CHAPTER 157: CHAPTER 157 NOT A SINGLE GOOD THING IN THE LU FAMILY

"Miss Su, may I ask where their biological parents are?"

The old man finally asked.

Su Xingwan paused and looked at Wen Yue.

Wen Yue quickly smiled and said, "Grandpa, this is their family matter, why are you asking about this?"

The old man, upon hearing this, felt even more that they were hiding some secret from him.

Su Xingwan then spoke up, "Old man, I always thought their parents were gone, but recently I discovered that their mother is still in this world."

"Oh, really?" The old man became interested and turned his gaze to his granddaughter, Wen Yue.

"So have you found her now?"

Su Xingwan smiled and said, "Yes, almost definitely found."

The three little ones looked up at their aunt.

A look of surprise flashed in their eyes.

Their mother.

"Auntie, who is our mom? Also, isn’t our dad around?"

The latter sentence made Wen Yue and the old man’s hearts skip a beat.

Su Xingwan quickly explained, "You misunderstood, what kids mean by ’around’ is different from what we understand."

Little Su Luo said, "Dad is in that stone house, he just can’t come out, but we can visit him often!"

Upon hearing this, Wen Yue’s eyes turned red.

The old man glanced at her: "Did you remember something, my dear granddaughter?"

Wen Yue choked and uttered a "Mm."

Upon hearing this, the old man fell silent.

Su Xingwan looked at the white-haired old man and suddenly felt a trace of solitude from him.

The old man sighed, "Since you’ve remembered something, just forget them. You’re still young, and the days ahead are long."

"...Mm." Wen Yue said, still choked with emotion.

The three little ones sensed the atmosphere wasn’t right, so nobody spoke, silently picking at their rice bowls.

However.

The food at Aunt Wen Yue’s house is really delicious!

Unconsciously, the old man and Wen Yue were drawn to the sound of the three children eating.

The previously dull atmosphere gradually dissipated.

The old man rarely showed a hint of a smile.

"These three children are very cute, Miss Su, you should come here more often to keep Wen Yue company."

Su Xingwan was somewhat surprised and only said, "Okay."

After dinner, they all sat down and ate a lot of fruit and snacks.

"Auntie, our little tummies are so full! The food at Aunt Wen Yue’s house is too delicious!" The two little ones tugged at their aunt’s sleeve.

Su Xingwan, upon hearing this, laughed.

"How delicious?"

"It’s this delicious!"

Little Su Luo gestured with his hands, making a wide gesture.

Then he said pitifully, "We want to call Uncle now, Auntie."

Su Xingwan paused slightly.

"Your uncle will come to pick you up soon, can you call him later?"

"Who is your uncle?" The old man suddenly spoke.

The two little ones looked at the white-haired old man, tilting their heads, "Uncle is our uncle, who else could he be?"

So the old man turned his gaze to Su Xingwan.

Su Xingwan realized at once that this matter could no longer be concealed.

"Just as you’ve guessed, their uncle is the Lu Family’s CEO, Lu Yun."

Upon hearing this, the old man snorted.

"There’s not a good person in the Lu Family!"

Su Xingwan: "..."

The three little ones: ?

Why did this old grandpa suddenly become very fierce!

The three little ones hid timidly in their aunt’s embrace.

Wen Yue: "Grandpa, you can’t just condemn everyone in the Lu Family with one stroke."

The old man snorted again.

Then he said, "Wen Yue, you are not allowed to have any more dealings with the Lu Family in the future. Just thinking about the Lu Family angers me now!"

Su Xingwan quietly dared not speak.

Suddenly, the old man’s gaze turned to her.

His eyes were complex, "You don’t have any dealings with the Lu Family, do you?"

Su Xingwan paused.

She didn’t know how to respond to this.

The old man’s eyes narrowed.

"Miss Su, you are still young. The Lu Family is like a big vat of dye, anyone who goes in will come out a layer lighter, especially that Lu Anguo — putting profits above all, even using his own son, a complete beast."

Su Xingwan and Wen Yue dared not make a sound.

The three little ones didn’t dare make a sound either.

The old man is so fierce!

The old man continued, "Anyway, the Lu Family’s genes are bad, they’re all ingrates."

Little Su Yan couldn’t help but defend his uncle.

"My uncle is great, he’s not an ingrate!"

Upon saying this, Wen Yue and the old man’s gazes turned to him,

The old man’s eyes narrowed, looking at this little boy, who seemed carved from the same mold as Lu Zhichen.

The two little ones realized slowly, was the old man scolding their uncle?

They bravely stood up.

"Old grandpa, you can’t scold our uncle! He’s as good as Auntie, our dearest, dearest family!"

"Right!" Little Su Luo stood with his hands on his hips, his face flushed with anger.

The old man looked at them, "Seems like you interact with that Lu Yun boy quite a bit."

The three little ones were confused.

Su Xingwan remained silent.

The old man was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly said, "He’s okay."

"A bit better than his brother."

Su Xingwan: "?"

Wen Yue: "?"

The old man looked at Su Xingwan, "How close have you gotten with him?"

Although the old man didn’t say who "him" was, Su Xingwan knew he meant Lu Yun.

Instinctively, she was a bit afraid to meet the old man’s eyes.

If there’s anyone she’s grown up fearing, it’s that Mr. Lu and this seemingly kindly but actually stern old man.

Strange, could she really be part of the Wen Family?

Every time she met the old man’s gaze, she felt like he could see through everything.

She always felt that this old man knew everything.

A few simple exchanges.

He could guess almost entirely accurately.

The old man saw her lower her eyes, a realization dawning on him, and he snorted.

"The only thing those from the Lu Family have going for them is their looks, you girls are just easily fooled."

Upon hearing this, Su Xingwan felt a bit awkward and her face flushed.

Wen Yue was the same, her face blushing red.

Grandpa was hinting at the two of them.

The three little ones were completely confused.

The old man sat down heavily, leaning on his cane, "I don’t know what sin our Wen Family girls committed, jumping one after another into the Lu Family’s pit."

The atmosphere inside the house was somewhat quiet.

The two little ones looked at their aunt, then at the old man.

They were about to speak.

The ringtone of Su Xingwan’s phone rang.

She looked and saw it was Mr. Lu calling.

Her heart skipped a beat.

Then she saw that Mr. Lu had messaged her over ten minutes ago.

The old man glanced unexpectedly.

"It’s him calling, isn’t it?"

"Mm."

Then Su Xingwan swiped the green button and put the phone to her ear.

"...Hello."

There was a slight pause on the other end of the line.

For the first time, he heard her answer the phone in a cautious voice.

He paused, "Did something happen over there?"

"Nothing happened here, have you arrived?"

"Yes, almost there. Are you ready?"

"Okay."
