Chen Meiyu and the others came unceremoniously. When they left, they were dragged out by the guards. They insulted He Youran wantonly, and their sharp voices could still be heard when they were far away.
âHa, youâve become a Phoenix on a branch. You donât even acknowledge your own parents anymore,â Chen Man said coldly as she crossed her arms.
âWhen a person has money, you look at her heart. The Lu family married such an unfaithful and unfilial woman. In the future, they canât help but let people gossip about them,â Zhao Jin echoed.
âBut I heard that He Youranâs parents didnât treat her well.â
After listening to He Youranâs song, people didnât have such a bad impression of her anymore. So, they put in a good word for He Youran.
âIf He Youran wasnât wrong, why didnât her parents like her?â Chen Man asked.
âI heard that her father was a second wife. Isnât that what the saying goes? With a stepmother, you have a stepfatherâ¦â
âBut no matter how bad they were to her, her parents came to find her personally. They spoke nicely to her. She canât kick them out right, right?â
Everyone spoke one after another.
Seeing that the situation wasnât right, Old Madam Lu hurriedly got someone to dismiss the crowd. Although some people still wanted to hear the gossip, the order to leave had already been given, so they couldnât shamelessly stay and not leave.
After all, there was no wall that couldnât let the wind out. There were some things that they could still find out if they wanted to.
So, by the time He Youran and Lu Qingzhuo returned, the courtyard was almost completely cleared.
He Youran walked over to old madam Lu and said apologetically,
âGrandma, Iâm sorry. It was such a nice party, but I ruined itâ¦â
âSilly child, what are you talking about?â Old Madam Lu felt sorry for her, but it was too late. âQingzhuo told me about your parents. They went too far. If it were anyone else, they wouldnât forgive them without a grudge.â
Old Madam Lu patted her hand and comforted her:
âYouran, donât worry. With Qingzhuo around, they wonât dare to do anything. Besidesâ¦â
Old Madam Luâs gaze turned sharp, and her kind face carried the dignity of a superior.
âA puny Rong city family wonât be able to shake our Lu family!â
âOkay.â Lu Qingzhuo also comforted He Youran. âYouran, donât worry. Iâll definitely protect you.â
âAlright, itâs been a busy day. You guys are tired. Letâs go back.â
Old Madam Lu began to chase them away.
Compared to the He family in Rong City, in her heart, it was more important for her grandson and granddaughter-in-law to nurture their relationship as soon as possible.
Today, she was too busy and, there were a lot of things to do. Lu Qingzhuo and He Youran didnât eat much either. She had already gotten someone to arrange for nourishing soups. When they returned home, they should be able to eat it.
Madam Luâs heart bloomed with joy as she thought about He Youran and Lu Qingzhuo.
âBy the way, Shouxinâs room is ready. Heâs going to sleep by himself from today onwards.â
Yes, yes. Although it was a little unfair to her adorable great-grandson, it was better for him to leave his motherâs embrace early!
He Youran and Lu Qingzhuo couldnât argue with Madam Lu, so they could only return to the Lu residence first.
Just as they reached the entrance of the hotel and were about to take a ride, Lu Qingzhuoâs phone rang.
It was butler Chen from the Lu familyâs ancestral residence.
Lu Qingzhuo picked up the call. Just as he was about to ask what was wrong, Butler Chenâs anxious voice came through the receiver
âEldest young master! Not good, the young master isâ¦â
Lu Qingzhuoâs expression changed. He quickly carried old madam Lu and went elsewhere to pick up the call.
âUncle Chen, what happened to Qingliu? !â
âYoung masterâs condition isnât very good. He even stopped breathing just now! Elder Young Master, please come back quickly ââ
