"Huh? What happened? "Xixi panicked when she heard the news.
"It's … a little complicated. I'm going out for a while. You should sleep early."
"Rick …" Xixi seemed to want to know. She pulled Rick's sleeve and refused to let him go.
Rick turned his head and looked at Xixi's pitiful eyes. He said gently, "You're pregnant. You should take care of your health. It's better if you don't ask. You'll be more worried if you know. Plus, it won't help. Leave it to me."
"You take care of yourself."
"Okay."
Then, Rick left the villa. Before he left, he reminded her again.
"Take good care of Madam. Don't let anyone touch her."
"Yes."
Xixi was less than two months pregnant. They had been together for many years and were finally going to be parents.
Xixi's pregnancy was both a blessing and a curse for Rick.
He loved Xixi deeply, so he definitely loved the child.
But with Rick's current situation, if people found out, Xixi and the child would be in danger.
The Rick family had many enemies. Many people were waiting to take advantage of his weakness.
But Xixi seemed to be very happy. She had been very careful since she was pregnant.
She even paid attention to her diet. She loved cold food, but she even stopped eating ice cream. She just wanted to take care of the baby in her stomach.
Now, all they needed was a wedding …
Because of the Rick family's mafia status, they couldn't have a public wedding and invite guests from all over the world.
That would be telling everyone that they had a wife and now they had another weakness.
He didn't want Xixi to expose too much because he was afraid that she would be in danger.
So when he found out that Xixi was pregnant, Rick thought a lot.
In the end, he decided to find an island with beautiful scenery and invite a few friends to celebrate.
Rick didn't have many friends. He was only close to Qin Chu and Huo Mien's family.
He had talked to Qin Chu on the phone before and expressed his intention. Qin Chu also agreed with Rick's idea of a low-key wedding.
It could give Xixi a promise and also ensure her and the child's safety.
But Huo Mien was pregnant and it wasn't easy for her to fly long distances. Plus, Huo Siqian had been restless recently.
So, the two men agreed to discuss the details of the wedding after this matter was resolved.
Unfortunately … Man proposes but God disposes.
Huo Siqian's big move caught everyone off guard.
Rick knew that if Su Yu called him personally, it couldn't be fake news.
Moreover, Su Yu and Qin Chu had witnessed Huo Siqian jumping off the cliff with Huo Mien in his arms.
Rick's mood was very heavy. His personality was similar to Qin Chu's. When he was in a bad mood, he just spoke less than usual.
After answering Su Yu's call, Rick took a few of his men and went to Qin Chu's medical school in the United States. He wanted to see if he could solve Qin Chu's problem first.
On the other side, Lu Yan and Qiao Fei arrived at C City discreetly.
Since Lu Yan was an international fugitive, she would change her identity and disguise her face every time she entered the country.
At the beginning of June, C City was already very hot. People on the streets and alleys were wearing shorts, short-sleeved shirts, and light clothes like sunscreen.
Lu Yan wore simple denim shorts with suspenders. Inside, she wore a white short-sleeved shirt with Minnie Mouse on it.
Her long hair was tied into a simple ponytail. She wasn't old to begin with, so she was dressed like a high school student.
Qiao Fei had to wear denim shorts and a white short-sleeved shirt with Mickey Mouse on it. The couple's couple outfits were extremely attractive.
Even at the airport, some fans mistook Lu Yan, who was wearing sunglasses, for a popular Chinese actress.
"Mei … We love you …" A group of fans surrounded her. Lu Yan was so scared that she almost pulled out a knife.
