Lihua opened her the next morning and let out a sigh. She hasn't had a good sleep since the last two nights. She looked at Qingqing, who was sleeping beside her near her belly.
Lu Bojing poked her shoulder. "Are you not feeling well?" He asked, feeling anxious and uncertain.
She shook her head. "I am fine."
He pursed his lips. "Your eyes look tired. You shouldn't do this to yourself. Good sleep is important for your child's health too."
She quickly said, "Of course. It's just…"
From the other bed, Zhao Weisheng smiled. "He is right. As for our situation, you shouldn't worry about it. Wei will rescue you for sure. No matter how much ti it takes, everything will be fine once again."
Lihua smiled back. "Grandpa is the best!"
Looking at two beautiful faces in the morning is enough to make my morning rry.
Lu Bojing bead seeing her cheered up again which shot an arrow straight at her heart.
The sa maid knocked on the door and stepped inside.
"Miss. Young master wants you and the young man with you to co to the breakfast table."
Lihua's face darkened.
Breakfast? With that monster?
"No," she coldly looked away.
"Miss…"
"Tell him I am not interested in having als with monsters."
The maid said, "Miss, young master wants you to co at any cost, or he would not let young master Ru to eat."
She widened her eyes. "What!?"
Zhao Weisheng narrowed his eyes.
Lihua clenched her jaw. "How much lower does he want to stoop? He wants to keep his own son hungry? How can he be so heartless even for his son!?"
She shut her eyes and tried to calm down. Lu Bojing said, "Let's go. We cannot let the c-child suffer because of us."
"Yes."
Zhao Weisheng nodded too.
Qingqing jumped into Lu Bojing's arms and harrumphed.
Don't dare to leave this Queen behind!

*BANG*
Jiang Zhen raised his brow, seeing Lihua hit her fist on the table. "What a way to start such a lovely morning."
Lihua's face was livid with anger. "Do you have even a little bit of sha left!? What kind of a father are you to threaten your son to go hungry!"
Jiang Hua trembled with fright. She was relieved to see Lihua and Lu Bojing, or Ruru would be forced to skip his breakfast. Her fingers curled into a fist, feeling pathetic at herself.
Jiang Zhen smiled. "As long as it serves my purpose. But you are right. Why should I punish my son when I have your family?"
She froze.
"Fai, Ruiling, Lanying, Li, Aunt Yubi, Xiurang and Ninghong, Uncle Weizhe and Weiyuan, Old Madam Xiuying...oh and my most favorite toy - Jiang Wei! I have so many people to threaten, yet I use my child. Tsk. Not fair at all, indeed."
Lihua wished to scratch his smirk off his face. As if Qingqing understood her, she narrowed her eyes.
*ow*
Should I do it? My claws are itching to tear sothing off. His ugly skin is just perfect~
"So yeah. Next ti, I will definitely use one of your lovable family mbers. Now sit and let's have breakfast."
"Go to hell! As if I will eat with you!"
"Well then let's choose the first target of the day," he laughed, "Hmmm, how about Aunt Xiurang? Let's see, what should I do with her?"
Lihua almost lunged at him to slap him, but Lu Bojing pulled her back. "He-he is just doing this to provoke you. It will be his victory if you react as he wants…"
Lihua had to agree. Jiang Zhen was just having his entertainnt. The more she gave into him, the more it was fun for him.
She grudgingly sat on the chair and so did Lu Bojing.
Jiang Zhen smiled. "That's better. Don't we look like a loving husband and wife having our morning breakfast like this?"
Lihua glanced at Jiang Hua and noticed her shifting uncomfortably in her chair.
She smiled, looking back at Jiang Zhen. "A husband and wife? Sure. I would warn you to be careful though. Don't you see the news? Nowadays, a lot of wives secretly poison their husbands to death. Many even stab them in their sleep. Poor husbands. They never know if they will be the next. So, they are careful not to offend their wives."
Lu Bojing almost choked on the water he was drinking. He openly gave her a thumbs up.
Jiang Zhen squinted his eyes. "You are getting more interesting day by day, Song Lihua. I like it."
Lihua rolled her eyes.
"By the way, apart from having our al, I called you for another important thing. You can bid goodbye to your friend Lu Bojing here."
Both of them sat alert.
Lihua suspiciously asked, "What do you an?"
"I an it's ti you congratulate . Do you want to hear good news? Yang Mingshen has agreed to support . Of course, he would since Wei is useless now. And you know Yangs. They don't support useless people."
She widened her eyes.
M-Mingshen and support Jiang Zhan?
"The condition for his support is to release his assistant, who I don't care about anyway."
Su Liao entered the hall and bowed. "Boss."
Jiang Zhen looked at Lu Bojing. "It's a pity I didn't get to punish my way, but it's a small price to pay for the Yang family's support."
Su Liao sneered at Lu Bojing. "Get up! I am here to take you back to the Yang mansion."
Lu Bojing vigorously shook his head. "I-I am not going! I will stay with Song Lihua…"
Lihua quickly whispered to him, "Bojing. Don't say stupid things. You should go back. You got dragged into this because of . Mingshen opened up a chance for you. You have to take it!"
Tears rimd in his eyes, and he shook his head again. "I won't l-leave your side...I will stay with you and protect you. I-It was the Boss's order only that I keep you safe until your child is born. I will follow the orders."
Su Liao gritted his teeth. "Don't waste ti. Get up!"
Lu Bojing tearfully glared at him. "I already said I-I am not coming with you. I will only co if Song Lihua is with too…"
Jiang Zhen chuckled. "That's impossible. Lihua won't go anywhere."
"Then I won't go anywhere e-either!"
