Chapter 1240: Chapter 1260

"I can swear! If I ever let Xiaoqing down again in this life, let me be struck by lightning and die horribly!" Gu Lizhe had never been more clear-headed than at this moment, especially since he was deceived by that woman Jin Zixuan; now he truly understood what he wanted.

Although Yang Xiaoqing didn’t accept Gu Lizhe, she loved this man. How could she want to hear him make such a poisonous vow? She wanted to stop him, but her mom’s glance stopped her—that look seemed to say that if she dared to speak, she would make her life a living hell.

Yang Xiaoqing was so startled she shut her mouth and could only be anxious at heart.

The fool, she’d rather he betray her than hope nothing bad happens to him.

"Alright, this is what you said, Gu Lizhe. I’ll trust you one last time! Yang Xiaoqing, get on your knees!" Yang Xiaoliang suddenly turned the firepower toward his daughter.

Yang Xiaoqing was so shocked she quickly knelt down.

Gu Lizhe looked on nervously and said, "Uncle, I can kneel; the ground is cold..."

"Shut up, this is a matter of the Yang Family, not yours to meddle! Yang Xiaoqing, your wings have hardened! Did you forget the family rules and upbringing?" Yang Xiaoliang was very angry, and his expression was even worse.

Zhou Zi Yun nervously watched both father and daughter, afraid that her husband might get seriously angry, and even more afraid he might lay hands on their daughter.

"Talk this through properly, she’s physically inconvenienced right now." Zhou Zi Yun said, moving her mouth slightly.

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaoqing instantly understood; her parents knew about her pregnancy. She immediately sat back on her heels and asked, "How did you find out?"

"You still dare to ask! You have the face to ask!" Yang Xiaoliang was so angry his chest hurt—how had he raised such a brainless daughter.

"You silly child, how could we not know about your period? You really are going to drive me and your dad to our graves." Zhou Zi Yun started crying again.

Yang Xiaoqing began feeling guilty, feeling she had let down her parents.

Gu Lizhe couldn’t quite process it, not understanding what was happening to this family, and why Xiaoqing’s menstrual cycle was being mentioned.

"Marriage!" Yang Xiaoliang also saw that his daughter loved Gu Lizhe, and Gu Lizhe now repented, intent on being devoted to his daughter.

Though Gu Lizhe’s status as a divorcee made him uncomfortable, and his past abandonment of their daughter repelled him, considering their daughter is pregnant with his child now, what more could he say?

"Huh?" Gu Lizhe was completely bewildered—is he dreaming? What is Uncle Yang saying? He can’t understand a single word!

"Dad, I don’t plan on getting married yet." Yang Xiaoqing waved her hand urgently—she was so young, she hadn’t played enough, hadn’t thought about marriage yet.

"Do you plan to flaunt your belly? What will outsiders say if they see you? Or do you plan to give birth and say it’s your brother? That it’s the child your mom and I had late in life?" Yang Xiaoliang’s face was stern as he looked at her.

Yang Xiaoqing, "..."

She really hadn’t thought about that.

Gu Lizhe was completely stunned.

"Don’t forget who you are. Can you hide it? The internet is so developed now, everything can come out." Zhou Zi Yun was particularly worried.

"Let it come out then! I’m not scared! So what if I’m pregnant before marriage? What’s wrong with that?" Yang Xiaoqing looked bewildered, this was what she had originally planned.

Gu Lizhe just realized, looked at Yang Xiaoqing in disbelief, "You’re pregnant?"
