If she didn’t have the support of this kind and considerate grandfather, she wouldn’t be able to last for four years.
On hindsight, she wouldn’t even be able to enter the Lu family without the old man in the first place.
Old Master Lu exerted pressure on Lu Yinan to bring her back to their family.
Old Master Lu nodded. “Eat.”
Zhou Shuang hung her head, and she hesitated for a while. She raised her head and said, “I’ve found an apartment and it’s near my workplace. I will move out in the next two days.”
The old man was taken aback.
Lu Yinan’s mother shrilly exclaimed, “You want to move out?!”
A deep crease appeared in the middle of her eyebrows, and she looked exceedingly angry and annoyed.
The old man’s voice rang calmly across her. “Xiaoshuang, I’m not sure what happened between you and Yinan. But if you don’t want to see him, I can chase him away.”
Zhou Shuang shook her head. “It’s not that, Grandfather.”
“Then why do you have to move out? What about the children?” Lu Yinan’s mother frowned at Zhou Shuang as she threw her a question.
Zhou Shuang managed a tiny smile. “With Aunt taking care of them, I won’t have to worry.”
Lu Yinan’s mother finally realized that Zhou Shuang had changed the way she addressed her.
When she first arrived, she kept calling her aunt. Lu Yinan’s mother sternly corrected her and she finally called her ‘Mom’.
At that time, she really wanted to be part of the family. So, she addressed her as a mom and she got used to it.
Lu Yinan’s mother put her cutlery down and grabbed Zhou Shuang’s hand. “Xiaoshuang, you should talk it out if you have any differences in opinions. There are not unforgivable mistakes right? If you are angry or unhappy, you can vent it out on Yinan. If you leave like this, what would happen to the children?”
Although she didn’t entirely approve Zhou Shuang, especially about her lifestyle and habits.
Neither did she want her to leave.
Putting aside the bond they had built over the years, she was still the mother of her grandchildren, how could she let her leave?
Zhou Shuang glanced at her with an unfaltering smile. “I’m not worried since you will take good care of them.”
Lu Yinan’s mother frowned. “Of course, we will take good care of them. But there is no way we can replace you as their mother…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Lu Yinan flung his cutlery aside and it fell with a clang. “Enough. If she wants to leave, then let her. Why should you force her to stay?”
He cast Zhou Shuang a cold look and stood up. He stormed out of the dining room in a huff.
Old Master Lu yelled, “Lu Yinan, what’s that attitude!”
He hastily got up to chase after Lu Yinan.
“Father, don’t be angry. Simmer down.” The old man’s health had worried Lu Yinan’s mother.
Although he was healthy and strong, he was indeed getting on in age. Zhou Shuang was worried so she got up and chased after them.
Lu Yinan left the dining room and went up the stairs.
The old man couldn’t catch up, so he stood at the staircase landing and bellowed. “Are you getting rebellious?! Didn’t I ask you to stop!”
Lu Yinan ignored him and turned around without a word. The next moment, he vanished out of sight.
The old man was turning red with anger. He turned around and glanced at Zhou Shuang. “Xiaoshuang, I will support your decision,” said the old man as he patted her.
