At their first meeting, Sang Wan took one look at Lu Tingzhou and was immediately drawn to him. At their next meeting, she approached him with a purpose, deliberately teasing and provoking him. Som...
Chapter 160 March 3rd, I Get Married
He stared blankly at his always aloof third son, wondering if his ears were blurring due to old age.
"You...what did you say?"
Lu Jinxuan and Tang Qinlan had surprisingly similar expressions, staring straight at Sang Wan's belly.
Shocked, stunned, unbelievable.
Lu Tingzhou seemed not to notice the reactions of the crowd. His gaze fell on Sang Wan beside him, and his eyes softened instantly.
The anger on the old man's face dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into a complex surprise.
"You kid..."
"You're in such a hurry to get the certificate, so you're pregnant?"
Lu Tingzhou held Sang Wan's hand, clasping their fingers tightly together, his tone more serious than ever before.
"Correction again."
"I've planned to get married a long time ago."
"It has nothing to do with the child."
"Whether we have children or not, we will get the marriage certificate on that day."
The old man was completely delighted.
I didn't expect that my second and third sons, who seemed to be the most unruly, would give birth to a love-sick child.
“Okay, okay!”
He said "good" three times in a row, and the wrinkles on his face were all smiling.
He looked at Sang Wan with a look of love and concern that he had never seen before.
"Wanwan, please take care of yourself in the future."
"Let's put work on hold for now, huh?"
Lu Tingzhou spoke before Sang Wan could answer.
"Can you not stop?"
He glanced at the old man with a hint of boasting in his tone.
"It was very hard for her to give birth to two children for me at once."
"How can we still let her work?"
The living room fell into deathly silence again.
Everyone widened their eyes and looked at Lu Tingzhou as if he were a monster.
The old man just picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, trying to calm down.
Hearing this, he spat out all the water with a "puff".
Mist filled the air under the light.
Sang Wan watched this dramatic scene, and the tense atmosphere instantly turned into a family comedy.
She couldn't help it, and the corners of her mouth curved into a beautiful arc.
The old man didn't even bother to wipe his mouth, pointing at Lu Tingzhou, his fingers shaking.
"You...what do you mean?"
Lu Tingzhou glanced at his father with an indifferent expression.
"Literally."
"Don't understand?"
He paused and added.
"I'm not so old that I can't understand what I'm saying and need explanation."
Lu Jinxuan stood aside, smiling and acting as an interpreter.
"Grandpa, my aunt is pregnant with twins."
"Twins?"
Lu Qiming could no longer suppress the smile on his face. He grinned but still pretended to glare at Lu Tingzhou fiercely.
"You little brat! If you keep talking to me like that, I'll give all my shares to my grandson!"
Lu Tingzhou didn't even raise his eyelids.
"I have custody of your grandson until he turns eighteen."
"As long as you're happy."
“…”
The old man was choked by him and couldn't breathe.
He simply ignored his irritating son and turned to look at Sang Wan, smiling like a child asking for candy.
"Wanwan, are they really twins?"
Sang Wan looked at him and felt inexplicably warm in her heart.
She pursed her lips and nodded slightly.
She felt that Lu Qiming was actually not difficult to get along with.
He and Lu Tingzhou are very similar in many ways. They are both the kind of people who are cold on the outside but warm on the inside. They just look intimidating.
"Okay, great."
The old man clapped his hands excitedly.
"Our Lu family is small, and we've never had twins!"
"If I go out fishing, Director Wang will be so pissed off that he'll die."
The Mr. Wang he mentioned is his old business rival and also an old enemy in the fishing circle.
Lu Tingzhou looked at the old man's childish appearance, and a rare smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
He cleared his throat, as if he was announcing some state event.
"Just to inform you."
"On March 3rd, I'm getting married."
"I welcome anyone who wants to come."
"I'll clean up after anyone who wants to cause trouble."
The old man was glad that he didn't have a heart disease.
Otherwise, tonight, I would have been tortured to death by this son's series of bombshells.
He just took a deep breath and then brought it up again.
"Your marriage is such a big thing, couldn't you tell me in advance?"
"Is our Lu family so unruly?"
"I learned about the marriage certificate from the Internet."
"You only informed me after the wedding date was set."
"Do you still see me as your father?"
Seeing this, Sang Wan quickly reached out and gently patted the old man on the back, speaking softly to ease the atmosphere.
"Dad, don't be angry."
"Tingzhou just doesn't want you to worry. He just has an unpleasant mouth."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a tightness around his waist.
Lu Tingzhou came closer at some point, his hot breath spraying on her ear, his voice low and ambiguous.
"Didn't you say that my mouth is beautiful?"
"It feels so good when we kiss."
Sang Wan's face suddenly became hot.
Fortunately, the Lu family’s living room was big enough, and there was only Lu Jinxuan on their side, so they were some distance apart.
"Do you have any shame?"
She lowered her voice, feeling embarrassed and annoyed, and reached out to twist his leg hard.
Before he could use all his strength, his wrist was grasped by a warm hand.
Lu Tingzhou looked at her with a smile on his face, and the doting in his eyes almost overflowed.
This scene was all seen by the old man.
He felt warm in his heart as he watched the two of them being so intimate with each other without paying attention to anyone else.
His son seems to be smiling more recently.
The whole person has become much softer.
"If you don't want me to worry, I have to worry too."
The old man had a stern face, but his tone softened.
"How can I not worry about such a big thing as my son getting married?"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of the wedding."
Lu Tingzhou immediately frowned and refused bluntly.
"Can I trust your vision?"
“Professional matters should be left to professionals.”
"I've already hired a top-notch wedding planning team, so don't worry about it."
Lu Jinxuan did not participate in the conversation between the father and son. He picked up the juice in front of him and solemnly toasted it to Sang Wan.
"Aunt."
There was an unspeakable sense of guilt in his eyes.
"You will definitely be happy."
His mother indirectly killed Sang Wan's mother, and this is a hurdle he cannot get over.
Sang Wan understood the emotion in his eyes.
She raised her glass and clinked it with his.
"Jinxuan, we will all get better and better."
"You will too."
This conversation, this warmth.
Lu Tingfeng couldn't say a word.
Seeing how happy the old man is about the shares, there's no chance of him giving in at all.
He was so angry that his face turned blue. He looked like an outsider, watching the happy family of four.
From beginning to end, his wife Tang Qinlan didn't say a word.
She just sat there quietly, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.
The shares he fought for were nothing more than the children born to his other women.
What does it have to do with her child?
Even at such an old age, she still has to keep cleaning up the mistresses outside for her husband.
No one understood the frustration and hatred in her heart.
Lu Tingfeng naturally wouldn't know either.
He was here fighting for shares for an unborn bastard, and she had already arranged people to find Xu Mingyue.
The hustle and bustle of the Lu family's old house seems like a scene from another world.
Tinglanyuan, this old villa area, is now so quiet that only the sound of the wind can be heard.
Xu Mingyue sat alone at the dining table.
On the phone screen, the message she sent to Lu Tingfeng was still from half an hour ago.
When will you be back?
No reply.
She made another call.
There was only a mechanical female voice in the receiver, reminding her that the other party's phone was turned off.
Outside the window, a brilliant firework exploded in the night sky, briefly illuminating her pale face.
In the flickering light and shadow, she seemed to see the New Year's Eve of previous years.
In the living room, there were the sounds of my parents laughing and my younger brother making noises.
On the table were dumplings made by my mother and the New Year gifts she prepared for me.
In her pocket, there was a thick red envelope of New Year's money given by her father.
At that time, I didn’t realize it, but now I realize what home is.
But now?
Her parents are both in prison, and she abandoned her younger brother, whom she has not visited once since the accident.
In order to go against Sang Wan, she went to Lu Tingfeng's bed.
She thought she had grabbed a ticket to heaven.
In the end, he was just locked in a cold cage.
The dishes on the table were all Lu Tingfeng's favorites, and she had specially instructed the servants to make them.
However, during the New Year's Eve dinner, she couldn't even get through to him on the phone.
My stomach felt like it was blocked by a ball of cotton, sour and bloated.
Tears rolled down without warning, hitting the cold table and leaving a small stain.
She just lay on the table, letting herself be immersed in the boundless loneliness.
The sound of fireworks in the distance became the only background sound for her sadness at the moment.
In a daze, she seemed to hear the slight turning sound of the door lock.
But the sound of the fireworks was so loud that she couldn't tell whether it was an illusion or reality.
Until a shadow loomed behind him.
A rough big hand pressed heavily on her shoulder.
Xu Mingyue shuddered and woke up suddenly.
She thought it was Lu Tingfeng who came back.
"Tingfeng..."
Her crying voice suddenly stopped.
When I turned around, I saw two completely unfamiliar faces.
Two tall men, with a murderous look in their eyes, were staring down at her.
"Who are you?"
Xu Mingyue was so frightened that she trembled all over and subconsciously protected her lower abdomen.
"How did you get in?"
Although the security here is not as good as that of the Lu family's old house, it is not something that anyone can break in at will.
The leading man had a cruel smile on his face.
“It doesn’t matter who we are.”
"The important thing is, someone asked us to come and say hello to you."
The other man shook the keys in his hand.
"As for how he got in, of course he walked in."
"Mr. Lu's woman lives in such a shabby place?"
Xu Mingyue's heart sank to the bottom.
Anyone who can come in directly with the key must be someone close to Lu Tingfeng.
Lu Tingfeng values this child very much, so it can't be him.
A person suddenly flashed through her mind - Tang Qinlan.
She was still frightened by Tang Qinlan's attack last time.
During this period of time, she thought that Lu Tingfeng had stabilized her and would not cause her any more trouble, but now it seems that is not the case.
She just didn't have the chance for the time being because Lu Tingfeng was by her side almost every day, and there was also a nanny.
Now, Tang Qinlan finally has a chance.
The Tang family is also a well-known family in Jiangcheng. How could they swallow this humiliation?
How could she let her husband go when he was having an affair outside and even had a child?
"What do you want to do!"
