Xiao Jianren estimated that the time was about right and returned to the villa. After greeting Xiao Wenyao that she was going upstairs to take a shower, she hurried back to her bedroom in a rush.

Locking the door, she took out the small white paper bag from her pocket and opened it, revealing three small white pills inside.

Xiao Jianren picked up one of the pills and looked at it closely in front of her eyes, as if it wasn't a pill but a tiny piece of gold.

"Hahaha..." Xiao Jianren laughed, her laughter laced with excitement, and a hint of elation at being freed from something she had suppressed for so long!

Xiao Jianren walked over to the dressing table, placed the pills on the surface, and haphazardly grabbed a bottle of makeup remover to use as a rolling pin, grinding all three pills into powder.

She then wrapped the paper bag back up and hid it in the drawer. Once Monday came and Xiao Wenyao went to the company, she would have her chance.

After simply changing her clothes and adjusting her mood, she went downstairs for breakfast. By this time, Xiao Wenyao and Jian Hongmei were already sitting at the dining table enjoying their breakfast.

"Jianren is here, come have breakfast quickly."

Jian Hongmei called out to Xiao Jianren in a good mood. She had already heard from her husband that their daughter had been going out for business every day, which made Jian Hongmei feel both gratified and heartbroken.

"Mom, how are you feeling?"

Xiao Jianren sat down next to Jian Hongmei and thoughtfully placed a steamed soup dumpling on Jian Hongmei's bowl. Jian Hongmei truly felt more and more that her daughter was a caring little cotton jacket.

"I'm feeling fine, dear. You should take better care of your own health. After this, you won't have to go out and drink anymore, it's too harmful to your body."

"I know, Mom. I'll always stay at home and take care of you."

Xiao Wenyao watched this scene of a devoted mother and filial daughter at the dining table and nodded in satisfaction. This was the family atmosphere he wanted. It seemed that the Xiao family would only get better and better in the future.

At that moment, Xiao Wenyao's phone rang. Xiao Wenyao glanced at the screen and saw it was Zhao Secretary. Normally, Zhao would not call him on weekends unless there was a special circumstance. Could there be an urgent matter at the company that required his attention?

Xiao Wenyao put down his chopsticks and quickly answered the call.

"Xiao Zhao? What's the matter?"

An excited male voice came through the phone: "CEO Xiao, have you seen the news? X International will be moving their headquarters to Hai City next week, and they'll also be tendering for many cooperative projects. I've looked at the tendering conditions, and there are no restrictions whatsoever, meaning we might have a chance to cooperate with X International!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wenyao's eyes widened in disbelief. "Are you serious?"

If this were true, and as long as Xiao Corporation could seize the opportunity to partner with X International, Xiao Corporation would definitely be able to turn the tide and return to the top!

"It's true, CEO Xiao. X International just released their tendering projects. There are over 100 projects in the apparel category alone. Just think, our XJ brand should be able to compete for one or two suitable projects from those."

Xiao Wenyao's heart was now convinced. He immediately told Zhao Secretary, "Okay, you notify a few of the senior executives. We'll meet at the conference room at the company at 9 o'clock to discuss this matter in detail while we still have time."

"Understood, CEO Xiao. I'll go take care of it right away!"

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Wenyao could no longer contain the excitement and joy on his face.

"Hahaha! Mei Mei, our Xiao family is truly going to turn the tide and make a comeback!"

Jian Hongmei had also heard bits and pieces of what Xiao Wenyao said on the phone and understood what he was so happy about, her face also full of excitement. "It seems the heavens are finally looking favorably upon our Xiao family!"

Xiao Wenyao stroked Jian Hongmei's still flat belly. "This means our son is the little lucky charm for our Xiao family, bringing us good fortune!"

Xiao Jianren: Hmph, little lucky charm? What little lucky charm!

But in a little while, Xiao Wenyao would be leaving. Wouldn't that be the chance to get rid of this so-called little lucky charm?

Thinking this, Xiao Jianren gripped her chopsticks tightly, her heart rate quickening uncontrollably.

Xiao Wenyao was in such a good mood because of this sudden good news that he even had an extra bowl of congee for breakfast.

Before leaving, he specifically instructed Aunt Zhang: "Prepare some more nutritious meals. Take good care of the lady of the house. Once everything is settled, I'll give you a raise!"

Hearing this, Aunt Zhang nodded excitedly, "Don't worry, sir. I'll definitely take good care of the lady."

Only then did Xiao Wenyao leave the villa with peace of mind.

Seeing that Xiao Wenyao had finally left, Xiao Jianren breathed a sigh of relief and began planning how to secretly slip the abortion pills into Jian Hongmei's food.

"Madam, shall I cook some crucian carp soup for you at noon? I just bought some this morning. They're really fresh."

Jian Hongmei nodded. "Sure, you arrange it. Jianren, help me back to the room to rest. I'm a bit tired."

Xiao Jianren: ...You need help for just two steps? Acting like an empress dowager now?

Although she was reluctant in her heart, she still carefully helped Jian Hongmei back to the bedroom.

After Jian Hongmei fell asleep, Xiao Jianren returned to her own room, put the powdered pills from her pocket into her pocket, and then ran to the living room. She pretended to watch TV but kept her eyes fixed on any movement coming from the kitchen.

"It's no use just waiting like this. I need to take the initiative and find a way to lure Aunt Zhang out of the kitchen."

Thinking this, Xiao Jianren stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

"Young Miss, why have you come to the kitchen?"

"Oh, I was bored watching TV, so I thought I'd see if there were any snacks or fruit in the fridge." Xiao Jianren lied smoothly, glancing at the pot and feigning curiosity. "Aunt Zhang, what are you cooking there?"

Aunt Zhang smiled. "It's crucian carp soup for the lady. It's good for the baby."

"Young Miss, the kitchen has too much smoke and grease. You should go back to the living room and I'll wash some fruit and bring it out for you."

Xiao Jianren shook her head. Although a little uneasy, she still wore a polite smile on her face. "No need, I'll wash it myself."

"But..." Aunt Zhang wanted to say something more but was cut off by Xiao Jianren. 𝔣𝔯𝖊𝔢𝖜𝔢𝔟𝖓𝖔𝔳𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝖔𝔪

"Oh, that's right, Aunt Zhang. I think I have an express delivery package left at the villa's main entrance. Could you please help me bring it in?"

Xiao Jianren smiled sweetly, as if Aunt Zhang's refusal would hurt this young miss's feelings.

Aunt Zhang nodded. "Okay, Young Miss. Let me go get it for you right away."

Seeing Aunt Zhang leave the kitchen, Xiao Jianren immediately opened the paper bag in the next second, lifted the pot lid, and dumped the entire bag of powder into the pot. She then quickly replaced the lid, put the empty paper bag back into her pocket, and left the kitchen as if nothing had happened.

"Young Miss, I didn't see any express delivery package for you at the entrance." Aunt Zhang had looked around the front entrance but didn't see anything resembling an express package. She thought maybe someone had taken it and hurried back to report to Xiao Jianren.

Xiao Jianren had just committed her misdeed and ran straight into Aunt Zhang after leaving the kitchen, almost scaring her heart out of her chest. She struggled to suppress her anger, her voice calm and indifferent. "Oh, I must have remembered incorrectly then. It's fine, you go ahead and get back to work."

With that, she turned and went back upstairs to her bedroom.

Aunt Zhang watched Xiao Jianren's retreating back, still somewhat dazed. "I must have remembered incorrectly," and that's it? She didn't even bother checking? Aunt Zhang really couldn't understand what was going on in the minds of these wealthy people.
