Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 178: Body and Mind Belong to Jinyang Alone

Zhuang Shuqing sighed helplessly in her heart, wondering why there were always people who wanted to cross her lines.

Gathering her composure, she feigned surprise and said: "Xiaoxiao, I didn’t realize you were paying so much attention to my affairs. I’m also sorry this has caused you to misunderstand."

Misunderstand?

Lin Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes and teased: "Shuqing, there’s no need to hide it from me, there’s no one else here, how old is this child now?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhuang Shuqing could see that Ye Han’s face had darkened.

The child is a few years old, but they’ve only been married for a few months; this can only mean that the child isn’t Lu Jinyang’s. And based on Lin Xiaoxiao’s words, anyone would think that this child was born to Zhuang Shuqing.

Zhuang Shuqing really wanted to rub her temples, but now was not the time to relax. She was certain that if she made any sort of move, Lin Xiaoxiao would continue to make issues out of her actions.

Meeting Ye Han’s inquisitive gaze, Zhuang Shuqing gently took her hand and said, "Mom, do you believe me?"

Mrs. Lin and Lin Xiaoxiao were both shocked to hear Zhuang Shuqing’s address.

Everybody knows that Major of the Lu Family is an only child, and suddenly there’s a woman calling Mrs. Lu "Mom," she must undoubtedly be the daughter-in-law of the Lu family.

Unlike Mrs. Lin’s shock, Lin Xiaoxiao thought of something else.

She had always thought that the marriage between Lu Jinyang and Zhuang Shuqing was far from being confirmed. But now, as Zhuang Shuqing called Lu Jinyang’s mother "Mom" so familiarly, Lin Xiaoxiao’s heart nearly collapsed.

Especially since Ye Han didn’t seem surprised at all, clearly, she had already accepted this daughter-in-law.

After the brief shock, Lin Xiaoxiao withdrew her thoughts and quietly watched the two people.

All Ye Han said was: "Silly child, I’m just curious where this child came from. Since Jinyang has chosen you, he must have his reasons, and I can certainly accept anything that he can."

Zhuang Shuqing’s heart suddenly relaxed, "Mom, rest assured, Jinyang is the only one for my body and heart." Seeing Ye Han’s satisfied look, Zhuang Shuqing then turned towards Lin Xiaoxiao.

Her face unreadable, she said: "Xiaoxiao, as you know, our studio initiated a fundraising event a while ago. It was for a three-year-old orphan who urgently needed guardians. After discussing with Jinyang, we decided to be his parents,"

Pausing, she took in everyone’s surprised expressions, "But later on, his biological parents came back for him and have already taken him away. Xiaoxiao, all this is Jinyang’s fault. You are friends, yet he didn’t even explain it to you."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lin realized what had happened, and Lin Xiaoxiao’s complexion turned extremely ugly.

She hadn’t expected this outcome. She only remembered that time in the studio’s lounge, overhearing her anxiously speaking on the phone about the child as if she was the child’s own mother, so she hadn’t considered that possibility.

But now...

"Xiaoxiao, you’re really thoughtless, talking about things you don’t understand clearly. Luckily there are no outsiders here, otherwise, you would have made a mistake."

Mrs. Lin reproached, then took Ye Han towards the nearby dining table, "Ye Han, you haven’t attended such gatherings in so long, many people probably don’t recognize you, let me introduce you..."

Zhuang Shuqing followed behind Ye Han, not intending to stray too far from her, but she was pulled back by a hand just a few steps away.

She turned around to see Lin Xiaoxiao looking at her with annoyance.

"Shuqing, I... will you blame me for this?"
