Chapter 158: Chapter 158: Relief!

"Help! Aunt, help!" Tu Yingying cried as she rolled on the ground, but Jiu Jiu still didn’t let her go.

After a while, he turned his head to look at Ji Niandong, "Sister Tongtong, I avenged you!"

Ji Niandong blinked and said softly, "Alright, you’ve scared Miss Tu to tears!"

"Sister Tongtong isn’t angry anymore?" Lu Sinian asked, his wide eyes appearing extremely innocent.

Lu Beichen chuckled softly, and Ji Niandong glanced at him, feeling that both father and son were too mischievous. She shook her head, "I’m not angry anymore, quickly let Jiu Jiu spare Miss Tu!"

Only then did Lu Sinian stop, placing his hands on his hips and giving a light cough, "Alright Jiu Jiu, come over here!"

Only then did the little Akita wag its tail and walk over, licking Lu Sinian twice, then obediently snuggling into his arms.

Lu Sinian wiped his face with his hand and said with disdain, "You’ve wiped Aunt Tu’s powder all over my face, it smells terrible!"

Only then did Zhang Huiqin walk over to pull Tu Yingying up. Her makeup was completely ruined, her hair a disheveled mess, and her smudged eye makeup turned into panda eyes. The originally pale, haggard face was now completely messed up!

The powder might have indeed been smeared onto Lu Sinian’s face!

Tu Yingying pushed Zhang Huiqin aside and threw herself into Tu Meijiao’s arms, crying, "Aunt, you have to stand up for me!"

How to stand up for her?

Lu Sinian was the little tyrant of the family, how could they argue with a child?!

The key was that this child was dearly loved by Lu Beichen and the apple of Lu Qingyuan’s eye!

Tu Meijiao bit her lower lip and took a deep breath, "Yingying is frightened, let’s help her back to her room to rest!"

Li Siru quickly stepped forward to support her, but Tu Meijiao pushed her away.

After taking only a few steps, they heard Lu Beichen faintly say, "Hold on!"

They were startled and stopped, not daring to turn their heads as they listened to Lu Beichen’s next words, "A family shouldn’t hold grudges, but apologizing when wrong is the most basic etiquette!"

He spoke lightly, yet with an undeniable authority, Tu Yingying suddenly turned her head, unwillingly staring at Tu Meijiao.

Ji Niandong gently pulled Lu Beichen’s hand and said softly, "Let it go!"

Lu Beichen gave her a smile, "Mrs. Lu, with your magnanimity, your husband will cherish you even more!"

He teased in a serious tone, making Tu Meijiao even more uneasy. She steeled herself and pulled Tu Yingying to the front of the sofa, forcing a smile, "Beichen, Yingying is still young and ignorant. Besides, she’s too concerned about you; please don’t hold it against her! Yingying, apologize to her!"

"Call her Second Sister-in-law!" Lu Beichen responded flatly, yet it implicitly embarrassed Tu Meijiao. She kept referring to "her," refusing to acknowledge Ji Niandong’s identity, yet was now forced to do so!

Tu Yingying bit her lip tightly, her fingers digging into her palm, tears of grievance welling up in her eyes, but she could only say, "Second Sister-in-law, I’m sorry!"

Her voice trembled, and her tightly pressed lips indicated her reluctance.

"It’s okay!" Ji Niandong replied, not very formally polite, but merely out of courtesy, "You should apologize to Nian Nian the most!"

Exactly! If it weren’t for her actions to harm Nian Nian, how could Little Jiu Jiu have suddenly pounced?!

Everyone had overlooked this issue, yet that woman viciously held onto it!

Hearing Ji Niandong so concerned about him, Lu Sinian felt a rush of joy, quickly showing an expression of smug pride!

"Nian Nian, I’m sorry!" Tu Yingying gritted her teeth!

"Hmph!" The little bun turned his face away in direct disdain!

Only then did Tu Meijiao, with a sense of grievance, drag Tu Yingying away, their family following behind.

Ji Niandong reached out and held Lu Beichen’s hand, feeling utterly satisfied.

Seeing them so affectionate, Zhang Huiqin gave a knowing smile, helping Lu Qingyuan to sit beside her, and gently said, "Beichen’s judgment has never been wrong; Tongtong is indeed a good girl!"

One could hear the underlying meaning in her words, advocating for family harmony and subtly advising Lu Beichen to downplay the issue, indeed a wise and understanding girl!

Lu Qingyuan couldn’t help but nod in agreement.

Lu Sinian said proudly, "Of course my Sister Tongtong is the best!" Then he snorted, "Clearly, I found her first, but Mr. Lu took her away!"
