Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 398 kids these days



After a tearful conversation of catching up with life, Madam Lu and Yue Ling left the garden room to join everyone else in the living room.

As the two women enter the room, Lu Tian and Grandfather Ji were already done with their conversation as well.

Grandfather Ji and Old Lu were discussing about something as both men sat on the sofa, while Lu Tian stood near the window with Zhuang Xie Li.

From the corners of Lu Tian's eyes, he sees his wife walking into the room with his mother. He turn to look at her then to Zhuang Xie Li.

"Excuse me for a moment."

Saying this, he strides towards his wife. However, when he saw her red and puffy eyes like she had cried for days, his eyes darken intensely.

He glance murderously at his mother as his cold voice spoke.

"What did you do?"

"…"

Madam Lu stares in disbelief at her oldest son. She looks at Yue Ling then back to Lu Tian.

She knows why her son is angry, but what about her?

The way she looks right now is not so different from Yue Ling!

"Tian, you shouldn't speak to your mother like that?"

Yue Ling frowns at Lu Tian. She could not believe that he dares to talk to his mother this way.

Taking a step to the right, she slightly blocks Madam Lu like shielding the woman from a monster.

"She didn't do anything wrong."

Being protected by Yue Ling, Madam Lu's eyes turned moist as her entire being softens.

She is very touched to know that Yue Ling would not hesitate to defend her. Even if the other person was Lu Tian.

She sighs at the thought of having such a wonderful daughter-in-law, then glares at her son.

"You think I will be mean to my daughter-in-law? Hah! The only ones I will be mean to is you and Han!"

"…"

Lu Han who was currently sitting on the ground with Ji Jingxu and Zhuang Li was happily playing a card game. However, when he heard his mother, he felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

He looks at Yue Ling then to the two boys.

Seeing them look at him with pity, he sighs inside and lower his hand holding the cards.

Bringing his other hand up, he covers his eyes and sob.

"Children let me tell you. Be grateful you do not have a mother like mine."

He inhales a sniffle and wails louder with no tears.

"I am this old and my mother still beat me like I am an empty can in the street for her to kick."

"…"

Ji Jingxu and Zhuang Li stares at Lu Han speechlessly. Both individual glance at one another then back to the man crying without tears.

Feeling sympathy for the grown man, Zhuang Li stretch an arm to pat Lu Han on the back. His head nods and he heaves a sigh like he was older than the man.

"Mm, mm. I will be grateful that my father does not hit me."

Lu Han quickly pause in his act and looks at Zhuang Li, then Ji Jingxu. Seeing how they are so much luckier than him, he felt even worse.

He lowers his head again and sob like a person who had gone through so much hardship.

"Wuu… Why are kids these days are so lucky! Wuu…"

Zhuang Li did not know what else to do. He looks at Ji Jingxu for help, but only got a shrug of both shoulders.

Standing unmoving in her position, Madam Lu stares with heavy eyes at her youngest son's exaggerating act. She takes a deep breath and massage her temple.

"Han, if you keep acting like that, I will drag you back to live with your father and I."

Hearing this, Lu Han who was crying like his entire world was coming to an end abruptly stops crying.

He straighten his posture and shamelessly smiles to both boys then glares at his mother.

"Ma, I was just showing these two boys how hard my life has been."

"…"

Ji Jingxu stares at Lu Han with a complex expression. He felt that the man's sense of humor is very out of this world. However, thinking of something, he reach his arm to pat the man's shoulder.

He stares seriously into Lu Han's eyes and spoke in a serious tone.

"Lu Han, you have lived a very hard life. I will pray for you."

Standing next to Madam Lu, Yue Ling couldn't help but chuckle at her brother's words. This feeling of knowing such wonderful people gave her a peaceful feeling.

She looks at Lu Tian and smiles.

"Tian, can I talk to you."

The space between Lu Tian's brows crease into three lines as he was pondering in thoughts. Should he embarrass at the fact that his family is this way?

However, hearing his wife's words, all the colors on his face drained.

What did she want to talk to him about?

Did his mother tell her something?

Seeing the look on his face, Yue Ling chuckles. She takes a step forward and reach to hold his hand.

"Can I tell my yeye?"

Although her voice was very quiet, Lu Tian quickly sighed in relief. He thought it was going to be something scary.

Brushing the quick feeling he fear away, he nods his head.

"If you want."

A smile curl on Yue Ling's face as she tilt her head to look at her grandfather.

Even with the scene that just happened, neither Grandfather nor Old Lu paid any attention to it. Both men were too into the conversation they were having.

Staring at his wife, Lu Tian faintly smile. If she wants to tell the old man, he is not against it. Even if she wanted to tell the whole world, he will whole heartily support her.

Thinking of something, he reach into his pocket to take his wallet out.

"Give this to him."

Yue Ling looks away from her grandfather to Lu Tian. When she saw the ultrasound photo in his hand, she smiles with her teeth and takes the photo from him.

Never would she have thought that he would keep the picture in his wallet.

Holding it with both her hands, she inhales a deep breath to steady herself.

Just as she was going to take a step away, Lu Tian place his hand on her back.

"Let's tell him together."

"Mm."

Yue Ling nod her head and relax her shoulders. With Lu Tian by her side, she is not afraid to do anything.

Seeing the pair walk towards Grandfather Ji, everyone in the room grew curious to what they were planning to do.

Lu Han no longer wanted to sit with Ji Jingxu and Zhuang Li as stood up and tip toe his way over.

Seeing him do so, both the boys also stood up and follow after.

Standing by the window, Zhuang Xie Li shook his head. Seeing all three them move in a line, he felt like he was watching some boys in grade school playing follow the leader.

His head lightly shook, and he shift his attention to Yue Ling and Lu Tian. Just like them, he is also curious to know what these two are planning to do.

Behind Yue Ling and Lu Tian, Madam Lu's eyes lit up. She was able to catch a glimpse when Yue Ling took the ultrasound picture from Lu Tian.

Grinning from ear to ear she happily follows after the pair. She could not wait to see the old man's reaction.

Walking up to the two man converse in a deep conversation, Yue Ling and Lu Tian came to a stop.

Grandfather Ji and Old Lu saw them and turn to see Yue Ling sit beside her grandfather at the end of the sofa while Lu Tian stood at her side.

"Is something wrong?"

The old man asked as he felt it was rather odd for the pair to suddenly walk up to them like this.

Hearing the worry in his voice, Yue Ling faintly smiles and shook her head.

"It's nothing."

Her hand holding the photo slightly hides behind her as she place he rother hand over her grandfather's and part her lips to speak.

"Tian and I have a gift we want to give you."
