My Hubby Can’t Stop Pampering Me

Chapter 1309: Chapter 1302: Probing (4) Chapter 1309: Chapter 1302: Probing (4) Lu Weixi’s heart skipped a beat; she hurriedly forced a smile and corrected herself, “How could that be? I’ve just been a bit busy with work recently, plus a colleague is planning a birthday party for their child, and the thought just came to me out of nowhere.”

Lu’s mother glanced at her indifferently and then lowered her head to continue eating. “As long as you know. As long as the child’s father isn’t Qin Zhiyou, all is well. The marriage is already over; why dwell on it? A good horse doesn’t turn back. Besides, he has so many romantic troubles, and his family is such a mess. Are you foolish to still consider jumping into that pit of fire? I saw the news yesterday. There are already reports about your separation and divorce negotiations; it must be Qin Zhiyou trying to disassociate himself from you. Don’t do anything stupid.”

The news on Qin Zhiyou’s end was from when Lu Weixi had firmly decided to have an abortion, and he had promised her they would gradually go public with the divorce. After she decided to keep the baby today, he was supposed to instruct Secretary Wang to handle the matter, but being trapped at Lu’s Family home, he had been delayed.

Lu Weixi lowered her head and hummed a couple of acknowledges, poking at the vegetables in her bowl with her chopsticks, finding the food tasteless.

After finishing the hotpot, it had already gotten dark. Lu Weixi didn’t want her mother to overexert herself, so she usually did the dishwashing. Lu’s mother just sat in the living room, watching television with the remote control in hand. Knowing her mother was in the living room, Qin Zhiyou couldn’t leave either, and he hadn’t even had his dinner yet. After Lu Weixi finished cleaning up, she brought a few packets of snacks in, “Mom, I have to work in a little bit, maybe have a meeting or something. Just call me if you need anything.”

Lu’s mother didn’t respond, her eyes still fixed on the television. Lu Weixi, holding the snacks, walked in and saw Qin Zhiyou lying on the bed on his side, comfortably using his phone.

Lu Weixi was speechless. After setting down the snacks, he added, “I want some water.”

What could she do? She had to go out again to pour it for him. Upon returning to the room, not being able to hold back her frustration, she took the first sip herself before turning the cup around and handing it to Qin Zhiyou.

With a smile brimming with delight, Qin Zhiyou took it, then turned the cup to the side she had just drunk from and took a sip.

This man really was…

Right after he finished drinking, Qin Zhiyou casually placed the cup aside and grabbed Lu Weixi’s hand, giving it a gentle tug.

Wei Hui tried to pull away, but Qin Zhiyou softly warned, “Be careful of your stomach.” Startled, she didn’t struggle, and he immediately pulled her to sit beside him on the bed, circling his arms around her from behind.

Wei Hui still wanted to push him away, but Qin Zhiyou had already rested his head on her shoulder. “I just heard your conversation.”

Lu Weixi froze for a moment.

“Whenever you say it’s the right time, I’ll show up. I won’t press you as long as your mother doesn’t relent. I’ve been thinking, my family situation really is chaotic, and I also need to consider whether Cai Yiren will be jealous once she finds out you’re having a child, and if she might harm you in some way. You might as well continue living here, or you could move to the West Mountain villa, farther from the old mansion. Even if we’re to remarry, we must keep it low-key and focus on delivering the baby safely. Some people are better left undisturbed.”

Lu Weixi nodded again. Cai Yiren was crazy; she had used the child in her own womb to frame her, and now she couldn’t have the child herself, who knows what she might do.

Qin Zhiyou wanted to avoid startling anyone who might mean her harm.

With Lu’s mother staying in the living room, Qin Zhiyou could only leave when she went to rest. Finally, at ten o’clock at night, after Lu’s mother finished washing up, Qin Zhiyou quickly made his escape.

He still didn’t want to leave, “I’ll come to pick you up for work tomorrow.”

“Just go, hurry.” Lu Weixi quickly ushered him out of the door, and right at that moment…
