Chapter 959
Now, not only did she face the crisis of being stripped of all her possessions, but she also lost her right to inherit from her grandfather. Life presented an unprecedented crisis, and she was still in her postpartum period, yet no one’s confinement was more distressing than hers.
Su Jiayu looked up, her heart filled with resentment: “Your Highness, the Queen, please help me. Before giving birth, I only had one intimate encounter, and that was with my husband on the night of our trip. How could my child not be his? I now seriously suspect that my husband has plotted against me, perhaps my cousin had a hand in it too! I want to turn back time to see what really happened on the night I got drunk at the hotel. I need to know who the father of my child is; I need to know the truth!”
Ye Xingguang looked at Su Jiayu, who had hit rock bottom: “Are you sure that before giving birth, you only had one intimate encounter?”
Su Jiayu nodded vigorously, her eyes misty with tears: “I am sure. I am conservative and had never planned to be with a man before marriage. That encounter happened because I was drunk. After that, my husband never touched me again. I had planned to wait until after we were married… Two months later, I found out I was pregnant and never had any relations again, but the paternity test results showed the child is not my husband’s. I have no way to defend myself now. If the child is truly not my husband’s, then the only explanation is that the man I was with that night, when I was drunk, was not my husband at all. I want to know the truth.”
Geshu Yuan stood aside, arms folded across his chest: “Muya Jiushu, aren’t you the one claimed to be able to turn the tide and reverse time? If you can, let her go back to the night she got drunk and let her find out what really happened, to change her fate!”
Ye Xingguang pondered and then called out: “Gui Baili.”
Geshu Yuan burst into laughter: “Muya Jiushu, what use is calling Gui Baili now? Gui Baili might be good at warfare,
but he has no ability to turn back time. Or do you want Gui Baili to help investigate who took advantage of Miss Su that night?”
Ye Xingguang simply couldn’t be bothered with Geshu Yuan. When Gui Baili stepped out from the entourage, she walked over and whispered something to Gui Baili.
Gui Baili nodded: “At your command, Your Highness.”
After that, Gui Baili left.
Ye Xingguang comforted Su Jiayu: “Calm down, I’ll help you. We’ll reverse time so you can return to that moment.”noveldrama
“Really… really?”
Su Jiayu couldn’t believe it, her eyes of despair couldn’t help but raise a glimmer of hope.
Ye Xingguang pulled Su Jiayu aside, whispered in her ear the method to use the regret medicine, and finally gave a serious reminder: “Remember, the time I can reverse for you is just one hour. Within that hour, you must find a way to save yourself.”
She had two regret medicines and did not carry them on her person. Instead, they were placed in the makeup box in her palace bedroom. She had sent Gui Baili to fetch them.
Among her entourage, she only trusted Gui Baili. Xiao Yun, Ji Qishu, and others could not withstand the undersea pressure and stayed in the palace with a pressure reduction system; they had not come with her. Only her family’s poisonous tumor could withstand the undersea pressure, and she wondered if it was because he was a vampire…
She now believed that a long time ago, a great flood had engulfed the Atlantis Empire, turning this ancient civilization into an underwater nation at the bottom of the sea, twenty thousand meters deep. Most people had perished, but only the vampire race had adapted to the underwater environment and survived this event…
