"Jinyue, calm down!"
Seeing his daughter's crazy look, Mr. Lu had to speak out.
"Dad, you heard it, my son is not doing well... I can't wait even a minute, I have to go find him now."
“Nonsense!”
Mr. Lu frowned and glanced at Mrs. Lu's face with a cold expression, but didn't say anything.
"dad--"
Mr. Lu said nothing and walked towards the living room.
Others can only follow suit.
After everyone arrived, Mr. Lu slowly said, "Let's not talk about whether the unfortunate child Zhao Ning mentioned is your lost child. Even if it is, you can't be so anxious."
"That's the flesh that fell off my body. It's the child I lost for eighteen years. Dad, please understand my feelings as a mother."
"Aren't you the children of me and your mother?"
Mr. Lu’s words stopped Lu Jinyue from saying anything.
She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she heard Mrs. Lu blaming Lu Zhaoning unhappily.
"The elders in the family have been looking for him for so long but there is no news. How did you know?"
Shen Qinghe's eyebrows twitched, and she wanted to speak for Lu Zhaoning.
"Grandma!" Lu Chengyan was shocked, "Aren't you still wondering when my sister will come back?
Why are you saying such hurtful words to her now?
I told you, girls need to be coaxed, and only when you pamper my sister will she be close to you."
Old Madam Lu glanced at Lu Zhaoning, who had no expression on his face, feeling a little embarrassed.
He defended himself stubbornly, "When did I ever say that? Don't talk nonsense, kid."
Lu Chengyan bluntly interrupted: "Yesterday you asked how to watch the live broadcast online, and you also said that my sister didn't know whether she brought you a gift."
"That's because... because..."
Why did it happen? Madam Lu couldn't explain it for a long time.
Lu Chengyan was even more proud.
"If you want to make amends to my sister, you have to treat her well and don't say bad things about her. My sister won't pay any attention to you if you give her a slap in the face and a sweet date in return."
Madam Lu seemed to be thinking about something.
No wonder she gave her most treasured jewelry to Lu Zhaoning last time, but she didn't show any appreciation at all.
"Could you please stop rambling on about irrelevant things? Shouldn't the most important thing right now be the whereabouts of my son?"
Seeing that the topic had been diverted again, Lu Jinyue almost collapsed.
No one else spoke.
Mr. Lu looked at his little daughter who was suppressing her tears and said in a deep voice, "Zhao Ning, are you sure that child is your aunt's?"
"All I can say is, there's a 95 percent chance."
As for the 5%, it was Lu Zhaoning's suspicion of the system.
"Okay, let's eat first. After dinner, we can discuss the details of finding the child."
Since Mr. Lu had spoken, Lu Jinyue had to suppress her anxiety no matter how anxious she was.
Knowing that Lu Zhaoning would be coming back today, Shen Qinghe had someone prepare a table full of her favorite dishes.
"Zhaoning, this fish is flown in from abroad every morning. It's so delicious. Try it."
"Sister, have this chicken drumstick. I've been eating it a lot lately and can eat three at a time."
…
Those who were close to Lu Zhaoning all used serving chopsticks to pick up food for her.
Lu Chengyan was serving him attentively, and Lu Zhaoning's bowl was almost piled up like a mountain.
She didn't even bother to say anything and just kept eating.
Mrs. Lu felt jealous when she saw this.
She tried to find topics to talk to Lu Zhaoning several times, but because of her elders' face, she couldn't bring herself to take the initiative.
Until the end, I didn't get to say a word to Lu Zhaoning.
After dinner, the family chatted in the small living room as usual.
"Zhaoning, this rose hawthorn tea aids digestion. Drink it while it's hot."
"Thank you, Auntie San!"
Lu Zhaoning's eyes curved into a smile. She loved sour and sweet things the most.
"Zhao Ning, I haven't thanked you properly for what happened before."
"Aunt San means..."
Shen Qinghe looked at Lu Xiyu who was playing with Lu Chengyan, and her eyes softened for a moment.
"Last time you said there might be an accident during the performance, I contacted the parents immediately. Some parents were worried about it and contacted the school to cancel it, while others wanted their children to perform on a bigger stage..."
Shen Qinghe's expression was hard to describe.
"Later, during the performance, the roof suddenly collapsed. Although we took precautions, more than a dozen children were still injured."
Lu Zhaoning's eyebrows twitched.
[System, why didn't you tell me about this? ]
System: [The host has already said that if the other party doesn't believe it, then it only means that they can't avoid this disaster.]
Lu Zhaoning frowned.
Those are just children. Adults' distrust has nothing to do with them.
System: [Host, respect the fate of others and let go of your desire to help others.]
The cold electronic sound inexplicably carries a sense of nonchalance.
There's something wrong with this system!
【You didn’t say that before.】
The system still spoke in a nonchalant tone: [The mud was fine, but you insisted on propping it up against the wall. Everyone has his or her own destiny.
Host, you will bear the fate of whoever you sympathize with.
Do not violate the laws of nature, and do not interfere with the karma of others out of sympathy.
Lu Zhaoning was already certain that there was indeed something wrong with the system.
The previous system would never say such a thing.
It will only make you work hard to eat melons, help others, and gain life points to improve yourself.
There was no point in arguing any further, so Lu Zhaoning stopped arguing with the system.
