Chapter 719: Chapter 719: Leave This Matter to Me
Don’t be fooled by Chief Lu’s gentle demeanor; he has quite a temper, and Lu Yuying truly wouldn’t dare act up in front of her dad.
Watching his daughter walk away, Chief Lu glanced at the courtyard of the Vice Factory Director Huo’s house, a shadow flitted across his eyes, then he quickly looked away and strode off.
He naturally understood his own daughter’s thoughts, but Vice Factory Director Huo is not someone their family can handle, especially since Huo already has a fiancée, a woman of striking beauty, and it’s obvious to him that it’s a lost cause.
Thinking about the people he met a few days ago, he couldn’t help but feel irritated.
Although Huo Jiayuan didn’t know what was going on between Lu Yuying and their Fourth Brother, she felt this woman had quite the nerve, even daring to shamelessly claim to be Fourth Sister-in-law’s friend, as if taking her for a fool: "Fourth Sister-in-law, what’s the deal with that Lu Yuying?"
Yunyi isn’t the type to keep things hidden, so she recounted what Lu Yuying had done before to Huo Jiayuan, "Actually, she didn’t really do anything, but she indeed had an interest in your brother at first. As for why she didn’t pursue it later, I really don’t know."
Huo Jiayuan covered her mouth and laughed upon hearing this: "Fourth Sister-in-law, I truly envy you. My brother is completely devoted to you. He probably didn’t want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, so he decided to nip things in the bud. Luckily, Chief Lu knows when to step back."
Yunyi thought about it and agreed; she had run into the Chief Lu couple before and didn’t sense any malice from them.
Yet speaking of it, today, Lu Yuying sang a strange tune—she and Yunyi had no interactions, yet she dared to tell Jiayuan they were friends. What is she up to?
Not liking to complicate simple matters, Yunyi felt unsettled and naturally couldn’t let it linger overnight.
So when Huo Jingrui arrived, the first thing she did was tell him what Lu Yuying had done: "We won’t be here for long, and I definitely don’t want any trouble before we leave. You’re the one who attracted her, so deal with it."
Huo Jingrui heard Yunyi’s words and recalled Chief Lu’s displeased look in his eyes: "Alright, I’ll handle it."
Thinking about the family’s phone call: "Yi’er, the family called, and barring any surprises, my parents can come the day before our wedding."
Yunyi smiled at Huo Jingrui: "We’ll go together to meet them then."
Huo Jingrui nodded: "Yes, if they come by train, we’ll go meet them."
Yunyi understood now, recognizing they might not travel by train but drive directly, considering her future father-in-law’s status, he should have a car at his disposal.
At that moment, Huo Jiayuan chimed in: "Mom said to return to Beijing with them, but could you help me? I don’t want to go back yet."
Huo Jingrui thought about Du family’s situation: "Du Shujian and Gong Fangyue are married, but something happened after the wedding..."
Upon hearing her Fourth Brother, Huo Jiayuan suddenly laughed: "Earlier Gong Fangyue showed off in front of me, but look at her now. Without the Gong Family backing her, let’s see how nice Zhang Xiaolu will be to her!"
Huo Jingrui always kept an eye on his sister’s expression, not wanting to miss anything, relieved seeing she wasn’t affected.
Huo Jiayuan wasn’t a fool, noticing her brother’s concern: "Bro, relax, I’m not one to cling onto things. When Du Shujian made his choice, we were done. Regardless of whether he still has feelings for me, I’ll never be involved with him again. Huo Jiayuan is not someone nobody wants."
