Under Xiao Hua’s direct gaze, Tian Ruyi could only poke her head out from behind her brother and answer, "Yes, my name is Tian Ruyi."
"Your brother said that you’re already pregnant?"
Tian Ruyi glanced at Xiao Zhu, then shyly lowered her head, "Yes."
"Then let me ask you, whose child are you carrying?"
Xiao Zhu tried to speak, but Xiao Hua glared at him, forcing him to shut his mouth again.
Tian Ruyi’s eyes filled with grievance, "Of course, it’s your brother’s."
"You say it’s my brother’s? Do you have any proof? Who knows if you haven’t slept with another man and then pinned it on my brother?"
Xiao Zhu wanted to speak again, but just as he was about to open his mouth, he suddenly felt Mengyu staring at him from leaning on a pillar, sending a chill through his body, rendering him speechless.
Tian Ruyi became angry, "How can you say I have no proof? I still have the underwear from the day I was with your brother!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhu’s eyes widened in shock: She actually kept the underwear from that day, what does this mean?
They were clearly in mutual affection, and it was only in the heat of passion that things happened between them, yet her keeping the underwear seemed like she was always ready to accuse him?
Xiao Zhu recalled what Tian Xianhua had said to him, "If you do not marry my sister to me, I will accuse you of molesting my sister and make you face the gun."
Could it be, all of this was premeditated by them?
A sense of shame from being schemed against by his beloved overwhelmed Xiao Zhu’s mind as he stared at Tian Ruyi, his eyes reddening.
Seeing Xiao Zhu’s expression, Tian Ruyi panicked and hurriedly said, "Zhuzi, brother, I didn’t mean it, I, I didn’t intend to scheme against you."
But, it was my brother who wanted to scheme against you.
Tian Xianhua wanted to speak, but Xiao Hua interjected, "Tian Ruyi, it’s just a pair of shorts, even if my brother slept with you, a woman who behaves so shamelessly before marriage and messes around with men, who knows if you have other men?
I dare say, the child in your belly isn’t my brother’s at all.
Maybe, even you don’t know whose child you’re carrying! After all, a woman like you who has no self-respect, who knows how many men there are?"
"Xiao Hua, how can you say such things about me?" Tian Ruyi shouted angerily, "Do you know how important a woman’s reputation is? By slandering my reputation, are you trying to kill me?"
Xiao Hua yelled loudly, "I’m trying to kill you? It’s you who are trying to kill yourself!"
He pointed at Tian Ruyi, "I’ll ask you, you called my brother to chop wood, he stayed at your house, and indeed he was drunk, but my brother remembers very clearly that he climbed into bed to sleep on his own.
That is to say, when my brother went to bed, you were not around; you entered the room where my brother was sleeping later. If you, a girl, enter the room of a young man while he is sleeping, what else could you want if not to sleep with him?
A woman like you who can’t resist men probably slept with who knows how many men. My brother is foolish to have been deceived by you to go chop wood.
In reality, you must have had something bad going with another man and then wanted my brother to take responsibility by tricking him into a fait accompli, right? Tell me, if you’re not debasing yourself, what is it then?
You also said I’m tarnishing your reputation to kill you, a shameless woman like you, what’s your reputation worth? Even if your reputation is ruined, it’s caused by your own actions. Even if you die, it’s you who have killed yourself!
My sister-in-law must be a woman of integrity and self-respect. You, a woman who debases herself and shows no self-love, absolutely do not match my brother. So, a woman like you, one who sneaks into men’s rooms and steals men, don’t even think about entering the clean threshold of the Xiao Family!"
