Lin Xiaoxiao and Qin Yushen's emotions were like a rollercoaster ride, rising and falling repeatedly.

"What does Song Shaohua do again?" Lin Xiaoxiao asked Qin Yushen.

Qin Yushen: "Speculation and profiteering."

Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, gaining a deeper understanding of Luo Qingming's audacity.

If caught, the consequences range from confiscation of property to labor reform or even criminal punishment.

This kid is a master of keeping quiet and getting things done.

No wonder he leaves early and returns late every day, like a dragon whose tail is never seen.

"Stop doing this." Lin Xiaoxiao knew he couldn't stay idle, so she wanted to find something to do.

However, Luo Qingming has neither a spatial ability nor any special skills, so it would be easy for him to fail if he tried to engage in speculation and profiteering in the black market.

"Sister, don't worry, I know what I'm doing." For the first time, Luo Qingming didn't listen to Lin Xiaoxiao.

Undoubtedly, speculation and profiteering involve many dangers, but at the same time they can bring huge profits.

With such a large piece of meat in front of you, anyone would be tempted to take a bite.

"Whatever you want." He's always been a man of his own mind, and Lin Xiaoxiao didn't intend to restrict him too much.

Even if something happens to Luo Qingming, she can get him out safely.

Qin Yushen didn't say anything.

He and Song Shaohua had been friends for many years, and even for his sake, Song Shaohua wouldn't let Luo Qingming suffer a loss.

But according to his understanding, Song Shaohua is not someone who can be cooperated with just anyone.

He has high standards and high expectations, and his conduct is impeccable, which is why Song Shaohua has been able to climb so high over the years.

In ancient times, the capital city was right under the emperor's nose.

The fact that Song Shaohua dared to defy the rules and control the entire black market in Beijing, a city teeming with powerful figures, and even showed signs of expanding into surrounding provinces, is enough to prove his capabilities.

His willingness to cooperate with Luo Qingming indicates that there are aspects of Luo Qingming that he admires or that he can profit from.

Luo Qingming can learn a lot from him.

This is also why Qin Yushen did not object.

Having been formally recognized by her sister and brother-in-law, Luo Qingming felt a little happy.

"Take the passbook back." Lin Xiaoxiao pulled Luo Qingming's hand and placed the passbook in his palm. "Your brother-in-law and I have money. You can save what you earn yourself so you can get married in the future."

When it came to getting a wife, Lin Xiaoxiao's tone carried a hint of a smile.

Luo Qingming pulled her hand back, "I give all the money I earn to my sister."

"Also, I will not get married."

He would never have such a plan in his life.

"If you don't want to marry me, then don't." Lin Xiaoxiao was just teasing him, but seeing his resistant expression, she suddenly said with a mischievous grin, "What if my A-Ming marries into another family?"

"Sister, don't...don't talk nonsense."

A blush suddenly rose on his face, quickly spreading to his ears, purely from embarrassment.

Lin Xiaoxiao leaned against Qin Yushen and laughed heartily, then couldn't resist touching Luo Qingming's face. "Oh my, are you shy? Did I just say something?"

A hint of unease flashed across Luo Qingming's face.

He casually handed the bankbook to Lin Xiaoxiao, said he was going to rest, and went back to his room.

Lin Xiaoxiao stroked her chin. "This kid's got something going on."

Qin Yushen said, "It's inevitable that teenagers at this age will have their hearts fluttering."

Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at him, a half-smile on her face, "Oh? At A Ming's age, who have you ever had feelings for?"

Qin Yushen: "......."

Noticing that Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes were becoming increasingly dangerous, his survival instincts compelled him to quickly explain.

“When I was twenty, I was busy with training and missions in the army. I didn’t take a single day off in a year. I didn’t have time to think about these things.”

"Wife, I only love you."

The sudden confession caught Lin Xiaoxiao off guard.

Realizing what was happening, she looked up and met the man's affectionate gaze. Her heart skipped a beat, and she leaned into his arms. "I believe you."

Qin Yushen carefully avoided her stomach, put his arm around her waist, rested his head on her shoulder, closed his eyes, and started talking about when he first joined the army.

He spoke slowly and deliberately.

Lin Xiaoxiao listened attentively. From his simple words, one could sense his confusion at the time and his eagerness to make a name for himself and break free from the control of his family of origin.

Finally, Qin Yushen said, "If it weren't for you, I might never have started a family in my life."

He couldn't deny that he felt curious about Lin Xiaoxiao the moment he saw her.

This was the first time he had ever met such a powerful girl, and the first time in his life he had been teased, yet he couldn't do anything about it.

Even though Lin Xiaoxiao was a dark-skinned girl at the time, what impressed Qin Yu the most was her bright and sparkling eyes.

After spending time together, the two gradually developed feelings for each other.

Whenever he recalls the scene of being teased, Qin Yushen still can't help but sigh at the fate between the two of them.

Lin Xiaoxiao straightened up, cupped his face, kissed him on the lips, and laughed, "Alright, I know you can't live without me."

Qin Yushen did not refute, touching Lin Xiaoxiao's belly, thinking to himself that if they really had a child, he would play the role of a good father.

I won't let his children experience a bad childhood.

In preparation for tomorrow's inspection, Qin Yushen endured the glare of his superior and went to great lengths to get leave.

The team has just been formed, and we need to keep adding members, so we're very busy every day.

It's no wonder that bosses are unwilling to grant leave.

Since Qin Yushen has taken on the position of team leader, he has to shoulder more responsibility. If he takes a day off, it will delay many things.

But Qin Yushen didn't tell Lin Xiaoxiao any of this, and instead took her to the hospital for blood tests.

The results came out in the afternoon. They had just finished eating at the state-run restaurant and went there to get the test results, which they then took to the doctor.

Qin Yushen remained calm, showing no sign of nervousness. However, Lin Xiaoxiao noticed that his hand, which was holding hers, was trembling slightly under the table, and fine beads of water were seeping from his palm.

Is he sweating from nervousness?

Lin Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, suppressing the urge to laugh.

After reviewing the report, the doctor smiled and said, "Congratulations, you're two months pregnant."

The two had been mentally prepared, but the moment they received the definite information from the doctor, a silent joy enveloped them.

Even after leaving the hospital, Qin Yushen was still in a daze, and Lin Xiaoxiao's expression was also somewhat dazed.

Her hand was unconsciously placed on her stomach.

"There are steps, be careful." Qin Yushen, who was wavering, instinctively helped Lin Xiaoxiao up.

"Don't be so nervous, she's probably only the size of a grape right now."

Lin Xiaoxiao was the same as usual, as long as she didn't deliberately do anything dangerous.

Being overly cautious is actually not a good thing.

Qin Yu hummed in agreement, without refuting Lin Xiaoxiao's words.

Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at him.

He wasn't just not refuting; he was clearly out of it, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Qin Yushen kept supporting Lin Xiaoxiao, saying, "I still feel uneasy about this."

In the blink of an eye, he had a beloved wife, and now she was pregnant with his child. He felt a sudden surge of happiness.
