seemed to remember something, snuffed out his cigarette, and said, "This is unprecedented."He ascended the stairs, Li Qin's eyes welling up with tears as she watched his back."I heard she really like..."The doctors all said this child couldn't be kept, why can't you believe the doctors' judgment!"

Fu Jing calmly analyzed, "I've only slept with you once, that night at the hotel. It was an accident. I clearly reminded you to take birth control pills, why didn't you listen In that situation, the chances of having an unhealthy child are too high. You can't blame everything on someone else."

"I don't believe it! These are all excuses you made up to cover for Fu Yan, I don't believe any of it!" She was emotionally agitated and frantically smashed things on the ground.

"Huo Jingshu!"

Huo Mingzheng strode forward, he glanced at the broken glass on the ground, his face cold and stern, "What do you want to do"

"I want to put her in jail!"

Huo Jing shu leaned against the pillow, gasping for breath, her face pale and weak, making those eyes even more red and piercing.

Du Xiner rushed forward, her heart filled with compassion: “As long as I’m here, I won’t let you suffer this humiliation in vain.”

She looked at Huo Mingzheng, for her daughter she had gone all out, "A-zheng, although I married into the Huo family, my natal family in Yanjing City is also influential. If you are unwilling to stand up for Jingshu, then I will do it myself!"

Fù Yān bit her pale lips. She couldn't go to jail; she was pregnant. What would happen to her baby if she went to prison

No, absolutely not.

This was the first time she looked to Huo Mingzheng for help, hoping he would give her a hand.

However, Li Qin suddenly walked over and stood between her and Huo Mingzheng.

She stood beside Huo Mingzheng and advised Du Xiner, "Fourth Aunt, we are all family. Whatever happens inside our home should be settled within the family. There's no need to bring it to court. Jing Shu is young, don't you know the consequences of such actions as a senior"

"If it gets out that she's the one who caused this, then the news of the Huo family falling apart will spread. What do you think people outside the family will think about the Huo family when they hear about this"

Du Xiner took a deep breath, putting on an air of dignity. "Li Qin, you've always been well-behaved and obedient. I know you're doing this for the Huo family's good, and I won't make things difficult for you. But this is our family affair, and since you haven't married into our family yet, please don't interfere."

Li Qin's face flushed red and then white as she was scolded.

She looked downcast, her gaze so vulnerable that it made one want to protect her.

Huo Mingzheng pulled her behind him, saying coldly, "Since Aunt Four knows it's a family matter, taking it to court won't be beneficial for you."

"But are we just going to sit here and take this humiliation Your fourth uncle may not be very capable, but you can't let others bully our family like this!" Du Xinru said, tears welling up in her eyes.

Li Qin couldn't help but speak up for Huo Mingzheng: "Fourth Aunt, you are Ah Zheng's uncle and aunt, and his cousin. There's no way he would allow others to bully you. Please don't say such hurtful things."

At a glance, Fu Yan saw Li Qin tugging at Huo Mingzheng's sleeve as if seeking protection.

And Huo Mingzheng didn't pull away her hand, letting her hold on. His broad shoulders shielded her, blocking all harm from the outside world.

She suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, and the cold that surged up from her feet made her body stiff.

Only then did she realize that Huo Mingzheng wouldn't help her.

He did it to save face for the Huo family.

She pressed gently on her aching back, her eyes suddenly stinging. Standing at the back of the crowd, she felt utterly alone, like a criminal about to be sentenced.

Just then, Cao Fang walked in.

He glanced at Fu Yan with complex eyes, then walked to Huo Mingzheng's side, "Huo Zong, Fu Hanlin is here."as Fu Yan who stole your position, but have you ever thought about your own problems I kept the commercial manager position for you all this time because you are simply incapable of handling it.""Wher...
