Chapter 1296: Chapter 1296: Defeating Jing Yan, Losing All Face

Mrs. Mo chuckled twice, her gaze casually sweeping over Jing Yan.

She continued.

"At first, I was quite worried. I mean, a young girl working so hard— it sounds nice to call it ambition, but in families like ours, what’s important is the continuation of the family line. What if she couldn’t bear children? But look at Yaya, she really did us proud. She isn’t even officially part of the family yet, and my dear grandchild is already on the way. The elders at home are overjoyed."

Mrs. Mo covered her mouth, laughing merrily.

Her gaze fell on the awkwardly smiling Jing Yan, and her smile suddenly stopped.

She feigned surprise and clapped her hands.

"Look at my memory. How could I forget? I heard that Jing Yan is also pregnant. I forgot to congratulate Commander Jiang on becoming a grandfather soon."

"..."

Jiang Haoyan looked at Jing Yan’s belly, a trace of gloom flashing in his eyes.

He indeed wished to have a grandson, but that required Jing Yan’s belly to be up to the task.

Not to mention her belly, she herself was a disappointment.

She had been in the United States with Jiang Jinchen for almost two months, and she couldn’t even get him to touch a finger on her. In the end, he had to arrange for someone to prepare medicine to fake a pregnancy.

Ning Yanan had gotten pregnant by Jiang Jinchen a while ago.

If it hadn’t been for a mishap, he would already be a grandfather by now.

Mrs. Mo was right; in families like theirs, nothing was more important than the continuation of the family line.

Thinking this, Jiang Haoyan’s view of Jing Yan suddenly lost its previous satisfaction.

"Speaking of pregnant women, the hardships of bearing a child are unknown to those who have never experienced it, especially for Jing Yan, being her first pregnancy. She must be very careful not to take the wrong medicine; harming the fetus would be terrible."

Mrs. Mo seemed to sense Jiang Haoyan’s discomfort and intentionally irritated him.

Jiang Haoyan did not want to hear such topics, but she kept talking incessantly.

"Mrs. Mo worries too much; I will be very careful," Jing Yan replied stiffly.

She had never been pregnant; how would she know what to avoid during pregnancy?

"It’s good to know to be careful, not just with medication, but don’t hesitate with prenatal check-ups either. Do it a few times more for safety. I recently heard a joke about a woman who, wanting to keep the man she loved, pretended to be pregnant. She imported a drug from Australia that, she claimed, made non-pregnant women look as if they were pregnant. Isn’t that ridiculous?"

Mrs. Mo finished speaking and covered her mouth, giggling first.

Looking at Jing Yan again, although she still smiled, her facial expression was rigid as if plastered.

Jiang Haoyan couldn’t manage a laugh at all.

The medicine he gave to Jing Yan was indeed procured from Australia.

In a moment, Jiang Haoyan’s eyes deepened, filled with probing as he gazed at Mrs. Mo sitting in front of him.

Mrs. Mo, as if she hadn’t seen the probing in his eyes, snickered.

"They really think having a child is like playing house, that pretending can actually produce a baby? I would love to know, when the time comes for the supposed ten-month pregnancy to culminate in labor, how they plan to continue the deception."

As Mrs. Mo finished speaking, Jing Yan’s body swayed, nearly collapsing to the ground.

She reached out to steady herself against the table and barely stayed on her feet.

"Ah, what’s wrong with Jing Yan? You were still talking, why do you look so ill? Is it the baby moving, perhaps? Quick, call a doctor, we must ensure nothing goes wrong with the child."

"No need, Mrs. Mo, I’m fine. Maybe I just haven’t slept well these past few days; I’ll go rest a bit inside," Jing Yan, glancing at the stern-faced Jiang Haoyan, just wanted to get away quickly.
