1553 Childish And Stubborn

The morning after the grand wedding, Lu Mansion buzzed with activity. Its spacious drawing room, usually tranquil, teemed with guests from both the Lu and Wang families. Amidst this lively scene, Lu Zhilan sought a quiet moment with her parents, the esteemed elders of the Lu clan.

As Jiang Yuyan descended the staircase, she found herself immediately encircled by Weiwei's eager presence.

"Aunt Yuyu, I searched everywhere for you after yesterday's wedding. Where had you disappeared to?" The young boy's eyes met hers, brimming with curiosity.

"I returned quite late," Jiang Yuyan responded, bending down to tousle his hair affectionately. "You were already fast asleep by then."

"Why were you late?" Weiwei pressed with childlike innocence.

"She was delayed because your uncle was attending to her," Lu Bao remarked casually, descending the staircase with her daughter cradled in her arms and husband by her side.

Jiang Yuyan glared at her as everyone was present in the drawing room and could hear everything. Unfazed, Lu Bao continued, seemingly oblivious to the tension. "Did I say anything wrong, Yuyan?"

"Go and have your breakfast," Jiang Yuyan's tone warning her, which made Lu Bao shut her mouth. She looked at her daughter in her arms, "I cannot offend her more or your father will turn widow and you will be a motherless child." Weiwei pondered for a moment before continuing, "Since we're leaving tomorrow, will you play with me today?"

Before Jiang Yuyan could answer, a crisp voice cut in, "She is not a child to play with you. Do I need to tell you again and again to find someone of your age?" It was Lu Lijun, wearing a sly grin.

Weiwei shot a defiant glance at Lu Lijun. "I don't like you, Uncle Lijun."

With a hint of amusement, Lu Lijun retorted, "I don't need to like me. Your aunt likes me more than enough."

Weiwei looked at her, "Do you like him, Aunt Yuyu? He is a bad uncle."

"Uncle for you, not for her," Lu Lijun commented again. He looked at Lu Lijun, "Then?"

Jiang Yuyan didn't know what to say or she should apologize on Lu Lijun's behalf but that was not proper as well. They were not husband and wife yet for her to do so. Weiwei's parents whisked him away, offering a collective sigh of relief to the room's occupants.

With a pointed look at her husband, Lu Bao remarked, "It's fortunate we have a daughter instead of a son. Lijun wouldn't threaten her like he did Weiwei."

"As long as she doesn't cling to Yuyan. You better take care of your own child," Lu Lijun spoke. Exasperated, Lu Bao shook her head, "You're impossible. How will you handle your own children?"

With unwavering conviction, Lu Lijun replied, "They'll receive the same treatment—not allowed to their mother more than necessary."

All eyes shifted to Jiang Yuyan, who shot Lu Lijun a withering glare before announcing, "I'm heading to the office." And with that, she ascended the staircase.

"You've clearly upset her," Lu Bao remarked, a hint of amusement in her voice.

Lu Lijun pocketed his phone and stood up decisively. "I'll accompany her to the office," he declared, trailing behind Jiang Yuyan.

"He is so stubborn and clingy," Lu Bao commented, "May god bless our Yuyan."

Everyone simply laughed and resumed their talk.

Lu Zhilan asked, "When can we expect Lu Lijun and Yuyan's wedding?"

Elder Lu replied, "It depends on them. We are not going to meddle in it. It was already tough for them to be together."

"I didn't see Lu Feng," She asked.

Lu Han, who was sitting there, answered for his brother, "He didn't return home last night."

"Brother Feng must be worried we will pester him as well, so he chose not to be here," Lu Bao commented, letting out soft chuckle.
