Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Brother-in-law is the Ex 16_1
Ho Zhen really regretted it, why on earth he had ever gotten involved with Huang Lei.
If he hadn’t been with Huang Lei, he might be about to marry Huang Jing by now.
Yes, that’s right, marry Huang Jing. In the past, he found all sorts of faults with her, but now, he truly felt that Huang Jing was very good.
The key point was that she could make money and wouldn’t spend his money, which was already very good.
As for not doing housework, he had come to terms with it now. Huang Jing was busy earning money, so if she didn’t do housework, it was fine; they could hire someone.
Looking at Huang Lei, clearly not understanding how to make money, yet she also didn’t do any housework.
Even if Huang Lei was presentable, so what? She only had a pretty face and a nice body, but all that required money.
The more Ho Zhen thought about it, the more he felt that his past self really had water in his brain, to have chosen such a woman.
But now that he wanted to have second thoughts, he realized some people were just not within his reach.
When Ho Zhen had just finished work and got home, he received a call from Huang Lei and his first reaction was that he didn’t want to answer it.
But given the relentless calls from the other side, a helpless Ho Zhen could only pick up the phone.
Huang Lei was not in a good mood and as soon as the call connected, she immediately demanded, "Why didn’t you answer the phone?"
Ho Zhen took a deep breath, "I was just in a web conference with a client."
Huang Lei glared at Ho Zhen for a while before glancing at the surroundings, "You’re lying to me, you clearly finished work."
If it wasn’t for the video call, Ho Zhen really wanted to roll his eyes. He really felt suffocated being monitored all the time.
He truly didn’t understand why Huang Lei was like this, and couldn’t help but recall that Huang Jing had once suggested Huang Lei might have an illness.
Although the Huang family denied it, now Ho Zhen felt that she really might have an illness.
For example, this illness could be that someone’s mental state wasn’t quite stable, and in order not to provoke that person, Huang Lixin and his wife always indulged her.
Ho Zhen really regretted it so much that his guts turned blue, wondering why he hadn’t realized she wasn’t mentally sound, something that couldn’t be found through a physical examination.
Seeing Ho Zhen not saying anything, Huang Lei immediately got upset, "What, is Huang Jing at home?"
In the past, she definitely wouldn’t have dared to be so arrogant, but now she wasn’t worried at all.
After being shouted at like that by Huang Lei, Ho Zhen sighed helplessly, "No, I was just thinking about the client’s quote."
Would Huang Lei believe Ho Zhen? Absolutely not, "Let me tell you, Ho Zhen, you’ve got all kinds of tricks up your sleeve, don’t even think about dumping me."
Huang Lei touched her belly silently, "Zhen, I’m pregnant, I’ve got your child."
Hearing this, Ho Zhen was shocked, so much so that he didn’t even realize his phone had slipped to the ground.
If it were in the past, knowing Huang Lei was pregnant would have made him very happy, as it meant he could be with Huang Lei.
But now, he didn’t want to marry Huang Lei at all. It would have been better if there were no child, but now Huang Lei was pregnant.
With this development, he knew it would be difficult not to marry her; knowing how Huang Lixin and his wife were, they would probably force him into marrying Huang Lei.
As for Huang Jing, Ho Zhen took a deep breath. Once she found out he had cheated, and that it was with Huang Lei, he knew what would happen; he definitely wouldn’t get off easy.
Ho Zhen took a deep breath, made up his mind, and was determined not to let Huang Lei give birth to this child, "Uh, Xiao Lei, I have something to tell you, remember we were talking about taking Huang Jing’s money."
Huang Lei hummed, "Right, didn’t you say there was about five hundred thousand? What about it?"
Ho Zhen mentioned that Huang Jing had changed the password: Not to mention that the five hundred thousand is gone, at least she would have gotten a bonus if she had completed the task this time.
Ho Zhen: We’re short by about six hundred thousand. Originally, with her money and mine combined, we could have made the down payment for that three-bedroom apartment.
Ho Zhen: But now, without that money, I really can’t pay for the house.
Ho Zhen: And if I can’t pay for the house, then I can’t marry you.
Upon hearing that Ho Zhen might not marry her, Huang Lei became so anxious that she burst into tears, repeatedly shouting: We must get married.
Huang Lei: We already have a child, I won’t abort the baby.
For Huang Lei, it wasn’t necessarily that she liked the child so much as she knew that having the child meant she could marry Ho Zhen.
Without the child, whether Ho Zhen would stay with her was a question in itself.
Huang Lei was now concerned about: Why didn’t you transfer Huang Jing’s money?
She remembered Ho Zhen mentioning they both knew each other’s bank card passwords, so why hadn’t the money been transferred?
What concerned her at the moment was whether Ho Zhen was tired of her and thus wanted to use this excuse to break up with her?
She had not failed to notice that Ho Zhen had been cold to her lately; she wasn’t foolish.
Therefore, she too had worried about the arrival of this child, and had even considered aborting it if possible.
After all, having a child would bring many troubles, and she had seen her colleagues become flustered after having children; she did not want to live like that.
But the current situation was different; this child was her opportunity, and if she missed it, where could she find a better man than Ho Zhen?
What’s more, the Huang Lixin couple might have noticed that she was pregnant.
Thinking of this, Huang Lei mustered up the courage to shout into the phone at Ho Zhen: Ho Zhen, I’m pregnant with your child.
Huang Lei: And my parents know that I’m pregnant.
With a thud, Ho Zhen had not expected that instead of good news, one piece of bad news after another would follow.
Huang Lei’s unwillingness to abort the child had already troubled him greatly, and to his surprise, Huang Lixin and his wife already knew about it.
At this moment, the only thought in his head was that he was truly doomed; he couldn’t escape marrying Huang Lei now.
Right at this moment, Huang Jing, who had just finished her busy work and went to the gym, opened the surveillance feed, wanting to see if anything had happened at home.
She did not expect that as soon as she turned on the monitor, she would hear such explosive information.
For Ho Zhen and Huang Lei, many things could happen between them, and having a child was not strange.
But the problem was, she remembered their first child was not born so quickly; they had their child more than a year after getting married.
And now they already had a child; if this got out, wouldn’t it confirm that Huang Lei escalated to her position by having the child and forcing Ho Zhen to marry her?
Huang Lei was not smart, and her doing this was not odd to Huang Jing; but the question was, how could Huang Lixin and his wife agree to this? They would never allow such a thing to happen.
Forget it, no matter what, they were definitely going to get married, and it was no longer up to Ho Zhen to regret it.
Even if they did marry, would their marriage be as happy as in the previous life?
Would it be the same as before, becoming the symbol of a loving couple in the eyes of friends and relatives?
