

Judging from Lin Yue's reaction, she probably wasn't sure who the child's father was. The Shen family was being so enthusiastic now; if they found out the child wasn't Shen Rong's, they would probably make an even bigger scene.

Lin Yue said to let the doctor do a test, but she was actually just trying to scare Lin Mei. The current technology can't detect it at all; we can only wait until the child grows up and see what he looks like.

If Lin Mei insisted on clinging to Chang Jinxiang, there really wouldn't be a way to explain it. Fortunately, they didn't know anything about it and were intimidated by her.

Lin Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Mei was surprised by Shen Xiang's quick change in attitude, which made her sense of superiority rise again.

If she could marry Shen Rong, then everything in the Shen family would be hers. The Shen family was rich, powerful, and had connections in high places. At that time, she would be able to get whatever she wanted.

Even if she drops out of school because of her pregnancy, who would dare to laugh at her? Finding a job wouldn't be a problem; she could be assigned to any company and avoid years of hard work.

Lin Mei immediately understood. She secretly glanced at Lin Yue. The most important thing now was to get her to withdraw the accusation against Shen Rong.

Shen Rong won't have to go to a labor camp. After he's released, he'll naturally be grateful to Lin Mei, and his family will also look up to her.

With a little encouragement in her ear, she'll surely have a good life. This could be considered a blessing in disguise.

As for Lin Yue, we'll deal with her when things calm down. Lin Mei's expression was indifferent, but her hands were clenched so tightly that her nails were almost digging into her flesh.

Seeing that Lin Yue didn't respond, Shen Xiang stiffly turned around and walked to Lin's mother. "I'm a mother too, and I know best how hard it is to be a mother. Both children are my flesh and blood, but right now, the child is the most important thing."

"Please talk to your eldest daughter and get Shen Rong to get married soon. Otherwise, once she's heavily pregnant, people will start gossiping. How will a young girl like her ever hold her head high again?"

Lin's mother had just considered all the possibilities. Shen Rong could change jobs so easily, so his family must be very well-off.

Lin Mei's marriage into the family brought her status and wealth, which naturally benefited the Lin family as a result.

She grasped Shen Xiang's hand in return and said affectionately, "That's right, that's right. The child's affairs are of utmost importance. It's no big deal for the adults to suffer a little grievance. Don't worry, leave this matter to me. You can go back and wait for good news."

Hearing this, Shen Xiang's heart sank into her stomach, and she couldn't wait to go back and tell her parents the good news.

Mr. and Mrs. Shen have been spending money and pulling strings everywhere to help Shen Rong, and they are already exhausted.

Shen Rong is the only son of the Shen family, and they have high hopes for him. If he is sent to a labor camp, he will have no future.

After Shen Xiang left, Lin's mother and Lin Mei exchanged a glance and immediately understood each other's meaning. They were indeed two birds of a feather, always in sync when it came to doing bad things.

Lin Mei spoke first, "Sister, since you don't want me to rely on your brother-in-law, release Shen Rong so that my child can be born openly. Otherwise, you will have to raise it in the future."

Chang Jinxiang whispered a few words in Lin Yue's ear with a cold face. Lin Yue's eyebrows relaxed and she nodded with a smile.

Seeing the two of them so affectionate, Lin Mei's jealousy grew wildly. She stared intently at Lin Yue, as if she wanted to drill a hole through her.

Lin Yue caught a glimpse of the expression on Chang Jinxiang's face out of the corner of her eye, a smile playing on her lips, and planted a kiss on Chang Jinxiang's cheek.

Lin Mei clenched her fists tightly, as if she felt no pain, and stared at Chang Jinxiang with unblinking eyes.

Push her away! Don't let her kiss you! Push her away! Countless voices were screaming in her head.

Chang Jinxiang chuckled softly, kissed Lin Yue's ear, and strode out of the ward.

Seeing that his gaze never lingered on her, Lin Mei turned and scolded Lin Yue, "You're shameless, using such seductive tricks in public."

Lin Yue chuckled softly, "I kissed my husband, it was perfectly legitimate and you still can't stand it. How did you manage to get pregnant secretly without even knowing who the father of the child is?"

"You're talking nonsense! It's all because of you! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in such a miserable state!" Lin Mei stomped her foot angrily and bit her lip.

Lin Yue tidied the hair behind her ear. "Oh, it's because of me. Then I'll have to help you out. What's that teacher's last name at your school? We should have him come and confront him to see if he had a child late in life."

Hearing the word "teacher," Lin Mei's heart nearly jumped out of her chest. How could she know about this? Nobody knew.

Lin's mother didn't understand what they were talking about. "What teacher? What does it have to do with the teacher?"

Lin Yue pointed at Lin Mei, "You'll have to ask your precious daughter about that. See how many good sons-in-law she's prepared for you."

Lin Mei almost bit her lip until it bled. She was already feeling guilty, and now she was even more afraid that Lin Yue would reveal the truth, which would ruin her marriage with Shen Rong.

Lin Mei didn't dare look her mother in the eye. Just now in the ward, her mother rushed up and grabbed her hair. She was already so hungry that she was weak and almost fell off the bed.

If it weren't for the Shen family's willingness to marry her, which allowed Lin's mother to regain her dignity, she probably would have beaten her again.

She quickly changed the subject, "Lin Yue, even if it weren't for you, as a sister you should think about me. He's your brother-in-law, you should release him right away."

Lin Yue's eyes sharpened, and she said calmly, "Do you own this police station? You think you can just release someone like that? Then go and say it yourself."

Lin's mother couldn't stand it anymore and was about to step forward to hit Lin Yue when she was stopped by a nurse who came in. "What? Do you think things haven't gotten big enough? Do you want to trouble the police to come in and have some tea with you?"

Chang Jinxiang was worried that Lin Yue would be taken advantage of, so before leaving he went to find the nurse and asked her to come and keep an eye on things.

The nurse peeled the banana in her hand and handed it to Lin Yue, saying, "Here, have some. It's very sweet. A patient's family gave it to me."
