Chapter 337 Lu Jingxun's Thoughts
She looked at Yu Xiuying and her elder sister blankly, and finally her eyes fell on Lu Jingxun.
Seeing that Lu Shian didn't say anything, Yu Xiuying said, "It was just his leg that was bitten by the wolf. There's nothing else wrong with him."
"Bitten by a wolf? How could you be bitten by a wolf? How could you be someone's mother? How could you let Shi'an go to such a dangerous place?"
Yu Xiuying lowered her head in shame: "This matter..."
Lu Shian was a little displeased. How could Lu Jingxun, the father, dare to question Yu Xiuying, "What are you doing here?"
"I heard you were injured, so I rushed here in a hurry. Oh... it's my fault. I thought you and your mother would be happy here, so I let you and your daughter live here. I didn't expect you to be injured. In this case, I can't let you and your daughter continue to live here."
Lu Jingxun righteously ordered Yu Xiuying: "Xiuying, go pack your things quickly, and move back to the Marquis' Mansion today."
Lu Shian interrupted him: "Don't worry, you heard, where did you hear it?"
Lu Jingxun was stunned: "Does it matter who told you that? What matters is that you are injured now. Dad didn't have the ability to protect you before. Although Dad still doesn't have much ability now, I am willing to do my best to protect you."
Lu Shian, who had sat up, slowly lay back down: "Go back, I want to sleep for a while."
Seeing her being so indifferent to Lu Jingxun, Yu Xiuying poked Lu Shian in the quilt and said, "You kid, you just woke up, what kind of sleep are you having now?"
Lu Shian simply closed his eyes and did not answer, and the room suddenly fell into awkwardness.
Although Yu Xiuying didn't want to go back to the Marquis' Mansion, she didn't want to have a falling out with Lu Jingxun: "This child must have taken the medicine. The medicine that Nanxing prescribed for her made her sleepy."
"It's okay, it's okay. Xiuying, pack your things first. Forget it. Don't pack at all. The mansion has everything. You can just go back."
Yu Xiuying didn't dare to make the decision on her own. She looked at Lu Xianchun for advice, and Lu Xianchun forced a smile: "Dad, we live well here, so we won't go back."
"You're not going back? How can you not go back? You are the daughters of the Marquis' Mansion, how can you live outside forever?"
Lu Jingxun was very emotional, as if it was a wrong decision for Yu Xiuying and her daughter not to go back with him.
Yu Xiuying felt very uncomfortable about not being able to go back, but thinking that her daughters must have their reasons for saying so, she decided to stand with her daughters.
"Shi'an is still injured and it's really not suitable for him to move around. Let's just stay here for the time being."
"No, you have lived outside for long enough. It's time to go back. Besides, it's almost the end of the year. Do you still want to stay outside?"
Lu Shian still had his eyes closed on the bed: "Dad, what you said is not right. This is the house we bought. It is our home. How can you say we are staying outside?"
Lu Jingxun was filled with grief and indignation: "Shi'an, what are you talking about? You are my child, my home is your home, how can this be considered your home? This is at most your private residence."
"Dad, why did you come to pick me up? Do you dare to tell me?" Lu Shi'an sat up and stared at Lu Jingxun.
Lu Jingxun felt inexplicably guilty when she stared at him.
"What are you talking about? I asked you to move back because I felt sorry for your injury. I hope you can recover well in the Marquis' Mansion."
"really?"
"I'm your father, how can you doubt your father?"
"If this injury wasn't caused by the Second Prince, would you have come?"
Yu Xiuying suddenly realized, and she looked at Lu Jingxun in a daze.
Lawrence Lu didn’t think she had done anything wrong at all, but instead looked proud: “You are worthy of being my Lawrence Lu’s daughter. It’s true that I can’t hide anything from you. Since you know everything, I’ll tell you straight away.”
"The Imperial Concubine gave you many gifts and also told you to take good care of your injuries. When you are well, she will invite you to the palace. My dear daughter, you saved the Second Prince. You are his benefactor. Even the Imperial Concubine treats you so well. Your future is immeasurable."
Yu Xiuying's heart grew colder: "You didn't come here because you were worried about Shi'an's injury, but because of the Imperial Concubine!"
Yu Xiuying said it bluntly. Lu Jingxun was a little unhappy, but he still patiently explained: "What's the difference? If Shi'an is not my daughter, what does it have to do with me even if she dies?"
"If I hadn't been injured because of the Second Prince, the Crown Prince wouldn't have come over to pretend to be a father and daughter with me."
"Shi'an, how can you say that? Has Dad treated you badly? Have you forgotten that Dad used to go up the mountain to pick fruits and hide them secretly, and then give them to you to eat. Have you forgotten all this?"
"Of course I haven't forgotten. I also haven't forgotten that my honest and simple father is called Ye Zhantao, not the son of the Marquis's mansion."
"You are just making excuses. I am Ye Zhantao and the heir of the Marquisate. How can I not be your father?"
Lu Shian didn't want to listen to his sophistry, so he turned his head and ignored him.
Lu Jingxun turned to look at Yu Xiuying and said, "Xiuying, please help me persuade Shi'an. She can't be compared with before. She is the one favored by the imperial concubine. She must not act willfully."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. You don't have to worry about my affairs. I can handle them myself."
"What are you talking about, kid? I'm your father, how could I not make plans for your future? If you live here, you're just a daughter of the Lu family, but if you live in the Marquis' Mansion, you're the lady of the Marquis' Mansion. No one can look down on you when you go out in the future. Don't you understand this principle?"
"What about the young lady of the Marquis' Mansion? I don't care about her. You should go back and don't disturb my rest."
"You kid..."
Lu Xianchun stepped forward and grabbed Lu Jingxun's sleeve: "Dad, don't be angry. Shi'an's temper is just like this. Let's go out first. The most important thing now is to let her have a good rest. As for other things, it won't be too late to talk about it after her injury is healed."
Lu Jingxun glanced at the stubborn Lu Shian and could only give up.
"Well, you're the eldest sister, you should try to persuade her and not let her act on impulse."
Lu Xianchun nodded in agreement and then sent Lu Jingxun away.
Yu Xiuying sat on the bed gloomily: "Shi'an, are we really not going back to the Marquis' Mansion?"
"Mom, do you want to go back?"
Yu Xiuying's eyes flashed with hope, then dimmed again: "I really went too far last time. Now I think even if I go back, I'm afraid I will feel uncomfortable."
And her mother-in-law in the Marquis's Mansion probably won't let her go easily.
Lu Shian moved her body. She felt uncomfortable all over after only two days of lying in bed.
"Mom, if it wasn't for the Second Prince, if it wasn't for the Imperial Concubine, do you think Dad would take us back?"
Yu Xiuying opened her mouth, but in the end said nothing.
