“What he said is true. Look over there, the girl standing there is your future granddaughter-in-law. So you have to recuperate and carry my baby in ten months,” Bai Xiao replied firmly.

Bai Wen and Yu Wei did not believe this excuse, but looking at Bai Xiao’s determined appearance and Bai Zheng’s weak appearance, the two of them did not refute. They planned to ask what was going on later.

“Alright, Grandfather, take care of your health. At least you’ll see your great-grandson.” Bai Zheng laughed a few times and looked much more energetic.

Bai Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. He told the old man some things to take note of and gave him a few more instructions before letting go of Bai Zheng’s hand.

“Send Grandpa to the ward first,” Bai Xiao instructed the nurse standing at the side.

The young nurse was a smart person. She could tell that the atmosphere was not right and hurriedly pushed the bed to the ward that had been prepared beforehand.

After confirming that Bai Zheng had left completely, Yu Wei went forward and pulled Bai Xiao over. Her face was filled with confusion as she asked, “Bai Xiao, when did you fall in love? You even got her pregnant?”

Bai Xiao did not answer her question. Instead, he looked at Hu Lai, who was still standing at the side. “Is this your goal?”

Hu Lai’s face was full of smiles as he rubbed his hands and greeted them. “Young Master Bai, you must be joking. What goal? It’s just that as an elder brother, I want to find a good marriage partner for my sister. Moreover, you’ve already admitted that my sister is pregnant with your child, right?”

Bai Xiao looked at Hu Lai with a cold smile and did not respond.

However, Yu Wei accurately distilled the key point. “You found a good opportunity to marry into my Bai family? Mr. Hu, your plan is really good. Where did you get the news that my old man is recuperating in this hospital? Where did you find out that he wants to carry a great-grandson? Could it be that your sister was pregnant by a wild man and you want to cling to my son? Where’s the evidence?”

Hu Lai seemed to have expected all of this. He calmly took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it over. It was filled with photos of Hu Ke and Bai Xiao.

“I naturally know that words are useless, so please take a look, Madam. These are the evidence.”

Yu Wei opened it and took a few cursory glances. Her beautiful and noble face was filled with disbelief.

Before anyone could react, Yu Wei ran to Hu Ke angrily and raised her hand to slap her.

“You b*tch, you actually seduced my son and took photos? You’re shameless!”

Before Hu Ke could react, she was slapped so hard that she staggered. Bai Wen was the first to react. He pulled Yu Wei, who was about to hit her again, and said, “Enough. We’re still outside. Don’t make a scene.”

Hu Lai was also shocked. He looked at Hu Ke’s rapidly red and swollen cheek and was glad that the slap did not land on his face.

Yu Wei’s eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that she was furious. She pointed at the tip of Hu Ke’s nose and fiercely told her to get lost. She would never marry into the Bai family, but she was stopped by Bai Xiao.

“Mom, calm down.” Bai Xiao and Bai Wen helped Yu Wei calm down.

Before Yu Wei could calm down, she heard Bai Xiao say again, “Is she really pregnant?”

“It’s absolutely true. If you suspect that the child isn’t yours, you can wait for her to give birth to the child and do a paternity test. If it’s not your child, then you have the final say in all the compensation conditions,” Hu Lai quickly replied when he saw that there was a chance.

“What’s the condition?” Bai Xiao knew that Hu Lai would not simply send Hu Ke here. He must have a request. He did not intend to beat around the bush. Since it had already developed to this point, he might as well settle everything.

“Young Master Bai is indeed a straightforward person. I’m not greedy. I just hope that my sister can have a good family. How about this? You and my sister can go and get the marriage certificate today before the Civil Affairs Bureau gets off work. The wedding needs to be prepared in two weeks. The betrothal gifts have to be given. Our families can be considered wealthy. Although my family has fallen, we can always make a comeback. I want ten million in betrothal gifts to help my company for a year. My family’s dowry will be a small company.”

Yu Wei was so angry by their conversation that her heart ached. Before she could say anything, Bai Xiao nodded and agreed to the ridiculous conditions. He was so decisive that everyone was dumbfounded.
