Not being taken prisoner was good news.
Only, Ye Chaxu wasn't pregnant.
In court, she wanted to clear things up, but Mr. Zhu had said it so clearly that she couldn't deny it. If she did, it would mean that Mr. Zhu was deceiving everyone.
"Camouflage, are you really pregnant?" Ning Xin stared at Ye Chaxu in astonishment, his gaze fixated on Ye Chaxu's abdomen.
Ye Chaxu did not utter a word, and remained silent.
She opened her mouth several times, but no words came out.
Gu Yuan and Lawyer Zhou walked in front.
Gu Yuan walked up to her in anger and glared coldly at Ye Chaxu. A dangerous aura permeated from his body, "Ye Chaxu, don't think that you can sleep peacefully after you become pregnant. When you give birth to your child, you will still be imprisoned after the lactation period is over."
Ye Chaxu did not reply, and looked at Gu Yuan with dull eyes.
"Dad, you don't need to worry about this. I believe the court will give Ye Chaxu a fair and just explanation." Gu Shen's voice was loud and clear. He walked over from behind Ye Chaxu and Lawyer Zhu followed beside him.
Gu Yuan rolled his eyes at Gu Shen, and coldly spat out a few words: "Then let's wait and see." Then he left.
Gu Shen looked at Gu Yuan's leaving figure, and felt a burst of guilt in his heart.
"Lawyer Zhu, you go back first! I'll have Amen come to you later and discuss the case with you in detail. " Gu Shen instructed Lawyer Zhu that Lawyer Zhu needed to pacify him, so he handed the matter over to Amen.
Mr. Zhu nodded.
Gu Shen looked at Ning Xin, and said with a gentle tone: "Ning Xin, I'll get someone to send you back, don't think too much about what happened today, and take a good rest."
Ning Xin shook his head, and rejected: "No need, I've already driven the car, I can go back by myself." After saying that, he looked at Ye Chaxu and smiled: "Don't worry, I believe you'll be fine. If you still need me to testify, find me anytime."
Ye Chaxu nodded with a faint smile.
Thus, Lawyer Zhu and Ning Xin left.
Ye Chaxu and Gu Shen silently entered the carriage, the entire way, the two of them did not utter a sound, the air around them was extremely cold and solemn.
After returning home, Ye Chaxu ran into his room and laid on the bed with a blanket over his head.
Gu Shen walked over to Ye Chaxu, and laid down beside her. Still, he did not make a sound.
He was waiting, waiting for her to speak.
Ye Chaxu could not stand the cold atmosphere, he quickly pulled up the blanket and looked at Gu Shen coldly: "You clearly know that I am not pregnant, yet you told the judge that I am, this is a lie, if the judge finds out, your crime will be very serious."
Gu Shen nodded and frowned.
Ye Chaxu felt helpless. After taking a deep breath, he asked uncomfortably: "Ever since we left the court, you haven't said a word and have been depressed all this time. Is it because you watched the video that you believe that I'm the murderer?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Gu Shen faintly sighed, his deep black eyes flickered with anticipation. He wanted to hear Ye Chaxu's explanation, so he said: "I knew you weren't happy, so I didn't say anything. I wanted you to calm down, and I was also waiting for you to take the initiative to explain."
Ye Chaxu lowered her head, the sadness in her heart was rising, and she could not help but cry: "Will my explanation still be useful?"
"As long as you say it, I believe you." Although the video was real, he was willing to give Ye Chaxu a chance. As long as she was not lying, he was willing to believe.
But if she lied to him, then …
No, she would not deceive him. He hated deceit the most in his life.
"I don't know what the video is about." Ye Chaxu gradually stopped crying and the sadness in her eyes slowly turned into confusion. "I have never killed Grandmother Gu and from start to finish, I have never known who was behind me and I even created this video."
Gu Shen frowned, he kept his doubt in his eyes and looked deeply at Ye Chaxu.
After a long while, he pulled her into his embrace, saying with a pained heart, "Don't even think about it, this matter hasn't been decided yet. We will find more evidence." After a moment of hesitation, he explained, "In order to save you, I can only let the lawyer say that you are pregnant. Otherwise, the video today will be enough for you to be put in jail. Once you are in prison it will be even harder to bail you out. " This was the reason why he took the risk.
"But, I'm not pregnant. If dad finds out, then I'll be found out." Ye Chaxu said worriedly. This was what she was worried about, because she was only a fake pregnancy. At that time, her stomach wouldn't bulge, what should she do?
"Don't worry, even if Dad knew, he wouldn't expose us, unless he wants to see me go to jail with you." Gu Shen smiled faintly, he was very confident. It was because they were his own family that he felt at ease.
Gu Yuan only had him, so he would take him into consideration when doing things. Moreover, he was the only one who could compete with Gu Shaoting for the inheritance of the family.
Furthermore, even if the judge knew that he had been cheated, he believed that the Gu family's ability could still be dealt with.
Furthermore, they still had time. As long as Ye Chaxu was pregnant during this period of time, it would be okay. After all, they could fake the date of his pregnancy.
Therefore, he needed to speed up his progress and request for Ye Chaxu to become pregnant in the shortest amount of time possible. If she was really pregnant, then he would be able to stand up even more firmly in the clan.
"Of course, if you get pregnant during this period of time, then everyone would be happy." He said this expectantly with the corner of his mouth curving up.
After Ye Chaxu heard this, his entire body stiffened.
She couldn't get pregnant, and even if she did, the baby wouldn't live long.
However, she couldn't say it and didn't dare to because she was afraid that he would be disappointed.
"Su Xu, we're all tired today, so let's not talk about it. Have a good sleep. We'll discuss this matter tomorrow, okay?" Gu Shen said, he did not want to talk about this matter today.
Because of this matter, he was also very annoyed.
That video was really troublesome. He would ask An Chen to find the professionals to re-appraise the video because he would have to trust Ye Chaxu to find out if the video was real or fake.
Ye Chaxu nodded her head, she had never done it before anyway, she did not want to feel guilty, so she was not afraid of knocking on the door. Even if she was accused wrongly by others, but as long as she was honest, she was not afraid of anything …
The next day, Ye Chaxu went to the training school to teach.
With Gu Shen overseeing everything from behind, she did not care about anything as she patiently waited for the news.
After school was over, she prepared to leave, but Lin Rourou grabbed her arm.
"Tea, it's a reunion between fellow students today. You have to attend as well. Let's go quickly!" Lin Rourou put his arm around Ye Chaxu's shoulders and smiled amiably.
Ye Chaxu frowned, and rejected embarrassedly: "Forget it, I don't want to go."
"Aiya! Everyone in the class is going. If you don't go, they will say that you don't belong in the same group. At that time, your impression of them will be even worse. Lin Rourou was unhappy, his expression was gloomy.
Ye Chaxu shook her head. She still didn't want to go.
A strange smile appeared on Lin Rourou's face as he continued to persuade her, "Go! Just treat it as accompanying me, okay? "
