When Lu Jianlin made his way over, he thought that they would separate from each other.
However, to his surprise, his son who had previously attached great importance to his image, was holding onto Zi Yi without the intention of letting her go.
Lu Jianlin’s expression turned stern and just as he was about to educate them, Lu Jingye suddenly whispered, “Father, Yiyi is asleep.”
Lu Jianlin was surprised. He suddenly recalled that she was just an eighteen-year-old young lady and she had not managed to get a wink of sleep the entire night. Not to mention, she had modified weapons and thought of ways to take care of the pirates. Without a doubt, she would be tired.
His expression finally softened.
He subconsciously lowered his voice. “Let her sleep for an hour. We’ll set off in an hour’s time.
“No need.”
Lu Jingye held her waist with one hand and bent down to pick her up swiftly without waking her.
“The robots have already helped us pack our luggage. We can leave right away.”
Lu Jianlin nodded his head and said, “Take her directly to the helicopter. I’ll come back with my luggage.”
“Okay!”
Lu Jingye walked outside with Zi Yi in his arms.
…
By the time Zi Yi woke up, she found herself lying on a bed.
The room reflected before her eyes was neat and clean and the interior of the room was of a warm tone. On the left was a large window and the curtains were currently drawn, only leaving a small gap. With the light that shone in through the gap, she managed to have visibility of the whole room.
Zi Yi managed to recognize that the room belonged to Lu Jingye in a single glance.
However, she did not know where she was currently at.
She got down from the bed and pulled the curtains. What she saw was a garden.
There were currently a large number of roses blooming in the garden.
Just as Zi Yi wanted to open the window to smell the aroma of roses, the door opened.
She subconsciously turned around and saw Lu Jingye walking in.
Lu Jingye saw her hand on the window and guessed what she had wanted to do. He grabbed a coat from the side and came over to drape it on her shoulders. “Why are you standing here without a coat?”
“It’s fine, I’m not cold.”
“It will be once you open the window.”
Zi Yi did not bother to put her hands into the sleeves and turned around to hug his waist. She raised her head and asked, “Ah Jing, where are we right now?”
“At my parent’s residence.”
Zi Yi was momentarily stunned and she subconsciously asked, “Did Mom come back with us?”
“No.”
“…Hehe… Mom must still be angry at Dad. He needs to go and cajole her.”
Lu Jingye raised his hand and stroked her head without answering. It could be considered as agreeing with her words.
Zi Yi instantly smiled with her eyes turning into crescent moons. “Where’s Dad?”
“He’s downstairs and he said we should head over once you wake up.”
Zi Yi nodded her head. She walked out from his embrace and said, “Then I’ll go and freshen myself up. We’ll head over once I’m done.”
“Okay.”
Zi Yi washed up and changed her clothes, before she and Lu Jingye went downstairs.
Just then Lu Jianlin was currently sitting on the sofa and reading a newspaper.
However, his gaze was fixed on a certain spot and it had not moved at all.
Clearly, he was staring into a blank s.p.a.ce.
Zi Yi quietly pulled on Lu Jingye’s clothes.
Lu Jingye lightly coughed, and when Lu Jianlin looked up at them, Lu Jingye said, “Father, we can set off now.”
Lu Jianlin put down the newspaper and stood up.
The three of them headed to the door together.
When they reached the door, Lu Jianlin suddenly stopped walking.
Zi Yi and Lu Jingye followed suit and turned around to look at him.
Lu Jianlin had a stiff expression and his tone sounded casual. “Your Mother likes to eat the rose cakes made by the chef at home. I asked the chef to prepare some but they have yet to bring them out.”
Zi Yi and Lu Jingye were slightly surprised at the same time.
Following that, Zi Yi’s lips were about to curve up.
Lu Jingye held her hand and said to Lu Jianlin, “Yiyi and I will go to the kitchen to check.”
Lu Jianlin nodded and headed towards the car parked outside the courtyard.
“Hehe… Father is so adorable.”
When they walked into the kitchen, Zi Yi could not help but start laughing.
Lu Jingye only glanced at her and did not say anything else.
Only Zi Yi was there today and the males of the Lu Family were not fond of eating sweet food, so the chef subconsciously thought that Lu Jianlin had asked him to make some rose cakes for Zi Yi.
The chef had asked the helpers in the house and they said that Zi Yi had yet to get to come down. Therefore, he kept the rose cakes in the kitchen to keep them warm.
When Zi Yi and Lu Jingye made their way over, the chef was surprised.
“Second Young Master, Second Young Madam.”
“We’re here to take the rose cakes.”
“Second Young Madam, if you wanted to have the rose cakes, you could have just got the others to come and fetch them.”
As soon as the chef said that, he hastily brought out the rose cakes.
Zi Yi felt her mouth watering from the smell of the rose cakes.
Lu Jingye picked up one and fed her before he said to the chef, “Pack the others in insulated boxes please. We’ll be taking them out.”
“Okay,” the chef answered and went to get the insulated boxes. He packed all the cakes and handed them to Lu Jingye.
The rose cakes were not very big, but they were really delicious. After taking a bite, the rose fragrance flooded her mouth.
Lu Jingye saw that Zi Yi liked eating it and asked, “Do you want another one?”
Zi Yi shook her head. “Dad specially had these prepared for Mom. If I ate them, he won’t be able to coax Mom.”
Lu Jingye laughed and said, “Mother won’t be able to eat more than two. Father had asked them to make so many and there’s obviously your share here too.”
Zi Yi’s eyes curved into crescent moons. “Then I’ll eat them together with Mom.”
Lu Jingye nodded his head.
The two of them arrived at the car very soon. After they got in, the car drove towards M.Uni’s direction.
Lu Jingye had given Mrs. Lu a call in advance.
By the time the car turned into the courtyard, Mrs. Lu was already standing outside waiting for them.
“Mom, I brought Dad back.”
Mrs. Lu only gave Lu Jianlin a glance before she turned her attention to Zi Yi.
She waited for Zi Yi to come over before she laughed and scolded her. “You naughty girl. To think that you left right away.”
Zi Yi gave Mrs. Lu a fawning smile. “But Mom, I brought Dad back. See?”
She then pointed at the food box in Lu Jingye’s hand. “Before we came over, Dad specially got the chef to prepare your favorite rose cakes for you.”
Mrs. Lu looked at Lu Jianlin.
Lu Jianlin said, “My wife, I have returned.”
Mrs. Lu’s nose suddenly felt sour and she said sullenly, “What does your return have to do with me? Also… this is my daughter-in-law’s place, what are you doing here?”
She turned around after she said her piece and walked towards the backyard.
Zi Yi and Lu Jingye stood there and looked at Lu Jianlin, who remained motionless.
Lu Jianlin’s eyebrows were furrowed together tightly and he looked very vexed.
Zi Yi called out to him and she kindly reminded him. “Dad, Mom is angry. Why aren’t you chasing after her to coax her?”
Lu Jianlin looked at Zi Yi but he still remained motionless.
Zi Yi took the food box from Lu Jingye’s hand and pa.s.sed it to him. “After you left the capital, Mom has been missing you day and night. Even when she sleeps at night, she’s been unable to sleep soundly. If you don’t go and coax her, be careful that she might not go back with you tonight.”
Lu Jianlin pursed his lips and after a long time, he took the food box from Zi Yi and chased after his wife towards the backyard.
Lu Jingye walked over to Zi Yi’s side and she wriggled her eyebrows while she suggested. “Why don’t we go for a walk first?”
