Chapter 108: You’re Pregnant?!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Old Madam Li only recovered after coughing for quite a bit.

The little one walked up to him, stood on the sofa to give her a gentle rub on the back.

“Great-grandma, do you know my Mommy can do everything? She can cook, do housework and she is also an excellent fashion designer. Most importantly…” He added softly, “She will give me a sister!”

Old Madam Li turned, staring in disbelief at Ji Weixi’s stomach. “Y-you’re pregnant?”

Ji Weixi was about to answer when Li Shaoling put his palm over her flat stomach and spoke first, “Not yet”.

“Soon.” He then added after some thought.

Either way, it wouldn’t be too long since the Li family’s bangle was now in their hands.

He was a little excited just thinking about it.

On the other hand, Ji Weixi’s stomach felt scalded as if someone was branding it, and she gritted her teeth. “Who would have a child with you, Li Shaoling!”

Li Shaoling simply glanced at her wrist and lifted a brow. “What’s there to be shy about? You’ve already met my parents.”

Aaaaaargh!

Ji Weixi was blushing to a crimson but not yielding. “Nonsense! I’m not shy!”

Li Shaoling chuckled and took her into his arms. “Good girl.”

The two of them were glued so intimately as if no one was watching, while Old Madam Li looked on as if someone was forcing her to eat dung.

Both her grandson and great-grandson had been bewitched by that woman!

***

Old Madam Li had already instructed her servants to prepare dinner as the skies darkened.

The little one was playing with his new toys on bare feet on top of the living room carpet, while Ji Weixi swiped through the news on the sofa in boredom.

The Lin Xiaoman scandal appeared to be escalating, even taking up most headlines—the effect certainly should not be underestimated.

However, Li Shaoling did not say a word even if it could affect CBS considerably.

How could he not give an opinion as the president?

JI Weixi sighed quietly as she turned off her phone.

Still, there was concern in Li Shaoling’s eyes as he looked at her worried face. “Having troubles?”

Ji Weixi shook her head.

“I’ll solve it, don’t worry.” His voice was like a refreshing stream, washing over her anxious heart.

“No.” She refused.

“Why?” Li Shaoling sounded upset.

“I mishandled the case in the first place. Either way, I’ve talked to Lin Xiaoman’s manager—I will uncover the truth so as to provide closure.”

Ji Weixi’s every word was serious and firm, just as her gaze was determined.

Li Shaoling’s heart softened and he smiled. “Alright. But come to me when you need help.

He was aware of her strong attitude, never depending on others to handle her affairs.

If he stubbornly insisted on helping her, she would not merely be angry.

Because the woman had mighty self-esteem, all he had to do was stand behind her and quietly shield her.

For her part, Ji Weixi was quite surprised that Li Shaoling would agree to her solution so easily.

That’s not the overbearing president’s way!

That was when an old but strong voice spoke out.

“Ji Weixi, come here!”

Old Madam Li slid her a glance while her servants helped her upstairs.

Ji Weixi turned to Li Shaoling by reflex.

He smiled faintly with a tender look in his eyes. “Go, I’ll wait.”

Ji Weixi nodded and followed Old Madam Li upstairs.

Opening a sculpted red door, Old Madam Li told her servant, “Leave us!”

She nodded. “Yes, Old Madam.”

After the servant closed the door behind her, Ji Weixi stood her ground and coolly asked, “What is it this time?”

“I’m in awe of your methods,” Old Madam Li said with a face full of disgust. “But did you think you could just walk into the Li family just because got your child to take my bangle? Let me tell you now—that’s impossible! Don’t even think about marrying into my family as long as I live!”

She spoke a little too quickly, and had to wheeze for some time after she spoke.

Meanwhile, Ji Weixi nonchalantly took a seat on the sofa, folding her long legs and smiled. “Sure, if that’s what you want. Let’s see who would live longer.”

“You.” Old Madam Li’s face went white immediately.

After all, she was now hanging between life and death and looked like she could not last a moment longer, whereas Ji Weixi was barely into her twenties and still had much life in her.

Why not see who would outlive the other, then?

“Ji Weixi, let’s make a deal.” Knowing that it was impossible to be heavy-handed against her, Old Madam Li softened. “Tell me what you want. I could grant your wish as long as it’s not too ridiculous, all you have to do is leave Shaoling and give Jiayu back to the Li family!”

That same old line. What a stubborn old bag.

“I want all of the Li family’s assets. Can you give me that?”

“You are really shameless!” Old Madam Li’s eyes turned fierce at once. “I have already paid you a hundred million last time, and now you tell me you want all of the Li family! Your greed knows no bounds!”

“Likewise. It’s quite disgusting how you keep demanding to have my son returned to the Li family.”

Old Madam Li held her chest with a pained look, taking a moment to recover before saying, “Ji Weixi, I can give you ownership of Hengyuan Group. What do you think? It belongs to the Li family too.”

“No can do.” Ji Weixi shook her head and sighed dramatically. “You are aware of what ghastly business childbirth is, what with the skin aging and my figure going deformed and such, how much sacrifice that has been! And you’re trying to distract me with Hengyuan? What I want is CBS stocks, get it?”

“Get out!” Old Madam Li roared, her neck going red in rage. “Don’t let me see you again! Disgusting! Why did Shaoling fall for a woman like you!? Such an embarrassment to the Li family!”

Ji Weixi’s goal in the first place was to annoy Old Madam Li. Now that she got what she wanted, she stood up feeling pleasant, and smiled most courteously. “Goodbye!”

Her long feet were almost at the door when Old Madam Li spoke out coldly behind her. “Shaoling has been cursed as a bastard since he was a child. He had already been miserable enough, and now you would have your son take the same path!”

Ji Weixi paused, stunned.

“I gave Shaoling everything! He’s nothing without me! He could well be still in the streets without me! And that’s only because I had a change of heart and allowed him to return to the Li family all those years ago, and he had been thankful and obedient towards me. But now that he would give up on inheriting the family’s fortune and go against me just because of you, I’ll tell you this: I would rather destroy you than let you have him!”

“Ji Weixi, you would definitely regret it if you don’t hand over your son, because he is Li Shaoling’s child, a bastard’s son! You certainly wouldn’t want him to have a chip on his shoulder at such a young age, don’t you?! And the only way is to return to the Li family, and acknowledge his roots!”

Heh.

Bastard this, bastard that!

She used it almost too naturally.

Still, Ji Weixi did not expect that Li Shaoling was born out of wedlock. After all, rich houses always kept a strict control over their direct line of descent, even if it was a rather old-fashioned doctrine.

That being said, everything else that old bag said did not surprise her.

And Li Shaoling would certainly feel sad if he was there.

At first, she believed that Old Madam Li was just mean, but her heart had remained dedicated to Li Shaoling.

That thought was only too laughable now!
