Chapter 639: Giving You a Step Down

day, how is that possible""Maybe I was mistaken, it's just a back view. Or maybe we should go take a look."Although Jia Wenna claims she misread, she actually encourages Lianyi to take a closer look....At this moment, Zhang Xuetao also sensed that something was amiss. He could only turn his questioning gaze towards the ripples.

"Xuetao, please sit down first."

With a handkerchief, Lian Yi gracefully wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and softly spoke.

"Ripple, what's going on Tell me, don't keep it bottled up inside."

Zhang Xuetao said, and even reached out to hold Lian Ri's hand, only to be avoided by Lian Ri.

Zhang Xuedao could only awkwardly withdraw his hand and glanced at the two aunts beside him. Seeing that they didn't speak, but also didn't leave, it was obvious that they knew something, but were just inconvenient to speak up. His heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he had a bad premonition.

"Xue Taoge, although I have been abroad for four years, I consider myself to have never ignored you. I would write to you every month and whenever I discovered something delicious or useful, I would try my best to get someone to bring it back for you. I believe our relationship is fine, so why would you betray me"

Even when asking questions, ripples are soft-spoken and never aggressive.

Zhang Xuedao was feeling guilty. His eyes flickered, then he gave a strained smile and said:

"Ripple sister, what are you talking about How could I betray you"

At this time, Zi Yao quickly walked into the guest hall and presented a box to Lian Yi.

The ripples did not open the box, but simply pushed it across the round table to Zhang Xietou's face, her eyes red as she said:

"Have a look for yourself!"

Zhang Xuetou frowned, opened the box, and found some photos and records inside. Then his face changed color because the protagonists on them were him and Yun Siyu, as well as other women he was close to. The last one turned out to be a medical record showing that Yun Siyu was pregnant.

"Ripple, where did you come from"

Zhang Xuetao asked in a deep voice.

"It was the day before you arrived that someone sent this to the Marshal's Mansion, addressed to me. I didn't know what it was, so I opened it and found the woman you've been looking for behind my back these past four years! She even... even got pregnant by someone else. Where have you put me"

"Young Master Zhang, don't doubt that Miss privately investigated you. Miss trusts you so much and wouldn't stoop to such measures. After the items arrived, we were worried that someone might be fabricating facts to sabotage the alliance between our families, so we conducted a private investigation."

It turned out to be a piece sent by a reporter from a bankrupt newspaper. He claimed that the news he reported was true, but Young Master Zhang abused his power, shut down their newspaper, and got him fired.

He knew he couldn't resist, so he could only look for more evidence to prove that his report was true, and then sent it to the person who should know the truth the most, which was my young mistress.

Chun Xia received a hint from Lian Yi and softly explained.

After finishing, he also mentioned the name of the newspaper, which made Zhang Xuetao's face even worse.

Because that newspaper was indeed shut down by him, because it published photos of his meeting with Yunsiyu, so he took action to suppress it. He didn't expect the other party to be waiting here for revenge against him. If he had known earlier, he would have killed everyone instead of just shutting down the small newspaper.

Lian Yi watched the killing intent flash in Zhang Xuetao's eyes and knew that the other party didn't feel he had done anything wrong at all.

"Ripple, let me explain."

"Xuetao, you tell me, are all these things false"

Liàn Yī gazed at Zhang Xuetāo expectantly, waiting for his reply.

""

Zhang Xuedao really wanted to deny it, but he knew he couldn't. These things would be found out with a simple investigation, otherwise his father wouldn't have confined Yun Siyu.

"Miss, what time is it You really infuriate me!"

Purple swallow was indignant at his unwillingness to fight.

"Young Master Zhang, the old master doesn't know about this yet. He purposely avoided being here today so that you two could have some time together as a married couple. Before the old master returns, you better come up with a solution. Otherwise, this matter will definitely need to be handled by the old master."

Xia Xin on the side also said calmly.

Zhang Xuedao breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. As long as Duan Zongqing didn't know, there was still a chance to remedy the situation.

"Ripple, whatever you say, that's what I'll do."

Ripple, with eyes red from crying, said:

"Xue Tao ge, I know you like that woman named Yun Si Yu. I also know that for men like you, having three wives and four concubines is normal. But I can't tolerate her giving birth to your child before me. She must have an abortion."

Of course, I'm not incapable of tolerance. Once we're married, I'll allow her to enter the house.

Zhang Xuedao was a little reluctant. He only found out recently that Yun Siyu was pregnant, and he hadn't quite adjusted to the idea of becoming a father. As a result, Lianyi pressured him into making a decision. He felt a bit sorry for her, after all, she was someone he held dear.

"Xuetao, you should be very clear about the reasons for this marriage alliance. In the future, only my children will be eligible to inherit the Duan and Zhang families. Even if I love you dearly, I wouldn't want to become a bride for someone else."

This time the ripples' sound was firm, and his face turned somber.

"Ripples, children are innocent after all."

Zhang Xuetao still wants to fight for it.

"But his existence is proof of your betrayal of me. If you choose to keep that child, then our marriage is over! After all, the fault isn't mine."

The ripples cried again, and then the person slumped back weakly and fainted.

"Oh my! Miss! Miss! Quickly, bring someone to carry the miss back to her room, she's fainted from anger!"

Purple Swallow cried out, and immediately four midwives came in. They carried Ripples back to her room with seven hands and eight feet.

Chūn Xiǎo and Xià Xīn stood before Zhāng Xuě tāo, saying coldly:

"Miss is heartbroken and doesn't want to see you now, young master Zhang should return first!"

This matter can't be kept secret for long. Even if someone deliberately did this to stir up trouble between the two families, the evidence is real, and you did do it, Zhang Gongzi. You better think about how to fix this!

I don't think the people behind this will just give up. Please come back!"

After Chun Xiao finished speaking, she led the guests bustlingly to Lian Yi's courtyard.

Zhang Xuedao watched the departing group, his face clouded with uncertainty. These people couldn't stand his silk rain and were actually going to operate on innocent children. His eyes instantly turned fierce.

"Young commander, what do we do now"

"Go find out who the reporter from that newspaper is and bring them to me! I'm going to skin them alive!"

Zhang Xuetao gritted his teeth and said.

"Zhang Xuetao's whereabouts are still unknown. The next day, the NN city newspaper published a major headline: "Young Marshal Zhang is known for his romantic nature, and has gotten his lover pregnant before marriage. The alliance between the Duan and Zhang families is broken!"

The newspaper article is explosive, detailing the timeline of Zhang Xuetao and Yun Siyu's relationship, including allegations of the latter taking her lover to the battlefield and secretly getting engaged. It truly has pictures and evidence to back it up.

When Zhang Fenglin learned of this, he was so angry that he smashed the teacup in his hand, and then received a call from Duan Zongqing:

"Zhang Dashao, if you have time, come to NN City for a visit. Even if our children cannot marry, we can still be allies. Just please don't step on Duan Someone's face."o the actual implementation, some details need to be added or removed. These can be discussed gradually, and this will benefit both humans and the trans community.Before the secret realm closes, we sh...
