Chapter 900: Chapter 896
This isn’t his first wedding, but... this is his first wedding in the real sense of the word!
There was one thing Yu Sangwan hadn’t gotten wrong. Actually, Gu Xiaoning was his true first love...
"Uh!" Gu Xiaoning suddenly froze, her expression changing.
Le Zhengsheng frowned. "What’s wrong?"
"I don’t know!" Gu Xiaoning was so nervous she didn’t dare move. "Asheng, there’s something burrowing around inside my skirt! It’s a huge lump! Is it a monster?"
Le Zhengsheng was baffled. "How could that be?"
He raised his hand, ready to lift the hem of Gu Xiaoning’s wedding dress...
Suddenly, the hem flipped up and Lu Qingming wriggled out with a big grin. "Haha! Asheng, Ningning!"
"Tsk!" Le Zhengsheng couldn’t help laughing. "You little rascal, what are you doing?"
Lu Qingming laughed loudly. "I crawled under Ningning’s skirt. Grandpa said... that way Ningning will definitely give birth to a big chubby boy just like me! Asheng, you’re gonna be a dad!"
"Hahaha..."
Below the stage, the whole crowd burst into happy laughter.
Down in the audience, Le Zhengpeng watched all this, nodding over and over... Wonderful, it was just wonderful.
Chapter 593 Facing It Together
The caregiver finished changing Susu’s clothes, and Yu Sangwan took a comb and started combing Susu’s hair.
"Mom." Lu Qingming rested his cheeks in his hands and watched from the side. "This is so weird."
"Hm?" Yu Sangwan was puzzled. "What is?"
"Tsk!" Lu Qingming frowned. "Sister Susu’s asleep, but her hair keeps getting longer! Except, she doesn’t put on any meat... Mom, if Susu keeps sleeping like this, will she become a little idiot when she wakes up?"
Yu Sangwan’s hand paused; he had hit right on her secret worry.
"Qingming."
"Ah?"
Yu Sangwan’s tone turned serious. "You have to treat Susu as your own little sister. No matter what she’s like in the future, you must love and protect her, understand?"
"Mm!" Lu Qingming nodded obediently. "I know!"
...
That night, Yu Sangwan was jolted awake by a phone call.
"Hello."
"Madam, a car is on its way to the Fu Family to pick you up and bring you to Guan Chao." It was Ou Guanshen.
Yu Sangwan’s heart tightened. The time had come... she was going over to Jinxuan’s side.
"Alright."
Doing her best to stay calm, Yu Sangwan changed her clothes and didn’t wake anyone in the house... When she got to the front gate, the car from Guan Chao had arrived. Lu Yuxuan got out of the car. He bowed slightly to her. "Sister-in-law."
Yu Sangwan’s delicate brows knit slightly. Yuxuan addressing her that way was its own kind of hint!
"My dad..." Yu Sangwan got into the car, unable to hold back the question.
Lu Yuxuan nodded. "Mr. Fu has arrived."
Yu Sangwan swallowed nervously. "I asked Jinxuan, but he’s always afraid I’ll worry. Yuxuan, tell me... how confident is your big brother really? Is he going to be okay?"
Lu Yuxuan didn’t answer directly. "Sister-in-law, we just have to trust big brother... As for how it will turn out, I’m afraid even he doesn’t know. Right now, what he needs most is your support."
Yu Sangwan’s heart sank. She said nothing more.
...
At Guan Chao Mansion, as soon as Yu Sangwan stepped through the foyer, she saw Fu Xianlin, whom she hadn’t seen in days!
"Dad!" Yu Sangwan rushed forward anxiously, looking him up and down. "Are you alright? Where have you been?"
"Sigh..." Fu Xianlin let out a breath. "Dad’s fine. I made Taotao worry."
"Dad..."
Lu Jinxuan had one hand in the pocket of his dress pants. "Dad, you and Taotao talk... I’ll step out for now."
"Alright."
In the flower hall, it was just Yu Sangwan and her father.
Fu Xianlin took his daughter’s hand. "Taotao, tell Dad—do you still love Lu Jinxuan?"
"..." Yu Sangwan was slightly stunned. "Dad, why are you asking me that?"
"Sigh." Fu Xianlin sighed. "While I was away, he was the one hiding me... But even with him hiding me, there were still plenty of people coming to bother me. Do you know why?"
Yu Sangwan’s brows knitted tightly and she nodded. She could more or less guess... In Z Country, Fu Xianlin was the top economic expert. No one had yet surpassed his knowledge and insight. Now Guan Chao was in turmoil, and everyone wanted to get their hands on Fu Xianlin!
"Taotao."
Fu Xianlin looked at his daughter. "It’s all the same to Dad who he works for. But Dad wants you to be happy! In all his life, Dad has only had one daughter, and he’s owed you so much in the past... As long as you say the word, Dad can set aside all the grudges between the Lu Family and the Fu Family."
"..." Yu Sangwan was flooded with emotion. "Dad."
Seeing her like this, Fu Xianlin understood. "Taotao, you still love him, don’t you?"
Yu Sangwan lowered her eyes and nodded.
"Then..." Fu Xianlin still didn’t feel at ease. "Is he good to you? I heard that not long ago, he was planning to form an alliance by marriage with the Qin Family..."
"Dad!" Yu Sangwan shook her head in a hurry. "It wasn’t like that! Jinxuan had his own plans; he has never abandoned me!"
His daughter was so sure that Fu Xianlin wasn’t surprised. "Good, Dad understands... The development plan in Dad’s hands will be left to Jinxuan!"
Yu Sangwan’s eyes burned hot. "Dad! Thank you."
Fu Xianlin patted his daughter’s hand. "We’re family, don’t say things like that... Jinxuan is my son-in-law!"
Outside the flower hall, Lu Jinxuan was standing tall.
"Mr. President, Madam has arrived... Looks like there’s no problem on Mr. Fu’s side anymore."
Lu Jinxuan nodded slightly. "Get ready to connect with the Cabinet."
"...Yes, sir!"
The so-called call with the Cabinet was for Lu Jinxuan to appear together with his wife, Yu Sangwan.
The Cabinet had to be given an explanation about the true identity of the much-discussed Lu Jinxuan.
Yu Sangwan’s body was getting heavier. She got up, changed her clothes, and pressed her hand tightly over her heart.
Lu Jinxuan steadied her. "Taotao, don’t be nervous... I’m here for everything. All you have to do is sit by my side."
"Mm." Yu Sangwan nodded, but not nervous? How was that possible?
They walked together and arrived at the Cabinet’s conference hall.
The doors opened before them, and Yu Sangwan felt that... in that instant, all sound vanished. All she saw was a frozen image: the gazes of the Cabinet members landing on her, cold and devoid of warmth, with not a single thought there she could read.
Lu Jinxuan supported her as they walked in. "Careful, there’s a step."
Yu Sangwan looked up at him and pressed her lips into a faint smile.
This scene fell into the eyes of the Cabinet members... and they immediately exchanged glances.
Lu Jinxuan and Yu Sangwan took their seats, and he swept his gaze in a circle around the room.
Someone stood up to ask, "Mr. President, can you explain the relationship between you and the lady by your side?"
Lu Jinxuan was silent for a moment, then curved his lips. "Just as you all suspect—Ms. Lu Yu Sangwan is the wife of this Cabinet’s presiding officer."
His words stunned the hall...
Before the crowd could erupt into chaos, Le Zhengsheng stood up. "Mr. President, you have remained unmarried to this day. Can you explain how it is that you now have a wife?"
"Heh." Lu Jinxuan smiled faintly. "You don’t need to rack your brains, and there’s no need to propose DNA tests for my two children. To protect my wife and children, I’m going to make this clear to everyone right now: Lu Qingming, and the child currently in my wife’s belly, share the same father and mother, without a doubt."
As soon as he spoke, the hall exploded in an uproar!
"So, Mr. President, you really did use your uncle’s identity as a stand-in!"
"Mr. President, how do you explain this matter?"
Lu Jinxuan’s lips quirked. "There’s nothing to explain. I am indeed Lu Jinxuan. What matters now... is the attitude of the Cabinet members."
The hall was shocked all over again. Lu Jinxuan was just going to dump the problem back on the Cabinet like that?
Le Zhengsheng’s lips curved; he shook his head with a quiet chuckle. Those old foxes in the Cabinet had miscalculated! They’d planned to threaten Lu Jinxuan, but after all this back-and-forth... in the end, they’d been outmaneuvered by him!
Lu Jinxuan smiled calmly and swept his gaze over the room. "Gentlemen, I have nothing more to say about this matter... If you demand that I step down, I will have no objections. Until the Cabinet reaches a resolution, I will suspend the exercise of all my actual powers."
He stood up, took Yu Sangwan’s hand, and gave the Cabinet members a slight bow. "I am deeply sorry."
