Chapter 14

Yue Lingchen glanced at it and took it. He quickly said, “I still have some things to deal with here. I’ll be back in an hour.”

Yue Lingchen hung up the phone and took a bite of the octopus roast. Surprisingly, it was a little delicious. The children of the Yue family were not allowed to eat outside food before they reached adulthood. Yue Lingchen had broken the rules for Yue Xin today.

“Yue Xin, let’s go home in an hour.”

“Oh, oh, big brother, what’s that? I want to try it.”

Yue Lingchen looked in the direction she was pointing at. “I don’t know.”

Yue Xin’s face was filled with the words, “How can you not know when you’re so powerful?” However, she didn’t ask. Instead, she ran over and asked the boss, “Boss, what’s this?”

The boss: “This is a milk-covered glutinous rice ball.”

Yue Xin said, “Brother, this is called a milk-covered glutinous rice ball.”

Yue Lingchen nodded. He could hear it, so there was no need to repeat it.

Yue Xin bought two sets, one for herself and one for Yue Lingchen.

After Yue Lingchen ate it, he realized that it was just glutinous rice balls wrapped in something like cream. However, when he saw that Yue Xin was eating happily, he didn’t say anything and silently called to cancel the afternoon’s schedule. He ate with Yue Xin for an entire hour. Before he went home, he wished Yue Xin well. “Don’t say a word or show any expression when you get home. Do you understand?”

Based on the principle of listening to whoever bought delicious food for her, Yue Xin nodded vigorously. “Got it, Big Brother!”

Seeing that she was so obedient, Yue Lingchen rubbed her hair and suddenly felt that having a younger sister was not bad. “You’re so obedient.”

Hence, when Yue Xin returned home, she went from a happy glutton to an expressionless and gloomy girl.

Yue Lingchen held her hand and entered the living room. The three people from the Lu family were still here, and so were his parents. When they saw Yue Xin, they stood up to welcome her.

Fang Jing hugged Yue Xin and started crying. “Mommy’s little baby, it’s all Mommy’s fault for not protecting you well.”

Yue Bin was beside her. Although he did not carry her up, his expression seemed to be very sad.

Lu Yu was pushed forward by his parents. He bowed and apologized to the expressionless Yue Xin. “I’m sorry.”

Yue Xin didn’t even blink. Hehe, he came with an apology. At this moment, she really wanted to avoid Lu Yu and comfort her crying mother. For example, she wanted to tell her that she wasn’t her biological daughter and that she didn’t have to be so sad. However, she promised Yue Lingchen that she wouldn’t say a word, so she couldn’t speak. Moreover, when Yue Xin found out her identity on the first day, she tried to tell others, but she couldn’t. Once she opened her mouth, she would lose the ability to speak. After trying a few times, she gave up.

Lu Yu didn’t get Yue Xin’s forgiveness, so he didn’t get up. He kept bending over. Yue Lingchen knew that Yue Xin couldn’t speak, so he didn’t say anything. It was only when Yue Bin saw that Lu Yu’s body was trembling that he asked him to get up.

“Xinxin, what’s wrong? Can you say something to Mommy? Don’t scare Mommy,” Fang Jing cried and asked when she saw that her daughter was silent.

Yue Lingchen explained, “Mom, after I took Yue Xin away from school, she hasn’t said a word. Maybe she’s been traumatized. Don’t force her.”

Hearing this, Fang Jing cried even harder.

Lu Yu’s parents also realized the severity of this matter. Of course, they also found an opportunity. The two of them looked at each other and instantly reached a consensus. They immediately pushed Lu Yu. “Sister Fang, let’s not agitate Xiao Xin in this situation. Don’t ask her questions first. I think we should let Lu Yu give it a try. Lu Yu is the same age as her and is usually close to her. Who knows, we might be able to get her to talk?”

Their intentions were clear. They wanted to use Lu Yu to completely bind the Yue Family. If Yue Xin recovered because of Lu Yu, they could become the Yue Family’s benefactors.

Yue Lingchen, who had been silent all this while, spoke up. “You’re Lu Yu? My secretary told me something just now. Every morning when you go to school, you take all the money from Yue Xin. When you buy food for Yue Xin in the afternoon, you deliberately leave the food in the canteen for a long time. When you hear someone badmouth Yue Xin, you don’t retort. You even hint to your fangirls to give them ideas. Explain these things.”

Hearing this, the expressions of everyone except Yue Xin changed.

Lu Yu didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Yue Xin. He knew that no matter what he did, Yue Xin would protect him because Yue Xin liked him. Yue Xin owed him this. He just liked to see Yue Xin happy because of him. This was the price Yue Xin should pay for forcefully tying him to her. But to Lu Yu’s surprise, Yue Xin didn’t say a word this time. She didn’t take all the blame for him like before. She didn’t even look at him as if all of this had nothing to do with her.
