Chapter 494: Chapter 494: Shouldn’t We Go Home Together?

Madam Lu glanced at Lan Yuyi’s belly, and then at Lu Lingche, dressed in his groom’s suit, a great sorrow welling up in her heart.

The wedding today, everything today, should have belonged to her son.

But, her son was dead.

To ensure the smooth birth and inheritance of her son’s sole lineage, she was forced to let Lu Lingche take her son’s place and marry Lan Yuyi.

Her heart ached incredibly!

She also knew that her husband, Lu Mingzhen, was not in a good mood today. At this time, he too would be thinking about their deceased son.

Even Lu Lingche wasn’t smiling at all because he knew that he was hosting this wedding as a substitute for his elder brother. He too would be thinking about his brother and was burdened with guilt and pain.

The only joyous one was Lan Yuyi, who was sitting beside her.

In just over half a year, it seemed that Lan Yuyi had already forgotten about her son.

Her affection for Lu Lingche was blatantly obvious as she eyed him greedily, wanting nothing more than to be in his arms right away!

Madam Lu suppressed her displeasure towards Lan Yuyi. She cut an orange for her and patiently fed it to her like a mother.

Oranges were the fruit her son loved when he was alive. Previously, Lan Yuyi didn’t eat them much, but her taste changed since she became pregnant. Now, she craved the sweet and sour fruit.

Madam Lu believes it was because their unborn grandson liked the oranges, so she was taking extra good care of Lan Yuyi.

After a while, Lu Mingzhen finally finished talking to Lu Lingche. Lan Yuyi quickly stood up and called, “Lingche!”

Lu Lingche came over, “What is it?”

“I’m a little tired. Should we go home now?”

Lu Lingche nodded indifferently, “Let’s go.”

Lan Yuyi’s heart fluttered with excitement. After the wedding, things had truly changed!

Lu Lingche was finally willing to live with her!

She hurriedly said goodbye to Madam Lu and quickly followed Lu Lingche out.

Madam Lu’s brows were furrowed in disapproval, her voice full of discontent, “Yuyi, slow down! Lingche, assist Yuyi, don’t let her trip! If anything happens to her, I won’t forgive you!”

Lu Lingche heard Madam Lu’s words, but he did not assist Lan Yuyi, instead directing his assistant to help her.

Lan Yuyi, however, slapped away the assistant’s hand and said in a tender and shy voice, “Husband, you help me. I don’t want anyone else touching me.”

Lu Lingche usually didn’t care about others’ opinions. He was very self-centered and was unperturbed by the words of others.

But Lan Yuyi’s address made his scalp prickle and brought about a serious discomfort.

In that moment, he even thought of abandoning Lan Yuyi there.

But, he couldn’t.

At least today, on the day that his elder brother had long waited for, he could not abandon Lan Yuyi.

His voice was cold as he said, “Don’t call me like that. The only man you should call like that is my elder brother.”

“But we have already had our wedding. We are husband and wife now. You are my husband now!”

“The wedding I held with you was on behalf of my brother. The wedding was my brother’s last wish. I just fulfilled it for him as a promise to our father.”

Upon hearing this, the cheerfulness that Lan Yuyi had been sustaining throughout the day disappeared, and a sorrowful pallor replaced it, “All right, I understand. I’m sorry, I was too impulsive. Let’s go home.”

Lu Lingche nodded, watching as she got into the car and sat in the back seat, he sat in the passenger seat and commanded, “Yuanshan, drive.”

“Yes, President Lu!”

Upon hearing his command, Yuanshan started the car and drove out of the Lu’s villa.

After a while, Lan Yuyi realised something was wrong, “Lingche, where are we going? This doesn’t seem to be the way to your place?”
