Tan Si did not dare to stop running. She knew that she had to seize this opportunity. If the servants caught up with her and brought her back, there would really be nothing she could do.
If she had to watch as her child was claimed to not belong to her, and had to be kicked out of the house, she would rather go all out today.
Tan Si hugged her tummy as the wind blew under her feet. She really left the servants behind.
She had been pampered by her family since she was young, and Jiang An was at her beck and call. Such a life was too good for her.
Hence, no matter what, she had to live like this for the rest of her life. However, she did not expect so many things to happen and her family to fall.
However, the heavens were still on her side. The unexpected child was Zhao Yan’s, and she had tried her best to cling to this man.
She had thought that she could continue living a luxurious life like this, but now that she was going to be erased, she could not accept such an outcome obediently.
Even if she had to bleed, she had to drag everyone down with her.
Tan Si steeled herself and rushed into the banquet hall.
The people who came to the banquet were all wearing gowns. The entire banquet hall had a luxurious atmosphere. Tan Si, who was wearing a large maternity dress, looked out of place.
Even if Tan Si was fatter than before, one could tell who she was just by looking at her stomach.
The lively banquet suddenly quietened down. They did not know why she had run in.
“Zhao Yan, are you going to s.n.a.t.c.h my child away?” Tan Si shouted.
When Zhao Zhe saw his mother, he subconsciously wanted to go over, but Luo Xuan refused to let go. He could only stand there and watch.
Zhao Yan only felt a headache coming on. He had clearly been watched, so why was he still running out?
“It’s not what you think. Let’s talk about it in detail when we get back. This is a banquet. Don’t mess around.” Zhao Yan walked over and wanted to take her away.
However, Tan Si would not be coaxed by him anymore. She knew that if she really left, she would definitely be locked up. At that time, she would not have the chance to escape.
She shook Zhao Yan off. “Stop coaxing me here. I know what you and your mother are up to. First, you changed Nian Nian’s name. Then, you imprisoned me at home and used methods to cut me off from Nian Nian legally. When you get a new wife and register her account, I’ll become a tool to help you give birth.”
This was indeed the truth, but if she said it in front of so many people, where would the Zhao family put their face? Zhao Yan couldn’t care less and wanted to drag her away with brute force.
Unfortunately, after so many arguments, Tan Si already knew what he was up to. She quickly retreated and took out a fruit knife from her pocket and pressed it against her neck. “If you dare to touch me, I’ll kill myself now!”
This time, no one dared to move. It was not a good thing for someone to die, not to mention that Tan Si was pregnant.
Zhao Zhe cried and shouted, “Mom, don’t hurt yourself.”
Upon hearing his voice, Tan Si’s heart stirred. At this point, she had lost everything, but this child still loved her. Perhaps she had missed out on too many beautiful feelings.
Luo Xuan said coldly, “If you want to die, I won’t stop you. If you have the ability, do it yourself.”
She did not believe that Tan Si would really be willing to die. This vain woman only wanted to marry into the family through means.
Tan Si did not expect her to have such an att.i.tude. This was the Zhao family’s banquet. Did she not care if someone died?
Luo Xuan looked at her and said, “I’ll wait for you to do it.”
Tan Si was in a dilemma. There were so many people looking at her. It would be a joke if he put down the knife now.
When Jiang An saw the change in her expression, she knew that she was getting into a dead end again.
Tan Si had cared the most about other people’s opinions since she was young. In order to be perfect in the eyes of others, she had done many unreasonable things. If she was really forced into a corner, she would definitely not be rational.
“Tan Si, think about the child in your stomach. Don’t do anything stupid!” Jiang An shouted.
No one expected Jiang An to stand up and persuade Tan Si. Everyone knew that the two of them did not have a good relationship.
Tan Si was obviously persuaded. She could feel the child in her stomach moving. If she really cut her throat, the child would not survive.
Luo Xuan sneered, “If you don’t dare to die, don’t come out and embarra.s.s yourself. Even if you give birth to ten more children, you can forget about entering the Zhao family.”
Such words were simply forcing Tan Si to die. Jiang An did not expect her to not even care about human lives, let alone mention that the unborn child was her biological grandson.
“Shut up!” Jiang An snapped. “You’re killing someone!”
Luo Xuan was stunned. She did not expect to be reprimanded like this in her lifetime.
