Chapter 371 Gentle Destruction

In the Dingya Villas—

After Lu Boyan left this morning, Su Jianan suddenly vomited once, but she stopped Aunt Liu from telling Lu Boyan about it. People in the whole villa were worried all day, and Uncle Xu even called the hospital and asked the doctor to stand by.

Su Jianan said several times that they were overreacting, but there were still people watching her carefully all day.

Lu Boyan came back at night and heard about it for the first time.

He frowned and walked over to Su Jianan, saying, “Why didn’t you have Aunt Liu call me?”

“It’s normal for a pregnant person to spit up once in a while. This is called a pregnant reaction.” Su Jianan touched Lu Boyan’s forehead, “It’s not like I need to get injections like before, so why did I have to call you?”

Su Jianan didn’t say so, but Lu Boyan guessed that she didn’t want to interfere with his work, and he sighed helplessly. “Jianan, you can be unruly with me.”

Being unruly, no longer making herself aggrieved and thinking about for him all the time…

“Not now.” Su Jianan peeled an orange, fed a piece to Lu Boyan, and said while eating, “I know you’ve been busy today. Besides, I’ve been through it several days before. It’s just a normal pregnancy reaction in the morning, so what’s the fuss?”

Lu Boyan was about to say that he had married a good wife, and Su Jianan suddenly said, “But since you want me to be willful… Go up and help me fill up the bathtub, I want to take a bath!”

Su Jianan was afraid of the cold. The water temperature adjusted by Lu Boyan was quite high, and he set a constant temperature before going downstairs. He lifted Su Jianan from the sofa and didn’t put her down until she was in the bathroom.

Su Jianan checked to see if something was missing, then gave Lu Boyan an affirmative look. “Your service is good, you can go.”

She really regarded him as a waiter. But Lu Boyan enjoyed such a small taste of fun, telling Su Jianan to be careful and not locking the bathroom door after he left.

Su Jianan liked to spend time in the bathtub when she was not pregnant, but after pregnancy, she never dared to take a bath for more than 20 minutes. Today was also the same. When she was about to get out of the tub with one foot, she almost slipped and immediately supported herself with the sink.

In fact, even if she didn’t support herself with the sink, she wouldn’t have fallen.

But before she stood still, the bathroom door was pushed open, and Lu Boyan came in looking nervous, “What’s wrong?”

Su Jianan was stunned and her face instantly blushed, and she turned her back quickly. “It’s okay, I just slipped a bit.” Remembering that she was naked at the moment, the more she said, the more unnatural her voice got. “Get out.”

How could Lu Boyan leave so easily? So he took a bathrobe and wrapped Su Jianan up, and took her out of the bathroom. “Tomorrow I’ll have the designer who is doing the baby’s room make the floor for slip-resistant.”

“The floor is fine, it was just me being careless.” Su Jianan grasped the robe’s placket and looked at Lu Boyan. “You have been at the door all the time?”

“How else would I know what happened inside?” Lu Boyan put Su Jianan on the bed. When he tucked her in, he suddenly found Su Jianan staring at him.

She had just had a bath, and the water droplets on her body had not dried off. They slipped down alongside her white neck and clavicle from time to time and glided along the shape of her beautiful collarbone into the bathrobe, which was very intriguing.

The aroma of her after bath got into Lu Boyan’s nose, and Lu Boyan suddenly felt every breath he took. He didn’t know if the heat was too strong, but even the room temperature seemed to rise.

Su Jianan felt that Lu Boyan’s eyes were scorching, and her rationality told her that she should run away, but she could move at all.

When Lu Boyan lowered his head, she almost subconsciously closed her eyes and greeted his lips.

At this time, Lu Boyan was clearly losing control.

He kissed Su Jianan pa.s.sionately, but soon after, he was not satisfied with this.

Su Jianan didn’t know if it was because she had just taken a bath, but her head seemed to be hypoxic and she was in chaos. She couldn’t think of anything, and her strength was gradually failing.

The way she looked right now was simply accelerating the disintegration of Lu Boyan’s self-control. Lu Boyan called her in a hoa.r.s.e and repressed cry: “Jianan…”

Su Jianan embraced Lu Boyan and responded to his kiss.

“Boom—” Something exploded in his body. Lu Boyan didn’t know how much effort he took to suppress all thoughts and impulses, and he released Su Jianan. “You sleep now, I’ll take a bath.”

His voice…

Su Jianan grasped the robe’s placket and silently sympathized with Lu Boyan.

The sound of the water came from the bathroom, which lasted for nearly half an hour, then finally Lu Boyan came out.

Su Jianan had put on her pajamas, and looked at Lu Boyan from under the quilt. She wanted to laugh but couldn’t laugh, after all, he was already pitiful enough.

But she didn’t know that her sneer would only make Lu Boyan more depressed.

Lu Boyan touched her belly. “Can we after three months?”

The blush on Su Jianan’s cheeks had eventually faded, but came back again after Lu Boyan said this. She pulled up the quilt and covered her head. “The doctor said that it’s better not to.”

Lu Boyan was worried that she would suffocate herself, so he pulled down the quilt and bit her ear with regret. “Then you owe it to me.”

“…” Su Jianan was speechless, could this still be owed?

Anyway, in the end, Lu Boyan still controlled himself very well.

…

The next day, Su Jianan woke up early and said she would go out with Luo Xiaoxi.

Lu Boyan was not a.s.sured that Su Jianan should step out of the house, but if she wanted to go out, he would not stop her. He asked, “Do you want me to go with you?”

“I want to go shopping with Xiaoxi, are you sure you can go shopping with two women all day?” Su Jianan wasn’t suspicious of Lu Boyan’s patience, but she knew he was not interested in shopping, so she touched his face. “I will be careful. Besides, you’ll send someone to follow me. I will be fine. You go to the company to work and earn milk for the baby.”

After a long talk, Lu Boyan was finally convinced by Su Jianan, but he asked seven or eight people to follow Su Jianan.

It looked a bit terrifying, but Su Jianan knew all these people. She had met them when she was abducted by the Brothers of Shao at a reception when she and Lu Boyan were married shortly after, and later they had many intersections. Lu Boyan only said that they were bodyguards.

All eight people were wearing plain clothes and following Su Jianan closely. If one was not a professional, they would not have noticed anything abnormal.

After Luo Xiaoxi found out that some people were following them, she was eager to ask Su Jianan to show her which ones they were. At last, she couldn’t help sighing. “Each one looks tough, Jianan. Your Boss Lu also looks tough.”

Su Jianan smiled. “We’ll go to the children’s clothing area later.”

“The babies won’t be born until the end of the year,” Luo Xiaoxi murmured, “is it too soon?”

“The baby’s room is already being designed, it’s not too soon.” Su Jianan said, “I wanted to buy some clothes for them when I knew I was pregnant, but I was afraid it would cause suspicion at that time, and coupled with my discomfort, I never had the chance to come here.”

These days, she was in a good physical condition, and Luo Xiaoxi was available because since she had just returned, so they could just go shopping together.

However, she did not expect that she would meet Han Ruoxi’s film crew in a shopping mall.

The entire maternity and baby supplies area was fenced off. The staff of the crew was setting up a scene, and Su Jianan was standing outside. She wondered if she could take a look from outside the scene.

The crew did not know Su Jianan. When they saw her and Luo Xiaoxi standing there watching, thinking that they were fans, the workers waved them away. “Don’t watch and don’t sneak any shots. We will call the security guard if it affects the shooting!”

Luo Xiaoxi whispered, “It sounds like we wanted to do so. Jianan, let’s go to another place.”

Su Jianan just nodded, but unexpectedly, a worker suddenly came out and asked arrogantly, “Do you know who is filming here today? Han Ruoxi! She will be here soon. If you don’t leave, don’t blame our security guards.”

It was fine if the worker didn’t mention Han Ruoxi, but when he did, Su Jianan knew that there would be trouble.

Luo Xiaoxi indeed did not intend to leave, and she snorted. She pulled back the barrier. “Is this the place where Han Ruoxi is filming? Then I’ll be shopping here today!”

As soon as Luo Xiaoxi’s epilogue had ended, Han Ruoxi suddenly appeared from the end of the corridor. She wore Dior sungla.s.ses and a black outfit. Her steps were decisive and not hesitant at all, which made her look like a queen.

Han Ruoxi didn’t even look at Su Jianan and Luo Xiaoxi, but went straight to the makeup dressing room and said, “I will be filming here all day today. It’s not open to customers. If they are not part of the crew, please have the workers ask them to leave.”

Luo Xiaoxi strolled through the malls of all the big cities and always enjoyed VIP treatment. She had never been asked to go away.

And no one dared to do that to her.

Seeing that Luo Xiaoxi was about to break out, Su Jianan held her hand. “Don’t mess around, let me deal with it.”

Luo Xiaoxi didn’t believe that Su Jianan would do it herself and asked, “Are you going to ask your eight bodyguards to mess this place up?”

“Well, let’s be gentle.”

While saying this, Su Jianan took out her mobile phone and dialed Lu Boyan’s number, and it was connected after just one ring.

“What’s wrong?” Lu Boyan asked, “Aren’t you shopping with Xiaoxi?”

“We are in the shopping mall on the pedestrian street. I want to take a look at baby clothes, but half of the floor is surrounded by a crew as a shooting venue, and I can’t go in…”

“I will ask Yuechuan to call the manager of the mall,” said Lu Boyan. “Find a place to sit and wait, or go to other floors.”

Su Jianan answered, “OK,” then looked at her watch and began to count. Less than three minutes later, the mall manager came with seven or eight security guards.

The workers thought they were here to drive Su Jianan and Luo Xiaoxi away, pointing to them. “Manager, they are there!”

The manager was respectful to Su Jianan. “Mrs. Lu, wait a minute, we will restore the maternal and infant supplies area immediately.”

The security quickly dismantled the scene set up by the crew, and the manager went directly to the director and asked them to move to another mall to shoot.

The crew had been busy all morning doing this, and Han Ruoxi and other actors had all arrived. It was difficult for them to even start shooting, but they were suddenly notified to move to another mall. Of course, the director would not easily agree, who asked angrily, “Why?!”

The manager handed a mobile phone to the director and only said, “Because our Boss Lu said so.”

The director’s complexion changed slightly, and taking over the phone, he heard Lu Boyan’s voice come from the receiver. “Director Tian.”

“Yes, Boss Lu,” even knowing that Lu Boyan could not see it, the director still had a smile on his face, “is it inconvenient for us to shoot in the mall today?”

“Yes,” said Lu Boyan, “my wife is in the mall, and she just wants to visit the maternal and infant supplies area.”

“I understand.” The director did not dare to say anything else. “The scene is already being dismantled. Mrs. Lu can visit immediately in just a few minutes!”
