Chapter 27 - Intimate Couple (2/2)

The Victor brothers looked at each other.

Rick said, “Your wife is really cute! Does she love food?”

Lu Yaohua nodded readily. “She likes to snack in between times. I don’t even know how she got such a good appetite.”

“But your wife has maintained a good figure.”

Ryan marveled.

Tang Wenyi panicked, but she maintained a smile on her face and said, “I always go to the gym after eating. I don’t want to become a fatty.”

In reality, she was too lazy to exercise, and in order to maintain her figure, she sometimes skipped her meals.

She would never eat snacks because she hated junk food.

She seemed to have thought of something and said coyly, “I used to be even slimmer before I was with Yaohua. It was his fault that I packed on the extra pounds.”

Rick smiled and asked, “Both of you must be very happy, right?”

Tang Wenyi nodded. “We have a cute son. I remember that our son put himself in a gift box as a big birthday surprise for Yaohua!”

Lu Ze had indeed done this before, but his ultimate goal was to get Lu Yaohua to pay for something that he liked. All these years, he had only given that one birthday present.

“Wow, that’s really interesting!”

Ryan said cheerfully.

Lu Yaohua wiped the sweat off his forehead. If it wasn’t to amuse the Victor brothers, it would not be necessary to make up stories.

The two of them had received information that the Victor brothers came from a traditional American Christian family. Not only could they not eat raw or bloody food, they also put a premium on family values and family ties.

So Lu Yaohua and Tang Wenyi had to appear more affectionate than usual.

It was all to climb the ladder!

He secretly encouraged himself. As long as he could endure this moment, it would be over soon!

“Speaking of which, that kid of mine only knew how to bum around all day. I thought that he’d never amount to anything. In the end, he surprised us by visiting my mother-in-law first thing in the morning when she was suddenly hospitalized.”

He paused for a moment before continuing. “When we arrived at the hospital, he was busy caring for his grandma. At that time, we even said that the devil incarnate at home was filial at last.”

Of course, the story was made up—he was actually the mastermind of the incident.

Back then, he wanted to please his parents-in-law. That was why he went to the hospital before dawn when he found out that his mother-in-law was seriously ill.

The more Rick looked at them, the more pleased he was. He said, “There’s a saying in China that goes, ‘The little crow and the little lamb are grateful for their nurturing.’ If we don’t value family, then aren’t we worse than animals?”

“That’s right, that’s why we particularly value the character of our business partners,” Ryan added.

Unbeknown to them, all of this was caught on camera.

Lu Ming propped his chin as he fixed his eyes on the video.

He recalled how his mother had also been so intimate with Lu Yaohua a long time ago.

One time, he and his mother did not have food for two days. They would not be able to sustain starvation any longer.

Hence, he had no choice but to look for Lu Yaohua. He saw his mother kneeling on the ground and begging him.

But Lu Yaohua kicked his mother away impatiently and left.

He would never forget it.

In the end, they managed to survive with the help of a kindhearted passer-by.

“Judging by Lu Yaohua’s demeanor now, he must have forgotten about it,” Lu Ming thought.

He snorted. He could understand that one should constantly strive to make progress.

However, even though there was a better way to do that, Lu Yaohua had chosen the worst possible way.

He wanted to see the downfall of Lu Yaohua..
