Chapter 379: Chapter 379
Xu Qian had just come downstairs and saw Lu Tianming losing his temper. She couldn’t help but feel surprised because her husband had been in a good mood recently. She didn’t understand what was wrong today.
But as she walked into the living room, she immediately realized what was going on when she saw the news being broadcasted on TV.
Looking at the shattered cup on the floor and the spilled tea, suddenly she remembered the last time Song Qiao stepped forward to prevent their son from being harmed, resulting in an injury to her back. An indescribable emotion emerged in her heart, directed towards Song Qiao.
She called a maid to clean up the area, then sat next to Lu Tianming. Her gaze fell on an enlarged picture on the TV, showing Lu Jingchen and Song Qiao exchanging rings. Sighing, she turned to Lu Tianming and said, "The child is now grown up, and since he is married, even if you don’t like his wife, you are powerless. Do you still plan to forcefully drive the child away?"
Upon hearing his wife’s words, Lu Tianming did not show any sign of relenting but instead snorted coldly and said, "The only daughter-in-law recognized by me, Lu Tianming, is that child from the Yu Family. What’s this one? In all respects, she does not match up to our Lu Family. If Jingchen really wants to oppose me, I wouldn’t mind taking action."
Zuo Yuqing was once an example.
Even if his son liked Zuo Yuqing back then, in the end, he still drove her away using various methods. Although Lu Jingchen was heartbroken for a while, at least he was his son and eventually recovered.
Lu Tianming naturally felt that the measures he took against Zuo Yuqing would be no different when used on Song Qiao.
Xu Qian, looking at the husband she had shared a bed with for decades, suddenly felt he was a stranger. For a moment, she was even puzzled; did her husband really act in the best interests of their son’s happiness?
In today’s society, while it still emphasizes compatible matches, it also supports free love, doesn’t it?
Everyone is equal, and given their son’s status, finding a woman of equal standing is difficult. Although that little girl from the Yu Family is not bad, she could tell that the little girl did not actually like her son. Chapters first released on NovєlFіre.net
Two people without emotional attachment forming a family is not only a misfortune for themselves, but it also affects their future generations.
Thinking of her son’s happiness, Xu Qian continued, "But you also know what kind of a person our son is. If you pressure him now, what will you do if he doesn’t come home in the future?"
Though Lu Tianming seems strict, as they only have one son, this stubborn old man still holds a lot of expectations for his son.
He is so firm in his stance regarding his son’s marriage that he has not given in at all up to now.
Lu Tianming’s expression grew dark, but he could not deny that everything his wife had said was true. He was not unaware of his son’s temperament; it was precisely because he was so aware that he hadn’t gone to extremes on some issues.
Just like after he drove away his son’s girlfriend, Zuo Yuqing, back then, Lu Jingchen didn’t return to this home for many years and even if he did come back, he wouldn’t stay overnight.
This had led to an increasingly deteriorating relationship between father and son.
But the always dominant Lu Tianming still did not budge, directly speaking in a cold voice, "If I have to choose between Song Qiao and letting Zuo Yuqing marry Jingchen, I would rather pick the latter."
Xu Qian inwardly exclaimed, her husband’s thoughts were really beyond her predictability.
With all that’s happening now, between Zuo Yuqing and Song Qiao, he actually chose the former.
Could it be that he forgot how he was totally against Zuo Yuqing joining the Lu Family back then?
But Xu Qian didn’t say anything more, only sitting silently to the side.
After all, she knew that no matter what else she said now, it wouldn’t make a difference.
Having shared a bed with her husband for many years, she knew his stubborn nature better than anyone else; once he’d made up his mind, not even ten oxen could pull him back.
Song Qiao had been working all morning and felt uncomfortable all over, because whether in the office or visiting the restroom, she felt people watching her in a strange way.
More importantly, some colleagues who hadn’t gotten along well with her or even had some conflicts with her, surprisingly greeted her with smiles, making her so uncomfortable she lost count of how many goosebumps she had.
Finally, when work was over, Lu An’an because her artist had an advertisement to shoot, wasn’t in the company either.
Just as she had packed her things, her phone rang. Pulling it out, it was an unknown number, but she still slid to answer and put it to her ear, "Hello, this is me!"
"Miss Song, hello, I’m the butler of the Lu Family," came a voice from the other end of the phone.
Song Qiao paused, not expecting it to be the butler of the Lu Family calling her, she frowned slightly and asked, "May I ask what is the matter?"
The person on the other side spoke in a rather gentle tone, explaining directly, "It’s , our master would like to meet Miss Song, I wonder if you are available now?"
