Chapter 501: Chapter 502: She was Wrong
“So, Auntie, have a look at what this is!” Gu Chi tossed the contraceptive pills to the bodyguard standing on the side, took out his phone, pressed a few buttons on it, and pointed at the wall opposite him. “Auntie, you better look closely.”
A video began playing on the white wall, projected from the phone.
A woman was seen walking to the pharmacy counter, wearing a mask and a hat.
She had a brief conversation with the pharmacist and then received three boxes of contraceptive pills from him.
After paying for the pills, she left.
Even though the woman in the video was wearing a mask and a hat, one could tell from her figure that she was Mother Zhang.
Zhang Heyuan couldn’t accept this reality. His vision became blurry, his body swayed, and barely managed to keep his balance.
His lips quivered, and his whole body shook. After stammering for a moment, he finally managed to yell at Mother Zhang in grief and anger. “Mom! Why, mom? Wasn’t it you who has always wanted a grandchild? Why did you secretly give birth control pills to Yiyi? How can Yiyi get pregnant and give you a grandchild after taking birth control pills? Are you insane?”
“No… No, it’s not like that!” Mother Zhang, her face deathly pale, vigorously shook her head. “That wasn’t me, that wasn’t me! It was someone they hired to impersonate me. They’re framing me! My son, you must believe me. I dream of having a grandchild, how could I give Yiyi birth control pills? They’re framing me!”
“Auntie, since you’re denying and insisting we framed you, let’s call the police,” Gu Chi said. “If you didn’t buy these birth control pills, then your fingerprints wouldn’t be on them. We will call the police and let them check if there are your fingerprints on these pills.”
Gu Chi looked at her, smiling, and said, “You know, Auntie, giving our Miss Qiao drugs without her consent is illegal! Once the police arrive and investigate, you’ll be going to jail!”
“No! You’re talking nonsense!” Mother Zhang’s face turned even whiter with fear. “Giving my daughter-in-law birth control pills isn’t illegal, you…”
She abruptly stopped mid-sentence, but it was already too late.
The surrounding crowd heard her own admission and had no doubt anymore, and their emotions ran high.
“Is this old witch crazy? Giving her daughter-in-law birth control pills, and then blaming her for not being able to have kids?”
“That poor girl is so gentle and soft. She must have had really bad luck to end up with such an insane mother-in-law.”
Listening to the discussions around her, Mother Zhang turned pale.
She shook her head frantically. “It wasn’t me! They’re framing me! I didn’t give her birth control pills!”
Someone from the watching crowd, infuriated, spat at her face. “What, do you think we’re all idiots? You just admitted it a moment ago and now you’re trying to take it back? Too late!”
Zhang Heyuan’s vision went black, his body swaying dangerously.
He couldn’t accept this truth, looking at his mother in disbelief, voice trembling as he asked, “Why, Mom? Why?”
Thinking of all the times over the past few years that Qiao Yi had to run to the hospital, endure ridicule, and took all those different cures for infertility that his mother had found, he collapsed onto the floor.
Qiao Yi collapsed to the ground, crying so hard she could barely breathe.
She was really wrong.
Her grandfather had warned her that if you don’t listen to the words of the elderly, you’ll suffer the consequences.
Her grandfather also said that he had seen more of the world than she had and he could tell right away that Zhang Heyuan’s mother was a selfish and evil woman.
