“Well, that’s not impossible! But, you’ve got to promise me that you can only drink a little everyday,” s.h.i.+ Guang replied before looking over at the door’s direction. “Fangfei, help me to open the door.”
“Didn’t you say that your house’s Young Master Lu isn’t coming home tonight?” Li Fangfei stood up in surprise, somewhat fl.u.s.tered.
“It’s definitely not him.”
“Then who could it be?”
Li Fangfei strode over to the door and peeked out through the peephole—it was a pretty and elegant woman in her forties to fifties. Thinking that she must be a neighbor, Li Fangfei opened the door.
When that beautiful lady saw that it was Li Fangfei, she furrowed her brows with a mellowed anger. “Who are you? What are you doing in my son’s place? Where are my son and daughter-in-law?”
When s.h.i.+ Guang heard that familiar voice, she yelped out right away, “Mummy!”
It was only till she heard s.h.i.+ Guang’s voice that that beautiful lady’s face softened as she crossed Li Fangfei and strode right in. “s.h.i.+ Guang…” Looking at the cast on her legs, her face turned rather terrible immediately. “What is with this? What happened to you? Why didn’t Yanchen say anything about it at all?”
“I fell down by accident and it’s just a little swollen, without any tears or sprains. The cast will be removed tomorrow.”
Li Fangfei was stunned. “…”
This was Young Master Lu’s mother… s.h.i.+ Guang’s mother in law. To think that she would be this young and beautiful!
The thought of her staring at her as though she was a homewrecking third party earlier on had Li Fangfei not knowing to laugh or cry. But, s.h.i.+ Guang was truly blessed.
As the saying went, ‘Marrying a good husband is not as lucky as one finding a mother-in-law who dotes on you.’
“Mummy, why are you here?”
“I’m here to visit you, but look at how your leg is injured! How about I stay in the short term and take care of you?”
s.h.i.+ Guang was surprised that Shen Lingshuang would want to stay and take care of her. “What about Xiao Bai?”
“He went over to his daddy’s place for this period of time,” Shen Lingshuang replied as she asked, “Is the guestroom upstairs or down?”
It was only then that s.h.i.+ Guang realized she had brought her luggage along with her as she pointed to the right side in a stumped manner. “There downstairs…”
“Alright, I’ll stay at your place for this period of time,” With that, she dragged her luggage with her into the guestroom.
“What’s going on?” Li Fangfei asked s.h.i.+ Guang, a little envious, “Your mother-in-law knew that you were injured and came over specially to take care of you.”
“Doesn’t seem like it. She didn’t know that I was injured previously,” Could she have left house after quarreling with Chief Lu?
s.h.i.+ Guang picked up her phone. “This can’t do. I’ve got to call Lu Yanchen and ask about it.”
Lu Yanchen, who picked up the call, was back at the Lus’ place currently. Father Lu was in a fit as he bellowed out at Lu Yanchen, “Hurry and find your mum! That woman is really going out of hand!”
After conversing with Lu Yanchen on the phone, s.h.i.+ Guang found out that there were guests over at the Lus—it was a mother-daughter pair.
Now, the husband of the mother was Chief Lu’s cla.s.smate—they were homies and buddies who had grown up together.
Later on, Chief Lu went into the military and the cla.s.smate went abroad, and had been staying overseas the entire time. He met with an accident some time ago, and before he pa.s.sed away, made a phone call to Chief Lu, hoping that he could help take care of them after they returned to the country.
Because he was a sentimental and loyal man, Chief Lu agreed to let them stay at their place for the time being while they looked to settle down.
Initially, this should have been nothing at all. After all, Shen Lingshuang was a friendly person who loved guests. What she was unhappy and bothered about was that the wife of the cla.s.smate—Su Liping—once had a relations.h.i.+p with Chief Lu.
