Lu Yanting stepped forward and blocked Su Xinyue's view with her body.

With her back to Su Xinyue, she glared fiercely at her brother: "Brother, why did you come out alone? Where's your wife?"

"She's sleeping."

Lu Yanxun gave a curt reply and walked straight to Su Xinyue.

“Yanxun…” Su Xinyue looked up at Lu Yanxun, her eyes red and she looked like she was about to cry.

Lu Yanxun glanced at Su Xinyue expressionlessly, his tone devoid of emotion: "If you have something to say, come out and say it."

Su Xinyue quickly stood up.

When Lu Yanting saw that the two of them were about to go outside to talk, she immediately became anxious.

"Brother! Sister-in-law is sleeping!" Lu Yanting warned through gritted teeth, "How could you take advantage of her sleeping to..."

Lu Yanxun turned around and calmly said to his younger sister, "She's the one who kicked me out."

"Huh? What?" Lu Yanting was stunned. "What?"

"Brother Yanxun just said that his wife kicked him out," Zhang Guihua said kindly.

While Lu Yanting was still in a daze, her brother and Su Xinyue had already walked out the door.

Zhang Guihua also wanted to go.

He had just stood up when Lu Yanwei stopped him.

Lu Yanwei said, "Sister Guihua, my brother and Sister Xiaoyue want to talk alone, so you'd better not disturb them."

Zhang Guihua smiled awkwardly and had no choice but to sit back down on the sofa.

Lu Yanwei stopped not only Zhang Guihua, but also her younger sister Lu Yanting.

"Why are you stopping me too?" Lu Yanting said angrily, "Move aside, I want to hear what they're talking about."

Lu Yanwei frowned disapprovingly: "What good will you do if you go there and cause trouble? You might as well go inside and see if your sister-in-law is really asleep."

Then, he lowered his voice to remind Lu Yanting, "Right now, our family's focus is on my sister-in-law. Everyone else has to take a backseat, including my brother. They've already gone out, and there's no way we can bring them back. Let's just ignore them."

Lu Yanting thought her sister's words made a lot of sense.

He immediately gave up on chasing after Lu Yanxun and Su Xinyue, and turned around to head straight for his brother and sister-in-law's room.

Jiang Zao slept well last night and is full of energy today.

Although Su Xinyue's unexpected incident occurred, it did not affect her mood at all.

If I had to pinpoint the impact, it would be that she was even happier.

When Lu Yanting pushed open the door, Jiang Zao was still wriggling on the bed, hugging her pillow.

She was twisting and turning happily, completely oblivious to the sound of the door opening.

Lu Yanting tiptoed closer to the inner room, peeking through the door frame like a thief.

When Lu Yanting saw Jiang Zao rolling around on the bed, she was shocked.

She thought Jiang Zao was rolling around in bed because of a stomachache.

Lu Yanting rushed into the house without a second thought.

"Sister-in-law?!" Lu Yanting asked anxiously, her heart pounding in her chest. "Sister-in-law, what's wrong? Is your stomach hurting again?"

"Sister-in-law, wait for me, I'm going to find my brother right now!"

After saying that, Lu Yanting turned and ran outside.

"Stop!" Before Jiang Zao could even react to who had entered the room, she shouted to stop the person before she could even think.

Lu Yanting slammed on the brakes and turned around abruptly: "Sister-in-law?"

Jiang Zao looked closely and realized it was her sister-in-law.

Why did she suddenly come to her room?

She must have seen her gushing over her crush just now, right?

Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Jiang Zao loosened her grip on the pillow and, supporting herself on the bed, tried to get up.

Lu Yanting strode forward and pressed the person back onto the bed.

"Sister-in-law, if your stomach hurts, don't move around, or it will hurt more. Lie down first, and I'll go get my brother to come and massage it for you."

After Lu Yanting finished speaking, she was about to leave again.

"Stop." Jiang Zao called out to her again, coughing dryly, "No need to call him, um, my stomach suddenly doesn't hurt anymore."

"Really?" Lu Yanting didn't believe it, her eyes fixed on Jiang Zao's stomach.

"Really." Jiang Zao generously lifted her clothes.

She touched her belly and patted it gently to show that, "Look, the baby is very well-behaved."

Lu Yanting examined Jiang Zao's stomach carefully and was only relieved after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it.

"Sister-in-law, my brother said you kicked him out, is that true?"

“It’s true.” Jiang Zao moved to the side and patted the edge of the bed. “Sit down and talk.”

Lu Yanting was a little flattered and didn't dare to sit down.

"I'll just stand here," Lu Yanting shook her head.

Jiang Zao said good-naturedly, "You stand there, it's tiring for my neck to talk to you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yanting sat down on the bed without saying a word.

"Thank you, sister-in-law, hehe." Lu Yanting chuckled a little shyly.

From the moment she entered, Lu Yanting was constantly worried that Jiang Zao would get angry at her.

She came in reluctantly.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Zao not only didn't get angry, but also let her sit on the bed.

This kind of treatment was something we never received before.

She used to be unable to even get into this room.

"Don't mention it." Jiang Zao looked at Lu Yanting with a smile. "We're all family. After the baby is born, I'll need your help to take care of it."

"Let me take care of her?" Lu Yanting's eyes lit up instantly.

Jiang Zao only heard Lu Yanting's question and didn't see her bright eyes, so she thought Lu Yanting was unwilling.

Holding Lu Yanting's hand with a fawning expression, Jiang Zao's smile was even more sincere than before.

“Tingting, it’s all my fault for having a bad temper in the past, which caused you and Weiwei a lot of grievances. But every time I lost my temper, it wasn’t my intention. It was because the baby was making me fuss in my belly and I was in so much pain that I acted that way. These two children are very naughty, and I can’t control them by myself. Every time I’m exhausted, I’m naturally in a bad mood. I don’t ask you to forgive me, I just hope that the three of us, sister-in-law and I, can get along peacefully in the future.”

Hearing Jiang Zao's gentle voice as she spoke, Lu Yanting's heart softened instantly.

She also took Jiang Zao's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, we all understand. I finally know now that it's my brother who has made you suffer all this time. It's my brother and the child who have turned you into this. I really understand you."

"Thank you, Tingting," Jiang Zao said sincerely, then brought up the topic of childcare, "After the baby is born, will you help me take care of it?"

This was Jiang Zao's first time trying to get her sister-in-law to take care of the child, and she didn't know if she would succeed.

I was a little nervous when I said it.

What Jiang Zao didn't know was that she didn't need to coax Lu Yanting at all; even if she didn't ask Lu Yanting to help take care of the child, Lu Yanting insisted on doing so anyway.

Since Jiang Zao became pregnant, every time Lu Yanting saw her belly, all she could think about was taking care of her nephew in the future.

However, she had a terrible relationship with Jiang Zao's sister-in-law and never dared to reveal any intention to take care of the child, for fear that Jiang Zao would threaten her by not letting her take care of the child.

But now, Jiang Zao has actually offered to help her take care of the child.

Lu Yanting was surprised by this wonderful opportunity and readily agreed, "Great! I love taking care of kids! I can do it too!"

In fact, Lu Yanting didn't know how to take care of children at all, but she still confidently said that she could.
