Chapter 1271: Chapter 1271 He’s Started to Suspect You

"One older and one younger, such a blessing is beyond my luck; might as well have Dad take Jing Yan in. That way, it would even serve as a marriage alliance between the two families. As for Mom, I will light a stick of incense and explain things to her on your behalf. After all, it’s for the Jiang Family. She certainly won’t blame you."

"You..."

Jiang Haoyan’s face changed dramatically, his complexion turning bright red with anger.

"Oh, that’s not right. Jing Yan is now carrying my child. If she were to marry Dad, it looks like she would have to call me ’third brother.’ What a mess that would make of our family hierarchy."

Jiang Jinchen straightened his collar and continued to speak as he watched Jiang Haoyan on the brink of exploding, suddenly shifting the tone of the conversation.

Lowering his voice.

"In fact, Dad doesn’t need to worry too much. After all, no one knows if Jing Yan is really pregnant. And even if she is, only she knows whether the child is truly a descendant of the Jiang Family."

"...What do you mean by that?"

Jiang Haoyan’s eyes tightened, reflecting a trace of dark light.

"I was drunk that day, so drunk that I passed out. I woke up in the morning without feeling a thing, so naturally, whatever Jing Yan said, goes. I didn’t bother to investigate, not wanting to make things awkward for either of us. I don’t know how likely it is for someone to get pregnant after one night, but I do have my doubts. Now that she’s with you, why don’t you go and check for me?"

Jiang Jinchen said nonchalantly.

In fact, he did harbor suspicions.

He remembered how heavily he had drunk that day, and in a haze, he had embraced someone.

His mind wasn’t clear, and he mistook her for Ning Yanan.

She didn’t push him away. When he woke up, it felt like he had a beautiful dream, able to sleep holding the woman he loved for a whole night.

Even just sleeping was enough to satisfy him.

It was not until Jing Yan pointed at the blood on the sheets and told him it was her first time that Jiang Jinchen was utterly dumbfounded.

He hadn’t even considered whether he had actually touched Jing Yan, considering how drunk he had been.

Even if he had mistaken Jing Yan for Ning Yanan, with his memory of that time, he would never have forced her.

How did it happen that he slept with her in such a daze and, coincidentally, she got pregnant...

"Don’t think you can shirk responsibility like that. Whether it’s your child will be clear once it’s born," Jiang Haoyan said sternly.

"Why is your first reaction not to worry about whether the child in Jing Yan’s belly belongs to the Jiang Family but to keep pressuring me to acknowledge it? This isn’t like you. And another thing I can’t figure out: Even if Jing Yan informed you ahead of time, with how busy you are, how could you have arrived so promptly?"

"..."

"Regardless, I absolutely will not marry Jing Yan. Instead of convincing me, Dad, you might as well persuade Jing Yan to give up hope and have an abortion. I still have a meeting to attend. Take care on your way out."

With that, Jiang Jinchen pushed the documents on the desk towards Jiang Haoyan, tapped his long fingers on them, then stood up and left.

...

Inside the hotel.

Jing Yan hurried out of her room as soon as Jiang Haoyan returned.

"Mr. Jiang, did he agree?"

Jing Yan looked at Jiang Haoyan with a face full of hope.

Noticing the gloomy expression on Jiang Haoyan’s face, her heart sank.

"Even though I’m carrying his child, he still didn’t agree?"

"He’s not so easy to deal with. This visit didn’t just fail to get his approval; because of my eagerness, it made him suspicious of you," Jiang Haoyan said sullenly, walking to the sofa.

His aide immediately poured a glass of water and presented it.

Seething with anger, Jiang Haoyan grabbed the glass and drank it down in one gulp.

To think of the fine mess his good son had made; he had sat in Jiang Jinchen’s office for so long without even being offered a cup of tea!
