Chapter 139 The Spirit Spring is Offered to My Aunt, Excellent for Pregnancy Protection and Beauty
The little cub accurately caught the keyword that Su Shanshan had let slip.
She admitted that she had drugged her aunt!
But that's not enough. If you can't kill the enemy hiding in the shadows in one blow, you must not alert them.
Zhizhi pretended to be clueless, "Since you have feelings for your uncle, why can't you have a child?"
Su Shanshan smiled and gently pinched the little cub's cheek.
"I'm out having dinner with your uncle, aren't I? Be good and don't ruin your aunt's fun. After dinner, you can go home by yourself, okay?"
The little cub looked at Su Shanshan with a smile, "Okay, Zhizhi will be good and won't disturb Auntie's good time."
As he spoke, Ji Yanjing walked over from a distance.
"What are you talking about?"
"Brother Jing, I just told Zhizhi that the steak here is especially delicious, and it goes even better with red wine. Do you want to try it?"
Su Shanshan pinched her throat, pretending to be understanding.
Zhizhi, meanwhile, was enjoying her meal. She quickly finished her food and then wiped her mouth with a tissue.
"Uncle, I'm going back to see Grandpa Ji. I like this aunt, so you should get along well with her."
The cub cooperated very well with Su Shanshan, which greatly reduced her vigilance.
Under Su Shanshan's smug gaze, the little cub waved to Ji Yanjing and went downstairs to take the car home.
"I'll take you downstairs to find a car."
Ji Yanjing wiped his mouth and, without saying a word, offered to take her downstairs.
This time, Su Shanshan wasn't worried that he would run away. Instead, she waved to the two of them understandingly, "Goodbye, Zhizhi. Remember to come back soon, Brother Jing."
The two, one big and one small, walked down the stairs. Zhizhi quietly turned around and found that Su Shanshan was indeed tampering with the red wine in the decanter.
However, she didn't make a fuss until she walked to the outside of the Western restaurant.
The little cub stopped and turned to look at his uncle. "There's medicine in the wine. Be careful."
Ji Yanjing curled the corners of his mouth, but the curve was not a smile at all. "You should have expected this part when you told me in the car that you would use your good looks to seduce me."
"Uncle! I'm telling you, you can't make mistakes that are against your principles!"
Zhizhi looked at him righteously and reiterated, "If you dare to wrong Aunt Xuetong, you'll be kneeling on a washboard when you get back!"
After the little cub finished speaking, it waved its hand and said, "You go up quickly, I'll sneak up through the back door and wait for you!"
Ji Yanjing curled his fingers and silently returned to the restaurant.
... ...
Only Ji Yanjing and Su Shanshan remained in the restaurant.
Su Shanshan kept urging him to drink, and surprisingly, Ji Yanjing, who usually didn't drink at all, didn't refuse this time.
The two men clinked their glasses together again and again.
By the end of the drinking session, Ji Yanjing was slumped over the table, completely motionless.
Su Shanshan straightened up and shook her head, trying to clear her mind.
"Waiter, the bill, please."
She pulled three large bills from her purse and handed them to the waiter, waving him off and telling him to keep the change. Then she helped Ji Yanjing upstairs.
The hotel rooms are located upstairs from the Western restaurant. It's owned by a foreign businessman and has the same Western decor.
The cub's words just now were like a shot in the arm for her.
She wanted to marry Ji Yanjing, so of course she needed to create intimate contact.
Su Shanshan staggered upstairs with the waiter and directed him to put her on the large bed.
Looking at the drunken and unconscious Ji Yanjing, her eyes were filled with love and ambition.
"Ah Jing, I'm better than Xue Tong in every way. Once tonight is over, you won't be able to escape my grasp."
As she spoke, she began to unbutton her little dress.
Suddenly, the lights in the hotel room went out, plunging the room into darkness.
Su Shanshan, under the influence of alcohol, was completely unaware that a pair of clear yet gloomy eyes were slowly watching her from the darkness.
The next second, Su Shanshan felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck, and she collapsed limply onto the bed.
The hotel room door opened, and Zhizhi calmly turned on the light.
"Uncle, she just admitted to drugging Aunt. What do you plan to do?"
If we follow the little cub's temperament, then of course it's an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
Su Shanshan lied that her aunt had a heart condition and kept giving her digitalis. This drug is no different from a deadly poison. Her aunt's body was damaged to such an extent that even her previous baby was killed without her knowledge.
If Zhizhi were to choose how to take revenge, she would definitely tie her up, beat her with sticks, and then strip her of her job after returning to the capital.
Ji Yanjing sat up straight, his dark eyes clear and stern, showing no sign of drunkenness.
“Leave this matter to me. Zhizhi... You are still young. There are some things you don’t need to know too much about. You just need to understand one thing: anyone who dares to touch the Ji family should be prepared to face my revenge.”
His words were vague, but the invisible pressure he exerted made the atmosphere in the room drop to freezing point.
Zhizhi pursed her lips and nodded after a long while.
"Just don't let your aunt feel wronged."

evening
The Jiang family was bustling with activity. Xue Tong was treated like a national treasure panda, wrapped in layer upon layer of blankets. Deng Qiu even found Zhi Zhi's little rabbit plush coat and put it on Xue Tong's head as a hat.
Xuetong felt embarrassed. "Sister-in-law, I'm not that delicate. Please don't bother, I'll feel bad."
Deng Qiu persistently brought her a hot water bottle and placed it under her feet.
"In the early stages of pregnancy, the fetus is most unstable. Since Zhizhi has already told us to take good care of you, we should naturally take good care of you. Is there anything you want to eat? Should I make you sweet and sour pork ribs? Or would you like to try stir-fried sausage with chili peppers?"
"How about we cook some rice and make braised pork rice?"
Su Xuetong pursed her lips, her face flushed red with shyness.
"Sister-in-law, really, it's not necessary. There's some milk tea left over from the one Zhizhi made for me. I'll just finish it."
"Oh, right!"
Suddenly, Deng Qiu remembered something. She climbed onto the bed using both her hands and feet and took a bottle of spiritual spring water from the cabinet.
She carefully poured it into a porcelain bowl and then placed it next to the stove to keep it warm.
"Drink this water later; it'll be good for the baby."
Ever since Zhizhi told her about the function of the space, she has carefully studied the function of the spiritual spring water.
The instructions for use list that Lingquan has many effects, including preventing pregnancy-related pigmentation, stretch marks, and other skin problems, as well as protecting the fetus.
Xuetong's pregnancy was not easy, and she had little experience, so she would have to stay in Suzhou for a while longer.
With her parents away, she's all alone and doesn't understand anything, so I have to take good care of her.
"The water's ready, have a drink."
Deng Qiu held the spring water to her side, and Xue Tong tilted her head back and drank a few mouthfuls. The clear and sweet taste was very different from ordinary water.
Xuetong's eyes lit up. "This is... mineral water? It tastes so good?"
"It's spring water, but it contains trace amounts of traditional Chinese medicine, which will have a good effect on you and your baby."
"Sister-in-law, you've never given birth, how do you know so much?"
Xue Tong tilted her head curiously to look at Deng Qiu, but in fact, she was filled with deep emotions.
I heard from A-Jing that Deng Qiu divorced her first husband with Zhi Zhi. That husband was greedy and even tried to kidnap Zhi Zhi for the Ji family's money.
It's such a pity that such a good person as Sister-in-law Deng was stuck in the mud for so long.
Deng Qiu sighed helplessly, "Although I have never given birth, I have three children. You don't know, Gan Su and Zhen Wei are so young that their clothes and shoes need to be changed every three months. They grow so fast. Zhi Zhi is the one who worries me the most. I feed her good food and drink, but she is almost four years old and still looks small."
"Sister-in-law, you are truly amazing. None of these three children are your biological children, yet you know them so well. Even a biological mother wouldn't be this good."
Xue Tong herself could not possibly do that.
She was careless and not a good cook. She thought that when her baby grew up, he would want his mother to cook for him.
What should she do?
Xuetong's eyes suddenly lit up. "Sister-in-law, how about... you teach me to cook?"
