Will Qin Lan dare to tell Lu Zhengde the truth?
I definitely wouldn't dare.
She agreed and came right away, then went to pull Lu Huaiyu.
What are you doing?
Lu Huaiyu is nine years old and has a terrible temper.
After being pulled twice, he sat up in a bad mood, his eyes wide with anger, looking quite frightening!
Qin Lan exclaimed in surprise, startled by the look in her son's eyes. But then she thought that she was his mother, and his yelling at her was only because he was still young.
Qin Lan had figured it out, so she smiled and took Lu Huaiyu's hand, deciding to use her trump card.
“Huaiyu, listen to what your mother has to say. That good-for-nothing Lu Huaijiao is back.”
“If you don’t make your dad happy, he’ll give all his money to that good-for-nothing, and then you’ll have nothing left.”
Qin Lan's words immediately excited Lu Huaiyu.
"What? That good-for-nothing is back? Why would she come back? Didn't she marry a peasant and live her whole life in the countryside?"
"Why did she come back? Is she here to steal my things?"
Lu Huaiyu was instilled from a young age with the idea that he was the only son of the Lu family and that everything in the Lu family was based on his beliefs. So when he suddenly heard that Lu Huaijiao had returned, his reaction was bound to be very strong.
Over the years, he has lived in the village because of his poor business.
Occasionally, when he came to the city to ask Qin Lan for some food, he had to do it secretly, like a thief.
Every time, that old hag Zhu Guihua told him that it was because of that good-for-nothing Lu Huaijiao that he couldn't go home because she had taken his place.
He was originally the sole heir of the Lu family, and all the Lu family's property and money belonged to him.
It's because of that good-for-nothing Lu Huaijiao that he's become so pitiful.
If you hear these kinds of words repeatedly, it's like being brainwashed.
From a young age, Lu Huaiyu harbored the obsession that Lu Huaijiao was his enemy and that he could only live well if Lu Huaijiao died.
Upon hearing Qin Lan's words, Lu Huaiyu jumped off the bed and onto the floor.
"I'm going to find my dad right now and tell him to ignore that good-for-nothing!"
"Everything belonging to the Lu family is mine, all of it!"
Lu Huaiyu stormed downstairs, wanting to protect everything that belonged to him, completely unaware that nothing in the Lu family actually belonged to him.
Even the bed he slept in was bought with the Su family's money.
Seeing that Lu Huaiyu was about to leave, Qin Lan quickly grabbed him.
“Huaiyu, wait a minute. If you keep rushing like this, your dad will get angry, and if he gets angry, he won’t give you any money.”
Lu Huaiyu may have a bad temper, but he is still a ten-year-old child and his mind is not mature.
He stopped in his tracks when he heard his mother say that.
"Then what do you suggest we do?"
“Listen to your mother.”
She leaned down and whispered in Lu Huaiyu's ear, telling him that he must do as she said so that he wouldn't be disliked by Lu Zhengde.
Lu Huaiyu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and turned to go downstairs.
Qin Lan felt a sense of relief as she watched her son storm downstairs.
With her son's help, she wasn't afraid of being unable to defeat Lu Huaijiao.
She wasn't worried at all about the things she and her mother had instilled in Lu Huaiyu since childhood, or that they would have any negative impact on Lu Huaiyu's personality.
In Qin Lan's eyes, although Lu Huaiyu was her son, he was also an important pawn in solidifying Lu Zhengde's feelings for her. However, Qin Lan didn't expect that Lu Huaiyu's temper was actually a double-edged sword!
If used improperly, it often results in harming oneself before harming others.
Downstairs, Lu Zhengde sat at the dining table, looking at the newspaper that had been delivered that evening.
He caught a glimpse of Lu Huaiyu hurrying downstairs out of the corner of his eye. He put down his newspaper and gave a gentle smile.
"Huaiyu, get up. Are you hungry? Come and eat quickly, or the food will get cold and won't taste good."
Lu Huaiyu had already eaten.
Worried that he would be hungry, Qin Lan prepared a special meal for him before Lu Zhengde returned. He ate most of a large bowl of braised pork before going upstairs to wrap himself in a blanket and go to sleep.
Lu Zhengde was unaware of the situation and assumed that Lu Huaiyu hadn't eaten yet and was simply taking a nap at this time.
He beckoned to Lu Huaiyu with a gentle smile. Lu Huaiyu stopped at the table and glared at Lu Zhengde menacingly.
"Dad, is it because that good-for-nothing is back that you're going to kick me out? Are you going to send me back to the village to live that life without parents?"
"What did you say?"
Lu Zhengde's face immediately darkened.
Seeing Lu Huaiyu's aggressive demeanor, he narrowed his eyes slightly: "Huaiyu, who taught you to say that?"
Don't think Lu Zhengde is stupid enough to be easily fooled by Qin Lan.
There are some things he just doesn't want to understand, but when it comes to things he wants to know, Qin Lan won't fool him.
For example, this situation now.
There is absolutely no way Huaiyu would say such a thing.
When his smile disappeared, Lu Huaiyu hesitated.
"dad……"
He knew who his benefactors were, and Lu Huaiyu dared not offend Lu Zhengde too much!
Lu Zhengde also saw Qin Lan coming down from upstairs.
He slammed his hand on the table with a loud thud.
The mother and son trembled together!
"Qin Lan, come here right now!"
Lu Zhengde stood up, turned around, and walked towards the study.
Qin Lan glanced at Lu Huaiyu, somewhat angry. How could he call her a worthless piece of trash? She had just taught him to call her "Sister Lu Huaijiao"!
Why is my son so impulsive, blurting out what's on his mind?
Qin Lan was a little annoyed, feeling that neither of her two children resembled her.
No, perhaps the daughter is like her mother, very calculating, but that's useless to her. Lu Zhengde doesn't lack daughters; with Lu Huaijiao around, all his other daughters pale in comparison.
Therefore, she had no hope for her daughter.
Her only hope rested on her beloved son, but he disappointed her...
Qin Lan, head bowed in regret, followed Lu Zhengde into the study.
Lu Huaiyu stood by the dining table, thinking of following them, but when he saw the remaining braised pork on the table, he sat down again, picked up a bowl of rice, and began to wolf it down.
We don't know how Lu Zhengde disciplined Qin Lan.
It's over on Wuyi Road.
After Lu Huaijiao finished eating, and after Gu Changzheng finished getting ready, the two of them went out for a walk together.
Walking on the familiar street, the streetlights stretched the two of them into long shadows.
They actually look quite affectionate?
(Gu Changzheng: Be bold, remove the feelings. They are very much in love, extremely much in love.)
Taking advantage of the fact that there were few people on the street and the streetlights were not very bright, Gu Changzheng took the opportunity to grab Lu Huaijiao's hand and intertwined his fingers with hers.
Lu Huaijiao looked at her hands, then looked up at the man beside her.
Gu Changzheng put on a stern face and said seriously, "It's dark, I'm afraid you'll fall."
