Lu Jingyan took a long stride and sat down on the sofa, then casually pulled the drowsy Shi Wan into his arms.
"Wanwan, eat an apple..." Lu Jingyan's alluring voice rang in her ears as he gently coaxed the little white rabbit in his arms.
Looking at the girl with flushed cheeks and slightly upturned red lips, Lu Jingyan swallowed hard.
"Hmm... I don't want to eat it, it's too cold," Shi Wan said softly and coquettishly. Lu Jingyan, who had intended to play the gentleman for a while, looked even more unfathomable.
"Then let your husband feed you, it won't be cold." After saying that, he picked up a small piece and put it in his own mouth, then leaned down and kissed the dazed girl.
Shi Wan's mind instantly cleared. What was this man up to now? Last time, he made her blush whenever she saw strawberries or cherries; was he now going after apples?
Shi Wan felt numb all over from the kiss and leaned limply against Lu Jingyan's chest. As if sensing his change, Shi Wan was startled reflexively.
"You!" Shi Wan's cheeks flushed red again at his reaction.
"Wanwan, I'm in pain..." Lu Jingyan's seductive voice rang in her ears.
"Could you..." she asked, her voice a mix of pleading and allure.
"I...I can't..." Shi Wan's soft voice rang out, the blush on her face and the fine beads of sweat on the tip of her nose showing how nervous she was.
"Wanwan, be good, your husband will teach you." Lu Jingyan's hoarse voice struck Shi Wan again and again.
...
When Shi Wan woke up, it was already dinner time. Looking at the busy figure in the kitchen, and thinking about what Lu Jingyan had just guided her to do.
Shi Wan felt that the man in front of her was a complete scoundrel, and he even dragged her into it.
Ouch...it hurts so much.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Shi Wan got up and glanced around the living room. Fortunately, Lu Jingyan had already cleaned up the "battlefield," otherwise it would have been really inappropriate to let the guests in now.
Lu's mother stood at the door carrying a large food box. When she saw Shi Wan open the door for her, she looked at Shi Wan with a smile.
"Wanwan, we have some fresh grouper today. I had it delivered to your house and steamed it for you. Try it quickly, or it will get cold."
Lu Jingyan leaned against the kitchen door with his hands crossed, his face dark. His mother, who never lifted a finger in the kitchen, had been spending a lot of time in the kitchen ever since Wanwan was born, and she would occasionally bring him homemade tonics.
After the Xindu incident, in addition to giving Lu Jingyan a severe scolding, Lu's parents also demanded that they personally prepare food for their future daughter-in-law from now on.
Lu's mother said that if her foolish son could take good care of Wanwan, she wouldn't have been hurt again and again.
As a result, the entire Lu family had virtually no trust in Lu Jingyan's ability to protect Shi Wan. Even Lu Nan and Lu Bei, the two little ones, began to doubt their uncle's competence.
"Get out of the way, don't block the way!" Lu's mother pushed Lu Jingyan with disdain.
Lu's mother quickly arranged the dishes on the table, afraid that Lu Jingyan would take over her job at any moment.
Lu Jingyan's face darkened even more. Lately, his mother would call every mealtime, saying, "Come downstairs and wait for me now. Don't make anything for Wanwan to eat. Throw it all away; she won't have any appetite if she sees it."
So, he's not his biological son?
Lu Jingyan glanced at the two people chatting and laughing at the table; he didn't even deserve a set of chopsticks and a bowl.
"Ayan, come and eat quickly. Your aunt made your favorite dishes today." Shi Wan looked at Lu's mother with a smile.
The man leaning against the door frame slowly uttered two words with a gloomy face: "Not hungry."
Shi Wan looked at Lu Jingyan in confusion, while Lu Mu glanced at him and said, "Ignore him, Wanwan. He'll come when he's hungry."
After saying that, he put another piece of tender fish into Shi Wan's bowl.
"Come on, try this. Mom went to the market early this morning to see this grouper. It's so beautiful. I thought that since you're practicing dance, you can't eat too much fatty food. Fish is the best choice, and it won't make you fat."
As she spoke, she placed a peeled shrimp on Shi Wan's plate.
Lu Jingyan coldly watched his mother diligently feeding Shi Wan, and secretly felt jealous as he took out his phone and dialed his father's number.
"Dad, have you eaten? Why don't you come over to the apartment and grab something to eat? Mom made grouper today. I think you like it too, but I don't usually see her making it for you."
Mr. Lu suddenly looked up from a pile of documents, his tone revealing considerable dissatisfaction.
"Hmph! How dare you say that? If you had any backbone and protected Wanwan, would your mother have to worry so much? I told you to bring Wanwan to live at the old house, but you wouldn't. Now look what's happened, I'm a retired person who has come back to be your laborer. What are we eating every day? Leftovers and cold food!"
Lu Jingyan raised an eyebrow, picked up his phone, took a picture of the dining table, and sent it to the camera.
"Dad, look at how many meals Mom has cooked for you all these years since she married you!"
Mr. Lu then opened the WeChat chat window, saw the exquisite dishes on the table, snorted twice, and threw the documents in his hand away.
"When are you coming back, you brat? I'm quitting!"
"No, Dad, you can't blame me for this. I get the news as soon as something happens at the company. There are so many people working there, and they can't even handle basic things. What am I supposed to do with them?"
"You agree, don't you?" Lu Jingyan smiled sinisterly.
"Besides, Dad, Mom's only interest in cooking is short-lived. If she doesn't want to cook anymore, you won't get any benefits from her."
After a moment of contemplation, Mr. Lu said that since Lu Jingyan took over the Lu Group, its business empire has expanded further and its scope of operations has broadened. Even if he were to completely disregard it now, it would still be enough to feed more than ten generations.
The more he thought about it, the more something seemed wrong. He had worked so hard to take over this guy's job, and now he was getting no credit and even being disliked. He decided to quit and go home to be with his wife!
He grabbed his clothes and strode out, leaving Zhou Yuan, who had just come in carrying a pile of documents, stunned for a moment.
This morning he went to great lengths to coax the company chairman from the old house, but now who has upset him?
Zhou Yuan immediately realized what was happening and called out to Lu's father, "Chairman, you still have documents that need your signature!"
Mr. Lu waved his hand dismissively, "Give this to Lu Jingyan, I'm not doing this job!"
The secretary, walking towards the office, looked at Zhou Yuan with a puzzled expression. "Chairman, what's going on? There's an online meeting later. Who will chair it?"
Zhou Yuan, looking distressed, said, "Make the call, and whoever answers will be in charge!"
Secretary: Oh no, I've been dumped with all the problems!
"What about the air routes in Country Y?" The secretary looked at Zhou Yuan with difficulty. "The Feng family, in collusion with foreign forces, seized the operating rights of the air routes in Country Y."
After tidying up the documents that Lu's father had thrown on the ground, Zhou Yuan looked at his secretary and said, "The Morgan family will take action."
