Chapter 63 – The sooner that he could get rid of this presumptuous woman, the better (2)
Ye Qing had spent the night tossing and turning as she tried to figure out a way to switch back with Ye Zhen. It was the perfect time to make the switch, and she had temporarily lost her self-control because she was angry that Lin Zhan had interrupted her.
Ye Zhe tugged on Ye Qing’s sleeve and whispered, “Let’s go change.”
Ye Qing didn’t have the time to deal with Lin Zhan. Pulling Ye Zhen along, they sneakily headed towards Ye Qing’s room.
But, when they got to top of the second floor’s staircase, the old butler called out to stop them.
“Miss Ye, good morning. Young Master sent me to bring you to the dining room for breakfast.”
Ye Zhen smiled and said, “I’m going back to my room to change. I’ll be right down.”
The old butler was smiling as he looked at Ye Zhen. “Miss Ye, I’m sorry. Young Master said your clothes are too old fashion. He ordered us to throw out all of your clothes. Your new clothes is expected to be delivered here at 8PM.”
… Was there something mentally wrong with Lu Beichuan?
There was nothing they could do. Their retreat had been cut off. They could only follow the old butler to the dining room to eat breakfast.
Lu Shaoren rushed past them on the stairs. He shot a look at Lin Zhan and anxiously said, “Lin Zhan, follow me, we have to go somewhere.”
It seemed as if something big had happened.
Lin Zhan instinctively looked towards Ye Zhen. A moment later, he left with Lu Shaoren.
After those two left, Mother Lu was looking very pleased as she ladled out congee. Just as Mother Lu was about to gesture for them to sit down, she looked at them for a long time and couldn’t distinguish the two sisters.
“I really can’t tell the two of you apart.” After saying this, with a smiling face, she teased her son,” Beichuan, you should be able to recognize your own wife, right?”
Lu Beichuan looked at Ye Zhen. “Of course.”
Under Lu Beichuan’s unwavering gaze, Ye Zhen could only sit down next to him. She felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles.
Lu Beichuan ladled out a bowl of chicken congee and placed it in front of Ye Zhen. “Didn’t you say yesterday that your parents are anxious to see your sister? I’ll have the chauffeur drive her back home after breakfast.”
After saying this, he coldly looked at Ye Qing.
Ye Qing resentfully sat down in the guest’s chair and forced herself to smile. “I already called my parents last night. I want to stay here for a few days and take this opportunity to spend more time with my sister.”
Ye Zhen went along with Ye Qing’s words. Smilingly, Ye Zhen said, “We haven’t seen each other in so long. So, could you allow my older… Zhenzhen to stay here for a few days.”
“Are you saying this because you miss your younger sister or because she doesn’t want to leave her boyfriend?” Mother Lu coldly said, “Qingqing, don’t involve yourself in this. Your younger sister and Lin Zhan should make the responsible decision by going back to your parents’ home and talking it out with them.”
Mother Lu had totally misunderstood why “Ye Zhen” want to stay here.
Lu Beichuan peeled a hard boiled egg for Ye Zhen. “Mom is right. It would be best for Lin Zhan and your younger sister to resolve their relationship status with your parents.”
Ye Qing was very anxious. Right now, the normally resourceful her couldn’t think of any words to say to convince them to let her stay.
Under Mother Lu’s watchful eyes, Ye Zhen could only accept the egg that Lu Beichuan had peeled for her. She removed the yolk part and left it on a small plate. After thinking it over, she said, “It’ll be hard to talk this out with our parents. Zhenzhen and I will go home together, so we can work together to persuade our parents. We’ll try our best.”
Lu Beichuan’s expression slightly sunk, but he remained silent.
Hearing these words, Ye Qing stopped worrying. She smiled and said, “Thank you, older sister.”
“… Sure.” Wow, Ye Qing had so easily called her older sister.
Mother Lu suddenly thought of something and said, “No, not today. Qingqing, you can’t leave the villa today.”
