Gu Shiyan glanced deeply at him and said, “Fine.”
Gu Jinxi, who was at the side, became anxious.” Bro, how could you agree to let Second Sister-in-law go?”
“I have confidence in myself,” Gu Shiyan replied calmly, then turned his gaze to Lu Yinan, changing the subject,” But before my matter is over, please return to your original position. If you want to stay , there are many empty rooms on the third floor. You can choose whichever you like. If you need help, I will arrange it for you.”
Lu Yi Nan crossed his arms, leaning back in his chair, and looked up at Gu Shiyan.
Their gazes met in mid-air, and after a moment, Lu Yinan nodded, “Alright.” For Gu Shiyan to agree to his conditions just now was already a significant concession. Temporarily moving to the third floor was something he could accept.
“You take your time with breakfast. I have some matters to attend to at the company, so I’ll leave first.” After bidding farewell, Gu Shiyan left.
He left behind Gu Jinxi, who stared at Lu Yinan as if he were an enemy.
“Scheming villain! ”
Lu Yinan remained calm and reached out to pick up his bowl, continuing to eat.
“A friendly reminder, I’m the only family member that Miao Miao admitted and took the initiative to bring home.”
Her family?
This word was indeed a little subtle. It sounded as if their relationship was naturally much closer than theirs.
Gu Jinxi straightened his neck and refused to admit defeat.” So what? I’m still her husband’s family.”
Lu Yinan raised his index finger and shook it, “Yes, but they are still just engaged. Whether Miao Miao will choose to marry him in the future is uncertain. ”
“Hmph, I also have confidence in my second brother. Besides, my second sister-in-law has always liked me. She voluntarily helped me with my studies and gave me many gifts. She treats me much better than you.” Gu Jinxi raised his head and said arrogantly.
So, ask yourself, if you hadn’t taken the initiative to come, would you have the chance to live with her, sit here, and have breakfast with me?”
As the saying goes, ‘killing someone with words’, this was a direct question on Gu Jinxi’s sore spot.
When Lu Miao left the Gu family before, she indeed did not invite them, nor did she even tell them.
If it weren’t for him being unyielding and insisting on staying here, the truth probably would have been exactly as Lu Yi Nan said—Gu Jin Xi would have had no chance to sit here today.
But Lu Yinan was the one Lu Miao had willingly brought back.
Comparing these two situations, it seemed that he had indeed lost.
Gu Jinxi’s anger diminished instantly, but he still refused to admit defeat, “In any case, she will be my second sister-in-law in the future.”
“Then we’ll wait and see,” Lu Yinan raised an eyebrow, “Young brat, don’t change your mind and refuse to leave after losing.”
Gu Jinxi retorted angrily, “You’re the young brat! When my second brother marries my second sister-in-law, I’ll be the first to kick you out!”
After swearing, he left directly for school.
Lu Yinan leisurely finished his breakfast alone, tidied up his belongings, and then went to the third floor to inspect each room.
Each room looked new, with no signs of use on the furniture and bedding; it seemed that no one had lived in them.
The room in the middle seemed to have better lighting and was directly above Lu Miao’s room on the second floor.
Lu Yinan decisively went downstairs to pack his things and move to the third floor.
Fortunately, he didn’t bring many things with him this time, just one suitcase, so it was not troublesome to move.
After moving, he took out his phone and checked for nearby supermarkets.
He had just seen that the fridge was empty, and there was nothing inside.
As a good brother, he decided to show off his cooking skills and make a delicious meal for his little sister!
Just as he stepped out of the front door, a call came from his pocket.
He took out his phone and glanced at the unfamiliar number before answering it.
“We know that you are now living with Lu Miao.”
Hearing the familiar voice on the phone, Lu Yinan’s face darkened, and he was about to hang up.
The person on the other end seemed to have anticipated this and hurriedly said, “If you don’t come out to meet us, we’ll go directly to Lingyue Mansion to find her.”
Lu Yinan tightened his grip on the phone, determined not to let them harm Lu Miao any further. Suppressing his anger, he replied, “Where are you?
After ending the call, he stormed out and hailed a cab.
‘ftventy minutes later, the car stopped outside Zui Chun Xuan.
Lu Yinan went straight to Room 302.
Lu Qin and Qin Shuang were already waiting inside. When they saw him enter,
Qin Shuang smiled and gestured, “Anan, come sit down.”
Lu Yinan walked straight to the table and pulled out a chair, taking a seat.
Seeing the white bandages wrapped around his hand, Qin Shuang asked with concern, “How’s your hand? Have you seen a doctor?”
Lu Yinan replied coldly, “Thanks to you, this hand is useless now. The doctor said I can no longer participate in esports.”
Being his biological son, Qin Shuang became anxious, “Useless? How could it be so serious?”
She even playfully hit Lu Qin’s arm, “This is your son, how could you be so harsh?”
Previously, they had asked Lu Yinan to come back home because of Lu Siyu’s matter, hoping he would find a way to help Lu Siyu enter the entertainment industry again. However, Lu Yinan chose to protect Lu Miao, even if it meant cutting off ties with them. Lu Qin had become angry and demanded that Lu Yinan return the hand that he relied on for survival, and then…
Qin Shuang hadn’t expected the consequences to be so severe.
Furrowing his brows, Lu Qin said, “I know some experts and professors at several hospitals. I’ll have them take a look at your hand these days. Even if it can’t be fully recovered, it’s not a big deal. You can come back to the company and help out.”
“Yes, once we finish eating, I’ll have your father make a call to those experts. I’m sure they can help you recover,” Qin Shuang added anxiously.
“No need, I don’t want it,” Lu Yinan rejected without hesitation.
Lu Qin didn’t want to dwell on this matter any longer and picked up a cup of tea to take a sip.
Clearing his throat, he began, “Now that you are living with Lu Miao, you two…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Lu Yinan coldly interrupted him, “If you think I’m going to help you bring Lu Miao back to the Lu family, I advise you to give up now. I won’t assist you in contacting her, nor will I allow you to appear before her and hurt her again.”
Lu Qin was angered by Lu Yinan’s words and was about to scold him. But then he remembered the purpose of calling Lu Yinan today.
Suppressing his anger, he eased his tone, “What are you talking about? We are her biological parents; how could we possibly harm her?”
Lu Yinan sneered, “Didn’t you hurt her repeatedly when you had her replace Lu
Siyu to go to the Gu family?”
