As the two were chatting and laughing, a sharp voice came from the door.

"I want to try on that skirt she has."

Lu Anning and Ding Wan turned around at the same time, only to see Lu Yunxi walking towards them with her head held high, followed by the Gu family's maid.

Lu Anning's eyes fell on the shopping bag in the maid's hand. The logo of a well-known international maternal and infant brand was a bit eye-catching. At first glance, the bag seemed to contain small yellow and blue clothes.

Ding Wan's teasing voice came from my ears: "This woman, she must have walked into the wrong store!"

The two ignored Lu Yunxi and continued with the previous topic. Lu Yunxi's face immediately darkened.

She had just come back from her prenatal checkup and was happily preparing some things for her baby when she unexpectedly saw Lu Anning and Ding Wan. She had no idea when Lu Anning and Miss Ding became close enough to go shopping together.

She must have known that Ding Wan was going to marry Gu Yue, so she was anxious to win over her future sister-in-law and came specially to show her courtesy.

As for Ding Wan, she was just a defeated opponent of hers. Even if she married Gu Yue, she might not be able to surpass her in the Gu family in the future.

After all, she was the only one in the Gu family who was pregnant. As long as the child was there, she would not have to worry about not having a say in the Gu family in the future.

Thinking of this, she raised the corners of her mouth and stepped forward to grab the black strapless dress in their hands.

"Didn't you hear me? I just said, I want this skirt."

Ding Wan seemed to have heard some particularly funny joke, and her eyes fell on her slightly bulging belly.

Ever since Lu Yunxi became pregnant, she'd been eating without restraint. She'd gained a lot of weight, and her waist was barely discernible. She couldn't even fit into a regular-sized skirt, let alone this incredibly slim-waisted tube top.

"The mother and baby section is upstairs, turn left when you go out, you're welcome."

Ding Wan smiled slightly and pulled her skirt back with force, completely ignoring the ugly expression on Lu Yunxi's face.

"Who are you mocking? Even if I'm pregnant, I can still fit into the clothes here. I want it if I say so, Ding Wan. Don't think you can ride on my head just because you're engaged to Gu Yue. Believe it or not, I just need one call from you and you'll have to hand over this dress to me."

Ding Wan listened and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What nonsense are you talking about! Don't you know what your status is in the Gu family? Ningning, to be precise, this woman is not even qualified to talk about status in the Gu family! I just wanted to borrow your womb to bear a child, and you actually pretended to be so!"

Lu Yunxi gritted her teeth and snorted coldly.

"That was in the past. It's different now. Do you know what's in my belly? He will be the eldest grandson of the Gu family when he is born. Ding Wan, if I were you, I would have been anxious and jumping up and down. It's useless for you to marry Gu Yue. The eldest grandson is in my belly. From now on, no matter how powerful you are, you have to listen to me."

Ding Wan said disdainfully: "Once the baby is born, you will have nothing to do with it. What are you daydreaming about? Get out of here! Don't be an eyesore here."

Lu Anning watched them arguing and didn't want to interrupt.

Lu Yunxi is a pregnant woman after all. If something goes wrong and the child is hurt, it will be her sin, but Lu Yunxi deliberately makes trouble for her.

"Lu An Ning told you, didn't she? Humph! How can she, a married daughter, still care about the affairs of the Gu family? It's uncertain what will happen in the end. I'm still staying in the Gu family now. If you want to drive me away after having a child, it won't be that easy. Lu An Ning, I won't let you succeed."

Lu Anning frowned: "You're done? You're done, why don't you just get out of here! Or have you forgotten my warning to you?"

As she spoke, she walked towards Lu Yunxi, her cold eyes falling on Lu Yunxi's stomach. Lu Yunxi suddenly felt a chill on her back, subconsciously covered her stomach, and took several steps back, her alarm bells ringing.

"Don't even think about touching my child."

In her haste, Lu Yunxi, who was backing away, bumped into a guest coming out of the VIP room and was about to fall. The guest quickly pulled her back. Lu Yunxi was startled and gasped, clutching her stomach. It took her a while to come to her senses.

"Girl, are you okay? You're pregnant, so you should be careful next time. It's better not to wear these high heels."

The woman's tone was gentle, and Lu Anning felt relieved just looking at her back. He was just about to remind Lu Yunxi to go back quickly.

Who would have thought that Lu Yunxi would suddenly attack the other party.

She shook off the man's hand and shouted, "You're walking blind! Can't you see someone is here? You hurt me, and you can't afford to pay me back even if you break your bank, yet you still dare to blame it on me being careless. What's it to you if I wear high heels? Who cares about your status? How dare you lecture me? You bumped into me, and my stomach is really upset now. You might have hurt the baby. Pay me!"

No one expected that Lu Yunxi would turn the tables and even blackmail others.

"You don't even know what shabby brand you're wearing. You've never seen it before, yet you're pretending to be rich! If you don't want to pay, that's fine. Now, kneel down and kowtow to me and apologize, and I'll consider forgiving you."

The man smiled awkwardly: "Let me kneel down and apologize?"

Lu Yunxi sneered: "I asked you to kneel down and apologize because I was in a good mood. Do you know? The child I am pregnant with is the eldest grandson of the Gu family in Kyoto. If anything happens to him, even your life cannot compensate for it."

"Gu family?"

A cold laugh echoed in the store: "No wonder!"

Lu Anning frowned slightly. The other party's tone seemed to indicate that he did not have a very good impression of the Gu family.

Seeing that she was not getting the attention she deserved, Lu Yunxi was furious and was about to step forward to attack. However, before her hand touched the other person, she was blocked by Lu An Ning.

Lu Yunxi's hand in mid-air was forced to stop and he couldn't break free for a while.

Lu Anning's cold voice was resounding, and every word he spoke was a warning to Lu Yunxi.

"Lu Yunxi, don't rely on the child to abuse your power by borrowing the reputation of the Gu family. You are not a member of the Gu family yet."
