Lu Huai’an returned home later than usual today. Although he declined the dinner party, it was already dark by the time the meeting ended.
The first thing he did upon entering the door was to routinely ask the servant about Lin Chu’s activities for the day.
"Madam went out in the morning, she said she was going to see a friend and came back in the afternoon. She has already had dinner, but she didn’t eat much. She should be in the bedroom now; she hadn’t slept yet when I just delivered her milk."
Lin Chu went to the Xu Family, which Lu Huai’an was aware of.
As long as she stepped out of the door, her whereabouts would be reported to him regularly. Call it perverse or crazy, but only by knowing exactly where she is at all times can he feel at ease.
He said lightly, "Mm, I see."
Lu Huai’an, with a scent of tobacco, headed to the bedroom after changing clothes in the cloakroom.
Opening the door, he saw the woman sitting on the sofa with a cold expression, and the milk on the table beside her was untouched, still full.
Lu Huai’an walked over, sat down on the sofa as well, and pulled her into his arms.
The fragrant scent lingered at the tip of his nose, dispelling his fatigue. He couldn’t help but want to be close to her, but she turned her head away, and the kiss landed on her cheek.
Lu Huai’an didn’t get angry. He grasped the woman’s chin, turning her proud head back. Though his actions were assertive, they were gentle.
He asked with a low laugh, "Just because I came back an hour late, you’re upset?"
Lin Chu dodged the man’s questions for the second time, expressionless, her voice cold, "Lu Huai’an, how can you be so despicable?"
Lu Huai’an raised his eyebrows nonchalantly, appearing quite interested, "How am I despicable?"
She’s pregnant, so he couldn’t take her to the company anymore, unable to keep an eye on her 24/7.
Those bodyguards...
Even knowing she doesn’t like them, he wouldn’t let Jiang Yichen have a second chance to take her away.
Lin Chu didn’t expect him to admit it right away and directly threw the medicine bottle she was holding at the man’s side, coldly asking, "Then tell me, what’s in this?"
Lu Huai’an instinctively caught what the woman threw over. After seeing it clearly, his eyes slightly changed.
She knew.
Every time Lin Chu took her medicine afterward, she never hid it and basically did it in front of Lu Huai’an. Though he didn’t stop her, the darkness deep within his black eyes was intensely deep.
The bottle originally contained birth control pills, but they had been replaced.
The same bottle, and the color and size of the pills inside were very similar, but they were not birth control pills—they were vitamins from a foreign brand. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
If Xu Qiubai hadn’t reminded Lin Chu today, if the pregnancy test hadn’t shown two lines, Lin Chu would never have suspected anything.
Lu Huai’an kept a straight face and calmly replied, "They’re vitamins, good for your health."
Lin Chu laughed in anger.
She held her forehead, mocking him, "I really didn’t expect you to do something like this. Lu Huai’an, did you know I was pregnant long ago?"
No wonder things have been unusual these days. ƒreewebɳovel.com
Lu Huai’an casually put the medicine bottle aside, then spread his arms and pulled the angry little woman into his embrace. Perhaps due to the presence of the little life in her belly, her struggles weren’t too hard to handle.
Holding her hand to his lips, he kissed it, his deep voice uncharacteristically gentle, "Qi Ming is lonely by himself. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a daughter accompany him?"
He thought if they had a child, it might dissolve the wall in her heart.
Compared to a boy, he selfishly wanted a daughter, someone as beautiful and exquisite as her.
Lin Chu couldn’t break free, forced to stay in his arms. But she didn’t let him off easily, biting him hard on the neck.
"Mr. Lu’s methods are becoming increasingly proficient. I was like a fool, kept in the dark by you, knowing nothing, and I almost..."
That day, that day, she even jumped into the swimming pool. If anything had happened, she would have personally killed her own child.
The clear imprint of teeth seeped faintly with blood. Lu Huai’an seemed to feel no pain; there was even a hint of a smile on his brow. If one looked closely, they might detect the bitterness beneath the smile.
His warm hand rested on the woman’s abdomen, gently stroking.
"I always felt you might leave, so I wanted to find an excuse to tie you down."
Marriage or children, it was all because... because he wanted to keep her.
Lu Huai’an’s words left Lin Chu stunned. All resistance and struggle ceased at that moment, her heart even skipped a beat.
