My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Two days later, it was the Lu family’s birthday banquet.

 Milky white tents were erected on the endless lawn, crystal chandeliers were hung on the trees, and a variety of delicacies were spread out on the long tables.

 There were rows of luxury cars parked in front of the villa, and a large number of distinguished men and women in suits and gowns arrived. Lu Dinghua was welcoming them.

 “Mr. Lu, I wish Mrs. Lu a happy birthday in advance.”

 “Thank you, thank you.”

 “Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu has never held a birthday banquet in the past. I didn’t expect such a grand banquet to be held this year.”

 “Of course, my son Shaoming is married, and the Lu family has a daughter-in-law now, so naturally, things are different. Look at this, my daughter-in-law handled and planned this birthday banquet herself.”

 Looking at her husband, whom she had been married to for more than 30 years, and how his eyes were shining brightly, she remembered that Lu Dinghua had looked at her like this the first time they had met when she was young.

 Over time, that look slowly faded away.

 When they went down the stairs, Lu Shaoming raised his feet and went upstairs. Someone joked and said, “Mr. Lu, Lu Shaoming is more considerate than you. Director Ning is probably coming downstairs so Lu Shaoming went to fetch her.”

 Everyone’s gazes swiveled upstairs again.

 When Lu Shaoming went upstairs, Ning Qing appeared. She wore ballet flats, but the servants carefully supported her. Today, there were many people, so they were afraid that she would fall and injure the child.

 Ning Qing raised her eyes and looked at Lu Shaoming. The man looked at her with a certain shock after seeing her. Then, his expression quickly turned black.

 Ning Qing felt wronged. She did not know how she had offended him.

 Lu Shaoming waved the servants away, held her small right hand in his right hand, and took her step by step down the stairs with his arms around her waist.

 Everyone gasped when they saw Ning Qing. Everyone knew that the first socialite in T City had a delicate little face, but remaining unchanged after five months of pregnancy, except for her bulging belly… She was the first person to achieve this feat.

 The girl’s fair and gentle little face was without a trace of makeup, but her features looked as if they had been carved out. Her beautiful hair hung down, and fishtail braids started at both sides of her head and went around to the back of her head. She looked pure and beautiful.

 She wore a gown with light gold hand embellished crystals on top. The shoulder straps from her dainty shoulders to her slender arms were especially pleasing to the eye. Inside, was a close-fitting suspender strap and a fluffy vertical red skirt, revealing her petite, snow-white calves, making it impossible to look away.

 At this time, someone could not help but exclaim, “I didn’t expect Director Ning to be so beautiful at five months pregnant. Director Ning is going to make a bunch of expectant mothers cry like this.”

“Yes, Mr. Lu, Young Master Lu, Mrs. Lu, and Young Madam Lu are amazing today. The Lu family is indeed a noble family, and the family is thriving.”

 Lu Dinghua quickly laughed and said, “You flatter us. Thank you for coming to my wife’s birthday banquet today. Everybody enjoy yourselves.”

 Today was Song Yajing’s birthday. With her parents-in-law here, Ning Qing naturally did not need to entertain the guests. She just needed to be a clever and obedient daughter-in-law.

 One should know how to act in different contexts, and one should know to take on different roles according to the occasion.

 Ning Qing lifted her lips to express her goodwill to the guests. They dispersed slowly. Ning Qing looked at Song Jin and Song Yingjie, who were in the distance, and said, “Hubby, Uncle, and Yingjie are there. Let’s go and say hello.”

 Lu Shaoming held Ning Qing’s little hand and refused to let her go. The man’s facial features were cold and hard, and his thin, red lips were parted. He looked at her skirt with disgust. “Ning Qing, what are you wearing? You don’t look like a pregnant woman at all.”

 Other pregnant women would wear white or grey cotton and comfortable clothes. Only she wore clothes as beautiful and bright as a normal person’s. Usually, he tolerated her, but there were so many people here today, and she still didn’t know how to restrain herself.

 Ning Qing looked down at her clothes. There was no problem. “Hubby, what’s wrong with you? I’m dressed so well. I’m not revealing anything.”

 Lu Shaoming did not speak.

 Ning Qing looked towards the kitchen. “Hubby, I don’t have time to discuss this with you. Don’t forget our agreement.”

 Ning Qing broke free from his grip and trotted to the kitchen, lifting her gown.

 Lu Shaoming: “…” He has been deserted!

 …

 Song Yajing came beside Song Jin. Song Jin, with red wine in one hand, ended the conversation with his friends and looked at Song Yajing. He laughed and said, “Sister, you are beautiful today.”

 Song Yajing looked down and smiled. “Brother, I’m 55 years old this year. Why would I care about looking beautiful? Even you’re teasing me!”

 Song Jin looked to Lu Dinghua not far away. “Is Dinghua teasing you too?”

 Song Yajing followed his gaze and saw Lu Dinghua entertaining the guests, but his gaze seemed to fall on her casually. His eyes were bright and burning. Her skirt was slitted on the right side. She had not worn high-heeled shoes for a long time and felt a little uncomfortable. But Lu Dinghua’s gaze traveled from her high-heeled shoes to her slitted gown several times.
