Chapter 221
Liu Yun had just said she brought Chenyang here for a specific reason: first, to help Qin Fei’Er break through that final barrier between her and Chenyang.
Second, she wanted to use this method to cure her own special condition: her infertility!
But beyond that, she also had a third, secret purpose she couldn’t easily voice!
And to achieve this goal, she needed Chenyang to finish inside her.
To put it bluntly, she wanted to use this opportunity to get pregnant!
Ever since she discovered yesterday that another woman was carrying her husband’s child, Liu Yun had calmly assessed her situation.
While her marriage hadn’t completely shattered yet, the mistress’s interference—and the fact that she was pregnant—was like a sharp knife poised to sever their marital bond.
Just one more conflict between them, and their marriage would shatter completely.
Her husband wasn’t afraid of divorce. Once they split, he could immediately and legitimately bring his mistress home.
Liu Yun wasn’t afraid of divorce either. After all, ever since she’d been diagnosed as infertile, the marriage had brought her nothing but endless pain and torment.
A divorce would make all her troubles vanish into thin air. And with her current status, once she was free again, she could undoubtedly live an incredibly comfortable life!
But for Liu Yun, all of that could only happen after she had resolved all her problems.
Because if they divorced now, her husband would get his happy ending, and the mistress, barely pregnant, would be legitimized as the new wife.
Meanwhile, Liu Yun herself would only get the freedom that should have been hers all along.
To put it bluntly, if she divorced before settling her scores, Liu Yun would be the biggest loser in this marriage.
She refused to let that bastard and his whore win, and she wasn’t about to be cast aside as a failure.
Even if she couldn’t break them up, she would leave as the victor. And as she left, she would humiliate those two one last time, and do it viciously.
After careful consideration, Liu Yun realized the only way to fight back was to get pregnant.
Her husband scorned her because she couldn’t conceive.
Her infertility was what gave the mistress an opening, and it was also the source of her constant, unspoken humiliation.
If she managed to get pregnant at this critical juncture, she could prove she wasn’t the "barren hen" her husband called her. It would also put the mistress on the defensive, making it much harder for her to secure her position.
More importantly, it would be a way to get back at her husband—an eye for an eye!
Furthermore, once her in-laws learned she was pregnant, their attitude would surely do a complete one-eighty. If she then revealed her husband’s affair, the mistress’s life would become a living hell, and her husband would face immense pressure from his family—perhaps without Liu Yun having to lift a finger.
And after orchestrating all of that, Liu Yun would file for divorce. Then, she would undoubtedly emerge as the one and only victor.
Killing three birds with one stone!
She would save face and vent the rage in her heart.
It was, by all accounts, the perfect plan.
But now, after all that effort, Qin Fei’Er had snatched away her chance to get pregnant.
It didn’t derail her plan entirely, but its success was now delayed indefinitely.
Qin Fei’Er didn’t know what Liu Yun was thinking, but when she saw that her friend seemed genuinely upset, she dropped the playful act.
"I only took Chenyang’s ’essence,’ you’re not really going to get mad at me over that, are you?"
Liu Yun sighed. "Feifei, you don’t understand."
"I’d love to understand, but you have to tell me what’s going on first, don’t you?"
"I... Forget it. Let’s not talk about this."
’Getting pregnant is a private matter, after all. I don’t want to ruin this nice moment.’ So she decided against telling her.
But Qin Fei’Er had been her best friend for years. Seeing that Liu Yun was hiding something, she wasn’t about to just let it go.
Of course, she knew that asking directly might not work, so after a moment’s thought, she tried a different approach. "Weren’t you curious about the irreplaceable gift I wanted to give Chenyang? Tell me what’s on your mind, and I’ll tell you my secret."
