Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2673 - 2609: Wants a Child

Twenty years have passed, yet she appears remarkably young.

"What is Lu Shuangshuang's objective in luring Sixth Young Master Jiang to the island this time?" she inquired directly.

"She... desires to conceive a child with Sixth Young Master, and also... wishes to send him... away."

Upon hearing this, Chiang Xiao was utterly dumbfounded.

What?

Lu Shuangshuang intends to have a child with her father?

"Send him where? Where is 'away'?" Chiang felt a stirring of anxiety, sensing she might finally uncover long-held mysteries.

"I am unaware; the young lady did not divulge such details to me."

It felt like a sudden, jarring plunge after an ascent on a roller coaster.

Chiang Xiao whirled around, her anger directed at Lu Shuangshuang, for a fleeting moment contemplating using the Illusionary Talisman Diagram on her.

However, it was possible they still required Lu Shuangshuang to draw out those operating from the shadows.

At the very least, it was now apparent that Lu Shuangshuang was complicit with the individuals who had wronged Sixth Young Master, the very ones who constantly sought to abduct him. Her intention to deliver him to them surely amounted to collusion.

"Why does Lu Shuangshuang desire... Sixth Young Master's child?"

If she wants his child, isn't she...?

"The young lady loves Sixth Young Master. She and Mr. Jun have been unable to have a child for many years, so she wishes to have one with Sixth Young Master."

Pfft!

Chiang Xiao nearly spewed out her drink at this revelation.

She truly felt that bringing this Fei Cui along had been an astute decision, as Fei Cui consistently furnished her with astonishing answers and startling truths.

So, Lu Shuangshuang still harbored affections for her father?

What was the story with Mr. Jun?

"Who is Mr. Jun?"

"He is Lu Junyou, who is perpetually by the Elder Master's side."

Lu Junyou...

It seemed this individual was not without his own complexities.

She absolutely must caution her father to be wary of him.

"Is he involved with Lu Shuangshuang?"

"The young lady has been secretly involved with Mr. Jun for over a decade."

Ah, a woman faithfully awaiting her betrothed's return!

It turned out she had been intimately involved with someone close to her grandfather for a considerable time.

And Lu Junyou permitted Lu Shuangshuang to conceive a child with Sixth Young Master?

Was this man utterly mad?

Or perhaps his lack of genuine affection for Lu Shuangshuang meant their union was merely born of physical necessity?

Lu Shuangshuang was truly reprehensible; she had been with another man for more than ten years, yet still sought to force her father into marriage – such audacity!

"The two children of the Jiang Family, the ones rumored to have been adopted by Lu Shuangshuang, have no connection to her, correct?"

"Jiang Yunqing and Jiang Yuncun; they were merely pawns the young lady deliberately allowed to stray, originally intended to inherit Sixth Young Master's portion. Now that Sixth Young Master has returned, and there is a daughter, they are planning to pit this brother-sister pair against Chiang Xiao later."

Two pawns?

Mere fools from the Jiang Family.

"Which members of the Jiang Family are conspiring with you?"

Fei Cui's gaze grew distant, her tone stiff as she replied, "Some information was obtained by the young lady through Jiang Yunqing and Jiang Yuncun; some was relayed by Jiang Yunqing to curry favor with the young lady. Jiang Yunqing and Jiang Yuncun frequently eavesdrop on Fourth Master of the Jiang Family during his phone calls."

These two imbeciles.

"Aside from them, who else is a traitor within the Jiang Family?"

"The kitchen's... Deputy Steward, and... a woman."

"A woman? Who?"

"That is the young lady's own contact; she did not permit me to know..."

Chiang Xiao felt an overwhelming urge to erupt in curses.

So close to the crucial moment, just a little more information was needed.
