Chapter 850: Chapter 850: Married the wrong person once, can’t make a mistake the second time
In the evening, Qiao Yin returned to the medical clinic.
Just as Lu Lingche had said, Grandmother indeed planned to go to Old Madam Lu’s home for dinner, and Old Madam Lu had even sent a driver, waiting for her to finish work.
After seeing the last patient, Qiao Yin went with her grandmother to Old Madam Lu’s residence.
After all, one extra mouth at dinner wouldn’t make any difference to Old Madam Lu; she certainly wouldn’t mind.
As expected, when they arrived, Old Madam was very happy. Worried that Qiao Yin might find it boring talking with her and Shen Yujun, two old ladies, she called Lu Yanxi to come over as well.
As soon as Lu Yanxi heard Qiao Yin was coming, she dropped her work onto someone else and hurried over.
Upon seeing Qiao Yin, she became suspicious and asked softly, “Yinyin, why are you here for dinner at Grandma’s? Second Brother told me a few hours ago that in case Grandma asks, to say we were eating together. Weren’t you supposed to be with Second Brother?”
Qiao Yin could only tell the truth: “He did invite me to dinner, but I refused. Eating with him would be torturing myself, wouldn’t it? It’s more enjoyable to eat here at Grandma’s.”
Lu Yanxi couldn’t help sighing: “I thought I was the only one who felt eating with Second Brother was torture. He really is something else. Despite having such a handsome face, looking at him makes the meal tasteless!”
Qiao Yin laughed at her joke: “Today I also told him that I can’t eat looking at his face, and he was very unhappy about it!”
“You’re the only one who dares to say that to him. I wouldn’t dare. Just one glance from him could scare me into silence.”
As they were talking, they suddenly heard footsteps. Looking up, they saw the man they were discussing already standing in front of them.
Lu Yanxi’s eyes went wide, and her face turned pale: “Se, se, Second… Second Brother, what are you doing here!” She worried that he hadn’t heard them speaking ill of him.
Lu Lingche was beginning to suspect that every time Lu Yanxi saw him stammering “Se-se-se” she was actually cursing him, but he did not intend to pay attention to such a low-IQ being.
He first greeted Old Madam Lu and Shen Yujun, then sat directly next to Qiao Yin.
Qiao Yin frowned, wondering what he was doing here. Her grandmother was present, and it was obvious from her face how much she disapproved of him. Yet, he didn’t seem to fear getting scolded?
However, this was Old Madam Lu’s villa, and Lu Lingche was Old Madam Lu’s own grandson, so it was not easy for Qiao Yin to be as blunt as she would be in her office and ask him to leave.
But it didn’t matter that she didn’t speak up because Shen Yujun did: “President Lu has already divorced Yinyin, isn’t it inappropriate for you to be sitting next to her now, and wouldn’t it be more proper to avoid her? Besides, with me and Yinyin here, it’s not fitting for you to join us for the meal, don’t you think?”
When Shen Yujun spoke, there was not a hint of a smile on her face. Her serious demeanor made her seem very authoritative, exuding a strong sense of pressure.
Moreover, while others might give face to the Lu family, to Old Madam Lu, she would not. She would directly ask someone to leave because, in every aspect, the Lu family owed Qiao Yin.
Qiao Yin, at her young age, had already been harmed by Lu Lingche, leading to a divorce and a miscarriage. It was already quite restrained of her not to slap Lu Lingche on the face.
In the presence of Shen Yujun, Lu Lingche reined himself in and even appeared less confident. His face wasn’t as cold as when facing others: “The divorce was my fault, and I hope you can give me a chance to make amends.”
Shen Yujun spoke firmly: “A mistake is a mistake; amends are useless. You have no chance. I will never agree to you getting involved with Yinyin again. She has already married the wrong man once and can’t make that mistake a second time.”
Lu Lingche knew it would be hard to win over Shen Yujun, but he didn’t expect it to be this difficult.
Shen Yujun had no intention whatsoever of accepting him.
Indeed, the deeds with which he had hurt Qiao Yin in the past had now borne the bitterest of fruits, and this fruit, he could only swallow.
What do you think?
