Chapter 958

Time ticked by, and two minutes later, the citizens of the empire surfaced from beneath the city, only to be stopped outside the temple’s waterproof layer by the imperial soldiers, preventing her from getting any closer.

The person who came was a young girl who looked weary beyond her years, holding a baby who was still nursing in her arms, eliciting an involuntary compassion from onlookers.

Ye Xingguang waved her hand, signaling the soldiers to let the girl holding the baby come over.

After the soldiers relaxed, the girl walked through the waterproof membrane and knelt before Ye Xingguang with a thud, her voice filled with despair, “Your Highness the Queen, if you truly possess the ability to reverse time, please help me.”

Seeing the wailing baby in the girl’s arms, Ye Xingguang felt a surge of tenderness, walked over, and helped her up, “Stand up before we talk.”

After the girl, with her wailing baby, stood up, Ye Xingguang gently asked her, “Tell me, what happened to you?”

The girl’s name was Su Jiayu, who had encountered a scoundrel from another princely state trying to make his fortune in the capital. When the scoundrel started pursuing her, he was extremely attentive—always picking her up after work, bringing her flowers, and buying all sorts of snacks. Her friends and colleagues were extremely envious of her, and she, under the barrage of his affection, felt she had found true love and was immensely happy.

Later, during a trip with the scoundrel to another princely state, he had arranged for a candlelit dinner in a couples suite at the hotel one evening; they enjoyed the dinner and had quite a bit to drink.

Su Jiayu got drunk, and the next morning when she woke up, the scoundrel was lying beside her, wishing her good morning.noveldrama

Su Jiayu realized that, having gotten drunk last night, it was only logical that they had ended up sleeping together.

Since it was her boyfriend and since they were in love, Su Jiayu didn’t feel there was anything wrong with what happened. After the trip, she even brought him home to meet her parents.

Two months later, Su Jiayu found out she was pregnant, and the two smoothly went on to have a shotgun wedding.

Five months into the pregnancy, Su Jiayu and the scoundrel held their wedding.

Su Jiayu’s family was quite well-off, and she was an only child.

After the wedding, Su Jiayu’s father intended to groom his son-in-law, promoting him within the company—after all, the family business would ultimately be left to Su Jiayu, and having her husband support her was not a bad idea.

When Su Jiayu was seven months pregnant, her father suddenly passed away from a heart attack, leaving her to inherit his legacy and take over the company. But as she was pregnant, she certainly couldn’t manage the company; the son-in-law smoothly took over, stepping into his late father-in-law’s shoes.

After ten months of pregnancy, Su Jiayu gave birth to a son. Despite her father’s death being unbearable, life didn’t seem too bad for her—God was still kind to her, and she was supposed to have a very happy life ahead.

However, everything changed within a week of her giving birth.

The scoundrel claimed that the baby didn’t look like him and demanded a paternity test.

The results of the paternity test shockingly revealed that the child wasn’t his!

In an instant, Su Jiayu was thrown into the furnace of moral scrutiny!

The scoundrel demanded a divorce and insisted that Su Jiayu leave without a single asset, arguing that she had cheated first, and the child wasn’t his!

Su Jiayu’s family still had her grandfather, who held even larger assets than her father. Originally, he intended for Su Jiayu to inherit the family business, but her infidelity scandal in the capital had tarnished the family’s reputation so severely that the grandfather disinherited her, planning to leave the family fortune to her cousin instead. Because of this, her mother also harbored intense disappointment…
