Lu Jianjun snorted, not believing Meng Fuyan's words at all. He had felt that his older brother was strange during that time, but due to his long-standing impression of him and his trust in him, he never thought of doubting his own brother.
Now it seems that he had already seen through Yanyan and Yunji's background, which is why he couldn't sit still.
You're really good at enduring things!
There had been no movement for so long, so his three sons were immediately transferred to his side. This made him really think that this guy was taking care of his nephew. He even went to Kyoto to visit him and found that the people in the military region there thought that Lu Guozhong was taking care of his nephew. This good reputation was almost spreading throughout Kyoto.
No one noticed anything unusual about Lu Guozhong taking the little guy to ride horses all the time.
Although he complained, Lu Jianjun was genuinely happy about his older brother's change. His older brother was just too calm, so calm that he didn't seem like a normal person.
For so many years, he has had almost no desires, and all he does is work, work, work. Apart from work, it seems that there is no life that a living person should have.
Lu Jianjun is quite pleased to see him resorting to tricks to protect his child.
He asked Meng Suqin, "You seem to be in good spirits. Are you alright with the injuries you sustained back then?"
Meng Suqin looked at her daughter with gentle eyes and said with a smile, "I'm fine now. It's all thanks to Yanyan. I was originally terminally ill. Even with the best treatment abroad, I would only be able to live for about a year at most. But Yanyan found a doctor. She prescribed medicine for me and stayed with me every day. I took the medicine and ate medicinal food. My body recovered very quickly."
Lu Jianjun was quite surprised, "Yanyan has this ability?"
Meng Fuyan smiled and said, "I have studied some traditional Chinese medicine and know some secret recipes. When I saw that my mother was in such a state, I boldly used them on her. Besides, my mother used to be too anxious. She was all alone abroad with no one to take care of her, and she was worried about us back home. After I went there, she felt better and her energy and spirits recovered quickly."
"Of course, the most important thing is knowing that Dad has started to protect us."
Lu Jianjun glanced at her, sighed, and didn't ask any more questions. "It's good that you're alright. Your return in good health is the greatest happiness for Yunji and Yanyan. These past few years have been so difficult for the two siblings, and now they've finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel."
"By the way, are you... going to Kyoto?"
This time, it was Meng Suqin who answered personally, "I will go. Yun Ji is still there, so I will definitely go. And your older brother, I will definitely meet with him."
Some things need to be clarified and resolved.
Lu Jianjun nodded, "Okay, it's good that you've come back and resolved it. We're all family, there's nothing we can't discuss. We're not young anymore, let's not waste any more time."
"You two must be exhausted from the journey. Rest first. We can talk about it tomorrow. By the way, Yanyan, your room hasn't been touched. You two can go and rest. I'll tidy up and then go stay at a friend's place for the night. Make sure you lock the door."
Although the Meng family's house is large, it's not appropriate for a man like him to stay there as there are only two people, a mother and daughter.
Lu Jianjun tidied up and went to his friend's dormitory.
After closing the door, Meng Suqin and Meng Fuyan went upstairs.
Her room was still the same as before, with little dust, indicating that Lu Jianjun had it cleaned.
Meng Fuyan took out a quilt from her spatial storage, made the bed, and took out hot water to wash up.
Lying on her bed in her own room, sharing a blanket with her mother, Meng Fuyan felt somewhat excited.
"Mom, isn't it amazing? We actually have the chance to lie in this bed in this room again. It's my bedroom since I was little. After you passed away, I had to spend a lot of energy every day to protect this room. My little brother was so small, and he often didn't know how to fight back when he was wronged. He could only come to me crying. For those few years, I basically slept with him. It wasn't until he got older that he was moved to another room."
Meng Suqin sighed, "Yanyan, have you ever hated your mother? If your mother hadn't been so incompetent, you and Yunji wouldn't have had to suffer like this."
Meng Fuyan turned her head and exclaimed in surprise, "Why would Mom think that way? I have never hated you. On the contrary, I feel that I am already very happy. You have your helplessness. From your perspective, I think you have done very well. This era is not easy. Our family has turned around too quickly. There are not many direct descendants. We are already very good to be where we are today."
"At least Yunji and I have never been poor since we were little. If it weren't for our family's wealth and my mother's teachings back then, I wouldn't have such a good life."
Meng Suqin breathed a sigh of relief. "As long as you don't hate your mother, that's good. Go to sleep early. We'll stay here for two days and then go to Kyoto. Your mother really wants to stay at home a little longer."
Meng Fuyan naturally wouldn't object, "No problem, then stay for a couple more days."
The train journey had taken its toll, and Meng Fuyan was exhausted. She quickly fell asleep.
Looking at her daughter beside her, Meng Suqin vowed to give her an even better future!
The next day, the mother and daughter slept until late morning, finally shaking off their fatigue. After washing up and getting ready for breakfast, they went to the kitchen and found it empty, with nothing in it.
Meng Fuyan chuckled, "Uncle Lu said that Dad is a workaholic, and he's no less so. I guess he just comes here to sleep and eats in the cafeteria."
She took out some breakfast from her storage space. "Eat this first, I'll go buy some groceries later."
After breakfast, Meng Fuyan went out, while Meng Suqin stayed at home. Here, she was a deceased person, and it was best not to go out unless necessary to avoid trouble.
Let's wait until things are resolved in Kyoto.
After Meng Fuyan came out, she first called Lu Guozhong.
I went directly to Lu Jianjun's office to make a taxi, and the call was connected very quickly.
"Uncle, it's me, Yanyan!"
There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone, followed by some static, the faint sound of books and papers falling, and then Lu Guozhong's slightly trembling voice.
"Yanyan? You're back? You..." She was about to ask the question when she stopped herself.
Meng Fuyan naturally knew what Lu Guozhong wanted to ask, and smiled, "Yes, I'm back. I'm in Changning City now. We... came back together."
A surge of immense joy filled Lu Guozhong's chest. He felt that he hadn't been this happy and excited in a very, very long time. The last time he felt this way was when he learned about Meng Fuyan and Meng Yunji's true identities.
He knew that Gu Tingzhi and his mother would return to China after Gu Tingzhi sent him a message. He had been waiting for this day, and now it had finally come.
She's back!
"How...how is she?"
"Don't worry, everything is fine. Once you recover, we'll all be healthy."
