Chapter 999: I’m Afraid You’ll Blow Up the Whole Estate
"Are you missing Xinluo or her cooking?" Gong Shaoyu asked.
Lan Shan: "..."
"Can you not undermine me? Xinluo is pregnant now, and Young Master Chen doesn’t let her enter the kitchen. I even heard that Young Master Chen learned to cook and almost blew up the kitchen."
"Then I should try to learn cooking too."
Upon hearing this, Lan Shan quickly waved her hand, "No, I’m afraid you’ll blow up the whole estate."
Not giving any face at all?
He indulgently tapped her nose, "Do you have to be so blunt? It must be boring to stay home every day. Why don’t we go to Z City and visit Xinluo for a while?"
"Sure." She had wanted to go back to Z City for a long time; her heart had flown there already.
"I’ll send you back in a couple of days."
Lan Shan tugged on his arm, "Can you stay with me there?"
"Probably not. Qiao Rui has gone to the UK and won’t be back until after your due date. The company was entrusted to someone else, as you’ve seen."
After Lan Shan and Gong Shaoyu’s wedding, Qiao Rui went to the UK for long-term business. Gong Shaoyu wanted to stay home with her, so he handed the company over to another person. Unfortunately, it turned into chaos in less than half a month, and no one was willing to temporarily take it over, so he had to juggle between the company and home every day.
"Then when Qiao Rui comes back, you must stay home with me."
"Of course, I’ll immediately dump the responsibility on him once he returns."
Far away in the UK, busy with work, Qiao Rui suddenly sneezed. He grabbed a tissue to wipe his nose, not thinking too much about it, and continued with his work.

Beichen Building
Ye Xinluo walked into the elevator carrying a bag, went straight to the top floor, and headed directly to Qin Yin’s desk.
Before she even got close, she noticed Qin Yin resting her chin in her hand, lost in thought. Ye Xinluo lightly coughed twice, bringing her back to reality.
"Xinluo, why are you here?" Qin Yin looked behind her instinctively, "Is the CEO not with you?"
"I’m here to see you today. Beichen Rui has been brushed off by me. Tong Ma made a lot of beef jerky, and since I’m pregnant, I can’t eat too much of it. I thought, aren’t you living alone these days? So I brought some for you."
She took out a box from the bag and opened it, "Try it and see how it tastes."
Qin Yin picked a piece to taste, and just as she was about to speak, she noticed Xu Kun standing behind Ye Xinluo. She glanced at him, signaling him not to frighten her.
"Isn’t this too unfair?"
But she still got startled...
Ye Xinluo turned around, still shaken, "How do you walk without making a sound? Do you have to be so scary?"
Xu Kun raised both hands, "I’ve been careful enough. I don’t want Rui coming to beat me up; you were too engrossed in your conversation."
He glanced at the box on the table, "I’m working hard every day too. Rui doesn’t come to the company, Mo Han isn’t here, and everything falls on my shoulders. Why doesn’t anyone bring me anything?"
The air was thick with jealousy as Ye Xinluo teased with a laugh, "Oops, I’m sorry, I really forgot."
Despite saying that, she took another box out of her pocket. "Here, this is for you. Since I’m here, of course, I would bring something. It’s been tough working during this period, things should get a bit better when Mo Han returns."
"Hmm." Xu Kun nodded, "The progress on his side is going well, he should be back soon. I don’t mind the hard work, but I must say, ever since Mo Han went on his business trip, some people seem like they’re missing their soul. They aren’t serious about work, do you think we should do something about it?"
