If it weren’t for the people around, she would really like to kiss her dear husband as hard as she could.
However, the current atmosphere was rather awkward. The Lei family was detaching themselves from the situation. Mr Lei was carrying his little grandson while Madam Lei was of course on Ye Shuyun’s side. Mr and Mrs Lei Qingyi were the same. None of them was concerned with the Su family…
Old Master Lu opened the box gifted by Lu Qin. It was a five-colored antique tea set. It could not be compared to the set he had, but he was only left with a teapot from that set. Thus, even though the set given by Lu Qin was not as precious as his, it was still valuable as it was an entire set. It was not possible to compare an entire set and a single teapot as they are not on the same level.
Old Master Lu was very satisfied with the tea set. But, he fixed his gaze on Lu Jin.
“Lu Jin, I thought you have a set too?”
“Cough…” Lu Jin let out a cough. “Dad, the quality of my set is not good.”
Don’t take me as a fool. Lu Jin was clear with what Old Master Lu trying to play. Old Master Lu liked that tea set that he adored. Not that he was reluctant to give it away, but because it was his only set and most importantly it was given by Yan Huan. It was his favorite. Even though his house was filled with antiques, every single one of them was a treasure to him. He was attached to every single piece. Besides, he would not be able to show it off if he did so.
“When are you going to show it around?” Old Master Lu raised his eyes. He was being extremely shameless now.
“Oh. Okay dad. I will.”
Lu Jin answered so, but he knew that he had to transfer his antiques. If he did not do so, his dad would find all sorts of reasons to get his hands on them. Taking them away was fine, but his dad would not stop until he owned them. He still loved to smash them.
It would be such a waste if his antiques were destroyed.
Not many people were invited by Old Master Lu, only enough for two tables. Su Qingdong sat with Su Muran. Next to them was Lu Qin and his mother. Their intentions were very obvious.
If there were no unforeseen circumstances, Lu Qin and Su Muran’s relationship was already as sure as fate.
“Grandfather, Muran and I are good now. We are officially dating.”
“Oh.” Old Master Lu was not surprised. Previously, Lu Qin had brought her back. Thus, it was nonsensical for him to say it again. Even an idiot could see that they were dating.
“I do like Lu Qin very much,” Su Qingdong laughed. His tone was full of flattery. “I only have one daughter right here. Hence, in the future, Old Master Lu should discipline her sternly.”
“Muran is a good girl, you have brought her up well.”
Old Master Lu replied modestly too. The smile frozen on his face was a little stilted. Even though Su Muran was not bad, she was unfortunately an actress. Out of all the women in the world, why did Lu Qin want to marry such a woman.
They were all the same. He did not want to care anymore. Let them marry whomever they wanted.
He already despised his first grandson’s family. He would most likely feel the same about his second grandson’s family in the future.
Fine, I can’t control them anyway. They can do whatever they want. The only thing he thought of now was how to liberate a few pieces from his son’s antique collection.
Old Master Lu did not care much. He did not care about their feelings. It was his birthday, so he would just focus on the gifts he received. Who cared about what chaos his grandchildren were stirring up so long as it didn’t get out of hand?
“I think I may have to address you as my sister-in-law soon.” Su Muran walked over and stopped in front of Yan Huan. “I wonder how the box office would be for Linlang’s first movie. I’m looking forward to it.”
She smiled widely, but it was obviously forced.
“Sister-in-law? Don’t flatter me. It’s still too early to say. Let’s wait till you get married to Lu Qin,” said Yan Huan as she scrolled through her phone in boredom. “You aren’t officially married to him yet. Hence, some may think that you guys are having a clandestine affair. The reputation of a woman is very important. Since you still don’t have a title, please don’t get ahead of yourself.”
The smile in Su Muran’s eyes faded as flames of anger flared up in her eyes, not quite scorching but full of hatred.
“Yan Huan. With your potential, how high do you think your box office can go?” She covered her mouth and tittered. “I wish that you will suffer great losses to the extent that you would have no place to sleep.”
“Thank you for your blessing, I’ll try my very best,” thanked Yan Huan as she raised her head. The smile on her face was faint. “I will try to lose even my underwear.”
Su Muran choked on her words. However, she was suppressed by Yan Huan in everything and was now in the Lu family’s territory. Thus, she did not dare act out against Yan Huan blatantly.
If she could, she would really like to choke this woman to death right here.
She could not understand why Yan Huan had to exist in this world and why that person belonged to Yan Huan.
Yan Huan was against her in everything, snatching away everything she had.
In their past lives, they must had been enemies. Their hatred must have trickled down to this lifetime and was increasing year by year.
Hence, it must have been fated that they would fight till their deaths.
“Huanhuan, let’s go,” Lu Yi walked over and held Yan Huan’s hand. He tried to soothe her emotions as he saw that she was unhappy.
“Don’t get too bothered by inconsequential people. I will bring you for cake in a while.”
“Okay.” Hearing this, Yan Huan ran headlong into Lu Yi’s arms. “I want to have a big piece of cake. The biggest piece is mine.”
“Alright.” Lu Yi pinched her nose and helped to straighten her dress. He did not even look at Su Muran who was clenching her teeth at the side. They were showing their affection towards each other publicly. Only a deformed person would stay and watch them.
Yan Huan liked cake so much because it was made personally by Prosecutor Lu. Even though it tasted average, to Yan Huan it was the most delicious food. It was irreplaceable. She would not give it away even if she was offered something better.
Lu Yi took the scarf on his neck and wrapped it around Yan Huan’s neck. Then, he tied it firmly for her. It was winter and the weather was cold.
He touched Yan Huan’s face. Fortunately, it was not frozen.
Yan Huan did not venture around this winter because she was afraid that her face might get frostbiten. She suffered from frostbite every year. It would be fine if it was just her fingers. But, the trouble was that it was always her precious face that was affected.
Lu Yi had consulted He Yibin a few times in order to find ways to prevent her face from getting frostbite. However, He Yibin’s only advice was to avoid going out and to stay warm.
Hence, Yan Huan had been hiding at home for nearly two months. Besides the important advertisements that she had to shoot, she would stay home hugging Little Bean and nourish her body.
Fortunately, up until now, her pretty little face was still perfect and delicate. It had no signs of frostbite.
