Shadow and Light: The Bride Who Clicks Her Way to Love-Chapter 416 - 429: The Old Stubborn Ones

He initially intended to carry her back to his bedroom to sleep, but she woke up as soon as he moved.

She looked at him with a pair of still hazy eyes, somewhat startled, and instinctively pushed him away.

He said, "Don’t move around, be careful not to fall."

He was still holding her, his balance not too steady.

At this moment, she realized she was being held by him, her delicate face flushed with embarrassment, and she said angrily, "Put me down!"

Seeing her angry, Lu Shifeng dared not argue with her, so he carefully placed her on the ground.

As soon as Su Xingyu steadied herself, she looked at him angrily, her eyes full of caution: "What are you doing?!"

"You seemed to be sleeping uncomfortably, so I wanted to carry you to the bed." Lu Shifeng explained.

Su Xingyu, still somewhat shaken, understood from his words that he had no ill intentions, and said, "No need, I’ll just stay here and watch Han. By the way, Han is sick and a bit uncomfortable, I’ll take him to the hospital later and get a room next to Jue’s, so it’s easier to care for him." Although she couldn’t let go of Han, she couldn’t let go of Jue either; both are dear to her heart.

Lu Shifeng looked down at her, a clearly fragile and delicate girl, yet forcing herself to bear the responsibilities of a mother to two children.

He asked, "Why didn’t you wake me last night?" Unconsciously, there was a hint of questioning and dominance in his voice.

It had been a long time since he appeared like this.

Su Xingyu was instinctively a bit scared, especially during these tumultuous times, and didn’t want to argue with him, so she slightly turned her head and said, "Even if I awaken you, you couldn’t help much. I already called the family doctor."

That’s true, he’s not a doctor, so what’s the point of waking him?

But for some reason, the feeling of frustration in Lu Shifeng’s heart was unshakeable, he firmly turned her body, staring into her eyes, "In the future, no matter what happens, wake me up the first time, whether I can help or not, just tell me."

This man... is he crazy?

Su Xingyu looked at him as if he were insane, wasn’t this man always so precise in distinguishing between useful and useless situations?

Why suddenly insist on doing something useless?

She really didn’t want to argue or doubt him, so she only perfunctorily said, "We’ll talk about it when the time comes."

Talk about it when the time comes?

He didn’t agree, "You must wake me up. Xingyu, I don’t want to see you bearing all these alone."

Her heart skipped a beat, suddenly comprehending his reason without warning.

She recoiled a few steps in panic, then ran out of the room.

Lu Shifeng didn’t chase after her.

He looked at the direction she left, then turned silently to look at Han for a long time, and became even more determined—no matter what, he should send these two children to kindergarten.

He didn’t want her to spend so much effort on these two little ones besides her work.

Perhaps once he had wanted an ideal wife and mother, thinking a woman who was responsible to her children was the ideal wife, but now, he didn’t want an ideal wife and mother, he only wanted his Xingyu to have more time to look at him, to care about him, not to neglect him like a stranger.

The two little ones were caught up in this inexplicable situation by the Boss’s calculations.

The Boss sent the best medical staff to take care of them, allowing them to recover quickly.

Su Xingyu was very pleased, rarely taking the initiative to discuss with Lu Shifeng: "On the day the children are discharged, how about we host a welcome party for them at home? Han will surely be very happy, and his mood may somewhat positively influence Jue, alleviating Jue’s symptoms of autism."

Lu Shifeng also thought it was a good idea.

However, he had another piece of news to tell her.

"You’ve been back in the country for a while now, and the old house, grandfather and grandmother have learned about it. Actually, some time ago, they wanted to meet you, but I was worried it would upset you, so I stopped them. But now that Jue has had such a big surgery, it wouldn’t be reasonable for the elders not to come see the child, so on the day of the children’s discharge party, why not let the elders come too."

Su Xingyu paused for a moment, almost forgetting about his large family.

However, it wasn’t as if she had really forgotten entirely.

Over the years, she often thought of Lu Shifeng’s grandmother, the one who sat in the gentle afternoon sunlight, embroidering camellia patterns on a dress with colorful silk threads for her.

She had always missed grandmother and wanted to someday let grandmother see Han, to meet this pair of great-grandchildren.

However, even though Han was, by blood, a child of the Lu Family, externally, everyone thought he was the child of her and Ouyang Yi.

Su Xingyu looked at Lu Shifeng with some worry: "Han is here too, will your family be happy to see Han?" She didn’t understand why Lu Shifeng could accept Han, perhaps it’s the unbreakable blood bond between father and son? So mysteriously making this domineering man willing to raise "someone else’s child" without complaint.

However, it might also be because she could accept Jue, so Lu Shifeng reciprocated by accepting Han?

She was lost in thought, but his family, those old stubborn ones of the Lu Family, were probably not so easy to talk.

Lu Shifeng knew her worries, in fact, his grandfather had come to find him some days ago, closing the door to lecture him in the study. The gist was, absolutely not allowing Han into the doors of the Lu Family, otherwise, it would bring disgrace to them! But Lu Shifeng said, "Han is Xingyu’s child, so he’s half my child."

At that time, Mr. Lu was infuriated, pointing his shaking finger at him: "You also know he’s Su Xingyu’s child!" Since Lu Shifeng gave him a definite answer, Mr. Lu did not doubt whether Su Xingyu was the real one or a fake, only said, "Calculate the child’s age! More than two years old, right when your marriage was still valid she cuckolded you! Let me tell you, Lu Shifeng, before I could turn a blind eye when you married her as your wife, but I can’t accept a green hat on the Lu Family! You not only can’t acknowledge Su Han as your son but must also divorce Su Xingyu! Proceed with the formal divorce procedures!"

When saying these words, Mr. Lu only regretted not having forced Lu Shifeng to actually register at the civil affairs bureau with Zhuang Heng.

Regarding Su Xingyu’s "resurrection," Mr. Lu also consulted a lawyer. The lawyer’s reply made his feelings complicated: If Lu Shifeng had remarried after Su Xingyu’s "death," regardless of her coming back alive, legally, their marriage would have been automatically dissolved. But as Lu Shifeng didn’t remarry, once Su Xingyu returned, their marriage relationship automatically resumed.
