Chapter 821 -821: Act Out a Scene of Deep Sisterly Love
“I don’t believe you. Since you say it’s my seed, fine, I’ll treat it as such, so, I might as well kill you now and take two lives with one corpse!” Ye Qilan suddenly advanced, grasping Cao Shiyu’s throat.
Cao Shiyu felt choked in that moment and once again sensed the whiff of death.
“Brother-in-law, I can… explain…”
Understanding the implication of Liu Qingyin’s words, Ye Qilan loosened his grip slightly, his lips curling with scorn, “Let’s hear it then, how do you plan to explain?”
Cao Shiyu pushed Ye Qilan away and coughed violently for a while before she could breathe easily, “This isn’t your child, it’s, it’s the child of another man. I cannot disclose the father’s identity, but I can take a poisonous oath, this child truly isn’t yours.”
“Fine, then make the most vicious oath you can!” Ye Qilan said leisurely as he watched Cao Shiyu.
Under Ye Qilan’s intimidating gaze, Cao Shiyu reluctantly swore, “I, Liu Qingyin…”
“Just say you personally take the oath,” Ye Qilan interrupted Cao Shiyu.
Cao Shiyu, having no choice, continued, “I personally swear here and now, the father of the child in my womb is not Ye Qilan. If I break this oath, I shall not die a good death!”
“Modify the oath further, change it to dying after being violated by dozens of men!” Ye Qilan’s laugh was malicious.
Cao Shiyu revised her oath accordingly, “…If I break this oath, I shall die after being violated by dozens of men!”
Ye Qilan kept observing Cao Shiyu’s expression and noticed that this woman was making such a venomous oath without a hint of hesitation. Having long been a client of psychologists, he naturally could infer someone’s feelings from their expressions.
Seeing that Cao Shiyu exhibited no sign of guilt while taking the poisonous oath, it implied she wasn’t afraid of making such an oath. Put another way, the flesh and blood inside her indeed had no connection to him; that’s why she dared to take such a vile oath without hesitating.
“Brother-in-law, I will clarify things with my sister. I won’t let her continue to misunderstand you, affecting the relationship between you two,” Cao Shiyu sincerely added.
As long as Su Hongxing was willing to believe her, how Su Hongxing would die by her hand was just a matter of her word.
“I will choose to believe you once more. If you dare to damage the relationship between her and me again, I will make you wish you were dead!” Ye Qilan said before storming out and slamming the door.
Su Hongxing could continue to face this deceitful woman and put on a show, but he admitted he couldn’t do it.
Waiting downstairs, Su Hongxing saw Ye Qilan come down and asked in a low voice, “How did it go?”
“Now I’m sure, she indeed didn’t steal my seed. I have no idea whose child she’s carrying though. Do you think her child has some other purpose?” Ye Qilan said pensively.
A woman like Cao Shiyu wouldn’t get up early for nothing; she must have a benefit in getting pregnant.
It also means that Cao Shiyu’s child has some sort of use, likely aimed against him and Su Hongxing.
“Most likely there is a scheme. For now, we play along with her, find out Liu Yuan’s whereabouts, and save Qingyin, that’s what matters. She’s bound to contact Liu Yuan. We need to keep a close watch on her to quickly save Qingyin,” Su Hongxing whispered back.
Since they couldn’t risk arousing Cao Shiyu’s suspicion and have her tip off Liu Yuan, fearing that Liu Qingyin might be moved out of Taicheng, she decided to play along with Cao Shiyu’s ruse of sisterly affection.
As for why Cao Shiyu would casually find a man to impregnate her, Su Hongxing had a hunch but wasn’t sure whether to tell Ye Qilan.
