Chapter 358 We Are Really Acting
The next evening, Lu Lou, who had just returned from get off work, was happily enjoying the dinner made by Carol. While asking Carol what style she wanted to decorate the new house in, the doorbell rang.
"Mr. Lu, please continue eating. I'll go open the door." Carol wiped her mouth with a tissue, sat up from her chair, and went to open the door in her slippers.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Carol asked politely to the beautiful woman outside the door whom she had never met before.
"Daughter-in-law!" The beautiful woman uttered these three words with a smile, then grabbed Carol's wrist with excitement and walked into the house.
"Madam, have you come to the wrong place?" The other party actually called her daughter-in-law. Carol immediately thought that this lady might have come to the wrong place.
The beautiful woman walked in and said, "I'm not mistaken. I'm Lu Lou's mother, your mother-in-law. My name is Tong Fei. Where's Lu Lou? He shouldn't be at work at this time, right? Lu Lou~~~~"
Lu Lou rushed over from the restaurant at the sound of his mother's call. His eyes fell on Carol's wrist, which was tightly held by her mother. He strode forward and separated the two.
"Mom, why are you here? Didn't you say you were going to Country M to inspect the hot spring villa?"
Tong Fei pushed her son aside and came to Carol's side. She took Carol's arm and said, "I went to Country M to inspect hot spring villas. I didn't expect that the owner of the hot spring villa I liked was actually my father-in-law. I learned from him that my son had already obtained a marriage certificate with Duke William's daughter, and you, as a son, didn't tell me a word. If I hadn't been able to hold my composure, I would have been embarrassed in front of Duke William. People said that you wanted to wait until your father and I finished our world tour before holding the wedding, but in the end, you didn't even tell me you were married."
"Mom, it's not what you think..." Lu Lou wanted to explain.
"You don't need to explain. Your father and I are very satisfied with this marriage. Although we're a little upset that you kept it a secret from us, considering you've found such a beautiful daughter-in-law for us, your father and I have decided to forgive you. Do you know how happy your father was when he heard the news of your marriage? As soon as he found out, he immediately video-called Duke William to apologize in person for postponing the wedding. After that, he also notified your grandparents, your uncle, and your aunt's family."
Lu Lou's slender body swayed, stunned. "So, now all my relatives know that I, Lu Lou, am married?"
Tong Fei smiled slightly. "Of course, your mother's relatives on my side of the family also know about it. Even my cousin's mother-in-law's daughter's husband's family knows about it. Everyone is very happy for you. The last time they were so happy was because Shang Bei got married and Xiao Nuo had a child."
"Mom, things are not what you think!" Lu Lou interrupted his mother and looked up at Carol, who was already stunned with fear. "Carol, go to the restaurant and continue eating. I will explain this to Mom."
"Yeah." Carol looked at Tong Fei apologetically, withdrew her arm, turned and walked towards the restaurant.
Lu Lou dragged his mother to the study, closed the door, and pitifully sat in front of her, explaining the whole story. "Mom, Carol and I were actually in a fake marriage. I did it so I could go abroad and capture Nian Yuxue. Nian Yuxue disguised herself and married Carol's half-brother. Carol and I married to get closer to Nian Yuxue and find a chance to expose her true identity. Now that our mission is complete, Nian Yuxue has been captured and is back in jail. Carol and I never even got married."
"What?!" Tong Fei looked deeply shocked. "But didn't you give a betrothal gift of 100 million? Xiaolou, you love money so much. I don't believe you saying that you and Carol are just acting!"
"But we are really just putting on an act, old lady." Lu Lou said helplessly.
