âDid something happen to Mingyu?
âNothing,â Chen Suâs eyes were a bit evasive, and his tone was as casual as possible. âSomeone sent some gory photos to the company, but Iâve already reported it to the police and taken care of it. Itâs nothing.â
âPhotos?â Lu Yang put down her chopsticks, turned her head, and looked at Chen Su. She inquired, âWhat photos?â
Chen Su clicked on his phone and clicked a few times. A photo of a swan with its neck cut open appeared in Lu Yangâs sight.
He elaborated, âJust this one. Itâs been taken care of.â
Lu Yang looked at the photo with furrowed brows and asked, âDid you catch the person? What did they say?â
âMisdelivered. It was a photo taken by a photographer at a breeding farm, but it was sent to the company by mistake.â Chen Su sighed. âAfter reporting it to the police, we found the person, and he apologized.â
âDo you believe it?â Lu Yang asked.
If it werenât for the netizens who had already died from the white swan incident, Chen Suâs answer would certainly be believed, but now he couldnât even deceive himself.
Lu Yang enlarged and then shrank the photo with her fingers, repeating this action for a long time before speaking, âCan you send me a copy of the photo?â
Chen Su was taken aback. âOkay.â
After instructing the store manager, Lu Mingyu left with Chen Su driving them home.
Lu Yang didnât sleep well last night and had been busy at the hospital all day. At this moment, she was already exhausted.
The occasional bumps on the road made her head tilt slightly to the left. The cool wind of early autumn blew in through the car window. Lu Mingyu noticed and rolled up the window, then stretched his arm and took a blanket, spreading it on his shoulder and finally letting Lu Yangâs head rest against the blanket on his shoulder.
Chen Su held the steering wheel and glanced at the rearview mirror. Although he had known Lu Mingyu for many years, he couldnât help but be surprised.
High and cold, as well as silly, were words to describe Lu Mingyu, but thoughtfulness was not.
The focus and tenderness that he did not show in front of anyone were all fully displayed in front of Lu Yang.
Chen Su couldnât help but think back to the days when Lu Yang refused to see her family, and every wish of Lu Mingyuâs was related to her.
Before seeing Lu Yang, Chen Su didnât understand why Lu Mingyu was so good to his rebellious sister.
But now, he seemed to understand.
As soon as the car entered the gate of the Lu residence, Lu Yang woke up. She didnât get up immediately. She waited for the car to stop steadily before slowly getting up.
Lu Mingyuâs shoulder was numb, and he moved it a few times before taking big strides to catch up with Lu Yangâs pace.
âYangyang, Dad will be very happy when he sees you when he comes back.â
âOkay.â
However, what Lu Yang saw was not the loving eyes of Lu Chen. His sharp eyes were directly focused on Lu Mingyu, and he angrily asked, âWho told you to take her on the show?â
Not only was Lu Mingyu shocked, but Ning Qingyun also looked confused.
This wasnât the script they had prepared, right?
Originally, the script was that as soon as Lu Yang entered the door, they would all show the brightest smiles, welcoming Lu Yang home officially.
And then they would all sing together:
Say goodbye to all the troubles, say hi to all the happiness.
But the result wasâ¦
Lu Mingyu widened his eyes and asked Ning Qingyun for an answer, âWhatâs going on, Mom? Has your dear husband been replaced?â
Ning Qingyun was even more confused:
âI donât think so, but maybe my husbandâs brain fell out at yesterdayâs banquet, and he forgot to pick it up.â
Lu Yang rubbed her forehead helplessly. â⦠Dad, donât pretend. Our familyâs acting skills are not good.â
Lu Chenâs serious face instantly turned into a fatherly smile. He pushed his glasses up and his attitude changed 180 degrees when he spoke to Lu Yang. âIt had to be Yang yng who could tell I was pretending at a glance.â
He even gave Lu Mingyu a disdainful look.
Lu Mingyu snorted, unwilling to admit defeat. âEven Mom didnât realize you were pretending.â
Normally, Ning Qingyun would put on an angry pose, but when Lu Yang came back, she was so happy that she didnât even pay attention to Lu Mingyuâs attempts to stir up trouble. She ordered the butler to prepare food for Lu Yang and pulled her to sit on the sofa.
Last time, they were in a hurry when Lu Yang came back, and afterward, Lu Yang participated in a variety show while Ning Qingyun went out on a business trip, so they didnât really get to spend time together.
The distance and sadness brought by time had already dissipated, leaving only the joy of the whole family being reunited.
Lu Mingyu angrily picked up an apple from the crystal table and took a big bite, complaining to Lu Chen, âYou disobeyed the directorâs command and destroyed my carefully planned program. Thatâs too much.â
Lu Chen replied calmly, âI only participate in programs that have value. Your brain canât bring any benefits, so the plan didnât pass.â
Lu Mingyu roared in his heart.
Everyone took advantage to bully Lu Mingyu in front of his precious younger sister, which was so despicable.
Ning Qingyun held Lu Yangâs hand with a smile on her face and said, âYou father and son pair are still the same as when you were younger and always bickering. Canât you be more mature?â
Lu Yang remembered that during holidays and festivals, Ning Qingyun and Lu Chen would bring Lu Mingyu and her together, but every time ended in a funny way. Lu Mingyu could never win against Lu Chen, and being a child, he would resort to his advantage of being a kid and cry his heart out until the world collapsed and the sea dried up. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Without a doubt, Lu Mingyu would be pulled aside by Lu Chen, who would enjoy watching him cry⦠and even record it on video.
At that time, Lu Yang was also very young, but as soon as Lu Mingyu cried, she laughed. The more fiercely he cried, the more brilliant her smile became. At dusk and in all seasons, the two young siblings seemed to be performing a show of âyou cry, I laugh.â
In the end, Lu Mingyu would wrinkle his nose and stare at Lu Yang, asking angrily, âHave you laughed enough?â Lu Yang looked at him with expectant eyes and shook her head.
Lu Mingyu was at a loss for words.
Lu Yang then spoke in a childish voice, âBrother, itâs cool to cry.â
Lu Mingyu replied, â⦠Alright then, since you said Iâm cool, Iâll cry for you to see!
Afraid of her silly brother crying until he went blind, Lu Yang changed her words. âMingyu, you look so good when you smile. Like the flowers of spring, the sun of summer, the fruits of autumn, and the frost of winter.â
Lu Mingyu was delighted with the compliment and hummed those few words repeatedly every day, making Lu Yangâs ears calloused.
As they grew older and met less frequently, they began to miss the past.
However, now they have new expectations.
âOh, by the way,â Ning Qingyun suddenly said, âLu Chen, why donât we let
Mingyu take Yangyang to the Huo familyâs banquet tomorrow?â
Lu Chen nodded and said, âOkay, since the entire Lu familyâs business will eventually be inherited by Yangyang, itâs good for her to meet other people now.â
âWhat?â Lu Yang was confused.
Lu Mingyu explained, âYangyang, you are the only heir to our family.â
Lu Yang asked, âWhat about you?â
Lu Mingyu replied, âAll my things will be left to you!â
The heir inherits all the belongings of Lu Chen, Ning Qingyun, and Lu Mingyu.
âAlso.â Lu Chen elaborated, âthe Huo family is the investor for your participation in variety shows..â
