The Emperor Is My Child's Father

Qi Yu has had terrible luck. She married a wastrel, and after the wedding her mother-in-law made life difficult for her while her husband's concubine framed her.

Fortunately, the legitimate eldest grandson she bore for her husband's family is not her husband's child. Every day, she hopes her son will inherit everything from the family soon, so she can personally send them all to their graves.

Until she meets again the man she spent one night with, who turns out to be the emperor himself.

Qi Wenjin has always known what a scoundrel he used to be. After everything they have been through, he is grateful that his A Yu can still be by his side.

He knows his wife doesn't love him, but it doesn't matter. Love isn't that important. They have a child, one they have both cherished and raised.

Until the moment he learns that the child he has loved for years isn't his by blood. His hand trembles as he grips the woman. Eyes bloodshot, he demands in a fury, "Who was the bastard?"

If he can find the man and make him disappear, no one will be able to take his place, whether as A Yu's husband or as the child's father.

No one can tear his family apart.

[Content warning: The male lead, second male lead, and female lead are all non-virgins. The male lead also has another child from before he meets the female lead.]
