The mind-reading fake heiress changes her fate by eating melons.

[This is really strange. If Chi Lingling thinks she loves Qiu Li, why would she want to shift the blame onto him?]

Furthermore, how did she manage to manipulate public opinion and ruin Qiu Li's reputation all by herself?

Qiu Li Qiu Nian: Yes, yes, we want to know too!

They waited for a long time but didn't hear An Ling continue. So, while picking up food, they glanced at An Ling and found that although she was eating with her head down, her wide eyes still revealed her shock.

[Chi Lingling! She's pregnant?!]

She just went to the hospital for a checkup this afternoon, and the results are in her bag!

Although Qiu Li and Qiu Nian tried their best to maintain their expressions, they almost couldn't hold back.

Behind Chi Lingling was her tote bag for commuting. The zipper was undone, and you could see a file folder inside. It's normal for people in her line of work to carry file folders in their bags. Who would have thought that it would contain her pregnancy test results!

This is troublesome; she probably doesn't even know who the father of the child is.

Qiu Nian looked at Qiu Li with some reproach, only to find that her brother gently shook his head at her.

Wait a minute, does she know?

[Qiu Li never had a relationship with her at all??]

Qiu Li breathed a sigh of relief, not expecting that An Ling could even find out this.

The Qiu family has strict rules, and Qiu's parents are very traditional, so Qiu Li has always insisted that they can only have a relationship after marriage.

Although Chi Lingling sometimes called him old-fashioned and unromantic, he was actually very glad that he was old-fashioned at this moment.

Otherwise, many things will really get tangled up and unclear.

Chi Lingling originally hoped that her relationship with Qiu Li and Qi Yize could last as long as possible, and even if it had to end, it would only be after she and Qiu Li got married. However, her unexpected pregnancy has disrupted her beautiful plans.

After a moment of anxiety, she immediately came up with two options: one was to break up with Qiu Li and get together with Qi Yize.

[Another option is... to find a way to have a relationship with Qiu Li, and then pretend that the child is Qiu Li's.]

[Ugh, I'm speechless! How can she have the nerve to call this a solution? Did Qiu Li desecrate her family's ancestral graves in her past life? This is how she's taking revenge on Qiu Li!]

Qiu Li's face darkened this time. He was afraid that he might accidentally reveal a fierce look in his eyes, so he could only close his eyes for the time being.

[Because Chi Lingling only received her test results today, she's still struggling with which of these two options to choose.]

[But in the original storyline, Chi Lingling's choice was, well, the second one.]

[Congratulations, my unlucky brother, you've won against Qi Yize once again.]

Qiu Li closed her eyes again after just opening them.

He doesn't care who wins this competition; he doesn't want to win at all.

[However, in the original story, Qiu Li was simply too stubborn and inflexible. No matter what methods Chi Lingling tried, he refused to compromise his principles. But Chi Lingling couldn't delay any longer; if she did, she wouldn't be able to take advantage of the situation.]

So after much hesitation, she decided to tell Qi Yize, who was overjoyed upon hearing the news.

It wasn't the joy of becoming a father, but rather the joy of thinking, "This time I can really give Qiu Li a big blow."

He wasn't truly in love with Chi Lingling to the point of obsession and insistence on being with her. To him, Chi Lingling was only useful as Qiu Li's girlfriend, so he planned to keep Chi Lingling in check for now.

He told Chi Lingling that if he suddenly told Qiu Li the truth, Qiu Li definitely wouldn't be able to handle the blow. It would be better to maintain the status quo for now, and find time to talk to Qiu Li in person after he finished his current tasks. He said it was his fault, and he should bear Qiu Li's anger.

Chi Lingling was even more moved after hearing this, feeling that Qi Yize truly loved her. So, she obediently kept quiet about it and continued to date Qiu Li on the surface.

Qiu Li and Qiu Nian felt their blood pressure rising. Did Chi Lingling really not see through Qi Yize's scheme at all?

If he truly loved Chi Lingling, he would have made her break up with Qiu Li and be with him long ago. How could he have allowed her to stay by Qiu Li's side after knowing that Chi Lingling was pregnant?

This is clearly a sign that he doesn't want to take responsibility and only wants to use her as a tool to humiliate Qiu Li.

Actually, Qi Yize just wanted to stall for time. He was afraid that if he revealed his true colors to Chi Lingling now, Chi Lingling would go and have an abortion.

He planned to wait until Chi Lingling's pregnancy became too obvious to hide and let Qiu Li discover the truth herself, and then turn against Chi Lingling.

We'll see what Chi Lingling does then. Whether she plays along and claims the child is Qiu Li's, or Qiu Li discovers the child is Qi Yize's, it'll be a satisfying outcome for Qi Yize.

[However, he didn't know that Chi Lingling and Qiu Li had never had a relationship, so the first scenario was impossible.]

From this perspective, while Chi Lingling's brainlessness is outrageous, Qi Yize's shamelessness is even more insane.

If Chi Lingling chooses to lie to Qiu Li, then Qiu Li will treat the child as her own. If Qiu Li discovers that the child is Qi Yize's, then she will realize that her girlfriend and best friend have been having an affair all along. In any case, Qi Yize will not lose out no matter which outcome he chooses.

However, Chi Lingling didn't live to see the day Qi Yize went to talk to Qiu Li, because Qi Yize was going to be investigated for fabricating evidence in just over a month.

Chi Lingling was completely devastated, not knowing what to do. She considered secretly aborting the child and continuing to be with Qiu Li as if nothing had happened, but she also felt that Qi Yize loved her so much, and she would feel terrible for aborting his child.

【Ugh, doesn't she feel really bad for Qiu Li? 】

[Around that time, she received a message from an unknown number, saying that if she could find a way to frame Qiu Li for what Qi Yize had done, Qi Yize might be exonerated.]

Chi Lingling herself is a law student, and she knew that such a flawed scheme could not possibly succeed. But that person said that even if it didn't succeed, it wouldn't matter. As long as she came forward and identified Qiu Li as the one who took money to fabricate evidence, he would give her a large sum of money. In any case, she wouldn't lose out.

But if she disagrees, she will tell Qiu Li that she is pregnant with Qi Yize's child.

Chi Lingling was terrified. This matter should have been known only to her and Qi Yize, but it was found out by someone whose identity she didn't know at all. Didn't that mean that person was investigating her?

Realizing this, she dared not refuse and did as the man said.

Qiu Li and Qiu Nian had already heard about what happened next. Qiu Li was taken in for investigation and was stabbed to death by the criminal's family members in a fit of rage, which also caused Qiu's parents to be involved in a car accident.

The reason why the Qiu family was destroyed and everyone died was actually this.
