Chapter 501: Execute First and Report Later
"Oh?" Zhong Nianyao raised an eyebrow. "What's the problem? I need to know the specific situation before I can answer you and tell you whether it can be solved."
"Are you free in a couple of days?" Long Jiarui asked anxiously, "I'll take you over to have a look then!"
After thinking about it, Zhong Nianyao nodded and said, "Okay!"
Although I don’t know what exactly happened to the Long family, it seems that they are really in a hurry.
Therefore, it is best to get it done before the engagement party, otherwise you will have to leave for Changbai Mountain after the engagement party and you won’t know when you will come back.
"Okay, tomorrow then!" Long Jiarui quickly agreed, "I'll send a car to pick you up at your house tomorrow!"
Looking at Long Jiarui's anxious look, Zhong Nianyao nodded, thinking to herself, it seems that the matter of the Long family is really big!
Zhong Nianyao nodded and said nothing.
"Third sister-in-law, niece-in-law, I didn't expect you two to have such a good chat!"
Lu Yile walked in with his arms around Meng Rou, a teasing smile on his face.
Meng Rou snuggled up to Lu Yile obediently. Although she was not pregnant yet, she was wearing loose clothes and looked like a pregnant woman.
Seeing Lu Yilei coming, Long Jiarui stood up and nodded slightly to greet him, "Uncle!"
Zhong Nianyao, on the other hand, had no intention of getting up. She continued to sit there, looking lazy, and even just raised her hand to say hello!
In response, Lu Yile didn't say anything, but just sat down with his arm around Meng Rou.
He was not giving face to Zhong Nianyao, but to Lu Yichen. Everyone in the Lu family knew how much Lu Yichen valued Zhong Nianyao, and he didn't want to make trouble for Lu Yichen.
"Third sister-in-law came here today to discuss the engagement, right?" Lu Yilei said with a smile, "The time is really tight!"
"Yeah!" Zhong Nianyao nodded, "Fortunately, there's still time."
Meng Rou sat obediently beside Lu Yile, looking gentle and lovely.
However, when no one could see, Meng Rou looked at Zhong Nian Yao, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison.
The entire Lu family was now beaming with joy, busy preparing for Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao's engagement. Soon, the engagement banquet would be held, and she would marry into the Lu family with everyone's blessings.
But she, who was even pregnant with Lu Yilei's child, was rejected. Even if she had a child, she would not be recognized by the Lu family.
Is this kind of differential treatment really fair?
When she thought of this, she couldn't control her jealousy.
As if sensing Meng Rou's hatred, Zhong Nian Yao suddenly looked up and gave Meng Rou a bright smile.
Meng Rou, who was originally jealous, was suddenly shocked when she saw Zhong Nianyao's smile. She immediately calmed down and stopped having wild thoughts.
She didn't know whether Zhong Nian Yao had noticed anything, but she didn't dare to show her hatred anymore.
Now Mr. Lu values Zhong Nianyao very much. Zhong Nianyao's status in the Lu family is not low, and she can't afford to offend her for the time being. Now she has to be humble and act after careful consideration.
Lu Yilei chatted with Zhong Nianyao and Long Jiarui in a haphazard manner. Meng Rou, who was standing beside them, said nothing but sat there quietly, a proper smile on her face.
This was the scene that Mr. Lu and Lu Yichen saw when they went downstairs to the living room.
Mr. Lu frowned slightly and said with some displeasure, "Didn't I tell you not to bring back some messy people casually?"
Today, when Lu Yilei was hosting Zhong Nianyao, he actually brought Meng Rou back with him. Everyone who came to his house today was his family, so was Lu Yilei bringing Meng Rou here to deliberately slap him in the face?
Hearing Mr. Lu's words of disgust, which were concealed without any concealment, Meng Rou's face turned pale in an instant, and her expression became somewhat dejected. She looked deeply shocked and seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
"Dad, you're really going too far." Lu Yilei couldn't help but speak in Meng Rou's defense. "Meng Rou is still pregnant with my child, and what about your grandson? Even if you don't want to give face to the monk, you have to give face to the Buddha!"
"I don't know if that's your child," Old Master Lu said coldly, "but I can say this right here: I will never acknowledge this grandson."
Meng Rou stood up immediately, her face pale and her tone filled with endless grievance. She looked at Lu Yile with tears in her eyes, "Yilei, I...I'd better go back first, so as not to affect your mood."
Seeing Meng Rou so delicate, Lu Yilei was truly heartbroken. However, before he could even open his mouth, Mr. Lu's words were like a bucket of cold water, pouring down his heart.
"If you don't want to stay in the Lu family, you can leave with her." Old Master Lu said coldly, "Just like I said before, as long as you leave the Lu family, I will no longer interfere in your affairs. Whoever you want to marry is your freedom."
Suddenly, Lu Yile was caught in a dilemma.
The others were silent and didn't say anything.
At this moment, Zhong Nian Yao suddenly burst out laughing.
Such a sudden laughter was particularly noticeable in such a dull atmosphere. Suddenly, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhong Nianyao.
Zhong Nianyao stepped forward and said with a smile, "Uncle Lu, why are you so angry? It's said that everyone who comes to your house is a guest. Today, Miss Meng and I are both guests. You shouldn't be so partial to one over the other! Besides, it's just a meal. Even if it's a guest, it's normal to leave a meal for him!"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Yile immediately cast a grateful look towards Zhong Nianyao.
If it was someone else who spoke, Mr. Lu might have hesitated, but now that it was Zhong Nianyao who spoke, it was completely different.
He nodded, not looking at Meng Rou, but instead fixed his gaze on Lu Yilei. "Since you're already here, why not stay for dinner? However, I hope this kind of behavior of acting first and asking for your permission won't happen again. Otherwise, I can't guarantee I'll still be so good-tempered next time."
He had to give Zhong Nianyao this honor today. Apart from anything else, Zhong Nianyao was about to marry Lu Yichen, and even for Lu Yichen's sake, he couldn't directly reject Zhong Nianyao's rare suggestion.
So, no matter how much he hated Meng Rou, he would give in.
