Lin Xiaoxiao could roughly guess the direction of what would happen next.

Wealth can be very tempting.

The four provinces of East China are wealthy, and Wen Jiarong, who has ruled these four provinces for more than ten years, will only become extremely rich.

It goes without saying how enormous the wealth he has accumulated is.

After Wen Jiarong died, the property found in his mansion was pitifully small; it was obvious to anyone with a brain that it couldn't have been that little.

The most likely explanation is that his daughter took him away.

Or perhaps he's hidden somewhere safe, a location known only to his daughter.

Having grown up in the Marshal's Mansion since childhood, served by more than twenty nannies, this pampered young lady, who never lifted a finger, suddenly lost her father's protection and was now parading around with a large piece of gold, attracting the attention of wolves who wanted to pounce on her and take a piece of her flesh.

Han Xiu continued, "Master Lu wanted to use his family's power to protect his wife, but little did he know that the most vicious wolf was right beside him."

"In order to obtain the wealth in Miss Wen's possession, those gentlemen of the Lu family really went to any lengths. They even stole the child while she was giving birth and threatened the couple that if they did not hand over all their possessions, they would strangle the child."

Lin Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat, and she asked eagerly, "And then?"

"And then?" Han Xiu sneered, "Then the couple gave in, but the child still died."

“That family is no good. For the past twenty years, they have lived a prosperous life by relying on the Wen family’s wealth. If it weren’t for the fact that the Lu family’s younger generation is not useless, the entire capital city would probably be dominated by the Lu family.”

Han Xiu's words made no attempt to conceal his disgust and dislike for the Lu family.

It should be said that among all the families in Beijing, very few would even consider the Lu family a good match.

Lin Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, a strange feeling stirring within her.

"But that Fourth Master Lu was also a man of courage." Han Xiu changed the subject. "He turned around and burned down the Lu family's house, killing the eldest brother, crippling the second brother, and killing the third brother's son. Of the three younger brothers, except for the Sixth Master Lu, the other two were forced to flee to the Northwest."

"The eldest branch of the Lu family is completely wiped out, not a single one is left. The third branch of the Lu family only has the extinct Third Master Lu. The second branch of the Lu family is lucky, as they still have Lu Yunzhang and Lu Xue'er as offspring."

Lin Xiaoxiao was so excited when she heard this that she slammed her hand on the table and said, "If I were that Fourth Master of the Lu family, I would just throw a packet of poison down there and kill them all."

Han Xiu smiled and said, "How do you know he didn't think that way? In the end, it was Old Master Lu who stood up and used his power to drive Fourth Master Lu and his wife out of Beijing."

"Pah!" Lin Xiaoxiao felt disgusted. "Shameless."

Taking someone else's things, killing their child, and then kicking them out of their home—it's disgusting.

She felt so disgusted that she lost her appetite.

He put down his chopsticks with a sullen look. "That Lu Yunzhang doesn't seem like a good person either. You should stay away from him."

These words were spoken to Qin Yushen.

Qin Yu nodded deeply.

Lin Xiaoxiao still felt unsatisfied, so she tugged at his hand and said, "If he causes you trouble, beat him up, beat him up badly."

The Lu family members don't seem to be any good people.

This Lu Yunzhang might be bad at heart.

Upon hearing the surname Lu, Lin Xiaoxiao felt an uncontrollable aversion from the bottom of her heart.

Feeling nauseous, Lin Xiaoxiao covered her mouth, stood up abruptly, and ran to the side to vomit.

"Xiaoxiao." Qin Yushen rushed over anxiously and put his arm around her shoulder. "Why did you throw up?"

Lin Xiaoxiao shook her head. She had vomited up everything she had just eaten. In the end, she could only dry heave. The sour taste spread in her mouth, making her feel very uncomfortable.

This unexpected situation really frightened the two men.

Han Xiu brought a glass of warm water and handed it to Qin Yushen.

"Quick, drink some water and calm down." Qin Yushen frowned, his expression heavy, and he gently stroked her back to comfort her.

Lin Xiaoxiao raised her head, her eyes filled with tears, her hair disheveled and plastered to her face. She felt a little better after taking a sip of water.

"I feel so uncomfortable, sob sob sob..." She wiped her mouth and snuggled into Qin Yushen's arms, feeling uncomfortable all over.

This sight was truly heartbreaking for Qin Yu.

He picked her up in one swift motion. "To the hospital."

"I'll go get the car." Han Xiu had only taken two steps when he remembered that he had been drinking, and his expression became somewhat troubled.

Qin Yushen had also had some drinks, and at this point, they absolutely could not drive.

"Put me down." Lin Xiaoxiao struggled to get down, sat on the chair to rest for a while, and gently stroked her still somewhat uncomfortable abdomen.

After a while, she said to Qin Yushen, "It's nothing, it's probably morning sickness, it's normal."

"Morning nausea?" Han Xiu stared wide-eyed at the couple in surprise.

Lin Xiaoxiao took a few more sips of water to suppress her nausea. "Yeah, didn't Qin Yushen tell you?"

Han Xiu stared at Qin Yushen with dead fish eyes, "You didn't even tell me about such a big happy event."

Qin Yu said calmly, "I originally planned to tell you after dinner."

Who knew something unexpected would happen?

His worries hadn't subsided, and he held Lin Xiaoxiao's hand, saying, "You threw up what you just ate, let's eat something else."

Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at the food on the table, but had no appetite at all.

So she shook her head, "I don't want to eat."

Not eating is not an option.

Qin Yu thought of the handwritten pregnancy care manual he had written. He had also researched a lot about morning sickness and asked some experienced people.

After vomiting, you should not eat greasy food; instead, you should eat light and refreshing foods.
