Yao Beidi remained silent.
"I ask you, who is the father of the child?!" Yao's father's anger was sky-high.
Yao Beidi still said nothing.
"Yao Beidi! Are you ready to be punished by the family laws?!" Yao's father was so angry he stood up.
"Old man, calm down, you're scaring the child?!" Yao's mother hurried to persuade him.
"Who is scaring whom?! She's going to infuriate me to death at this rate!" Yao's father was completely unable to calm down, stomping his foot in frustration.
With tearful eyes, Yao Beidi had never been scolded like this by her own father, nor had she ever angered them to such an extent.
She always felt very unfilial.
"If you don't say who the father is, go abort the child tomorrow." Yao's father suddenly spoke up, word by word.
Yao Beidi was startled, "No, I won't abort her!"
"Yao Beidi, do you know what you are now? Unwed and pregnant, our family cannot afford this loss of face!" Yao's father said harshly.
