That was why Lin Nian had panicked and snuck out to call Lu Jiuan for help.
Lin Nian said through her tears, "I don't like this child. In fact, if it weren't for this baby, I never would have married Shen Feng!"
She knew Lu Jiuan still had feelings for her. After all, they were the official couple in the book, and they had already slept together.
'To keep a simp like him wrapped around her finger, she had to make him think he still had a chance.'
Sure enough, Lu Jiuan didn't like the child either. The baby was the bond between Lin Nian and Shen Feng, proof of their intimate relationship.
When he heard the child was sick, Lu Jiuan was secretly pleased, though of course, he couldn't laugh out loud.
He said gently, full of concern, "Don't overthink it. No one else knows you were the one who fed her. Besides, maybe the baby was just born frail. She might have had some underlying health issue that caused this."
