After Divorce, I Became Pregnant With My Ex-Husband's Child

Xu Wen Jing instinctively replied, “Of course!”

“In that case, whether I’m poor or rich, you’d be willing to marry me, right?” Lin Yi Chen continued to inquire.

Xu Wen Jing thought it was getting tricky, but she still immediately replied, “Of course! I love you for who you are!” She was getting used to saying whatever was necessary.

But she didn’t expect that in the next moment, Lin Yi Chen would let out a sigh of relief and say with a smile, “I knew it. Even if the whole world leaves me, I know that you will always stand by my side.”

Then he changed the subject and continued, “Wen Jing, I plan to sever my relationship with Lin Haowei. That way, there will be no connection between Lin Group and me anymore. However, at that time, I might have nothing, but you won’t mind, will you? You love me so much, you won’t want to leave me, right?”

With these words, Xu Wen Jing’s mind suddenly went blank.

What did she just hear?

Lin Yi Chen, this idiot, actually wants to sever ties with Lin Haowei and give up the inheritance of the Lin Group?

Did he think she would genuinely fall in love with him, the son who lost the status of inheriting the Lin Group and was going to be poor?

“Ah Chen, don’t joke around! You’re the only heir to the Lin Group!” Xu Wen Jing tried to calm herself and urged Lin Yi Chen not to make rash decisions.

However, Lin Yi Chen was unusually serious as he said, “Wen Jing, everything I’m saying is true! Lin Haowei thinks that without the Lin Group, I, Lin Yi Chen, am nothing? I want to achieve something on my own! Wen Jing, believe in me. I will start from scratch and provide you with a life even better than what the Lin Group can offer. It’s just that, for a while, I might have nothing. As for the wedding… if you don’t mind, I’d like to find a church, make a simple vow. Later, when I succeed and have the means, we can have the grandest wedding. What do you say?”

Listening to Lin Yi Chen’s words, Xu Wen Jing found them difficult to accept, even when just thinking about it.

She was no longer a naive teenager of seventeen or eighteen. She couldn’t be easily deceived. Lin Yi Chen’s words seemed like the typical tactics of a deceitful man.

However, she didn’t want to be too harsh in her response. “Ah Chen, even though I don’t know what happened between you and your father, the Lin Group is such a massive family business. Are you really willing to let others take advantage of it? You were born at the pinnacle of the pyramid, why choose to give up everything now? You’ll regret it in the future for sure.”

“I won’t regret it. If I return to the Lin Group, I’ll just become my father’s puppet! Wen Jing, do you want me to live in humiliation under his control for the rest of my life?” Lin Yi Chen’s reaction was intense and passionate.

However, Xu Wen Jing was dismissive.

Humiliation?

It was the Lin Group worth billions!

If she could have that much money, inherit such a massive company, she would gladly endure any humiliation even a hundred times more!

“Ah Chen, are you overthinking this? Besides, even if you were a puppet, your father is already in his fifties. If you endure a few more years, won’t the company become yours? Then, you’ll be able to control your own destiny, right?” Xu Wen Jing gently reasoned with Lin Yi Chen, in her view, he was being overly dramatic.

Leaving aside a multi-billion-dollar company inheritance and severing ties with Lin Haowei, it seemed like he had lost his mind.

“Wen Jing, I thought you’d understand me!” Lin Yi Chen suddenly sounded exhausted.

“Lin Group is worth a lot, but I’m not happy! Don’t you understand? And even if I return to the Lin Group, do you really think I’ll be the one to ultimately inherit the company? You’re wrong. My father despises me the most; he would never actually let me inherit the company. Otherwise, he wouldn’t refuse to give me even a tiny share.” Lin Yi Chen sighed in frustration.

“How is that possible?” Xu Wen Jing was skeptical.

“You might not know, but he resents my mother for betraying him so he’s never liked me since I was a child. I used to think he’d let me inherit the company because I’m his only son, but I later found out he had no such intentions. Wen Jing, I only have you now. Tomorrow, I will release a statement severing ties. The day after tomorrow, at 5 o’clock in the evening, I’ll be waiting for you at Maria Church. I’ll wait until 8 o’clock. If you’re willing to marry me, please come. If you don’t… I can understand. That’s it, I’m hanging up.”

With that, Lin Yi Chen hung up the phone abruptly and tossed it onto the coffee table, expressionless.

He thought to himself, his acting skills were wasted when he wasn’t in the film industry.

But now, Xu Wen Jing wouldn’t be able to harass him with phone calls for a while.

He was indeed quite clever!

Then, Lin Yi Chen walked confidently towards the bedroom.

Dian Dian was already fast asleep. Traveling continuously was quite draining for a child.

Seeing Jiang Wan Yu looking at Dian Dian’s sleeping face with such tenderness, Lin Yi Chen couldn’t help but feel jealousy.

In the next moment, Lin Yi Chen pulled Jiang Wan Yu’s body into his arms and then leaned down, capturing her crimson lips.

“Mmm… Yi Chen, what if Dian Dian wakes up?” Jiang Wan Yu, finally catching her breath after a brief pause, looked nervously toward the bed where Dian Dian was sleeping.

Lin Yi Chen grinned mischievously, then lifted Jiang Wan Yu’s petite and soft body. “Don’t worry, there are two bedrooms here, right?”

He carried Jiang Wan Yu’s body and walked steadily towards the adjacent bedroom.

“Xiaoyu, the day after tomorrow, Xu Wen Jing should voluntarily break off the engagement with me again.” Lin Yi Chen suddenly said after placing Jiang Wan Yu’s body on the soft bed.

Although it might be a bit of a mood spoiler to bring up Xu Wen Jing at this moment, he knew that Xiaoyu would be pleased to hear this news.

Sure enough, when Jiang Wan Yu heard this, her eyes lit up slightly.

Then, she asked coyly, “How did you manage that? Xu Wen Jing isn’t someone who’s easy to shake off.”

Unless, she wouldn’t have been able to re-engage with Yi Chen after breaking off their engagement once before.

“Give me a kiss, and I’ll tell you!” Lin Yi Chen immediately replied.

Jiang Wan Yu rolled her eyes in response but still leaned forward to gently kiss the corner of Lin Yi Chen’s lips. “Can you tell me now?”

“Not enough. I want a kiss like this…” Saying that, he tightened his grip around Jiang Wan Yu’s waist and passionately kissed her, his tongue exploring deeply.

He only released her when Jiang Wan Yu’s breath became ragged, then smiled slyly and said, “I told her that tomorrow, I will sever my father-son relationship with Lin Haowei and give up inheriting the Lin Group.”

At this statement, Jiang Wan Yu couldn’t help but be surprised.

Then, a look of realization crossed her face.

Back when Lin Zi Xuan was alive, everyone knew that Lin Haowei favored him, and there seemed to be no chance for Lin Yi Chen to inherit the Lin Group. That’s why Xu Wen Jing had given up on their engagement.

But things had changed after Lin Zi Xuan’s death.

As the only remaining heir of the Lin family, Lin Yi Chen had naturally become the inheritor of the Lin Group.

Xu Wen Jing was a person who enjoyed luxury and extravagance. Her real interest was never in Lin Yi Chen himself but in the vast wealth of the Lin Group behind him.

However, once the declaration to sever the father-son relationship and give up inheriting the Lin Group was made, Lin Yi Chen essentially had no chance of inheriting the Lin Group.

How would Xu Wen Jing and the Xu family, who had been planning for so long, endure this?

To achieve this, Xu Wen Jing had even sacrificed her own uterus, rendering herself incapable of bearing children.

Yi Chen’s move was a direct hit to the core!

“Are you really planning to make that declaration? Once it’s out, there’s no turning back, and he’s still your family,” Jiang Wan Yu, though happy that Xu Wen Jing’s issue was resolved, couldn’t help but feel sorry for what Lin Yi Chen was about to do.

Seeing the concern in Jiang Wan Yu’s eyes, Lin Yi Chen immediately said, “What family? He doesn’t deserve to be called family. But if you’re genuinely concerned about me losing so much, how about you cooperate with me later? Hmm?” Lin Yi Chen’s voice dragged on, sounding sensual and seductive.
