She was even blamed for the decline of the Bai family.
In the end, Fang Xiuzhu took the route that Ling Shuo had arranged for her. She boarded a cruise ship to study abroad.
In just a few short months, Bai Yannan and Fang Xiuzhu were both dead.
Jiujiu, on the other hand, was rubbing her nine-month-pregnant belly. Her face was full of internal injuries.
Now that she was nine months pregnant, she didn't have a child, and she couldn't find the spy. If she still couldn't find the spy, she would have to give birth.
But the problem was that her belly was fake. Where was she going to give birth to a child?
Jiujiu was extremely hurt.
Looking at Ling Shuo, who was sitting opposite her calmly, Jiujiu lifted her foot and kicked Ling Shuo's thigh. She said angrily, "Haven't you found it yet?"
Ling Shuo nodded. "Yes, I found it."
"When did you find it?" Jiujiu looked at Ling Shuo resentfully. Why didn't he say earlier that he had found it? She had to continue pretending to be pregnant. Now that the weather was warm, it was very tiring for her to do so many things on her belly every day.
"I found it a few days ago." Ling Shuo walked over and sat beside Jiujiu. He raised his hand and rubbed Jiujiu's fake belly. Then he whispered a name into Jiujiu's ear.
Hearing that name, Jiujiu's eyes widened in shock.
"It's really her?"
Jiujiu still couldn't believe that she was the spy.
Ling Shuo nodded in confirmation.
Jiujiu sighed. "I really don't know what she was thinking."
Of all things, she just had to start a revolution with a bunch of brainless people.
It was fine if it was a revolution, but the higher-ups were like a cult. They were really obsessed.
Ling Shuo touched Jiujiu's forehead and said softly, "You must have this child."
When Jiujiu gave birth, everyone thought that the Ling family would be at its most chaotic. Moreover, there was an old lady who was eyeing them covetously. At that time, those people would definitely make a move.
And at that time, Ling Shuo would wipe out that group of people.
Jiujiu sighed and raised her hand to touch her soft belly. With a sad expression, she said, "At most, I can give birth to a pillow."
Ling Shuo was instantly amused by the sadness on Jiujiu's face. He laughed and said, "A pillow is fine. I don't mind."
"I dislike it." Jiujiu rolled her eyes in annoyance. She lay in Ling Shuo's arms and complained, "Do you think it's easy for me to pretend to be pregnant?"
She, who loved outdoor sports, had been cooped up in the Ling family for almost half a year. During this time, she had to lie in bed for five to six hours every day to pretend that she was pregnant. It was terrible.
Ling Shuo touched Jiujiu's belly and replied in a low voice, "Just bear with it for another month."
Jiujiu nodded. That was the only thing she could do now. What else could she do but continue to bear with it?
After ten months of pregnancy, it was soon the day that Jiujiu was going to give birth.
The Midwife was found by the old lady. Ling Shuo had specially investigated the Midwife. She had a clean background and had given birth to at least 50 babies, if not 100. She was indeed a veteran.
As for Jiujiu, it was Qing Hua who had been taking care of her all this time.
Before Ling Shuo said anything, Jiujiu had actually felt something. However, after Ling Shuo said it, Jiujiu's feelings were particularly strong. For example, she realized that Qing Hua and the Midwife seemed to have known each other before.
Although it was a little unexpected, the two of them did know each other before.
Even though the two of them were avoiding each other's eyes, they knew each other.
Moreover, Jiujiu realized that the closer it was to her delivery, the more Qing Hua would stare at her belly in a daze. That gaze gave Jiujiu goosebumps.
Soon, it was the day that Jiujiu was going to give birth.
Jiujiu pretended to have a stomachache and was sent to the delivery room.
Qing Hua said that she would find someone to call Ling Shuo back. In fact, the old lady had already controlled the Ling Family. Even a fly couldn't fly out of the house, let alone Ling Shuo.
The old lady had already made up her mind to kill Jiujiu today. How could she call Ling Shuo back and ruin his plan?
The old lady, who was used to being in power, couldn't stand Jiujiu's words and deeds. Thinking of the things that her grandson Ling Shuo did for Jiujiu regardless of her own preferences, the old lady wanted to kill Jiujiu.
Jiujiu was sent to the delivery room. Qing Hua and the Midwife walked into the room.
Jiujiu cried out in pain as she looked at Qing Hua and the Midwife.
Qing Hua first sent all the people in the delivery room away. Then she exchanged a look with the Midwife. Then Jiujiu heard Qing Hua say to Jiujiu with red eyes, "Miss, I'm sorry."
Jiujiu pretended to look at Qing Hua in panic. "Qing Hua, what are you doing?"
Qing Hua raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face. The sadness in her eyes gradually turned into determination and cruelty that she didn't even notice.
Qing Hua said to Jiujiu in a hoarse voice, "Miss, Qing Hua can't repay you for your kindness. In my next life, Qing Hua will repay you for your kindness."
Jiujiu looked at the dagger in Qing Hua's hand. Her eyes darkened and she asked, "Qing Hua, why are you doing this?"
Qing Hua opened her mouth, but she chose to remain silent in the end.
Even if Jiujiu was going to die, she still couldn't tell Jiujiu. After all, once the news was leaked, more people would die.
Compared to Qing Hua's silence, Midwife was much more direct. There was a fierce look in her eyes. She looked at Jiujiu coldly and said word by word, "You're going to die. Why are you still talking so much nonsense? Qing Hua, cut open her belly and take out the child."
As long as she had the child, she would have a bargaining chip to threaten Ling Shuo.
Thinking of their career, the midwife couldn't help but smile.
Jiujiu looked at Midwife, who was connected to Qing Hua, and she instantly understood.
Qing Hua and Midwife got together and died.
After the incident, Qing Hua could pretend to be pitiful and say that she was deceived by Midwife and that Midwife was sent by Old Madam.
When that happened, Ling Shuo would lose his wife, child, and even be betrayed by his own grandmother. He would probably suffer the biggest blow in his life. No one knew what a devastated man would do.
Moreover, Ling Shuo was not a benevolent leader. His methods were extremely cruel. When that happened, the people behind Qing Hua could use Ling Shuo's cruel methods as an excuse to overthrow Ling Shuo's rule. This was a really good move.
Unfortunately, no matter how much the other party calculated, they never expected that she wasn't really pregnant. She had been faking it from the beginning.
Jiujiu, who had guessed the plot behind this and knew that there would be someone to take the blame even if she lost her child, stopped pretending to be in pain. She tore open her clothes and threw all the things that pretended to be a pregnant belly at Midwife's face. She raised her hand and removed Qing Hua's arms and chin to prevent Qing Hua from biting her tongue to kill herself.
