Pampered By All In Different Planes

Chapter 59: Chapter 59 After Running Away, the Disabled Tycoon Stopped Pretending 21

It was at this moment that the sack over Su Zhiruan’s head was removed, and she got a full view of her surroundings.

She was now in a large hall, staring at two people in front of her: one with salt-and-pepper hair, wearing a traditional buttoned jacket and leaning on a cane; the other was Lu Ming, the young man who had just cornered her.

When Su Zhiruan retched, these two, as well as Lu Ming’s lackeys who were squeezing at the door not daring to come in, and the butler and the cooking auntie on the other side, everyone heard it.

“Scoundrel!!!”

After a brief silence, the old master Lu erupted with a huge scolding and slammed his dragon-head cane down on Lu Ming’s head furiously. Not content with one hit, he reached for the vase next to him to hit Lu Ming again but was stopped by the people around him. Only then did he start cursing terribly, “Lu Ming! I turn a blind eye to your usual misdeeds, but if you dare to harm her—or the eldest grandson of the Lu Family—I’ll skin you alive!”

Su Zhiruan was a bit confused about the situation. She had been dragged in here by Lu Ming’s lackeys, thrown on the floor with a sack over her head, and had only managed to wriggle out of the loosened sack during the process.

She tried to stand up, but before she could move, the auntie and the butler rushed over, clumsily helping her up, “Miss, are you alright? Sit on the sofa first.”

Su Zhiruan waved her hand, intending to say she was fine, just car sick.

However, at that moment, she felt her stomach churning and saw a trash can next to the living room. Breaking free from the butler and the auntie, she rushed toward the trash can to throw up, but ended up just retching.

The butler and the cooking auntie exchanged glances, then looked towards the old master Lu.

At this point, old master Lu couldn’t even concern himself with beating up Lu Ming anymore. Casting aside his cane, he walked over, his voice shaking. He had been a decisive leader of the Lu Group in his youth, and age had not changed that. However, he became tense and, seeing that Su Zhiruan seemed to have recovered, quickly called the butler and others to action, “What are you standing around for! Help Miss Su to the sofa! Butler, call the family doctor over!”

But before the butler could even leave, old master Lu immediately stopped him, “Butler, come back! Prepare the car, we are going straight to the hospital!”

“Mr. Lu, I’m not—” Su Zhiruan was beginning to understand why these people were in such a panic.

They must think she’s pregnant!

“Don’t worry, girl!” old master Lu was all action, holding the phone to call the hospital director, while threatening a cowering Lu Ming, “You, if anything happens to your brother’s child today, I’ll drive you out of the Lu Family on the spot!”

Lu Ming didn’t dare to let out a breath.

Seeing this, his lackeys scattered like startled birds.

Afterward, everyone in the Lu Family began to hustle about quickly, seeming very busy, and Su Zhiruan couldn’t even find a good opportunity to explain that her retching was due to motion sickness, not pregnancy.

It wasn’t until she was seated in the car that Su Zhiruan was able to speak with old master Lu.

“Mr. Lu, I am not pregnant; it was just car sickness,” Su Zhiruan never imagined, she would be sitting in a car with the legendary decisive former head of the Lu Family, old master Lu, in such circumstances.

Even though she was a person who could remain calm in the face of sudden changes, the current situation was truly beyond her imagination.

“Su girl, do you really think I wouldn’t know about what’s been going on between you and Lu Peijin, that lad?” old master Lu looked at her, growing more and more satisfied as he did. Sometimes, a person’s character can be seen from their appearance. Having lived so many years, almost ready to be buried, he looked at Su Zhiruan. The young lady was not old, but she possessed a maturity and temperament far beyond her peers, very serene, giving people a feeling of comfort just by being with her.

“Old Master Lu is well-informed.” Su Zhiruan wasn’t quite sure to what extent the old man understood her relationship with Lu Peijin.

Was it just the apparent sugar daddy relationship, or the actual contractual one?

Actually, when she signed the contract, Su Zhiruan had already made a rough plan for this system task. At that time, Lu Peijin and his secretary probably worried that she would cling to the Lu Family or the child to be born afterwards, which was why they included so many clauses in the contract.

But in fact, Su Zhiruan didn’t even want to have the slightest relationship with the Lu Family, let alone curry favor with the legendary old master.

“That kid Lu Peijin, he always refused the arranged marriages I set up for him; I didn’t expect that the first woman he would choose to take care of would be you,” Old Master Lu chatted leisurely with Su Zhiruan, as if a kind elder was inquiring about his junior’s life.

But as soon as these words came out, Su Zhiruan immediately realized that the old master probably only thought Lu Peijin was keeping her as a kept woman, and not that she would leave the Lu Family after giving birth to the child as per the contract.

“Since you know, there was no need to bring me to the hospital,” Su Zhiruan said, looking at the approaching hospital sign with a bit of resignation, “I’m very clear that I’m not pregnant.”

At this time, the Lu Family’s car had already arrived at the hospital.

And as soon as Old Master Lu spoke, the whole hospital was decked out, ready and waiting to receive them. @@novelbin@@

Su Zhiruan originally thought she would go through a check-up, confirm there was no child, and then put Old Master Lu’s mind at ease.

What she didn’t expect was that reality would slap her in the face so hard.

“Madam, according to the ultrasound and blood results, the fetus has been implanted for nearly a month!” The nurse handed several sheets to Su Zhiruan.

Su Zhiruan hadn’t expected that she was actually pregnant!

She subconsciously touched her stomach, setting the papers aside.

When Old Master Lu picked up the papers, his entire demeanor was one of surprise and joy, as if he had already seen the Lu Family’s child being born and calling him grandpa.

Su Zhiruan, not quite believing it, summoned the system that hadn’t appeared in a long time in her mind, “System, are you there?”

[I am here, what is it, host?]

“I’m pregnant?”

[Let me check, ah! Indeed, the Newbie Gift Package has started to take effect. You don’t have to worry, the Newbie Gift Package, just like in the previous world, won’t cause you any pregnancy or childbirth troubles!] The system spoke in a cheerful tone.

Su Zhiruan understood; she now had a child, meaning she was one step closer to completing the task. This seemed pretty good to her.

No wonder she hadn’t realized she was pregnant. Her period was delayed and she thought it was due to the recent stress from studying; she hadn’t expected it was because of pregnancy.

She suddenly became a little curious about what Lu Peijin’s expression would be once he found out she was pregnant.
