Chapter 387 - then who else? (2/2)
Madam Lu shook her head and looks at Grandfather Ji with a smile, ”Uncle, if it is alright with you, after your birthday celebration, I would like to chat with Yue Ling and get to know her better.”
Hearing the sudden words, Grandfather Ji slightly frown. If he knows that Yue Ling and Lu Tian are together, shouldn't the Lu family know this too?
Thinking this, he turns to look at Yue Ling then a smile curl on his stern face. Whether the Lu family knows or not does not matter. The secret is already out.
”Mm. I do not mind as long as Ah Ling is willing.”
Yue Ling turn her attention away from Lu Tian to her grandfather and Madam Lu. With slightly furrow brows, she thought about the woman's words.
They had already met, but why would she say she wanted to get to know her better?
Thinking that it must be something polite to do since it is revealed that she is her yeye's granddaughter, she nods her head.
”Mm, we can chat after the celebration.”
However, what Yue Ling did not know is that, Madam Lu wanted to meet her not as the retired supermodel or the designer of De L'amour. She wanted too meet Yue Ling as the daughter of her dear friend who left this world.
Ji Chu Hua watched everything happen in jealousy. She wishes so badly to go over to Yue Ling and rip the slut into shreds.
She was the granddaughter who was supposed to chat with Madam Lu. How did it become Yue Ling? How is she supposed to get close to Lu Tian now?
Oblivious to the woman's inner feelings, Madam Lu laughs heartily as she looks at Yue Ling and Lu Tian then Grandfather Ji.
”Uncle, this is perfect. Both children had already met before we even introduced them to each other.”
Grandfather Ji also looks at Yue Ling and Lu Tian.
He does not have much longer to live and hopes to see the day she marries. From the way Lu Tian looks at Yue Ling, he can tell that the boy's feelings are genuine. Unlike the way Gu Ting Fei stared at his granddaughter like a hungry wolf.
If he wants to protect Yue Ling and Ji Jingxu from the snakes hiding within the Ji family and those outside, he needed to find someone powerful. Someone who he knows will be able to keep them both safe.
And with Lu Tian and the Lu family at their side, there's no way others will dare to harm them.
Ji Jingxu was also happy to know his older sister is being taken care of. He had his doubts about Lu Tian, but now, he can rest assure that Lu Tian will not break Yue Ling's heart.
While the conversation continued at the main table, no one noticed how nervous Yue Ling was despite her looking calm on the outside.
She really did not expect to meet Lu Tian here, however, she must collect herself together. She made a promise to her yeye and there was no turning back.
As she thought to herself, she felt a sudden cold touch on the back on her hand that was resting on her lap.
Though it was cold, it somehow brought warmth to her.
Yue Ling turn her head to the right and looks at Lu Tian.
The man remained expressionless, but as her eyes met the side of his face, his large hand gently slides his fingers between hers and held a firm grip.
She couldn't help but blush as the nervous feeling she had quickly disappears in ease.
Knowing that he is here with her, she inhales a deep breath and turn to look at her grandfather.
”Yeye, I want to formally introduce you to someone.”
