I said coldly, "You are pregnant now. Take good care of yourself in the days to come."
Shen Ning quickly expressed her gratitude, "Thank you, Madam!"
Madam?
Ha!
I’m hardly a madam!
I replied indifferently, "Get up."
At my words, Shen Ning promptly stood up.
Just then, Lin Han approached.
Upon seeing that Shen Ning had entered the room, his expression instantly changed!
He hurried to my side and whispered, "A Jin, I'm sorry."
I replied coldly, "Lin Han, what's there left to say now?"
"A Jin." He glanced at me and said, "Let me explain..."
What is there to explain?
He looked at me again and said, "A Jin, trust me. I will make it up to you!"
"Lin Han," I said coldly, "if it weren't for that old fool from Duke's Residence protecting her, I would have skinned her alive!"
"A Jin." Lin Han looked at me with concern and said, "Don't worry; I won't let her bully you!"
Her ungrateful son has bullied me!
How can she still bully me after that?
“Lin Han, since it has come to this, let us go to the government office tomorrow to handle the divorce.”
Seeing my firm attitude, Lin Han did not press the issue further.
But before he left, he said to me, “A Jin, whether you believe it or not, I am sincere towards you!”
What good is sincerity?
Can sincerity justify having children with another woman behind my back?
If sincerity can lead a person to become so despicable, then what use is such sincerity?
I don’t want it!
So the next day, I had Yao Dong return to the Duke's Residence.
She found my elder brother Wen Yunqi and asked him to send a guard to help me with the matter.
The guard’s name was A Si.
In our childhood, we were like siblings.
Later, he joined the army to serve the court.
A Si is a good person.
He understood that I had called him to investigate Lin Han's mistress and readily agreed to help.
A few days later, A Si brought me news.
It turned out that the woman was named Shen Ning.
In her childhood, she was a neighbor of Lin Han.
She had always admired Lin Han.
Later, Lin Han's mother, in an effort to prevent him from marrying me, deliberately sent her to Lin Han's bed.
Lin Han had intended to kill her, but under his mother's threat of death, he gave up.
Eventually, Shen Ning became pregnant.
Lin Han's mother then demanded that he take her as a concubine.
However, Lin Han refused to agree to it.
In the end, he brought Shen Ning back to the capital but kept her hidden away.
When A Si shared all the information about Shen Ning with me, the last remnants of my love for Lin Han finally extinguished...
From that day on, my attitude towards Lin Han grew cold.
He, however, seemed unconcerned.
Every day, he continued to treat me well as he always had.
I even began to doubt whether he had truly done anything wrong to me.
Yet just as I was gradually lowering my guard against him, I found out that I was pregnant!
When the royal physician informed me of my pregnancy, Lin Han appeared to be overjoyed!
This left me utterly perplexed!
After all, I had just discovered that he had an affair; how could he possibly be so happy?
Unless... he was putting on an act!
With this thought, my suspicions about his motives deepened!
So, I had Yao Dong take the leftover medicinal residue to another doctor for examination, only to find that it had been mixed with Musk!
It turned out he never wanted me to become pregnant!
The reason he didn't want me to conceive was that he wanted that woman to bear his child!
No wonder her child was already five years old!
It seemed that from the very beginning, he had intended to deceive me!
