Although Lu Jin was skeptical, Jian Ruoxi insisted that she was not pregnant, so she had no choice but to give up.
When she answered the Lu family's call, she saw that woman arrogantly giving orders to everyone in the house.
"Take these clothes, bags, and shoes out, pack them up, and send them to Jian Ruoxi."
Li Anran directed everyone to clear things out of the room.
She suddenly lost her temper and blocked the moving workers.
"This is my sister-in-law's room! Who gave you permission to mess around like this!"
Seeing Miss Lu's obstruction, the workers had no choice but to put down their work and look at Li Anran with difficulty.
“Miss, you need to understand, they are divorced now. Jian Ruoxi is your ex-sister-in-law. I will be living in this room from now on, so naturally I will put my own things here.”
Since her falling out with Lu Jin, Li Anran no longer bothered to pretend and simply ordered the workers to continue moving.
"Who gave you permission to be so arrogant in the Lu family!"
Lu Jin walked up the stairs and shoved the smug woman.
"How dare you! You call yourself a young lady of the Lu family, yet your behavior is so vulgar and rude. Where is the slightest bit of the demeanor of a lady from a distinguished family?"
The old lady came out leaning on her cane, tapping it loudly.
“You don’t need to make things difficult for Anran. I asked her to move out. What’s the point of keeping those indecent women’s clothes at home? Now that your brother and Anran are engaged, you should cut ties with the past and live a good life.”
The old lady waved her hand and had someone take Lu Jin back to his room. Several people came up and forcefully took Lu Jin away from the hall.
"An actress! So many scandals have been exposed the other day. With such a scandalous private life, how can she be worthy of being the young mistress of the Lu family? Don't think I don't know, if it weren't for Lu Shen, could that little bitch have cleared her name? I think Lu Shen has lost his mind."
The old lady tapped the workers with her cane, signaling them not to stop and to keep moving.
Soon, the boxes were packed and delivered to Jian Ruoxi's house.
"Madam Lu asked me to tell you that everything you have stored in the Lu family is here. From now on, unless there is a specific reason, it is best not to step into the Lu family's door again."
The housekeeper had the things placed in the courtyard and timidly conveyed Old Madam Lu's words.
Jian Ruoxi looked sadly at the boxes and went back to her room to get a box of matches.
She lit a match and threw it at the gift boxes. Instantly, flames filled the courtyard.
She laughed maniacally, coughing from the thick smoke and tears streaming down her face.
The Lu family members were so frightened that they quickly left.
Grandma Lu held Li Anran's hand as they started a press conference.
He publicly announced that his grandson Lu Shen and Li Anran's engagement would take place on the eighth day of next month.
Everyone had been trying to figure out who the real young mistress of the Lu family was.
The young master of the Lu family showed off his romance at the airport, publicly professing his love for Ang Lee and then releasing behind-the-scenes footage of his wedding with Jian Ruoxi.
Many people questioned whether Li Anran was a third party who interfered in the marriage of a wealthy family.
Now that Madam Lu has officially announced the wedding date in front of the media with Li Anran, it's clear that the matter is settled.
Soon, entertainment reporters began digging into the past romantic relationships of these three people.
The news article prominently featured a photo of the three people together.
"The battle among the wealthy families has come to an end today! Rising star Jian Ruoxi suffered a crushing defeat against the aristocratic Li Anran. The Lu family publicly announced their wedding date; Lu Shen and Li Anran's good news is just around the corner!"
Upon seeing the news headlines and pictures, Lu Shen flew into a rage.
When he rushed back to the Lu family home, he saw Old Madam Lu and Li Anran having afternoon tea together.
"Ah Shen! You're back?" Li Anran happily stepped forward to help him take off his outer garment.
He grabbed her hand, and his angry look made her pull it back.
Old Mrs. Lu immediately objected upon seeing this:
"What kind of attitude is this? Anran was eagerly awaiting your return and prepared a huge feast for you. Who are you trying to impress with this rude attitude?"
Lu Shen angrily walked to the table, slammed the newspaper on it, and demanded:
"Grandma! Who let you hold this press conference? Who set the date? Who announced the wedding?"
He panicked when he saw the news report; God knows how terrified he was that Jian Ruoxi would see it.
He had planned to settle things here and then explain, but now he couldn't explain it at all.
"What? I can't speak for the Lu family anymore? I can't even make decisions about your marriage? I not only announced your wedding date, but I also made her pack up all her things and send them back. I'm telling you straight, as long as I'm here, Jian Ruoxi can forget about ever setting foot in this house again!"
Grandma Lu swung her cane and struck Lu Shen hard. She hated him for being so infatuated and now daring to talk back to his elders. He was lawless!
Lu Shen grabbed his cane and looked directly at Old Madam Lu:
"Grandma, don't force me. If you push me too far, I'll just quit being the young master of the Lu family."
Upon hearing his grandmother's actions, Lu Shen immediately sensed something was wrong and tried to rush out the door.
"You dare! If you step out of this door today, never come back."
Grandma Lu stomped her feet and cursed angrily.
Li Anran also stepped forward and took Lu Shen's arm, looking as if she had been frightened.
"Shen, don't be angry, I'll change. I'll listen to whatever you say. Don't be angry, don't leave me. I'm a good girl, as long as you're happy, I'm willing to be with all three of us."
Lu Shen was also somewhat exasperated when he saw Li Anran rambling incoherently after being provoked again.
Just then, the old lady swayed and fell to the ground.
He had no choice but to go back inside and clean up the mess.
When Su Ziyu came to see Jian Ruoxi, he was startled by the thick smoke billowing in the courtyard.
He rushed in in a panic, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jian Ruoxi was safe and sound.
"It turns out that saying goodbye to the past is really hard, just like the objects in this yard. Even though the fire burned for a long time, it still stubbornly left behind a pile of scattered objects."
Jian Ruoxi felt cold all over her body, as if the cold wind had frozen her blood, her heart, and her senses.
She also saw the news, and she was surprised to find that she didn't have any strong reaction while watching it.
Because my heart ached so much, to the point of numbness.
She felt a slight tightening in her abdomen, and the pain made her bend over.
Seeing this, Su Ziyu quickly picked up Jian Ruoxi and drove to the hospital.
On the way, she instructed Su Ziyu not to mention her pregnancy to anyone, not even Lu Jin.
Su Ziyu glared at her angrily, but could only nod.
She was in so much pain that she was covered in sweat, and even though her lips were bleeding from being bitten, she didn't utter a single sound.
The doctor wheeled her into the emergency room, while Su Ziyu paced anxiously outside.
She was wheeled out shortly afterward, thankfully everything was rescued in time.
The doctor told Su Ziyu seriously that he must not further agitate the patient, otherwise the child might be lost and the mother might also be in danger.
Seeing his worried expression, she forced a smile.
Su Ziyu laughed and then cried:
"Jian Ruoxi, you look really ugly..."
