Chapter 879 - Biased
Chapter 879: Biased
The door opened with a creak. It was not Lu Qin who opened the door, but a woman in pajamas. The woman had probably just taken a shower as her body was moist with steam. Even her face was flushed.
“It’s you?” Su Muran’s pupils shrank.
“Why are you here?” She had a bad feeling in her heart. It was her. Why, why was she here? She was her. Lu Qin was here too. No.
This was impossible. This was absolutely impossible. This was not what she wanted.
She pushed Sun Yuhan away abruptly and stumbled inside.
Sun Yuhan continued to towel her hair. She closed the door lightly with her red lips curved.
Of course, she had no fear of being caught in bed. Maybe it was a good thing as she would like to see whether Lu Qin would choose her, the eldest young lady of the Ye family, or this half-dead woman from the Su family.
How could an obsolete Su family compete with an influential Ye family?
How could a half-dead Su Muran compete with a lively Sun Yuhan?
How could an obsolete actress who was about to disappear from the public eye compete with a future best actress who was currently in the limelight?
If Lu Qin was smart enough, he would know how to choose. Anything that Su Muran could give Lu Qin, Sun Yuhan could too. She could even give him things that Su Muran could not.
At this moment, Su Muran had rushed into the room. Lu Qin was lying on the bed, seemingly asleep. A man and a woman being alone together in such a situation. No matter how stupid and naive she was, she could definitely guess what had happened.
He had betrayed her. He had really betrayed her.
She gritted her teeth, thinking of her disease. It was incurable. Initially, there was still hope. But now, Zhu Meina had ran away and was nowhere to be found. The discomfort she was feeling right now was brought about by a huge sense of anger, pushing her to the verge of death.
She looked around, and her gaze landed on a chair nearby.
She walked toward the chair and picked it up. It was difficult for her to even make such a simple movement. Even so, she clenched her teeth and raised the chair, smashing it over Lu Qin’s head.
Yan Huan was holding a bowl of soup while drinking it mouthful by mouthful. The soup tasted awful before, but now it had become the tastiest thing to her. After all, she did not have a choice, as her everyday meals were limited. The soup was the only thing that she could drink abundantly.
She had not even finished a bowl of soup when somebody came to the house. The sound echoed through the atmosphere even before the person arrived.
“Dad, Dad, are you here? Dad, please help… Lu Qin had been beaten up. Dad, you have to defend Lu Qin…”
Yan Huan put the bowl down and stared calmly at Qin Xiaoyue, who was crying loudly without any tears.
“Dad, you must stand up for Lu Qin.”
Qin Xiaoyue was still wailing, and it turned Yan Huan’s mood sour. She picked up the bowl again and continued to drink her soup. At this moment, the nannies in the house came out quickly upon hearing Qin Xiaoyue’s voice. They stood in front of Yan Huan, blocking her. Especially the nanny that Old Master Lu had hired was very anxious, afraid that Qin Xiaoyue might do something bad. Qin Xiaoyue was not someone easy to deal with, and here she was, crying and howling. They were afraid that she would do something to Yan Huan.
Yan Huan was now the treasure of the Lu family, as she held the fourth generation of the Lu family in her belly. The Old Master had even vacated his place for her to take good care of her body.
If Qin Xiaoyue had scared her now and caused the loss of the fourth generation of the Lu family, that would be awful. The nanny immediately called the Lu family to send someone over in order to prevent anything bad from happening.
Yan Huan had actually been scared for a moment by Qin Xiaoyue’s terrifying voice. Other than that, she was fine, after all, it was not a big scare. She picked up her spoon and drank the soup slowly.
She was very clear about the temper of her previous mother-in-law.
Greedy for money, narrow-minded, and of course, she was a coward too. She would not be brave enough to actually do anything. So, she continued with her meal, unconcerned.
“Why are you here?” Qin Xiaoyue screamed when she saw Yan Huan. She thought it was the Old Master Lu, so she had knelt to the ground with a thump, wailing. When she realized that it was Yan Huan and not the Old Master Lu, she immediately got up from the ground and looked at Yan Huan as though she was looking at her enemy.
“Second aunt, didn’t you know that I stay here?”
Yan Huan took a casual sip of her soup. She raised her eyes slightly, and said with a faint smile on her face, “If you wish to find grandpa, you may go to my parents’ place. That’s right, the place where you previously stayed as well.”
“But,” She put the spoon down and placed a finger on her face, raising her chin gently with a faint smile dancing on the corner of her lips. Of course, this was a kind reminder.
“Second aunt, when you see grandpa, please don’t be so loud. Grandpa’s ears are fine. He really doesn’t need you howling in such a loud tone.” Qin Xiaoyue’s face reddened. She almost wanted to grab the chair beside her and smack it across Yan Huan’s smug face. Was she trying to show off? No matter how hard she tried, she was not allowed to stay in the Old Master’s Classical Garden. He was truly biased, giving it to the elder brother instead of her Lu Qin.
Soon, the Old Master Lu and Ye Shuyun arrived, with angry looks on their faces. They were afraid that Yan Huan was in an unfavorable situation. Now that Yan Huan’s health was not in good condition, or rather, it was extremely bad, as the months went on, it was getting harder to protect the fetus. Hence, nothing must happen to her. Her baby had yet to reach seven months. It was hard enough to keep one person alive, let alone two.
Ye Shuyun was so scared that she was breaking out in a cold sweat, frightened that Qin Xiaoyue had shocked her grandchildren. As for Old Master Lu, he had a strong urge to choke Qin Xiaoyue to death. Who let her come over? Who allowed her to come over? He would actually strangle her to death if she had really shocked his grandchildren.
However, when they arrived, they heaved a sigh of relief as they saw Yan Huan leisurely eating her meal and Qin Xiaoyue sitting on the couch with a grimace on her face.
When she saw Old Master Lu, she immediately got up, pulled her face down and twitched her lips. Her eyes reddened again and she started wailing.
“Dad, you must save me, you must save Lu Qin.”
Yan Huan continued to eat slowly. The slower she ate, the slower she became hungry. So nowadays she took more than an hour to eat her rice and drink her soup. However, Qin Xiaoyue’s voice was really making her lose her appetite. That sudden howl had really made her unable to eat.
Shut up. At this moment, even Old Master Lu felt that he was going to feel sick, let alone Yan Huan.
