The woman who had just argued with Wang Yuxia saw someone calling Wang Yuxia "Second Aunt." After thinking about it carefully, she realized that only the eldest son of the Lu family would call her "Second Aunt."
Knowing that the Lu family still wielded considerable power, she remained silent and watched from the sidelines with the others.
When Ye Yunxi saw this woman and heard Lu Hengyi call her "Second Aunt," she realized that this was actually Lu Hengyi's Second Aunt.
I never imagined that after more than two years, I would be kicked out of the Lu family and end up like this.
Her body was even thinner than before, her eyes were dull, and she had lost her former radiance.
When Wang Yuxia saw Lu Hengyi, a hint of hatred flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it.
Even though it was fast, Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng still noticed it.
Seeing her like this, Lu Hengyi felt a little bad, after all, she was his second aunt.
He asked softly, "Second Aunt, I never expected to see you here after more than two years, but you've already..."
He didn't continue speaking.
Wang Yuxia snorted coldly.
"What? You're not going to say the rest? You never thought I'd end up like this, did you! Now that you see me, just leave. Let's pretend we never met."
After saying this, he lost interest in setting up his stall, ignored other people's stares, packed up his things, and prepared to go home.
Lu Hengyi didn't expect his second aunt to say that. Now that he saw her in such a miserable state, and that she was about to leave, he immediately stepped forward and blocked Wang Yuxia's way.
"Second Aunt, that's not what I meant."
When Wang Yuxia saw Lu Hengyi blocking her way, she immediately spoke in a harsh tone.
"So what do you mean now? You're not letting me leave because you want to keep watching me make a fool of myself? Now that you've seen it, you can leave. Get out of my way!"
Lu Hengyi didn't say anything more, took a few steps back, and let her pass.
After Wang Yuxia walked away, the old woman who had argued with her earlier stepped forward and said to Lu Hengyi.
"Young man, you must be from the Lu family. Let me tell you, your second aunt has been at our base for two years. When she first came, she was doing alright. Besides her son, she also had a man by her side. They stayed at the base for a year, and then that man found a young and beautiful woman and abandoned them."
I heard her son doesn't really care about her and they often argue. She's been selling things here for a while now, and not only does she often occupy our spot, she also acts like a scoundrel.
Everyone here knows she's a bad person, and that she was abandoned by her husband and son, who don't care whether she lives or dies.
Lu Hengyi never expected his second aunt to be living such a miserable life. Even though he kicked her out of the Lu family, he still gave her some supplies so that she and her son could make a living.
"Auntie, I'd like to ask, did she bring any supplies with her when she came?"
"Supplies? She did have them, but I heard that man swindled them all away."
Lu Hengyi then realized that he had been deceived by that man, which explained why he was living such a miserable life.
"Thanks."
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng stepped forward and spoke to him.
"If you can't bear to see her like this, then give her some supplies."
Lu Hengyi gratefully thanked Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng.
Thank you.
Ye Yunxi sighed inwardly. Heng Yi was still so kind-hearted. Since he wanted to do it, she would support him. She hoped that his second aunt would appreciate it.
Lu Hengyi asked someone for Wang Yuxia's address, thanked them, and then they went home.
Back at the villa, Lu Hengyi asked Xuan Yu to bring out some of the Lu family's supplies; they had everything.
Lu Hengyi filled several bags with the contents. After finishing, he was about to leave when Ye Yunxi stopped him.
"Aheng and I will go with you. The rest of you can wait at home."
Lu Hengyi nodded, and carrying the supplies, Fu Heng and Ye Yunxi walked towards Wang Yuxia's house.
Half an hour later, Ye Yunxi and the others arrived at a six-story building. Wang Yuxia lived on the fourth floor, which was on the right. They went up to the building.
Upon reaching the fourth floor on the right, they heard arguing inside. Listening closely, they realized it was a man's voice.
Lu Hengyi thought it was someone else coming to cause trouble for his second aunt, so he knocked on the door loudly.
The mother and son, who were arguing inside the house, turned to look at the door when they heard someone knocking.
Wang Yuxia suppressed her dissatisfaction, strode towards the door, opened it, and saw the person she didn't want to see.
How did you find me here?
Seeing that his second aunt was alright and nothing was wrong, Lu Hengyi spoke to her.
"I came to see you, and I brought some supplies with me."
Wang Yuxia glanced at the bags of supplies on the ground, paused for a moment, and then her expression changed drastically.
"Who cares about the Lu family's supplies? I'm doing just fine."
Hearing the noise inside, Lu Hengyang immediately came out and saw several familiar people.
He stared wide-eyed and questioned them loudly.
"How did you get here?"
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng did not answer Lu Hengyang's question, but stared straight at the mother and son.
When Lu Hengyi saw his second brother come out, he realized that it was them who had been arguing. He smiled and said...
"Hengyang, it's been a long time. We came to the base to take care of some business and happened to run into Second Aunt. We found out that you live here. Yunxi and Aheng came with me to bring you some supplies."
Upon hearing the word "supplies," Lu Hengyang looked down at the ground and saw several large bags of supplies.
Before he could speak, Wang Yuxia said coldly.
"Take these supplies with you, we don't need them. Ever since your Lu family kicked us out, we have had no connection with your Lu family. So don't pretend to be kind here, we don't want them!"
After Ye Yunxi and the others heard what Wang Yuxia said, Lu Hengyi was about to speak when a voice interrupted him.
Lu Hengyang loudly blamed his mother.
"You're so high and mighty! We're almost starving. You want them to take away the supplies? Are you trying to starve me? If you don't want these supplies, I'll take them. It's better than starving to death."
Wang Yuxia looked at her son with a disappointed expression, so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time.
Lu Hengyang didn't care about Wang Yuxia's expression, and he no longer looked like the second young master as before. Now he looked more like a hoodlum.
He smiled and said to Lu Hengyi.
"Hengyi, do you have any more supplies? If so, please give us more. What you've given us is too little; it won't last long."
Lu Hengyi looked embarrassed and awkward after hearing his words.
"Hengyi, these supplies are what we got by trading things at the base. That's all we have. Eat them sparingly, they'll last a long time."
These were things they had discussed on their way here. Ye Yunxi and the others didn't object to Lu Hengyi helping them, but there were some things he needed to remember.
If his second aunt were still in the Lu family and had been plotting with his second uncle, then Grandpa Lu might already be gone. It's also possible that he and his parents would have been the ones kicked out.
