Xia Wan didn’t finish her sentence, but Old Master Lu understood.
It was just that her grandmother did not expect that the marriage she despised was actually the powerful family she wanted the most.
Old Master Lu felt that it was not worth it for Xia Wan and said, “No matter what the process is, since this marriage has fallen on you in the end, it’s indeed unfair for your grandmother to want it back for your cousin. Our Lu family only recognizes you as our granddaughter-in- law.”
“But since you don’t like my grandson, I won’t make it difficult for you. If I were a girl, I wouldn’t like him either.”
Old Master Lu wanted to say more, but Lu Jing gave him a look, and Old Master Lu stopped talking.
Old Master Lu smiled and said, “Since Wanwan is here, she must stay at our house for dinner. You can’t refuse this.”
This time, Xia Wan did not say anything.
When it was time for dinner, Lu Lin and Yang Chao were already at the dining table. Lu Lin’s father did not return home for dinner because he was busy with business. Everyone was used to this and did not ask for much.
Lu Lin’s mother, Mrs. Lu, had an average relationship with Old Master Lu. She had also left early to live, so she did not specially come over for dinner.
Madam Lu must have heard the news that Xia Wan had come to the Lu family’s old residence as a guest.
However, she didn’t care about Xia Wan’s identity because of her selfishness.
She felt that the child from the countryside came over just to ask for benefits.
In addition, Madam Lu had seen Xia Ru before and could see clearly that Xia Ru was a woman who did not love herself and worshiped money.
This time, Xia Wan and Xia Ru were relatives. Madam Lu felt that the two of them were the same kind of people and looked down on them.
Old Master Lu was a little unhappy that Madam Lu did not come, but he did not say anything in the end.
Lu Jing felt a little lucky. If Mrs. Lu had come, the meal would not have been so peaceful.
During this period, Old Master Lu kept adding more dishes for Xia Wan to eat.
Lu Lin felt a little upset. Usually, when he ate at his grandfather’s place, his grandfather would always have a stern face and scold him every time he ate.
But now, his grandfather was looking at Xia Wan lovingly. It was a completely different attitude from when he was looking at him.
Lu Lin couldn’t help but pout. “Grandpa, you’re too biased. I’m your grandson. Xia Wan is just the granddaughter of your former comrade. Why are you siding with her?”
Old Master Lu looked at him coldly. “Do you need me to repeat what you did back then in front of the guests?”
The so-called guest, Yang Chao, was quietly pricking up his ears, trying to hear something.
When he was at the police station, he had already felt that there was something wrong between Xia Wan and Lu Lin. There must be some conflict between the two of them.
It was only when they arrived at the Lu family’s old mansion that Yang Chao realized that Xia Wan was not only related to Lu Lin but also to the entire Lu family.
He was very curious but did not dare to ask. As a result, he felt very uncomfortable.
Lu Jing tried to smooth things over. “Alright, let’s just eat. Lu Lin, don’t say anything more to make your grandfather angry.”
Lu Lin lowered his head unwillingly and dug into the rice in his bowl.
After the meal, Old Master Lu asked Xia Wan to go to the garden with him. He did not let anyone else accompany him.
Xia Wan wrote down the prescription for Old Master Lu and the supplements he needed on a piece of paper and secretly gave it to Lu Jing. She did not let Lu Lin know about this.
Xia Wan and Old Master Lu walked to a more secluded place. Old Master Lu then asked, “Wanwan, ever since we came here, you’ve been checking my body first. It seems casual, but it also seems like you’re worried. Do you know something?”
Xia Wan was surprised by Old Master Lu’s sensitivity.
She thought that she had hidden it better, but Old Master Lu still saw through it.
She didn’t know how to explain this to Old Master Lu. She couldn’t tell him that she knew that Old Master Lu would die in the next three years because she was reborn. The Lu family’s reputation would be completely ruined by Lu Lin.
Xia Wan hesitated for a moment before saying, “Originally, the Lu family’s matters had nothing to do with me. However, Grandpa Lu, you and my grandfather were friends back then..”
