My Billionaire Husband Claimed Me His Precious-Chapter 699 - 617: So Shameless Indeed

"Hey, hey, hey, if you say that, your mother-in-law will be heartbroken."

Lu Qing’s gaze dimmed slightly. He hadn’t been in touch with his family for some time, only occasionally calling Lu Lu.

His mother’s undisguised fear of him had hurt him deeply.

Seeing his expression, Qin Miaomiao felt a pang of sympathy. She held his hand and said:

"The day after tomorrow, it looks like it’s going to be a tough battle, but I’ll stand by you."

Lu Qing was amused: "You, just focus on taking care of the baby in your belly. Nothing else matters."

Qin Miaomiao pouted: "How about I bring Xiao Bai and Little Xiaobai along? With those two guarding me, who’d dare come near?"

"My wife is absolutely powerful and domineering! But to avoid scaring people, how about just bringing a few bodyguards instead?"

"Let’s bring Little Sixth and Little Seventh, but not too many. Grandpa might have some opinions about it. Also, after we finish the New Year’s Eve dinner, let’s head back. There’s still Ninth Uncle and Xiao Chen at home. New Year’s Eve should be spent with family. Actually, maybe let’s leave Little Seventh behind, too. If we take the Imperial Chef, what will they eat?"

"Alright, alright, I’ll follow all your arrangements."

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year’s Eve, and a thick layer of snow had fallen in the morning!

By the afternoon, at around three o’clock, the two of them set off. Lu Qing carefully helped Qin Miaomiao into the car, and the driver, Little Second, drove unbelievably slowly!

It was almost like a snail crawling, given Qin Miaomiao’s heavily pregnant state. She looked worryingly fragile, and no one dared risk even the slightest mishap.

A one-hour drive ended up taking two hours before they finally arrived at the old family estate.

Lu Lu was already waiting outside for them.

"Brother, Sister-in-law, you’ve finally arrived."

When the car stopped, Lu Lu rushed forward to help support them. Having been out in society and gained some experience, she had matured quite a bit.

Especially since Qin Miaomiao was technically her boss. Qin Miaomiao had invested a great deal in her, throwing resources her way, landing her two roles with big-hit potential.

She even assigned her a professional team—Lu Lu, regardless of her previous foolishness, wouldn’t dare act as recklessly as before.

"It’s so cold; why are you standing out here?"

"It hasn’t been long. Sister-in-law, you need to be extra careful; the ground is slippery from the snow."

Before Qin Miaomiao could steady herself, a shrill voice pierced the air.

"Wow, how precious must you be to need so many people helping you?"

She turned toward the voice and saw a wealthy-looking woman draped in a mink coat, her face thickly layered with makeup.

Lu Lu’s expression instantly soured. She whispered into Qin Miaomiao’s ear:

"That’s her. But why is she here?"

Mei Yufang clung to Lu Xingfeng’s arm, looking smug and even putting on the airs of a legitimate wife.

Qin Miaomiao glanced at Lu Qing, who then turned his gaze to the woman and gestured for the housekeeper waiting at the door to come over.

In a flat tone, Lu Qing asked:

"Why is that woman here?"

"Reporting to Young Master Lu, the Old Master only invited the gentleman but did not invite her."

"If the Old Master lets that woman through the door, we’ll directly turn around and leave. This place isn’t somewhere just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can walk into."

The housekeeper looked conflicted as he went inside to report the situation. Truly, it was a ridiculous embarrassment.

Especially considering inside was the officially recognized Mrs. Lu. With Mr. Lu bringing his mistress to the family home—what did that even mean?

And on New Year’s Eve, no less—if this turned into a scene, it would be a real disaster.

Lu Qing, worried Qin Miaomiao might be cold, ushered her back into the car.

The heater was on in the vehicle, and Lu Lu stayed with her, chatting about family matters.
