Fall in Love with the Substitute - Chap 122
122 The Lu family’s family dinner [Ending with family recognition]
Time flies by like a flash, and we suddenly go from autumn to cold winter.
Lu Mingfeng visits Yunsheng Group Company from time to time, talks about projects and cooperation with it, takes the opportunity to visit his younger brother, and then persuades his younger brother to go home for a meal. Su Yichen clearly refused every time, but he couldn’t resist Lu Mingfeng’s kind invitation and gradually relaxed.
This day is New Year’s Day.
Lu Mingfeng wore a long windbreaker, drove to the door of Su Yichen’s villa, said hello to Butler Sun, and entered Su Yichen’s villa after receiving permission. He rarely came to Su Su’s home to invite guests, because Su Su was quite resistant, and because Pei Suyue was at Su Su’s home, he didn’t want to confront Pei Suyue.
In the huge villa and manor, the servants were cleaning the snow on the ground, and they were busy.
Lu Mingfeng glanced forward and strode forward. In the garden, a man in a servant uniform was kneeling on the ground looking for something. Inexplicably, he felt that the man looked familiar, so he walked over and looked at him condescendingly.
Lu Mingchen was a little stunned when the shiny expensive leather shoes came into view, and then he raised his head.
Lu Mingfeng couldn’t help but be stunned.
The man who was working in Susu’s house wearing a servant’s clothes was actually the adopted brother who was kicked out by the family. His brows were furrowed tightly, his eyes were cold and cold, and his tone was emotionless, “Why are you here?”
Lu Mingchen raised his head and looked at the person above him who was staring at him. His eyes suddenly froze. He lowered his head, looked at the ground and said, “Mr. Lu. I -”
“That’s all.” Lu Mingfeng interrupted him coldly, “Since you are here, it must be Su Su’s permission. Don’t have any other small thoughts, otherwise I will not let you go.”
“Okay, Mr. Lu.” Lu Mingchen lowered his head and replied, his posture humble and low.
Lu Mingfeng didn’t look at him again, walked past Lu Mingchen and walked into the living room. The housekeeper had already prepared tea and snacks in the living room, and Su Yichen was already sitting on the sofa waiting.
“Su Su.” Lu Ming opened the door and looked at Su Yichen who was elegantly sitting down to drink tea. His sinister eyes darkened slightly. He sat down and asked, “Why did you keep Lu Mingchen…?”
“Look, he’s quite pitiful. If you want to stay, just stay. Does Mr. Lu have any objections?” Su Yichen raised his eyes and asked.
“No, this is your house and you make the decision, but you must be careful when leaving that white-eyed wolf at home.” Lu Mingfeng laughed dumbly. He lowered his eyebrows, hiding his thoughts, and looked at the young man in front of him carefully. . He slowly and tentatively asked, “Today’s New Year’s Day, your parents want to invite you and Su Su to have dinner at home. We agreed last time that you would come to have dinner at home on New Year’s Day. I’m here to drive to pick you and Su up.” Early.”
Su Yichen put down the coffee and said calmly: “Okay.”
Lu Mingfeng was extremely pleasantly surprised, with a joyful smile on his deep facial features. He looked at Su Yichen with excitement, clenched his cup of coffee, and became more careful in his tone and attitude: “What do you and Susu like to eat? Mom asked me to ask you , we can prepare it in advance and cook what you like to eat.”
“Susu and I have nothing against each other. Just make some.” Su Yichen said indifferently.
“Okay…” Lu Mingfeng was extremely happy, “I’ll call my parents and tell them. They will be happy to know.”
“Yeah.” Su Yichen nodded.
The two brothers faced each other, looking at each other but speechless. The atmosphere became somewhat condensed for a moment.
Lu Mingfeng knew that Su Yichen had a cold temperament, but he didn’t expect that he could be so cold-tempered.
Perhaps only when facing Pei Suyue, Su Yichen would show his gentle side.
Su Yichen’s dark and indifferent eyes looked at Lu Mingchen’s back outside the foggy window. He took a sip of coffee and said, “Lu Mingchen has changed a lot. He has experienced a lot during this period. As his eldest brother, don’t you have any feelings for him?” No, and you don’t want to care about him anymore.”
Lu Mingfeng couldn’t help but look out the window with a sinister look in his eyes: “He brought it upon himself, and no one else is to blame for this end. He stole the Lu family’s secrets, and the Lu family was being generous by not sending him to prison. As long as he did not send him to prison. Thinking of what he did to you, I have a grudge and can no longer treat him as a younger brother. Whether he is dead or alive has nothing to do with the Lu family. ”
“Well, I have no right to interfere in the Lu family’s decision.” Su Yichen shrugged. He put down the coffee he had finished drinking, stood up and straightened his clothes. His handsome face was neither happy nor angry, and his tone was very calm, “Actually, you are not a good brother. No matter which brother you are, you have not fulfilled the responsibilities of an older brother.”
Lu Mingfeng clenched his fists and whispered: “Su Su——”
“Although Lu Mingchen made a big mistake, you were able to throw him out of the house without hesitation regardless of the brotherhood of more than 20 years, which shows the coldness and ruthlessness in your heart. He is stupid, he is vicious, and he has done all kinds of bad things, but The reason why he is like this is because of Mr. Lu’s pampering.”
“As the saying goes, it is the fault of the father if a son does not teach him. The eldest brother is like his father. Mr. Lu only spoiled him and spoiled him. Mr. Lu is also responsible for the mistakes he committed. You, my brother, have failed very much.”
Lu Mingfeng suddenly had mixed feelings in his heart when he heard Su Yichen’s words. He couldn’t refute. His dark eyes were heavy and red. He considered himself not a good brother. He knew that he was selfish and cared about it all the time. The only one left is his only biological brother who is connected by blood.
Born into a powerful family, he was blessed with a lot of dignity and privileges, and his family values were deeply ingrained. He knew that his own concepts were completely opposite and completely different from those of his younger brother who had been left alone for more than twenty years.
But Lu Mingfeng did not regret his decision.
“Su Su, you and I are blood brothers. I only know how to protect you and fulfill my responsibilities to you.” Lu Mingfeng stared at Su Yichen across from him with dark eyes.
Su Yichen said: “I don’t need anyone to protect me. I am an independent person. I have my own assets and family business. I can handle all the storms on my own.”
As the founder and largest shareholder of Yunsheng Group, with a net worth of US$18.4 billion, he has the capital to independently start a new family business. His success has nothing to do with the Lu family.
“I understand.” Lu Mingfeng stood up. His tall figure was two heads taller than Su Yichen. His eyes were gentle and he looked at Su Yichen with a smile. “Go and call Su Su to come down. I will drive you home.” Have a meal.”
“Okay.” Su Yichen looked at him steadily, then looked away again.
The previous conversation between the two ended up in vain.
The parlor door opens.
Lu Mingfeng and Su Yichen walked out one after the other and walked out of the villa with long legs. Pei Suyue soon got dressed and came down with gifts, and the owners of the villa left one after another.
The fluttering snowflakes fall, adding some color to this winter.
Lu Mingchen’s legs were numb from squatting, and he stood up staggeringly. He looked at the people’s leaving figures for a long time, then limped back and went out to buy necessities according to Butler Sun’s instructions.
Winter is extremely cold.
Lu Mingchen went to a relatively remote supermarket to buy groceries. On the way back by the subway, a tall man put his hand on Lu Mingchen’s shoulder and stabbed his neck with a sharp knife.
Even if you are impartial, moving forward even an inch can kill someone.
A bone-piercing chill suddenly swept through my body——
He looked at the person coming in front, it was Zhao Qigan who smiled so hard that his hair was trembling.
“Hi, young master, are you having a good time?”
Zhao Qigan asked.
“It’s okay.” Lu Mingchen lowered his head and said.
“Then you should go back with us.” Zhao Qigan said with a smile, “How do you tell Su Yichen that you know? Don’t let him find out. We don’t want to get into trouble with Su Yichen and the Lu family.”
After he finished speaking, he said disdainfully, “But for someone like you, Su Yichen’s willingness to take you in is already a kind act. He won’t make an enemy of our Zhao family just for a piece of trash. Right.”
“Yes.” Lu Mingchen nodded in agreement.
The lights in the subway station come on and the subway doors open.
Lu Mingchen followed Zhao Qingen away and returned to where he should go.
.
Lu family.
In the splendid hall, the housekeeper and the servants checked the dishes, the chef was busy cooking, Huo Nanyuan also cooked for his son, and Lu Boting prepared old wine and prepared to have a few drinks with his son and son-in-law. .
The entire Lu family was busy and lively. The master was happy, and the servants at work were also very happy.
Lu Mingfeng, wearing a suit, first took Su Yichen and Pei Suyue to the sofa, asked them to sit down, and asked the servants to cut fruit and pour tea for them.
Pei Suyue came shaking hands with Su Yichen.
When Lu Boting saw Su Yichen, his eyes turned red with excitement. He patted Su Yichen on the shoulder, then patted Pei Suyue, and said with a smile: “It’s rare for you to come. I have prepared a lot of dishes at home. I don’t know if you like it or not.” eat……”
Su Yichen was still a little uncomfortable facing Lu Boting’s care and concern, so he responded politely. Pei Suyue gave the gifts she brought to Lu Boting, trying to leave a good impression in front of Su Su’s biological father.
Lu Boting did have a very good impression of his son-in-law.
The few people sitting on the sofa chatted for a while, and after eating a few watermelons, cantaloupe and cherries, they were called to eat again.
At the huge dining table of the Lu family, the whole family gathered together and ate lively.
This was the first meal Su Yichen brought Pei Suyue to the Lu family.
Although Su Yichen did not explicitly say that he wanted to recognize his relatives, he was willing to go home for dinner. This was of great significance to Lu Boting and Huo Nanyuan, and it was a very grand day.
The family didn’t talk about work, only the family’s shortcomings.
Huo Nanyuan couldn’t help but smile with relief every time she looked at Pei Suyue and Su Yichen.
After dinner, Lu Mingfeng took Su Yichen to visit the Lu family’s manor.
“The last time I came here was at Lu Mingchen’s birthday party.” Su Yichen walked to the window and looked down at the scenery outside the window with some emotion.
Lu Mingfeng said: “It’s also your birthday, Su Su.”
Su Yichen remained silent.
After Huo Nanyuan finished his work, he came over to watch Su Yichen’s childhood photos with Su Yichen.
When she was a child, Su Yichen looked pretty, delicate and cute.
Pei Su Yuerui’s eyes were very bright, and she followed Huo Nanyuan in admiring Su Yichen’s face when he was a child.
A wife-slave and a child-controller hit it off immediately, and they had a great time studying Su Yichen’s childhood photos together.
Su Yichen looked at the two of them, quite speechless: “Isn’t it just a photo of his childhood…”
“That photo means a lot to them.” Lu Mingfeng stared deeply at Su Yichen.
Su Yichen was slightly startled and hummed softly.
“Come home and visit often when you have time in the future, okay?” Lu Mingfeng stretched out his palm and patted Su Yichen’s shoulder, and whispered, “Mom and dad did nothing wrong. They miss you very much. As long as you are willing to come back, Just seeing them is very satisfying.”
Su Yichen glanced at Lu Mingfeng, then looked at Huo Nanyuan and Pei Suyue who were studying his childhood photos in the distance, and at Lu Boting who was standing at the door, looking at him with deep fatherly eyes.
These banquets today are all for him.
Su Yichen said softly: “Okay. I’ll come over and take a look when I’m not busy.”
Lu Mingfeng looked at his younger brother with a smile on his face. He couldn’t help but choke up inexplicably. He couldn’t help but feel relieved and extremely happy. His younger brother was finally willing to come home. Even if it was just to eat and stay overnight, it would be good.
Su Yichen and Pei Suyue stayed at the Lu family overnight.
Live in the master bedroom, complete with room pajamas and all amenities.
The two of them were sitting on the soft bed. Pei Suyue held Su Yichen and pointed at the photos of Su Yichen eating his hands when he was a child.
“Honey, you were so cute when you were little~”
Su Yichen’s face turned dark and he snatched the photo away, “Stop studying it. What’s so good about photos of your childhood?”
Pei Suyue came over and hugged Su Yichen tightly, and said with a smile: “Because I have all the photos of my wife, except the one when she was a child. I want to establish a good relationship with my wife’s parents and get them to agree to let me take the photos. ”
Su Yichen’s face turned dark and he poked Pei Suyue on the shoulder: “I haven’t admitted it yet.”
Pei Suyue kissed Su Yichen’s forehead and said, “Honey, I know your hesitation. But you are already willing to come to the Lu family to have dinner with them, which proves that you can’t worry about them.”
Su Yichen looked at Pei Suyue.
“I hope more people will love you, Mom Su, Dad Luo, Mom Huo, Dad Lu. In this way, my wife will have two fathers, two mothers, and one brother. How wonderful.”
“But, I know my wife has some knots in her heart. It doesn’t matter. No matter what you decide, I will be by your side to support you and support you.”
Pei Suyue hugged Su Yichen’s waist tightly.
“What if the decision I make is wrong?” Su Yichen curled his lips, “I am a human being, not a god, and sometimes I make wrong decisions.”
Pei Suyuerui said with a smile in her phoenix eyes: “My wife cannot be wrong. Even if you are wrong, as long as you have a clear conscience and will not regret it, I will support my wife unconditionally.”
“Okay.” Su Yichen hugged Pei Suyue’s neck and smiled: “It’s great to have you.”
Pei Suyue was extremely proud, and the dog’s tail was wagging happily again.
“That’s right, I’m Su Yichen’s husband!”
The two spent the night nibbling on each other.
The next day, it snowed heavily.
Su Yichen and Pei Suyue put on thick windbreakers, packed their things and prepared to leave. Lu Boting and Huo Nanyuan had to send them to the door no matter what, and Huo Nanyuan prepared some food for them, while Lu Boting prepared wine. .
Lu Mingfeng stood behind his parents, staring at Su Yichen from a distance.
“Su Su, go back and have a good time with Susu. If you want, you can come back for dinner and a visit. The door of the Lu family will always be open for you.” Huo Nanyuan tidied Su Yichen’s scarf and said thoughtfully.
“Yes, Su Su, we don’t ask for anything, we just hope that you can have us in your heart. We will be satisfied if you can come home and visit often.” Lu Boting stood side by side with his wife, the care and kindness in his eyes was very strong.
“Okay.” Su Yichen responded softly.
Lu Boting and Huo Nanyuan sent Su Yichen and Pei Suyue away.
Lu Mingfeng followed step by step.
Watching Su Yichen’s back getting further and further away, Su Yichen suddenly turned around, ran straight towards Huo Nanyuan and embraced her, saying in a hoarse voice, “Mom.”
When Huo Nanyuan heard the mother’s voice, she was shocked, her pupils widened, she covered her mouth, and was about to cry. “I’m here, I’m here.”
Father and son Lu Boting and Lu Mingfeng were both shocked at the same time.
“I’ll come back often. Don’t cry. It’s not good for your skin.” Su Yichen said softly.
“Okay, okay.” Huo Nanyuan was so excited that she didn’t know what to say.
Su Yichen looked at Lu Boting again, walked over and hugged him, calling softly: “Dad.”
“I’m here.” Lu Boting’s eyes were red, and he patted Su Yichen’s back gently like an old father, trying not to cry.
“Drink less. It’s not good for your health.” Su Yichen ordered.
“I know, listen to Chen Chen…” Lu Boting’s eyes turned red, and he said with a smile, “Can I call you Chen Chen?”
“Okay.” Su Yichen nodded lightly.
The tall and handsome Lu Ming stood at the back, frozen in place, a little stiff and nervous, not knowing what to do.
Later, Susu came over to hug him and call him brother. What should he do? Ah, at least there must be something like an older brother!
Lu Mingfeng pursed his lips and waited for Su Yichen to come over, his palms sweating from nervousness.
result……
one second,
two seconds,
Three seconds.
Su Yichen greeted his parents, shook hands with Pei Suyue and left.
left……
left……
leave……
Lu Mingfeng felt inexplicably wronged and uncomfortable. He clenched his fists, his pupils were red, and he wanted to curse secretly. Why did you call him mom and dad, but not brother? !
Lu Boting and Huo Nanyuan came over and patted Lu Mingfeng’s shoulders heavily.
Lu Mingfeng stood at the door of his house, looking at the backs of his brother and his sister-in-law leaving in the car, feeling heartbroken and on the verge of crying.
If he wants his brother to forgive him and recognize him as his brother, the road is long and long…
