Chapter 77: Won’t Agree to Divorce

Xiao Miaomiao was startled by Jiang Lin’s words, her face turning a shade of awkwardness. She knew she would never agree to a divorce, and she dared not get any closer to Jiang Lin, so she stepped back a little.

“Brother Lin, I’m married now, and there might already be a baby in my belly. It’s your little nephew or niece. You can’t say bad things about them. I’m perfectly healthy. Li Jingcheng is just in a coma. He’s being taken care of very well, and the child will be born healthy and strong.” Xiao Miaomiao said seriously, her tone firm and confident.

She held her belly tightly, as if protecting a precious life.

Jiang Lin frowned, looking at Xiao Miaomiao, a sense of helplessness rising in his heart.

Jiang Lin scoffed, “Haha, don’t talk about things that aren’t real. If you really got pregnant on the first try, I’ll write my name backwards.” He rolled his eyes at Xiao Miaomiao, doubting her claims.

“You’ve been reading too many CEO novels. You think pregnancy is that easy? Getting pregnant on the first try? Especially with Li Jingcheng’s current condition.” Jiang Lin interrupted Xiao Miaomiao’s fantasy. He thought she was too naive and had a skewed perception of reality.

“Even normal people need to try for a while to have a baby. The chances of getting pregnant from a one-night stand are extremely low, okay?”

Xiao Miaomiao puffed up her cheeks and glared at him, “But it’s possible, isn’t it? A fifty percent chance.” She refused to give up.

“A fifty percent chance of getting pregnant? Are you sure?” Jiang Lin looked at her incredulously.

“Yeah, there are only two possibilities, either pregnant or not pregnant. Isn’t that a fifty percent chance?” Xiao Miaomiao said, looking at him.

Jiang Lin put his hand on his forehead, “You’re a real genius at math.”

“Xiao Miaomiao, my birthday is next month.” Jiang Lin looked at her, still holding her hand on her belly, as if she already had a child. He could only say helplessly.

Xiao Miaomiao didn’t understand why he suddenly brought this up. Didn’t he say he wanted her to get a divorce? Why was he talking about his birthday now?

“I know your birthday is next month. I’ve already started preparing your birthday gift.” Xiao Miaomiao nodded.

Jiang Lin shook his head, his tone firm, “No, change it. This time, I want you to promise me one thing for my birthday gift.”

Xiao Miaomiao looked at him awkwardly, a sudden sense of unease rising in her heart. She asked tentatively, “You wouldn’t be wanting me to get a divorce, would you?”

Jiang Lin nodded without hesitation, his eyes revealing a hint of determination, “Yes. If you still consider me your cousin, agree to divorce him. I can’t just watch you spend your life with a vegetable. I don’t think that’s a good life for you.”

Hearing this, Xiao Miaomiao’s face instantly turned pale. She took a deep breath, trying to keep her voice calm, “But… that’s just your opinion. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it.”

“I’m fine, really. The Li family is very good to me. They give me a sense of family, and they are very protective of me. They treat me like their own child.”

Her eyes were filled with sincerity and determination, as if trying to convince Jiang Lin that she was telling the truth.

Then, she continued, “Really, I live a very comfortable life here. I don’t feel any pressure. The child thing was also my own initiative. They didn’t force me to have a child.”

“Brother Lin, Brother Lin is the best. I like you the most. Can you just change your wish? I’ll agree to anything except divorce.” Xiao Miaomiao looked at him with anticipation.

Jiang Lin smiled and looked at her, “No, I only want you to get a divorce, unless…”

Hearing that there was still hope, Xiao Miaomiao leaned closer and grabbed his arm, “Unless what? Tell me, I’ll try my best to satisfy you.”

Jiang Lin pulled his arm away, “What are you getting so close for? Didn’t you want to stay three meters away from me just now?”

Xiao Miaomiao flatteringly offered him some tea, “Brother Lin, you must be thirsty. Have some tea.”

Jiang Lin looked at her dog-legged appearance, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes. No wonder he and his older brother both disliked Li Jingcheng. Now it seemed they really hated him!

It wasn’t just because of the family feud and hatred, but also because Li Jingcheng had taken away his beloved sister, which made Jiang Lin feel incredibly angry.

If Li Jingcheng was still okay, he might have been able to beat him up to vent his anger. But now, Li Jingcheng was lying in bed like a living corpse, and Jiang Lin couldn’t even find an outlet for his anger.

However, Jiang Lin didn’t give up the idea of revenge. Since he couldn’t get at Li Jingcheng, he would take it out on Hong Wenbin.

After all, Hong Wenbin was also a major culprit in all this.

His older brother had already taken action, canceling all cooperation projects with Hong Wenbin’s company.

While it didn’t seem to have a major impact on Hong Wenbin at the moment, his company would inevitably face difficulties and eventually face bankruptcy.

This would not only punish Hong Wenbin for his actions but also give those employees enough time to find new jobs.

Furthermore, Jiang Lin didn’t plan to stop there. He wanted everyone to see how blind Hong Wenbin was, to be ridiculed and never be able to hold his head up again, to make him pay the price for abandoning Xiao Miaomiao for a woman who wasn’t worth it.

Jiang Lin decided to publicly expose the woman’s ugliness to the outside world.

Just then, Xiao Miaomiao gently pulled on Jiang Lin’s sleeve and asked softly, “Brother Lin, what’s the condition?”

Jiang Brother Linntly pulled his sleeve away from her hand and replied, “Unless you can find out you’re pregnant before my birthday.”

Hearing this, Xiao Miaomiao’s face instantly stiffened.

“Didn’t you say you were a lucky star? Both you and Li Jingcheng are in good health. If you really can get pregnant, I’ll acknowledge your relationship and won’t force you to divorce.” Jiang Lin looked at her and said.

“Li Jingcheng won’t wake up, but I need to at least ensure that you have someone to rely on in the future. If you can get pregnant so quickly, it means the child should be healthy.” Jiang Lin said seriously.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Lin reminded her, “But I want to tell you that I already know from Shen Wang that the medicine can only be used once a month, otherwise it’s bad for Li Jingcheng’s body. So if you didn’t get pregnant last time, you only have one more chance before my birthday.”

Xiao Miaomiao didn’t expect it to be like this. It was too difficult. It wasn’t something that could be easily achieved.
