He just felt like he was holding a bag of explosives in his hand, and it was not right to hold it in his arms or to hide it in his pocket.

I was so nervous that my eardrums were buzzing.

If someone sees this thing, it will be the end of him. He has to hide it well, otherwise he will not only not harm others but also get himself into trouble.

However, just as he reached the door of the guesthouse, he suddenly saw that all his things had been packed and neatly placed at the door.

He was completely confused: "Who threw my things out?"

"It's me."

The old lady walked out calmly: "You've already come here and have been here for such a long time. I called your newspaper editor today, and you actually said that your mother was sick and that's why you asked for leave. How shameless! You've been absent from work for so many days, no matter what, you should go back. You don't have to worry about things here anymore!"

Lu Jian felt as embarrassed as if he had been slapped in the face in public.

He stepped forward with his neck stiff: "My mother is still here, why should I leave?"

Seeing him continue to be so stubborn, the old lady could only sneer, "Your mother has committed a capital crime and may be imprisoned here for the rest of her life. Are you really going to stay here forever?"

Lu Jian was so angry that he wanted to pounce on the old lady and bite her hard.

But he was afraid that if he moved too much, the things in his arms would fall out, so he could only say coldly: "Don't bother with me, old man. I'll move it right away!"

Lu Hongjun gave him a lot of money and power, so it was not difficult for him to find a place to settle down here.

The old lady looked at his receding back and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

She had actually confirmed that Lu Jian was not a child of the Lu family!

However, Lu Jian has been raised in the Lu family for so many years, and it is unrealistic to drive him away all of a sudden. Even if he has no blood relationship with the Lu family, the old lady will not let him get out of the Lu family.

But all this is based on a prerequisite - that is, he can no longer have any contact with Bai Huan!

Bai Huan is a troublemaker. He has spoiled Lu Jian since he was a child, which resulted in Lu Jian not being taught well at all, and growing up to be the crooked boy he is now.

Now, if he repents and is willing to go back to work, the old lady will turn a blind eye.

However, if he still wants to continue to stir up trouble, the Lu family will not tolerate him!

I hope he can come to his senses.

However, seeing the gloomy look on Lu Jian's face when he left, the old lady knew that he was most likely holding a grudge against her.

At this moment, Gu Qingning had also heard about this matter.

She knew that Lu Jian would most likely attack Old Madam Lu right away, so she went straight to her house, wanting to accompany the old lady.

"Why are you here with such a big belly?"

The moment she saw Gu Qingning, the old lady's eyes almost sparkled.

But I felt so sorry for her as a pregnant woman who had to run such a long distance.

"Look at what you said. Even if I'm pregnant, I still need to be more active so that the delivery will go smoothly."

Taking advantage of the fact that the two of them were sitting so close, she quickly asked 888 to come out and observe the old lady's current physical condition.

888 examined her and said, "The remaining toxins in her body have been eliminated. So far, there are no signs of further poisoning. However, her pulse is still very weak and fragile. She needs to be properly nourished."

She then asked the system to help analyze the composition of the poison.

"This is a very special drug. When taken in small doses, there will be no symptoms at all. Only when taken over a long period of time will it have an effect. Eventually, the old lady may die of a sudden heart attack, and it will look like a natural death."

What a brilliant trick!

"Since he takes it daily, it must be someone close to him who poisoned him. Where can he buy this poison?"

"Generally speaking, this type of drug is only available in a small number of hospitals. The poisonous ingredients are very rare, and even rarer in China."

Gu Qingning really wanted to find out who poisoned her.

She took the opportunity to bring up the old lady's illness: "You were not feeling well last time and went to the hospital for a checkup. Are there any other problems?"

When the old lady mentioned this incident, she was even more grateful to her: "It's a good thing you were there last time, otherwise I might have died a long time ago. Thank you for saving my life!"

After saying that, she took off a necklace from her neck and said, "This is jadeite from the Qing Dynasty. It's an old item. Although the water content is not that good, I liked it back then. Take it well!"

Gold has a price but jade is priceless, not to mention antique jadeite. Gu Qingning certainly knew that this thing was worth a lot of money.

She quickly refused: "You should keep such a valuable item yourself. I really can't afford it!"

"Just take it when I told you to. Why are you talking so much?" The old lady scolded her and hung the necklace directly around her neck.

Gu Qingning was about to refuse when she heard a cold sneer coming from outside.

"You spoke so righteously last time, saying you didn't want to cling to the Lu family, but now you're rushing over here right now? You've already got such an expensive jade necklace, it's really worth it for you to come here!"

Bai Huan begged for this necklace for a long time but failed to get it, and was even severely criticized by the old lady.

Now, the old lady actually gave it to an outsider so easily?

Lu Hongjun's face was full of ironic smile.

Gu Qingning didn't say anything, but just looked at the old lady silently.

The old lady said coldly, "This is mine. I can give it to whoever I want. Do you have any objections?"

"Mom, Gu Qingning is an outsider. You're giving her such a valuable thing. Aren't you afraid of being cheated? After all, with a shrew like her, it's hard to say whose child she's carrying. Who knows, it could be some bastard!"

There was a crisp "pa" sound, which made Lu Hongjun stunned.

Gu Qingning also felt great!

“Get out!”

The old lady had a gloomy face and her lips trembled with anger.

Lu Hongjun didn't expect that he would be slapped like this. He looked at Gu Qingning behind him fiercely and left angrily.

"It's all because I didn't teach this child well that you heard those dirty words. Don't worry, from now on, he won't dare to say such words again!"

It would be a great loss if such a good daughter-in-law refused to return to the Lu family because of her son's character.

The old lady wanted to eliminate all factors that would make Gu Qingning feel uneasy and let her move back to the Lu family as soon as possible.

She just smiled faintly: "Don't worry, we are just unfamiliar with each other. After spending more time together, he will definitely understand us."

What a good child!

The old lady smiled comfortably and said, "I have already sent a message to the Bai family, Chang Qing's maternal grandparents. They will surely know the news that Chang Qing is still alive soon."

I wonder how happy the old lady of the Bai family would be when she saw this!

At this moment, in the Bai family compound, the teacup in Old Lady Bai's hand fell to the ground.

"What did you say? Lu Yu... is still alive!"
