Chapter 205 - The copycat Part11

Within a matter of minutes, Squirrel and Luther rushed over to the company headquarters. The others were also not far behind them.

Everyone was very panicked and worried since they had no idea what went wrong.

Just earlier today everything was fine. But now suddenly, something terrible happened to their Master?? It was almost unbelievable.

Su Lin was the strongest among them all. If something were to happen to her, they couldn't even fathom how to help her.

Luther's face was so pale by the time he and Squirrel reached the company headquarters.

The man had a terrifying expression on his face as if the entire world was about to come crashing down.

His body was shaking as he ran across the ten flights of stairs without stopping for a single breath.

Several ominous images flashed across his mind.

Luther painfully ignored those and dashed forward with the full force he could muster.

The tiles shattered and the floor sunk in the aftermath of every step he took, leaving in his wake a trail of destruction.

As the man scrambled his way to the 7th floor, his heart was almost beating out of his ċhėst.

Without wasting another second, he pushed open the doors and stumbled inside.

But the sight that met his eyes was entirely different from what he had expected and dreaded…

"Sorry, hubby. I made you worry. Just a small stomach ache. Nothing to worry."

Su Lin's face had already recovered back to its normal healthy and glossy nature.

She seemed to be perfectly fine with a pleasant smile plastered on her face.

She lovingly looked at the man who was panting and heaving in front of her.

Though, Runyan who was sitting next to her had a whole other expression on her face.

Su Lin had forbidden her from sharing any news with the rest of the group. So she bit her lips and stayed silent.

Luther's blankly stared at the woman in front of him. He rushed towards her and scooped her up in his arms in one swift motion.

He then hurriedly checked her for any signs of distress.

Only when he confirmed with his own eyes that she was fine, the man sighed in relief.

His soul returned back to his body, and his blurry vision and his turmoiled mind slowly settled down.

"You scared me, you cute monster. What happened? Why did you have such a bad stomach ache suddenly?"

He planted a kiss on her moist lips and asked her gently, whilst cradling her like a child in his arms.

"It's just… It's just that time of the month." Su Lin hesitantly answered and looked away from his sincere eyes.

She only mumbled the words half-heartedly as she couldn't bring herself to lie to his face.

Luther chuckled in relief. "Let's go home. I will make you something comfortable to eat."

He hugged her tightly and carried her downstairs, not even letting her walk.

Su Lin's heart warmed as she gazed at the man's affectionate eyes. If it was for him, she was willing to suffer through this and so much more.

She glanced at the destroyed floor and felt a slight pang of guilt. The man must have been extremely worried.

She had unnecessarily made him worry. Su Lin leaned forward and kissed his exquisite lips.

"Mmmm. Don't strain yourself, my dear." Luther smiled and held her tightly.

Every time he smiled and looked at her, Su Lin's stomach was flooded with buŧŧerflies.

This feeling she had felt the very first day she met him, still hadn't changed.

She was bursting inside to share with him the good news, but how could she bring herself to get his hopes high, only to have them destroyed in the end.

6 more months… And then she can tell him everything… or nothing… Only time can determine that.

Su Lin was mentally and physically exhausted. So she allowed herself to be pampered by her hubby.

Her child was still fine and her man was right beside her. What more could she ask for?

Su Lin contently rested in the man's arms, as he drove them back to their house.

The other brothers who had also reached the company headquarters by now saw that the couple was doing good and felt relieved.

Just like that, the storm that had suddenly risen out of nowhere quickly disappeared without a trace.

Back in the villa, Luther carried his precious wifey inside, planting soft kisses on her small face.

He hadn't seen her for a while and missed her warm smile.

For some reason, she looked thinner than usual, even revealing a tinge of tiredness in her usually fiery and dominant eyes.

He wondered if she was really okay.

"Do you want to take a bath first?" Luther lovingly asked, carrying the woman up the stairs.

"Yes dear." Su Lin nodded.

The man bent down and nibbled on her lips for a while, before settling her comfortably in the bath tub for a relaxing soak.

He added all of Su Lin's favourite bath salts and her herb mixtures.

Making sure she had everything nearby, Luther stepped out.

He could feel her hot gaze burning a hole on his back.

If he lingered any longer, he might end up attacking the alluring nȧkėd woman affectionately staring at him.

These past few days since he had been working hard at cultivation, he was not able to personally cook for his precious darling.

So he used this chance to prepare a big nutritious meal for his wifey. From the looks of it, he figured that she must have been working pretty hard on something.

Otherwise how could a mere menstrual cramp shake his almighty wife??

He carefully sliced some Ginseng roots and boiled them with ginger, celery, mint and turmeric to make a medicinal soup for pain relief.

He then quickly prepared a few other dishes for a late night dinner.

Dual cultivation can wait. Tonight, all he wanted was his wifey to comfortably eat her fill and snuggle next to him for a sound relaxing sleep.

Back in the bath tub, Su Lin reached for her phone and texted Runyan again.

[I am fine. Don't keep worrying babe.]

She was not planning on involving Runyan in her mess, but unfortunately she had walked in at the wrong time.

In the throes of the mind-numbing pain, Su Lin couldn't muster the strength to lie.

She was bȧrėly holding herself from screaming her lungs out. So she had unknowingly told Runyan the truth.

And now, the poor thing must be still worried to death about her!

Su Lin sighed. She then suċkėd in a few deep breaths as she slowly dissolved into the bath.

Her entire body was aching from the pain she had just underwent. Since she was constantly protecting and isolating her uterine space from the spiritual energy that was freely coursing through her body, Su Lin had suffered a minor backlash.

This was only the beginning. For the next few months, far worse back lashes awaited Su Lin and she knew it.

But for the sake of her small happy family, Su Lin was more than happy to bear with it.

Even if it only increased her chances of a successful pregnancy by a small percentage, she was still willing to go through it all.

She closed her eyes and tried to completely relax her body and mind.

She could clearly hear the sounds in the kitchen downstairs and it made her smile.

"He must be cooking for me." She murmured with a sweet smile dancing on her lips.

...…..

Runyan on the other hand, was sweating buckets.

Her dearest friend had thrown a huge bomb at her and casually fled from the scene.

Su Lin was pregnant?? And she was supposed to keep quiet about it and not tell anyone??? WHAT THE HECK???

"Is this why sis suddenly started busying herself in research? Is she expecting some sort of complications??"

Runyan restlessly walked back and forth, with her mind reeling from the impact of this sudden news.

She felt so useless.

Su Lin told her that because she was pregnant, she won't be able to use her cultivation strength or any technique for the foreseeable future.

So in this time, if they met with any danger… especially something far beyond their capabilities…

Runyan shuddered to think what might happen. Fidgeting with her fingers, she restlessly paced back and forth. Runyan felt as if she was going to go crazy mulling over this on her own.

Just in the room next to Runyan, Squirrel was finishing up his work.

Since he was already here, he had decided to step inside his office to finish some work, before leaving for the day.

And he coincidentally ran into Runyan on his way out.

"Wasn't everything already settled? Why does she still look worried?"

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