Chapter 443: Chapter 443

"You tell me," Yu Siqiao said after taking a sip of coffee that had long since gone cold, his expression indifferent and void of emotion.

He and Gu Wenjuan had long reached the end of their obligations to each other.

The only reason he had helped her in the past was because of a life-saving debt from when they were children; there was no justification to let her end up homeless on the streets.

Now that Gu Wenjuan had returned to her wealthy family, her life was free from worries about food and clothing, she didn’t need to worry about anything anymore. The only remaining connection between them was through Mo Shu.

Gu Wenjuan seemed hesitant and struggling. After a moment, she said, "I don’t know if it’s right for me to say this, but I truly cannot bear to see you being continuously deceived by Princess Mo."

Yu Siqiao let out a cold laugh.

With such an introduction, it seemed she was about to disclose something serious.

How could he not know about being deceived by Mo Shu?

Hearing his cold laugh, Gu Wenjuan felt inexplicably panicked in her heart.

She had a premonition that Young Master Yu might not believe her.

Struggling for a bit, Gu Wenjuan continued, "Princess Mo, it’s true that she was pregnant before, but she... has already had an accidental miscarriage."

Yu Siqiao’s heart skipped a beat and his face instantly darkened as he shouted in a low voice, "Shut your lying mouth!"

Mo Shu had a miscarriage?

She had just eaten a mouthful of aromatic oils, and in the morning, she complained to him about how disgusting the new fetus-preserving medicine Grandpa Wu had given her tasted.

And now she has had a miscarriage?

Gu Wenjuan was startled by his rebuke.

But this also fully demonstrated the degree of Young Master Yu’s concern for the child in Princess Mo’s womb.

Gu Wenjuan hurriedly said, "It’s true. Everything I said is true, not a single word is a lie! If I speak falsely, may the heavens strike me with lightning! May I never die a peaceful death!"

Gu Wenjuan’s face had turned slightly pale; it was evident that she was somewhat scared.

But still, she spoke with utmost earnestness.

Yu Siqiao reined in his impatience and narrowed his eyes, asking, "When?"

Seeing him finally asking the question she had expected, Gu Wenjuan’s heart felt a tinge of happiness as she said, "It happened not long ago, not long at all!"

Yu Siqiao let out a cold laugh, his long and narrow eyes filled with icy sharpness.

Gu Wenjuan’s heartbeat quickened and, hesitating, she said, "Actually, the child in Princess Mo’s womb was gone long ago. Everything she’s told others about being pregnant has been false, all deceit. She did it because she knows that you will only give her a second glance if she’s bearing a child."

Gu Wenjuan spoke with great sincerity, as if everything she said was something she had seen with her own eyes, absolutely true.

Finally, Yu Siqiao couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity of it all, letting out a low chuckle.

Even though the laughter didn’t reach his eyes, Gu Wenjuan’s heart fluttered uncontrollably.

She rarely saw Yu Siqiao laugh. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelfire.net

When he did, he was really good-looking.

Gu Wenjuan heard Yu Siqiao ask once more, "Who told you these things?"

Suppressing her racing heart, she bit her lower lip and said, "Who told me is not important. What’s important is that everything I’ve told you is true. Princess Mo is currently faking her pregnancy, and, if I’m not mistaken, she will use me to pretend to have a miscarriage so that... I will become the sin at the scene of your child’s death, and after that, I will be forever erased from your life."

The initial disgust he felt was suddenly magnified countless times.

"Actually, Princess Mo has always been telling me that you, Young Master Yu, have a fondness for me."
