Chapter 156 Are You Insane?

Yun Shuiyao hurriedly shook her head. "I can't get up; Sister hasn't forgiven me yet. I can't get up..."

Everyone looked at Yun Mu with varied expressions.

Even the life of the Yun family's eldest son had been sacrificed, yet Yun Mu was still relentless. This was indeed too much.

Yun Mu curled her lips into a cold smile. "Yun Shuiyao, I've already said that I'm not part of the Yun family and don't care about their affairs. Whether the Yun family kicks you out has nothing to do with me; kneeling won't help!"

"As for Yun Heshu's death..." Yun Mu paused and continued, "If you insist on blaming me, then I'll have to call the police to investigate until the truth is revealed. I don't like taking the blame for things I didn't do."

Yun Shuiyao was taken aback, not expecting Yun Mu to mention calling the police.

Of course, she couldn't let the police get involved; otherwise, her fate would be even worse.

Seeing the panic on her face, Yun Mu raised an eyebrow and deliberately handed over her phone, opening the dialing interface.

"What do you think? Should you call the police yourself, or should I do it for you? Yun Shuiyao, dare you report it?"

Yun Shuiyao felt a chill run through her body, sensing that Yun Mu might know something.

She dared not call the police and, in a moment of desperation, collapsed to the ground crying. "Sister, please don't force me... Please... Ah, my stomach hurts so much..."

Yun Shuiyao suddenly started sobbing uncontrollably, clutching her stomach in pain and screaming before fainting with her eyes closed.

Preposterous!

Feng Lixin quickly picked her up and glared angrily at Yun Mu. "You vicious woman, how could you force a pregnant woman like this? Do you have any compassion? If anything happens to Yao'er and her child, I won't let you off!"

"So worried about your child?" Yun Mu sneered.

Feng Lixin turned red with anger. "You... you vicious woman!"

Then, he immediately carried Yun Shuiyao and rushed her to the hospital.

After this commotion, everyone's gaze toward Yun Mu became somewhat strange.

They dared not approach her and left one by one.

Yun Mu smiled indifferently.

...

At the old Huo residence.

Originally, Yun Shuiyao's pregnancy had been kept secret, but after her scene at Imperial Capital University, everyone knew about it now.

"This woman really has some tricks. Why is she revealing her pregnancy at this time? What does she want?"

Old Master Huo smashed his teacup in anger.

Tea splashed everywhere as the porcelain cup shattered into pieces.

At this point, Yun Shuiyao was being pushed away by everyone. By exposing her pregnancy, she clearly wanted to leverage the Huo family and force Huo Jinzhou to marry her.

Huo Jinzhou stood beside the desk, his expression grim and silent.

Old Master Huo grew even angrier and glared fiercely at him.

"Are you mute?"

Huo Jinzhou's expression remained unchanged as he calmly replied, "With such a big commotion, we can't just sit back and do nothing. I will handle it."

"How do you plan to handle it?" Old Master Huo asked.

Huo Jinzhou narrowed his eyes, seemingly making a decision, and said, "Marry Yun Shuiyao and give everyone an explanation."

Old Master Huo almost fainted from anger!

"To whom are you giving an explanation? It seems you're ready to hand over the Huo family! At this critical juncture, everyone wants to stay far away from the Yun family's mess, especially that troublemaker Yun Shuiyao, but you're rushing to get involved? Are you that desperate for women?"

Huo Jinzhou's expression remained stony. "The child in Yun Shuiyao's belly is indeed mine. I can't shirk my responsibility. Yun Mu is also part of the Yun family; the Huo and Yun families are already tied together."

"If Yun Shuiyao were even a fraction as good as Yun Mu, I wouldn't stop you from marrying her! But what kind of person Yun Shuiyao is, you know very well. What do you gain by marrying her now?"

If it were the former Yun Shuiyao, despite her poor character, she was still a Yun family heiress, and marrying her would secure the Yun family's support.

But now, with everyone against her and rumors that the Yun family would disown her, she had lost all value.

His usually calculating grandson wouldn't make a loss-making deal. What was he planning?

Old Master Huo's eyes were filled with suspicion, staring straight at Huo Jinzhou, trying to see through his true intentions.

But Huo Jinzhou kept his head bowed, his eagle-like eyes hidden in the shadows, his expression unreadable.

"Grandfather, if I abandon Yun Shuiyao now, wouldn't I be a scoundrel?" Huo Jinzhou said solemnly. "If Grandfather doesn't like Yun Shuiyao, we can first get engaged and consider marriage after the child is born."

His words sounded sincere, as if he truly meant them.

Old Master Huo glared at Huo Jinzhou menacingly. "Get out! If you dare marry that troublemaker, get out of the Huo family!"

Huo Jinzhou was directly scolded out of the study.

As soon as he came out, Li Yunlan, who had been eavesdropping outside, pulled him back into the room and made him sit down.

"Jinzhou, are you really going to marry that wretch?"

Huo Jinzhou sat down beside her. "Yes, I've already told Grandfather. If you don't like Yao'er, we can first formally get engaged and establish our relationship. We can hold the wedding after the child is born..."

"Are you talking nonsense, child?" Li Yunlan anxiously interrupted him. "Tell me honestly, does that woman have something on you to threaten you with?"

"No."

"Then why are you marrying her? Don’t you know what kind of situation she’s in now—her reputation is ruined, and her character is questionable. She’s worthless without the Yun family!" Li Yunlan had completely forgotten how much she had once favored this daughter-in-law; her words were filled with disgust.

Worthless?

Huojinzhou's thin lips curved slightly.

That woman had truly managed to deceive everyone.

To be able to assassinate the Yun family’s heir so easily without leaving any traces, and secretly invest a hundred million in him last night—just how much more is Yun Shuiyao hiding?

No matter what, he must now use this woman to rise again!

After some thought, Huojinzhou said, "Mom, I’ve already made my decision, so please don’t interfere. Rest assured, I know what I’m doing."

"You’re really bewitched!" Li Yunlan muttered. "What potion did that wretched woman give you? There are so many noble ladies in the capital, all of them more prestigious and beautiful than her."

"Mom, she’s pregnant."

"So what? Can’t we keep the child and get rid of her?" Li Yunlan even said with disdain, "Moreover, that woman was born lowly. Just thinking about my eldest grandson coming from her belly makes me unhappy!"

"Don’t say such things again. If you have time, start preparing for the engagement ceremony."

Huojinzhou stated firmly, then got up and left.

"What sin have I committed?" Li Yunlan cried out in anger and frustration.
