The CEO's loser wife: Rebirth of the villainous queen of alchemy

He hugged her tightly and gently whispered after planting a dozen kisses on her forehead.

"We have to share both happiness and sadness. You can\'t be a selfish, you silly idiot."

"Tell me what to do and we will make sure that the little rascal survives."

Huh? Su Lin looked up with confusion. "How are you so sure it\'s going to be a boy?" She mumbled.

"Of course. You see how he is already taking you away from me." Luther chuckled.

"Oops. My bad. Papa and mama love you very much, little darling." He kissed her tummy and pulled the woman closer to him.

"What nonsense!" Su Lin chuckled. She felt comforted at the sight of his softened gaze.

She wanted to spare the man the pain he didn\'t deserve but here he was lecturing her on selfishness. Su Lin smiled.

She then patiently explained to him all the problems they were going to inevitably face.

Luther silently listened to her, gently kissing her at times.

After a few minutes, Su Lin finished explaining, and hesitantly met his eyes.

She couldn\'t help but worry if the man would second guess being with someone like her, whose entire life was stitched with complications.

However, when his eyes met hers, the man simply revealed a warm smile.

"So we need more resources… Hmmm…" Luther pondered out loud.

"How about we send four of our brothers out to scour the entire planet in search of more resources?" He suggested.

"But what if they run into someone very dangerous?" Su Lin had also thought about that obvious solution. It was just that she was not too sure what monsters were hiding in the depths of this planet.

She wouldn\'t dare be confident enough to declare with a hundred percent certainty that she was the only enlightened being in this world.

"Hmm… And you can\'t use your spiritual energy at this time…" Luther murmured.

He could see why Su Lin was worried about this.

"What if they don\'t approach the source, but just simply notify everyone once they detect it? Then we can together decide and take the risk if needed." He asked.

"If they can sense the energy, then others can sense them as well." Su Lin worriedly explained.

"But darling, at some point, we have to take a risk." Luther sighed.

"But… how can we risk your brothers\' lives for our baby?" Su Lin buried her head inside his chest and mumbled.

She loved her little bun, but she also loved her disciples.

"Meh. You are thinking too much. Leave this to me. You work hard on taking care of yourself."

Before Su Lin could retort to that statement, Luther bent down and kissed her pouting lips, stopping her from arguing any further.

Su Lin sighed. The man\'s eyes were full of resoluteness. It was clear that there was nothing she could ever say to change his decision.

It was already late in the night. So Luther made Su Lin go to bed, while he sent a group message to everyone.

Except for Su Lin, who was fast asleep from the tiredness and Runyan, who was still immersed in her close door cultivation, all the brothers assembled in the Shi mansion in the middle of the night.

The man who was full of optimism and positivity in front of Su Lin surprisingly looked a bit different at the moment.

His eyes were deadly and gloomy akin to a sword that was just sheathed after a decade of bloodshed.

Just like how the wifey had worried about him, now he was worried about her mental condition if the child didn\'t survive.

Since Luther was in no mood to explain anything, Squirrel talked about the situation on his behalf.

Luther just kept pensively staring at the wall while the group chatted and discussed.

Even without him asking for help, they also arrived at the same conclusion he had arrived.

Only then Luther opened his mouth. "This… You don\'t have to do this." He murmured.

"What are you saying, first brother? In this world, we either grow strong or we die." Monkey shrugged his shoulders and spoke in a matter of fact manner.

"The idiot is correct. Even if not for Master, we would have anyways done this for improving our own strength. So there is no point in feeling guilty."

"Heh. Without Master, we wouldn\'t even be alive till now." Rabbit pointed.

Luther nodded and expressed his gratitude with a grunt.

It had always been like this between them. No questions asked and no gratitude mentioned.

Monkey and Rabbit were both on the verge of major breakthroughs in their fighting techniques.

Squirrel wanted to stay back and help with the research Su Lin was pursuing and tend to her medical needs in case any unexpected situation arose.

And Luther didn\'t want to leave Su Lin\'s side even for a second.

So in the end, Panda, Panther, Koala and Zi Yan decided to travel in search of energy rich resources, leaving behind Squirrel, Monkey, Rabbit and Luther in the city, to stand guard for Su Lin in case a new enemy appeared.

Luther then looked at the company resources and allocated a decent amount of funds from their emergency reserves towards this mission.

It was good that their cosmetic branch was making steady profits now and maintaining a constant influx of cash to their company funds.

So they didn\'t have to worry about money at the moment.

Luther also handed over to them all the jade protection talismans Su Lin had personally given him.

He hoped that they didn\'t have to use them.

But in case they unexpectedly encounter anyone powerful, this might at least give them a chance to escape.

Once things were settled everything happened quickly.

The brothers hurriedly returned back to their mansion and packed a few things for the trip.

They then immediately left for their treasure hunting mission in the middle of the night itself, without delaying any further.
