This Life, I'm Raising the Right Man

In order to climb the social ladder, he even denied his own flesh and blood.

The servant, receiving a signal from Prime Minister Wang, immediately escorted the troublemaking woman away. As she was being taken away, she kicked and cursed, her mouth spitting insults at Xiao Yanci.

”The child... the child is innocent, don’t hurt my child...”

Su Yaoguang watched as the Wen Family member was taken away, and at that moment, a person stood beside her. Smelling the familiar scent, she turned back to look.

Zhou Wangshu’s face was wet, still somewhat flushed. He stood by her side and asked in a low voice, ”What happened just now?”

”The Wen Family appeared, holding a child over a year old. She insisted that Xiao Yanci is the child’s father. Xiao Yanci did not admit it, and Prime Minister Wang felt humiliated, immediately ordering his men to remove the Wen Family member.”

”Do you feel any better? If not, I can think of other ways to vent your anger,” Zhou Wangshu said.

Su Yaoguang pointed at him in shock, gesturing in the direction the Wen Family member left: ”I was just wondering, considering the Wen Family’s status, she shouldn’t have been able to storm into the Prime Minister’s Mansion. Just the gatekeepers there would have stopped her. So, this was all your doing.”

”This isn’t trickery; it’s fulfillment. Today is the wedding day of Xiao Yanci and the Princess. After separating from Jiang Yihuan, Xiao Yanci was seeking comfort and accepted the advances of the Wen Family member. At that time, he tried to placate her and was tender and considerate for a few months.”

The Wen Family member originally admired him and was pleased to have snatched him from Jiang Yihuan.

However, once she truly got this man, she discovered he wasn’t as good as she imagined. He was more deceitful than many.

If she hadn’t become pregnant, the Wen Family member might have already set her sights on her next target. But now, having borne his child, he must take responsibility for her.

Besides, Xiao Yanci has now attached himself to the Prime Minister’s Mansion and is an official himself. The child would fare better under his care.

She deliberately caused a scene in front of everyone, making sure everyone knew she was Xiao Yanci’s woman. The Prime Minister’s Mansion, for the sake of reputation, would surely keep her and let her live in the residence with her child. Furthermore, neither she nor the child could come to harm. If something happened, Miss Wang’s reputation would be ruined. She would become notorious throughout the Capital City as a shrew and a jealous woman.

”Prime Minister Wang, no matter what, today is a joyous day, so make sure no blood is shed. After all, the woman and the child are your son-in-law’s former lovers.”

Prime Minister Wang forced an ugly smile, speaking impatiently: ”Don’t worry, General Su. I am not a petty person. If it turns out that woman really is connected to my son-in-law, I will naturally arrange for them to live stable lives.”

”I trust in Prime Minister Wang’s character. Now that the woman has been taken away, let’s proceed with the ceremony!”

In the witness of all, this farce finally approached its end.

However, it was just approaching. Soon, a servant rushed in and said to them, ”Something happened in the backyard.”

”What happened?”

”In the backyard... Honored guests, you should go see for yourselves.” The attendant spoke with an expression difficult to describe.

”This is the Prime Minister’s Mansion, what could possibly happen? Let’s go and see.”

A group of guests hurried to the backyard.

Xiao Yanci and Wang Ruyan had completed their ceremony under the witness of a few guests. The bride was then to be sent to the bridal chamber.

As the groom and bride returned to the bridal chamber, something unspeakable happened in the backyard.

In the empty yard of the Prime Minister’s Mansion came ambiguous sounds, clearly indicating someone was engaging in intimate acts.

”Who would dare commit such a despicable act in the backyard of the Prime Minister’s Mansion?” Bang! Someone kicked open the door.

Two of Xia Zhen’s attendants stood in the crowd, casting wicked looks at the scene inside.

However, when the door was kicked open and the scene was exposed to everyone, the faces of the two attendants turned ghostly white.

Two men...

One man was plump, with a large head and ears.

The other was young and relatively fair-skinned, but notorious.

”The Heir of Marquis Cheng’an...” someone said, ”So young and already has such a preference.”

The fat man was the cousin of the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

”Young Master...” the two attendants quickly covered Xia Zhen’s body with a quilt.

Xia Zhen had been conscious throughout; only the fat man seemed off. At that moment, the two attendants knocked the fat man unconscious.
