74 I am Lu Yancheng’s partner
◎Xiao Mutou’s responsibility and commitment◎
No matter how controlled by the plot, when the interests of the entire Lu family and a male daughter-in-law are put together, Dad and Mom Lu still know which is more important.
After Lu Yancheng brought Song Qiu in, he didn't say much. He greeted his parents first, and then began to introduce Song Qiu.
"Dad, Mom, let me formally introduce you. This is Song Qiu, my partner."
Silence, almost eerie silence.
The elders didn't say anything, and Lu Yancheng didn't say a word either. Anyone could see the confrontation. Whoever spoke first would be at a disadvantage.
"Mr. Lu, you..."
"Mom and Dad, my brother..."
Lin Jin and Lu Yang's voices collided and they looked at each other in surprise. Even though they knew that he was trying to smooth things over like them, they were still stunned.
It's a bit too coincidental.
When the villain Lu Yancheng openly took the protagonist to meet his parents, one of them was the protagonist, and the other was a supporting character who was inexplicably treated as the protagonist's wife. It seemed a bit inexplicably ambiguous that they suddenly spoke at the same time in such tacit understanding.
Lu Yang wanted to say something to Lin Jin, but Lin Jin gave him a warning look.
The eldest son's love for men has already caused such a mess. If it were to be discovered at this time that the younger son's orientation has also become male, Lin Jin couldn't imagine how devastated the two elders would be.
Not to mention being controlled by the plot, even if you are open-minded when there is no control, you can't withstand two critical hits in one day.
The already weird atmosphere seemed to be even weirder. Lu Yancheng remained calm at this time, but Song Qiu couldn't help feeling guilty. Finally, he gritted his teeth and simply stood up.
"Hello, uncle and auntie, I'm Song Qiu." He bowed politely and greeted them. After he stood up again, he continued firmly, "I'm Lu Yancheng's partner."
Lu Yancheng's serious expression when he sat at the negotiation table froze.
He never thought that Xiao Mu would say that. Maybe he had thought about standing up and sharing these with him, but that didn't include directly saying that she was his partner.
They discussed the topic of being lovers rather than partners more than once, but it always ended in vain because they both insisted on their own ideas and the differences were so big that they could not compromise with each other.
But Song Qiu said it today. Even if he was suspected of just saving face, he said it with his own mouth.
"I am a man, but Lu Yancheng and I are truly in love."
After saying this, Song Qiu himself felt a little dazed. He hadn't planned to say this before coming here, but seeing that Lu Yancheng had made so many preparations to take him to meet his parents today, he couldn't remain indifferent.
In principle, he shouldn't be soft-hearted, but now... his principles lean towards the man who was holding his hand tightly.
Song Qiu calmed down and continued to say what he wanted to say under the scrutinizing eyes of the elders, "I know that my status is not worthy of Lu Yancheng, but it does not mean that I will never be worthy of him."
"I came here today to ask for an opportunity. When I work hard and become famous in the future, and when uncle and aunt think I am worthy of them, I will pay a formal visit."
"I never thought of hiding behind Lu Yancheng. If you and your aunt have any tests, you can tell me directly. I will try my best to pass them. I don't seem to have the capital to promise here, but fortunately I am still young, and I still have a lot of time to try hard."
He has no status or background, but he is responsible, courageous, motivated, and has unlimited possibilities.
This was the first time that when Lu Yancheng heard him say that he was young, he didn’t think of himself as old, but felt proud and proud from the bottom of his heart.
Who says he is the only one who works hard and makes sacrifices in this relationship? His little wooden boy seems unwilling to accept him, but in fact, when the time comes, he will hold his hand tightly without hesitation and respond to him firmly.
"Well said!"
Lu Yang suddenly let out a roar, and then led the applause, successfully making the silent atmosphere even more awkward.
Lin Jin's eyes went dark. He had lost all his strength and means to smooth things over. He was simply unable to lead this abstract fool. Finally, he signaled Lu Yancheng with his eyes and told him to handle it himself.
Lu Yancheng had nothing to do. His parents were silent and looked at them coldly, but he didn't care. He called the housekeeper and told him seriously, "Uncle Liu, Song Qiu and I will have lunch at home. He prefers sweet and spicy. For dessert, we want mango and taro crepe. Use less cream."
After telling Song Qiu about his taste, he took Song Qiu to sit on the sofa. His attitude, which was as if no one was around but still very well-behaved and polite, was beyond anyone's comprehension.
There was no quarrel or fuss, he just asked to make lunch normally, and there was nothing wrong with it. But if you really wanted to find fault, his past crazy achievements abroad would scare his parents a little.
When Lu Yancheng gets really crazy, he can risk his life. When he was young, he fought with people abroad, hired mercenaries for a large sum of money... and even gambled with people's lives. He has done all these things.
Although Lu Yancheng himself did not have these memories, people around him had told him about them, and he knew clearly that it should be another him, or the him who was controlled by the plot.
The boy he asked Gu Qisheng to find was Song Qiu from a certain time.
In order to save him and change his fate, Song Qiu died in the sea of fire.
Lu Yancheng appeared calm on the surface, but he thought about these things over and over again in his heart. He knew that his parents' attitude today might affect the direction of the plot later. He was the first to break the routine. If the plot wanted to make sense, it would definitely change in some aspects.
Time passed by minute by minute. Lu Yang was forced to shut up by Lu Wanqing. Lin Jin just made tea and kept silent. After a few minutes, Lu's father finally spoke, "You married a man, who will inherit the Lu family in the future? Find a woman to give birth to you? We don't have such rules in our Lu family!"
The Lu family must have an heir, but they cannot find another woman to give birth to a child while already having a same-sex partner. Although Lu's father is controlled by the plot, the plot only controls him to be partial to Lu Yang and to dislike Lu Yancheng, not in this matter. His own values do not allow his son to do such a bastard thing.
"I don't plan to let a woman give birth, and I won't look for anyone else." Lu Yancheng said calmly, "My sister's child can also have the surname Lu, and I will raise him in the future."
He didn't even mention Lu Yang's child, because there was a high probability that Lu Yang would not have his own child.
Unfortunately, Mr. Lu was so angry that he didn't notice this loophole at all. Besides, there is no such thing as favoring boys over girls in the Lu family. If Lu Wanqing hadn't been more interested in art at the beginning, the company should be managed equally by her and Lu Yancheng now.
"But..." Mother Lu looked at Song Qiu hesitantly, "Your marriage has no legal protection. You say he is your partner, but the law will not recognize him."
They can only get the marriage certificate abroad, as the country has not yet opened up to that extent. Although she is controlled by the plot and does not like her eldest son now, she still thinks about this carefully.
"He is still very young."
Mother Lu gave another tactful reminder about this aspect.
The age difference between the two people, coupled with the gap in their status, makes it seem more like Lu Yancheng has deceived a little boy. This kind of marriage without legal protection means that Lu Yancheng can do whatever he wants in the future, and Song Qiu has no choice.
There was no need to say more. Although the two elders spoke in a bad tone and looked at Lu Yancheng and himself with unfriendly eyes, just by listening to these few words, Song Qiu understood why it was said that Mr. and Mrs. Lu were very open-minded.
And why could she raise a son like Lu Yancheng?
Within the plot, they follow their character settings. Outside the plot, when it comes to him and Lu Yancheng, the two elders are seriously helping them consider the problems that may arise, and even to a large extent, they are on his side.
"Uncle and aunt, I am also an adult. I can be responsible for my own choices and actions, and I can bear any consequences."
Without Lu Yancheng saying anything, Song Qiu responded to Lu's mother's concerns himself.
He dared to say today that he was Lu Yancheng's partner, so if he was let down by Lu Yancheng in the future, he would bear all the harm and would not blame anyone.
Because he was sober, he thought about all the possible consequences before saying something, but even if he knew those consequences, he still wanted to make this choice.
Maybe it was because he didn't judge the person well once, but it was impossible for him to fall in love with the same scumbag over and over again. He believed in Lu Yancheng's character, and he believed in his own vision even more.
It was not known whether it was his words that made Mr. and Mrs. Lu reluctantly agree to keep him for lunch, or whether Lu Yancheng’s threat was too strong, but in the end, they still had lunch.
The dinner table was particularly quiet. Even Lu Yang, who was so restless, didn't say a word the whole time. Only Lu Yancheng would occasionally ask Song Qiu if the food was to his liking.
Everyone's attention was on Lu Yancheng and Song Qiu, but Lu Wanqing frowned as she looked at Lu Yang and Lin Jin who were sitting next to each other. Her woman's sixth sense told her that something was very wrong with these two people.
Parents controlled by the plot, a younger brother who likes men, and now a silly younger brother who is also gay. As a sister, she really can't handle it.
These things were actually nothing if they happened one by one, she was very open-minded and could accept them, but when they were all squeezed together, the intensity was just too great...
After dinner, Lu Yancheng talked to his father about some company matters. Lu Yang was forced to be the favored youngest son. While his brother stood and talked, he sat between his parents and was fed fruits and patted on the head, which gave him goose bumps all over.
This is worse than his dad chasing him with a belt, and his mom nagging him to save some trouble for his brother whenever she sees him!
Song Qiu sat and chatted with Lu Wanqing the whole time until he heard Lu Yancheng being scolded by Lu's father. He walked over without thinking, smiled politely at the elder, and then took Lu Yancheng away.
"We still have things to do at the company. Let's go back so that you won't be too busy at night."
Although he said so, Lu Yancheng was being pulled by him and walked behind him, so he knew very well why he came over suddenly.
I can't bear to see myself being scolded, or rather... I feel heartbroken.
"Dad didn't mean it. He wouldn't normally do this. He could only do this under the control of the plot..."
"Then there's no need to stand there waiting to be scolded. Where's your ability? Don't you know to leave at this time?" Song Qiu's face was not very good. Even if it was fake, he couldn't stand it.
He couldn't stand hearing those words that praised Lu Yang, who was free and unrestrained in the company, to the sky, while belittling Lu Yancheng, who was omnipotent and worked hard for the company.
It’s not that there’s anything wrong with Lu Yang, but he feels that there’s nothing wrong with Lu Yancheng at all.
"Let's not come back until Uncle and Auntie are free of their control."
Before leaving the old house, Song Qiu said this sentence very seriously.
No matter how the plot changes after today, he is mentally prepared, but... he must minimize the harm to Lu Yancheng as much as possible.
A villain who doesn’t do bad things is not called a villain. His name is Lu Yancheng.
He is a very good and perfect person who should not suffer any unfair treatment.
