Aunt Qinyan is calling both of you inside,” Gu Shangyan said as he reached them. He lightly tapped Lu Xuan’s head and added, “Don’t disappear or we won’t be able to find you.”
After the little episode in the garden, Lu Xuan stayed behind her like a shadow. He didn’t let her out of his sight. Whatever she wanted to eat or drink, he got her everything on the table. Even An Qinyan was surprised by the way both of them were behaving so peacefully. She wanted to ask them but decided not to probe into the siblings’ matter.
A few minutes later, Lu Zhaolin and his wife Song Yifei approached An Qinyan who was occupying the table with her children and Gu Yanxi and his nephew.
“An Qinyan,” Lu Zhaolin greeted her and ignored Gu Yanxi while Song Yifei greeted both of them. The couple were surprised to see Lu Xuan acting like a knight to An Xiulan who didn’t look anything less than a princess.
An Qinyan shot her children a look to greet their father and his wife and the kids obediently acted on it.
“Xiulan looks as pretty as a princess,” Song Yifei sighed. “Don’t you think so, Zhaolin?”
She was trying to stop the awkward atmosphere between the girl and her father.
“En,” Lu Zhaolin nodded. “Like a princess.”
An Xiulan blushed as she turned her gaze away. “Father. Aunt Song. Did you not bring Xiaobao with you?”
“Do you miss your little brother?” Song Yifei asked with a mischievous idea shining in her eyes.
An Xiulan nodded her head.
Song Yifei jumped at the chance, “Then why don’t you come with Lu Xuan tomorrow and can play with your little brother who misses you too much. He always cries asking me to video call you all the time. He didn’t understand that you have a school to attend.”
An Xiulan looked at her mom who smiled at her and then said to the couple, “Okay.”
She might not have any feelings aside from politeness for the Lu couple but she loved her younger cute brother.
“Xuan, don’t forget to bring your sister with you tomorrow, ” Lu Zhaolin reminded his son. His gaze then settled on Gu Shangyan who was putting dishes on his uncle’s plate and said, “Student Gu, thank you for your hard work. My son’s grades have increased tremendously.”
Seeing the deadpan expression on Gu Shangyan’s face, Lu Xuan stifled a laugh. His father was still keen on having such a son, wasn’t he? What a trouble as none of his children was interested in studies.
After talking for a few more minutes, the Lu couple left the banquet as their child was still at home.
“What’s the deal with your dad and Shangyan?” An Qinyan asked as they were returning home.
“He likes Gu Shangyan and wants a son like him,” Lu Xuan said, rolling his eyes. “Ma, do you also want an extraordinary son like him who is perfect in everything he does.”
“I like my own son just fine,” An Qinyan said, avoiding the urge to roll her eyes.
“What if I couldn’t make it to college? What if I couldn’t fulfil your expectations?” Lu Xuan ended up asking.
“All I expect for my children is to be happy and healthy. About the rest I don’t care, ” An Qinyan replied.
Lu Xuan didn’t ask any more questions.
An Qinyan looked at her daughter who was fast asleep, her head placed against the window. Sighing, she put her daughter’s head on her shoulder and then she stiffened.
“Take us to the hospital,” An Qinyan said to the driver and the guilty Lu Xuan panicked.
Once An Xiulan was admitted to the hospital, the doctor assured An Qinyan that her daughter was fine as she was only running a fever due to seasonal changes. After resting for a day and taking medicine, she would be fine.
“I’m sorry, ma,” Lu Xuan whispered.
An Qinyan smiled as she wrapped an arm around his shoulder and let him put his head on her shoulder. “It’s not your fault. Both of you were born weak and premature. Actually, you were weaker than her when you were a baby. This was the reason why I let you stay with your dad. He has better means to keep you healthy than me. With time, Lanlan’s immune system became better but not like yours. She falls sick quickly. It was not so frequent back then. But after the accident, she grew weaker. Now her body is so weak that it couldn’t even survive a chill.”
“She will be fine after a good rest. This girl loves to exhaust herself and then ends up at the hospital. What am I going to do with her? She worried me too much,” An Qinyan whispered as her eyes shone with tears. “Ah Xuan, take care of your sister, okay? When I’m not around I always worry that something is going to happen to her. I don’t know why I’m so paranoid. Both of you are very precious to me, I only want you two to be healthy and happy. I won’t ask for anything but this.”
Holding his hand tightly she whispered, “Promise me that you will never put your life in danger. You will always prioritise your own well being– physically, mentally and emotionally. You are not supposed to be unhappy.”
Lu Xuan laughed but then burst into tears and hugged his mother. “I promise.”
“No more fighting. If someone bullies you, ask your guards to deal with them. If you really feel like beating someone, just join a martial art class,” An Qinyan whispered.
“No more delinquent behaviour,” Lu Xuan whispered. It would be tough for him to leave his addiction of fighting but he could try, right?
“The patient has woken up, would you like to meet her?” The nurse asked and both of them followed her inside.
“Lu Xuan, I will beat you up if you took advantage of my sickness and stole my mom. Real men don’t play dirty,” An Xiulan muttered in a hoarse voice. She couldn’t open her eyes but she felt that it was necessary to make herself clear.
“Come on, Teeny, you can have our mom,” Lu Xuan rolled his eyes. “I don’t mind sharing.”
“Nurse, give him an injection. He seemed to have lost some brain cells,” An Xiulan murmured before falling asleep.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
