Chapter 801 - 789: Joyful News
After the meeting, Lu Yuxuan stayed behind.
He had a few reform plans that Lu Jinxuan wanted to discuss with him. Doing so would be very helpful for solidifying his position.
Lu Yuxuan looked at his brother and couldn’t help but say, "Mr. President, has something good happened recently?"
"Hmm?" Lu Jinxuan raised an eyebrow, "Isn’t there something good? The entire nation knows I have good news."
"Pfft." Lu Yuxuan snickered, "Come on! That thing with Qin Mengshu, what’s so good about that? Look at you, smiling from the corners of your eyes and eyebrows, can you restrain yourself a little? What good news are you talking about that even I can’t know?"
Lu Jinxuan curved his lips, "Hmm...what else could it be about, other than your sister-in-law?"
This sister-in-law naturally referred to Yu Sangwan.
"Huh?" Lu Yuxuan frowned, feeling that something was off.
Lu Jinxuan was puzzled, "What’s with your reaction?"
"Hold on..." Lu Yuxuan rubbed his forehead, thinking for a moment, "Eldest sister-in-law is pregnant, did you know?"
"Hmm?" Lu Jinxuan froze, staring blankly at his younger brother.
Lu Yuxuan clapped his hands, "You really didn’t know! Why did no one tell you?"
"When did this happen?" Lu Jinxuan was extraordinarily excited, "How long has it been? Why couldn’t I tell at all?"
Lu Yuxuan was stumped by the question, scratching his head, "Not long, I think? As for why you couldn’t tell...why ask me?"
"Alright!" Lu Jinxuan interrupted his brother, "You’re really useless! Only telling me now!"
Lu Yuxuan was dumbfounded, what did this have to do with him? No wonder at the Thousand Lamps last time...something felt off, turns out this was the issue! Sister-in-law’s pregnancy had somehow been kept a secret from his brother!
’Clap’!
Lu Jinxuan closed the documents and stood up to put on his coat.
"Not done reading?"
Lu Jinxuan shook his head, "Not today, I have something to do."
Lu Yuxuan twitched his mouth, "You’re about to get married, where are you running off to all the time?"
But Lu Jinxuan ignored him and walked out first.
Lu Jinxuan changed clothes and drove himself to the Fu Family.
In the car, he called Yu Sangwan.
"Taotao."
"Hmm." Yu Sangwan had just woken up, her voice lazy, "What is it?"
"Still sleeping?" Lu Jinxuan smiled lightly, "It’s already this late?"
"So annoying." Yu Sangwan sulked, "Picking a talk when there’s nothing to say, I’m sleepy...what is it?"
Lu Jinxuan held back his laughter, thinking to himself, drowsiness...that’s a symptom of pregnancy, right? He had really been careless not to notice until now.
"Cough cough." Clearing his throat, Lu Jinxuan said, "I’ve been really busy lately, haven’t visited you...are you mad? Why are you speaking so harshly?"
Yu Sangwan paused, "Oh, not mad...if you’re busy then don’t come, who’s in need?"
Even though she said she wasn’t in need, it was obvious she was disappointed.
Lu Jinxuan laughed, "Then I’ll hang up now, need to get busy."
"Oh."
After hanging up, Yu Sangwan was completely awake. What was with this person? Calling just to tell her...that he’s busy? Then he can just be busy, why disturb her sleep?
Being woken up, she couldn’t fall back asleep.
Checking the time, Yu Sangwan decided to get up and go downstairs.
Downstairs, Tu Shanni was moving things inside with the help of the butler.
"Slow down...put them all on the kitchen balcony." Tu Shanni instructed the servants.
Yu Sangwan walked over, "Mom, what did you buy? You bought so much!"
"What?" Tu Shanni turned to look at her daughter, "I bought it? Wasn’t it you who bought it? I was just wondering why there was so much?"
The butler whispered, "Seems like it wasn’t bought..."
He tugged on a box and pointed, "It says ’special supply’ on it."
In the Holy City, the only one who can afford special supplies is...Guan Chao.
"Hmm?" Yu Sangwan naturally understood, and immediately smiled, "I understand now, just put them away for now! If someone wants to give us something, then just accept it."
"Yes..." The butler chuckled, "There’s just so much, they even said...they’ll deliver fresh ones every day from now on."
Yu Sangwan pouted, "Hmm, alright."
Tu Shanni looked at her daughter, "Is it him?"
"Hmm." Yu Sangwan nodded.
"Alas..." Tu Shanni shook her head and sighed, "I don’t know what you two are up to? Whatever, as long as you’re happy."
The kitchen was just about ready when someone came in through the entryway.
The butler hurried in, "Miss, I’ve sent the servants away...the curtains are also drawn."
Yu Sangwan was slightly startled, and then saw Lu Jinxuan come in.
They stood there, smiling knowingly at each other.
"Pfft." Yu Sangwan brightened up, "Didn’t you say you were busy? Busy like crazy, huh!"
"Hmm." Lu Jinxuan came over, placing his hand on her abdomen, "Busy coming to see my daughter."
"..." Yu Sangwan was stunned, "You..."
Lu Jinxuan lowered his head and nudged her nose, "Daring to keep it from me, you’ve got some guts!"
"Uh, no." Yu Sangwan smiled, "I just never found the right opportunity, did I? You kept making me worry and keeping me upset."
"Hmm?" Lu Jinxuan raised an eyebrow, squinting at her.
"Hehe." Yu Sangwan couldn’t help but break into laughter, "Alright, now you know, don’t you? You just said daughter? How do you know it’s a daughter?"
Lu Jinxuan smiled, "I want a daughter, so I feel like she’s a daughter!"
"Pfft!" Yu Sangwan scoffed, "So arrogant!"
Just then, her stomach growled.
Lu Jinxuan frowned, "So hungry and still not eating? Come on, let’s go eat."
He pulled Yu Sangwan, even more eagerly than she was.
Yu Sangwan chuckled, "I see, this is probably really a daughter! When I was pregnant with Little Bun, you didn’t want him...you’re so nervous this time, it’s gotta be your lover from a past life, tsk tsk...so nervous, humph!"
Lu Jinxuan laughed, helping her sit down.
"What the doctor said wasn’t reliable! Saying you have difficulty getting pregnant, and now we’re having a second one. Keep it up, you’re still young, we can have five or six kids before you’re forty."
"Hmm? Five or six?"
Yu Sangwan frowned, pinching his cheek, "Do you think I’m a pig?"
Lu Jinxuan didn’t say anything, placing the food in front of her, "Come on, Pig Mama time to eat."
"Humph!" Yu Sangwan pouted.
Lu Jinxuan stifled his laughter, "Pig Papa is feeding, not eating?"
"Hmm?" Yu Sangwan pursed her lips, "Pfft..."
She burst into laughter.
"Good, eat up."
"Hmm."
Lu Jinxuan was content, wiping her mouth, he leaned in to whisper, "I’m especially happy today, I won’t leave tonight...I’ll stay with you and the baby."
"...Oh." Yu Sangwan knew persuading him was useless, so she simply went along with him.
Unexpectedly, Lu Jinxuan took it a step further.
Adding, "That said, gotta greet my little lover too!"
Yu Sangwan glared, shameless! On Gu Xiaoning’s exam day, Le Zhengsheng took time off.
He had to negotiate with the doctor and head nurse for a long time.
Luckily, Gu Xiaoning’s exam location wasn’t far from the hospital.
By the time Le Zhengsheng arrived, the exam wasn’t over, and the exam hall was closed, not allowing anyone inside.
