Once her purchases were discovered by Qiao Shouyan and Qiao Gaoyang, her two uncles also started buying like crazy, and the three of them were buying up stock.

Su Yueya felt that this couldn't go on. Although her family wasn't short of money, there was no need for extravagance.

The main problem is that the little one grows up very quickly, and we have too many clothes from when he was little. It's really not cost-effective to replace them so often.

So, when Su Yueya was shopping at the department store that day, she found a store selling yarn and immediately had the idea of ​​knitting something for the little guy herself. She then used this as an excuse to order the three people who had bought it to stop buying it!

When she had nothing to do, Su Yueya would do handicrafts, knitting little socks, hats, vests and the like for the little guy, just to pass the time.

Qiao Xinruo initially found it interesting and said she wanted to knit as well. However, after trying for less than half an hour, she threw down the yarn and crochet hook, saying that she couldn't do this kind of work.

Suturing patients' wounds was no problem for her, but these needlework tasks stumped her.

"Who's thinking about me?" Su Yueya asked casually.

“Brother-in-law! Who else could it be?” Qiao Xinruo replied matter-of-factly.

Since Leng Yingying's inner thoughts indicated that her death was faked, then they would assume that Lu Zhengjun's death was faked and that he would return sooner or later.

"I'd rather he worry about me less and focus on what he's doing now," Su Yueya murmured.

Lu Zhengjun must be in dire straits right now. She can't save him or help him, so she can only pray silently for him, hoping that everything goes smoothly for him and that he will return soon.

This wasn't exactly a happy topic, and the two sisters tacitly avoided continuing.

"Xinruo, look at these little socks, aren't they cute?" Su Yueya had just finished knitting one sock and hadn't even made a pair yet, but she quickly showed it to her younger sister.

"So cute!" Qiao Xinruo took it. It was so soft to the touch. The more she looked at the little thing, the more she liked it, and she regretted that she was clumsy.

"Sis, if you have any extra yarn, could you knit me a pair too?" Qiao Xinruo said ingratiatingly, thinking that big socks and small socks should be about the same, if you can knit small ones, you can knit big ones, right?

“Okay, I’ll knit it for you,” Su Yueya agreed.

After knitting the other sock to make a pair, Su Yueya stood up, drank half a cup of spiritual spring water, and then wandered around the space, taking it as a stroll.

In addition to her daily exercise routine, she would also go to the scanner before bed for a check-up—because the scanner, unlike the instruments in ordinary hospitals, does not pose a risk to pregnant women, so Su Yueya could have the check-up with peace of mind.

Once a day, to ensure that you and your baby are healthy.

Another habit I've developed recently is writing a diary.

She didn't aim to write anything lengthy; she usually just recorded whatever came to mind, such as what happened each day, or what new and interesting experiences she had since becoming pregnant...

She originally intended to record everything, good or bad, but when she actually put pen to paper, she realized that thanks to the nourishing spring, she hadn't suffered much during her pregnancy.

However, only by having records can one truly feel the reality.

Flipping through the pages of my diary, it felt as if the events of each day were unfolding right before my eyes…

“When Zhengjun returns,” Su Yueya finished writing today’s part, put the diary away, and hugged it to her arms, “I’ll let him read my diary then. It’ll be a way of indirectly participating in the entire pregnancy, which will at least make up for some of his regrets…”

When Lu Zhengjun made the decision, she did not know that Su Yueya was already pregnant.

If he were to return and find that his children were all grown up, I wonder how he would feel...

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in Huadu, Lu Zhengjun, wearing a human skin mask and using the alias Su Cheng, finally managed to make contact with one of the target's trusted henchmen—Scarface—after a long period of laying instigations.

The ultimate target of this mission is Xu Mao, a man with immense power in Huadu, a deeply entrenched network of connections, and even local black-clad protectors.

Xu Mao's business operations were far-reaching, involving casinos, drugs, human trafficking, and more.

He does whatever is dirty and whatever brings quick money.

They have absolutely no bottom line.

It was impossible for the police to get close to Xu Mao or find evidence of his crimes in one fell swoop, so they asked the military for help and proposed to plant an undercover agent to lie in wait for Xu Mao.

However, Xu Mao is a very cautious person. He would never pick up a random cat or dog on the roadside, take it with him, and entrust it with important tasks. Therefore, the task is difficult and requires a long period of lying low, and may even come at a price.

Lu Zhengjun was also very troubled and frustrated when she learned about the early stages of the mission, feeling that she had no clue what to do.

He used the alias Su Cheng and spent nearly a month in an underground casino in Huadu before he managed to get some information.

He won't be able to see Xu Mao anytime soon.

But he had already found the key to Xu Mao and was trying to get close to him.

After Su Cheng was brought into the dark room of the underground casino, the person who led him there left.

In complete darkness, he could see nothing.

Thinking about what just happened...

Su Cheng knew that this casino was one of Xu Mao's businesses, and he also knew that as an ordinary gambler, he was not qualified to meet the big boss behind the scenes. So at first, he only gambled small amounts, relying on the few tricks he had temporarily learned when he changed his identity, which allowed him to break even.

Then he discovered that the casino was under Scarface's control.

By listening to people chat and extracting useful information from snippets of conversation, he discovered that Scarface might not only be in charge of the casino, but also doing a lot of things for Xu Mao.

Therefore, Su Cheng used the scar as a key to get close to Xu Mao.

The door to the dark room was opened from the outside, and a man with a half-scarred face appeared, smoking a cigarette. In the darkness, only that crimson glow was the only light.

"Turn on the lights," Scarface's henchman shouted.

The sudden light made Su Cheng instinctively raise his hand to shield his eyes.

"Damn it, are you trying to blind me?" Su Cheng cursed.

"Pretty cocky, huh?" Scarface laughed, seemingly unperturbed by Su Cheng's insults. "I heard it was you who won for seven days in a row?"

The man, who had been smiling, instantly changed his expression, spat out a puff of smoke onto the ground, crushed it out with his toe, and the last trace of warmth faded from his face as he interrogated Su Cheng.

"Who the hell gave you the guts to cheat in my casino?" Scarface asked.

Su Cheng remained completely calm, seemingly unaffected by the threat.

"Your casino should have surveillance cameras, right? We can check if someone is cheating just by looking at the footage. Why did you lead me to this dark room... What, are you trying to silence me?" Su Cheng retorted.

"So what if I silenced them?" Scarface's expression changed again, his threat becoming blatant. "Didn't you do any research before entering the casino?"
