Chapter 17 Yingying, Mom didn't mean it

"No, it's not. This is for you."

Lu Yinghan's eyes suddenly opened wide.

She was shocked for a moment and then she calmed down.

His eyes were full of inquiry and suspicion.

She didn't mean to do that.

But the Lu family’s attitude towards her made her really unable to understand why He Shu would send dessert to herself.

And it was Lu Xuanyao’s favorite strawberry mille-feuille.

Lu Yinghan's eyes made He Shu suddenly not know what to say.

Facing his own daughter.

She actually felt embarrassed.

"Mom just felt it was wrong to yell at you like that tonight..."

He Shu's voice became smaller and smaller.

It’s wrong to yell at her, so what?

Bring a cake over to calm her down and tell her not to care about what happened today?

Is it connected to the previous things?

She didn’t know whether Lu Yinghan would forgive her, but she knew.

If this happened to her, she would definitely feel uncomfortable.

"Yeah... I'm fine, just put it on the table."

"Ah, okay."

Lu Yinghan didn't think too much about it, but instead found it novel.

This was the first time He Shu brought food to herself.

She sat on the chair, watching He Shu come forward and gently place the mille-feuille cake on the table, waiting for her to leave.

He Shu had nothing in her hands, and she rubbed her hands together in a bit of a panic.

Lu Yinghan said it was okay.

But she didn't seem to be alright...

"Um, Yingying, I didn't mean to say that to you today. I was a little anxious at the time..."

He Shu found that her mouth was becoming more and more confusing at this moment.

She said this as if she could treat Lu Yinghan casually in this way whenever she got angry in the future.

He Shu, knowing that what she said was wrong, was a little speechless...

"Mom, I know. You don't have to tell me. I have to do my homework now. Can you please go out for a while?"

Lu Yinghan raised her head and looked into He Shu's eyes without blinking, with a hint of request in her eyes.

She didn't know what attitude to use to deal with her mother's attitude.

The past life came to mind. After Lu Xuanyao disappeared, this mother, whom he had rarely talked to, pushed him directly.

He pushed and shoved, saying unpleasant words and yelling at Lu Yinghan without any mercy.

Just like tonight.

"Why didn't you keep an eye on your sister? Huh? How could you not see her when she's that old? What were you thinking?"

Thirteen-year-old Lu Yinghan

After receiving a scolding from her biological mother

Completely give up.

She pursed her lips, glanced at He Shu who was shocked, lowered her head and continued to work on her homework, gently smoothed out the wrinkles, picked up the pencil and started writing.

He Shu stood there in a daze, the pain in her heart intensifying and spreading in her chest.

She seemed to know what caused the palpitations in the garden a few days ago...

The window facing the garden leads to the corridor leading to the warehouse.

So Lu Yinghan passed by in the corridor that day?

It's just that I haven't discovered it yet...

Although she still calls her mom, it is mostly a polite expression between strangers…

"Mom, look at the dinosaur I made with plasticine. When my little sister comes out, I will give her the little dinosaur~"

The memories that had been buried deep in the bottom of the world vaguely popped up in He Shu's mind, but she was not quite sure what the scene was like.

But she still remembers Lu Yinghan's voice clearly.

Soft and cute.

She is attached to herself and full of expectations for Yaoyao, the baby in her belly who has not yet been born.

"Ying, Yingying...Okay, Mom will go out now and won't disturb you from doing your homework."

He Shu has begun to choke up.

With a mouth that was closed due to sadness and a strong nasal tone, he spoke these words carefully.

After saying that, he covered his mouth with his hand and quickly left Lu Yinghan's room.

"Well...why are you crying?"

Hearing the sob in He Shu's voice, Lu Yinghan raised her eyebrows in surprise.

I shook my head and ignored all this, writing today's homework seriously.

He Shu staggered back to her room. The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt.

Apart from the fact that Lu Yinghan's living conditions were poor, which made He Shu feel a little sorry for her.

She felt a little aggrieved that she treated herself like that.

This emotion accounts for a larger proportion.

If Lu Yinghan knew this thought, she would definitely roll her eyes at me.

Are you blaming her?

Back in his room, Lu Xiong was sitting at the desk in his room, reading a book seriously.

"Oh, you're back. Where have you been?"

Hearing the door opening, Lu Xiong spoke to He Shu in a doting tone without even raising his head.

There was no response, and a few sobs were heard.

Lu Xiong was so scared that he quickly looked up and dropped the book in his hand.

When he came in front of He Shu, he was nervous and at a loss.

"Wife, what's wrong? Who made you cry? Tell me! I'll help you vent your anger!"

He Shu wiped her tears and stared at Lu Xiong fiercely.

Suddenly he clenched his fist and hit Lu Xiong's arm.

"It's all your fault!! Let me ask you! Have you ever told Yingying to give the room to Yaoyao?"

The memory of his death once again came back to Rikuo's mind.

He gasped.

broken!

I forgot to change Lu Yinghan’s room!

"My dear wife... yes, but she never came to tell me about it later. I thought Yingying lived well, so I forgot about it..."

He Shu's eyes suddenly became unfriendly.

Is this because the accommodation is good?

I don’t even eat the desserts in the refrigerator, thinking they are Yaoyao’s.

It was impossible for him to tell Lu Xiong about the room!

"Do you know where Yingying lives now?"

"Ah? I, I don't know. I asked Butler Liu to arrange it. There are so many guest rooms in the house..."

Lu Xiong was eager to explain, and when he said the word "guest room", his heart skipped a beat.

The tingling sensation left him speechless.

Looking at his wife guiltily, his face darkened.

Family members are not allowed to stay in the guest rooms at will. This is a rule set by Lu Xiong for the sake of the Lu family's reputation.

There are many rooms in the big villa, many of which are used as other spaces for children, including the eldest son’s study, the second son’s dance room and recording studio, the third son’s design room, the dressing rooms for my wife and Yingying, and a special toy house, all for Yingying.

There were so many rooms that Lu Xiong had always thought that Lu Yinghan's room was not much worse...

If Yingying doesn’t live in the guest room, then where does she live?

How could He Shu not be familiar with her husband's expression?

She hit Lu Xiong again and said angrily

"Lu Xiong! You didn't keep your promise to the child?! After Yingying's room was taken away and given to Yaoyao, she has been living in the warehouse! If housekeeper Liu hadn't taken me there at night, I wouldn't even know where our warehouse is! And Yingying lives there!"

The image in He Shu's mind was still Lu Yinghan's cold eyes. She felt sad and aggrieved, and her voice was completely choked up when she spoke the last part.

"What?!"

Lu Xiong was shocked, and the trembling of his heart made him feel pain even when breathing.

His eyes widened.

Without blinking again...
