Chapter 455

The vehicle slowly came to a stop in the yard.

Lin Xiao got out of the car and looked at the familiar house, feeling an indescribable sense of peace and warmth in her heart.

Although this was only her second time visiting this house.

However, although she never returned during those three years, their interactions never ceased.

Even during the Spring Festival when she was abroad for exchanges, Lu's mother specially flew here to spend the New Year with her.

During that time, we didn't meet in person, but we almost never stopped talking on the phone or video chatting.

In fact, Lu's parents took care of her much more than they did of their son, Lu Chengshen.

Lu Chengshen took the suitcase off the car, turned around and went back, handing the gift he had bought to Lin Xiao.

"Here, take these. Remember to give them to my mom later; she'll be very happy."

Lin Xiao looked at the gift that the other party had specially prepared in her hand, and her expression was a mix of laughter and tears.

"I didn't come back empty-handed. Why would you spend so much money buying so many things for the family?"

"Besides...am I really that rude?"

Lu Chengshen carried her luggage and walked home, his smile never fading.

"That's not entirely true, but who doesn't know that you're such a busy person that all you have on your mind right now is work? I'll have to keep a close eye on you and make up for any things you might have missed."

Lin Xiao rolled her eyes at him speechlessly, but she had to admit in her heart that Lu Chengshen was indeed very considerate.

I've thought of almost every possible place.

As the two of them pushed open the door and stepped into the hall, they saw someone standing at the entrance of the living room, looking excited as they came to greet them.

With a smile, Lu's mother pulled Lin Xiaozai around and looked her over carefully, but then frowned slightly in disapproval.

"You've lost weight and gotten darker! Have you been working yourself to death again? I knew it, you kids just don't know how to treat yourselves better."

Upon hearing his wife's words, Mr. Lu couldn't help but look up from the tablet in his hands and retort.

“You can’t say that. The children are at the age where they should be building their careers. Don’t you think about how you worked tirelessly every day when you started your own business? If you hadn’t ended up in the hospital, you would be where you are now…” Lu’s mother hugged Lin Xiao and glared back at her without any politeness.

Mr. Lu shrugged and silently shut his mouth.

But when he lowered his head, he was still muttering to himself reluctantly.

"It's a classic case of 'the magistrate is allowed to set fires, but the common people are forbidden to light lamps.' When they did these things, how could they not have thought that one day they would be ridiculed for it?!"

He shook his head speechlessly, but still said, "Xiaoxiao, don't listen to your mother's nonsense. Just do what you think is right. Your mother is only free now because she's handed over all her work to the eldest son. Otherwise, do you think she would still have the energy to say these kinds of things every day?"

Lin Xiao was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this very kind instruction.

However, he nodded very quickly, "I know."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Lu's mother, who was standing next to her, cover her mouth and chuckle.

However, she still pointed at her old man with a look of disdain on her face.

"Don't listen to your dad's bad words about me, I'm perfectly healthy!"

"Besides, if he hadn't been distracted while driving and caused the accident, how would I have ended up in the hospital?"

As they were talking, he pulled Lin Xiao upstairs.

Lu Chengshen stood to the side, looked at the luggage in his hands, then at Lin Xiao who was not turning her head, and could only look at his father on the sofa with a resentful expression.

"Dad, look at Mom!"

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and carry the things upstairs, and tell them to come down for dinner."

"Aunt Li has already prepared the meal. Hurry up and eat something so that Xiaoxiao can get some rest. She's been on the plane for over twenty hours."

After saying that, he quickly lowered his head again.

As for other things... just ignore them.

After all, a son is never as important as a wife!
