Sweet Wife in My Arms - Chapter 975

Chapter 975: Believe In Father

The two children could already think reasonably and had become more sensible. They could perceive the meaning behind those scathing words. After all, they were the children of the Lu family, who usually matured early. Thus, they could catch on to Qin Xiaoyue speaking ill of their mother, claiming that she had gone missing and abandoned them.

Just when they became disheartened and were nearly reduced to tears, a tiny palm reached out to grasp both of their small, chubby hands. They looked down to find that it was their younger sister’s. Although she was still very young, she had delicate and angelic features that resembled their mother’s countenance. She lifted up her tiny head and peered at Qin Xiaoyue with wide, unblinking eyes. Then, the two boys stood in front of their younger sister to shield her.

“Mommy will come back,” Xiao Guang said as he clenched his tiny fists tightly. He had faith that his mother would surely return. Father said that mom is just lost. When father finds a way, mom will, without a doubt, return.

“Right, mom will definitely come back.” Xiao Qi stubbornly lifted his head. The two children bore a great resemblance to Lu Yi, their expressions carried unwavering resolve.

Lu Yi sauntered over, each hand resting atop each of his sons’ heads.

He emotionlessly glanced at the family from the second household.

“Second Aunt, my household no longer welcomes you. I’ll have to politely ask all of you to take your leave.”

“On what grounds?”

Qin Xiaoyue sneered, clearly displeased. This was Old Master Lu’s property, their Lu Qin also had the Lu surname and they were clearly part of the family as well. There were no justifications as to why only the eldest son’s household could stay, while the second son’s family needed to leave.

“Why not?” Old Master Lu answered with an indifferent tone, “The Classical Garden is a property that I will be leaving for my great-grandsons and great-granddaughter. If Lu Qin can give me a granddaughter, he would naturally get his share. Otherwise, you have no right to cause a fuss here.”

Those words greatly hurt Qin Xiaoyue’s pride. Qin Xiaoyue had always found the prospect of her own son being unable to bear children ludicrous. She used to constantly ridicule Ye Shuyun because of her inability to have grandchildren in this life. How could it be possible when her son had passed? With no grandchildren, the Lu family line would end.

At present, the one being snubbed was her. That person not only had one grandchild, she had three, and one of them was a girl. It was a once-in-a-lifetime miracle for a female to be born to the Lu family and thus Old Master Lu loved that child dearly. It now seemed as though everything within the Classical Garden would undoubtedly be inherited by the eldest son, while the second son’s family would be left with absolutely nothing.

This shouldn’t be possible. How is this possible? All of them are equally from the Lu family. Why does the eldest son get everything but the second son receives nothing? The Classical Garden is a priceless location with great Feng Shui in the mountains, it will surely fetch a sky-high price. There are also plans to build a holiday villa in the near future. I’ve heard that the value of the Classical Garden will only continue to rise.

An indescribable emotion flashed within Lu Qin’s eyes, as his lips arched upward into a cold smile. As for Sun Yuhan, she did not hold an interest in the Classical Garden. She would let the Ye family decide how much she would own. In her point of view, there was nothing in the world more profitable than the Ye family’s private airport. Despite that, her gaze still fell upon the little girl held in Old Master Lu’s arms.

The little girl really resembled Yan Huan. When she was not smiling, she seemed stiff like Lu Yi. When she smiled, she possessed a charming pair of dimples. Everyone claimed that the child took after Yan Huan, but the child still bore the most resemblance to a certain person.

However, she would take that secret to the grave with her and never mention it in this lifetime. Anyway, she believed that no one would find out about the secret. However, the one with the greatest unforeseen misfortune would not be her, but this child.

Xunxun suddenly glanced up. Pursing her tiny rosebud lips, she gave Sun Yuhan a brief look. However, she quickly looked away, ignoring her and remaining silent still.

Qin Xiaoyue not only could not receive any reassurance, but she had also provoked Old Master Lu’s ire. The family of three immediately took their leave without even dining together.

Lu Yi crouched down to his sons’ eye level and reached out to them.

“Xiao Qi, Xiao Guang, come to father.”

The two children obediently made their way to their father’s side. Their expressions seemed pitiful, yet they maintained a brave front and did not shed a tear. Only their younger sister could cry in the family. Father had said that they were boys, hence they must protect their younger sister and should not weep.

Lu Yi held his sons in his embrace, letting Old Master Lu tend to Xunxun. He brought his two children into the bedroom, so he could have a heart-to-heart with the little fellows.

“Mommy…” Xiao Qi struggled to get out of his father’s arms. Then, he dashed toward the bedside and grabbed the photo frame with his mother’s photo. Their mother and sister looked incredibly alike. Even though neither of them could recall any memories about her, they at least knew what she looked like.

“Yes. That is your mother.” Lu Yi gently stroked his eldest son’s head. “Do you believe in your father?” he asked his two children, communicating with them effortlessly.

Both children stood before Lu Yi and vigorously nodded.

Lu Yi walked over, seating himself on the ground and letting both children sit in his lap.

“Trust me. Mommy will definitely come back because she loves all of you the most. How could she bear to leave us all behind? Both of you have to eat well and grow up healthily. Only then, both of you will be able to see mom sooner. You’re both going to be men, so no crying. You still have a sister to protect, right?”

The two children would always be reminded of their father’s words in their hearts. They needed to eat well. Only when they had grown up, their mother would return. Furthermore, only then they could protect their crybaby younger sister, so that she would not be bullied by others.

They aspired to grow up and be just like Big Brother Leilei, as no one in the kindergarten dared to bully him.

Big Brother Leilei is Lei Qingyi’s son, Little Lei. Naturally, no one would dare to find trouble with him. He had only just started kindergarten, but he was at least a head taller than the other children in his class. Besides, he was also strong and burly, like a calf, unlike his father when he was at his age. When his father was younger, he was incredibly slender. However, Little Lei was not the same. He had inherited his father’s terrifying height and his mother’s hot temper. The kindergarten class was filled with weak little children. He was built like an elementary school student, so no one would dare to find trouble with him. All the other children feared him greatly and he soon became the kindergarten’s little overlord. Every time he came over to Lu Yi’s home, he would brag about his heroic performance to the three siblings. He would tell them about who he had beaten up, who cried from a beating, and whose toy he snatched. Therefore, Little Lei had left an imposing impression on the three siblings. To them, besides their father, Big Brother Lei was the most impressive person that they knew.
