Chapter 27: Intimate Couple
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Soon a sports car stopped in front of them.
A pair of blue-eyed, blond-haired brothers who looked very alike got out of the car.
They saw Lu Yaohua and Tang Wenyi holding hands, looking very intimate.
Simultaneously, they gazed in admiration for the couple.
“Mr. Lu and Mdm. Tang, right?”
As the elder brother, Ryan spoke first.
Faking calmness, Lu Yaohua said, “You must be Mr. Ryan?”
He looked at the shorter man next to him and smiled. “And this is Mr. Rick?”
Rick grinned and whistled. He hugged Lu Yaohua and Tang Wenyi and said, “You two are really a match made in heaven!”
Tang Wenyi loved hearing that. She snuggled into Lu Yaohua’s arms coyly.
Lu Yaohua said embarrassedly, “Sorry, my wife is a little timid.”
The Victor brothers, who had no idea what was going on, instantly had an even better impression of them.
If Lu Ming had witnessed this scene, he would be so disgusted that he would lose his appetite.
Tang Wenyi was not timid.
If she was timid, no one in this world could be considered bold.
A timid person would not have done heartless things.
The bottom line was, it was just a pretense.
Nobody would have thought that such a gorgeous appearance belied a vile heart.
Lu Yaohua and Tang Wenyi ushered the two brothers to a spacious table by the window.
The tables in the hall were separated by soundproof partitions. The privacy measures were very good as conversations at one table could not be heard at another.
The dishes had been selected when the reservation was made.
When they arrived, all the dishes were served.
In order to please the palate of the Victor brothers, Lu Yaohua and Tang Wenyi had specially ordered cooked food.
Tang Wenyi cut a piece of steak with a silver knife and fed it to Lu Yaohua.
Lu Yaohua swallowed the food in satisfaction.
The waiter poured red wine for the three of them. When he was about to pour the wine for Tang Wenyi, Lu Yaohua stopped him. “Sorry, my wife is allergic to red wine, so you don’t have to pour for her.”
The waiter nodded and left.
He felt a little baffled. “There is red wine in the steak, so why is she eating it?” he wondered.
“Can it be that the allergy symptoms come in waves?”
Tang Wenyi had no idea that her allergies had been disclosed.
She was eating her imported steak with no qualms.
“Wenyi.”
Lu Yaohua said affectionately.
Tang Wenyi felt as if she was transported back to the time when she was passionately in love with him. She turned around and blushed. “What is it, Yaohua?”
Lu Yaohua picked up a napkin and gently wiped the corner of her mouth. “You really don’t care about your image when you see food. This isn’t home.”
Then he turned around and said sincerely, “I’m sorry, my wife is like this.”
The Victor brothers looked at each other.
Rick said, “Your wife is really cute! Does she love food?”
Lu Yaohua nodded readily. “She likes to snack in between times. I don’t even know how she got such a good appetite.”
“But your wife has maintained a good figure.”
Ryan marveled.
Tang Wenyi panicked, but she maintained a smile on her face and said, “I always go to the gym after eating. I don’t want to become a fatty.”
In reality, she was too lazy to exercise, and in order to maintain her figure, she sometimes skipped her meals.
She would never eat snacks because she hated junk food.
She seemed to have thought of something and said coyly, “I used to be even slimmer before I was with Yaohua. It was his fault that I packed on the extra pounds.”
Rick smiled and asked, “Both of you must be very happy, right?”
Tang Wenyi nodded. “We have a cute son. I remember that our son put himself in a gift box as a big birthday surprise for Yaohua!”
Lu Ze had indeed done this before, but his ultimate goal was to get Lu Yaohua to pay for something that he liked. All these years, he had only given that one birthday present.
“Wow, that’s really interesting!”
Ryan said cheerfully.
Lu Yaohua wiped the sweat off his forehead. If it wasn’t to amuse the Victor brothers, it would not be necessary to make up stories.
The two of them had received information that the Victor brothers came from a traditional American Christian family. Not only could they not eat raw or bloody food, they also put a premium on family values and family ties.
So Lu Yaohua and Tang Wenyi had to appear more affectionate than usual.
It was all to climb the ladder!
He secretly encouraged himself. As long as he could endure this moment, it would be over soon!
“Speaking of which, that kid of mine only knew how to bum around all day. I thought that he’d never amount to anything. In the end, he surprised us by visiting my mother-in-law first thing in the morning when she was suddenly hospitalized.”
He paused for a moment before continuing. “When we arrived at the hospital, he was busy caring for his grandma. At that time, we even said that the devil incarnate at home was filial at last.”
Of course, the story was made up—he was actually the mastermind of the incident.
Back then, he wanted to please his parents-in-law. That was why he went to the hospital before dawn when he found out that his mother-in-law was seriously ill.
The more Rick looked at them, the more pleased he was. He said, “There’s a saying in China that goes, ‘The little crow and the little lamb are grateful for their nurturing.’ If we don’t value family, then aren’t we worse than animals?”
“That’s right, that’s why we particularly value the character of our business partners,” Ryan added.
Unbeknown to them, all of this was caught on camera.
Lu Ming propped his chin as he fixed his eyes on the video.
He recalled how his mother had also been so intimate with Lu Yaohua a long time ago.
One time, he and his mother did not have food for two days. They would not be able to sustain starvation any longer.
Hence, he had no choice but to look for Lu Yaohua. He saw his mother kneeling on the ground and begging him.
But Lu Yaohua kicked his mother away impatiently and left.
He would never forget it.
In the end, they managed to survive with the help of a kindhearted passer-by.
“Judging by Lu Yaohua’s demeanor now, he must have forgotten about it,” Lu Ming thought.
He snorted. He could understand that one should constantly strive to make progress.
However, even though there was a better way to do that, Lu Yaohua had chosen the worst possible way.
He wanted to see the downfall of Lu Yaohua.
