Chapter 1052: Go to Country D to Meet His Fiancée

At the capital.

The problem No. 14 Research Center was facing had finally ended for the time being, so Lu Chengzhou parted ways with He Yidu and Qin Fang at the airport.

It was currently a weekend when he returned to the Royal Garden.

Peng Yan, who was playing a game in the living room, immediately stood up and greeted Lu Chengzhou when he saw him. “Young Master Lu.”

Lu Chengzhou nodded. “Where’s Gu Mang?”

“Madam is sleeping in the bedroom.”

He thus headed to the bedroom while unbuttoning the top button of his shirt.

Gu Mang had just fallen asleep not too long ago when she was woken up by a kiss. She opened her bleary eyes, only to shut them again at the sight of Lu Chengzhou. “I’m sleepy.”

Lu Chengzhou had been gone for over a week, but Gu Mang seemed to crave sleep even more now than before he left.

“Sleep with me,” mumbled the girl, her voice slightly hoarse and gentle.

Lu Chengzhou smiled and nibbled her earlobe as he breathed into her ear. “If I had known that being pregnant would make you act so coyishly, I would’ve made you pregnant long ago.”

“How much earlier do you want??” Gu Mang opened her eyes, her face devoid of expression. I’m just a freshman.

Lu Chengzhou removed his clothes and lay beside her. “I want to see if you act coy when you’re young.”

Gu Mang recalled her childhood while being hugged by Lu Chengzhou. “I was always fighting, dissecting animals, and seeing blood when I was a kid. I didn’t act coy back then, nor do I now.”

Lu Chengzhou placed his hand on her relatively flat belly. “Then I’ll see my daughter act coy instead. She’ll surely look exactly like you when you were a kid.”

Gu Mang opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she ultimately didn’t.

“Why is your waist so thin?” Lu Chengzhou rubbed his hand over her waist. “Why is it still so thin when you’re almost five months pregnant now?”

Gu Mang didn’t say anything.

Lu Chengzhou then buried his face in the crook of her neck, his nose filled with her scent. “Did you miss me, Gu Mang?”

Under the blanket, naughty hands began roaming all over her body.

…

That night.

Lu Chengzhou held Gu Mang’s hand and came out for dinner. Lu Yī and Peng Yan joined them at the table.

Peng Yan looked at Lu Chengzhou. “Young Master Lu, Lu Qi is asking if he can come back already.”

It had been almost two weeks since Lu Qi had gone to Red Flame.

Lu Chengzhou directed his gaze to Gu Mang, who had her chin propped on her hand as she ate the prawn he had peeled for her. “Yes.”

Peng Yan nodded. “Madam, then Ms. Lin…”

Gu Mang raised her exquisite eyebrows. “She won’t be back in the capital for the time being.”

Feeling assured, Peng Yan immediately took out his phone. “In that case, I’ll send a text to Lu QI right away.”

At the mention of Lin Shuang, Lu Chengzhou couldn’t help resist asking on He Yidu’s behalf. “Is Lin Shuang planning to get married?”

“Ah, if nothing goes wrong, they will discuss their wedding date on the sixth of next month.”

There weren’t many days left.

…

The He residence.

He Yidu was currently having dinner with his parents.

He Zhiwen, who had heard from Lu Zhan that his son had caused a commotion at the airport twice, was contemplating how he should naturally bring up the topic without hurting his son’s ego. His wife, An Rong, on the other hand, was thinking about how she should naturally bring up another matter.

An Rong had the body frame of a mixed-blood, the skin of an Asian, and really delicate features. From her appearance, one couldn’t tell which country she was from. Even though she was nearing her fifties, she looked no more than her early thirties, having maintained herself very well. When she stood next to He Yidu, they looked like a pair of siblings.

He Zhiwen cleared his throat as he looked at his son. “How’s the project at No. 14 Research Center going?”

He Yidu picked a shiitake mushroom for his mother. “It wasn’t a huge problem, so it’s all settled now. We’re doing the testing now.”

“That’s good.” He Zhiwen nodded before asking, “I heard from Commander Lu that you’ve been interested in a certain lady lately. You’re not getting young yourself, and Young Master Lu has already gotten married. You should find a time to bring the lady home.”

An Rong nodded. “That’s right, son. I saw that lady at Young Master Lu and Ms. Gu’s wedding. She’s really pretty. Her name is… Lin Shuang, right?”

After Lin Shuang went back to Country D, she used her power to stop He Yidu from entering the country, which was quite extreme. Although he had his ways to enter Country D, her actions were clearly telling him that it was useless if he came, so he should just give up.

At the thought of this, He Yidu felt like he was experiencing a tight chest and breathlessness. He only managed to ease up a bit after loosening his tie.

Seeing how He Yidu remained silent, He Zhiwen asked, “What’s wrong? Did you break up with her?”

Break up? I don’t even have the right to break up with her. I was a one-night stand.

Just one glance, and An Rong could tell that her son was facing a relatively big problem in his relationship with Lin Shuang. Upon figuring that it was easier for another person to come in between them at this stage, she said with a smile, “Son, I’ll be going to Country D in a few days. Why don’t you come with me?”

Just then, He Yidu’s phone vibrated.

He picked up his phone and saw that Lu Chengzhou had sent him a message. His hand slowly tightened its grip on the phone and he couldn’t hear a single word of what his mother was saying. The sixth of next month…

“Can you make it then?” An Rong looked at him, only to see him quietly staring at his phone. She waved her hand in front of him. “Son? Son?”

He Yidu snapped back to his senses and looked up. “Huh? What is it, Mom?”

An Rong glanced at the phone in his hand. “What are you looking at? You looked like you’ve lost your soul.”

He Yidu put his phone down. “Nothing.”

An Rong and He Zhiwen exchanged a look. It looks like that lady has broken his heart…

He Yidu looked at the sumptuous dinner on the table and put down his chopsticks. He had lost his appetite. “Dad, Mom, I’m feeling a little tired. I’ll go rest first.”

Thereafter, he got up and went upstairs.

As An Rong watched him leave, she said, “How are we going to bring that matter up? Now that he’s in this state, he surely won’t want to go to Country D.”

He Zhiwen gave this question some serious thought. “Just say that his grandmother misses him. It’s been six months since he last visited her.”

An Rong felt a little hesitant though. “Won’t he get angry if he finds out that we tricked him into a blind date?”

“How is it a blind date? He’s meeting his fiancée,” said He Zhiwen in all seriousness.

An Rong shot him a glare. “She’s not his fiancée yet. Mom wants them to meet first, but if he’s not willing, she doesn’t want to force him either.”

“That’s right. It’s just a meeting.” He Zhiwen patted her hand. “Don’t worry too much. He’s heartbroken now, so it might be a good thing if he ends up liking that princess.”

“What if he doesn’t?” An Rong still couldn’t help worrying. I heard that that princess isn’t the best person to get along with and that she’s always at odds with her father.. But then again, you can’t fully believe the rumors.
