Huo Zirui's brain buzzed. He took a few steps forward, picked up the report on the table, and read it carefully. He then threw it at Huang Meixiang and clenched his fists.
"How despicable! You framed me! If this had not been exposed, I would have raised another man's bastard child!"
Huang Meixiang's original smugness had disappeared from her face. All that was left was fear.
Huo Zirui's heart grew even colder.
Gu Ruochu had been telling the truth. Huo Zirui felt stupid for looking forward to having a bastard child. When he thought about his relationship with Gu Li, he was filled with bitterness.
She had planned such a ridiculous scheme, and he was disgusted.
"It's not like that! Don't believe this gossipy woman!" Huang Meixiang retorted emotionally. She pointed her finger at her. "It's Gu Ruochu who's lying. She doesn't want us to have peace! Look at how vicious she is. She's shamelessly claiming that the child that was in Lili's belly wasn't Zirui's!"
"I'm not the one disturbing the peace. It's you and your daughter!" Gu Ruochu retorted. "I've tolerated you both for a long time. Your daughter blamed me so that she could get rid of her bastard child. Huang Meixiang, is it that easy to get rid of the blame?"
"Huang Meixiang, how further along was the pregnancy, half a month or a month?" Huo Zirui only wanted her to confirm if he was the father.
"Of course the child is yours, this troublemaker wants to sow discord between us!"
Huang Meixiang tidied up her clothes. She opened her mouth to lie, but Huo Zirui grabbed her hair and dragged her out of the door.
"Good. Let's go for a DNA test now. We'll see the truth very soon."
"No, we're not going to for a test!" Huang Meixiang was a complete mess. She was still trying to defend herself. "You have to believe me. Gu Ruochu is lying!"
The scene instantly turned chaotic. Gu Ruochu sat by the side and stared at her coldly. "Believe you? You won't go for a DNA test with Huo Zirui, yet you want people to believe that the child belongs to the Huo family?"
Everyone looked at Huang Meixiang with disdain.
Now that she could no longer rely on framing Gu Ruochu, Huang Meixiang had no idea what to do. Her face turned pale, and she could already predict her fate.
Gu Qiang suddenly stood in front of Huo Zirui. "It must have been Gu Ruochu who framed Lili. Lili has always been obedient and sensible. Gu Ruochu, however, has a vicious mind. She would do anything to protect her position."
"Mother, since Huang Meixiang and her family think that I'm lying, why don't you let Zirui take the test?" The samples from Gu Li's miscarriage are still with the doctor. The truth will soon be revealed." Gu Ruochu was confident that Huang Meixiang had run out of tricks.
"No..." Huang Meixiang was increasingly feeling desperate. Her eyes could not move. "Gu Ruochu is lying. She's the one lying..."
"If she's lying, why did you stop me from taking the test?"
Huo Zirui did not trust anyone in the Gu family anymore. When he thought about how ridiculous he had been, trying to seek justice for a bastard child, he wanted to smash his brain.
"Miss Huang, it's better to have a little bit of face. When you frame others and pretend to be innocent, it may backfire on you."
Gu Ruochu did not even bother to look at her as she stood up and left.
Huang Meixiang was flustered and rambled incoherently. Her previous arrogance had disappeared, and Gu Qiang found it difficult to understand his wife's words.
