Sweet Wife in My Arms - Chapter 429
Chapter 429: The Family Members Have Arrived
Yan Huan’s weibo feed was filled with wishes and blessings, giving off a very positive vibe.
[I Am A Little Chinese Cabbage]: “Congratulations, my Huan for finally leaving the single life! Please flex more on us single people…”
[It Is Really Me The Big Chinese Cabbage]: “My female idol has finally gotten married, when will they have children? My idol is so damn pretty and oh yes, her husband is really handsome too so the children they have will definitely be pretty.”
[A Big Chinese Cabbage]: “Congratulations! Everyone below me please maintain the formation.”
[Innocent Auntie]: “That’s my son and my daughter-in-law.”
[It is Really Me The Big Chinese Cabbage]: “Hey auntie, didn’t you say that my female idol was your daughter? How can it be that she’s the daughter-in-law then? The guy is obviously the son-in-law.”
[Fake Innocence Auntie]: “That’s her son and daughter-in-law, I can vouch for it.”
These two innocent and fake innocent aunties had very much disappeared under the swell of wishes that came in. To the fans, their existence was really too minimal.
Yan Huan’s name had earlier been besmirched but was then cleared, and cleared very cleanly at that. As such, the huge difference in reviews had lifted her popularity up to an almost unbelievable stage.
At this point in time, if she were to start filming, then her popularity would be boosted even higher. However, since she was still studying, she did not take on any roles. She would sometimes accept advertising and magazine shoots of the sort, but she would not do anything more than that.
“Miss Yuan, it’s done.”
The housemaid came out from the kitchen with an already packed lunch box.
“Thanks auntie, so sorry for troubling you.” Yan Huan looked up from the computer and stood up, ready to send the food to Lu Yi. She sighed because if Lu Yi was busy, he would not be at home and would not even have the time to eat every day. When she used to act, she would just call in a delivery for him in the afternoon. According to Lu Yi when she asked him, he said he would eat it but sometimes when the workload increased and he got busy, he would only remember to eat it after it became cold. Now that she was basically free, she could take out some time from her schedule to send some food to Lu Yi more frequently.
Yup, a 24 hour little wife she would be.
The food was cooked by the housemaid at home because she would not be able to cook in time after fussing over her assignments. In any event, it was best to let the housemaid cook it, especially since the housemaid she hired was good at cooking and made really delicious food. Moreover, the housemaid was a very clean lady.
After putting on her spectacles, she picked up the lunch box and left Little Bean to the care of the housemaid. As Little Bean needed a bath, the housemaid walked over to Little Bean’s bed once Yan Huan had left and saw that the fat cat that was sleeping soundly was so fat that it was comparable to a pig.
“Sigh, how did the cat become like this?”
The housemaid carried Little Bean who did not struggle but merely raised its eyes for a glance before continuing to sleep. However, it was fine this way since it would be too lazy to even move while being bathed, unlike when it was smaller Yi Ling had to tie up its paws to make sure it would not scratch anyone. Nowadays, even if Little Bean was immersed in water, it would still be too lazy to move.
As soon as Yan Huan drove up to the entrance of the procuratorate, the guard by the entrance had already walked over to request for identification documents. The procuratorate at this point in time was off limits to normal citizens.
Yan Huan took out a pass and gave it to the guard. After glancing at it for a moment, the guard then passed it back to Yan Huan and gave her a military salute.
Yan Huan really felt that soldiers were just too cute now.
Driving into the procuratorate, she realized that this was actually her first time here. Once upon a time, to her, this place was merely a mysterious place that she could never come close to.
And it had seemed like the sentinels posted after every designated distance were too high up to reach.
Yet in this life, maybe because of Lu Yi, or maybe because she had been a female soldier for a year, she had begun to change her mind about this place and felt a sense of closeness and liking when she thought of it.
She drove her car very slowly and parked once she found a spot. The inside of the procuratorate was rather large and there were more than enough parking spots. Of course, there were no random civilians inside and everyone wore uniforms of the same color. The men had straight postures and the women looked smart and capable.
She got down the car and straightened the spectacles on her face. Her right hand was still in a cast and was not very nimble.
However, she did not know where to find Lu Yi considering that this was such a large place.
Moreover, she stood out like an eyesore here because she was an outsider and outsiders were not supposed to be allowed in here during working hours. Yet, she was here and her face made her even more noticeable.
By now, someone had already recognized Yan Huan and upon noticing that she was holding a lunch box in her hand, he knew that she was here to look for Lu Yi.
He walked toward Yan Huan and saluted her.
“Hello, comrade.”
Yan Huan had also straightened her body, ready to salute him back but she realized she was no longer a female soldier and was also not in military uniform, so she could not salute him back.
“Hello.” She put down her raised hand and hugged the lunch box in her arms, making the person in front of her laugh and ask, “Are you Yan Huan?”
“Yes, I am.” Yan Huan actually felt helpless about this since her face was known to the public and she could not deny it even if she tried. Furthermore, she was not a thief and this was the procuratorate where these people were not those crazy fans of hers.
“Please don’t misunderstand.” The young man stood straight and the words he uttered were also very serious, “I’m Mr Lu’s secretary, are you looking for Mr Lu?”
“Mr Lu?” Yan Huan blinked.
“Lu Yi?”
“Yes.” She hugged the lunch box in her arms again with her injured right arm gracefully.
“I’m here to send him some food, I heard he’s been busy.”
“He is indeed quite busy.” The young man turned around. “Please follow me, Miss Huan, Mr Lu has always been very hardworking at work. It’s good now that he has someone to look after him. There used to be someone who ordered food for him last time but because he was too busy, he would only eat it after it was cold.”
“Oh right,” said the man, “I’m Wu Bo, Mr Lu’s personal secretary, but you can just call me by my name.”
The man introduced himself once again.
He also felt somewhat embarrassed.
“Miss Yan, could I get your autograph?”
“Okay,” Yan Huan agreed heartily. However, she was not a celebrity when she was here, she was a family member. Yes, she would keep a low profile.
Knock knock…
Wu Bo knocked on the door. “Mr Lu, there is someone here to see you.”
“Okay, bring him in.”
Lu Yi’s voice came from inside the room and it sounded as if he was fine and full of energy. Yet the truth was, he had actually been here since early in the morning and had been busy with work until now, never once stopping to rest.
