"Watch your attitude." Xu Fengyu's voice was indifferent.
Lu Anran gritted her teeth, but since she had a favor to ask of him, she could only go along with it. Lowering her posture and voice, she said, "Aren't you my brother? As a brother, I naturally have to protect my sister, don't you think so? "
"You want me to protect you?"
"Yes."
Xu Fengyu looked at the girl in front of him who was trying to please him. For some reason, his heartbeat suddenly went out of control. He looked away and walked forward.
Lu Anran followed him. "Brother, don't keep quiet. Are you going to protect me or not?"
She called him 'brother' so smoothly.
Xu Fengyu did not stop walking. "It depends on your performance."
"…" Lu Anran secretly clenched her fists. Performance my ass, she said with a smile, "I will definitely perform well."
Xu Fengyu suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked at Lu Anran. "Your flattering look now …"
"What's wrong?"
"You did well."
Lu Anran could not maintain the fake smile on her face. She wanted to beat up Xu Fengyu, this bastard.
"You want to beat me up, don't you?"
Lu Anran's expression froze for a moment. She hurriedly denied it. "No, how is that possible? I am still counting on you to protect me."
Xu Fengyu did not expose her. Lu Anran and Tong Qiao had one thing in common, and that was their straightforward personalities. Even if they did not say anything, they would show it on their faces. Even if she tried to hide it and her face could not be seen, he could see clues from her eyes.
"Seeing that you did well tonight, I will keep the incident on the highway a secret for the time being."
"Why is it only temporary? Can't you not talk about it? "
"I can't."
"Why?"
"I have to hold onto your weakness so that you won't bully me in the future."
Lu Anran gritted her teeth, but her face was full of flattery. "You are my brother. Why would I bully you?"
"It's hard to tell what's in a person's heart."
"…" Lu Anran really wanted to slap this man to death!
The next day, Xu Fengyu moved into the Lu Residence. The room was still the same one he used to stay in, but Tong Qiao had already renovated the room. Everything in the room had changed. It was no longer a blue wallpaper, but a slightly more mature light gray wallpaper. It was also no longer a 1.5-meter child's bed, but a two-meter soft leather bed.
At night, Lu Meihua, Fu Zhengyao, Fu Zhilei, and her husband came over for dinner. The whole family chatted until late at night before leaving one after another. Although Xu Fengyu did not say much, Lu Anran could tell that his presence had made Lu Jinshen and Tong Qiao smile a lot more.
Lu Anran really could not understand Tong Qiao. Xu Fengyu was Lu Jinshen's son. Lu Jinshen should be happy, but why was Tong Qiao so happy?
That was the son of her love rival. Although her love rival had passed away, she used to be her love rival. How could she be so nice to her love rival's son?
Moreover, she could tell that Tong Qiao was not being perfunctory. She was genuinely nice to her son.
She really could not understand her mother's thinking.
In the next few days, Xu Fengyu was very busy. He left early and returned late. It was hard to even see him.
On the day of the Spring Festival, Lu Anran came out of her room in her pajamas. She leaned on the railing and shouted downstairs, "Grandma Lin, where did you put my black bra?"
Auntie Lin came out of the kitchen. "Isn't it in the drawer where you keep your underwear?"
"No." Lu Anran tucked the loose strands of hair that had fallen on her face behind her ears, revealing her long and fair neck and delicate and small ears.
"Then go to my room and take a look at the sofa. I remember that I put it away yesterday. I might have forgotten to put it back in your room."
"Oh." Lu Anran responded and turned to walk towards Auntie Lin's room. She had only taken two steps when she saw Xu Fengyu leaning against the door in a beige casual outfit. He was already handsome, and wearing white made him look … a little stunning.
He leaned lazily against the door frame with his hands in his trouser pockets. He looked at her. He had been standing there for a while.
"Why are you here?"
Xu Fengyu looked away and glanced into the room. "This is my room. Is there a problem with me being here?"
"No, I mean, why are you at home today?" Lu Anran walked towards Xu Fengyu.
"It's the Spring Festival today. Tong Qiao said she wanted to celebrate the Reunion Festival."
Lu Anran crossed her arms and leaned against the door frame opposite Xu Fengyu. She didn't look like a girl at all. "Why are you so obedient to my mom?"
Xu Fengyu looked at the clean little face in front of him. He thought about the actresses with exquisite makeup he usually saw and felt that such a natural face was especially pleasing to the eye.
But when his eyes accidentally swept over her collarbone, the tips of his ears suddenly turned red.
She was wearing fluffy cotton pajamas with the top two buttons unbuttoned. When she crossed her arms, the material of the pajamas squeezed together, forming a vacuum in the middle. The view in front of her chest was faint, and her fair cleavage was faintly discernible.
He remembered that she had asked Auntie Lin where her bra was, so she wasn't wearing anything there?
Xu Fengyu felt like his eyes were being pricked by something. He quickly looked away and turned to walk into the room.
Lu Anran frowned. "I'm talking to you … Hey … Why did you call my mom Tong Qiao and not Auntie … Hey, are you deaf?"
Xu Fengyu stopped in his tracks and walked back with a cold face. "Why do you care? Also, watch your attitude. "
"What's wrong with my attitude?"
"The incident on the highway …"
Lu Anran immediately put on a fake smile. "You can call me whatever you want. As long as you're happy."
The corners of Xu Fengyu's mouth curved slightly, and then he slammed the door shut.
Fortunately, Lu Anran stepped back quickly. Otherwise, she would have hit her nose.
Lu Anran raised her fist and punched the door a few times. Then she gritted her teeth and muttered, "Don't let me catch you, or I'll kill you."
In the evening, the whole family sat around the dining room to make dumplings. Even a man like Lu Jinshen joined in.
This was a rule set by Tong Qiao. The dumplings had to be made by the whole family on the reunion night. Those who didn't do anything were not allowed to eat. It wasn't that they had to eat, but it was just for the reunion.
Xu Fengyu and Lu Jinshen sat together and felt uncomfortable. After making a few dumplings, he stood up. "You guys do it. I'll go to the kitchen."
Tong Qiao was puzzled. "Why are you going to the kitchen?"
Xu Fengyu said, "Get ready. I'm going to cook two dishes later."
Tong Qiao was shocked. "You know how to cook?"
"A little." Xu Fengyu had participated in a food show overseas, and his job required him to learn some culinary skills.
Lin Lan put down the dumpling wrappers in her hand and was about to stand up. "I'll help you."
"No need. You can make the dumplings." Xu Fengyu said and went into the kitchen.
Tong Qiao glanced at Lu Anran and Fu Yiran. The two of them had been learning how to make dumplings for so many years, but the way they made them was still unpresentable. "An 'an, Xiao Yi, learn more from your brother."
