Chapter 165: Chapter 165: Are You Confused?
“Think of a way, what way can we think of? That vile, unfilial child wants to turn himself in – does he want us all to be killed?” Liu Rui was very worried and even treated her beloved daughter more harshly than usual.
Liu Yushui also strongly agreed with Liu Rui’s words. If they couldn’t handle this situation properly, their whole family would end up suffering.
“We have to think of a solution, regardless if we could or not! What else can we do, mother? The Zhou family finally agreed to marry
off, if my brother’s actions cause my marriage to be called off, I won’t want to live!” She clenched her teeth, talking to Liu Rui.
The Zhou family, who valued their reputation so highly, if they knew her brother was involved in a murder case, wouldn’t they imdiately send soone to end the engagent, wouldn’t they? Even if the child in her belly is important, it is not as important as their reputation.
“How can it be over? Your marriage is a done deal. The Zhou family shouldn’t even dream of breaking off the engagent!” Liu Rui retorted, staring at her daughter.
If her son was already in such a state and her daughter’s engagent was also put off, their Liu Family would really be in dire straits. This engagent must proceed as planned.
“If the Zhou family dares to call off the engagent, I will expose the fact that Zhou Liang got you pregnant, and then see who would be too ashad to show their face!”
“Mother, you…”
Liu Yushui fell silent, gritting her teeth.
“Mother, how can you not understand? Why do you think I insisted on Zhou Liang? Do you think they agreed because I’m carrying his child?”
“Then what else could it be for?” Liu Rui asked her back.
The child she carries is the great-grandchild of the Zhou family. Who could be more important than this child?
“Elder Mr. Zhou agreed to this marriage to keep
from pestering Zhou Liang.” Liu Yushui replied, grinding her teeth.
Although she didn’t want to admit that the child in her womb ant nothing to the Zhou family, it was a fact. That was why she was relentless about Zhou Liang.
“The child is in my belly. If the Zhou family doesn’t admit it’s theirs, who would dare say that the child is from their family? Mother, are you confused?”
The things that Lin Caisang could think of, Liu Yushui naturally could think of too. As a woman feeling a threat to her lifelong happiness, she obviously knew what she had to do.
She initially thought she could first marry into Zhou family, then fight for her place within. With her intelligence, it should have been entirely possible.
Who would have thought that before she could do anything, her elder brother would be caught in a scandal that would stain their reputation forever, landing them with a murder case that they couldn’t wash off no matter what.
This might as well take her life.
“This… The Zhou family wouldn’t dare!”
Liu Rui took a deep breath, forcing the words out through clenched teeth.
But it fell short in terms of intensity as she realized the truth in Liu Yushui’s words. No matter how much of a fuss she made, if the Zhou family wouldn’t acknowledge it, they, the Liu Family, would be the ones to lose face.
“What wouldn’t the Zhou family dare?” Liu Yushui, her face pale, asked back.
“Yushui, what will you do then? Quickly think of a way to save your elder brother.” Before Liu Rui could speak, the invisible presence Liu Baixiao asked urgently.
Liu Rui always doted on her daughter, but it was different for Liu Baixiao. He only had his son in his eyes, and he saw Liu Qingshui as his future hope.
