Chapter 276 Actually, I'm your dad
The next day, Lu Chengbo, who had been thinking about it all night, woke up to find no one cooking in the kitchen.
There were only a few lunchboxes on the table.
He knew then that it was Bo Sinian who had sent it.
This man really knows how to handle people.
They came to deliver breakfast very early in the morning, but they didn't even come in; they just dropped off the food and left.
He was also somewhat confused about what was wrong with the young man.
He thought about it all night and has now decided to tell Lu Wanxing about his identity.
Firstly, as her father, he could also send people to protect Lu Wanxing.
On the other hand, he also wanted Lu Wanxing, his daughter, to help him pursue a wife.
I can't just stay cooped up in this villa forever, can I?
However, Lu Wanxing didn't get up for breakfast all morning. After asking the maid, she learned that Lu Wanxing said she didn't need to be woken up for breakfast today and needed to rest.
It wasn't until noon that Lu Chengbo finally saw Lu Wanxing.
"You're up? Come here, I have something to tell you."
Lu Wanxing yawned as she walked over to the sofa and sat down.
"Speak, what is it?"
"Um, actually, I'm your dad."
Lu Wanxing: ......
She glanced at Lu Chengbo, her expression languid, and then replied in a very calm tone.
"I know!"
"You know? How do you know who I am? I don't remember saying that!"
Lu Chengbo was so shocked that he stood up abruptly.
He remembered that he hadn't said anything and seemed to have revealed nothing. How did this person know?
"I guessed what you were implying yesterday, both overt and covert. And another thing, your surname is Lu, and you even inquired about my mother..."
Lu Wanxing's tone was quite disdainful; perhaps only he, the person involved, was unaware of how obvious his dissatisfaction was.
Lu Wanxing also discovered that her father really was a bit of a romantic.
"Tell me, how did you two break up back then? I'm quite curious."
"Hmm? Call me Dad! Now that you've called me, I'll talk to you."
Lu Chengbo hadn't even recovered from the shock when he saw Lu Wanxing gossiping about him, and he immediately looked at her expectantly.
After so many years, he finally reunited with his child, and of course he wanted to hear his child call him "Dad."
Lu Wanxing rolled her eyes. "Tell me if you want, I don't really care, and I doubt my mom cares either."
After saying that, he let out a long sigh.
"Speaking of which, it seems like my mom is about to start dating. What do you think her reaction will be when she finds out you're back and staying at my house?"
Lu Wanxing looked at Lu Chengbo with a mischievous grin.
Lu Chengbo certainly heard the threat in her tone, and ironically, those words really did threaten him.
After all, whether he can reconcile with his wife later depends on how well his little darling performs.
"Ahem, daughter, we haven't seen each other for so many years. I only just heard about you and came back to see you. Don't you think you should be nicer to your father?"
"You weren't around for the first twenty-odd years of your life, why should I be nice to you?"
"Oh dear, isn't this all a misunderstanding? Now that I'm back, I just want my family to be together again. Let's have a good talk."
Lu Chengbo is putting himself in a very humble position right now.
There was no other way; he wanted his wife and children, and his own pride didn't matter anymore.
"Look at me, I'm already so old, and I still have to worry about this. There are still some vixens outside trying to seduce your mother. If I don't do something, you might end up with a stepfather."
Lu Chengbo knew that what he had just said was useless, so he went straight for the pitiful act, and when he got to the sad parts, he even took out a tissue to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Lu Wanxing looked at him with a complicated expression.
Now I know that the reason her parents were able to get together is probably, maybe, just because they were birds of a feather.
With such dramatic flair, they really do seem to have come from the same school...
"What's wrong with having a stepfather? I heard that my stepfather has a pretty powerful background. I can just lie down and live off my parents from now on."
"How can that be? Your dad is very capable too. You want to just lie down and do nothing, right? Then I'll take care of you from now on. No one else will have to support you."
Lu Chengbo is making a concerted effort to impress his daughter in the hopes of leaving a good impression.
Unfortunately, back in Country A, the image of her shamelessly freeloading meals had already been deeply ingrained in Lu Wanxing's mind.
There's really no way to change her mind in a short time.
"Really? Raising me isn't cheap."
Lu Wanxing now looks down on him, which makes Lu Chengbo anxious.
“It’s alright, your dad can afford to raise you. Besides, I haven’t been by your side for the past twenty years, and you must have suffered a lot. But that won’t happen again. Oh, and there’s also my little grandson. I’ll raise him too, so you don’t need to look for that child’s father.”
Lu Chengbo was practically patting his chest in assurance.
That kind of attitude was really quite arrogant.
"Alright, enough about me. You should focus on figuring out how to win over my mom."
Hearing Lu Wanxing mention this matter, Lu Chengbo felt extremely frustrated.
"With your mom's personality, if I showed up in front of her, she would definitely turn around and run away."
"You're quite self-aware, aren't you?"
Lu Wanxing chuckled softly.
I don't know what happened between the two of them that made her mother run away as soon as she saw them.
"Sigh, there's nothing I can do. I know your mother too well. You know, back then, the old man in the family forced that person on me. Before I even accepted it, your mother got so angry that she took you and ran away. And she hasn't let me see you all these years. The key thing is, she hasn't gone back to the Han family either."
Otherwise, why would Lu Chengbo be so kind to Han Ximan?
This person can get angry and then quietly leave their own world without a trace of regret.
Not to mention, she was pregnant at the time.
I have no idea how she, a young girl, managed to get through it all.
"So, you broke up back then because of this misunderstanding?"
"What else? Your mother had a terrible temper when she was young. All that talk about being gentle and charming was just an act. Only I know that."
Speaking of this, Lu Chengbo seemed quite proud.
"Back then, your mom was so beautiful, so many boys liked her, but she only liked me. As for your dad back then..."
Lu Wanxing listened with a gossipy look on her face, originally expecting to hear some melodramatic story.
In the end, it all turned out to be... her dad's bragging.
Simply put, they were a perfect match, and they hit it off immediately.
And then he became the envy of everyone in the industry.
"Your uncle found out we were dating and wasn't happy with me. As a result, your mom ran away and never came home. Your uncle almost beat me to death, cough cough, that's an exaggeration. Anyway, we clashed a lot in the business world, and I suffered terribly."
Speaking of what happened back then, it was truly a story of bitter tears.
