Bringing the Nation's Husband Home - Chapter 784: I'm Pregnant (5)

After Xu Jiamu threw the question out there, he fell into a long silence where he looked straight in the eyes in front of him. Then he lowered his eyelids.

Although he looked calm, there was still a hint of struggle on his face shown on the big screen, like he was fighting to make a decision.

Just when everyone thought that he didn't have anything else to say, he suddenly pulled out a USB stick from his pocket and handed it to the presenter beside him, then said, "Could I trouble you to play the audio file on here."

The presenter said curiously, "Alright."

The moment he reached his arm out to take the USB, Xu Jiamu suddenly forcefully grabbed it back. The expression on his face was a little pale and his lips were pursed tightly, but after a long moment, he finally let the USB fall into the presenter's hands.

Soon enough, the sound of a conversation broke out on set.

"Ma, can I ask you a question?"

"Jiamu, ask."

"Did you or did you not know that my brother likes Qiao Qiao?"

"Jiamu, why do you suddenly ask?"

"Ma... Back then, when I was in a coma in the hospital, the doctors had no way of knowing when I'll wake up, and Xu Enterprise was in danger, so you asked my brother and Qiao Qiao to see to Xu Enterprise. Actually... I've been thinking that with my brother's personality, how would he suddenly agree to play me. Only now, I realize that it was because of Qiao Qiao."

"Jiamu..."

"Ma, you knew my brother liked Qiao Qiao for a long time now, didn't you? Back then, you used her as bait to get him to agree to play me, and pretend to be a fake married couple with her, am I right?"

"Jiamu, it's been so long since you've come back to visit mama... It's rare that you're back, can you not mention that bas... them."

"Ma, you leaked the news online didn't you? You disclosed my brother and Qiao Qiao's address to the reporters, didn't you? And the two photos of Qiao Qiao and my brother having dinner together, didn't I tell you to rip them up? Why didn't you rip them up but released them behind my back? Ma, my brother and Qiao Qiao, they're helping us. Why are you using the fact that they helped us to now ruin them?"

"Jiamu, don't be mad... Mama promises, mama promises this is the last time..."

With that, the conversation came to a spontaneous end. What they said next, nobody would know...

Just then, an odd silence filled the set.

Xu Jiamu stood at the center of the stage, and quietly raised the microphone. "I believe I needn't say much else, right? The recorded conversation just now explains it all."

His mother did so many terrible things. He was angry with her, he resented her, but he never imagined that there would be a day where he'd stand against his own mother.

He knew that she hoped for him to go home. The person his mother cared for most in this world was her son.

When he went back today, his mother was so happy, but she didn't know that he had a motive behind being there. He purposefully said those things to her.

Deep down inside, he knew that after they played that conversation, the online abuse would be redirected from Qiao Anhao and Lu Jinnian to his mother.
