Chapter 609: The Eve of the Storm

At first glance.

Yu Manman was startled and her stomach tightened.

But it seemed like an illusion. Lu Chengzhi then turned gentle and walked to the bedside. Looking at Yu Manman's frightened expression, he said softly, "What's wrong? Why are you suddenly sweating all over?"

Yu Manman stepped back subconsciously, not daring to get so close to Lu Chengzhi. She swallowed and said, "You..."

"Did I scare you? I was just thinking about something," Lu Chengzhi poured a glass of water for Yu Manman and coaxed her to drink it. "You are carrying my child, go to bed early."

Yu Manman grabbed the water cup, but her muscles were stiff. She looked at Lu Chengzhi in shock, "What were you thinking just now? I think there's something wrong with your eyes."

What kind of look is that?

Yu Manman couldn't quite put it into words, but it was that particularly terrifying look.

When she was with Lu Chengzhi before, Yu Manman always thought that she was the one who controlled Lu Chengzhi, and that he was a very easy person to control, and that she could make him be with her with just a little trick. But now, Yu Manman actually felt that her idea was wrong, and she could not see through Lu Chengzhi.

Think of this.

Yu Manman couldn't help asking, "Chengzhi, what happened during the few days you were away from home? Why did you become a different person?"

"Nothing happened, don't let your imagination run wild," Lu Chengzhi was still gentle and soft. After taking the cup away, he tucked her in, just like a perfect husband. He stroked Yu Manman's cheek and suddenly said, "Manman, do you know why I was with you in the first place?"

Lu Chengzhi's hands felt a little cold.

When it touched her facial skin, Yu Manman couldn't help but shudder, but her attention was diverted by Lu Chengzhi's words, and she subconsciously replied, "Why?"

Isn't it because of my own charm?

Yu Manman is quite good-looking, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to join the art troupe.

In fact, according to her conditions, she could find a young leader of the right age to marry, but she was proud and always wanted to find someone better than Lu Lanxu.

But if you want to be stronger than Lu Lanxu, that would be very difficult.

Those who have reached Lu Lanxu's position are already very old and already have a wife and children.

It’s not Yu Manman’s turn to choose at all.

The appearance of Lu Chengzhi made Yu Manman feel that he was easy to control, and on the other hand, Lu Chengzhi's qualifications were also very good, so it was possible that he would be promoted.

The two of them came together.

Yu Manman always thought that she did it on purpose, but why did Lu Chengzhi agree? Wasn't it because of her charm?

Seeing Yu Manman's doubtful look, Lu Chengzhi said softly, "Sometimes you are very much like my mother. She is the best person in the world to me, but it's a pity that the Lu family can't accommodate her."

You Rong?

Yu Manman had also found out a little about You Rong, so she couldn't help but ask, "What about mother? Where is she now? If you miss her, let's go see her tomorrow."

"Let's not talk about her. I'm a member of the Lu family. My mother did something wrong, so she was kicked out. I can't see her again. After all, I'm a member of the Lu family." Lu Chengzhi said this, not knowing whether he was talking to himself or to Yu Manman.

Yu Manman felt even more confused and felt that something was not right with Lu Chengzhi's current state.

She thought for a moment and placed Lu Chengzhi's hand on her belly. "If you can't see your mother, then think of me and our son."

Lu Chengzhi smiled gently, "Okay."

Seeing how gentle Lu Chengzhi was, Yu Manman finally let go of her previous panic. She leaned in his arms. Now this man was her support. For a moment, she wanted to live a good life with him and not worry about those trivial things.

She said, "If it really doesn't work, I..."

"What?" Lu Chengzhi looked down at her.

Yu Manman stopped talking abruptly and changed the subject, "It's nothing. I just mean that when I give birth to a son, our lives will be better. Grandpa will always be nicer to our son."

What she actually wanted to say was that if it really didn't work out, then just forget about this place. She didn't want to live in Lu's house anymore. She would follow Lu Chengzhi to the team. Life would be hard, but it would get better.

But it's at my mouth.

Yu Manman thought about the harsh environment and the hardships there, but in the Lu family, she was well fed and well provided for, and she didn't have to spend any money herself as there was a nanny to serve her.

Really going back is an idea that only someone whose brain has been kicked by a donkey would have.

Yu Manman woke up.

Hearing Yu Manman say this, Lu Chengzhi didn't say anything, just hummed, "Don't worry, it will get better."

Then he said, "You should not always be angry with your sister-in-law. She is actually a good person. She is having a hard time now, pregnant with two children, and her emotions cannot fluctuate too much. You should get along better with her and don't make the family restless."

Hearing this.

Yu Manman was a little surprised, "Why do you say that? I'm pregnant too."

Yu Manman, who originally felt a little guilty, now has no guilt at all.

There must be something wrong with Lu Chengzhi.

What a wimp.

It is obvious that he is afraid, so he is willing to push his wife out.

Lu Chengzhi said calmly: "The Lu family must be united. As the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, you naturally have to understand this rule. I don't care what you think in your heart, but you have to give me face. You'd better understand this point."

He even said, "If you continue to be like this and make the family unhappy, we are still young. You can just give up the baby in your belly and find someone else after you leave."

"Lu Chengzhi, you bastard!" Yu Manman hit him with a pillow.

Lu Chengzhi did not stop her and let her hit him. "That's all I have to say. If you are happy, do it. If you are not happy, leave."

Yu Manman couldn't accept this. She was in a rage for half the night and her eyes were red, but she gave in.

A woman has a soft spot when she has a child.

Yu Manman had never thought about having an abortion. In order to keep the child healthy and give birth to a son, she had made a lot of preparations and suffered a lot. Now that Lu Chengzhi, as her man, said this, what could she do.

So that the next few days.

Zhu Suisui discovered that Yu Manman would hide when she saw her and didn't dare to confront her head on.

This made Zhu Suisui a little puzzled.

As noisy as this couple was before, they are now as quiet as ever.

After spending another week together, the couple seemed to have really changed, and the Lu family felt much better.

This day.

Lu Lanxu received a notice that he needed to go through some formalities related to his transfer back to Sijiu City.

Of course he had to go.

Ye Qingcheng also called and asked Lu Lanxu to answer the call.

I just feel a little worried about Zhu Suisui being alone at home. If he leaves, he might come home later.

Zhu Suisui smiled and said, "I am not alone here. There are so many people at home. Don't worry. I am not a real baby. I just can't stand it by myself later."

Lu Lanxu said, "To me, you are just a little baby, maybe only four years old."

"Okay, okay, but I want to go to Dazhalan in the afternoon to get some medicine from Xiao Guanyu." Zhu Suisui had no choice but to say.

Lu Lanxu was worried, "How are you going to get there? I can't take you there. I don't trust you to take a car or a bicycle. How about asking Xiao Guanyu to take you there?"

That's not impossible.

Zhu Suisui knew that if she didn't agree, Lu Lanxu would definitely keep trying to persuade her.

Then you will have to listen to a lot of nagging.

Lu Lanxu felt relieved only after seeing Zhu Suisui call and ask Xiao Guanyu to take time out to deliver the medicine.

He said, "If there is anything, just call me."

"Got it." Zhu Suisui replied with a smile.

After the people left.

Zhu Suisui stayed in the house for a while, looking at reference books and writing her thesis. However, she was not very suitable for sitting for a long time and her waist started to ache after a while. Now it was the end of May and summer vacation was coming in a blink of an eye.

etc.

June.

Zhu Suisui felt like he had forgotten something.

But for a moment, I couldn't remember it.

While thinking about this, she found that she was actually hungry.

She touched her belly, her eyes showing some tenderness, "You two little guys are really good at eating. It's not long since you finished breakfast."

She was hungry all day long.

Zhu Suisui walked out, but found the house unusually quiet.

This made her a little confused.

She called out to Mama Liu a few times.

No one answered.

She looked at the time on the clock. It was not time for Mrs. Liu to buy groceries, so why was she not at home?

Today is a working day.

Jiao Shanyun and his wife and Lu Qingying have all gone out to work, and Lu Lanxu has also left. The only ones left are Grandpa Lu, Mother Liu, Yu Manman, Lu Chengzhi, and the guards at the gate.

Logically speaking, although the old man likes quietness, at this time, when he is practicing calligraphy in the study, his home should not be so quiet.

There seemed to be no sound at all.

Zhu Suisui felt something was strange, but she couldn't tell what it was. When she walked into the kitchen, she heard footsteps coming from behind her.
