When Xuxu head that Old Master Lu visited, she immediately knew that he had come to find her, so she quickly showered and changed into a new set of clothes before heading downstairs .
When she reached the staircase, she glanced into the living room . Old Master Lu was sitting in the middle of the sofa, while Yan Weihong and Mu Li sat beside him .
The few of them chatted harmoniously .
Mu Li looked at Old Master Lu, smiling as she said to him, “Master Lu, how fortunate you are for Yinan to bring you three grandchildren at once . You’re the envy of many . ”
‘That’s right’ was written all over Old Master Lu’s face, but instead, he said, “I heard from Yinan that Xuxu is bearing twins . Two children are enough; three are too many . ”
There was silence .
‘What a hypocrite!’
Xuxu was about to call out to him when a bitter male voice sounded from behind her . “Three children will be the death of that female hooligan . ”
Xuxu was speechless .
She turned her head and peered up at him, smiling . “You’re not just saying that because you didn’t get triplets, right?”
From her understanding of this group, Lu Yinan would brag about Zhou Shuang bearing him triplets during the next meeting .
She could also imagine Yan Rusheng’s reaction to that—his face as dark as coal, before listing reasons having twins were better than triplets .
The exchange between the duo from upstairs had stirred the few below .
“Xuxu, Grandfather Lu is here to see you,” Mu Li shouted .
“Coming,” Xuxu called before making a face at Yan Rusheng .
Yan Rusheng frowned .
“Grandfather Lu,” Xuxu greeted after she retreated down the steps, smiling as she walked towards the sofa .
Xuxu was only five months into her pregnancy, but her belly already looked like the equivalent of someone six or seven months pregnant with a single child . And Xuxu was already considered slim .
Old Master Lu’s gaze subconsciously landed to Xuxu’s belly, his face full of yearning .
He bade her over . “Come over quickly . ”
Xuxu sat down next to Old Master Lu . He looked at her with a softer gaze than when he was chatting with Mu Li and her husband . “Xuxu, can you bring me to visit that lady?”
Xuxu was speechless . The old man was too eager .
He not only came in person but also… dressed so formally!
She couldn’t find a reason to decline, so she nodded her head . “Sure, I’ll take you there right after I have my breakfast . ”
She stood up as she spoke .
“Go, go,” Old Master Lu said, waving his arm at Xuxu . “I’m not in a hurry . ”
As if! Eagerness was written all over his face .
Xuxu entered the dining room with Yan Rusheng . He smiled at her expense as she stuck her tongue out at him . “As expected, old people are the same . I’ve had enough . ”
Yan Rusheng just smiled .
“Mother, don’t leave with father for the hospital yet . I’ll bring Grandfather Lu to Zhou Shuang’s house first . Both of you can leave after you get my call,” Xuxu said to Mu Li after she exited the dining room . Then she looked at Old Master Lu and continued, “Grandfather Lu, let’s go . ”
“Xuxu, why don’t you give me her address and I’ll go there myself . I’ve tried asking Yinan but that rascal simply refused,” Old Master Lu said, angered at the mere mention of Lu Yinan . “I told him not to come home unless he brought the girl along . ”
Xuxu was speechless .
‘Doesn’t he know that you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink?’
“No worries, I’ll take you there,” Xuxu replied, smiling .
The old man nodded his head . “Sure, you just have to bring me to her doorstep, that would suffice . ”
Xuxu smiled and nodded . “Okay . ”
