When Su Yueran heard the doctor’s words, her eyes lit up. She touched her stomach and was secretly delighted.

Now that she was pregnant and it was Lin Qingyuan’s child, even for the sake of her stomach, Lin Qingyuan should not treat her so heartlessly anymore.

However, reality proved that no one could guess Lin Qingyuan’s thoughts.

Hearing the doctor’s report, Lin Qingyuan’s expression was unreadable. “I understand. Keep this baby for her first.”

“Yes.”

After the doctor left, Lin Qingyuan glanced at Su Yueran, who was looking happy. “Don’t be happy too early. Do you really think I care about a child??”

The smile on Su Yueran’s face froze. “Master.”

“If you can’t complete the task I gave you, not to mention you, even this child will serve those beggars outside,” Lin Qingyuan said with a calm expression, as if the wife and child in front of him could not stir up any emotions.

Su Yueran lowered her head silently. At this moment, other than being obedient, she had no other choice.

“Go out.” Lin Qingyuan waved his hand. “Don’t be an eyesore here.”

The older generation in China had a saying: Marry a virtuous wife and prosper for three generations.

Seeing Su Yueran, Lin Qingyuan felt that he was the negative example of this old saying.

Thinking of Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling, Lin Qingyuan could not hide his anger. If not for their trap, he would not have married Su Yueran.

Although Wei Jin was not as outstanding as Xia Wanyuan, she was also a rare woman. If he had married her back then, perhaps the situation today would have been different.

Thinking of Wei Jin, Lin Qingyuan made a call.

“Have you found the information I asked you to investigate?”

“Master, I found it. Wei Jin has already arrived in Linxi at the end of last month. She’s near the Wei family in Jiangnan now.”

“Continue to watch. If anything abnormal happens, come back and report to me immediately.”

“Yes.”

Wei Jin, Jiangnan Wei family,?Lin Qingyuan sat quietly and thought about the connection between the two.

It seemed that Xia Wanyuan’s appetite was quite big. She had reached out to Jiangnan.?

——

In the darkness of Beijing, there were strange clouds.

However, on the surface, it was still calm. The weather had been very good recently, and today was a rare sunny day.

However, the atmosphere in the manor was not that good.

“Uncle, why are you leaving again??” Xiao Bao reluctantly pulled Xia Yu’s clothes and pursed his lips, looking like he was about to cry.

Xia Yu stroked Xiao Bao’s head. “Uncle has to work. I’ll come back and visit you next time, okay?”

Xiao Bao’s eyes were filled with tears. “I’ll miss you.”

“Okay.” Xia Yu picked Xiao Bao up and kissed him hard on the cheek.

After coaxing Xiao Bao, Xia Yu looked at Xia Wanyuan. “Sister, I’ll leave then.”

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan nodded. “Be careful. Call us if you need anything.”

“Okay.” Xia Yu’s eyes turned slightly red. Although this was not the first time they had parted, every parting was very sad.

After bidding farewell to Xia Wanyuan and the rest, Xia Yu got into the car to the airport alone.

Actually, the days in Beijing were peaceful. Logically speaking, people who had just returned from the battlefield should cherish this environment very much.

After all, in those endless deserts, there was no water, no food, and they had to worry about the threat of cannonballs at all times.

However, only those who had really experienced it knew.

Jiang Yun’s body stiffened for a moment, but in the end, she did not resist and followed Lin Qingdai’s actions.

The moment Lin Qingdai returned, he went to meet Lin Qingyuan first.

Lin Qingdai was a very polite person. Although he and Lin Qingyuan were brothers, ever since Lin Qingyuan succeeded the family head position, Lin Qingdai had always called him the family head.

“Master, I’m preparing to hold an early wedding with Jiang Yun.”

Lin Qingyuan looked up at the joy in Lin Qingdai’s eyes that had yet to dissipate and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. “Back then, when I asked you to go on a blind date, you were quite resistant. Now, you look happy. It seems like you have a good relationship with the daughter of the Jiang family.”

Lin Qingdai’s expression was a little unnatural. “If there’s no problem, I’ll get someone to check the date now.”

Lin Qingyuan smiled slightly. “It’s a good thing that the two of you get married early. What can I say? Go and get someone to check the date. Just hold it as soon as possible.”

“Okay, thank you, Master.” Lin Qingdai was relieved that Lin Qingyuan did not object. After saying goodbye to Lin Qingyuan, he could not wait to contact the company that arranged the wedding venue.

Watching Lin Qingdai leave, a dark look flashed across Lin Qingyuan’s eyes.

Marriage??Lin Qingyuan shook his head slightly.

At this moment, Jiang Kui, who had been eavesdropping, walked out.

During this period of time, he had been troubled by the warehouse in Continent M. Jiang Kui seemed to have a layer of hostility.

Lin Qingyuan glanced at the impatient Jiang Kui. “I thought I was already a very heartless person. I didn’t expect CEO Jiang to be even worse than me.”

Jiang Kui gritted his teeth and the veins on his forehead bulged. “I don’t believe that Master Lin didn’t hear some recent rumors.”

Recently, Jiang Kui could clearly feel that Father Jiang was distrusting him more and more.

Especially after the incident in Continent M’s warehouse.

Jiang Yun had always been in charge of the warehouse in Continent M. She had founded it herself. Over the years, she had profited a lot for the Jiang Group and nothing had ever happened.

Jiang Kui’s eyes were red. He used all sorts of methods and finally snatched the power back from Jiang Yun.

However, less than two days after his smug days, something happened to the warehouse and it caused such a huge loss. The entire Jiang Group suffered a heavy blow in America’s market.

Father Jiang flew into a rage. Not only did he ask Jiang Kui to return all his power to Jiang Yun, but he even divided the main market in China to Jiang Yun.

In the past, Father Jiang would even bring Jiang Kui along to attend core-level meetings. Now that Jiang Kui had been completely dealt with, Father Jiang would bring Jiang Yun along wherever he went.

The outside world was spreading that the position of the head of the Jiang family might very well be passed on to Jiang Yun. Even Jiang Kui had such a premonition. How could he not panic?

“CEO Jiang, didn’t you think of a way?” Lin Qingyuan poured a cup of tea for Jiang Kui. “However, I didn’t expect you to bet with your sister’s life, CEO Jiang.”

On the first day Lin Qingyuan arrived in Beijing, Jiang Kui came looking for him.

In fact, according to Lin Qingyuan’s original idea, he wanted Lin Qingdai to marry Jiang Yun. This way, the Jiang family could be tied to the entire Lin family and support each other.

However, Jiang Kui suggested an idea.

He wanted to get rid of Jiang Yun in Jun Shiling’s name.

According to Father Jiang’s personality, if he knew that Jun Shiling had killed his daughter, Father Jiang, who already hated the Jun family, would definitely hand all his power to Jiang Kui and let him deal with the Jun family.

With Lin Qingdai’s infatuation with Jiang Yun, the Lin family would use Lin Qingdai as a gun and aimed it at the Jun family.

Such a community of interests connected by hatred could also be indestructible.

Most importantly, once Jiang Yun died, Jiang Kui would be the only legitimate successor of the Jiang family. Jiang Kui had promised Lin Qingyuan that as long as he became the head of the family, he would sign an alliance with the Lin family.

Anyway, it was not his sister who died. Lin Qingyuan had all the benefits, so he agreed readily.

Jiang Kui took a sip of tea. “Master Lin, you should know better than me that on the path of power, not to mention siblings, even parents and relatives have to be sacrificed sometimes.”

Lin Qingyuan smiled and did not speak. He only raised his cup and clinked it gently with Jiang Kui. “CEO Jiang, happy cooperation.”

On the other hand, Lin Qingdai left the Lin family and happily contacted many famous masters. In the end, he calculated that the 15th of next month was the best auspicious day of the year.

Lin Qingdai called Jiang Yun and told her the date. “What do you think? If you think it’s not good, we’ll choose again.”

“It’s nothing. It’s quite good.” Jiang Yun had no objections to the date. “We’ll do as you arranged.”

“Okay.”

The flower company in Beijing had recently smelled something very obvious.

In the past two days, the number of orders had soared. Not to mention Beijing, even the price of flowers in China was rising. Furthermore, the supply could not meet the demand. The goods that had just arrived were immediately swept away.
