191: Chapter 167 If we are destined in the future, we walk together_1 191: Chapter 167 If we are destined in the future, we walk together_1 Xia Zhen looked at Nanxiâs slightly flushed face, then at her tall sonâs smile, and thought about her sonâs words last night about the prospect of having grandchildren.
She felt that this daughter-in-law was finally certain!
Deep down, Xia Zhen decided that she would discuss with Mum Yu later about preparing a few nourishing dishes for lunch â there was no alternative, Nanxi was too thin.
If she got pregnant in the future and remained this thin, it would not be good!
At eight in the morning, the elderly master got up.
Nanxi and Lu Yinchu went to see the old master.
The old master was very happy to see Nanxi.
He held her hand and talked for a while, and Nanxi listened very seriously.
Occasionally, she gave some advice, which the old master found comfort in hearing.
âYou see, I have lived to this age, tasted the bitterness and enjoyed the happiness of life.
I have had more than enough of both.
I have bid farewell to my wife, numerous brothers, and even my own granddaughterâ¦
With each farewell, I felt as though I wouldnât make it, but each time, I did!â
The old master sighed and continued, âIn life, we will encounter many obstacles, large and small, easy and difficult.
Everyone stumbles over their obstacles.
Once you overcome them, you move forward in life.
But if you canât overcome them, then you will be stuck in one place foreverâ¦
As for me, I have crossed many hurdles, stumbled upon many times.
But I know that the reason why I continue to persevere is not anything else, but the reluctance to leave you all behind.
I want to see each of you doing well, living happily and healthily, on behalf of those who canâtâ¦â
âGirl, I really like you.
If you feel that the members of our Lu family have treated you well, you should settle down with Yinchu sooner.
Rest assured, once youâre part of our Lu family, I will not let anyone bully you.
As long as I live, I will protect you.
Even when I canât, my son and daughter-in-law will protect youâ¦
We will never treat you poorly.â
Listening to the old masterâs words, Nanxiâs heart ached.
She wondered how she could deserve to join such a good family and such a good person.
She was simply not qualified!
â¦
After the old master had breakfast, he didnât feel very energetic.
Xia Zhen persuaded him to rest, and Nanxi came out of the old masterâs room.
Xia Zhen said that Lu Yinchu was upstairs.
Nanxi went upstairs, planning to ask Lu Yinchu to take her away.
If she stayed here longer, she would get used to it and grow fond of it, making it hard to separate afterwards!
As Nanxi reached the door of the bedroom, it was slightly ajar and unlocked.
She prepared to push it open, and Lu Yinchuâs voice came from inside-
âSo, youâre suggesting that I should make plans for her?â
Then came a chuckle, and Lu Yinchu said, âShaojing, you know that Iâve always been clear-cut when dealing with emotional issues, I dislike complications!â
Nanxi paused, her fingers on the doorknob stiffened, she hesitated whether to go in or stay out.
Nanxi took a deep breath, decided to turn around and leave.
Lu Yinchu was on the phone, she had no reason to go inâ¦
Unexpectedly, the moment she lifted her foot, Lu Yinchu sensed her presence and called out to her, âNanxiâ¦â
Nanxi paused, and Lu Yinchu then told the person on the other side of the phone, âI have something to do, Iâll hang up nowâ¦
You handle it, do not make me doubt your abilitiesâ¦
Iâm hanging up!â
Nanxi was stuck there, unsure whether to stay or leave.
Then she saw Lu Yinchu coming towards her!
The room door opened, Lu Yinchu reached out and pulled her in, âWhy are you standing at the door?
Do you want to be a door god?â
Nanxi: ââ¦â
Nanxi did not want to interact with Lu Yinchu, it wasnât the first time she was demeaned by him for her naivety.
She said, âI want to visit my uncle, I wonât be home for lunch!â
Lu Yinchu looked at her, she turned her head, not looking at him, appearing indifferent!
âI must go back, I am worried about my uncle!â said Nanxi.
Lu Yinchu compromised, âAlright, Iâll take you there!â
Nanxi was surprised.
She didnât expect that Lu Yinchu would agree so readily, but it was good that he did!
Xia Zhen was disappointed knowing Nanxi would not be home for lunch, but when she heard about the burglary at Nanxiâs uncleâs place, she became anxious too.
She instructed her son-
âWe should have visited Nanxiâs uncle personally, but with your father busy and a housewife like me unable to make decisions, it had to be delayed.
Therefore, you should have a clear understanding of the situation and offer help as much as you canâ¦
Understand?â
âMother, donât worry.
Nanxiâs uncle is my uncle too, Iâll naturally help!â
Lu Yinchuâs smooth reply left Nanxi standing beside him, sour and tongue-tied!
Lu Yinchu would make a perfect actor!
Nanxi was pulled onto the car by Lu Yinchu, Xia Zhen watched as the car drove away.
Mum Yu came up and sighed, âIt seems young master is finally serious this time!â
Xia Zhen was delighted to hear this, âYouâre right!
All these years, heâs always been quiet and indifferent.
I was afraid he would end up alone.
Now that thereâs finally a girl whom he acknowledges and is willing to cherish, my heart can finally be at ease!â
Having said this, Xia Zhenâs eyes began to well up.
Mum Yu comforted her, âMadam, this is something to be happy about, you should be smiling, not crying!â
Xia Zhen nodded, sniffing, âYouâre speaking the truth, itâs a happy occasion!
After all these years, this is indeed the happiest thing that has happenedâ¦â
Mum Yu agreed, âHowever, Iâm somewhat sorry for Miss Han, after all these years, I always thought that the young master was with her!â
Xia Zhenâs eyes flickered, she instructed Mum Yu â âDonât mention anything about Han Qing to anyone, especially Nanxi!â
Mum Yu nodded, âDonât worry, Madam, Iâve taken note!â
â¦
Finally, the car left the Lu mansion.
Nanxi let out a sigh of relief and her discomfort immediately subsided.
Lu Yinchu, noticing her condition, frowned and asked â âDoes my house make you feel that suffocated?â
Nanxi was taken aback and shook her head, âNo!
I just feel a bit uncomfortable in your home!â
After a pause, she added, âYou think everyone in the world is like you, speaking lies as easily as breathing!â
Remembering Lu Yinchuâs expression when he previously said, âNanxiâs uncle is my uncle tooâ, Nanxi shivered!
This manâs skin was surely too thick!
Lu Yinchu moved his thin lips.
His hand reached out and ruffled her soft hair.
Nanxi tried to avoid his touch but was not successful.
Lu Yinchu was satisfied.
He did not overstep any boundaries and quickly took his hand back.
He then said, âNanxi, if in the future, we end up together, then all Iâve said and done before will not be considered lies.
So, what you said just now is not right!â
Nanxi was surprised and bit her lip, âMr.
Lu, there is no chance between us!â
