Time Travel: Conditional Wealth

Night usually marks the beginning of the hunt.

Grandpa Lu’s birthday party was scheduled for the evening, but many people had already arrived early, and the gifts were so numerous that the family couldn’t receive them all.

Everyone in the circle knows that it is ostensibly Mr. Lu’s birthday party, but in fact it is to solemnly introduce the third young lady of the Lu family to them. You want to ask, wouldn’t it be known to the world if they hold a wedding?

No, she is pregnant, and it is said that she is having triplets, which will be the only great-grandchildren of the Lu family in this generation.

The eldest son is a soldier. He said he didn’t want to get married for fear of delaying the other party, so he stayed alone in his empty room every night.

The second young master is a policeman. He had a fiancée before, but the relationship ended for unknown reasons and he never looked for another one after that. When asked, he said that the responsibility of carrying on the family line should be given to the third young master.

Who is the third brother? He is today's male protagonist - Lu Jinan.

Where there is a male protagonist, there must be a female protagonist, and that is his wife - He Xi.

If Mr. Lu hadn't announced this matter at his birthday party, probably no one would care about He Xi's identity.

Coincidentally, He Xi didn't care about their opinions. He Xi's goal was to steal other people's jobs and leave them with no food to eat.

The daughters of wealthy families and young masters gathered in groups of three or four to discuss topics that interested them.

Suddenly my attention was attracted by a couple coming down the stairs. Their good looks were eye-catching.

Two people were seen walking down the stairs slowly. The girl was wearing a burgundy long-sleeved dress with a high waist design that cleverly covered her pregnant belly and showed off her graceful figure.

The hem of the dress is made of champagne-colored mesh, which is light and thin and will not weigh down the pregnant belly at all. The length is just to the ground, perfect for wearing with thick-heeled shoes.

The most eye-catching thing is He Xi's face, which is exquisite and perfect, with skin so white that it seems to be glowing, and the faintly visible pregnant belly adds to her feminine charm.

Tao Xing has never thought that He Xi has anything to show for herself, but given the impression she has left on people time and time again with her beauty, she has to admit that He Xi does look... okay.

He Xi and Lu Jinan followed behind Grandpa Lu, attracting the gaze and attention of the entire audience. Many people sighed that it seems that the country's climate and soil are the key to beauty.

There were many rich kids at the scene. With Grandpa Lu's introduction, many people started talking to her. He Xi took Lu Jinan's arm and stood next to the small dessert. He strictly restricted her sweets, so He Xi boldly chose the food.

"Mr. Lu, you are so lucky. You will become a father as soon as you get married."

Lu Jinan stared at He Xi's hand, afraid that he would not be able to stop her from cheating again. He smiled and said, "There is no other way. I can't keep my wife like this."

The other party laughed when he heard this: "I didn't expect that the aloof Third Young Master would be so humble."

How could he not be aloof? He picked any girl in Beijing, but he didn't like any of them. Instead, he was interested in the granddaughter of Mr. Lu's orderly. As a result, the birthday party that year was quite unpleasant.

Another person came over and raised the wine glass in his hand to Lu Jinan: "You are the youngest and the fastest, how many children do you plan to have?"

Lu Jinan took a sip of wine, lowered his head and said softly to He Xi who was still struggling with the sweets: "They are all my childhood friends. Let me introduce you to them. Xie Nanzhou, Liang Shimu, Gong Cenzhi, Fu Xiangheng, and Yang Qingyou."

The people whose names were called raised their wine glasses to He Xi one by one, with smiles on their faces.

"Yeah." He Xi retracted her gaze and greeted them, "Hello, I'm He Xi, an expectant mother."

"Expectant mother?"

Fresh vocabulary.

Several people presented their wedding gifts to them one after another: "When will your banquet be held?"

He Xi looked down at her pregnant belly and said, "Originally it was spring or autumn when it was neither hot nor cold. Now, it depends on my mood."

Lu Jinan accused He Xi in a gentle tone: "Wife, are you not going to give me a name? What can't I show you? Can't I try to change it?"

Suddenly, with a "pop" sound, Liang Shimu put the wine glass on the table and said, "I know you two are in love, but I didn't know you were so disgusting. It's just a marriage. Wait until the day of my wedding and I'll choke you to death."

Lu Jinan glanced at him with disdain and raised his eyebrows: "Your family's business will only grow bigger in the future. The probability that your daughter-in-law is a marriage of convenience is rising sharply. Is this true love?"

He Xi secretly ate a piece of sweets and thought of the plots of various novels: "I think the probability of getting married first and falling in love later is higher. Be nice to others in the early stage to avoid chasing your wife to the crematorium later."

"Chasing wife to the crematorium?"

"Xi'er." Mother Lu called He Xi over.

He Xi looked at Lu Jinan: "Mom called me, you two should reminisce about the past."

He Xi walked to the rest area and sat obediently next to Lu's mother. The rich ladies and the ladies in the political circle began to chat about her belly.

He Xi is not good at socializing, but she is definitely a sweet talker. As soon as I sat down, I smelled the scent of rouge and powder. This is how it is among women.

Several ladies laughed and said, "What sister? I dare not call you sister. You are thin and it must be very hard to be pregnant."

Fortunately, Lu Jinan and everyone took good care of her. Now she is a pampered flower in a greenhouse and she doesn’t know how happy she is.

After several exchanges, the ladies were surprised to find that although He Xi spoke little, you would be able to tell what he meant as long as you started communicating.

She was polite and tactful in her behavior. She was able to handle their tricky questions with ease and they even asked her a lot of questions.

As the communication deepened, more and more ladies came to sit in the lounge area and secretly looked at He Xi. They praised him with their mouths, but there was a bit of contempt in their eyes.

Her background alone was enough for the ladies to laugh at her.

He Xi discovered that the jewelry these ladies wore was no longer limited to traditional gold, silver and jade, but had begun to include jewelry, diamonds and the like.

She would not take the initiative to interrupt the ladies' words, but was more focused on the sweet snacks. She knew that Lu Jinan was watching her not far away, so she had to eat quickly before he got up to grab the snacks.

He Xi secretly put on a pure red diamond ring on her hand, and inadvertently adjusted the position of the ring, which was seen by Mrs. Yang who was also wearing a diamond.

Mrs. Yang asked curiously, "Xi girl's diamond ring is nice."

He Xi took off the ring and handed it to the other party: "Mrs. Yang has good taste, this one is only worth a few million."

Mrs. Yang's breath hitched. It was only a few million. How could she say it was just a few hundred yuan? She looked at it carefully and it didn't look like a fake. It seemed that they really made money.

Because of a diamond ring, the ladies all showed friendly expressions to He Xi and said they wanted to do business with He Xi.

Xie Nanzhou looked at He Xi who was doing well over there and smiled: "Lu Jinan, I finally understand your sense of crisis. She is too rich. I invested in your business. We can't just live off her."

Lu Jinan finished the last sip of wine in the glass and said with deep eyes: "The money I paid will not be refunded."

Xie Nanzhou then finished the wine in his glass as well, and said proudly: "We are brothers who grew up playing naked together, I believe you."

“I kept my pants on.”

"Definitely not worn when born."

"Are you wearing it?"

"No, but I admit I didn't wear any."
