Chapter 283: Is My Future Daughter-In-Law Someone He Can Meet As and When He Likes!?
When Zi Yi woke up and just as she walked to the staircase, she saw a familiar figure sitting in the living room.
She was a little stunned to see the sight.
Just then, Mrs. Lu turned around and saw her.
“Little Zi, you’re awake!”
Zi Yi looked at Mrs. Lu, who smiled warmly at her, in a daze.
Mrs. Lu saw her reaction and motioned for her to come over. “Here, come down quickly. You missed lunchtime and I prepared some soup for you instead. Come over and drink some first before having a meal.”
Zi Yi finally recovered her senses.
She came downstairs and asked, “Auntie Lu, why have you come?”
While she said that, she made her way over and sat in the seat opposite Mrs. Lu.
Mrs. Lu poured a bowl of soup from the insulated flask and passed it to her. After Zi Yi took the bowl, she said, “I’ve heard of what happened last night. I was worried about you so I asked Ah Jing for your address… Are you angry that I came uninvited?”
“No.”
She took a sip and said, “It’s delicious.”
Mrs. Lu was delighted. “There are many trolls on the net and you don’t have to worry about them. Most of the remarks are based on nothing. This only proves that you’re very outstanding and so, people were jealous of you and so they attacked you.”
Zi Yi thought for a moment and said seriously, “Auntie Lu, other than the fact that I stole my cousin’s boyfriend, the rest is true. I was indeed a notorious privileged brat.”
Mrs. Lu did not expect such frankness from Zi Yi and her fondness of her increased.
“The Zi Yi I know is the one I’m seeing right now. In my eyes, you are good in all aspects. A fault that is confessed is a fault that’s half redressed. You were only playful in the past and have not done anything that harmed others. Who hasn’t had a puberty phase? What right do those people have to attack you?”
Zi Yi stiffened for a moment and revealed a sweet smile.
Mrs. Lu felt her heart melting. She raised her hand and stroked Zi Yi’s hand and said gently, “Take your time drinking. Do bring me to view that car of yours that can fly.”
Compared to how Zi Yi was like in the past, Mrs. Lu was more interested in her flying racing car.
“If it wasn’t for the fact that I can’t handle riding in your car, I would have asked you to take me for a ride.”
Zi Yi thought for a moment and said, “If Auntie wishes to experience it, I can reduce the speed of my car.”
Mrs. Lu smiled in response. “Okay!”
While Zi Yi was drinking the soup, the housekeeper had delivered her delayed lunch.
After finishing her meal, Zi Yi brought Mrs. Lu to take a tour around her courtyard.
Mrs. Lu had fallen in love with this place at first sight.
This courtyard feels really nice. Also, these flowers are blooming nicely.
While they sat in the pavilion, Mrs. Lu said, “It’s so beautiful here. It must be nice spending time sitting here enjoying tea, the scenery, and reading books.”
“If Auntie likes it, you’re welcome to visit often.”
Mrs. Lu liked to hear that.
The both of them sat for a while more in the pavilion and Mrs. Lu went to check out Zi Yi’s racing car. All of a sudden, she received a phone call.
The other party seemed to have said something and Mrs. Lu replied in displeasure, “Don’t think of putting your intentions on her!”
Having said that, she hung up the phone.
Zi Yi looked at Mrs. Lu and asked, “Auntie, what’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing.”
Mrs. Lu’s expression returned to normal and she smiled and asked, “Little Zi, do you like listening to music?”
Zi Yi nodded. “I’m alright with it.”
Mrs. Lu happily held her hand. “There’s an upcoming concert in two days’ time. Why don’t you go with me? I would be bored going on my own.”
As Zi Yi did not have much planned for the following days, she agreed to it.
Mrs. Lu stayed at Zi Yi’s villa until the evening. Before she left, she still reminded her out of concern. “Don’t stay up too late. It’s bad for your health.”
Zi Yi nodded and said, “Ok.”
When Mrs. Lu returned home, the housekeeper informed her. “Madam, the Eldest Madam, and Eldest Young Master paid you a visit today.”
“Why were they here?” The call she received today, while she was at Zi Yi’s place was from Lu Jingye’s cousin, Lu Zhiheng.
He had somehow gotten news that she had a close relationship with Zi Yi and wanted to meet her through her recommendation.
“Hmph! Is my future daughter-in-law someone he can see as and when he likes?”
When the housekeeper heard what she said, he was shocked.
He did not expect Mrs. Lu to regard Lu Jingye’s rumored girlfriend as her daughter-in-law.
After careful consideration, the housekeeper said, “Eldest Madam and Young Master Heng did not mention the reason for their visit, but… they asked about your whereabouts and what time you would return.”
Obviously, the housekeeper would say that he had no idea.
“They remained here and waited until 5 p.m before they left.”
Mrs. Lu acknowledged what he said. She did not wish to pay them any attention and went up to her room.
However, she had underestimated Lu Zhiheng’s determination.
The next morning, Lu Zhiheng came knocking on her door while Mrs. Lu was having breakfast alone.
With the respect of a junior greeting a senior, he said, “Good morning, Second Aunt.”
Mrs. Lu glanced at him and gently asked, “Zhiheng, have you had breakfast?”
“I ate before coming here.”
Mrs. Lu put down the spoon and wiped her mouth with a napkin. “Your Second Uncle and Jingye are not at home. I’m also planning to make a trip to the temple. I’ll be leaving after breakfast.”
Lu Zhiheng nodded and smiled. “If you find it boring, I’ll get Yuelan to accompany you.”
Yang Yuelan was his wife.
Mrs. Lu waved her hand.” Your child is only six months old, how could he leave his mother? I’m going there for a stroll and I’ll be back tomorrow.”
Lu Zhiheng nodded and changed the topic. “I heard that Second Aunt and Elder Dou’s granddaughter, Zi Yi, are acquainted?”
“Why do you ask?” Mrs. Lu glanced at him and did not deny or admit to knowing her.
Lu Zhiheng smiled and said, “Second Aunt, I’m sure you know that the Lu Group’s automobile company is under my management. Mrs. Zi’s car is capable of flying in the air with no external support and the technology used must be very advanced. I wish to meet with her and talk about cooperating.”
He then glanced at Mrs. Lu’s expression and continued to speak, “Moreover, Second Aunt and Miss Zi are acquainted, and she also has a close relationship with Second Brother. Even if the Lu Group does not obtain the technology, other large companies would definitely have their eyes set on it. Why don’t we take advantage of this and have a discussion with her in advance?”
Mrs. Lu looked at Lu Zhiheng who made it seem like he was thinking for the benefit of the Lu Family. She pursed her lips and thought for a moment before she said, “I’m unable to help you on this.”
“Why? Could it be that Second Aunt doesn’t hope for the Lu Family to flourish?”
Mrs. Lu chuckled, but her tone contained slight displeasure. “Zhiheng, what are you saying? Why wouldn’t I hope the best for the Lu Family? However, I have already mentioned this to Little Zi when you called me yesterday. She has no plans to reveal the technology and you can’t possibly have me use my status to pressure her, right?”
Only then did Lu Zhiheng realize he had acted too hastily. He apologized to Mrs. Lu and thought of looking for Zi Yi on his own.
He did not believe that she would not be tempted by the conditions he offered.
“Then… Can Second Aunt pass me Miss Zi’s phone number?”
“I’ll have to ask her for her permission on this.”
Just then, the housekeeper came to inform her. “Madam, the car has been prepared.”
Mrs. Lu stood up and walked to Lu Zhiheng’s side and reminded him, out of kindness. “Zhiheng, Little Zi dislikes being forced. So you’d better not do anything superfluous or don’t blame me for not giving you a reminder.”
Having said that, she headed outside the door.
Lu Zhiheng looked at Mrs. Lu leaving and sneered deep down inside.
Ha! Just say it outright that you don’t wish to see me surpassing your son!
Do you think I have no other methods if you don’t give me her number?
Not long after Mrs. Lu left, she received a call from Elder Lu.
