Chapter 48 – Brother-in-law? (3)

Recently, Ye Zhen always had a difficult time feeling comfortable. Her hands and feet were prone to feeling cold, and it was difficult to warm them up. After staying in the airport waiting area for so long, it felt as if her extremities had lost all of their warmth. The blanket came at the perfect time.

Ye Zhen sighed. She accepted the blanket as if she was resigning herself to her fate. Her chilled body slowly warmed up.

It didn’t take them long to arrive at the Lu family’s villa.

Lu Beichuan took the lead in leaving the car. Ye Zhen followed after him and reluctantly and slowly walked into the Lu family’s villa.

Mother Lu was currently discussing something with the old butler in the living room.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the old butler looked towards doorway. Seeing the sight at the doorway, he was emotionally moved. Tears appeared in his eyes. “Young Master...”

Faced with the old butler, who had taken care of him for many years, Lu Beichuan’s expression eased a bit, “Uncle Xiao.”

“Beichuan!” Mother Lu looked at Lu Beichuan, who was standing before her. She kept looking at him from top to bottom. Her eyes were full of incredulous excitement. “You... you can stand up?”

Lu Beichuan lightly nodded. “It’s all thanks to William.”

Mother Lu had a lifetime’s worth of worrying ever since Lu Beichuan’s car accident. When she initially found out that Lu Beichuan had been in a car accident, she hoped that he would be okay. When he had been unconscious, she had been hoping he would wake up. After he woke up, she had been hoping that he would be able to stand up again. Now that he was able to stand up, it felt as if a heavy burden on Mother Lu’s body had been unloaded.

She hugged Lu Beichuan as if she was holding onto her life.

“You brat... you’re really going to worry your mother to an early grave!” Mother Lu cried for a long time. Next to her, the old butler was wiping his tears too. Once she had cried enough, she finally wiped her tears and beckoned Ye Zhen over. “Qingqing, come over ere.”

Ye Zhen was standing to the side and feeling extremely apprehensive.

Nowadays, Mother Lu’s affection towards her daughter-in-law had reached the point where she was like a treasured good luck charm. Only a short time after Miss Ye had married into their family, her son had woken up from his coma. After only a few days of daughter-in-law’s care, her son was able to stand up from his wheelchair.Mother Lu clearly remembered the words the fortune teller had previously said. Her daughter-in-law was blessed with good fortune!

“She’s not Ye Qing,” Lu Beichuan lightly explained, “Her name is Ye Zhen. She’s Ye Qing’s younger twin sister.”

“Younger twin sister? Ye Qing has a...” Before Mother Lu could finish speaking, Ye Qing had come downstairs. When her pleasantly surprised gaze went from Lu Beichuan to Ye Zhen’s figure, it changed to incredulous shock.

“Ye...Ye Zhen?”

When Lu Beichuan looked at Ye Qing, there was no goodwill on his face. “Didn’t you ask me to help you find your younger sister?”

Ye Qing’s expression stiffened. “I didn’t expect that you would find her so soon... Thank you.”

Lu Beichuan profoundly looked at Ye Zhen. “I’m only doing what I should.”

Ye Qing’s face was pale. Her eyes were on Ye Zhen as she pulled up the corners of her lips into a forced smile. Grasping Ye Zhen’s hand, she said, “Zhenzhen, let’s go upstairs and have a chat.”

Ye Zhen knew what Ye Qing wanted to discuss with her. Anyways, Ye Qing was simply worried to see that she had come back here.

Mother Lu was in a very good mood. She didn’t say anything extraneous, “Sure, have a good chat with your sister.”

Ye Qing kept her smile on her face as she pulled Ye Zhen upstairs into her room. After locking the door, she turned around and started criticizing Ye Zhen, “Ye Zhen, how could you come back?!”

Ye Zhen opened her mouth to refute, but Ye Qing was bursting with anger and didn’t give her a chance to respond. Ye Zhen’s appearance here had caused her to lose all rationality. The fear of losing everything spread through her mind.

“Are you regretting? Did you regret giving up the status of Mrs. Lu, so you came back here and want to switch? Ye Zhen, I’m warning you. Don’t you dare have those wayward thoughts. The position of Mrs. Lu belonged to me from the start! Don’t you dare covet something that doesn’t belong to you!”
