Perhaps his prayers were not sincere enough, for the knock on the door still came as promised...
Someone is coming to see him...
He was too weak to get out of bed, so he resigned himself to his fate and walked over to open the door.
Looking out the door, I saw an unprecedented crowd of people...
His grandfather, his father, his mother, his eldest brother... all came...
Ahhhh...destroy it!
"Let's go inside and talk." The old man commanded: "Let's have a family meeting."
Lu Yunjie: “…”
What family meeting... You think gossip is the truth...
Outnumbered, Lu Yunjie lowered his head and stepped back: "Come in."
After everyone came in, he closed the door.
"Tell me the truth! Who is Third Sister-in-law? When did you start dating? Why did you keep it a secret? You didn't even let a word out?"
Mu Linglan threw out one question after another, saying, "Don't try to get away with it today, kid."
Must explain clearly!
"Don't try to lie. You have to answer every question." The old man stared at him sharply. This kid has been lying since he was a child. He has to keep a close eye on him and not let him fool him again!
Lu Beishu and Lu Yunchen didn't say anything, but their eyes looking at him were clear. Tell me quickly! What's going on?
Lu Yunjie sighed, he couldn't escape after all.
He lowered his head, not daring to look the others in the eye.
"I am in a relationship, but my significant other is not a woman, he is a man."
After saying this, Lu Yunjie stopped talking and the room fell silent. A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It must be difficult for them to accept that someone in their family is in love with a man.
Yes, it's human nature...
"And then, what happened next? Why are you only telling half of the story? You're not being honest!"
Mu Linglan glared at Lu Yunjie. She didn't know who this kid had learned this from, but he always said half of what he said and left the other half...
Aren’t they... angry?
Aren't you disappointed?
Lu Yunjie raised his head nervously, his eyes tense as he scanned the faces of the people in the room. Surprisingly, he didn't see disappointment in their eyes; instead, they were filled with encouragement, calmness, and gossip...
He really wanted to ask: Don’t you feel disgusted? Don’t you think I’m an alien?
But he had been holding this sentence in his mind for a long time and couldn't say it out loud.
In the end, the old man couldn't stand it anymore. He said, "Hey!" "Jie, you have to remember that the Lu family is open-minded. I don't care if the person you are dating is a boy or a girl. Anyway, just don't let me get involved in anything illegal."
"Your grandfather is right."
Lu Beishu agreed, "Besides, as long as it's true love, why bother distinguishing between men and women? If you're having an affair, I definitely won't let you go. But if you're truly in love with someone, there's no way we're going to force you apart."
Even though he had heard Fifth Sister's thoughts before and knew that their parents would approve of his and Yaxuan's relationship, hearing it was one thing and seeing it with one's own eyes was another.
He didn't expect his family to accept it so quickly...
Lu Yunchen: "Third brother, since you are in love, why don't you find a time to bring your partner back for dinner someday so that we can meet and chat."
Lu Yunjie nodded, his eyes misty with tears. "Okay, I'll discuss it with him and pick a suitable time to bring him back."
"What are you picking?" Mu Linglan waved her hand. "Let's do it tomorrow. Your second brother will be home tomorrow, so we can have a nice meal and chat as a family."
Hearing this, Lu Yunjie didn't rush to agree, but said: "I'll ask Yaxuan tomorrow morning what he thinks. If he doesn't have any plans and agrees to come, I'll bring him over."
"Oh, yes, that's right." Mu Linglan also realized that she hadn't thought it through: "Then tomorrow you can talk to... uh... so after all this talk, who is your partner?"
I'm so angry with her!
This is totally useless conversation!
Lu Yunjie also realized that he had not yet introduced his girlfriend's name to his family. He scratched his head in embarrassment. It was because he was too nervous just now.
"His name is Fu Yaxuan, he is..."
Before Lu Yunjie could finish his words, Mu Linglan interrupted him: "Is that the Fu Yaxuan who escaped into the wilderness with you earlier?"
"Yeah, it's him."
I felt a little shy when introducing my partner to my family.
Lu Yunjie blinked, his face trying to remain calm, but in fact he was already beginning to feel a little embarrassed and irritated. He didn't even notice that his neck was already red.
"Great!" Mu Linglan clapped her hands, and a "pop" sound was heard in the air: "When I first watched your live broadcast, I liked him very much. I didn't expect that we would have the fate to become a family!"
The old man said: "You have done so many things, but this is the only thing you did right!"
Lu Yunjie: “…”
There's no need to belittle him like that, right?
"Okay, then you should call Yaxuan tomorrow morning to see if he is free. If he comes, we can be prepared." This was said by Lu Beishu.
"What else do you have to prepare?"
Lu Yunjie was genuinely confused.
They don't have to cook or clean, as there are people at home to do these things, so... what else can they prepare?
"We must dress nicely for our first meeting!" Mu Linglan couldn't understand how she could have given birth to such a stupid son!
"Don't bother with someone like him who doesn't understand romance." The old man had already lost interest in chatting with Lu Yunjie: "I don't know whether to wear my red suit or the other black and gray suit tomorrow."
"Red," Lu Beishu suggested. After a pause, he explained the reason for choosing a red suit: "It's festive."
"I think red is a good choice, too." Mu Linglan followed Lu Beishu and said, "It's not that I think it's festive, but I think you look energetic in red, old man. You look a dozen years younger."
Everyone in the room was talking, but their attention had already shifted away from Lu Yunjie.
Lu Yunjie: “…”
You guys who throw things away after using them are just like a bunch of scumbag men and women...
…
The next morning.
Lu Shiwen was dressed in casual clothes, walked gracefully, and walked towards the gate of the Lu family carrying a large schoolbag.
Lu Shiwen happened to run into Mr. Lu who was wearing a red suit. He was slightly surprised: "Grandpa, you are dressed so festively, are you going to a wedding?"
"Hey, Wen kid, you're back? Come on, show me what I'm wearing. Does it look good?"
