Faced with such an adorable baby, Su Ling was obviously tempted to accept the hug. But would the boss really not mind it if she casually hugged her daughter? Besides this was President Lu's daughter. She was more scared of that man than she was of death.

On account that she was also Lu Shaoting's niece, Su Ling picked her up nervously. As soon as she felt that soft little body, she finally understood why Little Jia seemed to be loved by everyone. She was so warm and comfortable. Involuntarily, she thought of how if that year, had she not terminated her pregnancy, her child would be at least seven years old now.

Now that she wanted to get married and have children, was it really possible?

A pair of footsteps startled Su Ling. Lu Aotian was heading her way. She was so scared that her eyes were wide open.

But Lu Aotian did not seem to mind her presence. He only took Little Jia from her and went away.

…

When they went back to the capital, the first thing Lu Shaoting wanted to do was meet Su Ling's parents. Although they had a bad relationship with their daughter, they were still her parents and had the right to know that their daughter was in a relationship.

"This may not have a happy ending." Su Ling tried to make him change his mind.

"They are your parents. What could possibly happen?"

But they hated her, alright? She had brought shame to them. She knew that they would never forgive her.

In the end, she was proven right about them and about not ending too well. Old Master Su and Old Madam Xu were the weirdest pair of parents Lu Shaoting had ever seen.

As soon as they saw Su Ling, they were like broken recorders as they rattled on about how Su Ling had ashamed their family and how they didn't know how to face their ancestors. They had even adopted another young woman to replace her.

Of course they recognized Lu Shaoting. At first, they thought their rejected daughter had caused ruckus at Lu Enterprises and Lu Shaoting was going to punish them because of her. They denied her like she was a plague.

When they learnt that their useless daughter was Lu Shaoting's girlfriend, they resorted to slandering her.

Mrs. Su was blunt as she said, "Are you aware that this child has had an abortion before? She did not do it appropriately and it may have affected her uterus. She will not be able to bear children for you. Surely you don't want to resort to surrogacy or having illegitimate children, right?"

Mr. Su also added, "This child is so unrestrained. She may just be using you for your status and power or who knows, perhaps the man she has an eye on is not you." He was implying that Su Ling was using Lu Shaoting to get close to Lu Aotian.

Mrs. Su: "You don't deserve this type of scheming woman. Take a look at our little Qianqian. Not only is she more beautiful, she is younger and more intelligent. She is more deserving of a man of your caliber."

Mr. Su: "That's right. Su Ling has been stupid since she was little. She will only bring downfall to you and your family. If Vice President Lu likes our family very much, you should definitely choose a girl like our Qianqian."

They were even about to instruct that young woman to seduce Lu Shaoting.

The man looked at them like they were slapstick comedians. What kind of parents talk about their daughter that way?

He looked at the both of them sternly. "In future, you are not allowed to claim relationships with my girlfriend. She is now a member of the Lu family."

He left the bewildered pair wanting to bite their tongues. Of course they wanted to claim relationship. She owed them for giving birth to her, right? It was for this very reason that they wanted to hook their foster daughter with him. If it was Qianqian who had gotten into the position of second Mrs. Lu, she would definitely use it to benefit her family.

On another note,

Wan Jia's career was once again facing a busy phase.

After Little Jia's birthday, she posted a photo of the three of them wearing their family outfit on EFW's official site.

As usual, the internet was in an uproar as soon as people saw it.

"Are those EFW's new models? They are so stunning! They even found a child this time."

"Those outfits are so cool! They look so beautiful on them."

"Why do I feel they look like Wan Jia's style?"

"The man's tuxedo is so gorgeous! I want to buy it for my husband."

"I want the three of them for my husband, my daughter and I."

Someone from Lu Enterprises saw it. "President Lu, Mrs. Lu and Little Miss. This looks like a family outfit!"

Since it was mentioned once, everyone saw the similarity. If one were to look at them separately, they indeed did not bear any similarity because of their differences in color but if you put them together, they indeed complemented each other.

As usual, Wan Jia had staggering preorders in just a short amount of time. Even Xu Liaowen had preordered one for him, Kara and Tangtang. There was also her father, Lin Zhou who wanted one for him, his wife and both daughters if Wan Jia could.

Luckily, this time she had prepared for it. She satisfied the requests fairly and brought the company a huge amount of income.

At the end of the month, the CEO called her and all other designers for a meeting.
