Chapter 1674: Coming Back to Bite Her

Yu Lili’s belly was like an inflated balloon. It was getting bigger by the day.

After the first prenatal checkup, the doctor had warned Ou Ming, “You have to be infinitely careful. The lining of your wife’s womb is thin and isn’t in an ideal condition. This child had to be preserved at all costs. Otherwise, it is going to be very hard to conceive again.”

The doctor’s words had scared Ou Ming out of his wits. He had been very careful every day. He treated Yu Lili like a porcelain doll, afraid that even the slightest bump would cause harm to the baby.

Fortunately, the first trimester passed without any incident.

Yu Lili slept in until the sun was high in the sky.

By the time she showered and emerged from the room, Ou Ming had finished a whole morning’s load of work and had come home for lunch.

Upon seeing that Yu Lili’s eyes were still groggy from her sleep, he mischievously went forward to pull her into his arms for a passionate kiss.

The kiss was effective in waking Yu Lili up. She waved him away and whined, “Go away...”

“I heard a huge piece of news today!”

“What is it?” Yu Lili looked at him. Her wide eyes brightly shone. Ever since she had gotten pregnant, it was as if her skin had been miraculously hydrated. It was in very good condition.

Ou Ming felt his emotions stir just by looking at her. He wrapped his arms around her and maneuvered her into the bedroom as he answered, “Li Jinnan is getting married.”

“Oh...” Yu Lili was surprised for a moment. She suddenly realized that she was making much ado about nothing and asked, “Hasn’t he already been with Ye Youyou for quite some time now?”

“Yeah...” Ou Ming sighed as he leaned his forehead against hers and said, “But his mother just refused to approve of the match. When his mother found out that Ye Youyou had been in prison and married before, she refused to accept her as a daughter-in-law no matter what.”

When Yu Lili heard those words, she felt very sorry for the lady.

At the same time, she could understand why Li Jinnan’s mother wouldn’t approve of the marriage. A thought suddenly occurred to her. “But the girl is already pregnant. It’s unacceptable for them not to be able to get married!”

“That’s exactly why that rascal Li Jinnan used it as a trump card against his mother. Do you know how his mother reacted?”

“What? How did she react?”

“She cried, screamed, and even threatened suicide. In any case, she simply refused to allow him to marry her.”

“What are they going to do? Youyou’s already pregnant. They can’t very well force her to abort it!”

“Who knows what Third Li has up his sleeve?” Ou Ming chuckled. With his arms wrapped around her, he pushed her to the bed and said, “That rascal may look weird, but he’s full of mischief.”

The moment Yu Lili was pushed onto the bed, she knew exactly what he was trying to do. She struggled a little and said, “Be careful of the child! You’re full of mischief too!”

“Not at all. My intentions toward you are sincere and pure,” Ou Ming said gently as he kissed her on the face.

Yu Lili turned her face away. “No, your son minds your presence.”

“I don’t want a son then. I want a daughter.”

“Your daughter minds your presence too... Oh...”

...

At the old manor of the Li family...

Qin Shuhua was seated on the couch. Her eyes were red as she held the pregnancy test in her hand. Her heart ached.

Li Jinnan and Ye Youyou both sat facing her. One of them had her head down and didn’t dare to utter a word.

The other individual sat with his back straight. His eyes were anticipating his mother’s reaction.

“You’ve been pregnant for more than a month?”

Qin Shuhua asked as she looked at her.

Only after a moment did Ye Youyou realize that the question was directed at her. She looked up immediately and nodded her head. “Yes, Auntie...” she replied.

Qin Shuhua’s hand trembled. She couldn’t help recalling that less than two months ago, she had told Li Jinnan to get the lady pregnant first and bring her home.

At that time, she had even been worried that her son would be too straight-laced to do as she had asked.

Well... Her son had indeed obeyed her words. She had never expected those same words to come back to bite her in this manner.
