Chapter 13: Stay for lunch

Book:Reborn Cute Wife Published:2024-5-1

“Freeze! Today if you dare go out of this door, you have nothing to do with Lu Family from today on!”
This son really thought he’d grown up and Lu Zhencong would have no method to deal with him?
Seeing the father and son fell out because of her, Ye Guanguan was on edge. Lu Jinting was Lu Zhencong’s child out of wedlock. If he was really driven out by his father, then the family property would fall into Lu Mingye’s hand in the end.
It would be no difference from the last life!
“Mister, if uncle really can’t accept me, we might as well wait.”
She lowered her head as well as her voice. In the last life, it was because of her that Lu Jinting become the enemy of Father Lu and Old Mr. Lu. Finally the whole Lu’s Group didn’t recognize him as a member of Lu Family.
This time, she mustn’t allow this happen again.
Lu Jinting patted her hand and gave her a reassuring stare, shaking his head slowly.
“Father, you think I care about this?”
When he took her hand and was about to leave, Old Mr. Lu suddenly coughed, whose look was no better than Lu Zhencong’s.
“Even if you don’t want the property, how about this family?”
Saying that, Old Mr. Lu gave more coughs while his goatee kept shaking. Although Lu Jinting was a tough man, he became soft before friends, let alone facing his grandpa.
Feeling her eyes brim with tears, Ye Guanguan stood in front of Old Mister again and recalled the misunderstandings in the last life.
Somehow, Old Mr. Lu always detested her, this gentle granddaughter-in-law.
When she was dating with Lu Mingye, Old. Mr. Lu had always picked on her and told her straightforward not to waste time on Lu Mingye. But at that time, she was kept from knowing the truth and didn’t get to know Old Mr. Lu’s thoughts, thinking he had been giving her a hard time.
“Mister.”
She slightly pinched his palm and shook her head.
Quarreling was for a moment. However, these were the families that should be cherished for the rest of your life.
Maybe it was because she knew how rare the chance was to be reborn that she cherished everything so much. Most importantly, she was gonna take back everything she’d lost.
Lu Jinting seemed eased up a little. He was a soldier who had firm characteristics and would never regret for the words he’d uttered.
Therefore, he must turn the situation before it got worse.
“So, how about staying for a lunch?”
As soon as Lu Jinting compromised a little, Old Mr. Lu’s face didn’t seem to be that grave. Judged from his eyebrows, it could be seen that his love for this grandson was not less than others.
Lu Zhencong still remained the cold face. Hearing Old Mr. Lu’s cough, he just moved and went out of the building silently.
Old Mr. Lu also stood up. But before taking a step, he turned around and gave a side glance to Ye Guan.
“Jinting, come over. There is something…I want to talk to you.”
Hearing that, Lu Jinting firstly looked at Ye Guanguan. Seeing her conscientiously walked to the sofa and sat down with no fluctuations on her face, Lu Jinting then nodded.
“I’ll come soon.”
Walking toward her, he slightly rubbed his rough fingers against her fair face for a while.
“Wait for me.”
“OK.” There were two dimples at both her cheeks. Old Mr. Lu often gave advices to Lu Jinting in the last life but every time it would end up with a refutation from Lu Jinting. Thinking that, Ye Guanguan remembered to exhorted Lu Jinting, “If grandpa said something displeasant, don’t vent your anger. Just take it for the sake of me, ok?”
Today, she seemed extremely obedient and amenable. Feeling his heart touched, Lu Jinting lowered his head and pecked at her forehead before striding to the gate.
There were flowers here and there in Lu’s Villa. Now it was still at the beginning of autumn when the maple had been flaming red at both sides of winding paths.
Lu Jinting maintained his steady breathing rhythm and followed Old Mr. Lu’s step. Then he stopped with military gestures and came beside Old Mr. Lu who had been standing at the side of the road with one hand leaning on the crutch and the other behind his back.
“Grandpa.”
“Child,” Old Mr. Lu couldn’t help heaving a sigh, “It would be unsuitable for me to reproach you just now with an outsider around us. There only exists formality between you and her. It’s still soluble before you get her permanent-residence booklet transferred into our family. But why can’t you understand?”
Lu Jinting knitted his brows. Hearing those words, he really felt irreconciled. But when Ye Guanguan’s tender face appeared in his mind unconsciously, he restrained himself and told the following owrds.
“A gentleman never goes back on his words. What’s more I don’t regret.”
Seeing his attitude, Old Mr. Lu felt like having a heart-to-heart talk with him, “You can annul it. I’ll declare to the public that you’ve been to the troops. There are a bunch of reasons to refer to.”
“Grandpa, I know that you have a grudge against Guanguan for she had a relationship with Mingye before and you might be afraid that it would bring shame on me. But you know what kind of person I am. I have nothing to feel scared.”
Lu Jinting had never told anyone that he had been fond of Ye Guanguan for years.
But just now, he almost blurted it out. Luckily, he restrained himself timely. He knew his grandpa’s features that he would allow no weak spot in a soldier.
Not to mention that this Achilles’ Heel was a woman.
“Fine, fine!”
The more Old Mr. Lu thought, he got angrier. Thinking that girl billed and cooed with Lu Jinting just now, Old Mr. Lu considered she must be good at pillow-talk.
Such a scourge might bring troubles to his grandson who had a promising future.
“Younger generations have their own lives to live. Forget it. I’m too old already to meddle in your things. Go ahead.”
Old Mr. Lu swung his hand and left with his crutch. In spite of those words, he was pondering.
‘Girls like her mostly fix their eyes on property. But as long as she enters a wealthy family, there are loads of complications waiting for her. What’s more, Lu Family has served the military for generations. Over time, she will beat a retreat in the face of difficulties.’
After Lu Jinting sent off his grandpa, he returned to the building but didn’t see Ye Guanguan.
He briefly panicked. ‘Has father…?’
He had been estranged with Lu Zhencong since he was still young. He was clear about his style. As failing in persuading him, his father might conceive devious ideas.
The more he thought, the more anxious Lu Jinting got. He took out his phone and was about to call his subordinates to find her when a little head with raven hair stuck out upstairs.
Beaming from ear to ear, she held a thick book in her arms.
“Mister, you’re back!”
Lu Jinting strode upstairs and came in front of her in a minute, embracing her little body into his arms.
Against his broad chest, she could hear clearly his strong heart-beat.
Ye Guanguan slightly pushed him, “How’s it going? Why do you look so bad? Hasn’t grandpa reproached you? Don’t take it seriously…Hmm!”
Her voluble little mouth was locked by his thin lips. He stuck out his tongue and pried open her teeth. The two just kissed passionately with their tongues intertwining and their breath mixing. Lu Jinting didn’t stop until she lost her breath and had to respond on tiptoe.
Finally, he pecked at her reddish lips, “Thank you, wifey.”
