With global currency devaluation, I'll wear these back and take my whole family flying!

Ever since Li Xiao's mother learned that Lin Biqi was pregnant with Li Xiao's child, she has been restless and anxious.

Other things aside, the relationship between the Lin family patriarch and her father was very good. If her father really took pity on the Lin family and wanted to give Lin Biqi to her son, she would never accept it.

Even though she had feelings for Lin Biqi, having watched her grow up, when it came to her son, she and Li Wanchang shared the same opinion: the Lin family's social standing was not high enough for the Li family's.

Moreover, using pregnancy as a means to climb the social ladder is indeed disgusting, like swallowing a fly.

"Honey, you need to give me some advice on this. I really don't know how to bring this up with Qiqi."

That night, before going to bed, Mrs. Li was still agonizing over the matter, hoping that Li Wanchang would quickly come up with a plan so she could get rid of Lin Biqi.

To avoid complications and things getting worse if things drag on, and if the pregnancy progresses and the belly gets bigger, this matter will become even more difficult to handle.

Li Wanchang's attention has been focused on the land he lost these past two days. He sent people to investigate the identity of the bidder that day, only to find that the other party had applied for identity encryption, and the information would be hidden and kept confidential by the real estate transaction center for three months.

This is a privilege reserved for individual bidders, generally designed to protect their identity information from being leaked immediately after the auction.

Li Wanchang used his connections, but no one wanted to make a mistake at this stage. Revealing the identity of an individual bidder during the confidentiality period would violate the "Land Transaction Law". The confidentiality period was only three months, and the identity of the individual bidder would naturally be made public in the relevant procedures at that time, and Li Wanchang would know it then.

So it's just a matter of time. Everyone advised Li Wanchang to wait and he would know when the encryption period ended.

"Have you confirmed it?" Li Wanchang asked, putting down his phone, his mood slightly irritated.

Mrs. Li pondered seriously, "I don't think Shen Ci would lie to me about something like this. Such a lie is easy to expose, so it's probably true. Besides, Qiqi's behavior was very strange when we were eating at home that day. I've thought about it, and it's very likely."

Upon hearing this, Li Wanchang frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "You've watched her grow up since she was little, so perhaps you can persuade her with your emotions and reason. Just say that she and Xiaozai are still young, and getting pregnant now won't do them any good. In short, just persuade her to have an abortion first, and you can give her some compensation later."

Just as Mrs. Li was about to speak, Li Wanchang's phone rang again. He quickly answered, "How is it? Have you found it?"

The next second his face darkened, indicating that the outcome on the other end of the phone was not good.

"I understand." Then she hung up the phone.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li swallowed back what she was about to say and changed the subject, asking, "Haven't you found out yet?"

"They're all keeping their mouths shut. After all, the other person's identity will be public in three months, and no one is willing to risk breaking the law to help me with something that will give me an answer soon."

"What about the surveillance footage? Can't you find anything on the footage either?"

“She was wearing large sunglasses that covered half her face.” Li Wanchang shook his head.

Mrs. Li didn't know much about the group's affairs, and simply said, "Then don't even think about it. The land already belongs to them. What good will it do even if you find out the truth?"

Li Wanchang snorted coldly: "I suspect someone is behind this, and I will find out who is behind it."

Mrs. Li pursed her lips silently upon hearing this, and said nothing more.

The next day, she invited Lin Biqi out for afternoon tea.

At a high-end open-air restaurant in Central, Lin Biqi, who had been looking dejected for the past few days, put on exquisite makeup for the date. However, despite this, her haggard appearance was still quite noticeable.

Upon seeing her, Mrs. Li immediately asked with concern, "Qiqi, why do you look so pale? Did you not get enough rest?"

To everyone's surprise, Lin Biqi gently shook her head and went straight to the point: "Auntie, I'm pregnant, and it's Li Xiao's child!"

Her sudden, unannounced confession completely stunned Mrs. Li. She froze, staring at Lin Biqi in shock, momentarily speechless.

She was still considering how to get to the point.

Lin Biqi smiled faintly and continued, "That day, Brother Li Xiao got drunk at the bar, and you were worried about me taking care of him, so this happened."

Mrs. Li snapped out of her daze and asked somewhat awkwardly, "You went to the hospital for a checkup, didn't you?"

Lin Biqi nodded.

"Qiqi, you and Xiaozai are still in college, you two..."

“Auntie, you don’t need to say these things to me. I know you won’t agree to me having this child.” Lin Biqi interrupted the other party, calmly opened the bag next to her, took out two forms from it and handed them to Mrs. Li: “I’ve aborted the child, you can rest assured.”

Mrs. Li took the list with some skepticism, but her anxiety subsided as soon as she saw its contents.

"You silly child, your aunt should go with you on such an important trip." She looked at Lin Biqi, her words tinged with concern and genuine affection.

"I will take responsibility for my own mistakes and resolve them myself, Auntie. I never intended to cause trouble for you and the Li family. This was an accident."

Mrs. Li felt increasingly guilty.

“Qiqi, this isn’t just your fault, Xiaozai is also responsible. Auntie will make it up to you.” As she spoke, a look of pity appeared in her eyes, but thinking of her son, she still had to ask, “But Auntie still wants to ask you for one thing. Can you keep this from Xiaozai?”

Before Lin Biqi could respond, Mrs. Li continued with a sorrowful expression, "He's been in very poor condition these days. I really don't want him to waste his energy on these things anymore. You can understand me, right?"

“Of course, Auntie, you watched me grow up, so naturally I feel sorry for you.” Lin Biqi nodded gently, showing no sign of resistance.

Mrs. Li was very pleased to see this; Qiqi was still as sensible as she was when she was a child.

She glanced at the chilled juice in front of her and quickly showed concern: "Auntie will get you a pot of hot fruit tea. You're weak and aggravated, and you're sensitive to cold."

"Auntie will buy you some good supplements later. You need to take good care of your health, okay?"

Lin Biqi nodded obediently as always: "I know, thank you, Auntie. I won't drink the hot tea. I'll ask you out for a chat when I feel better. I'll head back now."

As she spoke, she stood up and picked up her bag. Seeing this, Mrs. Li quickly said, "Shall I have the driver take you?"

"No need to trouble yourself, goodbye Auntie."

Lin Biqi bid him farewell with a calm expression, but her expression suddenly changed as she turned around, her eyes filled with gloom and ruthlessness, as if she had become a different person.
