Chapter 877 - The Lu Family Couple (1/2)
Charlie licked his owner’s fingers as if he were comforting her.
Three days later, the once owners of the Lu family—Lu Jinrong’s parents—returned home.
Father Lu was named Lu Ke’en, and Madam Lu’s family name was Jian. Her name was Qingying. However, everyone was used to calling her Madam Lu. Lu Ke’en was the only one who called her by her name.
Lu Ke’en helped his wife into the house. He looked a little tired, but there was an astonishing similarity between him and Lu Jinrong. However, unlike Lu Jinrong, he had a cold and decisive aura to him. Lu Ke’en was not cunning and well-rounded like his son.
Lu Ke’en’s murderous aura was direct. It was that of a man whose hand had been covered in blood.
Compared to him, Lu Jinrong was a lot more peaceful and kind.
Madam Lu’s eyes were red. There were dark circles underneath her eyes. It looked like she had not had proper sleep or rest in a long time.
“Ke’en, where’s our daughter? Where’s our Xiaohua?” She tugged on Lu Ke’en’s sleeves and asked anxiously. “Are you all lying to me? Are you all lying to me again? My daughter’s not back; she didn’t come back. She was hysterical at this point.
“What are you talking about? Why would we lie to you? Even if you don’t believe me, you’ve got to believe our son. He will never lie to you.” He reassured her as he held her hand.
“Xiaohua is back. He’s found Xiaohua for us.”
“Is that true?’ Jian Qingying still could not believe it. She could never believe it if she did not see her daughter with her own eyes.
“Yes,” Lu Ke’en replied to his wife as he signaled to Qin Xuejuan with his eyes.
Qin Xuejuan immediately understood and went to go get Xia Ruoxin. Of course, there were some things that she had to explain to the latter beforehand to prevent her from slipping out. Madam’s mental state was getting worse by the day, and things would not look good if they continued the way they were.
Jian Qingying looked at the door from time to time as she gripped her husband’s hand. Her nails were already digging into him, but he did not even blink.
His eyes were fixed on his wife whose eyes were glued to the door.
“She’s here; she’s here.” She stood up suddenly, her eyes reflecting a slim figure.
She suddenly covered her mouth. “Ke’en, Ke’en. Do you see… do you see it?” She pulled Lu Ke’en’s hand. She was so agitated she was stammering.
“Xiaohua, my Xiaohua.” She let go of Lu Ke’en’s hand and ran towards the girl at the door and hugged her tightly.
“Xiaohua, Xiaohua, Mommy’s Xiaohua. You’re finally back. Do you know how much Mommy has missed you?”
