I'm Pregnant with the Villain's Child

Chapter 69 – At that time, the Lu family would be destroyed under the male lead’s undefeatable halo! (2)

Lu Beichuan silently looked at her. After thinking it over, he answered, “I found out on the day that you slapped me.”

“... So you woke up a while ago? When exactly?”

“When you confessed to me that you took your older sister’s place.”

“...” She hadn’t guessed incorrectly.

Ye Zhen remained silent for a long time before she quietly said, “Since our discussion has already reached this point, I won’t keep hiding stuff from you.” Ye Zhen sighed and quietly said, “Yes, I’m Ye Zhen. I took my older sister’s place in marrying you so that your family would help my family’s business.”

“I overheard Lin Zhan and my older sister’s conversation when they were in the bathroom yesterday. That’s when I found out that my older sister has been taking credit for all the things I’ve done in the past for Lin Zhan.” Ye Zhen’s mood seemed low, and her voice sounded as if she was choked up and about to cry.

“All those love letters I wrote to Lin Zhan had become letters that my older sister wrote to him. I worked at a restaurant to spend time with him, but he thought she’s the one that was with him during those times. I took care of Lin Zhan’s mom at the hospital, but in the end, my older sister took the credit for all my hard work. Because of Lin Zhan’s misunderstanding, he’s always been by her side. But, I feel that the person he truly loves is the me that was always by his side back when we were younger!”

Lu Beichuan nodded. “And so?”

“I’ve liked Lin Zhan since high school, but I thought he liked my older sister, so I’ve never dared to confess my true feelings to him using my own name. But, I’ve thought things through since then. If I had only bravely told him my feelings back then, perhaps, I would be the person by Lin Zhan’s side right now.”

Ye Zhen looked at Lu Beichuan with unshed tears in her eyes, “CEO Lu, I told you before that I’m in love with Lin Zhan and I’m willing to give up everything for him. As for me and you, there’s no emotional foundation between us. There’s no future for us. Besides, CEO Lu, your wife’s name is Ye Qing not Ye Zhen. If you have me take my older sister’s place and stay in the Lu family, what will happen to my older sister?”

Lu Beichuan didn’t seemed swayed at all by Ye Zhen’s tearful visage and helpless tone. “Good job on the tearful performance, but you’ve already said this before. There’s no need for you to put on this act again. ”

When she thought about it carefully, she remembered what Lu Beichuan was referring to.

Ye Zhen calmly wiped away the fake tears and continued with her attempt at persuading him. “My parents raised me into adulthood, so I couldn’t stand to the side and do nothing. I willingly married you to help my parents. I have self-awareness. I know that the Lu family only wanted the marriage between our families in hopes that a marriage would bring you good luck, and I also know that my family isn’t good enough to be in-laws with your family under normal circumstances. If you hadn’t gotten into a car accident, I would have never gotten the opportunity to marry you. Once you woke up, I planned on leaving so that you can find a woman that you truly love to be your wife. I’m not going to try to use devious tricks to force you to stay married to me.”

“Are you saying that after trying out a wedding dress I suggested for you and confirming the wedding date, you want to leave and pretend as if nothing has happened?”

Ye Zhen really wanted to say yes, that’s exactly it.

But, she didn’t dare to say that in front of Lu Beichuan. It would be the same as digging her own grave.

“CEO Lu, do you think a loveless marriage will last?” Ye Zhen’s gaze was heavy as she looked at him. “Excuse me for speaking disrespectfully, but your mother’s life has been difficult in the past years because she’s been trapped in a loveless marriage where her husband doesn’t love her. Since there aren’t any feelings between us, why bother with forcing us together?”
