Chapter 545: Chapter 545: So The Child is the Big Brother’s
Lu Lingche was taken aback: “What do you mean?”
“What I mean is, President Lu, you only slept with my daughter once, right? And, you seemed to have no memory of just this one time, am I right?”
Lu Lingche’s eyes hardened like ice: “How do you know?”
Yuanshan was also staring intensely at Lan Ruikang, this matter, apart from him and Lu Lingche, no one else should know about it!
Lan Ruitang, under their combined gaze, did not waver; he muttered in a low voice: “The one who drugged you, made you unconscious, was Yuyi.”
A chilling wave swept across Lu Lingche’s body.
He had suspected many people; he even thought it could have been his assistant Yuanshan, who was always by his side. He had also suspected his own mother.
Yet, he never once doubted Lan Yuyi!
Because she was the woman his older brother loved dearly. While his brother was alive, Lan Yuyi was always gentle and composed, she would hardly raise her voice. His brother had said countless times how kind-hearted and innocent she was.
He never could have imagined, that just a month after his brother’s death, Lan Yuyi drugged him, leading to them sleeping together! It made him feel guilty towards his brother all this while!
Fury spewed within him, the urge to kill barely restricted!
He demanded in a cold voice: “What else? Who’s the child she’s carrying?”
Lan Ruikang was somewhat taken aback: “You’ve suspected it wasn’t your child for some time now, haven’t you?”
Lu Lingche broke out into a chilling laugh, baring his teeth: “So it really isn’t mine.”
“Indeed, it’s not yours. The child… is your elder brother Lu Shengqing’s.”
Lu Lingche’s cold laugh froze on his face.
The child was his brother’s!
With lightning speed, past scenarios flashed through his mind. Suddenly, all the unreasonable events appeared justified.
Lan Yuyi suddenly started acting kindly and being close to him after his brother’s death.
His mother considered Lan Yuyi as her own, insisted he divorce Qiao Yin, forced him to marry Lan Yuyi, she even stayed in the hospital tirelessly taking care of Lan Yuyi. Her importance evidently exceeded that of her biological mother, Wen Bilan!
When his brother was on his deathbed, he didn’t tell him who his killer was, didn’t ask him to take care of their parents. But he did emphasize that he must take good care of Lan Yuyi. Did he already know Lan Yuyi was pregnant then!
His father requested him to hold a grand wedding with Lan Yuyi to replace his brother, not only to fulfill his brother’s dream, but more importantly to make it legitimate for the child in Lan Yuyi’s stomach to be born into the Lu Family!
Since they always favored his brother, they naturally favored the brother’s child as well.
Once, Qiao Lainan inadvertently mentioned the duration of Lan Yuyi’s pregnancy, Lane Yuyi’s facial expression immediately changed. So, the child’s duration really was problematic!
The funny thing was, despite all the irregularities, he never once doubted Lan Yuyi!
He even thought he had truly hurt Lan Yuyi, assumed that he had outrageously slept with his brother’s woman. He had even gone to his brother’s grave in the middle of the night, repenting for his actions.
To atone for the harm he had done to Lan Yuyi, he proposed a divorce to Qiao Yin.
As a result, both he and Qiao Yin paid a terrible price!
His actual child… was gone.
No wonder his mother colluded with Qiao Haidong, forcing Qiao Yin to abort the child. She must have been afraid that once he had his own child, he would not love his brother’s. Was she afraid that his child would compete with his brother’s for the Lu Family’s assets!
Lu Lingche wanted to laugh, but he couldn’t.
His grandmother once warned him that not long after his brother’s death, Lan Yuyi climbed into his bed. She questioned how Lan Yuyi could be a good person and advised him to careful not be deceived.
How did he answer at that time?
He had said that the person who could sell him had not yet been born!
How laughable, he was really arrogant and thoughtless. He was played like a fiddle, and in the end, he still foolishly believed he was the smartest one, dismissing his grandmother’s warning as unimportant.
