Reincarnation: Multi-skilled Goddess Is So Beautiful!

Chapter 779: Child, Aren’t You Too Overbearing

??

Eldest Master Lu’s expression stiffened but he did not say anything.

However, Third Master Lu spoke. “Second Brother is right. The previous time I fought with the pirates, it was also Zi Yi who saved me.”

Speaking of this, he released Patriarch Lu and said with a serious expression, “Father, if you really continue to refuse to accept Zi Yi and make our Second Brother’s family feel so disappointed, I’m afraid that I can only stand on his side.”

“Ah… ahh…”

When Patriarch Lu heard his words, he felt blood rushing to his forehead and was short of breath. Immediately afterwards, he lost consciousness.

“Father!”

…

The main residence fell into chaos but the other Lu Family’s villa was in a happy mood.

The housekeeper here and the housekeeper at Lu Jingye’s villa were all invited to the dinner table tonight and everyone had dinner together.

The other bodyguards and helpers also had a few tables set up for them and everyone enjoyed themselves.

...

Mrs. Lu raised the glass of red wine and said to the two housekeepers, “The both of you have worked hard. I wish you a happy New Year.”

Both the housekeepers were moved by her actions and similarly, they returned Mrs. Lu’s blessings.

Subsequently, everyone started to eat and drink merrily.

Zi Yi saw how everyone was drinking and was a little tempted. Lu Jingye scooped a bowl of Duck Bamboo Soup and said, “Didn’t you want to drink this earlier? The duck was raised by feeding it only the best grains and it is at least two years old. You will definitely like this.”

He then picked up a shrimp dumpling and placed it in her bowl.

Zi Yi took a sip of the soup and found it particularly sour and delicious. However, she still raised a very unreasonable request. “In that case, you shouldn’t drink either. If you drink, I’ll feel uncomfortable when smelling it on you.”

Mrs. Lu laughed at their interaction and she purposely said, “Child, aren’t you too overbearing?”

Zi Yi happily smiled at her.

Mrs. Lu said, “Alright then, I shall not drink either and I’ll drink soup with you. Will you feel better this way?”

Lu Yunxiao also said, “I won’t drink too.”

When the two housekeepers saw that the owners of the villa weren’t drinking, for sure they would not drink either.

And so, Mrs. Lu said, “If you want to drink, just drink. Don’t care about us.”

Housekeeper Zhang said, “Madam, we rarely drink normally, and having a sip or two is enough.”

Housekeeper Wang agreed. “That’s right. We’ll have the soup too.”

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, “You guys can drink in private later. There’s no need for you to worry about the villa tonight. Yiyi has arranged for some robots to keep watch and nothing will happen.”

The two housekeepers were even more moved.

Everyone continued to eat.

Halfway through the meal, they heard the sounds of a car driving in and stopping outside.

Mrs. Lu said in surprise, “Don’t tell me that Jianlin came back so early?”

As soon as she said that, she saw Lu Jianlin walking over in large strides.

“Second Master.” The two housekeepers hastily stood up and greeted him.

Lu Jianlin nodded in their direction. “You guys continue to eat.”

He then headed upstairs.

Mrs. Lu saw that his expression seemed even more serious than usual and she seemed to have guessed something. She called out to him, “Jianlin, come over and eat with us. Don’t go upstairs.”

Zi Yi and the rest had also guessed that something was up and all of them were looking at him.

Lu Jianlin paused for a second. He originally wanted to head to the study room to have some time alone. However, he suddenly doesn’t feel like doing so anymore.

He turned around and sat down at the dining table. Housekeeper Wang hastily went to fetch a set of cutlery for him.

Lu Jianlin wanted to have something to drink tonight and he glanced at the bottles of alcohol placed at the side.

Mrs. Lu lightly patted his hand and said, “You drunkard. I’ll drink with you after dinner. Let’s not make Yiyi feel tempted to drink.”

Lu Jianlin nodded and ate together with everyone.

After the relaxed and enjoyable dinner ended, it was already 5 p.m.

Zi Yi and the rest were going out to watch the fireworks. Mrs. Lu knew that Lu Jianlin felt upset and so, she said to the rest of them, “You guys can go ahead. Jianlin and I will stay at home. It’s so cold outside and I can’t stand staying outside for too long.”

Zi Yi wanted to say something but Lu Jingye quickly stopped her. Lu Jingye then said to his parents, “We will return at 10.”

Mrs. Lu nodded and reminded him. “There will be a crowd outside, so you had better protect Yiyi well.”

“Mhm.”

Before they left, Zi Yi and Lu Jingye returned to their bedroom to grab their overcoats.

Zi Yi looked at Lu Jingye grabbing a thick overcoat for her and said, “Father is feeling unhappy today. Is it alright for us to go out?”

“It’s fine. Mother can placate him.” Lu Jingye looked at what she was wearing and found it to be suitable and so, he grabbed her a fresh mask before they left.

When they came downstairs, Father Lu and Mother Lu had already returned to their rooms while Lu Yunxiao was standing at the door waiting for them.

The three of them went out and as soon as they got in the car, Zi Yi received Dou Xiangling’s phone call.

The younger members of the Dou Family were also going to watch the fireworks tonight.

After they made arrangements on where to meet, the car drove out.

The fireworks were originally planned to set off at midnight. However, it was different this year as the fireworks would be set off twice.

“I heard that the first round of fireworks has been arranged by a rich man for his wife and it will set off at whatever time they arrive here.”

“Isn’t that so romantic? Who is that rich man? He must love his wife very much.”

“Pft… Perhaps it might not be his wife but a mistress he keeps outside. In this world, rich people have the same habits. They would always be willing to spend money for the woman they keep outside.”

“Who cares which woman he’s spending it on?! It’s good that we can enjoy the benefits without paying for anything.”

“It’s also good to have a few more rich people like this.”

Before 6 p.m. there were many people rushing toward Bin Jiang Road.

With such a huge crowd, safety became one of the biggest problems.

Not long after Zi Yi’s car drove out, Lu Yunxiao suddenly received a call from the Security Bureau and they requested his help tonight.

Lu Yunxiao had no choice but to alight halfway.

When he walked into the headquarters of the capital’s control room, he just so happened to meet the person in charge.

“Little Lu, you’re here.”

The person in charge’s surname was Wu and as soon as he saw Lu Yunxiao walking in, he strode over and patted him on the shoulder. The two of them then walked side by side and went inside.

“I’ll give you a brief explanation of the current situation. As there are two firework shows tonight, 50% of the people in the city have all gathered at Bin Jiang Road. There’s no problem with the traffic and order, but we are worried that there would be some lawless individuals making use of this opportunity to cause trouble. In particular, there have been several murder cases in recent days. We are really short of manpower and we need your assistance.”

Speaking of this, the two of them arrived outside a large door.

Commander Wu pushed open the door. Inside the room was a group of admin officials and on the wall in front of them was a large screen. The screen was reflecting a map of the various traffic areas in the capital.

They walked to the operating panel in front of the large screen and Commander Wu pointed to a certain area. “Help us keep watch on this area today. This area is where incidents have happened the most in recent days.”

He then patted Lu Yunxiao on the shoulder. “Little Lu, I’ll have to trouble you for tonight.”

Lu Yunxiao nodded his head.

Commander Wu informed him of a few other things and after that, Lu Yunxiao took his leave.

At the same time, some hackers started to take action, as they were making use of the opportunity of the holiday to launch an attack.
