Chapter 422: 370 The boy and girl twins are not Ye Cheng’s_2

"What about the Gu Family?" Xu Xuezi pulled out several wedding invitations from her bag and handed them out one by one, "Don’t talk to me about the Gu Family. I don’t want to hear anything about them for the rest of my life. Because of the Gu Family, I have become a joke in the mouths of those people. You have no idea, I can’t even dare to step outside anymore, fearing they’ll gossip about me behind my back."

Wan Baobao glanced at the wedding invitation, "You’ve really decided to marry Men Chao. I mean, Xuexue, even though the rumors about you and Gu Yecheng have been exaggerated, given your family background, you could still marry well," As long as it’s someone of lower standing than the Xu Family, there would still be people willing to marry you.

"I would rather marry Men Chao than lower my standards to marry someone of an ordinary background," Xu Xuezi scoffed, "If it weren’t for waiting for him, would I have ended up in this situation?"

"That Gu Yecheng too, abandoning you for a country girl, he must have water in his brain," Cheng Xiangyun toyed with the cup in her hand, "Like last time, that Su Xiaofeng, the one who saved Yu Shuiling, I heard she is Gu Yecheng’s wife, bet you didn’t see that coming."

No one knew where this piece of news came from. It was said that someone leaked a photo, taken during Gu Yecheng and Su Xiaofeng’s wedding photo session, so it was very likely true.

"That’s not even the funniest part," Wan Baobao chimed in, "The important thing is, those boy and girl twins she had aren’t Gu Yecheng’s. What was Gu Yecheng thinking, marrying such a woman? Not only that, but he also joyfully stepped in to play daddy. Could it be that Su Xiaofeng has something special about her that so captivates Gu Yecheng, he ignored his own status and lineage to play daddy?"

"There’s something you don’t understand, maybe Su Xiaofeng is an exceptionally captivating beauty, which made Gu Yecheng lose himself, insisting on marrying no one but her," Cheng Xiangyun giggled at the thought, "How about we find a chance to invite this Su Xiaofeng out to play and see what she’s really capable of. Xuexue, we also need to figure out where we lost to her."

...

The news that Xiaofeng’s twins were not Gu Yecheng’s spread rapidly, generating a lot of buzz in the circles, and Yan Junmei came back from work early, furious.

What was all this nonsense? It was infuriating.

Yan Junmei barged into Father Gu’s room, her words brimming with accusation, "Dad, initially Ye Cheng marrying Xiaofeng was something neither I nor the Prime Minister opposed, but you never mentioned that the twins Xiaofeng had weren’t Ye Cheng’s. Dad, Ye Cheng is young and foolish, but you should have intervened."

Yes, Ye Cheng had a health condition. Initially, when Ye Cheng married Xiaofeng, she did not mind Xiaofeng’s background, as long as Ye Cheng was willing to marry and have children.

She feared that Acheng might never marry and have children because of his illness.

But she never imagined that the children in Xiaofeng’s stomach were not Ye Cheng’s. Most importantly, everyone knew about it, yet she, as the mother-in-law, was the last to find out, which was utterly embarrassing.

She was Yan Junmei, the Prime Minister’s wife, Mrs. Gu.

At the sudden news, she was completely unprepared, feeling choked up with a breath stuck in her chest, unable to go up or down.

Father Gu looked at his daughter-in-law as she entered, put down his magnifying glass, stood up, and his gaze was sharp, the sternness of a superior figure.

He stared at her.

Yan Junmei felt her heart race under Father Gu’s gaze. Her father-in-law had also been a figure in his youth, where no one in the Imperial Capital dared to cross him, but today, she needed an explanation, "Dad, did you already know the twins weren’t Ye Cheng’s?"

The father-in-law definitely knew.

"Yes, I knew it all along," Father Gu turned his back to Yan Junmei and spoke, "From the time Xiaofeng became pregnant to her childbirth, and how she met Ye Cheng, I knew it all. Because I knew, I knew she was a good girl."

"Dad, I didn’t object to Ye Cheng marrying Xiaofeng, and our Gu family’s lineage is strong enough that we don’t need strategic marriages to thrive in the Imperial Capital. But, Dad, I can accept Xiaofeng’s poor family background, or even her humble origins, but I cannot accept that the children she bore are not of the Gu bloodline. Dad, what do you take Ye Cheng for, and what do you take our Gu family for? Dad, you weren’t like this before, you always cared about the integrity and reputation of the Gu family. Look now, overnight our Gu family has become the joke of the entire Imperial Capital, did you foresee this situation?"

Last time it was about Ye Cheng and Xu Xuezi, this time it was about Ye Cheng joyfully playing daddy. None of the news was in Ye Cheng’s favor.
