Chapter 1377 - Her heart suddenly ached for Brother Lin Chen’s mother. (1/2)

Lu Yunfan was on the verge of tears. Brother Lin Chen, you’re really smart. Can you come and rescue your pitiful girlfriend?

Before Lu Yunfan could reply, Liang Mulan’s phone rang…

Liang Mulan glanced at her phone and smiled. “Sorry, I’ll take a call!”

Liang Mulan then walked out of the dining room with her phone.

“Why did you call back at this hour?” Liang Mulan asked as she looked into the dining room. Seeing that Lu Yunfan was still sitting there cautiously, she was puzzled.

“Mom, did you deceive Lu Yunfan into coming home?” Lin Chen asked.

“What do you mean by deceiving? Why are you speaking so harshly?” Liang Mulan’s lips curled up. “That day, I bought a painting at Fanfan’s gallery and got Fanfan to send it to me. I quite like this child. She’s innocent and kind… and she’s also sincere towards others. It’s just that she’s not very guarded against others. But even this trait of her shows that this young lady has a simple and clean heart. The more I look at Fan Fan, the more I like her!”

Lin Chen held his forehead. “Don’t scare her!”

“How am I scaring her? She doesn’t even know that I’m your mother. I even pretended that I would introduce her to my son. She rejected me outright, saying that she only likes her boyfriend. Aiyo… what a cute young lady!”

Liang Mulan praised Lu Yunfan in a lengthy manner, which showed how much she liked her.

“Lu Yunfan has already discovered our family portrait in the dining room!” Lin Chen sighed.

Liang Mulan paused in surprise and took two steps back. Indeed, the servants hadn’t hidden away their family portraits in the dining room…

No wonder Lu Yunfan suddenly acted so reserved when she returned to the dining room!

Liang Mulan looked enlightened. “No wonder when I came back from the washroom Fanfan seemed to have changed into a different person. She became so careful in front of me. What should I do? I haven’t had enough time to chat with Fanfan!”

“Let her go!” Lin Chen said. “Perhaps she is regretting talking so much in front of you just now. She might even think that you had deceived her…”

Liang Mulan was speechless.

After hanging up the call, Liang Mulan returned and pretended not to notice anything. She smiled at Lu Yunfan and said, “When the sweet soup and the spare ribs are ready, I’ll get the driver to send you back…”

“No need, no need!” Liang Mulan hurriedly waved her hands. “Erm, I only came to see your art collection today, but I’ve worn out your welcome by staying for lunch.”

“How can we just let something we agreed upon pass? You don’t have to act so formally with me! I feel we’re very compatible. I really like you, young lady. I hope you’ll come over more often when you’re free!” Liang Mulan smiled and said.

Like her? Compatible? Was it true? Lu Yunfan felt uneasy.

“I have three children, one son and two daughters. The eldest son only knows how to get busy with work, and he doesn’t have the time to accompany me. One daughter is married, has kids, and is busy with work. The other daughter is also out of the house every day. I’m lonely all by myself in this big house. I’m thrilled you came and chatted with me today!” Liang Mulan smiled gently at Lu Yunfan. “I haven’t been so happy in a long time…”

Lu Yunfan looked up in Liang Mulan’s direction. Her heart suddenly ached for Brother Lin Chen’s mother.

Yes, Brother Lin Chen was so busy all day… he definitely wouldn’t have time to accompany his mother!
