Chapter 465: The Belly is Too Big
Wen Bilan started crying: “It’s all my fault. I didn’t manage Ruikang well, causing Yuyi to lose face and also causing the Lu Family to lose face. It’s all my fault. If I had been more alert, this wouldn’t have happened.”
Madam Lu indeed had a lot to complain about her, but seeing her suddenly apologizing made it hard for her to blame her further.
“Alright, alright, how can this be your fault? Lan Ruikang is to blame! Men can’t be let out of sight, they won’t live peacefully, instead they want affair and illegitimate children. He is simply disgusting!”
Even though Madam Lu was cursing Lan Ruikang, she was also cursing her own husband, Lu Mingzhen, in her heart.
After all, Lu Lingche, right in front of her, was the child of Lu Mingzhen and a vixen outside, which made her sick to her stomach back then.
It was only when she persistently tormented Lu Lingche that she felt a little balanced in her heart.
However, even to this day, she couldn’t fully let go, and so she continued to find ways to sabotage Lu Lingche, she wouldn’t let him have a comfortable or blissful life.
Lan Yuyi heard Madam Lu’s veiled criticism and knew that she was also cursing Lu Mingzhen.
However, besides Lu Mingzhen and Lan Ruikang, she was also scolding Lu Lingche who was openly present.
After all, Lu Lingche also fell into the category she mentioned, who instead of living peacefully, had found a ‘mistress’ and had an ‘illegitimate child’.”
Lan Yuyi carefully observed Lu Lingche’s expressions, but found he seemed to not care that Madam Lu was also criticizing him.
Did he not understand?
Or did he genuinely not care?
Wondering about these things, Lan Yuyi saw Lu Lingche heading out with his assistant.
She hurriedly stopped him: “Lingche, don’t leave yet!”
Lu Lingche turned around: “What else is it?”
“Well, I want to ask you, how far along are you and Miss Qiao’s cousin? You said last time that you wanted to marry her, and you were even thinking of letting me abort our child because of her. Is all that true?”
Lu Lingche’s gaze fell on her stomach.
Although she was covered with a thin blanket, the bulge of her belly was still quite prominent, revealing her pregnancy.
Her belly was so big that it appeared she was about to give birth.
Instead of answering her question, he asked, “How many months pregnant are you?”
This was the most sensitive topic, Madam Lu and Wen Bilan were instantly on edge, and Lan Yuyi was somewhat nervous too: “Seven months, what’s wrong? Lingche, do you still want me to abort? The doctor said that at this advanced stage of pregnancy, abortion is not possible. It could result in both the mother and baby dying.”
Lu Lingche’s brow furrowed slightly: “Seven months?”
He had seen pregnant women before.
There are quite a few female employees in the Corporation, many of them only start their maternity leave when they’re about to give birth.
So, he knew what women looked like when they’re pregnant.
But Lan Yuyi’s belly was definitely larger than others, so large that it didn’t look like she was seven months pregnant but rather ready to deliver.
Madam Lu was worried that he might discover the secret if he looked any further.
After all, Lan Yuyi’s belly was indeed too big because the baby was too well nourished, larger than normal babies, and also advanced in terms of months. Altogether it was simply too big!
She pushed Lu Lingche out, “Alright, there’s nothing more for you here. My boy, you’ve had a long day, hurry home and rest, don’t overwork yourself.”
Lu Lingche calmly responded, then walked away with his assistant.
Compared to its former bustle, the Lan’s Hospital today could be described as desolate.
Looking at the empty hospital, the assistant murmured, “President Lu, I fear Lan’s Hospital is finished.”
Lu Lingche replied indifferently, “Why, do you want it to be finished?”
“I don’t necessarily have strong feelings towards Lan’s Hospital, but it seems Miss Qiao does.”
Lu Lingche frowned slightly: “She doesn’t just have a slight interest in Lan’s hospital.”
She wanted Lan Yuyi dead.
