Seeing that Lin Xi was completely unmoved, Wen Zhu wisely shut her mouth, secretly cursing him as an idiot.
He reluctantly tied Lin Xi's hair into a bun, then immediately made an excuse to leave.
Even if Lin Xi doesn't go, he has ways to deal with it. Having stayed in the Su residence for so long, he still has some connections.
...
Dinner time.
As soon as Ling Feng stepped out, he ran into Lin Xi and his group. All the men were there, not one missing.
"Greetings, my lord!"
After thinking for a moment, Ling Feng greeted Lin Xi, but he didn't intend to pay any attention to the other men.
Seeing that he dared to ignore him in front of so many people, Ji Qingyu was furious.
"We're ahead of you in line, you should greet us too!"
He took a step forward, glaring at him unhappily, ignoring Ji Yuan's attempt to pull his hand away.
Xiaoying clenched her fist, but pretended not to see it.
Ling Feng looked at Ji Qingyu with a calm expression, exuding an air of arrogance.
“We’re all Xiao Jun, so even if you entered the door before me, I have no obligation to greet you.”
"you!"
Ji Qingyu's chest heaved with anger, but she didn't know what to say in rebuttal. In the end, she could only retreat behind him with Ji Yuan's force.
Seeing that the situation was getting a bit tense, Lin Xi quickly tried to smooth things over.
"Alright, alright, we're all family, no distinction of status, let's just get along peacefully."
Lin Xi looked at Ling Feng and smiled humbly at him.
"Young Master Ling, you don't need to greet me specially anymore. We don't follow so many rules at home."
"good."
Seeing that he said that, Ling Feng did not insist. After all, he had seen their way of getting along before, and it was indeed different from that of ordinary families.
The tense atmosphere dissipated, and Ling Feng was invited to travel with them. Aside from Ji Qingyu still disliking him, everything else was easier than he had imagined.
Since there were two pregnant men in the group who were already showing, everyone slowed down their pace, which made Ling Feng feel a bit more relaxed.
"You've all arrived together today."
Seeing Su Qinghe, who had arrived unusually early, the men were all taken aback and quickly found seats.
How could they let their wife wait for them!
Seeing the only empty spot left on the table, Ling Feng consciously walked over and sat down.
I don't know if it was because we chatted on the way and got closer, but the table is not the same as it was at lunchtime. The round table has been divided up again.
"If you're really feeling unwell, you can have someone cook some porridge for you."
Seeing Ling Feng's pained expression again, Su Qinghe couldn't help but say something.
Is Young Master Ling ill?
Upon hearing Su Qinghe's words, the others also turned their gazes to Ling Feng.
"I won't vomit..."
Just as Ling Feng was about to politely decline, a fishy smell suddenly filled his nostrils, instantly raising goosebumps on his skin.
This time the attack was fierce, and he could no longer bear it, so he quickly covered his mouth and ran out. Xiaoying, who had been standing beside him, also quickly poured a glass of water and chased after him.
"My lady, what's wrong with my husband, Ling? He looks quite serious. Should we call a doctor to take a look?"
Watching the person rush out, Lin Xi touched Su Qinghe's arm with some concern.
Su Qinghe's face stiffened, and she was somewhat speechless.
She didn't want several men to know that she had been drugged.
But before she could figure out how to tell the men, she inexplicably brought a man back, and he was pregnant.
This gave her the illusion that she was keeping a mistress outside, and then the mistress got pregnant and she had to bring her back to live with her, and she didn't dare to tell her family.
Seeing Su Qinghe's troubled expression, Ji Yuan's eyes flickered, and he had a guess in his mind.
"My lady, could it be that my husband, Ling Langjun, is also pregnant?" he asked uncertainly.
"How is that possible!"
Before Su Qinghe could speak, Ji Qingyu jumped up. He grabbed Su Qinghe's hand, his face full of anxiety, startling Qin Ange who was standing nearby.
"The mistress stays in the manor every day, and even if she goes out on errands, she returns quickly. Ling Feng only entered the manor today, so even if..."
As Ji Qingyu spoke, she glanced at Su Qinghe with some uncertainty.
"Even if the wife really is... it's impossible for her to get pregnant so quickly!"
As if comforting himself, Ji Qingyu became more and more certain as he spoke, holding Su Qinghe's hand tightly, as if he wanted to get a positive answer from her.
Su Qinghe looked at him somewhat guiltily, about to say something, when suddenly a sound of retching came from outside the hall.
The crowd looked at each other in silence, and the entire hall fell quiet for a moment.
Ji Qingyu stood there, stunned, looking at Su Qinghe with a somewhat helpless expression.
"My lady..." he called out aggrievedly, his eyes reddening as he looked at Su Qinghe.
The wife actually found a new man outside. Although all women are like that, he still couldn't accept it.
Having lived together for so long, Su Qinghe had almost become the most beautiful image of a wife in his heart.
But one day, this same person suddenly started keeping a man outside the marriage, and only brought him back after he got pregnant.
His faith almost collapsed at that moment.
He could accept taking Xiaojun openly and honestly, but why keep a mistress?
Moreover, judging from the timeline, Ling Feng should only be a little over a month pregnant. So wouldn't it be very likely that he was the only one in the mansion who could serve Su Qinghe?
Thinking of this, Ji Qingyu felt extremely ashamed.
It must be because he couldn't satisfy his wife that she went to find someone else. Even if we take a step back, is he completely without fault?
The wife must have had no choice; she probably didn't want to hurt him, which is why she didn't tell them. She only brought Ling Feng back because she was pregnant!
Ji Qingyu thought about it more and more and felt that this was indeed the case, and nodded involuntarily.
Looking at the man who seemed somewhat dazed, Su Qinghe panicked. Could he really be heartbroken?
The others, seeing the situation before them, put aside the important news they had just heard and looked at Ji Qingyu with some helplessness.
"Yu-ge'er? You..."
Su Qinghe tentatively grabbed his arm and shook it.
"ah?"
Ji Qingyu snapped out of her thoughts and saw Su Qinghe's worried expression. She felt even more ashamed, pouted, and quickly hugged Su Qinghe's neck.
"Waaah, my wife... it's all my fault for being so useless... I don't blame you, I'll definitely work harder from now on..."
Hearing the man's nonsensical words, Su Qinghe was momentarily stunned, and the words of explanation and comfort she was about to offer stuck in her throat.
After thinking for a moment, she gently patted the man's back. Whether he understood or not was not important, but the gesture of comforting him was essential! Su Qinghe knew this well.
"What should Brother Qingyu strive for?"
Completely bewildered by what he heard, Qin Ange scratched his head in confusion, only to be met with a sharp glare from Ji Qingyu.
