Chapter 267 - She is pregnant (1/2)
Lu Tongyan knew he couldn't be wrong. Aside from Yan Xue's pale complexion, she couldn't stand strong smells and as they ate, he realized that she avoided all the oily foods. When he passed her some just for a test, she politely rejected it and said that she was not feeling too well today. She was acting just as his late wife did when she was pregnant with Aotian and Shaoting.
As her future father-in-law, it would be too awkward to simply as her such a question. He could only step out and call Lu Shaoting.
The man arrived within the shortest time he could. ”Father, why did you call me? Is there something very urgent?” He was eating with Su Ling and was just about to kiss her when his father called. Obviously, he was in a foul mood.
Lu Tongyan was too cheerful to mind his annoyance. ”Shaoting, come here. Little Xue is here.”
Lu Shaoting's expression instantly turned bloodcurdling. ”What the hell is that woman doing here?”
Lu Tongyan glared sharply at him. ”Lu Shaoting, Don't be rude!”
Lu Shaoting was even more annoyed. His father had called him so urgently just for this? It had just been a few days. What had that woman done to win his father's favour?
Yan Xue saw that Lu Shaoting looked like he wanted to leave. She rushed up to him smiling like a pure innocent angel. ”Shaoting! You're home. You should join us for dinner.” She was completely acting like the host. It was as though she was the mistress of the house.
”Why are you here? Leave right now!” He was not sure what this woman had said to his Su Ling but knew that she was responsible for the latter's previous cold attitude towards him. He and Su Ling had just started getting closer. He couldn't allow this woman to ruin it.
Yan Xue did not leave and clung onto his arm instead. Lu Shaoting felt as though he had been touched by something extremely disgusting. He shoved her away violently.
Lu Tongyan felt his blood run ice cold. He held Yan Xue just before her body hit the table. ”Shaoting! Don't be too violent! She could be pregnant!” before his brain could process it, he blurted out in fear.
Yan Xue smiled evilly. It was initially getting difficult to break the news but Lu Tongyan had just done it for her. As expected, men from the Lu family were very attentive. He had found this out quite fast.
Despite hearing the big news, she saw that Lu Shaoting did not have any change in expression. Grabbing the opportunity, she smiled at him. ”Shaoting, I don't know how Uncle Lu found out but it's true. We are going to be parents soon. Anyway, that's not what I wanted to talk to you about.” While she spoke, she rubbed her belly with an innocent smile. Lu Shaoting found her nauseating.
He was not about to bother with her; he had more important things to do. She probably wasn't pregnant. Even if she was, it had nothing to do with him. He turned on his heel.
”Shaoting, I only wanted to tell you that you should stay away from that woman”
Yan Xue's main priority was to sow discord between the Lu Family and Su Ling. Even if she and Lu Shaoting got together, neither Lu Tongyan nor Lu Aotian would allow her into the family.
