Chapter 80 Are You Pregnant?
His palms were burning hot, and he lifted the person up from behind the neck.
"Little lazy pig, if you don't get up now, the food will get cold."
His voice was deep and clear in the quiet bedroom.
Sang Wan moaned and arched her back in the soft silk quilt, revealing only a pair of sleepy peach blossom eyes, shimmering with light.
"No, I want to sleep."
Her voice was soft and sticky, with a nasal sound of someone just waking up, like a cat that was lying in bed, and every syllable was a sign of coquettishness.
"You didn't eat dinner, are you starving yourself to the point of having a stomachache?"
Lu Tingzhou did not allow any argument. He stretched out his long arms and simply picked up the man and the quilt together.
"Lu Tingzhou, put me down."
Sang Wan screamed and struggled with her hands and feet, but the man held her tighter, and her nostrils were filled with his refreshing and pleasant scent.
He placed her steadily on a chair in the dining room. Warm millet porridge and several exquisite and refreshing side dishes were already prepared in front of her.
Sang Wan curled her lips, showing an appetite.
She picked up the celadon spoon and drank the porridge in small sips, but she kept glancing at the man opposite her out of the corner of her eye.
The light shone on him, his black shirt still crisp, and his noble appearance easily disturbed her mind.
"What are you looking at?" Lu Tingzhou caught her gaze and curled the corners of his lips slightly.
"Look, Mr. Lu is so handsome."
Use frankness to cover up guilty conscience.
Lu Tingzhou rubbed her head. "You knew it on the first day? Are you sure you didn't have any sexual desire towards me before?"
Sang Wan blushed at the sight of her beauty. The quick meeting at the airport did attract him.
When I learned that he was the president of Lu Corporation, I couldn't contain my excitement.
Sang Wan smiled with her lips curved and eyes narrowed, then put down the spoon and deliberately drew out her tone, "Boss Lu, what a trick you have to use to bring about 'internal conflicts within the company'. You've directly exposed the Lu family's affairs. Aren't you afraid that the old man will get angry?"
"It's better for him to get angry than for you to be wronged."
Lu Tingzhou said it calmly, but Sang Wan knew the interests involved.
In an instant, my heart felt warm.
This man is always like this.
With the calmest attitude, doing the craziest things, responding to her every bit.
She casually stirred the porridge in her bowl and asked softly, "Is there anything else you're hiding from me?"
Her gaze vaguely fell on his bony hands, and the ancient and solemn crimson marriage certificate flashed clearly in her mind.
When will he finally speak?
When Lu Tingzhou heard this, a smile flashed across his deep black eyes, so fast that Sang Wan couldn't catch it.
There was only one thing he was hiding from her, and how could he possibly tell her before he made up his mind?
Since it's a surprise, I have to wait until everything is ready before telling her.
He wanted to wait until the most perfect moment, to make her willingly belong to him alone under the watchful eyes of everyone.
"No."
He answered decisively, his eyes so open that there was no trace of flaws. "Why would I hide this from you?"
Sang Wan looked at his determined expression, curved her lips into a smile, and stopped asking questions, but she was thinking in her heart.
If he really wanted to surprise her, she would naturally follow suit.
I'm afraid I will never fall in love with anyone else except him in this life.
After all, it is a bit difficult for people who have eaten meat to drink soup.
This is what is called the difficulty of going from extravagance to frugality.
only……
She lowered her eyelashes and looked at the soft and glutinous millet porridge in the bowl, but a complicated feeling welled up in her heart.
Isn't it too selfish to make him become an enemy of the entire family for her sake and let him get caught up in such a vortex of internal strife?
After finishing the bowl of warm millet porridge, Sang Wan felt that it was inevitable for him to meet Sun Meixi.
She couldn't always hide under his wings and enjoy his protection.
So he sent another message to Lu Jinxuan, asking him to let his mother meet him as soon as possible.
When Sun Meixi learned that Sang Wan was going to invite her to dinner, she knew what she was going to do, so she deliberately put on airs and refused to see her.
After much persuasion from Lu Jinxuan, she reluctantly agreed, but Sang Wan still had to wait for three days.
In fact, she also knew that a meeting with Sang Wan was inevitable. After all, the third brother had issued such a statement and was determined.
Now the only breakthrough is Sang Wan.
The location is the most luxurious French restaurant in Shenzhen.
In the restaurant, the crystal chandeliers reflect brilliant light, and every detail shows exquisiteness and nobility.
Money and luxury are indeed equal.
When Sang Wan arrived, Sun Meixi was already sitting by the window. She was wearing a luxurious suit and had an elegant posture, but her eyes were filled with undisguised scrutiny and contempt.
What surprised her was that Song Xinran was sitting next to Sun Meixi.
There's no need for them to even avoid suspicion.
Sang Wan curled her lips. How could Sun Meixi miss the opportunity to make her unhappy?
She was seated under the guidance of the waiter, and looked at Sun Meixi calmly with a gentle smile, neither humble nor arrogant.
"Mrs. Lu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Sun Meixi snorted coldly and didn't respond. She cut the appetizer bread with her knife and fork, and the force seemed to be poking Sang Wan's face.
"We are not as good as Miss Sang. We are afraid of being photographed when we go out."
Sang Wan didn't get angry and went straight to the point.
"I know that you have a grudge against me because of what happened between Jinxuan and Xu Mingyue."
She paused, her voice clear, "But you also know in your heart that Xu Mingyue's vision and scheming are written on her face. She is not worthy of the simple-minded Jinxuan. My ruining that marriage is not a bad thing for you."
These words hit Sun Meixi's heart precisely.
She really looked down on Xu Mingyue, a woman who was not presentable, but it was only because of the threat from Wang Sheng.
Sang Wan's interference actually made her happy.
Sun Meixi finally raised her eyes and looked at Sang Wan.
"It's the only good thing you've done."
Although his tone softened slightly, he was still harsh, "But don't think that this will change anything."
After saying that, the contempt in his eyes resurfaced, "You are not allowed to enter our Lu family."
"Miss Sang, you are still young and pretty. While Tingzhou is still somewhat interested in you, you should get more benefits and then find a good family to marry. That is the right way for you."
These words were both vicious and realistic, treating her as a commodity that could be priced.
Song Xinran sat aside, lips curved, silent, looking at her phone elegantly.
"Mrs. Lu, I've always been confused. What exactly makes you so hostile towards me?"
Sun Meixi looked up at her, and because of these words, her eyes were filled with hatred.
"Because...I don't like you."
She almost said what was in her heart, but finally swallowed it back.
Seeing that the conversation between the two had reached a deadlock, Song Xinran spoke up at the right time, "Sang Wan, relationships between people depend on fate. We can't force everyone to like us. Of course, I admire your talent very much. I'm sure you know that I'm the one who has been asking you to write articles and buy your manuscripts."
The information that Sang Wan had someone investigate was indeed true. The IP address of the account on Weibo did match Song Xinran's previous address.
Hearing her say this, Sang Wan sneered disdainfully, "You relied on me to become the chief designer of Modo, and you even stabbed me in the back. Do you think I value your appreciation?"
"Don't say that. Meeting is fate. Besides, you should thank me for being so discerning and willing to spend money on your design."
Song Xinran's shameless smile gave Sang Wan a headache. These two women were really... on the same wavelength.
That was the only word she could think of to describe it.
"How about we collaborate?" Song Xinran leaned forward slightly. "I have the connections, the channels, and the funding, and you can do the design. We can open an independent brand studio together, and I'll run it. Within three years, we can gain a firm foothold in the domestic and international fashion circles."
If she and Sang Wan formed a community of interests, Lu Tingzhou would not target her. Instead, he would provide her with a steady stream of resources and financial support.
What a daydream! Sang Wan looked at her and smiled.
The smile was faint, as cold as ice.
"Ms. Song's proposal does sound tempting, but I don't like working with others."
Sun Meixi just wanted to embarrass Sang Wan, otherwise she wouldn't have called Song Xinran.
Seeing that Song Xinran was at a disadvantage, he curled his lips and said, "This woman is useless."
At this time, the waiter brought a plate of fragrant French-style pan-fried foie gras.
The moment the rich and unique aroma of oil entered Sang Wan's nose, his stomach suddenly churned.
“Hmm…”
The color drained from her face instantly, and she subconsciously covered her mouth with a handkerchief. A strong feeling of nausea rushed to her throat.
"Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom."
As Sang Wan left, the crisp sound of knives and forks colliding stopped abruptly.
Sun Meixi and Song Xinran stopped their movements at the same time.
Both of their eyes were fixed on Sang Wan's departing back.
Sun Meixi's originally arrogant expression flashed with a hint of surprise, and then was covered with a layer of cruelty.
As for Song Xinran, the hypocritical smile on her face had completely faded.
After all, they were both experienced people, and they looked at each other tacitly across the table.
Obviously they understood each other's thoughts.
Sang Wan retched in the bathroom for a while, but nothing came out.
After taking a break and feeling better, I returned to my seat.
"Mrs. Lu, I'm sorry, I don't feel well today." Sang Wan was very respectful to Sun Meixi with the attitude of asking for help.
"Miss Sang is deliberately disgusting us?"
Song Xinran glanced at her with deliberate sarcasm.
"How could that be? I was sincere in meeting Mrs. Lu."
Sang Wan still maintained her smile.
"I know you don't like me, but I still want to know the reason. We have no grudges against each other, so why do you reject me so much?"
Sun Meixi was more than just repulsed at this moment, the hatred in her eyes seemed to be ignitable.
She suppressed the hatred in her heart and bit her lip, "Are you pregnant?"
Instead of answering Sang Wan, he threw out such a shocking statement.
Sang Wan looked at her in confusion, "Pregnant?"
After asking, she was stunned and secretly recalled when she last had her period.
She hadn't realized it before, but after Sun Meixi asked her this, she felt uneasy.
Thinking about that night in the Beijing hotel, Lu Tingzhou was indeed crazy.
"Xinran, you can go first. I want to have a good talk with Miss Sang about why I don't like her."
