Chapter 2997 The Killer Maniac Lu Yan 17

“Huh? What’s happened to them?” Hearing this, Xixi began to panic.

“It’s a little complicated. I’m going to head out for a bit, and you can go to bed early.”

“Rick…” Xixi really wanted to know what was going on. She tugged on Rick’s sleeve and wouldn’t let him leave.

Rick turned his head and looked at the pitiful expression in Xixi’s eyes. His tone became gentle. “You are pregnant now, and the most important thing is to pay attention to your health. It would be better for you not to ask about these things. The more you know, the more you’ll worry, and it doesn’t help. Just leave everything to me to handle.”

“You need to be careful, too.”

“Okay.”

With this, Rick went out of the villa and urged her and the servants a few more times before leaving.

“Take care of Young Madam, don’t let anyone touch her.”

“Yes.”

Xixi was less than two months pregnant. The two had been together for many years. Now, they were finally going to become parents.

In Rick’s eyes, Xixi’s pregnancy was a reason for both joy and worry.

He loved Xixi very deeply, so naturally, he loved the child as well.

But with Rick’s current situation, if someone were to find out about this, then both Xixi and the child would be at risk.

Rick’s family had always had a lot of enemies, and he was afraid that many people were waiting to attack him at his weakest point.

But Xixi seemed very happy and had been very careful after becoming pregnant.

She even paid strict attention to her diet. Although she loved to eat cold things, she even gave up ice cream for the sake of her unborn child.

The only thing missing from all of this was a wedding…

Because of Rick’s family’s mafia background, it was impossible to host a wedding and reception for guests.

Telling everyone that he had a wife would undoubtedly be another weakness.

He was not willing to let Xixi divulge too much because he was afraid that she would be in danger.

So when he learned that Xixi was pregnant, Rick thought a lot about it.

He finally decided to find a beautiful island and celebrate with friends.

Rick didn’t have many friends, but he had a close relationship with Qin Chu and Huo Mian.

Before, when he told Qin Chu about this over the telephone, Qin Chu also agreed with Rick that he should hold a low-key wedding.

That way, he could express his commitment to Xixi and also guarantee the safety of her and her children.

It was just happenstance that Huo Mian was also pregnant, so she couldn’t fly long distances, and Huo Siqian was lurking just around the corner.

So the two men talked it over, and after discussing the matter, they sorted out the details of the wedding and decided to hold it after this was all over.

It was a pity… Man plans, God laughs.

Huo Siqian’s big move caught everyone off guard.

Rick knew that if Su Yu was calling him personally, it must not be fake news.

What’s more, Su Yu and Qin Chu watched Huo Siqian jump cliff while holding Huo Mian.

Rick’s mood is very heavy. His personality was similar to that of Qin Chu. When he was in a bad mood, he spoke even less than usual.

After receiving Su Yu’s phone call, Rick took a few men and went directly to the medical school where Qin Chu was studying in the United States to see if anything could be done to help Qin Chu.

Meanwhile, Lu Yan and Qiao Fei had arrived in City C in a low-key manner.

Because Lu Yan was an internationally-wanted criminal, she changed her identity every time she entered the country, and her changed looks let her slip through easily.

At the beginning of June, C City was already very hot, and the crowds in the streets and alleys were wearing short-sleeved short-sleeved shirts, and light-weight clothing to protect them from the sun.

Lu Yan was dressed in simple denim shorts with suspenders, and a white, short-sleeve Minnie Mouse t-shirt.

Her long hair was tied back into a simple ponytail, and although she wasn’t that old to begin with, she now looked like a high school student.

In order to coordinate with her, Qiao Fei was also wearing denim shorts, and a white short-sleeved Mickey Mouse t-shirt. The matching couple outfit was simply adorable.

Even at the airport, people mistook the pair, who was were wearing sunglasses, for Chinese entertainment celebrities.

“Hey, beauty… we love you!” A group of fans engulfed them, and Lu Yan scared was so scared she almost pulled out a throwing knife.
