Continuing from last time, I went to the Corean family’s castle. I didn’t see Uncle Joseph, but I did see Song Fei. I learned some news that was neither good nor bad. It was a coincidence that I came to Malaysia, and it happened that the people from the second house were also hiding here. What should I do?
It was impossible to go back to China, so I had to stay here and worry about the possibility of encountering the above situation.
But as the days passed, his belly gradually bulged, and except for that time, I had no news of my second uncle or my brother. I also called the witness to come and investigate carefully at the place where he saw the people, but there was no trace of them. I was afraid that he had really seen them wrong. I slowly gave up this slim hope. Only Ji Bing was still very determined. He led his men to circle around the Gao Mansion day and night. I wanted to laugh, and occasionally I would pull him and say: The mansion was originally in the suburbs, and no one cared about it. He practices every day, are you sure he is not here to "provoke" people?
Ji Peng ignored me and continued to act according to his ideas. I didn't take it seriously until one day a month later, the Hou family came to ask the Lu family for my medical report. Lu Zeyun accidentally filled in a wrong number and came to the mansion privately to beat his chest and stamp his feet to apologize, but it was too late. Old Hou noticed it and kept calling me to ask why the hormones in my body increased so much. Could it be that my life has entered its third spring? No, this is not right. The second spring is because the first spring died, so what about the third spring? The second spring is still alive and well?
I couldn't help laughing when I heard this, and put down the porridge I had no appetite for. "When you meet love, you secrete dopamine. I secrete more oxytocin. I have to thank you for not writing this part too clearly. Otherwise, it would be obvious at a glance, and my son would be doomed."
Lu Zeyun waved his hand and sat down next to my bed: "Then I have made a mistake, you tell me what to do."
I raised my eyebrows: "Wow, you seem to be quite reasonable?"
Lu Zeyun shook his head in grief and indignation. "It's hard for me to make such a mistake. There are so many patients in the hospital. I can't see you every day, right? When I was changing your data two nights ago, my eyes were blurry and my brain was dizzy. It's normal to miss a string of numbers. Isn't it more important to think of a solution to the problem first? You can settle the score with me another day. If you don't answer the phone, Lao Hou will find trouble for me every day, asking me if you cheated on me, afraid that Gao Xinci will KO you and your lover!"
"Who is like him? Aunt Wen Su has been checking up on him recently. He can't find a pretty girl so he makes up a rumor about me. It's really interesting." I sighed. I had expected this point. It would be tiring to force Lu Zeyun, who looks very serious, to act in such a scene. So I forgave him generously: "Then bring me that plate of fruit. I'll think of a solution."
Lu Zeyun frowned when he saw it: "I've told you to eat less sweets, your blood sugar is getting higher and higher. If you really have any problems, Gao Xinci will release a Tibetan mastiff to bite me, right?"
I shrugged. "That's perfect. I'm here to get revenge. Who told you to reveal my data to Lao Hou?"
Dean Lu glared and stood up, and the words of excuse came to his lips: "I..."
"My indicators are wrong again, and the risk factor has increased. If you don't want Lao Hou to hold you responsible in the future, just tell me. Why do you have to do this? So that when he questions you in the future, you can say, 'Yeah, I reminded you, but you didn't see it, right?' I smiled and stared at Lu Zeyun, who was sweating and sitting down with a pursed mouth, looking aggrieved. I sighed, "Oh, you are so unreliable."
"I'm just making up an excuse for myself. It's hard to do business without a backup plan. You know me. I'm all about playing it safe. As long as you can handle this time, I promise I won't cheat you again!" Lu Zeyun raised three fingers in a daze. Seeing my sneer, he stepped forward and held my hand that was about to eat strawberries. "Believe me, although we haven't known each other for a long time and don't meet often and don't seem to understand each other, you are really my best friend. I won't stab a friend twice. One is enough."
I rolled my eyes and sneered, and I broke free with my hand and slapped him on the wrist: "Just tell me what's wrong with me."
"The problem is not that bad, everything is going as planned."
"Then you're cheating me?"
"I'm telling you that this is the last time you'll regret it. Look at your belly. When you were pregnant with your daughter, neither of them was this big. If you let it grow to seven months, your belly will be covered with stretch marks..."
I have been saying this for two months and my ears are callused. I feel confused as I keep listening to it. Although I understand that so many doctors are giving such serious warnings just to save my life, and I also realize that the time I am awake every day is getting shorter and shorter, I just don't feel depressed at all. I am just happy that An An is about to be born. I only have my child in my eyes and heart, so I can only sneer and stretch.
"As a mother, I'm not afraid of death, so why should I be afraid of a few stretch marks?"
Lu Zeyun was stunned for a moment, and finally sighed: "Okay, then you should eat less sweets. I will ask the nutritionist to modify your diet as appropriate. If I can raise you back, the child may also be more restrained. You should first think about how to deal with Lao Hou."
I laughed it off and lifted the unnecessary bangs on my forehead: "He is so bad, do I need a reason to avoid him? Just tell him to find me if he has something to do, and I will just turn off my phone."
"Hehe, I'm afraid it's not that easy."
"What do you mean?"
Lu Zeyun frowned as he looked at his phone, then showed it to me with a disdainful remark: "In Linjiang, we received a notice from above that the government will conduct a thorough inspection, but I guess it's not aimed at us, but at you."
My heart choked. The whole message was really horrifying. It seemed that Lao Hou didn't value my life very much. He even brought his uncle out to force me to show up just because of a wrong number.
Inspections are not uncommon, they happened often in the past, and the leaders of each family would just stand up and deal with it honestly. But this time the statement was very serious, saying that some serious conspiracy had been discovered, and they were going to target the families above us in particular. The absence of the person in charge at this time was a problem. The leader of the team that came from Yingjing changed his name from the one who came often before. Coincidentally, his surname was also Hou, and I knew him.
"Your death would affect his plans. I guess maybe... that's the reason. Anyway, I don't believe he did this because he loves you." Lu Zeyun said, taking back his phone with a smile.
Gao Xinci, Cheng Cheng Lulu and Shao Qin, who suddenly came in at this time, also confirmed that the news was not exaggerated. They all had worries in their eyes. Gao Xinci calmed down first, suppressed his emotions and sat down beside the bed: "Shishi, we may have to go back. Something happened in Linjiang."
Lu Zeyun continued: "Well, we were just talking about this."
Lulu was a little surprised: "You know? Oh, these people are full of trouble. Even I, a local, don't know that there are troublemakers in Linjiang. Where did you get this information? It's hard for people to take care of their pregnancies..."
"Don't talk nonsense. Let them check if they want. It's not the first time." Cheng Cheng hurriedly stopped her, lowering her voice and looking around at home. She closed the bedroom door before continuing: "Sister, what are your plans? Are you going back with us? But your body doesn't seem to be suitable."
“Hey, she can’t take a plane. The journey is more than ten hours. If there is any trouble in the sky, it will be no joke.” Lu Zeyun stretched out his hand and made a pause gesture.
I thought for a moment and then felt relieved. I took Gao Xinci's hand and squeezed his palm. "You guys go. Anyway, I only have Hua Qiong. He is basically under Ke Yili's control. They can't trace him back to me. Cheng Cheng can just keep an eye on him. Besides, Zhizhi is also in Linjiang. If anyone asks about it, I can just say that I am recuperating in Malaysia and can't move. Nothing will happen."
Cheng Cheng suddenly became worried, with a frown on her face: "It will take at least half a year to investigate. I'm afraid if we all leave at once, there will be no one to take care of you in Malaysia."
I don't need to be perfunctory about this. Uncle Shao, who was at the end of the crowd, was suddenly enlightened. He looked himself up and down, and even patted and hit himself to attract everyone's attention before he said in a daze: "No, I'm not invisible. Why can't you see me?"
I laughed out loud. "Look, Uncle Shao is still here, and Uncle Ji will be back in two days. It's okay. This is not my first time giving birth, so I don't need so many people to take care of me. Checkups are more important. Don't take it lightly. Many messages other than the statement are warnings. If the so-called conspiracy really happens to someone in your family, it will be a big trouble. Xin Ci, Cheng Cheng, especially our two families. The elders in Lulu's family are basically hired from outside, and the people in our two families who are most likely to cause trouble are relatives."
"If there really is someone who dares to stab me behind my back, I will take care of him before the authorities find him." Cheng Cheng was immediately disgusted and clenched his fists.
"It's better to be careful." I glanced at Lu Zeyun, and my friend immediately understood and stood up.
"Don't stay in the mansion. After all, it's a place where everyone can see it. It's not safe. Why don't you move to my place? I have a villa in Fenghai Mountain and I have all the staff. You can just stay at home until you give birth. As for Lingling and Yunyun, don't pick them up for now. I will take care of them for you. When the storm is over, we will come to pick you up together." Lu Zeyun said as he looked around at everyone. It seemed that everyone thought this was a good idea.
After a long time, Gao Xinci took the lead in responding: "This is the only way, Shishi, I'm sorry to have troubled you." He leaned over and touched my forehead.
"There is no time to lose. Go ahead. The government officials will be here the day after tomorrow. I will also pack up and move in this afternoon." I patted Gao Xingci's shoulder gently.
Cheng Cheng also wanted to join in the fun, and after struggling for a long time, he finally spoke: "Sister, Feng Shizhi wants to handle the company affairs on your behalf, so I'll send Shen Qilin to accompany you." After that, the little guy came over to hug me pitifully, rubbing against me hard before letting go: "I'll come back to pick you up as soon as the matter is resolved."
I smiled and scraped his nose. "Okay, whatever you want. Don't worry about it when you go back. You're the only one left at home. Take care of it. If you have any doubts, tell your brother-in-law. Take good care of your brothers and sisters, and look after your niece. And most importantly, your child is getting older and older. Lulu will inevitably be tired in the later period. You worry about everything before her. Do you understand?"
Lulu also put on a bitter face as she listened, holding her belly and crying, she came over to me, our two bellies pressed against each other and we couldn't even stand close to each other. She stood one meter away and worried: "I was thinking that our birth months are about the same, and I want to give birth at the same time and in the same delivery room as you. I'm scared if you're not by my side--"
I nodded firmly and patted her shoulder with great difficulty: "Don't worry, you have arranged a caesarean section. You will be unconscious after the injection. There is no chance to be scared."
"You are so bad." Lulu commented with a stern face.
The room was filled with laughter. After the laughter stopped, Cheng Cheng asked people to prepare the luggage for the return trip, Lu Zeyun arranged my moving, and Gao Xinci took this opportunity to give me a few final instructions and say goodbye to An An. An hour later, the mansion was empty. The sudden farewell made people feel depressed.
It’s true, the troubles that Lao Hou caused me were always the most painful. Even if he really didn’t mean it this time, I will remember this scene for the rest of my life. After I finally recovered, I pulled myself together, changed my clothes, got in the car with the help of Uncle Shao, and turned all the way to Haisong Mansion in the mountains, a beautiful place full of greenery and vitality.
I walked around and saw lush greenery everywhere. I felt better when I heard the sound of waves coming from the cliff. The Lu family has been practicing medicine for many years and can be said to be the most enjoyable family in Malaysia. Their family motto is "happiness is good medicine". Now I have experienced it. The servants at home are busy "setting up camp". The noise makes people feel the bustle of life. If there is any flaw, it is that the first meal was a bit bumpy.
Uncle Shao saw that the time was up and was about to help me go back to eat, but the Lu family's servant came running out in a hurry and said that Haisong Mansion had been uninhabited all year round. It had been inspected before and all was fine, but they had forgotten to buy the utensils for eating. They had already asked someone to buy them, but the mansion was on the mountain and it would take time to go back and forth. We were all hungry and it was not a good idea to just wait like that, so they had to invite us to a holiday estate at the foot of the mountain to have this meal first. They were really sorry.
Uncle Shao and I smiled bitterly at each other. Since they had said so, we were guests and it was not easy to embarrass them. We consoled them that mistakes were inevitable in a hurry. Then we drove down the mountain and arrived at the manor. Looking inside and outside, it was no different from Haisong Mansion. We estimated that the people who came here were either rich or noble. We sat down quietly to eat, hoping to attract as little attention as possible, especially me. For this reason, Uncle Shao even asked the store to move a screen in front of my table. I smiled bitterly and asked him what the difference was between this and trying to cover one's ears and steal a bell. I wasn't that... embarrassed to see people!
"It seems so. We're already abroad and you don't go out often, so who would recognize you? Forget it..." Uncle Shao patted his head and asked someone to move the barrier away. He sat down with a sweat on his head and sighed, "With Ji Bing away, I'm totally confused. Normally, I can stand a confrontation or a fight, but this time my mission is to take care of you and the baby in your belly. I'm a rough man, how could I have done such a thing? It's just that you're holding on, and the baby is sensible. Look at how big my belly is, the baby will definitely be a strong and smart one!"
"Well, who knows..." I rubbed my belly, and a bit of maternal love really glowed in my heart. I thought that if I could make my son's physique healthier after my rebirth, it would be great. He was tall but too thin in his last life. Now that he has learned how to absorb food, can he eat until he becomes a little fat man in one go?
Oh, too fat is not good either, I mean just normal level, um, like his dad.
Uncle Shao handed the tableware to me after a while. I came back to my senses and looked up to see him taking a piece of paper and cleaning himself up. "You eat first. This restaurant cooks slowly. I heard that you have to make a reservation two hours in advance. These two dishes were given to us by another customer who heard that there was a pregnant woman."
"I'm not that hungry, but since other people meant it well, did I thank them?" I asked, sitting up straight while holding my stomach.
Unfortunately, Shao Qin waved his hands and said, "No, I didn't even see him. I don't know who the waiter brought me the message from. He did good deeds without leaving his name. Hey, how about I ask again..."
I turned my head to follow Uncle Shao's gaze, and a waiter came towards me and brought me a glass of warm water. Uncle Shao was about to speak, but before he could utter a word, the so-called "good guy" jumped out from behind the emerald curtain next door, straightened his clothes, and took some money out of his pocket to tip the waiter over there, and said without even looking at us: "You're welcome, we're all from the same hometown."
Uncle Shao and I looked back. Neither of us had ever thought that it would be such a coincidence to run into the person we had been thinking about day and night but couldn't see here. We really are from the same hometown, and Song Fei's information was correct.
It's He Qingyun...
