Lin Xueer: "Brother-in-law, you're going to be a dad! Brother-in-law, you didn't know? My sister is pregnant!"

As Lin Xue'er spoke, she observed Lu Nancheng's expression, wanting to know whether Lu Nancheng knew about this matter or not.

The news of Lin Xiyao's pregnancy has spread to both the Lu and Lin families. The interests triggered by the marriage between the wealthy families have caused a huge uproar. Lin Xiyao has also officially declared war on them. Now that the war is in full swing, Lin Xue'er suddenly sensed something was wrong. Lu Nancheng seems to be unaware of this.

Lu Nancheng's mind went blank for a few seconds, and of course he didn't know anything.

He knows nothing.

He didn't know Lin Xiyao was pregnant.

In fact, neither he nor Lin Xiyao had any plans to get pregnant or have children, at least not at the moment.

He always tried to use protection, but Lin Xiyao said she was in her safe period and wouldn't get pregnant.

Is Lin Xiyao pregnant now?

Seeing Lin Xue'er's probing gaze, Lu Nancheng quickly snapped back to reality. He showed no emotional change, simply saying, "Do you get so interested whether I know or not?"

After saying that, Lu Nancheng walked inside, clearly not wanting to have any further dealings with Lin Xue'er.

Lin Xueer wasn't sure whether Lu Nancheng knew or not, but if she could sow discord between Lin Xiyao and Lu Nancheng, and ideally make Lu Nancheng dislike Lin Xiyao, that would be great.

Lin Xue'er quickly caught up, "Brother-in-law, do you think my sister really likes you?"

Lu Nancheng curled his lips into a half-smile and asked, "Does your sister not like me?"

Lin Xueer, "..."

Lu Nancheng is a man born into a position of power, a chosen one. Every word he speaks is watertight, neither revealing the answer nor allowing anyone to guess his thoughts, making him extremely mysterious and profound.

Lin Xue'er could only say, "Brother-in-law, you and my sister are in an arranged marriage between wealthy families. Aren't you curious about how much sincerity there is in such an arrangement? Don't you want to know whether my sister likes you or not?"

Lin Xue'er glanced at Lu Nancheng and continued, "Brother-in-law, I'm going to go find my sister first. I'll ask her if she likes you or not. If you want to know the answer, you can listen in from outside the door!"

After saying that, Lin Xue'er didn't wait for Lu Nancheng's reaction and went straight inside to find Lin Xiyao.

Lin Xiyao was still busy designing in the office. She was supposed to leave work, but Lu Nancheng said he would come to pick her up, so she was waiting for Lu Nancheng while she continued designing.

Soon the office door was pushed open, and someone walked in.

Lin Xiyao looked up, "Lu Nancheng... Lin Xue'er, is that you?"

Lin Xiyao didn't expect Lin Xue'er to come looking for her. No, to be precise, she knew Lin Xue'er would definitely come looking for her, but she didn't know Lin Xue'er would come here to find her.

Lin Xue'er walked in. "Sister, I came to see you. I haven't seen you for many days."

Lin Xiyao's expression was indifferent. "You're not welcome here. Are you planning to leave on your own, or should I have the security guards kick you out?"

Lin Xue'er disliked Lin Xiyao's aloofness the most. In the past, when she walked with Lin Xiyao, the wealthy women could tell at a glance that Lin Xiyao was the eldest daughter of the Lin family, born to the legal wife, while she was an illegitimate daughter who was not worthy of being discussed in the eyes of those wealthy women.

In short, Lin Xiyao completely overshadowed her; wherever Lin Xiyao was, she was just a supporting character.

Lin Xue'er said, "Sister, please don't send me away. I know you're pregnant, and I came here especially to congratulate you!"

Lin Xiyao curled her red lips slightly, "I've received your congratulations, you can leave now!"

Lin Xueer said, "Sister, to be honest, I really didn't expect you to be pregnant! I had someone check, and it turns out that you and your husband haven't consummated your marriage in the past three years. Your husband has no feelings for you, and you don't like him either, so you're just a couple in name only!"

Lin Xiyao raised an eyebrow. "What do you want to say?"

Lin Xue'er stepped forward. "Sister, you don't like your brother-in-law at all, do you? Three years ago, Grandpa forced you into an arranged marriage with him. Three years later, the Lu family patriarch and Grandpa put pressure on you to get pregnant as soon as possible! The Lu family patriarch and Grandpa both promised you that as long as you get pregnant, they would never let me enter the Lin family or touch the Lin Group! It was under this double pressure that you chose to get pregnant!"

"But I didn't expect you to get pregnant so quickly! Sister, what tricks did you use to deceive your husband into having your child? You don't actually like your husband at all; he and even the child in your belly are just tools for you!"

Lin Xue'er voiced her guesses, then looked towards the door but did not see Lu Nancheng's figure.

She wasn't sure if Lu Nancheng had come to listen.

She prayed in her heart that Lu Nancheng would definitely come.

Lin Xiyao sneered, "Lin Xue'er, it seems you've planted quite a few spies around me. I won't answer a single question about you; I'll just keep you curious!"

Lin Xue'er's expression changed, "You!"

Lin Xiyao stood up. "Also, don't come looking for me again, or I'll call Grandpa! You know the consequences!"

Lin Xue'er immediately clenched her fists into fists. She knew that Old Master Lin was Lin Xiyao's biggest backer, and the reason he became a backer was because of Lu Nancheng.

If Lu Nancheng stops wanting Lin Xiyao, everything will be resolved.

Lin Xue'er said with a dark expression, "Sister, I'm leaving now!"

After saying that, Lin Xue'er walked out.

There was no one outside the door, and Lu Nancheng was nowhere to be seen.

Did Lu Nancheng really not come to listen?

Lin Xue'er stamped her foot and had no choice but to leave.

Lin Xiyao didn't want to see Lin Xue'er at all. She put away all the design drawings, but she still hadn't seen Lu Nancheng.

Why hasn't he come yet?

Lin Xiyao took out her phone and dialed Lu Nancheng's number.

The phone rang softly once before being answered slowly, and Lu Nancheng's deep, magnetic voice came through, "Hello."

Lin Xiyao smiled and said, "President Lu, weren't you supposed to pick me up from get off work? Why aren't you here yet?"

Lu Nancheng: "I've been here for a while."

Lin Xiyao paused, "You're here?"

Lu Nancheng, "Turn around."

Lin Xiyao turned around and saw Lu Nancheng walking in.

Lin Xiyao's eyelashes trembled as she asked, "When did you arrive?"

Lu Nancheng held the phone to his ear and looked at her calmly, saying, "I came with Lin Xue'er."

what?

Lin Xiyao's expression changed. "So you heard what Lin Xue'er and I were saying just now?"

Lu Nancheng put down his phone, took long strides, and approached her. "You two talked a lot. Which question are you asking?"
