“I am your aunt. In addition to handing over the things your grandmother prepared for you, I have also prepared a special gift for you.”
As she spoke, Zhao Tang released Wen Lu, picked up her handbag that was placed to the side, and took out a bunch of keys with a cute little diamond-encrusted dragon hanging on them.
"This is the house and car I prepared for you after I found out you were found. The car is in the garage of that house. It's a gift from your aunt. Your aunt really wanted you to live with us, but your grandfather said it's not convenient to reveal your identity, so I prepared this house for you."
As she spoke, Zhao Tang put the key in Wen Lu's hand. Wen Lu looked at the key in her hand and was momentarily confused. She didn't know that there were so many benefits to recognizing relatives.
Seeing Wen Lu's flattered expression, Old Master Yan and Yan Chaohua felt even more sorry for her. They wished they could take this opportunity to restore Wen Lu's status and let her enjoy the best treatment in the Yan family.
"Lulu, welcome home. You have someone to rely on now. We won't let you suffer anymore. If you need anything, you can call us. You can order your four... no, five older brothers around as you please. If anyone says no, just tell your uncle, and your uncle will teach them a lesson."
Yan Chaohua walked to Wen Lu's side, and was about to raise his hand to pat Wen Lu's shoulder, but before he could touch Wen Lu, Wen Lu was pulled into Wang Jinyu's arms. Yan Chaohua frowned in dissatisfaction at Wang Jinyu's actions.
"Xiao Si, I've heard about your relationship with Wen Lu, but Wen Lu is still young... I think..."
"I can wait for her to grow up, don't worry, big brother, I won't let Wenlu suffer because of me!"
Before Yan Chaohua could express her disapproval of their relationship, Wang Jinyu spoke up directly.
He didn't like hearing them say things like he was too young or that the age wasn't right for him. He was only twenty-four years old and didn't think there was anything wrong with him and Wen Lu.
Yan Luo sat in his chair watching Wang Jinyu and Yan Chaohua confront each other head-on. He quickly stood up, walked over to the two of them to smooth things over, and whispered something behind Yan Chaohua's back.
“Dad, Fourth Master knew Wen Lu before we did. If Fourth Master hadn’t arranged for me to take care of Wen Lu, I wouldn’t have brought Yan Nuo to Harbin No. 1 Middle School, and I wouldn’t have had the chance to recognize Wen Lu. So we have no right to interfere in the matter between Wen Lu and Fourth Master.”
Although Yan Luo's voice wasn't loud, everyone around him heard what he said, especially his four brothers sitting to the side. They all silently lit a candle for Yan Luo in their hearts and gave him a thumbs up. They truly admired Yan Luo's courage for daring to contradict their father.
Just when everyone thought Yan Chaohua would deal with Yan Luo, Yan Chaohua glanced at Wen Lu, then looked at Wang Jinyu, and finally said nothing, which could be regarded as tacitly acknowledging the relationship between the two.
Seeing Yan Chaohua's submissive expression, Zhao Tang couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Alright, alright, it's a good thing that Wen Lu is coming home. Although we can't reveal Wen Lu's identity, we should still take this opportunity to celebrate properly. Lu Lu, remember to come home often in the future."
"Okay, I will go home to see my grandpa, uncle, and aunt often."
Wen Lu leaned against Wang Jinyu in a good mood and spoke in a sweet voice.
In the eyes of the Yan family, Wen Lu's attitude at this time meant that Wen Lu had accepted the family.
Grandpa Yan looked at Wen Lu happily, but then suddenly remembered the grudge between Wen Lu and Yan Mengmeng, and sighed helplessly.
"Lulu, Grandpa wants to ask you a favor. It's about you and Yan Mengmeng. I know Mengmeng is spoiled by us and acts a bit too arrogantly. Grandpa will handle this, so could you please not hold it against her?"
Wen Lu guessed that Grandpa Yan would speak up for Yan Mengmeng, so she wasn't surprised and answered in a calm tone.
“I have no special grudges with Yan Mengmeng. If she doesn’t bully Yan Nuo, I definitely won’t provoke her. Since Grandpa wants to handle this matter, then please make it clear to Yan Mengmeng that if she bullies Yan Nuo again, I will not show any mercy.”
Wen Lu looked at Old Master Yan with bright, dark eyes. In the past, Yan Nuo was alone in the Yan family. Although she was loved by others, she was inevitably neglected and bullied at times. But from today onwards, Yan Nuo will no longer be alone. She will no longer let anyone bully Yan Nuo.
Yan Nuo lowered his head awkwardly upon hearing Wen Lu's words. He suddenly felt ashamed. Wen Lu had just returned to the Wen family, and not only had he failed to protect her, but he had also made Wen Lu protect him. It was truly embarrassing.
Seemingly sensing Yan Nuo's unease, Wang Jinyu raised his eyes, glanced at Yan Nuo indifferently, and said in a calm tone, "18 years old is not young anymore. You can send him to Xugu for some training..."
Upon hearing that Wang Jinyu was going to send Yan Nuo to Xugu, everyone, including Wang Liting, unconsciously looked at Wang Jinyu. They all wanted to know if Wang Jinyu knew what he was saying. What kind of place was Xugu? Was it a place that someone like Yan Nuo could go?
"Forget about Xugu, we can send him to the 9th Academy for a trip..."
Wen Lu turned her head to look at Wang Jinyu. This time, Wen Lu was not joking. She really wanted to send Yan Nuo somewhere for training. Although eighteen years old was a bit late, she didn't want to see Yan Nuo as a weakling.
Hearing Wen Lu and Wang Jinyu casually discussing where to send Yan Nuo, the Yan family members stared at them blankly.
The Yan family had no doubts about Wang Jinyu's words, after all, Xugu was indeed a place where Wang Jinyu had the final say.
"My two ancestors, please let me go! I'm already seriously participating in the school's computer competition. Wen Lu, you haven't forgotten what you promised me, have you?"
Yan Nuo tentatively opened her mouth, her bright eyes looking at Wen Lu, hoping to awaken Wen Lu's memory.
Yan Nuo has been unusually well-behaved at school lately. He is now focused on securing a spot in the university's entrance exam and waiting for Wen Lu to prepare a team for him so that he can have a chance to prove those who look down on him wrong.
Hearing Yan Nuo pleading for mercy, Wen Lu chuckled and accepted Yan Nuo's situation. Well, she couldn't use her own standards to judge him. She smiled sweetly at everyone.
"Don't take it seriously, I was just kidding. Grandpa also brought you a birthday present, I hope you like it."
As she spoke, Wen Lu looked at Wang Jinyu and took the gift she had prepared in advance from his hand.
She casually placed the gifts she had received into Wang Jinyu's hand, and Wang Jinyu accepted them all without hesitation.
Wen Lu took the gift prepared by Wang Jinyu and walked up to Mr. Yan. Out of curiosity, she opened the gift without hesitation and found a set of white marble Go pieces.
