Chapter 242: The Scheme Set Up

When Li's father saw that Li was about to bang her head against the wall to prove her innocence, his expression changed drastically, and he grabbed her.

Li's father held Li Li back with one hand to prevent her from doing anything foolish, while urgently advising Ye Tiandong, "Son-in-law, look at Lili, she's been wronged by you and is even willing to die to prove her innocence. You can't be so heartless."

They're siblings, and I guarantee there's absolutely nothing going on between them. I hope you won't listen to what others are saying, and quickly take Lili back so they can live a good life together.

Ye Tiandong looked at the man with the pointed mouth and monkey cheeks and sneered, "Don't you know what kind of person your son is? I think you parents probably knew all along, and the whole family conspired to cheat me out of my property."

"I will sue you for fraud, and none of you will escape."

Hearing Ye Tiandong's harsh and resolute words, Li's mother's guilty eyes flickered.

She truly had no idea that her daughter was pregnant with Li Bin's child.

She never imagined things would escalate to such a serious point.

Before Li Li got married, Li Bin had feelings for her.

But later she heard that Li Bin introduced her to many bosses, who all appreciated Li Li. Then she started dating Ye Tiandong and eventually got married.

She was initially worried that Li Bin would interfere with Li Li's life and affect her marriage, but she noticed that Li Li didn't seem to be so averse to Li Bin, and it seemed that Ye Tiandong had even introduced business opportunities to Li Bin.

She, as a mother, was very pleased that her children got along so well.

Previously, Li Li always had a bad relationship with the Li family father and son, which put her, as the mother, in a difficult position. Now that the siblings can get along well, Li Bin might consider Li Li's support and stop having such messy thoughts.

Sometimes when Li Li went back to her parents' home, Li Bin would call her to spend time alone with him. She would still worry and reminded Li Bin to spend less time alone with him, hoping that the two of them could avoid suspicion and not let Ye Tiandong misunderstand. But in the end, she was scolded by Li Li.

She remembered clearly that when she mentioned keeping her distance from Li Bin, Li Li became very agitated and said something that left her speechless.

She said, "You were the one who tried to push me onto Li Bin's side back then, and now you're the one advising me to stay away from him. Have you forgotten how you reacted when I told you about Li Bin harassing me? You called me shameless and shameless, and said I haven't dared to say a word to you since. Do you know how much I've suffered these past years?"

Do you know what I've been through all these years? Now you're telling me to keep my distance? Do you think it's too late?

Only now did Li's mother fully understand the true meaning of her daughter's words.

At this point, Ye Tiandong turned his attention to them, the parents, and Li's mother had no way to deny it.

Li's father felt even more guilty.

Although he was surprised by the fact that Li Li was pregnant, he knew perfectly well what his son had done to Li Li in the past.

The courtyard where we live now, and the relatively better living conditions we have in the last two years, are all changes that happened after I married Ye Tiandong.

He knew better than anyone what his son was up to, but he never expected that the brat had such a clever plan, actually wanting to play the long game and catch a big fish.

If Li Bin hadn't gotten into trouble, Ye Tiandong wouldn't have discovered the shady dealings between him and Li Li.

If Li Bin's plan proceeds smoothly, it will indeed bring wealth and prosperity to the Li family.

pity……

No matter what he knows right now, he absolutely cannot admit it.

Li's father's eyes darted around frantically, revealing a fawning face, as he continued to persuade, "Son-in-law, don't be impulsive. Li Bin and Li Li are truly innocent. We, as their parents, can all testify to that."

"You said that if I married Lili's mother, those two children would be siblings. Lili is my daughter. How could we possibly allow that kind of thing to happen between them? Wouldn't that be against ethics? We understand that basic principle."

After Li Li finished speaking, she looked at her mother and winked at her, "My dear husband, don't you think so?"

Li's mother's blank expression froze for a moment before she reacted and hurriedly echoed, "Yes, they are siblings. Li Bin has dated before, and there is absolutely no relationship between the two of them."

"Tian Dong, Lili is pregnant now. Don't do anything to hurt her. If anything happens to the baby, you'll regret it for the rest of your life. At this time, you must think twice before you act, no matter what."

His parents took turns trying to persuade Ye Tiandong, but he refused to give them any more chances to argue. "Stop talking. Come with me to get a divorce tomorrow morning."

Seeing Ye Tiandong's resolute attitude, Li Li panicked and became agitated. She grabbed his arm and said, "Brother Dong, I don't want a divorce! Why should I get a divorce? I haven't done anything to betray you. I'm carrying your child! Are you going to abandon your wife and child? Are you having an affair? Are you deliberately using this excuse to abandon me?"

"Let go." Ye Tiandong looked at her hand that was holding him with disgust, and made a move to shake her off. "If you don't let go, don't blame me for being impolite."

Li Li was pushed away by him.

Ye Tiandong patted his sleeves, looked at Li Li with disgust, and said coldly, "Don't touch me, I find it dirty."

"We're getting a divorce tomorrow morning, and this house is rented for you at my own expense. You'd better move out by tomorrow afternoon."

Upon hearing Ye Tiandong's words, Li's father was immediately shocked.

Move away?

Where can they move to?

Ye Tiandong is actually going to take back all the houses. Won't that leave them homeless?

My son is currently in detention, and if no one comes to his rescue, he will be sentenced to at least several years in prison.

They had been hoping to rely on Ye Tiandong, but this unexpected turn of events occurred.

They're getting old, and the weather's starting to get cold. Where can they go if they move out?

We can't just go back to our rural hometown, can we?

Upon hearing Ye Tiandong's words, Li Li's face was filled with even more despair.

Ye Tiandong was determined to divorce her and take back everything he had given her.

How can this be?

What will happen to the baby in my belly after the divorce? The baby is now almost 5 months old.

Miscarriage can be dangerous.

Once divorced, it would confirm the fact that she had an affair with her brother, and how could she possibly have a place in this society?

She will be seen as a slut.

Of course, if Ye Tian divorced her, she would absolutely not give birth to Li Bin's child; that would be a disgrace to her.

Ignoring Ye Tiandong's warning, Li Li hugged him tightly. "Brother Dong, please forgive me...please forgive me, okay? I really didn't do anything to betray you. Li Bin did harass me before, but I didn't like him. For you, I've been staying away from him and remaining chaste for you. The child in my belly is definitely yours."

Now, the only way for her to gain favor with Ye Tiandong is to deny everything and insist that the child is his.
