My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 771 - : 771, is my aunt pregnant?

Chapter 771: 771, is my aunt pregnant?

Upon seeing Huo Jingshen so calm and composed, Su Wanwan finally lost her composure and pinched his arm fiercely. “I’m asking you a question! Think of a solution quickly!”

Huo Jingshen: “…”

He cast a glance at her, his tone mocking. “You want me to come up with a solution?”

“Yes.”

Huo Jingshen narrowed his eyes, then finally spoke, “Actually, this matter is quite simple.”

“What do you mean?” Su Wanwan furrowed her little brows, almost frantic with worry.

...

“Let’s go.” Huo Jingshen pulled her as he started walking outside.

The area was crowded into a huge circle, not only by the guests but also the servants and bodyguards had gathered around.

However, once they stepped outside, Su Wanwan realised that there were actually people who were not interested in watching the spectacle.

In the farthest corner of the hall, a man sat by himself, pouring and drinking his own wine.

He was dressed in a tidy black suit, had a flat-top haircut, was slightly thin, bonny, and seemed to be in his early thirties.

“Sicheng.” Huo Jingshen called out.

Ming Sicheng raised his head, his profound eyes slightly squinted.

“Yiyi.”

After a standoff, the patriarch of the Mo family tried to mediate. “Since your aunt has sworn, this necklace must not be the one your mother had, you must have mistaken it.”

“Then how do you explain the disappearance of my necklace? Did it sprout wings and fly away?” Mo Weiyi held onto the necklace unyieldingly. “If my aunt didn’t steal it, it must be a gift from someone!”

His catlike eyes were fixated on Xu Jing. “Who gave it to you? Speak!”

Xu Jing’s body shrank abruptly.

“Xu Jing!” The elderly Mrs. Xu pressured, “What happened? Won’t you speak up?”

“Mum, I really did buy this necklace myself…I can certainly afford the few tens of thousands…'” Xu Jing’s explanation was weak.

Mrs. Xu’s face was tense. After swiftly considering, she held out her hand, “Yiyi, give the necklace to me.”

Mo Weiyi hesitated for a moment.

She moistened her lips then still handed the necklace over to the elderly woman.

Mrs. Xu held the necklace under the light for examination.

The green jade reflected soft and gentle, moving slightly would cause a dazzling light to refract off it.

The texture was smooth and cool to the touch.

Mrs. Xu was unsure and furrowed her brows deep, when suddenly the low and calm voice of a man echoed.

“Let me have a look.”

Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice.

Upon recognizing the person, someone shouted out, “It’s Ming Sicheng!”

The current president of the Ming Group, who’s in charge of the Ming Family’s jewelry business in Nancheng, Ming Sicheng.

Another person chimed in, “That’s right, the Ming family is in the jewelry business, right? Ming has a deep knowledge of jade, if he takes a look, won’t we know if it’s real or fake?”

Exactly, whether the jade is real jadeite or imitation material, those in the business can tell at a glance.”

“Makes sense!”

“…”

The people present were all well-known and influential figures from Nancheng. However, when it comes to jewelry, most people only have a superficial understanding and can’t guarantee to confirm the authenticity with 100% certainty.

If authenticity needs to be certified, the judgment of an authority figure is undoubtedly needed.

The Ming family is in the business of jewelry and gemstones, and Ming Sicheng, as the current heir of the prestigious family who inherited the management rights of Ming Group’s jewelry, undoubtedly holds the highest authority in the jewelry and gemstone industry.

Mrs. Xu asked, “Yiyi, shall we…have Mr. Ming help to verify it?”

Mo Weiyi nodded.

Xu Jing next to her also did not object.

Old Mr. Mo sighed silently and could only say, “In that case, we will trouble Young Master Ming to help verify it.”

“Honoured to do so.” Ming Sicheng approached with his long, fair hands extended.

He was handsome and gave out a gentle vibe.

Especially with his exquisite eyes and eyebrows, coupled with his jade-like temperament, his every move exuded a refined elegance.

At that moment, he held the jadeite necklace and after just one glance, he declared, “Indeed, it’s a genuine Ice-type Imperial Jadeite. Their number is dwindling nowadays. This necklace, conservatively estimated, starts at 30 million RMB in the market.”

He spoke slowly at a moderate pace without raising his tone.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, an audible gasp ran through the crowd.

Everyone knew the Mo family was rich, but a casual necklace was worth 30 million?

Astonishing.

They were indeed irredeemably ostentatious.

Mo Yaoxiong was also taken aback and rushed over, “Young Master Ming, are you sure you did not misjudge it?”

Ming Sicheng looked at him, his eyes indifferent, but a sense of pressure washed over Mo Yaoxiong, “Is Mr. Mo doubting my expertise?”

Mo Yaoxiong: “…”

The Ming is also a prominent family in Nancheng, and Ming Sicheng is in charge of the Ming Group.

Moreover, the Mings and Mos have not collaborated much. Ming Sicheng was purely invited as a guest today.

He didn’t know Mo Weiyi, and even less so, Xu Jing.

But on the other hand, Xu Jing had started shouting, “How is that possible? I really bought this myself, the shopkeeper said it’s just glass jade, not worth anything…Elder, you must believe me!”

Who knew that Old Master Mo unexpectedly chastised her, “Why did you steal Yiyi’s necklace?”

Hearing this, Xu Jing felt as if thunderstruck, and was filled with despair.

“Old Master, I didn’t….”

Despite her protests, the onlookers had already changed their views.

Xu Jing felt panicky.

Her mind was in disarray.

She couldn’t understand how a fake item she bought herself had transformed into a real Imperial Jadeite.

She tried thinking hard but couldn’t figure out where the problem lied.

If this necklace really belonged to Xu Xian, how did it end up in her own bag?

The only possibility was that someone tampered with it.

But who?

Was it Mo Weiyi?

Or Mo Yaoxiong?

Cold sweat broke out instantly.

Xu Jing was overwhelmed with fear.

If it was Mo Weiyi, she was definitely doing it on purpose!

Because Qu Yunyao coveted Xiao Yebai, she directed her hatred towards herself?

Despite calculating everything else meticulously, it never crossed her mind that this girl could be so ruthless!

By using this trick, she caused her public embarrassment, virtually cutting off her chance of joining the Mo family in the future.

As for if it was Mo Yaoxiong…

“Aunt, do you have anything else to say now?” Mo Weiyi’s voice sounded, cutting off Xu Jing’s thought process.

She held the jadeite necklace in her hand, lifted her chin, her delicate and alluring face emitting an air of superiority.

Xu Jing was out of options. In her panic, her eyes turned red and she cried out like a madwoman, “No! This necklace is mine! It belongs to me! Give it back!”

After saying that, she headed straight for Mo Weiyi.

It appeared like she was trying to snatch the necklace, but in reality, she was charging at Mo Weiyi.

The bodyguard was standing right next to Mo Weiyi. Driven by his duty to protect her, he couldn’t not take action.

As expected, Xu Jing didn’t even touch Mo Weiyi’s hand before a man’s hand had already tightly gripped her arm.

In less than half a second, Rong An mercilessly flung her away.

No one had time to react, and a distressing scream was heard.

Followed by a ‘bang’ sound.

Xu Jing’s body, like an arrow leaving its bowstring, was flung straight out.

She crashed into a round table behind her.

Due to the force, she slid off the table and fell onto the ground.

She landed belly first onto the ground, creating a ‘thud’ sound that left Su Wanwan stunned.

Holy crap!

Such incredible strength from Rong An!

This was practically a death sentence!

Before she could think any further…

“Ah…my stomach…my stomach…ah…” Xu Jing shouted in agony, clutching her belly.

Soon, someone screamed, “She’s bleeding! She’s bleeding!”

Xu Jing had purposely worn a crescent white silky dress that day. The blood that was now flowing from her lower body was shockingly evident and quickly dyed the entirety of her dress a dark red.

The smell of blood began to fill the air.

Old Master Mo, with his clouded eyes enlarged in fright.

“Call an ambulance! Quick, quick…”

He could only manage to yell that much before he pressed a hand to his chest, suddenly toppling backward.

“Dad!”

“Master!”

“Call for help!”

The entire banquet hall was immediately thrown into chaos.

Due to the unexpected accident, the birthday banquet had to be cut short.

The servants and bodyguards hurriedly took Old Master Mo and Xu Jing to the nearest hospital, with Mo Yaoxiong and Elder Lady Xu naturally following them.

A service staff came in to change the carpet and wipe away the bloodstains on the floor, with Shi Bo managing the aftermath inside the venue.

Since there was no more spectacle to watch, most of the guests had already dispersed after a short while.

Mo Weiyi, in her red gown, stood by the main table, her face exquisite under the brilliant chandelier. But there was a noticeable look of slight confusion in her eyes.

It wasn’t until Su Wanwan, worried, came forward and held her arm, “Weiyi, are you alright?”

It was like Mo Weiyi was pulled back to reality. She blinked and then turned to look at Su Wanwan’s face, “Wanwan.”

“…” Su Wanwan frowned.

She had never seen Mo Weiyi in such a disoriented state before.

Perhaps it was due to her bright red gown that was too eye-catching, making that paper-white face of hers appear even paler. Additionally, those vacant eyes, devoid of spirit…it looked like she’d received some severe shock.

“Is my aunt pregnant?” Mo Weiyi asked.

Her voice was very soft.

There was a tremor to her voice, as if she had received a shock.

Su Wanwan’s frown deepened, but she could only nod, “Yes, she is.”

Xu Jing had been crying out about her stomach hurting and was desperately trying to protect it.

But she had lost so much blood and the fall had landed right on her stomach. Chances were the baby couldn’t be saved.

However…

Xu Jing was already forty this year, wasn’t she?

No one expected she would have a second spring, and to have such an accident at her birthday party…

Su Warner advised, “Weiyi, this isn’t really your fault. She was caught stealing and lost her mind. Though she knew she was pregnant, she still tried to charge at you in a frenzy. Rong An was just trying to protect you.”

Mo Weiyi did not respond.

Is it really not related?

It is actually related.

Xu Jing was charging at her. If Rong An hadn’t acted first, she’d have pushed Xu Jing away herself.

Rong An had killed a child to protect her.

And this child was Mo Yaoxiong’s, which meant… it was her half-brother or sister?

The frightened expression on Old Master Mo’s face flashed in her mind.

He was looking on with his cloudy eyes, crying out for an ambulance in his hoarse and feeble voice, and then he fainted because he was so upset about losing his grandchild…

“Weiyi?” Su Wanwan tightened her grip on her arm, “Aren’t you going to the hospital to see how your grandfather is…”

Before she could finish speaking.

“Mister Xiao.”

Rong An’s voice was a bit loud, as if he was deliberately reminding her.

Upon hearing his voice, Mo Weiyi turned her head to see a cold-looking man striding towards them from the end of the red carpet.

He wore a white shirt with black pants and rimless glasses, but didn’t wear a suit.

It appeared as if nothing had changed from an hour ago, but Mo Weiyi could tell the difference.

He had taken a shower.

His short black hair was a bit damp, and his shirt and trousers were not the same ones as before.

As he came closer, she could smell a clear scent of a mint bath lotion.

Yet, he was still as elegant as ever, meticulous from head to toe, even his expression carried the same indifference and calmness.

That handsome face was right in front of her, every inch of it pure and clean, so clean… that you couldn’t tell what he had been doing earlier.

“Mr. Xiao, why are you just coming now?” Su Wanwan couldn’t help but reproach him.

Xiao Yebai didn’t even look at her. He walked straight up to Mo Weiyi, came to a stop in front of her, and rested his gaze on her face.

Mo Weiyi didn’t say a word.

He didn’t say anything either.

The two of them just looked at each other, the atmosphere quiet.

As the banquet had ended, the hall was empty and there were hardly any people remaining. This silence between the two… added a peculiar feeling of eeriness.

Su Wanwan pinched her fingers, feeling a bit annoyed.

What kind of man was this?

Such a big incident occurred, he was absent from the scene for so long and even now he didn’t know how to comfort her?

Su Wanwan directly stepped forward, “Hey, Xiao, are you even a man…”

Before she could finish her sentence, her mouth was covered by a man’s hand.
