Part 2: The Great Sugar of the East, Chapter 144

l record proving that my client underwent surgery at the hospital. From now on, he will only have two young children: Shu Xiaonian and Shu Xiaohe."The lawyer spoke cryptically, and when the people pre...He pointed to the watch on his wrist, signaling that they shouldn't talk too long as their walking time was up. He didn't mention it and everything would have been fine, but once he did, Lu Yaoyao instantly turned back to chat with Gu's mother about baby stuff, from looks to feeding issues, refusing to hang up the video call in order to avoid their nightly 6,000-step walk.

Gu Ruandong is a "cold-blooded coach". These past few months, no matter how busy he is, he doesn't miss a day, insisting on accompanying her.

Yao Yao's figure was slightly chubby at the beginning, but after controlling her diet a little and walking 6000 steps every day, she managed to control it pretty well.

Gu Ruandong saw that she was starting to play the victim again, using his mother as a shield. He continued to make small talk, just refusing to hang up the video call.

He walked straight over, snatched the phone from her hand, and said to Mrs. Gu, who was stunned in the video, "Phones emit radiation; use them less."

Mother Gu hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, I'll hang up now. You tell Yaoyao to use her phone less too."

Damn radiation, Lu Yaoyao was so angry she wanted to punch him.

He doesn't understand, she overflows with joy every day for the baby growing in her belly and has to share (brag) it with someone. She feels uncomfortable if she doesn't. In this world, besides him, only her mother is probably most willing to listen to these shares and most looking forward to the baby's arrival. Even more excited than her, like seeing a 4D photo and smiling foolishly for a long time. I ask you, who else can empathize and feel the same way

Gu Ruandong grasped her hand as she swung it at him, a mischievous grin on his face. "So quick to hit people Be careful, you might influence the baby."

Lu YaoYao wore a shrewd expression, seeing through everything: "Are you trying to clear yourself beforehand If the baby's personality is bad in the future, you can say it's because I didn't teach him well during pregnancy"

Gu Ruandong otherwise: "Well, if the personality is bad, it's from me."

He still has some responsibility. If his personality is really bad, he shouldn't blame his wife. Besides, he firmly believes that his daughter Yaoyao has a good personality, so overall, the baby's personality won't be bad either.

Lu YaoYao was originally full of anger, but when she heard him say this, she immediately clasped his hand and said: "My husband is right, it's an angel baby."

He can't stand to see him belittle himself, he is very encouraging.

Gu Ruandong took advantage of the situation to pull her out. She probably had a thick filter for him, so she thought everything he did was good.

Yayaya has to walk 6000 steps every day. Although she always complains and finds excuses not to walk, she actually perseveres every day. She just likes to act cute with Gu Ruandong and see his helpless expression as he wants to scold her but has to coax her instead. She finds this very satisfying.

She had a smooth pregnancy, cared for by everyone. Even the baby in her womb seemed to take care of her. Every prenatal checkup showed perfect growth data, and aside from some weight gain in the beginning, her body didn't gain any more later on.

Every night, nestled in Gu Ruandong's arms, she would be filled with gratitude. "Husband," she would say, "I feel like I am truly the chosen one, God's favorite."

Gu Ruandong laughed, loving her like this, feeling happiness and wanting to express it loudly, letting everyone around feel it too.

Happiness is contagious; when she spreads it, others send positive energy back, so what she feels is always positive.

She has a natural ability to block out negativity, even when faced with difficult situations, like what happened with the Lu family previously. She can bounce back from them quickly.

This pregnancy, because of Da An's situation, she knew Gu Ruandong was in danger and unsafe, but she wouldn't create extra unease or anxiety for him. Instead, she spent each day peacefully as a pregnant woman, waiting for the arrival of her new life.

Her state of mind was a great support and comfort to Gu Ruandong.

They have been looking for Daan for a while now, without any concrete leads on his whereabouts, but they can be certain he is still in the southwest region.

The terrain there is complex, and it's convenient for him to smuggle out of the country. It's the safest place for him. Xu Ze Fang and his men, along with Zhuo Yu An's cooperation, finally had a breakthrough after searching for so long.

As they initially suspected, he had forged a false identity and was hiding in a border town. It was a lawless place teeming with people who made a living by smuggling others across the border, so everyone there was a stranger, and no one paid much attention to anyone else.

Xu Ze Fang used to have a brother who was involved in this line of work, and he helped him find someone to investigate Da An before. So this time, after determining the approximate location, he asked his friend to pay attention.

Their circle wasn't very big, the same people coming and going. Perhaps after hiding for so long, Daan had relaxed his guard. In just a few days, a friend passed on word that someone had seen him.

Xu Zefang, upon hearing this, was like a shot of adrenaline. He was excited and immediately took a group of people there, notifying Gu Ruandong only on the way.

He wasn't particularly good at keeping his cool. His previous action was thwarted by Danan, leaving him furious; after searching for him for so long, he finally found him. He couldn't hold it in any longer and couldn't wait for Gu Ruandong's detailed plan. He had already arrived at the border town.

Gu Ruandong had always been quite calm. Even when he found Dahan, he wasn't overly excited; it was all within his expectations, just a matter of time. It was Xu Zefang's reckless action of running over without any plan that made him furious.

They don't have much contact with people on that side of the border. If something were to happen, it would be far away from the capital and he wouldn't be able to save them even if he wanted to. But Xu Zefang has already gone, and considering the danger, he couldn't just sit in his office in Senzhou and give orders remotely anymore. So he immediately deployed a team of people to wait for him in the southwest, and he was heading over there himself.

This operation was conducted without informing Zhu YUAN, because it might involve real violence.

At this point, Yao Yao's belly was already eight months pregnant. For the past two months, he had made no plans and simply intended to stay at home with her in preparation for childbirth; there was nothing more important than her. But things took an unexpected turn. Xu Ze Fang going like that would undoubtedly be fraught with danger. He didn't believe that Da An, who had been hiding for so long, would be found so easily. Could there be a trap involved

It's not that he wants to, but Dan is a sly person and you have to be careful around him.

After all, it involved Xu Zefang's life, he had to leave Yaoyao temporarily and go to support Xu Zefang.

He only told Yaoyao that the branch office had encountered a temporary situation and he needed to go on a two-day business trip.

Lu Yaoyao didn't think much of it, and she couldn't wait to wave goodbye with both hands. Because during her entire pregnancy, he accompanied her every day, which made her a little annoyed, especially his strict management of her diet and exercise. She was so happy to have two days off.

Gu Ruandong also acted very normally, pinched her face, "Six thousand steps of walking every day, no laziness allowed. My phone can show me your daily step count."

When Xiao Gurulu was three years old, he already showed differences from other children of the same age. He was always cool and handsome every day, just like a little Gu Ruan Dong.

One day, when several families got together, he kept clinging to his mother and wouldn't let his father come near.

Uncle Lu Kuo despised "Mama's Boys" the most, so he said: "Go play with your older siblings, adults are discussing serious matters."

Just trying to get away from the little ones and have a few drinks.

Little Gulu shook his head resolutely: "I'm not going, I want to protect mom, or dad will bully her."

Everyone looked at Gu Ruandong, was there such a thing

Gu Ruandong asked in bewilderment, "When did I ever bully Mom"

“Last night you were pressing on Mommy, she cried out loud, making you…”

"...Lu YaoYao covered his mouth with her hand..."

Lu YaoYao's face flushed instantly, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in...

Gu Ruandong remained very calm: "Children speak without restraint."

On the other hand, Lu Kuo and Zhuo Yu'an both covered their respective daughters' ears as soon as Xiaogulu spoke its first words, so as not to be corrupted by such vulgar language...

Lu Kuo's daughter covered her ears when she saw her father doing so, thinking there was danger. So, she instinctively covered her father's hands and said warmly, "Dad, don't be afraid."

Shu Xiaohé, a mischievous and spirited child, let go of her father's hand and said seriously to Xiao Gurulu: "That's how mom and dad show they love each other, it's not bullying."cher standing beside her dispersed the onlookers. The school doctor, carrying a medical kit, also rushed over and squatted down next to Wen Jian to check on her.Every time the doctor touched Wen Jian'...
