Song Yi looked into Su Qing’s eyes, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes. He said gently, “No matter what, we are still their seniors. They are already pregnant with a second child, so we can’t start falling behind now, right?”
Su Qing was speechless. ‘I, I, I… I actually have nothing to say in reply!’
Unable to refute her husband, Su Qing could only shift her anger onto Mu Tingfeng. If it wasn’t for this brat’s blabbering, would she have had to suffer such a tragedy?! This was great. This husband of hers was really considering having a second child. If she was pregnant or something, wouldn’t she be the one suffering, and not him?!
Mu Tingfeng was completely unaware of Su Qing’s angry glare. She brought this upon herself, teasing his wife like that.
The facts proved that President Mu was not only easily jealous, but also overprotective! Especially when Zhao Youlin was involved, he was even more calculative.
Seeing that Su Qing had been shot down by Mu Tingfeng’s words, Zhao Youlin felt a little smug. She looked at Su Qing with a faint smile and echoed, “That’s right, cousin. No matter what, you and brother-in-law are still a few years older than Tingfeng and me. Tingfeng and I have already had our first child. Dudu is only about a year old. Now that I’m pregnant again, don’t lag too far behind!”
Su Qing’s face darkened. She angrily rolled her eyes at Zhao Youlin and thought to herself, it’s not that the two of us are too slow. It’s clear that the two of you are too fast! Why don’t you take a look at how old you are before you give birth to Joy? Aren’t you tired of love?!
Su Qing did not succeed in teasing Zhao Youlin and instead dug a hole for herself. She was extremely depressed. Just as she was at a loss, she heard a commotion behind her. Zhao Youlin’s smile suddenly disappeared.
Su Qing was stunned. She followed Zhao Youlin’s line of sight and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong?”
Zhao Youlin looked at the man who was slowly walking towards the crowd, surrounded by the crowd. This man… Why is he here again?
Zhao Youlin’s question was also what the elders of the Su family wanted to ask, but they did not have the energy to probe into this question.
The moment they saw the man walking over, Jiang Wenfang and Su Liqiang quickly reacted. They looked at each other and hurried to the man.
“Brother Lu, why are you free today? Quick, quick, sit here, sit here.” Jiang Wenfang had a bright smile on her face. She warmly guided Lu Xiangtian and sat down. If it were not for the fact that Zhao Youlin had been specifically told to stay away from Lu Xiangtian, she might have thought that the Su family and Lu Xiangtian were very close!
Lu Xiangtian smiled and pulled Lu Shu over to Jiang Wenfang’s side. They sat at the same table together, giving them enough courtesy. Unfortunately, the two of them were not exactly pleased to see him.
“Today is Xiao Qi’s child’s full moon gift. I’ve watched Xiao Qi grow up. How can I not come for her child’s full moon gift? Also…” Lu Xiangtian said with a faint smile as he glanced at Lu Shu, who was sitting next to him, he said in a low voice, “Xiao Qi is so lucky. Twins. A boy and a girl. Shu’er isn’t as lucky as her. We’ve been married for almost a year now, but there’s still no news from her. As her father, I’m a little anxious, so I thought of bringing her over to take a look. I want to see if I can bask in Xiao Qi’s happiness and have a grandchild as soon as possible. You don’t mind it, right?”
Lu Shu was taken aback. She had not expected Lu Xiangtian to insist on her attending someone else’s children’s full-moon ceremony for such a reason.
She could not help but lower her head. In the eyes of others, she appeared embarrassed.
The truth was when Lu Shu lowered her head, her entire face turned a little hideous. It was true that she and Li Yan had been married for more than a year, but… the number of times the two of them had sex could be counted on one hand. Unless she acted very impatiently or kept begging, that person would only force himself through the arduous task… Otherwise… that person would never take the initiative to suggest that they do what a husband and wife should do and fulfill their obligations as husband and wife.
They had been married for so long, and most of the time, they had just covered themselves with the blanket and chatted. Under such circumstances, it would be a miracle if she could easily get pregnant.
Before they got married, Lu Shu knew that Li Yan did not love her, and that he was hiding that woman in his heart. However, Lu Shu was confident that Li Yan would definitely fall in love with her over time. Moreover, that woman was already dead. One day, Li Yan would forget about her and turn to her. Even so, Lu Shu’s patience was almost completely worn out by the end of the first year.
Of course, Lu Xiangtian did not know all this. If he did, Li Yan would probably have sent someone to stab him and throw him into the river to feed the fishes. It was precisely because he did not know that such a thing would happen today.
Jiang Wenfang and Lu Xiangtian were also stunned when they heard Lu Xiangtian’s words. They stared at Lu Shu and smiled. “Brother Lu’s daughter is already married? I really didn’t know. Since she’s married, why didn’t you bring your son-in-law over before? Are you afraid that we’ll eat him?”
When Lu Xiangtian heard Jiang Wenfang mention Li Yan, the smile on his face faded a little. Although it was only a little, Jiang Wenfang still noticed it.
Jiang Wenfang’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Lu Xiangtian’s son-in-law was also something that couldn’t be mentioned? But she shouldn’t have heard him mention it just now… Could it be that Lu Xiangtian didn’t really like this son-in-law?
Jiang Wenfang had many questions, but she heard Lu Xiangtian reply, “That child is quite busy with work, and he’s not from our circle. I’m afraid of scaring him.”
Busy with work? What kind of work could be busier than Lu Xiangtian’s? Jiang Wenfang silently ridiculed him in her heart, but she didn’t show it on her face. She could sense that Lu Xiangtian wasn’t very willing to mention his son-in-law… She smiled and changed the topic, “I see. Since you are here to see the twins, I’ll go and ask Xiao Qi to bring the children down for you to see.”
Jiang Wenfang was about to get up as she spoke, but was stopped by Lu Xiangtian, “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. Are they upstairs now? It’s not too late to wait until they’re ready to take visitors.”
Jiang Wenfang’s smile froze, but she quickly recovered. She sat back down and said, “That’s fine.”
Lu Xiangtian smiled and scanned the entire hall of the Su family. When he saw a few people sitting in the corner, his eyes flashed. He turned to Jiang Wenfang and asked, “The Mu family is also here?”
