Chapter 38 - Young Madam

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

How could Lu Han know that she was here? Guan Tong was confused whether Lu Han was there to look for Lin Fei? Guan Tong began to recall if she had ever interacted with Lu Han before marriage.

“Brother Han, you’re here looking for me?” Lin Fei was shameless. She immediately took her seat. 

Lin Fei was acting timid. Those who did not know better would have thought that something had happened between her and Lu Han last night, and it was not the fight between her and Qiao Ran as well. Lu Han raised his eyebrows. He could tell that Lin Fei caked her makeup on, but it could not cover up the scars on her face. It seemed that the fight between the two must’ve been rough.

“I’m here to pick up my wife and bring her home.” Lu Han’s words shocked everyone. What did he mean by picking up his wife and bringing her home?

“Brother Han came all this way to pick me up?” At this moment, Lin Fei was already floating in the air, thinking that he was talking about her.

“Young Master, did Fei’er cause you any trouble? Please tell me, and I’ll scold her for you.” Zhang Lin said as she glared at Guan Tong.

“She’s the Young Madam of the Lu family. No one shall lay a hand on her.” Lu Han sternly brushed off Zhang Lin. Everyone was stunned, even Guan Tong. She was surprised that Lu Han was protecting her.

“Young Master, what are you talking about?” Lin Fei’s face was filled with disbelief. Why would Lu Han protect this ugly girl?

“Did you not hear what I said?” Lu Han could not imagine how Guan Tong had been bullied and mistreated in the past. If it were not because Lin Fei was related to Guan Tong by blood, he would have bought the Lin family business long ago.

But to buy the Lin family business? Lu Han suddenly felt that it was a good idea to do so. When the time came, it would be a good idea to let Guan Tong be the leader of Lin’s family business. If she were not willing, he would leave it to someone else to manage. Lin Tian didn’t know that his family business would soon be taken over by someone else.

“Listen… Listen carefully.” Zhang Lin said as she pulled Lin Fei to the side.

“What’s going on?” Lin Fei whispered.

“How would I know?” Ever since Lu Han came in, he didn’t even look at her, let alone care about her. Instead, he was protecting Guan Tong. Lin Fei wondered if Lu Han knew her real identity. If that were the case, she would not have acted nonchalantly. In an instant, Lin Fei’s mind was filled with many thoughts.

“Young Master, you and Tongtong…” Zhang Lin tried probing Lu Han.

“Oh, she didn’t tell you about what happened yesterday?” How could she not tell them anything? Lin Fei had told Zhang Lin everything. But Lu Han wanted to make things difficult for the Lin family. Lin Fei stuttered. She couldn’t tell Lu Han that she was fighting with Qiao Ran last night. That would ruin Lu Han’s impression of her.

“Brother Han… I didn’t do it on purpose. It was Qiao Ran who started attacking me!” Lu Han raised his eyebrows to Lin Fei’s excuse. He didn’t care who made the first move.

“You’ve caused me trouble. Someone from the Qiao family came.” Lu Han’s tone was cold. 

The Qiao family was from Beijing. Even they were not someone the Lin family could afford to offend because the illegitimate daughter of the Qiao family was also the daughter-in-law of the Lu family.

“Which Qiao family?” Lin Fei did not know any Qiao family, so her tone was filled with arrogance.

“Hush now!” Zhang Lin scolded Lin Fei to stop talking. 

Not everyone knew that Liu Juan was the illegitimate daughter of the Qiao family. It was typical for the younger generation not to know, but it was apparent in the eyes of Zhang Lin and many older women of the Capital. It was a secret that many people from the older generation were aware of. Therefore, even if the Qiao family behaved normally like any other family. No one would dare to cross them due to Liu Juan’s position in the Lu family.

“Mother…” Lin Fei wanted to push further, but she was frightened by Zhang Lin’s glance.

“Then maybe we let Lin Fei go apologize to Miss Qiao?” Zhang Lin lowered her voice and asked Lu Han. She wanted Guan Tong to apologize to Qiao Ran as Lin Fei.

“You can contact the Qiao family regarding this yourself. My wife doesn’t need to apologize to anyone, and I’m only here to take my wife home.” Lu Han was adamant in his purpose. He even blamed himself for coming to Guan Tong’s rescue this late.

Lin Tian was an experienced and tactful person. He could see that the way Lu Han looked at Lin Fei was not warm at all. On the contrary, the way he looked at Guan Tong was filled with tenderness. Hence, he understood that regardless of whether Lu Han knew the truth, Lin Fei had no chance with Lu Han.

“Young Master, we will talk to the Qiao family about this. It’s just a stupid row between the girls.” Lu Han sneered. Lin Tian wanted to settle this matter with just one sentence. It wouldn’t be that easy. 

He brought Lin Fei back just for this scene. He wanted to kill two birds with one stone. He tried to make the Qiao and Lin families suffer. Only then would he have a chance to deal with other matters.

“The Lu family has nothing to do with this matter.” Lu Han said. Lin Tian heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Lu Han’s words. It seemed that the Lu family would not support the Qiao family.

“Then, what about Second Madam…” Lin Tian was worried about Liu Juan. Lu Han was grabbing Guan Tong in his arms at that moment. Lin Tian was talking too much.

Lin Tian was frightened by the coldness in Lu Han’s eyes. He knew that he had asked too many questions. Lu Han held Guan Tong in his arms, walked out, and got into the car without more words. Guan Tong did not understand what Lu Han meant by this.

“Why are you here today?” Guan Tong couldn’t help but ask.

“If I didn’t come, the Young Madam of the Lu family would have been bullied to death.” Lu Han scoffed. Guan Tong was startled when she heard Lu Han’s words. Perhaps he knew something about her?

“What do you mean?” Guan Tong nervously asked Lu Han..
