Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den
Chapter 172 Ridiculous
Helian Minxiao, with his signature deep blue eyes and faint smile, slowly walked into the garden, and first nodded gently to his father, Mr. Roy, who was sitting on the sofa.
Then he walked towards his mother Helian Rongyue, gently took her well-maintained hands and gave her a light kiss. This scene filled the living room with a warm atmosphere.
However, Roy, who was sitting next to him, narrowed his eyes in dissatisfaction, with a hint of smile on his lips, but his eyes revealed a bit of "warning": "You little bastard, you want to take advantage of my baby again, I hate it when I see you."
There was a hint of doting in his tone, but he couldn't hide the slight rebuke he was giving his son.
"Why are you back? What's the matter?" Roy asked, with a hint of curiosity and inquiry in his eyes. He glared at Helian Minxiao unhappily, as if he had a premonition that his son's trip must be about something important.
Helian Minxiao sensed the change in his father's tone, and he immediately stopped smiling and became extremely serious.
He stood up straight, looked at his parents firmly, and said slowly: "Dad, Mom, I do have something I want to discuss with you."
Helian Rongyue saw this and had an inexplicable premonition in her heart. She had never seen her son so serious before, so she put away her usual gentle smile, looked at her son seriously, and said softly: "Go ahead, we are listening."
Helian Minxiao took a deep breath, as if he was making some kind of decision, and then slowly said: "I... fell in love with a girl, and she is pregnant."
This sentence was like thunder, exploding in Helian Rongyue's heart. She widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief, but then was replaced by an indescribable joy: "I'm going to be a grandmother!" She said this sentence almost cheering.
However, Roy at the side seemed more complicated. He was silent for a moment, then asked softly, "What about Anne? Your grandmother has always hoped that you could marry into the Wilson family and inherit her title." His tone was full of worry and helplessness.
Helian Minxiao frowned upon hearing this, but his tone was very firm: "Dad, I didn't agree with this marriage from the beginning. Marriage should be based on love, not the exchange of interests. Besides, you married into the Helian family for love, and I have always admired your courage. I don't want to repeat the same mistake, and I will not sacrifice my happiness for the title. I have decided that I will not marry Annie."
Helian Rongyue listened to her son's words, her heart filled with relief and pride. She gently patted the back of Helian Minxiao's hand and said softly: "Minxiao, you have grown up and know what you want. You should solve this matter by yourself. Your father and I will respect your choice and will not interfere. We believe that you are capable of handling everything."
Helian Minxiao nodded, a trace of gratitude and relief flashed in his eyes. He knew that no matter how bumpy the road ahead would be, as long as he had the support and understanding of his family, he would be fearless. He once again cast a grateful glance at his parents, then turned and left the garden, revealing an unprecedented firmness and confidence in his back.
……
In the courtyard, the autumn sun cast a golden glow on the ground, but it could not warm Helian Rongyue's heart at the moment. She stared at her son Helian Minxiao's departing back, and inexplicably felt a little uneasy and worried.
Turning her head to look at her smiling husband Roy beside her, she whispered, "Honey, I always feel like Min Xiao has something he hasn't finished telling us."
Roy's smile gradually faded. He felt his wife's worry and gently held her hand. "Don't worry, Xiaoyue. If something really happened, we will know. Let me ask the housekeeper to check Minxiao's situation in the country and the woman he mentioned."
After that, Roy called the butler and said, "Old Li, go check all the movements of the young master in the country, especially everything about Miss Ji he mentioned."
Butler Lao Li responded and left, moving quickly and efficiently. Soon, he returned to the Helian couple with a complicated expression, as if he was carrying a heavy secret.
Helian Rongyue saw this and asked hurriedly, "What did you find out? Tell me quickly."
Butler Old Li hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Young master...the Miss Ji Yan he likes, is actually very close to the young master and the other four young masters." Having said that, he paused and secretly observed the reactions of the Helian couple.
After hearing this, Helian Rongyue was surprised but still remained polite: "Oh, Ji Yan, this name sounds pretty good."
However, Roy's reaction was completely different. He gently held his forehead with his hand, his face full of complex emotions of helplessness and doting, but more of it was worry about his son.
At this time, the housekeeper Lao Li continued to add: "But, Master and Madam, in fact... Miss Ji is currently pregnant, and the father of the child... has not yet been determined, because she has contacts with the young master and the other four young masters."
As soon as these words came out, Helian Rongyue's face turned pale instantly, and her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief and anger: "You mean, she... when she was with Min Xiao, she was also with other men..."
Roy's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. He took the file handed over by the butler and flipped through it quickly. The more he read, the angrier he became: "What is this woman's family background? How could she do such a thing!"
The housekeeper, Lao Li, whispered, "Master, all of this is in the files. Although Miss Ji's family background is not prominent, she is very capable. For her, someone even forced her ex-fiancé into bankruptcy. Before, she was even placed in an apartment jointly funded by the young master and his family."
When Helian Rongyue heard the word "before", he asked in confusion: "What does before mean?"
Butler Lao Li replied: "According to the investigation, Miss Ji has already left the young master's apartment."
Despite this, Roy still slammed the file on the table and said angrily: "Such a woman has such a low character! For her, Min Xiao can be so absurd!"
Helian Rongyue took a deep breath and tried to calm her inner excitement, but her face was still solemn: "Let Min Xiao come back immediately, we need an explanation. A woman like this must not become the daughter-in-law of the Helian family!"
Upon hearing this, the housekeeper Lao Li bowed slightly and replied, "Yes, ma'am. I'll arrange it right away." After that, he left in a hurry, leaving only the Helian couple there, each with their own thoughts, waiting for the unknown answer.
