Chapter 240 - Although It Hasn’t Been Two Months Yet, Did He Make Trouble For You (2/2)
“Ning Qing” Xiao Zhou patted Ning Qing’s shoulder lightly and comforted her saying, “What are you afraid of? The situation now is different since you are pregnant. If worse comes to worst, we can just break the 3 month promise. Could Young Master Lu actually not want you and the baby?”
Ning Qing curled her lips into a smile. She touched her stomach and her tone had the gentleness of a new mother. “Baby, maybe many other people might say that your arrival is not at the right time, but Mum thinks that it is just right. You came at the time when Dad and Mum really wanted you to come. Aren’t you the best gift that heaven has given to Dad and Mum? Don’t worry, with Mum here, the rights and privileges you would enjoy as Little Young Master Lu will not be lacking. Before Daddy comes back, Mummy will protect you well.”
Xiao Zhou heard her words and she had a glow in her eyes. She followed behind Ning Qing all these years. They had chemistry between them. “Ning Qing, you’ve thought of your solution already right?”
“Heh! As for the solution, didn’t you say it just now, Xiao Zhou?”
…
Guang Qing, outside the President’s office
“Madam, president is busy with work. I will go report to him first…” Zhu Rui politely blocked both Song Yajing and the old butler behind her.
But he was unable to do so. Song Yajing stretched out her hand to push open the door of the office.
Lu Shaoming was sitting on the office chair to look at a doc.u.ment. The manager of the sales department was standing beside his desk reporting to Lu Shaoming in a soft tone.
Hearing someone barge in, Lu Shaoming lifted his eyes to look, and he furrowed his eyebrows.
“I have to deal with this.”
“Yes, President.” The manager of the sales department left. When he met with Song Yajng on the way out, he bowed down and greeted her, “Madam.”
Song Yajing waved her hand and the manager walked out the door.
Zhu Rui looked at Lu Shaoming in distress. Lu Shaoming gave him an expression and Zhu Rui knew what he meant, and he closed the office door.
There was only the pair of mother and son left in the office, and also the old butler.
“Mum, what are you urgently looking for me for? Can’t you even wait for a moment?” Lu Shaoming slowly stood up and came in front of Song Yajing.
Song Yajing received the doc.u.ments from the old butler’s hands and pa.s.sed it to Lu Shaoming. “Shaoming, you look at it yourself.”
Lu Shaoming did not take the doc.u.ment. He stuck one of his hands into his pocket and said calmly, “Mum, if you have something to say, then say it. You don’t have to beat around the bush. I have work to do.”
“Ning Qing is pregnant, it has been 11 weeks and is almost reaching 3 months.”
Song Yajing said it directly, and while she spoke, she was observing Lu Shaoming’s facial expressions.
But she was disappointed.
Because Lu Shaomings expression did not change. He scrunched his eyebrows, curled up his lips into a mysterious smile, and said, “Mum, what are you trying to say?”
“Don’t you get it? When did you get in bed with Ning Qing? The dates do not match up. Is the child in her stomach your child? Shaoming, I have told you from the beginning — she had a few men before you, she doesn’t love you with her heart. Look, someone else impregnated her. Don’t get cheated by her. The Lu family could not accept a child that has unclear roots.”
“Mum.” Lu Shaoming was frowning as he interrupted her. “It seems that you are familiar with my matters? Wouldn’t I know if the child in Ning Qing’s stomach is mine? Not to mention, when did mum develop the interest in ordering someone to specifically invade others’ privacy?”
Song Yajing froze for a moment. She rushed over once she heard about Ning Qing’s pregnancy. 3 months. It was easy for her to deduce when this child was conceived. Heavens was also at her aid. The words that he had said while half threatening her have become the weapon binding her to take further action. And now heaven was creating another road for her.
She only had to tell him that Ning Qing was pregnant for 3 months. No man on earth would be able to accept the woman they love having another man’s child in her belly.
He would definitely hate Ning Qing and leave her.
If he left Ning Qing out of hate, what else could Ning Qing do to battle with her?
But it didn’t turn out like this. Lu Shaoming’s reaction was too abnormal; it was totally different from what she had imagined.
“Shaoming, don’t you know what are you saying now? You met for the first time in America. You have not known each other for 2 months. Don’t be silly…”
“Mum, I will only ask this of you. How many months has Ning Qing been pregnant?”
Song Yajing’s entire body froze for a moment, and she had an uncomfortable premonition in her heart that was worrying her. “What are you saying?”
Suddenly: Kacha! The door of the relaxation room in the office opened up, and Ning Qing appeared at the frame of the doorway. She looked like she had just woken up. She was in a blur with sleep in her eyes as she said, “Shaoming.”
The trio all looked towards Ning Qing at the same time.
Ning Qing looked at Song Yajing. Her relaxed demeanour immediately became alert. Her body froze, and there was fear that flashed past her eyes. She politely bowed down and greeted her, “Aunt… No, Madam.”
Song Yajing: “…”
Lu Shaoming could not bear to see her afraid. He walked briskly over and put one arm around her small shoulders. He kissed her forehead like no one was around them and said in a gentle voice, “How come you didn’t sleep later? Aren’t you tired?”
As he spoke, his large hand went over her stomach. His voice was absolutely gentle as he said, “Although it has yet to be two months, has he made trouble for you?”
