Chapter 683 Are you alright? Is your stomach bothering you?
uo Ningxi also raised her head from Li Bichen's embrace, looking at the man's sharp jawline, secretly awestruck.Wow, so cool!As expected of a top courtesan who has been around the block, even mimickin..."Beware!"
Li Bochen reacted quickly, grabbing Luo Ningxi's wrist and pulling her towards him!
Luo Ningxi almost instinctively reacted with both hands protecting her stomach, causing her entire body to straight up crash into Li Bichen's arms!
Damn it, that just now, won't it cause a miscarriage
Her pretty cheek was painfully pressed against the man's solid chest, making her clench her lower lip in pain!
"In such a chaotic place, wouldn't you be more careful!" Li Bichen shielded the woman's back with his hand, his handsome brows slightly furrowed. What did it mean that she was clutching her stomach when she fell
Don't girls care most about their looks
Lu Ningxi softened in his arms for a long time before she reacted, her pounce… was quite awkward.
She suddenly pushed Li Bichen away, flustered and stammering, "I also just wanted to get the things out quickly. Besides... who knew these things were so heavy."
Li Bochen didn't ignore the woman's flustered movements. His cold gaze swept towards her stomach, "What are you doing holding your stomach Is your stomach hurting"
Luo Ningxi was startled, her mind racing to come up with a countermeasure.
She absolutely couldn't let Li Bochen find out she was pregnant!
"Of course my tummy hurts!"
Luo Ningxi deliberately covered her stomach with her hand again, her beautiful face crumpled into a ball, "Women have those few days of stomachaches every month, do I need to explain more"
But your day isn't today.
Li Bocen's voice grew colder, his scrutinizing gaze closing in step by step, almost making Luo Ningxi unable to hold it together.
Both of them have been divorced for so long……
How can this bastard still remember his own birthday!
That's truly messed up!
"I'm not 100% accurate every month, let alone... We're already divorced, and you're still concerned about when my aunt comes to visit How about that That's creepy."
Li Boheng's eyes were fixed on Luo Ningxi. When they were together, her days weren't exactly precise, but they wouldn't be off by more than three days. Calculating by the divorce date, it was impossible that it had been recent days...
Lu Ningxi saw that Li Boche's gaze was still on her. This dog man wouldn't have discovered something, would he
Just when she was feeling anxious and guilty, the sound of workers came from afar.
"Mr. Luo! We've found something here, please come over!"
Luo Ningxi's breath tightened abruptly, almost reflexively looking in the direction of the worker's voice, "What did you find"
As she spoke, she naturally walked toward the workers.
Li Bochen watched Luo Ningxi slowly walk away, then frowned deeply before slowly following after her.
A worker handed a small mortise and tenon piece to Luoning Xi, "Mr. Lu, take a look at this mortise and tenon piece. It seems that the structure of the wood doesn't quite match the drawings you gave us!"
Lo Ningxi took it over and looked back and forth carefully. Only then did he see that this piece of mortise and tenon wood was missing a corner compared to the normal one!
She immediately opened the design blueprints. This pavilion relied on mortise and tenon joinery, each piece interlocking seamlessly. If one wooden block had a problem, it could easily trigger a chain reaction, like dominoes falling—the whole structure would collapse!
"This piece of wood, it looks like it was smoothed down artificially"
A low, magnetic voice suddenly came from behind.
Luo Ningxi clenched the piece of wood, "This mortise and tenon structure, if a piece of wood is misplaced, it will cause the pavilion to lose its center of gravity during the shifting process and collapse! In other words... the collapse of the pavilion is not very likely to be man-made!"
If there were problems with the tenon and mortise during construction, they should have been discovered long ago.
Li Bochen's eyes also flashed a cold and sharp gleam.
The old man and the Pei family's CEO are coming to the gazebo, but someone destroyed a key structure of the gazebo. Who did this, and why
The person in charge's face immediately turned pale. "It must be Li Jiancheng! He caused so much havoc at our resort, and now he's even harming his own father! This wealthy family is truly too dark."
Luo Ningxi lowered her head slightly, catching a glimpse of Li Boche's face from the corner of her eye. It had darkened considerably; he was likely worried that the visitor was here for Old Master Li, after all, that was his father.
"It shouldn't be Li Jiancheng, the troublemakers he sent came after the pavilion collapsed."ala, so the charity auction for tonight began after the dance.However, Lu Ningxi was resting in the room and naturally didn't catch up. Yu Chengnan wasn't very determined and just picked a random one,...
