Sweet Wife in My Arms - Chapter 494

Chapter 494: Nothing But A Turtle

“Ah!” shrieked Qin Xiaoyue, rushing to cover her face. My face! My face!

Yan Huan stood up and leaned against Lu Yi.

“Shouldn’t she be more concerned about her son’s head?” she asked rather confusedly.

“Her son’s head isn’t as important to her as her face,” said Lu Yi flatly. Behind them, it was Ye Shuyun’s first time hearing the story, and Lu Jin wasn’t looking too happy either.

Furious, Ye Shuyun ran up and lifted Qin Xiaoyue by her collars, then threw her onto the ground. As she did so, she was scolding, “Get your ass and your trash son out of my house right now! What kind of disgusting son did you give birth to? Are there no more women on Earth? That must be why he has his filthy eyes on his sister-in-law, huh? No wonder he’s always hanging around us all the time. The two of you make me sick.” She carried and threw Qin Xiaoyue out of the door with great might. As for the wounded Lu Qin, she would have smashed a chair into him had he not been a junior and already took two bricks to the head.

“Damn it, I’m so mad right now!” complained Ye Shuyun as she dragged the dark-faced Lu Qin upstairs. “You go tell Old Master Lu what happened later. Don’t make it look like we are the ones in the wrong. When have we ever bullied the ‘poor widow and her son’? We have shown them every bit of kindness and tolerance, but that isn’t enough is it?”

They had let them stay in half their estate for this long, and had she once asked for rent? Qin Xiaoyue had stolen so many of her jewelry, even expensive ones, and has she ever exposed her? It would seem like their kindness had been taken for granted. Honestly, what ties did they have with Lu Qin and his mother? None at all! Lu Jin might have been adopted for all they know.

“I know,” said Lu Jin, equally bristled. He could let many things slide, but not this one. Yan Huan was the wife of his son, and what kind of man would tolerate another eyeing on his wife? If he could, he would be nothing but a turtle.

He wasn’t a turtle, and neither was his son going to be one.

Seeing that the storm was over, Lu Yi and Yan Huan went home. Ye Shuyun, still angry, told the matter to Madam Lei over the phone, who was equally enraged. A brother’s wife is not be messed around with, much less one’s own sister-in-law. Did he even think of Lu Yi as a brother?

Lu Jin sat there brooding, and the more he thought, the angrier he got. In the end, he decided to drive to the Old Master’s place.

Even though Old Master Lu had secluded himself, he was aware of everything that went on in the Lu Family. Qin Xiaoyue had made a huge scene and made a fool out of the Lu Family in front of many, and Old Master Lu was a man with a huge ego.

If it was within closed doors, he wouldn’t have batted an eye even if it turned into a battle royale, but now that they have embarrassed the Lu Family before others, he wasn’t about to let it slide.

Old Master Lu didn’t hesitate to fling another of his teacup, which went Pa! as it shattered into a hundred pieces. Only a few teacups of his kung fu-tea set remained, and this one could very much have been the last one. It hurt Old Master Lu inside, but he wouldn’t let it show.

“Tell me what happened. Right now. Do you have any idea how humiliating it is to have you clowns making a scene in public?” hissed Old Master Lu, patting at his face. Were they going to shame him to the extent that he couldn’t leave his house at this age?

“Dad, you take Lu Qin and his mother in. We can tolerate them no longer,” said Lu Jin sullenly. Even though he and Lu Jing weren’t brotherly, they were tied by blood and it was only right for Lu Jin to take care of his widow and son. However, that didn’t mean he had to put up with their acts. He was no pushover if they didn’t know that already.

Patience had its limit, and he feared that with Lu Yi’s disposition, he might really kill Lu Qin someday.

“What did they do?” asked Old Master Lu. Even though he was egoistic and domineering, he wasn’t a fool. The two families seemed to have been getting along decently for many years, and the most hostile thing between them was giving each other the cold shoulder. What caused him to evict them? Did they take him as non-existent?

Lu Jin didn’t even want to say it. It was too embarrassing.

“Spit it out already!” growled Old Master Lu. He reached for another teacup, but there weren’t any more for him to fling. The teapot was all that’s left, and he treasured it so much that even touching it made his heart ache.

Lu Jin’s face darkened.

“Lu Qin had been eyeing on his brother’s wife. Today he went overboard and molested her. You should know Lu Yi’s temper, Dad.”

“Since young, he had tolerated Lu Qin endlessly. He gave Lu Qin any toys he wanted, and any delicacies he asked for. He always covered up Lu Qin’s blunders, and never turned down a single request made by him. Had Lu Yi not helped him with his status, he wouldn’t even have been a third-rate actor.”

“And what does he do now? He starts eyeing his brother-in-law’s wife for the opportunities she could bring him. Let me ask you, Dad, are men from the Lu Family turtles?

Old Master Lu gave a long face. Indeed, there was nothing he could say in Lu Qin’s favor this time. Even though he didn’t like Yan Huan at all, with her being an actress, she was Lu Yi’s legal wife. Was Lu Qin out of his mind to mess with her?

“There’s no smoke without fire. If she was completely innocent, why would Lu Qin be pestering her? They are birds of the same feather,” said Old Master Lu stubbornly. He hated the woman Lu Yi married, and couldn’t even bring himself to speak of her name.

“Dad, don’t blame your grandson’s wrongdoings on others,” said Lu Jin.

“What? Am I wrong?” Old Master Lu pursed up his mouth. “If he married Xinyuan, none of this would have happened.”

“That I agree,” said Lu Jing. “Lu Qin would never be interested in a woman as ugly as sin. Only my silly son would once have marred such an ugly woman at your request, had he not met the one for him. Dad, you have two sons, but I only have one. I want a good-looking grandson, not an ugly one.”

Ouch.
