Lin Qiutong, guilty of her actions, immediately grabbed Lin Lanxing's hand and explained, "Xingxing, have you misunderstood something?"
"Misunderstood?" Lin Lanxing fiercely shook off Lin Qiutong's hand. "You're already like this, what else could I possibly misunderstand?"
Her husband, wrapped in a bath towel, emerged from her sister's bathroom. After she caught him, he showed not a trace of guilt, as if they had long planned this scene and were now fearless.
Lin Lanxing grabbed Lin Qiutong's arm. "Didn't you not like him? He's my husband now, yet you still… with him. Do you even consider me your sister? Do you respect me at all? Have you thought about how much pain I'm in knowing you've betrayed me?"
Lin Lanxing questioned Lin Qiutong, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
Seeing Lin Lanxing's heightened emotions, Shen Qiwen, afraid she might hurt Lin Qiutong, grabbed her arm with a cold expression. "Have you had enough of this drama! Let go of Tongtong first!"
Lin Qiutong felt terrible. Was Shen Qiwen doing this on purpose? Didn't he see how heartbroken Lin Lanxing was, yet he was adding fuel to the fire.
After being pushed away by Shen Qiwen, Lin Lanxing felt even more ironic and wronged. "Shen Qiwen, are you two treating me right by doing this? What do you two even consider me?"
"Xingxing…"
Lin Qiutong wanted to hug Lin Lanxing to comfort her, but Shen Qiwen blocked her. Lin Lanxing was enraged; what if she went mad and hurt her and the baby?
Lin Qiutong glared anxiously at Shen Qiwen, signaling him to explain quickly.
Shen Qiwen naturally knew he couldn't alienate Lin Lanxing at this moment. After all, Lin Lanxing still had some use. He first shielded Lin Qiutong behind him, then looked at the sobbing Lin Lanxing. "Wife, you've misunderstood. I was splashed with coffee, so I came here to take a shower. Tongtong and I have nothing going on."
"Heh… haha, even now, you still want to lie to me? Look at these!"
Lin Lanxing threw the printed photos at Shen Qiwen's face. "I truly never dreamed that the two people I love the most would betray me. What else do you have to argue? Do you know how I felt when I saw these photos?"
Shen Qiwen lowered his head to look at the photos, merely frowning. The moment Lin Qiutong bent down to pick up a photo, her small face instantly lost all color.
These photos… who took them!
Since Lin Lanxing received these photos, have others seen them too?
What should she do?
If these photos got out, everything she had would be ruined—her reputation, her status, everything she possessed now.
Just then, Shen Qiwen said faintly, "These photos are clearly fake. You actually believed them?"
"Fake? Haha… I knew you'd say that. If you two hadn't done these things, who would bother making them up? Besides, I've already had someone verify them. These photos are real, not photoshopped, and not fake!"
Hearing this, Lin Qiutong abruptly stood up and grabbed Lin Lanxing's arm. "What did you say? You showed these photos to others?"
Lin Lanxing looked at Lin Qiutong mockingly, a cold sneer on her lips. "What? You're not pretending anymore? You're not saying the photos are fake? Since you like him so much, why don't you two get married? Why drag me down with you? And deliver another heavy blow?"
Lin Qiutong was internally panicked, but she was even more afraid of the furious Lin Lanxing.
"Xingxing, it's not like that…"
"You still want to quibble!" Lin Lanxing shoved Lin Qiutong hard. Lin Qiutong almost fell, but Shen Qiwen quickly caught her.
Seeing the shocked Lin Lanxing, Shen Qiwen looked at her coldly. "These photos are real, but nothing happened between Tongtong and me. As for that kissing photo, it was clearly staged by someone using angles. Think about it yourself, if Tongtong and I really had something, would I have married you!"
"Don't try to fob me off with that. If she's not feeling well, you go with her to the hospital. She's a grown woman, doesn't she have hands? You ran all the way here to take care of her, fed her fruit, massaged her, and you even… But ask yourself, when I'm not feeling well, what were you doing? Did you ever care about me?"
Lin Lanxing became more and more agitated. If Shen Qiwen had cheated with someone else, she would have torn that woman's face apart. But now that the woman was Lin Qiutong, she didn't know what to do, only able to roar in anger.
Lin Qiutong was surprised that Lin Lanxing knew about her hospital visit. Lin Qiutong's face instantly turned ashen.
"That's because Tongtong is pregnant!"
The moment these words were uttered, the living room fell silent. Lin Lanxing looked at Lin Qiutong's belly in disbelief. "You… you suddenly have a child together?"
Lin Qiutong's heart pounded. She immediately said, "This is not Shen Qiwen's child, it's Ah Yan's child."
This statement was like a thunderclap striking Lin Lanxing's head, leaving her, who was already furious, with a blank mind.
What kind of ghost story was Lin Qiutong telling?
Seeing Lin Lanxing's expression, Lin Qiutong immediately pulled the puppet-like Lin Lanxing to sit on the sofa. "Xingxing, this is a long story. I'll tell you slowly."
After listening to Lin Qiutong, Lin Lanxing felt terrible, her mind still buzzing. "You're saying… you got pregnant after you slept with Shen Chi Yan last time?"
Lin Qiutong nodded, her expression quite sad. "I didn't know what to do. Rationally, I should have aborted this child. After all, Ah Yan is a man with a family, a wife, and children. But I couldn't bear to part with it, and I'm unwilling. I've loved Ah Yan for so many years. Fate has finally given me a child, how could I let it go."
Lin Lanxing was completely distraught. She had come to catch them in the act but ended up hearing such huge news.
"Then you went to the hospital…"
Lin Qiutong cried, looking wronged and helpless. "At first, I didn't know what to do. The stress and anxiety caused me to bleed. When I went to the hospital, I coincidentally met Qiwen. Qiwen knew I was pregnant and helped me keep it a secret."
Lin Lanxing frowned and turned to look at Shen Qiwen. "Why did you go to the hospital?"
She was now like someone who had been repeatedly deceived, unable to believe anything they said.
Hearing this, Shen Qiwen lowered his head and remained silent.
Beside him, Lin Qiutong immediately held Lin Lanxing's hand. "Qiwen often gets indigestion from too many social events, so he went to the hospital for stomach pain."
Lin Lanxing immediately exploded. "Then why didn't he tell me?"
