"I don’t know what I was thinking, Lu Jinyang said, "Gu Chen has now beco the Family Head and won’t be able to return for a while."
"Shall we go see them?"
Lu Jinyang shook his head, the Gu Family’s position overseas is akin to that of the Nangong Family in their country, their ho is filled with endless scheming.
"Sleep now, when Gu Chen calls next, I’ll let you talk to him."
With that, Xiao Qing didn’t continue to ask and gradually fell asleep on his body.

In the blink of an eye, it was Monday. Lu Jincheng did not go to Lu Jinyang’s office like last week, but returned to his own office.
There was only him in the office, no sign of Leng Shuangshuang. Lu Jincheng glanced at the ti, there was still one minute left until work started.
Leng Shuangshuang was always punctual; her absence at this ti was quite rare.
He walked to the desk and picked up the phone, dialed the personnel departnt’s extension, and then imdiately hung up before connecting. Sitting back in his chair, a trace of unease flashed in his eyes.
Lu Jincheng thought Leng Shuangshuang would return soon, but to his surprise, by noon, she hadn’t appeared.
He looked at her seat in silence for a mont, then took a key and left.
Fifteen minutes later, he appeared at Leng Shuangshuang’s apartnt.
The apartnt was empty, unusually quiet.
Lu Jincheng first searched around outside, didn’t see anyone, then stood by the door. After standing for a while without hearing any sounds from inside, he thought for a mont, turned the doorknob, and gently pushed the door open.
To his surprise, Leng Shuangshuang was not in the room either.
So where did she go?
Lu Jincheng didn’t notice how tightly his eyebrows were furrowed. He went inside, circled to the balcony, and then ca back, standing in front of her big bed.
The bedding was neatly folded, as if she hadn’t returned last night.
His gaze swept across the bed and then withdrew, sitting down on her bedhead.
Like other girls, Leng Shuangshuang liked pink, so the room was decorated with a girlish heart, even her bedside table and dressing table were in pink tones.
Lu Jincheng’s eyes suddenly stopped on sothing resembling a receipt on her dressing table. He paused, got up, and walked over.
It was a hospital receipt.
He suddenly rembered overhearing Lu Xinyun asking her a few days ago at ho, saying her stomach had issues. He looked at the specific examination items and found one was a blood test and another an ultrasound.
Lu Jincheng’s handso brows furrowed deeper. For stomach discomfort, shouldn’t it be an endoscopy? What’s an ultrasound for?
He put down the receipt, casually picked up the folded papers beside it.
An A4 paper was folded twice, and as he slowly opened it and read down, suddenly his pupils contracted sharply, and he couldn’t help but tremble.
Leng Shuangshuang was pregnant!
Moreover, according to the docunt, it’s already been three months.
Three months... isn’t that...
Lu Jincheng felt his breath becoming irregular; holding the A4 paper, he sat on the dressing stool and perused it carefully once more.
A minute...
Two minutes...
Three minutes passed, and he finally reacted.
He rose expressionless, refolded the A4 paper, placed it back in its original place, and left her ho.
In the afternoon, Leng Shuangshuang arrived late at the office and imdiately saw Lu Jincheng sitting inside. She was taken aback. Wasn’t Lu Jincheng supposed to be at Uncle Lu’s office?
She forced herself to calm down, walked to her seat, and sat down.
