Chapter 38: Realistic Gold Used to Bring Good Luck to Oneself (Fake Gold)
Lu Miaomiao stared intently at the two clasped hands, her chest aching with anger.
She would react as if touching Yan Chen would kill her, but now that she's holding hands with Lu Yunqing, this innocent-looking woman, he doesn't seem to mind at all.
He deserved to be dumped by Lu Yunqing!
When Madam Lu saw the two of them return together, looking quite intimate, she was surprised, but after the surprise came some joy.
She had just been worried that Lu Miaomiao might have acted recklessly and angered Madam Yan, which was why she was kicked out, and that Madam Yan might take her anger out on the Lu family.
Now there's no need to worry.
Now that Yun Qing is with Yan Chen, even if Lu Miaomiao really did something wrong, Madam Yan will not make things difficult for the Lu family out of respect for Yun Qing.
Yun Qing is definitely the most reliable one!
Madam Lu hurriedly and warmly greeted Yan Chen, and also asked the housekeeper to call Lu Quanyuan and Lu Shaoan again to urge them to come back soon.
Yan Chen's attitude wasn't exactly cold, but it wasn't particularly enthusiastic either.
Madam Lu didn't mind. Yan Chen and Yun Qing were already engaged, and she knew Yan Chen quite well; that was just his personality.
It's probably difficult to see him smiling and laughing.
Madam Lu was busy talking to Yan Chenyunqing and completely forgot about Lu Miaomiao.
Yan Chen completely ignored Lu Miaomiao, as if he had never even seen her.
Only Yun Qing dutifully played the role of the vicious female supporting character, appearing as a gentle and harmless white lotus flower, yet secretly eyeing Lu Miaomiao with a mocking and boastful gaze.
She would lean against Yan Chen from time to time, feigning intimacy, and her words were all meant to tell Lu Miaomiao that she and Yan Chen were very much in love.
Lu Miaomiao almost tore the cushion next to her to pieces.
Yan Chen glanced at Yun Qing, who was gloating, and then reached out to put his arm around her slender waist.
Yun Qing collapsed into his arms, blushing as she punched him with her little fists, "You're so annoying~ Mom and my sister are still here."
Yan Chen: ...
It was just a hug? Anyone who didn't know better would think he did something inappropriate for children.
To avoid being unfairly blamed, Yan Chen pinched her waist.
Yun Qing almost jumped up when he pinched her, and quickly reached out to grab his hand that was still trying to caress her, looking up at him pitifully.
Yan Chen stared at her for a moment, then took pity on her and let her go.
Their subtle actions couldn't be hidden from anyone; Madam Lu watched with a smile that never faded.
They thought the engagement was completely hopeless, but unexpectedly, the two were able to reconcile and their relationship was even better than before.
This is fate!
As for Lu Miaomiao, if looks could kill, Yun Qing would have been unable to breathe long ago, and Yan Chen would have been stabbed twice by her as well.
At this moment, Lu Quanyuan and Lu Shaoan returned.
The two of them were incredibly enthusiastic towards Yan Chen.
When he heard Yan Chen say that Yun Qing was going to stay at his place, he wished he could pack Yun Qing up and send her there himself right away.
Yun Qing: ...I knew it would turn out like this.
The maid was quick and efficient, and soon she had packed everything up, including the jars and pots.
That's right, Guan Guan has to be moved over too, since she's Yan Chen's daughter!
As Lu Miaomiao watched the Lu family busily packing their things, and then seeing Yan Chen and Yun Qing off together, she couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
I thought the Lu family really loved Lu Yunqing, but it turns out they're just like selling their daughter, eager to send Lu Yunqing to Yan Chen's bed!
But Lu Yunqing must be very proud of himself!
Yan Chen held Yun Qing's hand and turned to tell the Lu family that they didn't need to see her off, but he happened to see Lu Miaomiao sitting in the house glaring at Yun Qing with a gloomy expression.
Yan Chen's expression darkened. He held Yun Qing's soft, boneless fingers and said slowly, "After all, she is the daughter of the Lu family. Don't let her implicate the Lu family."
Lu Quanyuan was taken aback when he heard this. He glanced at Yun Qing, not understanding Yan Chen's meaning for a moment.
His mind was entirely focused on Yun Qing and Yan Chen, and he had long forgotten about Lu Miaomiao.
Madam Lu's expression changed. She reached out and tugged at Lu Quanyuan's sleeve, then turned to look at Lu Miaomiao inside the room.
She knew it!
Lu Miaomiao was kicked out of the Yan family, which must have angered Madam Yan. Even Yan Chen was so dissatisfied with her. If it weren't for Yun Qing and Yan Chen's good relationship, the Lu family would have been implicated!
After making a comment, Yan Chen didn't say anything more and led Yun Qing away.
With a gloomy face, Lu Quanyuan returned to his room and ordered Lu Miaomiao to stay home and reflect on her actions, forbidding her from going out, and even had someone keep a close watch on her.
If he weren't worried about his reputation, he would have cut ties with Lu Miaomiao immediately.
I truly regret adopting this daughter in the first place!

Yun Qing sat curled up against the headboard, hugging her knees. The blanket was pulled high, covering most of her face, leaving only her bright, watery eyes visible.
She looked at the person and the cat facing off at the door and found it somewhat amusing.
"Meow……"
"no!"
"Meow meow……"
"You're a big kid now."
"Meow meow meow……"
You need to learn to be independent.
Seeing that the two had been talking for a long time without any result, Yun Qing couldn't help but say, "Guan Guan is new to this place and is probably not used to it. Let it come in."
That's perfect, no need to worry about Yan Chen going too far and actually being defiled by her.
Thinking of Yan Chen's state just now, Yun Qing couldn't help but pull her disheveled bathrobe under the covers, feeling a sense of danger.
She suspected that if Guan Guan hadn't suddenly brought his cat face close, startling the two of them, he wouldn't have planned to stop at all.
The current situation is that Yan Chen, whose good time was interrupted, took Guan Guan out, wanting it to sleep in its own cat bed, but Guan Guan was unwilling and kept scratching at the door.
So Yan Chen tried to reason with it, but obviously, it didn't work.
At this moment, Guanguan seemed to understand Yun Qing's words. Ignoring Yan Chen, it skipped past his feet and went into the house.
Yan Chen glanced back at his unfilial daughter, sighed, and went out to bring in its cat bed.
Then he took the gas cylinder that was snuggling in Yun Qing's arms and put it into the cat bed, saying with a stern face, "Sleep in your own bed, or I'll lock you outside."
Guan Guan tilted its head back and looked pitifully at Yun Qing, "Meow..."
Yan Chen shoved its head back down, threatening with a cold laugh, "If your mother dares to plead for you..."
He turned to look at Yun Qing, his aggressive and dangerous gaze so frightening that Yun Qing immediately shrank back into the covers.
So Yan Chen was planning to sacrifice himself completely, wasn't he?
She couldn't help but start to reflect: had she not shown him enough love, which was why he had to go to such lengths?
Yan Chen withdrew his gaze, looked down at the jar, and added the second half of his sentence, "...I'll just put canned food in your jar!"
Guan Guan glanced at the bed, perhaps realizing that its mother was no longer reliable, so it quietly huddled in its cat bed and obediently settled down.
Exhausted, Yan Chen returned to bed, turned off the light, and prepared to sleep.
After reflecting on her actions, Yun Qing snuggled into his arms and started touching him.
Whether Yan Chen felt her love is hard to say, but he certainly felt the fire within him.
Then Yunqing nudged him, "The jar is still there."
Yan Chen was so angry he laughed. "Is it because it's here that you dare to act so recklessly?"
Yun Qing quietly shrank back and remained silent.
