Married to the Male Lead's Brother

Chapter 70

Lin Tien-tien's face was stained with red wine. Her hairstyle and exquisite makeup were all ruined. She was so angry that she trembled and couldn't help but angrily scold the servant.

However, when she heard the voice that spoke, she was stunned.

Her sweet and pleasant voice from before had actually changed back.

With the help of the halo, Lin Tien-tien's voice had been modified and became very pleasant to the ears. Even if she was angry and scolded people, it would only make people feel that she was scolding them coquettishly. Instead, it would make people feel pity for her and feel that it was all someone else's fault.

Now, the last bit of her halo was returned to Ningzhi. Her voice changed back. Her angry scolding was so sharp that it pierced the ears of many guests present.

Lin Tien-tien couldn't care less about the gazes of the people around her. She saw that the jade around her neck had fallen to the ground and broken.

Lin Tien-tien was dumbfounded. She immediately squatted down to pick it up. The broken jade couldn't be pieced back together no matter how hard she tried.

This also meant that she couldn't steal Ningzhi's halo in the future.

Lu Changshen took off his jacket and draped it over his wife Lin Tien-tien. "The necklace is broken. I'll buy you a new one in the future. Your clothes are dirty. Go change into a new one. Wipe your face and hair while you're at it."

Lu Changshen's expression wasn't very good, but the words he spoke were still doting. Many of the guests around them were envious. They looked at Lin Tien-tien with envy.

What right did Lin Tien-tien have to marry the eldest young master of the Lu family?

Lin Tien-tien looked at Lu Changshen, touched. Even though she had reverted back to her original form, Lu Changshen had never despised her. He still doted on her like this.

"Shen Yuan."

Lin Tien-tien's original voice was a little rough and thick. It wasn't as sweet and pleasant as before. When she called Lu Changshen's name in a delicate voice, it felt weird as if she was pinching her throat.

Lu Changshen's eyes darkened. "I'll get someone to send you back first."

Lin Tien-tien took her shattered jade and left the banquet.

Ningzhi saw that Lu Changshen's expression didn't change. He was still calmly listening to the elders speak or chatting with the guests who came forward. She narrowed her eyes. She could tell that Lu Changshen was a very calm person.

At the birthday banquet, Grandma Song brought along Ningzhi and Lu Jue wherever she went. The guests would constantly praise the two juniors based on their expressions, which made Grandma Song even happier.

When they went to rest, Grandma Song asked her daughter, Song Ya, "Today, I saw that Xiaojue's condition has improved greatly. I spoke to him a few times, and that child could respond to me. I can also see that he and Ningzhi have a good relationship.

Since Xiaojue's condition is getting better, what do you and Dongzhou plan to do? "

Recently, Mother Lu often communicated with Lu Jue. Although she was the one talking most of the time and her son was the one listening, he would occasionally respond. This was a huge improvement. This was something she didn't even dare to think about before.

"Mom, you mean …" Mother Lu hesitated.

"I didn't agree with you adopting another child. Now that both children are grown up, and Shen Yuan is learning how to manage a company, it's inevitable that he will have evil intentions in the future."

Grandma Song had lived for most of her life. Sometimes, she was quite astute when it came to judging people. Lu Changshen was becoming more and more unfathomable. She was worried that her good grandson, Lu Jue, would suffer in the future.

Grandma Song really didn't remember Ningzhi. At that time, she was in a daze when her illness flared up. Plus, so many years had passed, so she couldn't remember the incident at all. However, subconsciously, she liked Ningzhi very much. Subconsciously, she also distanced herself from Lu Changshen, her eldest grandson.

Mother Lu understood her mother's meaning. She smiled and said, "Mom, Shen Yuan usually dotes on his younger brother, Lu Jue. He's not that kind of person. Don't worry."

Grandma Song waved her hand. "Since you've already made Shen Yuan and his wife move out of the Lu family, there are some things that need to be made clear in advance. People's hearts are the most unpredictable."

Grandma Song meant to settle the matter of the inheritance as soon as possible, or to prevent Lu Changshen from having any bad thoughts. In any case, she was biased toward her good grandson and had to make plans for him.

People outside had been spreading the news that Lu Changshen would inherit the Lu family's inheritance. Grandma Song had to remind her daughter.

"Dongzhou and I have always planned to give Shen Yuan a portion of the company's shares. With him helping to manage the company, we can be at ease in the future. As for the rest, it will all go to Xiaojue."

Mother Lu wasn't muddle-headed. Although she felt kinship with her eldest son, it couldn't be better than Lu Jue.

Grandma Song nodded. "Since Xiaojue's condition has improved, you can try to get him back to the company. He can't stay at home every day."

Mother Lu agreed to each of her requests.

After the birthday banquet, Mother Lu went to find her husband and told him what her mother had said today.

"Mom is more biased toward Xiaojue. She's always worried that we don't treat Xiaojue well enough." Mother Lu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Xiaojue is our child. How can I not love him?"

Father Lu hugged his wife. His cold features softened a little. "Mom's worries aren't unfounded. After a while, I'll make my will."

To him, it was only a matter of time.

Mother Lu was moved.
