After saying that, Qu Mengjun turned around and tried to pull Wei Yan back to the room.
If Wei Yan hadn’t stubbornly refused to move and insisted on staying where he was, the courtyard might have been left with Lin Dineng and his group awkwardly standing there.
“Wait, you’re going on maternity leave… why are you dragging me along?!”
Lowering his voice as much as possible so Lin Dineng wouldn’t hear, Wei Yan tried hard to shake off Qu Mengjun’s hand.
Even though things had already reached this point and his original plan had completely failed…
His heart felt cold, but even so, he didn’t want to die. Who would willingly accept death like this? He still wanted to struggle!
And Wei Yan knew… even at this stage, he still had a chance.
As long as Lin Dineng didn’t find out that he and Qu Mengjun had slept together.
“If you don’t come with me, how can I guarantee I’ll actually get maternity leave? Dear, you don’t seriously think that just because we did it once last night and once this morning, I’d immediately get pregnant with twins… do you?”
As if she could hear his thoughts, Qu Mengjun deliberately raised her voice, clearly trying to scare him.
“You… I… you!”
That single sentence almost made Wei Yan faint on the spot.
He hurriedly glanced outside. Fortunately, Lin Dineng didn’t seem to have heard their conversation.
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Wei Yan felt as though a sharp sickle had just been pressed against his neck.
“N-no, that… we haven’t even held hands before, right? How could you possibly be pregnant? Mengjun, you’re really funny, haha…”
A stiff smile hung on his face.
Not only in this life, even in his previous life, he had never even touched her hand.
For a moment, Lin Dineng even wondered if he had misheard.
That was Qu Mengjun… his fiancée.
Although their marriage had been arranged solely by Qu Jing, without any emotional foundation, she had never treated him like this before.
Why had her attitude changed so drastically in just two days?
“Why do you assume the child must be yours? Just because you couldn’t sleep with me, does that mean no one else could?”
Tilting her head, Qu Mengjun looked at Lin Dineng coldly, her voice intentionally raised, as if stating an obvious fact.
Boom… Visit g.com for the full chapter.
The background seemed to darken, and a bolt of lightning struck behind Lin Dineng.
At those words, it felt as though his entire world had collapsed.
“You mean… his? How is that possible? Do you actually like him?”
In his previous life, Lin Dineng had let down many people.
Consumed by his desire for revenge, he had treated them merely as stepping stones.
To master the ancient martial art known as the Sunflower Manual, he had not only castrated himself but also sacrificed several young and beautiful women, using their blood as a catalyst.
Naturally, when the truth was exposed, all he received was hatred from everyone.
Now reborn, having experienced failure once, Lin Dineng had planned to turn over a new leaf and treat them well, hoping to win their genuine affection.
But right at the start… this was the attitude he received from his former fiancée?
Perhaps this was his retribution…
His emotions visibly dimmed. It was clear that Lin Dineng had fallen into despair.
At the same time, Wei Yan’s expression darkened just as much.
Not only had he slept with the female lead… the protagonist had found out…
And worst of all, Qu Mengjun had personally told him.
If he were the protagonist, he felt like he’d jump into a river tomorrow from the shock.
[Warning! The plot has severely deviated from the original plotline. Host must immediately return the plot to its proper course! Otherwise, the system will directly trigger the female lead’s darkening and drain you dry!]
A deafening alarm blared in his mind.
Wei Yan wasn’t afraid of being drained dry by Qu Mengjun, but if things continued like this, he might end up with a hole in his chest by tonight.
He didn’t want to die so young!
Think! Think!
If the system said so, there had to be a way to turn things around!
“Ah!”
Suddenly, Wei Yan’s eyes lit up as he came up with an idea.
“Hahaha! So you’re Lin Dineng? I’ve heard about you, but I never realized you were this stupid.”
“Think about it. I chased her for seven or eight years, and she never accepted me. Use your brain—do you really think she’d suddenly fall for me overnight? I’m just holding something over her. You can’t even figure that out?” Read the latest chapters at g.com.
Laughing arrogantly like a true villain, Wei Yan deliberately acted as if he had accidentally revealed the truth while mocking the protagonist.
The effect was immediate.
Hearing this, Lin Dineng’s eyes lit up.
So that’s it!
Of course! How could he not have thought of it?
There was no way Qu Mengjun’s attitude could change so quickly!
Thanks to this idiot Wei Yan revealing the truth!
The young master of the Wei Family really was as foolish as rumored!
With his confidence restored, Lin Dineng straightened his back.
“Mengjun, don’t worry! You don’t have to fear whatever leverage this bastard has over you. You must have realized by now that I’m no longer the same Lin Dineng as before! If he dares touch you, I’ll make his entire family pay with their lives!”
As his voice fell, Lin Dineng clapped his hands, and the burly men behind him began cracking their knuckles.
In the living room, the Qu Family maids stepped forward to block them.
In an instant, the atmosphere became tense, like a drawn bowstring ready to snap.
“So you believe him just because he said I was being threatened? Then if he told you I have the same thing as you down there, would you believe that too?”
Faced with Qu Mengjun’s cold question, any normal person would recognize the sarcasm.
But Lin Dineng subconsciously glanced downward.
He wasn’t truly stupid… just slow to react.
After slapping himself, he quickly came to his senses.
Watching this, Wei Yan didn’t even know how to respond.
What kind of brain did this protagonist have?
Just those perfectly shaped legs alone—could a man have that?
And as for what she had… Wei Yan knew it all too well.
Completely smooth… not a single trace of anything. Even the barren Arctic wasn’t that clean.
