Sweet Wife in My Arms Chapter 853

Chapter 853 - The Unpopular Heroine

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

“Your grandson has married an old infertile hen that can’t lay any eggs. Do you want your Lu family line to die out?”

Ye Jianguo was being unremorsefully blunt and deliberately chose the harshest words, satisfied only when he was sure that there was not a shred of sugarcoating left.

“That is a Lu family matter, so enlighten me how this is any of your concern?” Old Master Lu planted his feet on the ground and stood up. He walked over to the window to part the curtains, opening them to a delightful verdant scenery of green where summer had made its arrival known.

“Ye Jianguo, you should mind your own business. Yan Huan isn’t alone, she still has the support of the entire Ye family. What kind of daughter-in-law the Ye family has is the business of the Ye family and the Ye family alone. You can be as vicious and unscrupulous as you want, but I, Lu Yuanyang want no part in it. I will not let my grandson divorce Yan Huan. I am forever grateful to her for saving the lives of my son, daughter-in-law, and grandson.”

“Of course…” He let out a cold laugh, “I had forgotten how she saved your entire family. I won’t bring it up. After all, that’s your Ye family’s business, not mine. You’re not young anymore and you don’t want to taint your conscience and innocence. It can’t be redeemed when you’re dead and gone.”

Ye Jianguo had pushed aside all pleasantries so of course, Old Master Lu did not need to be courteous anymore.

They were not stupid. Everyone knew who was in the right and who was in the wrong.

Ye Jianguo was not young anymore, but this was the first time that he had been schooled in such a harsh and unforgiving manner. No one else would have dared to scold him in such a way, but this was not just anybody, this was a man that was the same age as him and had also weathered the hardships of the world.

Ye Jianguo slammed his cellphone down. He had never expected that the Lu family would be so protective of Yan Huan. Also, he had never planned to hound her to death, he only wanted to teach the naive Yan Huan a lesson.

Since persuasion or intimidation did not work, then it was time for more drastic measures.

He had not expected the Lu family to be this conflicted about this situation.

Yes, he had succeeded and he had managed to deliver a blow to Yan Huan. However, he had also offended the Lu family at the same time. At his age, reputation was of the utmost importance to maintain. Regardless, he did not think that he did anything wrong and he would never claim otherwise even if the world was against him.

It was not his fault. However, the thing about blind confidence was that in the end, one would only hurt himself and not anybody else.

The issue of Yan Huan being infertile had a big impact. However, most people were very compassionate toward her about it. Thankfully, there were also not many people who were vindictive and sought to exploit it. Yan Huan did not provide any comment on it and so the company did not provide any explanation either. No matter how big the impact, it was now in the past. This industry had a short attention span and one could not expect to be unforgettable in the people’s minds. All memories would fade away and inevitably be forgotten one day.

As for Yan Huan, she had holed herself up in her house. She did not check her cell phone, watch television, or pick up any calls. Lu Yi had brought her many novels to read so she filled her days with them. Lu Yi only worked for half the day and spent his remaining time with her. Her mood had improved tremendously, but she had yet to express any desire to leave the house.

However, Lu Yi was not worried. He would not mind even if Yan Huan remained at home like a turtle in its shell forever. There was a homely atmosphere here, she got everything she wished for and was free from any worries or pain.

“Has that film aired yet?” One day, Yan Huan murmured to herself while she was having her meal. Based on her estimations, the time was near.

“Yeah, it’s going to air the day after tomorrow.”

Lu Yi knew something was up, “Why? Do you want to watch it?” He placed some more food into Yan Huan’s bowl, “Eat more, you finally look like you have some meat on your bones.”

Yan Huan felt her cheeks, “Yeah, feels chubbier.” Lu Yi was overjoyed every time she gained weight as it was impossibly hard for her to pack on the pounds with her poor constitution. The weight she had worked hard to put on would disappear every time she shot a film or got sick.

“Can you accompany me?” Yan Huan had only remembered that it was the day after tomorrow after Lu Yi reminded her, “I want to see myself trying to act cute like an 18-year-old.”

“Fine.” Lu Yi replied as he filled up another bowl of soup for her, “Finish this.”

Yan Huan held onto the bowl and drank her fill heartily. The way Lu Yi took care of her was not unlike how a farmer fattened up his livestock. Not only had she gained weight, but her appetite had also improved as well.

In actual fact, Yan Huan was not very excited about the film. In her opinion, this was just another mindless fodder of a film, but the audience would still excitedly snap up the tickets.

She laid her head on Lu Yi’s lap while she cuddled a lavender bear plush which was a gift from Lu Yi in her arms. She had always treasured it and would constantly embrace it. It was a habit she had, she needed to cuddle something to feel safe. Every time Lu Yi left for work, he could only leave her after he had placed the lavender bear plush in her arms while she slept at night.

Lu Yi understood that perhaps she felt insecure, so he purposefully set aside some time to accompany her. They had already missed out on two years of their lives and he did not want to miss out any further.

The film had started and he was at a loss to describe it.

Yan Huan felt the same. The costumes were first class, the props, the production team and actresses were top-notch as well, but the heroine was rather unpopular.

This was the film that had finally been shot after the director had been so close to exploding from frustration and Yan Huan just wanted to laugh. When she had shot this, she had not felt it at the scene, but now when it was being shown right to her face, it was just hilarious.

What was this film called again? The Life of a Middle-Class Queen? It seemed more like The Slums of a Middle-Class Queen.

The film received pretty good ratings and could be counted as one of the more outstanding films this season. It had been well received by the younger audience and was a good start, especially since the TV series was in a downturn phase.

It had made a couple of actresses famous, even one of the actresses’ dog became famous. However, the main heroine just did not seem to be popular.

Sun Yuhan’s efforts had not been wasted either. She had filmed yet another blockbuster film but it now seemed like she was following in the footsteps of Su Muran.

Right, Su Muran. Yan Huan had been so preoccupied with Sun Yuhan and Ye family affairs that she had forgotten all about Su Muran. What happened to her? Had she died yet?

It did not seem like it.

She wanted to see Su Muran’s reaction when she found out that her husband had been cheating on her with another woman while she was sick.

Hmm, would she be like her past self? She was actually looking forward to it but she felt a little guilty at the same time.
