Chapter 82: Chapter 81: The Overbearing CEO’s Little Wildcat 22

"It’s an evil little thing. There’s no point in keeping it. Anything it could give me, I can get on my own."

Ji Xiaosong didn’t even glance at the Strategy System as she rejected it outright.

Second Lu revealed his tiny teeth, grinning from ear to ear. "It’s good that Mommy looks down on this kind of system. In the future, I’ll research something even better to give you."

In his previous life, he was an orphan raised by the state and never knew what a parent’s love felt like.

In this life, he was Ji Xiaosong’s son and had received her meticulous, unwavering care. Naturally, he wanted to give his mother everything.

"No!"

The Strategy System shrieked, but Second Lu’s cold little face remained devoid of emotion.

In a matter of moments, everything returned to calm.

"Mommy, I’ve taken care of it. Let’s hurry home now."

Second Lu clapped his little hands and then brushed off some non-existent dust from his clothes.

"Okay."

Ji Xiaosong got out of the car with Second Lu. When her son wasn’t looking, she placed a Barrier around Liu Wanqing.

The Barrier wasn’t to protect her, but to prevent her from leaving, while still allowing things from the outside to get in.

While monitoring her with her Divine Sense, Ji Xiaosong had learned of her plans.

She had wanted to kill her own child. Whether she had acted on it or not, Ji Xiaosong could not allow such a menace to remain.

Seeing Ji Xiaosong and Second Lu walking toward the car she was driving, Qin Fang quickly got out and opened the door.

"Ma’am, Young Master, please."

She didn’t ask what the mother and son had been doing for the past half hour. That wasn’t a question for a driver and bodyguard to ask; she had at least that much professional decorum.

"After we get back today, if your master asks, just answer him truthfully."

Ji Xiaosong had no intention of hiding anything from Lu Youheng. While she was investigating Liu Wanqing, she had, of course, also seen Lu Youheng deleting the security footage.

Since he didn’t seem to want to ask, she wouldn’t bring it up herself.

This was their tacit understanding.

"Yes, Ma’am."

When Ji Xiaosong and Second Lu returned home, Lu Youheng had just arrived as well.

Seeing the luggage already packed and organized, his furrowed brow relaxed.

That evening, Lu Youheng held Ji Xiaosong in his arms and told her about his plans.

"I’ve already found a potential buyer for the assets we’re liquidating. The Liu Family also wants a piece of the pie. I thought about it, and I need to let you know that I’ve agreed to sell our current office building to them."

"It’s business. You can just decide. I trust your judgment; you won’t let the Lu Family take a loss."

"Of course not. After we return to the country, you can continue to study medicine. I’ll arrange a school and teachers for you. At the same time, I also hope you can take charge of the Lu Family’s annual charitable endeavors."

"Charity?"

Ji Xiaosong was a little confused as to why he wanted her to do this.

"You’re my wife. Engaging in charity can only benefit the Lu Family’s image; there’s no downside. Besides, you also need a role to enter my social circle. I’ll arrange everything for you, including the charity team."

"I remember the Lu Family has always been involved in charity. In high school, I received a scholarship every year. It was named after the founder of the Lu Family’s first generation of business."

Ji Xiaosong recalled it from her memory. The original owner of this body had good grades, and the school would give her some scholarship money every year.

Some came from the government, and some came from various philanthropists in society.

’Who would have thought that, after all this time, I’d end up marrying my benefactor.’

"The academic scholarships are just one part of it. You can do so much more with medical-related charities. I’m confident you can handle it all."

Lu Youheng had decided on this ever since he learned of Ji Xiaosong’s special abilities.

’I’ve heard that cultivators place great importance on accumulating merit. If I give my wife more support, can she accumulate even more merit? Perhaps it will benefit her cultivation in the long run.’

"Don’t worry, you can leave it to me."

Lu Youheng tightened his arms around Ji Xiaosong and then caressed her swelling belly.

"You’re carrying one more this time than the last. Is it difficult for you?"

"No."

Ji Xiaosong placed her hand over Lu Youheng’s. "The Lu Family has accumulated good karma for generations and is protected by the heavens. As your wife, I am naturally blessed as well. So, don’t worry. I will safely give birth to all four children."

"Thank you."

Lu Youheng gently kissed Ji Xiaosong’s forehead and then pulled her into a tight embrace, as if trying to merge her into his very being.

His eyes reddened slightly, and his voice trembled. "Xiaosong, you’ve given so much for this family."

Then, Lu Youheng knelt down, carefully pressing his ear to Ji Xiaosong’s belly, listening for any movement inside, his face filled with anticipation and bliss.

"They’re still so small, how could there be any movement? Once they’re a bit bigger, we’ll be able to see them."

Looking at Lu Youheng, Ji Xiaosong burst out laughing.

He wasn’t annoyed by his wife’s teasing. Instead, he started talking to her belly.

"Even if I can’t feel any movement, my babies can definitely hear Daddy’s voice and feel Daddy’s love. My darlings, you have three older brothers, and they’re all very capable. In the future, Mommy, Daddy, and your three big brothers will protect you as you grow up."

He continued to ramble on for a while. He had done the same kind of "prenatal education" during Ji Xiaosong’s previous pregnancy.

With this pregnancy, Lu Youheng planned to continue the tradition.

A few days later, Lu Youheng had finished dealing with all their real estate in B Province, leaving nothing behind.

The family boarded their private jet and flew back to their home country.

As soon as the plane landed, several news alerts popped up.

#Massive Wildfire Breaks Out in B Province, J Country; Blaze Uncontrollable#

#Fire Feared to Become J Country’s Most Destructive Natural Disaster; New Strong Winds May Cause Further Spread#

#B Province Fire in J Country Claims 3 Lives, Including One Woman From Our Country#

...

Lu Youheng looked at the successive news reports, then suddenly turned and hugged Ji Xiaosong tightly.

"Thank goodness we came back early."

He believed what Ji Xiaosong had said, but he didn’t think it was the heavens protecting the Lu Family. He believed it was Ji Xiaosong protecting them.

’How could gods be more real than his own family? Ji Xiaosong was his family.’

"Yes, we’re back. Our whole family is safe now."

Ji Xiaosong gently patted Lu Youheng’s back, comforting him.

After returning to the country, Lu Youheng quickly arranged for a school for Ji Xiaosong, and also found a master of traditional medicine to be her teacher.

To make it easier for her to open a clinic and obtain a medical license in the future, they went through the full process of signing an official apprenticeship contract and having it notarized.

Her charitable work didn’t fall behind either, and Ji Xiaosong began to appear in the news.

Coincidentally, there had been frequent earthquakes in the country recently, and images of Ji Xiaosong leading her children in disaster relief efforts were everywhere.

Ji Minghua, who hadn’t tested into a regular high school after his middle school entrance exams, was currently lying in his vocational school dorm room, scrolling through short videos.

Suddenly, an image of a donor to the earthquake disaster zone appeared on his phone screen. He stared at it. Wasn’t that his sister, who he hadn’t contacted in years?
