Upon hearing this, Lu Yanhua merely gave a disdainful laugh, then closed her eyes and remained silent.
Lu Yixuan stood to the side, his gaze blank as he witnessed these scenes, his heart filled with shock like a surging tide.
He stared at Lu Yanhua, who had calmed down, his heart filled with panic. He instinctively wanted to ask something, but no sound came out when he opened his mouth.
Suddenly, Lu Yixuan remembered that Lu An'an had silenced him by pressing his acupoint. He took a step forward urgently, wanting Lu An'an to release his silence.
Just then, the door opened again, accompanied by hurried footsteps, and a soft, anxious female voice rang out: "Son~~~~~"
Everyone looked towards the door and saw a woman in a white dress rush into the living room, head straight for Lu Yixuan, hug him tightly, and call out with deep affection, "Son, son, are you alright? Mom is here."
Lu An'an's questioning gaze was fixed on the woman.
[Huh? Where did this person come from?]
He suddenly became gossipy, as if remembering something.
Is this the rich girl my second uncle mentioned, what was her name again?
Oh my god, what's she doing here?
Upon hearing the voice, everyone else immediately focused their attention on the woman in the white dress. Was this Lu Yixuan's mother? Why was she here at this hour? Was she accompanying her son to deliver groceries?
The moment Lu Yixuan's gaze fell upon his mother, an indescribable joy burst forth. He pointed urgently to his throat, his mouth agape, silently pleading for help.
The woman in the white dress stared blankly at her son, who was gesturing wildly but unable to utter a single word, her face filled with sorrow.
"Son, why...why are you mute?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yixuan became even more anxious. He quickly pointed to himself again and then turned to Lu An'an, his eyes filled with both pleading and accusation.
That damned woman! She's the one who made me mute!
The woman in the white dress reacted, turned around abruptly, and glared at Lu An'an with eyes like torches. Her tone was filled with barely concealed anger and accusation: "Did you make my son mute?"
Lu An'an smiled calmly and nodded casually: "It's me."
The woman in the white dress suddenly turned mean-spirited, her voice shrill: "Why did you do this! I advise you to turn my son back right now, or you'll regret it!"
Lu An'an scoffed, "I say, auntie, your threat is completely ineffective and lacks any weight. It doesn't scare me at all."
She sighed softly, her shoulders shrugging slightly. "I didn't feel that kind of threatened fear. If you don't want your son to speak, then let him remain mute. Anyway, his mouth can't speak human language."
The woman in the white dress was taken aback, then her eyes blazed with fury. "How dare you talk to me like that? Do you believe I'll have your grandmother kick you out of the Lu family?!"
Lu An'an raised an eyebrow and nodded, "Fine, then try and see if you can get my grandma to kick me out of the house."
The woman in the white dress heaved with emotion, taking several deep breaths to calm herself. She then rushed towards Old Madam Lu, her eyes brimming with tears, and pleaded, "Mom~ Look at this brat! You have to stand up for me~"
Lu An'an: "..."
No, this auntie doesn't even recognize people, and she's trying to kick me out?
Lu Wenjing frowned as he looked at the affected woman. Was this stupidity contagious?
Startled, Old Madam Lu nimbly dodged the woman's sudden lunge, exclaiming in surprise, "Hey, hey, hey? Who are you? Why are you calling me 'Mom'?"
The woman in the white dress didn't react in time and fell onto the sofa, hitting her head on the edge. She clutched her head in pain, knelt down beside it, and looked at Old Madam Lu with some confusion: "Mom, what are you saying? I'm the second daughter-in-law you personally chose."
At that moment, Lu Minghuai caught a glimpse of the figure at the door out of the corner of his eye. His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly interrupted, "Miss Hou, watch your words! My wife's name is **Yi. Don't talk nonsense!"
Lu An'an also saw the group of people at the door. She nudged Lu Xunran beside her and whispered, "Third Brother, look at the door. Aren't those my two aunts and my brothers and sisters?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Xunran's gaze shifted to the doorway. He paused, then murmured in response, "Indeed, why don't they come in from the doorway?"
Lu An'an glanced at her second uncle, who was almost sweating profusely, and said sympathetically, "He probably wanted to understand what the will to survive is."
Lu Xunran followed her sister's gaze and saw Lu Minghuai, whose body was tense. She couldn't help but laugh out loud: "I bet Uncle is probably itching to rush up and stuff Hou Xiaoling's mouth with a shoe right now."
Lu An'an couldn't hide her amusement: "More than that, didn't you see how Grandpa and Grandma wanted to shut her up? That one squeak of hers gave me goosebumps."
Lu Xunran's mind was filled with Hou Xiaoling's coquettish and affected manner again, and he couldn't help but shiver slightly: "You know what, it really sends chills down my spine."
“Miss, I’m not so confused that I can’t recognize my own daughter-in-law.”
Upon hearing this, Hou Xiaoling's face flashed with surprise. She stared at Old Madam Lu, her tone urgent: "Mom, have you forgotten? Didn't you tell Minghuai to divorce that woman, **Yi, and marry me? I'm Yixuan's mother! Yixuan is Minghuai's beloved youngest son! Have you forgotten? Didn't you say it yourself..."
Before she could finish speaking, a cold male voice from the doorway interrupted her: "Miss Hou, please don't fabricate baseless accusations to deceive everyone. Your son is your son, not my father Lu Minghuai's son."
Lu An'an nodded subconsciously, agreeing in her heart.
"That's right, this woman seems to have delusions. She's barely eaten a few peanuts and she's already dreaming."
[But the person speaking has a rather pleasant voice, it's... wait!]
Lu An'an's gaze swept towards the doorway, where she saw a man standing there, exuding a cool and aloof air, with an outstanding temperament and an exceptionally handsome face. She couldn't take her eyes off him.
[Could this be He Tingyu's white moonlight crush, that domineering older cousin Lu Yuchen who can rival my older brother?! I must say, his face is indeed exquisitely handsome, and oh dear, he even has a beauty mark!]
Lu An'an's brothers immediately turned their gazes to Lu Yuchen, their eyes filled with barely concealed murderous intent.
Lu Wenjing sneered: Ha, can you compare to me? No way. There can only be one other person who is the most handsome in the world of domineering CEOs!
Lu Yanli gritted his teeth: "Small face, delicate? As a movie star who rose to fame in the entertainment industry because of his looks, how could that kid be more delicate than him?!"
Lu Xunran scoffed: What's so great about a beauty mark! He even has a beauty mark under his eye, isn't he charming and captivating!
Lu Yubai was completely disfigured: His sister hadn't even praised him when they first met, so why did this kid have to?! He was going to put a sack over his head and beat him up!!
As soon as Lu Yuchen entered the living room, he looked up and met the murderous gazes of his older brothers. He stood there bewildered, his mind racing.
Huh? What did he do wrong lately? Why do his brothers look like they want to kill him right now?
