After nodding, Ye Manni sat on the sofa reservedly, fully expecting the reaction of old master Lu.

However, after a while, Mr. Lu acted as if nothing had happened.

Holding a teacup, the old god was drinking tea on the ground, without the slightest intention to speak.

Ye Manni's hands on her knees suddenly tightened, and the anticipation in her heart gradually turned into surprise and anxiety.

Before, she had seen how much Mrs. Fu cared about blood and descendants.

She also specially understood that the most important thing in a wealthy family is blood, especially the older generation.

Although they are rich, they are ordinary people in the final analysis. When they get old, they always want to have grandchildren and grandchildren.

I thought the most difficult thing today was how to reveal the checklist without any trace.

Now it seems that she underestimated the importance of blood to Mr. Lu.

Thinking of this, Ye Manni lost her composure.

She licked her dry lips, coughed lightly, and opened her mouth to break the silent atmosphere.

"Grandpa, I didn't mean to hide it from you. I wanted to tell Xiuwen first, but, Xiuwen, he seems to be angry with me recently, and always avoids me."

Ye Manni kept her posture very low, and the corners of her eyes turned red as she spoke, as if a junior was confiding her troubles to an elder.

Unconsciously, it reveals grievances and dependence.

Mr. Lu paused the hand holding the teacup, and glanced at her lightly, with a flash of disgust in the depths of his eyes.

Ever since the incident between Ye Manni and Lu Xiuwen at the birthday banquet, Mr. Lu's patience with Ye Manni has gradually disappeared.

Originally, he was thinking of using Ye Manni to separate Siyu and Xiuwen.

Now it seems that he really chose the wrong chess piece at that time.

Obviously, before Ye Manni went abroad, she looked like a pure and lovely little girl.

Why did he change so much after returning from a trip abroad?

Even if her private life is chaotic, she no longer has that innocent and cute look in her eyes, instead she reveals calculations and cruelty everywhere.

Mr. Lu closed his eyes and sighed heavily in his heart.

It is rare to feel a little regret.

Thinking of getting the news a few days ago, Siyu went abroad again.

Presumably that girl Siyu really blamed him.

Mr. Lu felt uncomfortable, and really didn't want to see Ye Manni's calculating face again.

His tone was very cold.

"I'm old, and the feelings between you juniors are not suitable for mixing in. It's getting late, you go back first, I'm tired, I have to go back to my room to rest."

The housekeeper not far away heard this, walked over quickly, and helped Mr. Lu go upstairs.

Ye Manni did not expect such a reaction from Mr. Lu, and did not mention the child at all.

The purpose of her coming today is not just to tell old man Lu that she is pregnant with Lu Xiuwen's child, but to hope that old man Lu will take the initiative to force Lu Xiuwen to get engaged to her for the sake of the child.

How could Ye Manni leave without achieving her goal?

She hurriedly got up, turned around and chased after Mr. Lu, and shouted loudly: "Grandpa."

Mr. Lu had already reached the stairs, and he didn't even pause when he heard the sound, and continued to walk up.

The butler quietly glanced at Mr. Lu's expression, seeing his gloomy expression, his heart hung high.

I'm afraid Ye Manni will make some trouble again.

You know, the doctor said that Mr. Lu needs to rest recently, and he can't stand the stimulation.

Fortunately, Ye Manni hadn't completely lost her mind, seeing that Mr. Lu didn't react at all.

She opened her mouth, and finally forced a smile, her voice softened.

"Since grandpa is tired, I will come to see grandpa next time."

After all, with a forced smile on the corner of her mouth, she watched Mr. Lu go upstairs very filially, then turned around, took her bag and walked out the door unwillingly.

Mr. Lu went all the way back to the room, instead of lying on the bed, he walked to the French window and looked at Ye Manni who was walking slowly downstairs.

He looked at it with a sullen face for a moment, then ordered the housekeeper lightly.

"Go and ask the driver to see her off."

The butler was startled, and nodded in response.

"Okay, sir."

After finishing speaking, the butler turned around and walked downstairs quickly.

When the door slammed, Mr. Lu sighed softly, took out his mobile phone and made a call.

"Go and find out for yourself whether Ye Manni is really pregnant and how long she has been pregnant."

After saying this, Mr. Lu hung up the phone, looked away, and stopped looking at Ye Manni downstairs.

Ye Manni still had that indifferent look on her face, but in fact, she had already killed Mr. Lu tens of thousands of times in her heart.

She walked out angrily, thinking about what to do next while walking.

If Mr. Lu didn't take the bait, she had no choice but to start with Lu Xiuwen.

It's a pity that Lu Xiuwen deliberately avoided her during this time, she didn't even know Lu Xiuwen's whereabouts, and it was even more difficult to get close to Lu Xiuwen.

Ye Manni was worrying when suddenly there was a sound of messy footsteps behind her.

Immediately behind him came the butler's voice: "Miss Ye, please wait a moment."

Hearing the butler's voice suddenly, Ye Manni was overjoyed, thinking that Mr. Lu had changed his mind.

She almost laughed out loud, clenched her hands to calm down, and turned around pretending to be surprised to look at the butler who hurried over.

"what happened?"

As she spoke, she glanced towards the second floor, "Is there something Grandpa forgot to say?"

Catching the anticipation deep in Ye Manni's eyes, the butler had a smile on his face, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

He repeated Mr. Lu's instructions rigorously.

"The master said to ask the driver to take you back."

Hearing these words, Ye Manni couldn't hide her disappointment.

She thought that Mr. Lu had changed his mind. It turned out that he just asked the driver to take her back.

Although she was dissatisfied in her heart, she still smiled gratefully at the housekeeper.

"That's great. I'm wondering how I'm going to get back. Please thank Grandpa for me."

"You are too kind."

The butler sent Ye Manni to the car, watched the car leave, and then turned around to report to Mr. Lu.

Ye Manni, who was sitting in the car, became active again.

The few times she came here before, Mr. Lu didn't send her back.

Come to think of it, she still cared about the child in her womb.

The reason why she didn't respond at all was probably because she wondered if the child in her belly belonged to Lu Xiuwen.

Ye Manni was thinking about it when the phone in her bag rang suddenly.

She picked up the phone, and when she saw that it was Xu Lan, she knew that her guess was right.

Ye Manni glanced at the driver lightly, and saw that the driver was driving seriously.

But she was still not ready to answer the phone directly.

The driver is from the Lu family's old house, so it's hard to guarantee that he wasn't sent by Mr. Lu to watch her.

Ye Manni hung up the phone and sent a message to Xu Lan directly.

"Sorry, it's going to be a little busy, I'll call you later."

After sending the text message, she kept thinking about the phone call.

She and Xu Lan usually chat on WeChat, and Xu Lan will only call when it is important.

Thinking that Xu Lan's phone call might have something to do with her child, Ye Manni became a little anxious, and turned her head to look out the window absent-mindedly.
