Chapter 695: Six hundred ninety-three, lose temper

Luo Shu reached out and placed her hand atop Lu Hanmo’s, "Let’s have dinner."

"I’ll go wash my hands first." Lu Hanmo lowered his head and planted a kiss on Luo Shu’s forehead before striding towards the washroom.

After washing his hands, Lu Hanmo walked over and sat next to Luo Shu, picked up chopsticks, grabbed some shrimp for his bowl, and began to peel off the shrimp shells. His fingers were defined and fair, long and elegant, making the act of peeling shrimp skillful and graceful. It was pleasing to the eye, and one couldn’t bear to look away.

"Yun Han is now living in Guantong Lane," Luo Shu said with a contented smile on her face as she watched Lu Hanmo peel the shrimp.

"Did he say how long he’s planning to stay?" Lu Hanmo peeled another shrimp and placed it in Luo Shu’s bowl, then started on another. Shrimp shells were very beneficial for children, but Shushu didn’t like them, so he certainly wouldn’t force her to eat them. With the nourishment of spiritual energy, how could their child be anything but excellent?

"He said he would stay here for a while, he might have hit a bottleneck in his cultivation," Luo Shu said as she saw the shrimp in Lu Hanmo’s hand had been peeled and leaned in with her mouth open.

Lu Hanmo gave an indulgent smile and fed the shrimp to Luo Shu.

"Delicious!" Luo Shu’s face beamed with satisfaction as she reached out to pick up a scrambled egg and brought it to Lu Hanmo’s lips.

Lu Hanmo opened his mouth, consuming the scrambled egg, and said with a smile, "It tastes even better when you feed it to me."

Luo Shu arched an eyebrow, her eyes sparkling like stars, a sly twinkle dancing within them, as she picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork rib and brought it to Lu Hanmo’s lips, "Since the master is so pleased, perhaps it’s the young lady’s turn to serve the master for this meal."

"Thump thump thump!" A series of urgent knocks interrupted their tender moment.

Luo Shu stood up from Lu Hanmo’s lap and moved towards the door with him.

Upon opening the door, they saw Zhou Yan standing there, panting.

"Sister-in-law Lu, Sister Xiao Ling got into a fight with someone," Zhou Yan hurriedly said upon seeing Luo Shu.

"Where?" Luo Shu asked. Zhang Xiaoling was not an impulsive person; what could have happened to incite her to such a degree that she started fighting with someone?

"Right over at the Guard’s Members Building," Zhou Yan pointed in the direction of the building.

Hearing this, Luo Shu quickly ran towards the Guard’s Members Building with Lu Hanmo quickly following.

From a distance, they could see quite a crowd gathered at the base of the Guard’s Members Building.

Standing at the center of the crowd, Zhang Xiaoling looked disheveled, her clothes torn and askew, clearly having been in a fight.

Staring angrily, Zhang Xiaoling glared at the equally disheveled Guard’s Wife, "I’m telling you, you can insult others and I might overlook it, but insulting Luo Shu is something I will not let slide easily."

"We feel the same!"

"Keep talking nonsense, and we’ll tear your mouths apart," the Guard’s Wives behind Zhang Xiaoling also looked furious. They all worked at the cake factory and respected Luo Shu and Zhang Xiaoling, naturally not allowing anyone to insult them.

Luo Shu had a slight inkling of what had happened and was touched. She stepped forward to stand beside Zhang Xiaoling.

"Luo Shu, why did you come here?" Seeing Luo Shu, Zhang Xiaoling was somewhat surprised. They were four to five hundred meters away from Luo Shu’s courtyard; Luo Shu shouldn’t have been able to hear the commotion from her place.

"I called for Sister-in-law Lu," Zhou Yan said, gasping for breath as she emerged from the crowd. Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo moved too quickly; she simply couldn’t keep up with them. She really wondered if Luo Shu was really pregnant, running so fast with such a big belly.

"Sister-in-law Lu, those Guard’s Wives said that you were being promiscuous with other men."

"Right, they were speaking very nastily, and Sister-in-law Yang couldn’t help but start fighting with them because of it."

"They also said that the child in your belly isn’t Deputy Squadron Leader Lu’s."

The expressions on Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo’s faces turned icy in an instant, their eyes filled with a bone-chilling coldness as they swept over the several Guard’s Wives opposite them.

"Who said that?!" Lu Hanmo spoke in a low and chilling tone, his gaze fierce as he eyed the Guard’s Wives.

Feeling the terrifying presence emanating from Lu Hanmo, the Guard’s Wives felt a coldness creep over their entire bodies, as if they were in an ice cellar, their legs trembling uncontrollably. They were filled with regret now.

"Who said it!" Lu Hanmo’s voice became even colder, his formidable presence pressing down on the Guard’s Wives. How dare they slander Shushu’s innocence? If there weren’t so many people watching, he would show them no mercy.

Unable to bear the immense pressure, several Guard’s Wives started crying.

"We didn’t mean to... Forgive me this once please..."

"We’ll never dare again... Please..."

They had heard that Luo Shu had been seen shopping with a man and had gathered to gossip about it. As the conversation turned to Luo Shu’s pregnancy and they calculated the dates, one of the Guard’s Wives commented that Luo Shu had been away from the Guard District during that time—how could she have gotten pregnant then?

The more they talked, the more they convinced themselves that Luo Shu had been unfaithful to Lu Hanmo.

Unbeknownst to them, their conversation was overheard by the passing Zhang Xiaoling and her colleagues, which then led to a conflict.

"No one is admitting it? Then don’t blame me for taking extreme measures," Lu Hanmo’s eyes narrowed, sharp as an eagle’s and terrifyingly cold.

"It was... Wang Jinhua who said it. She claimed that the timing of Sister-in-law Lu’s pregnancy was off, and that you two weren’t living together during that period," one of the Guard’s Wives said, trembling as she pointed at another Guard’s Wife beside her.

"I can also attest to it, she was the one who said it."

"Yes, that’s right!" Now they only wanted to find a scapegoat quickly so they wouldn’t have to endure Lu Hanmo’s crushing presence any longer. No wonder some referred to Lu Hanmo as the ’Living Yama.’ Just moments ago, they truly felt the breath of death, an overwhelming sensation that nearly suffocated them.

Wang Jinhua went pale as she saw both Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu looking at her, her body trembling violently. Finally unable to withstand the immense pressure, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.
