Chapter 695 Our Bellies are the Same Size

Gu Bailu was still on her way to the reception pavilion.

A fat person came running over from a distance. Gu Bailu’s heart tightened, and she hurried to stand to the side. This girl didn’t have to be so enthusiastic when she saw her!

“Lulu, you’re back! That’s great!”

Gu Bailu had just seen her life flash before her eyes, when Bu Yaolian’s chubby face appeared in front of her.

Thankfully, she knew that Gu Bailu was pregnant, and didn’t dare run at her anymore.

“Hehe… Lulu, your belly is as big as mine.” Bu Yaolian was surprised and a little proud.

Gu Bailu wanted to laugh too…

Your belly is big, but I’m pregnant.

What is there to be proud about?

She pinched Bu Yaolian’s plump face, which felt unexpectedly nice.

“You need to lose weight. I’m really scared that you’ll one day only be able to move by rolling around.”

Gu Bailu looked at her. She seemed to have gained weight again.

“The dishes made by the cooks in your house are too delicious! Many of them are my favorites,” Bu Yaolian said in delight.

So… that was why she and Ah Luo were friends.

“I’m bringing the cooks back to Prince Zi’s house today so that you don’t get too fat that you can only roll around, and then blame me for it,” Gu Bailu said half-jokingly.

Bu Yaolian grabbed her hand. “Then I’ll go with you to Prince Zi’s house. In any case, I have to follow you.”

Gu Bailu patted her hand. “Alright, alright. I was just kidding. How’s the house?”

Bu Yaolian patted her chest and said, “You can relax with me around. I’ve been helping my grandmother’s family since I was ten; this is a piece of cake.”

Bu Yaolian was full of confidence.

This was the only thing she was confident about.

Gu Bailu knew that while Bu Yaolian might look stupid, she was in fact very smart and capable.

The Bu family was a major family with businesses in three nations; as the only descendant of the Bu family, she naturally knew how to manage business.

That was why when Gu Bailu left, she entrusted the Gu house to Bu Yaolian.

Sure enough, when Bu Yaolian gave her the account book, Gu Bailu was shocked. “You earned so much?”

In less than two months, she had earned twenty thousand gold taels.

One had to know that the Gu family didn’t have many stores that could make money. The good ones had all been sold off by Ye Yunshu.

“This is nothing. It’s only a short period of time, and a lot of the businesses haven’t taken effect yet, so it doesn’t look like a lot of profit.” Bu Yaolian wasn’t bothered.

In less than two months, her methods had yet to truly see a net profit, or she would’ve made a lot more money.

Gu Bailu blinked at Bu Yaolian. The more she looked, the more pleased she was. If Bu Yaolian and Qian’er could swap blood, everything would be kept within the “family.”

The moment this idea struck her, Gu Bailu immediately felt that Bu Yaolian was the best candidate.

She hurriedly asked, “Little Lian’er, do you want to get thinner?”

Bu Yaolian jumped out of her chair. “Yes! Even in my dreams, I want to get thinner!”

“Let me tell you something, and you can think about it.”

Bu Yaolian leaned over and asked, “What is it? Tell me, as long as I can do it.”

“For you, it’ll be very beneficial.”

However, she couldn’t guarantee what things would be like after they swapped blood.

She told Bu Yaolian about Qian’er swapping out her blood.

Bu Yaolian asked worriedly, “Will it be dangerous?”
