The CEO's loser wife: Rebirth of the villainous queen of alchemy

Squirrel worriedly walked towards the woman who was mumbling something to herself.

Maybe because Runyan was so shaken, as soon as she saw him, she ran towards Squirrel and hugged the man tightly.

Her entire body was trembling as she leaned on the man's broad shoulders and started crying uncontrollably.

"Third brother, please don't tell the others. Lin Lin, she is in trouble."

Runyan couldn't hold it in any longer and spilled the beans.

"Lin Lin is preg… pregnant. And the baby is in trouble."

Squirrel was confused. Wasn't that good news? Amazing news in fact?

But his face slowly changed as he patiently listened to Runyan's incoherent mumblings that escaped in between her sobs.

Squirrel was genuinely worried as well.

But the poor woman was completely devastated.

Squirrel hesitated. He didn't want to take advantage of a broken person.

But he didn't know how else to console her…

So he ended up lifting his hands that were glued stuck to his sides and wrapped them around the woman clinging to him tightly.

She was holding him as if he was her life raft.

He gently hugged her at first. He tried to tell her that it will be okay. "We can all put our heads together and figure something out. Don't worry. Don't worry."

But Runyan was still sobbing uncontrollably.

Squirrel sighed. He let go of whatever self-restraint he had mustered and hugged her tightly without holding back.

Maybe because of the intense pressure and the comfort a genuine hug gave, Runyan stopped trembling and soon she regained her senses.

"Ah…" She awkwardly looked up and met the affectionate eyes that stared at her.

"That… That… I am sorry, third brother." She immediately stepped back and wobbled.

"Careful." Squirrel stepped forward to support her and help her balance.

But Runyan quickly held the table next to her and supported herself, leaving Squirrel's hand hanging in mid-air.

She had just balled her eyes out like a small kid. So she was embarrassed to meet his eyes and ran away downstairs.

She quickly reached her office on the first floor and closed the door behind her panting.

"What did I just do?" She blankly stared.

But before she could reprimand herself for her weird behavior, Runyan felt something inside her change, as if she had broken through a bottleneck.

She immediately got out of the company headquarters and rushed back to the mansion to cultivate.

She had a pretty good feeling and she instinctively felt the need to focus and cultivate.

Squirrel was still standing on the seventh floor, rooted to the spot. Several confusing thoughts were flooding his mind.

He pinched the space between his eyebrows and put away the thoughts concerning Runyan, at least for the moment, so that he could focus more on the other pressing matter.

Squirrel sighed. His Master clearly didn't want his first brother to learn this news just yet.

Runyan had mumbled something about unstable pregnancy and so on.

Su Lin probably didn't want to involve Luther, because there was a high chance of miscarriage.

That didn't mean it was definitely going to be bad news, because if that was the case, she would have already shared it.

Su Lin must be working very hard to make something happen. She must definitely have the confidence to pull through this.

Squirrel fidgeted with his hands inside his pockets for a while.

He hesitated for a while, but eventually ended up getting into his car and driving to the Shi mansion, where Su Lin and Luther currently resided.

Back at home…

Su Lin and Luther were happily cuddling on the couch and munching on something whilst watching some top singers show on the television.

Luther was slowly feeding her and Su Lin was visibly enjoying the attention like a newborn kitten without a care in the world.

But the happy couple was interrupted by a car screeching in front of the mansion.

"Hmm? Who could it be at this time of the day?" Luther kissed his precious wifey's forehead and mumbled.

"It's probably Monkey looking for some food, I bet." Su Lin chuckled.

But as soon as Squirrel opened the door and walked into the living room, Su Lin's face instantly changed.

She saw Squirrel's serious face and instantly knew that the cat was out of the bag.

Damn it!! Runyan!! You didn't even last for an hour??! Su Lin didn't know whether to cry and laugh.

"Squirrel, I need to" Su Lin was about to say something when Squirrel cut her short and directly looked at his first brother.

He didn't care if his Master beat him up today, he was determined to tell first brother and everyone else the truth.

This was a serious issue! Everyone needed to be working on this!

What company? What improving strength? Everything can wait until the Little bun was safe!

"Brother, your wife is pregnant." He shouted.

"Huh?" Luther stared at the man in front of him dumbfounded.

The words he had clearly heard didn't register in his brain yet.

He looked at Squirrel and then at the guilty party next to him, who by now had buried her head into his chest.

"Is… Is this true love?" He asked holding her gently.

Happiness washed over him as his mind raced and even already started picturing a cute little daughter who looked just like Su Lin.

The genuine ecstatic smile that surfaced on his lips made him look like an angel descended from the heavens.

The softness in his eyes was heart-melting.

He leaned closer and kissed the woman's ears, grinning like an idiot.

He wanted to jump up and down and shout it out loud to the whole world.

"Please say something, baby."

He pulled the woman closer, and hugged her and kissed her like a maniac.

But surprisingly the kisses tasted salty bringing his mind back from cloud nine.

"Are you crying? Is something wrong?" His heart panicked.

He looked at Su Lin who still hadn't looked up at him… even once… or even answered him…
