Lu Ming said politely, “I’m here to visit Uncle Mu and Aunt Ye and pick Yinyin up.”
When Mu Ran heard that Lu Ming was going to bring Lin Yin back, he instantly exploded. “Lu Ming, don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. You want to take our Xiao Yin away, right? Let me tell you, no way!”
The Mu family looked at Lin Yin in unison, making Lin Yin’s heart tingle.
Lin Yin smiled awkwardly and said, “I did have an appointment with Lu Ming. I have something to discuss outside. I’ll go back today.”
Ye Wen looked reluctant. Mu Cheng sighed slightly and asked someone to open the door for Lu Ming.
Mu Ran looked disapproving. Mu Cheng looked at Mu Ran sternly and said,
“Mu Ran, you can’t be so rude to a guest.”
Mu Ran was so angry that her cheeks puffed up. “Dad, you don’t know Lu
Ming’s dirty thoughts. He’s staring at our Yinyin. He must have ill intentions.”
Mu Xiao asked gently, “Yinyin, are you planning to return to your apartment tonight?”
Lin Yin nodded and said, “That’s right. It’s getting late. I should go back. I have something to do at the company tomorrow.”
The Mu family’s faces were filled with disappointment. Mu Ran was about to step forward to say something when Mu Heng pulled him back.
When Lu Ming came in, he could feel that the atmosphere in the room was not right.
He entered the house without changing his expression and greeted Mu Cheng and Ye Wen first.
Ye Wen looked unhappy and turned her face away angrily. Mu Cheng said politely, “It’s been hard on you to pick Yinyin up so late.”
Lu Ming was surprised. Why was Mu Cheng so intimate with Yinyin? This was completely like an elder’s love for a junior.
Alarm bells rang in Lu Ming’s heart. He was anxious to know what had happened between Lin Yin and the Mu family during the few days he was away.
Now, the feeling the Mu family gave him was that he was s.n.a.t.c.hing someone from the Mu family. Lin Yin had been divided into the Mu Family’s territory.
“Yinyin and I are neighbors. It’s on the way. It’s not difficult,” Lu Ming said with a smile.
However, Lu Ming was extremely nervous. He was afraid that the three Mu brothers would have tricked Lin Yin home while he was away.
Lin Yin hurriedly went forward and smiled. “That’s right. Lu Ming and I are neighbors and we happened to have an appointment to discuss something. It’s just nice for us to go back together.”
Lu Ming was a little puzzled. When did he agree to talk to Lin Yin?
However, when he turned his puzzled gaze to Lin Yin, she secretly winked at him.
Lu Ming immediately nodded heavily in understanding. “Yes, Yinyin is right.
We still have something to discuss, so we won’t disturb your family.”
Mu Ran looked dissatisfied and even gritted his teeth. “You’ve already disturbed us. A lot.”
Mu Heng stopped pulling Mu Ran along. Mu Xiao’s gaze was not very friendly either. Ye Wen was even more unhappy and pulled a long face. Only Mu Cheng was still polite to him with a smile.
Lu Ming felt that he had unintentionally offended the Mu Family, but he did not understand why.
Could it be that she was blaming him for s.n.a.t.c.hing away the Mu family’s future daughter-in-law?
If that was the case, Lu Ming felt that he could only offend her.
Lin Yin smiled at the Mu family. “Then I’ll go back first.”
Ye Wen looked at Lin Yin sadly and said pitifully, “Tian Tian, remember to come back to see Mom, okay? Mom is waiting for you at home!” Lin Yin smiled and nodded.
Lu Ming was stunned. Tian Tian? Mother? What was going on?
Before Lu Ming could figure it out, Lin Yin called Lu Ming to leave. It was not until the two of them got into the car that Lu Ming asked with a puzzled expression, “Did Aunt Ye treat you as her daughter, Tian Tian?”
Lu Ming knew about the Mu family and also knew that Mu Cheng and Ye Wen had a younger daughter called Mu Tian.
In just 18 years, Mu Tian disappeared. Everyone who knew about this said that Mu Tian had probably died long ago.
Only the Mu family was still secretly looking for Mu Tian year after year.
Lin Yin nodded, then shook her head.
“What do you mean by nodding and shaking your head?” Lu Ming asked in confusion.
Lin Yin pondered for a moment and said frankly, “I nodded because the Aunt Ye you mentioned really treats me as her daughter. I shook my head because I’m not just treated like her daughter, but I’m indeed Mu Tian.”
Lu Ming’s eyes widened slightly as he looked at Lin Yin in disbelief, as if he wanted to see any trace of Lin Yin joking in her eyes..
