I can't laugh~
Will he marry Feng Xixuan?
No way! But compared to Lu Linghong, Feng Xixuan is indeed a better choice. At most, I'll feel a little pressure, but it won't make others feel guilty.
Feng Xixuan's core family members... oh, nobody's on top of him.
……………………
Gong Chengjue is abroad, but his mind is entirely on China. He has people keeping an eye on the capital and City A, especially the Su Group!
Of course, the deadline should be set immediately if news of Su Ziqing's engagement or similar announcements occurs.
However, it is unclear whether Su Ziqing took his words to heart or if, as Luo Jinhan guessed, Miss Su might not even know who the father of her child is.
When Luo Jinhan voiced this guess, he was met with a glare from Gong Chengjue.
Under his intimidation, Luo Jinhan said that Miss Su seemed strong, but if she drank herself into oblivion, she might be harmed by someone with ulterior motives...
The person with ulterior motives is Lu Linghong, but Assistant Luo feels that it would be better if the child's father didn't know who he was than if it was Lu Linghong. Is that what Mr. Gong thinks?
Sigh, it's such an ostrich mentality, yet it's strangely somewhat therapeutic?
Actually, they probably think the child is Lu Linghong's, otherwise, why would they send people to keep an eye on the Lu family...?
No matter how complicated his feelings were, as long as there was no news of Su Ziqing's engagement, Assistant Luo felt that he had to keep an eye on things.
Day 3
Suddenly, news broke from the Lu family that Lu Linghong was getting engaged!
At this time, Gong Chengjue was still abroad. Upon hearing the news, Assistant Luo immediately reported it to Gong Chengjue.
Gong Chengjue, who was making preparations for his trip and adjusting his tie, suddenly frowned. "Are you sure?!"
So, child...
“But the person she’s engaged to isn’t Miss Su.” Assistant Luo paused for a while before continuing, as if on purpose.
Seeing Gong Chengjue's shattered expression, Assistant Luo swore that he absolutely did not mean to tease Gong Chengjue.
His first reaction upon hearing the news was, "Oh no, the child in Miss Su's belly isn't Lu Linghong's."
Whose is it?
Do you really not know the father of the child?
Gong Chengjue straightened his tie. "Oh? Who is it?"
The marriage that the Lu family proposed to Lu Linghong was in another city, not in the capital, and was a match between the Lu family and their social standing.
Gong Chengjue put on his coat, his long, slender fingers gently fastening the delicate buttons. He looked at Luo Jinhan and asked, "Why do you think this is happening?"
Luo Jinhan blinked. Why was this happening? Didn't Mr. Gong remind Mr. Lu?
"Mr. Gong, in that case, Miss Su's child... really isn't Lu Linghong's." They don't know who the father is, guessing is useless, so they can only use the process of elimination!

Lu Family
Lu Linghong was confined to his home by the Lu family. His father hired several bodyguards to guard the main gate, preventing Lu Linghong from leaving the house at all.
"I've really spoiled you too much." Mr. Lu felt like he had aged several years overnight.
He may not care about the woman's family, but!! His son actually wants to become a father by accident?!
This is insane!!
Previously, I thought Lu Beibei's retort to Su Ziqing, "I don't know if the child is my brother's," and Lu Linghong's admission that the child wasn't his, yet his desire to marry Su Ziqing...
That's absolutely unacceptable!! Not to mention that Gong Chengjue even 'greeted' him! If it were for his grandson, he would be fearless in going against the Gong family, but for some unknown child, Father Lu would never allow his son to go to such lengths.
Lu Linghong was already on the verge of losing his temper. "Then what do you want?"
"Well? From now on, your marriage will be decided by your family!" Mr. Lu was so angry that his liver ached.
Lu Linghong protested, "That's impossible!"
"You, you..." Mr. Lu was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood. Upon seeing this, Mrs. Lu exclaimed, "Husband!"
Lu Linghong was also startled, "Dad."
Lu Beibei even accused him, "Big brother, are you only satisfied when you've driven Dad to his death?"
"Take him to the hospital! Take him to the hospital right now!" Mrs. Lu was panicked and completely disoriented. Lu Linghong tried to get the keys, but Mr. Lu refused, "You stay home and don't go anywhere!!"
"dad……"
"Don't upset your father anymore, Ling Hong." Lu's mother helped Lu's father out of the house.
Only after the car left the Lu family home did Mr. Lu exhale and look at his wife, asking, "Was that convincing?"
"More real than pearls." Mother Lu sighed. If it weren't for this, Lu Linghong might still want to be a father by accident!
"Mommy, I'll go to City A with you." The Lu family knew that simply stopping Lu Linghong wouldn't work; Su Ziqing also needed to cooperate.
Thinking of Su Ziqing, Lu's mother's face turned slightly serious. "Hmm."
They even had to keep their trip to City A to see Su Ziqing a secret from Lu Linghong!
……………………
When Su Ziqing heard from her secretary at the company that Mrs. Lu was looking for her, she was quite surprised. After confirming that it was Lu Linghong's mother, she had someone bring her into the office.
Upon seeing Lu's mother, accompanied by Lu Beibei, Su Ziqing smiled slightly and offered her greetings.
Unlike her demure outfit that day, Su Ziqing's attire at the company was always clean and neat, making her look several years more mature than before.
"Miss Su, I apologize for disturbing you." Mrs. Lu maintained her composure, thinking of the girl who almost became her daughter-in-law, sighing.
Su Ziqing invited them to sit on the guest sofa, and her secretary brought in drinks.
Lu Beibei looked at Su Ziqing and apologized first. This was also the reason why Lu's mother brought her here, to try not to make enemies.
"I'm sorry, Miss Su. My attitude was bad that day. Please forgive me, considering that I was only concerned about my brother."
Su Ziqing smiled faintly, "Miss Lu is joking. I'm not angry about what happened that day."
In fact, if Lu Beibei hadn't suddenly returned home, she and Lu Linghong would probably have already discussed the details of their marriage, and she would be even more embarrassed now.
Because of the good attitude of Mr. and Mrs. Lu, Su Ziqing, as the deceiver, felt a lot of pressure.
"I wonder what brings you here, Madam Lu?" Su Ziqing tactfully addressed her as Madam Lu, rather than calling her "Auntie."
Lu's mother looked at Su Ziqing and said, "Miss Su, we hope you can help us persuade Ling Hong."
Su Ziqing looked at her silently.
“My dad was so angry with my older brother that he vomited blood and was hospitalized,” Lu Beibei said. “Miss Su, my brother insists on marrying you, but you…”
She didn't dare to say directly that the children weren't her older brother's, as he had already confessed to the family.
Su Ziqing picked up the milk in front of her, took a small sip, and then put it down. "Don't worry, Madam Lu, I will talk to Shi... Ling Hong about this."
Looking at her, Lu's mother said, "Ling Hong also said that you two have known each other for a long time, that you are his junior sister, Miss Su, and I personally like you very much too..."
But liking and accepting her as his daughter-in-law is another matter entirely.
More importantly, her relationship with Gong Chengjue cannot be explained in a single sentence. Does the Lu family really want to offend the Gong family for such an inexplicable matter?
