Little Miss Witch: Revenge of the Tainted Angel

Shit. Why did she suddenly feel so nauseous? Lin Meirong wondered. 

Was she starting to have morning sickness from her pregnancy? If so, this certainly wasn\'t the right time to show its symptoms. She wasn\'t sure how many people were aware of her pregnancy since she wasn\'t able to confirm it herself after waking up at the hospital because only Mu Jianyu was beside her when she woke up. 

She held her breath, trying to ignore how her stomach churned when the scent of the food drifted to her nose. It was too much for her to handle and she wasn\'t sure how long she could hold it in. 

The music ended and Li Chuntao came back with Mu Jianyu. Li Chuntao noticed the discomfort and paleness that was apparent on Lin Meirong\'s face. Her eyes landed on the untouched food in front of the woman. 

Was she starting to show the symptoms of her pregnancy? Li Chuntao couldn\'t help but be thrilled. She was completely aware that the only thing that Lin Meirong had over Mu Jianyu was the child in her belly. 

She wasn\'t sure what the situation was between the two but considering that the man ignored his mistress all this time while the latter glared daggers at him, Li Chuntao didn\'t even need to use her brain to know that there was a rift between the two. 

"Miss Lin, are you okay? You don\'t seem to look good. Are you sick?" She asked, pulling everyone\'s attention back at Lin Meirong who was struggling to keep the nauseous feeling she had at bay. 

"Y-yes, Lady Li. I\'m fine. Nothing to worry about. I just don\'t really have an appetite today, that\'s all." Lin Meirong pushed her plate away, took a glass of water, and slowly sipped it, hoping it would stop her urge to puke. It somehow worked and she sighed in relief. 

Meanwhile, Mu Jianyu could only look at \'Ying\' nervously as he sat next to her. Would she notice that LIn Meirong was pregnant? But he shouldn\'t be worried, right? Since she still had no idea of his affair with the said woman. 

"Is that so? Brother Zichen is a doctor. A surgeon, in fact, so if you aren\'t feeling well, I\'m sure he wouldn\'t mind giving u a quick check to see what ails you," were Li Chuntao\'s words, which not only shocked LIn Meirong, but Mu Jianyu as well. The two shared a knowing look and Lin Meirong shook her head. 

"There\'s no need to trouble yourself, Lady Li. I\'m really okay." She could feel herself breaking a cold sweat as the other guests looked at her curiously. 

"Hmm… Sister Lin, you shouldn\'t push yourself too hard, especially now that you\'re in a delicate situation." Lan Jinyao reminded everyone of what they\'ve seen during the real Li Xiuying\'s visit to their set a few weeks ago. She had taken the chance to reveal what Lin Meirong was trying her best to hide. 

Lin Meirong felt her blood rushing to her face. She was visibly shaking as she glared at Lan Jinyao\'s mocking face. This woman was really testing her patience!

\'Lan Jinyao, you bitch! Just wait and I\'ll deal with you soon!\' 

Li Chuntao let out a gasp and covered her mouth in shock but she had a hard time concealing the glee in her eyes.

"Miss Lin, is this true? Are you really pregnant? Congratulations!" She then turned to Mu Jianyu, who was stiffened next to her. "Jianyu, isn\'t this great? Miss Lin is pregnant. Didn\'t people say that pregnant women are like a lucky charm?" 

How ironic, wasn\'t it? That baby was considered a luck bringer, and yet its parents\' faces were so pale, it was as if they\'d seen a ghost. Neither of them had uttered a word after Li Chuntao\'s announcement. 

It took sometime before Mu Jianyu was able to comprehend his wife\'s words. 

"Yes, this is such a joyous event. I hope the baby will give the whole film crew some luck." He replied awkwardly.

It was Li Chuntao\'s words that swung a deadly blow on Lin Meirong. She suddenly felt very dizzy as she looked at Li Xiuying\'s smiling face. She wasn\'t planning to reveal her pregnancy to the public as her relationship with Mu Jianyu was on the rocks. 

Why did it feel like Lan Jinyao and Li Xiuying were ganging up against her at the same time? 

"Oh my! Congratulations, Sister Lin!" 

"A baby? This is such great news! I hope your baby will bring us luck for the film showing day!"

"So when\'s the wedding? Please don\'t forget to invite us all." A fellow actress beside Lin Meirong commented. 

Lin Meirong slightly opened her mouth and was about to say that there would be no wedding but when she caught a glimpse of Mu Jianyu\'s darkened face, she couldn\'t help but bit her inner cheek and scoffed in defiance.

\'Let\'s see how you explain yourself to your beloved wife later.\'

She faced her fellow actress and smiled. 

"Of course, there would be a wedding but we decided to prioritize the baby for the meantime." Shen then cupped the side of her face and made a pout. "I also wouldn\'t want to walk down the aisle with a bulging tummy." 

Li Chuntao found it hilarious that Lin Meirong took a sudden turn and gave Mu Jianyu an open jab. Wasn\'t this what he wanted? A child he could call his own? Too bad he\'d put his seed in bad soil as his face darkened even more than it already was. 

\'Ying, this is what you should have done when they made a fool out of you. You let them go at each other and let them do the job for you. You just let them taste the bitterness of their own medicine.\'

But knowing her twin sister, Ying must have tried her best to endure the pain and let them trample her marriage. However, this time was different because the \'Ying\' who was in front of them wouldn\'t let them go in peace. 

This witch would let them know and experience pain that was beyond what her sister had suffered. Ying had endured one hundred days, not doing anything, when she could have easily destroyed the cheating couple. 

It was obvious that Mu Jianyu wasn\'t pleased with Lin Meirong\'s announcement. What wedding? Why was this woman hell-bent to ruin his relationship with his wife? He was up to give child support but he wasn\'t planning to leave Ying, now more than ever. 

The talk continued and Li Chuntao tuned out their nonsense conversation as she already got the result she wanted from her willing prey. They wouldn\'t even notice that they were being used to turn against each other. One wouldn\'t be willing to let go of her claim on Mu Jianyu, the other would learn to hate the woman who made him a sinner in his wife\'s eyes. 

\'Lies after lies. I wonder if the two of you are ready for retribution in the future.\' 

Li Chuntao caught Shen Zichen\'s figure retreating from the corner of her eyes and decided to take a break from her act for a while. She excused herself telling them she needed to use the washroom. 

She easily caught up with Shen Zichen whom she easily spotted at a desolate area of the rented mansion.
