Chapter 550: Chapter 550: There’s Already a Clue About the Person Behind It
Lu Yichen pointed to the items on the table, "These are from Auntie for Ran Ran and Hao Hao. Take care of them."
As they were speaking, Lu Yixuan came out of the study, "Yichen, Dad is calling you into the study."
Lu Yichen said to Wang Xiaoxin, "Sister-in-law, I’ll go over first."
Cui Yueyue behind them spoke discontentedly, "Mom, look, they simply don’t take us seriously at all."
Turning around, Wang Xiaoxin said, "It’s the New Year, don’t make yourself uncomfortable."
Geng Mingli pushed Cui Yueyue slightly, "Your sister-in-law is right. There’s no need to make trouble out of nothing. Can’t you just be peaceful for once?"
Cui Yueyue said unhappily, "Mom, whose mother are you anyway?"
Geng Mingli couldn’t be bothered with her daughter who seemed to have water in her brain. No matter how she was taught, she never changed, and now Geng had given up and let her be.
Lu Yiting came down from upstairs and walked over to Wang Xiaoxin, "Sister-in-law, is my second brother back?"
Wang Xiaoxin smiled, "Yes, he’s back and Dad called him to the study."
She then added, "Yiting, your sister-in-law bought you a coat, it’s in that big bag over there. Try it on later."
Lu Yiting smiled, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Wang Xiaoxin did feel very fond of her little sister-in-law. She had a close relationship with her two brothers and was respectful and affectionate towards her, the sister-in-law. That’s why over the years, Wang occasionally bought goodies for her.
No matter how good a stepmother is, she’s not the real mother. She has her own daughter and might not think of everything for her stepchild, so Wang, as the eldest sister-in-law, should look out for Yiting more so she wouldn’t lack anything compared to others.
The father and sons seated themselves in the study. Lu Xinyi spoke, "We have some leads on the person behind this. You all need to be careful recently, especially Yixuan. The children can’t be left unattended; I’m afraid they might become desperate and target the kids."
Lu Yichen asked, "Dad, let me handle this matter. With my current identity, I can investigate without arousing suspicion."
Lu Xinyi replied, "No, you’ve only recently returned to the Capital City. I will arrange for someone to keep an eye on it. I believe they are close to making another move."
Lu Yixuan inquired, "Dad, what exactly are they looking for? We don’t have anything they should be concerned about."
Lu Xinyi answered, "According to our intel, they seem to be searching for some kind of key, but it’s not clear which key."
After a long conversation in the study, the three men came out. Lu Yiting stood up and walked over to them, "Big Brother, Second Brother."
Seeing his sister, Lu Yichen was reminded of something. He found his bag and took out two bottles of skin cream, handing them to his sister-in-law and sister.
He said, "Take these, they’re especially moisturizing, even better than the ones sold in the department stores. I asked specifically for you."
Lu Yiting smiled, "Thank you, Second Brother."
Wang Xiaoxin was surprised that her brother-in-law had also prepared something for her and smiled, "Thank you, Yichen."
Lu Yixuan, standing at the back, said, "Nephew and niece got snacks, your sister-in-law and sister got gifts, but do I, the Big Brother, get nothing?"
Lu Yichen, with a straight face, took out two more bottles of skin cream from his bag, "Here, don’t say I play favorites."
Seeing that the item was the same as what his wife received, Lu Yixuan complained jokingly, "Are you trying to brush me off?"
Lu Yichen responded, "Who’s brushing you off? This is good stuff. Look at my face, then look at yours. You think you can get this whenever you want?"
After handing one of the bottles to his older brother, he gave the other to his father, who had just emerged from the study.
He then added, "Use it yourself, don’t give it away."
Once Lu Yichen hung his bag back up, Wang Xiaoxin put away the items and took Lu Yiting to the kitchen to help, while the three men sat entertaining the two children.
Lu Yichen handed out two red envelopes to his nephew and niece, "Here, this is your New Year’s money from your Second Uncle."
The children stood properly and glanced at their dad. Seeing Lu Yixuan nod, they accepted it, "Thank you, Second Uncle."
As the cooking was almost finished in the kitchen, Cui Jianhua finally came downstairs, "Dad, Big Brother, Second Brother, Happy New Year."
Lu Yixuan gestured, "Come over and sit."
