Secret Marriage: Wife Spoiling Husband-Chapter 335: Be Alert
Li Xiaolu was quite nervous to get out of the car when they had reached the Lin Mansion. She clutched Zhang Zhehan hands tightly and she refused to move from her place.
"Are you nervous?" Zhang Zhehan asked.
"A little." Li Xiaolu answered in a low voice.
"Baby, everything's going to fine. They love you even when they don't know that you are their daughter." Zhang Zhehan chuckled. "Instead, I am the one who should be nervous about meeting your parents."
"Why?"
"Because your brothers don't like me that much." Zhang Zhehan explained with a smile.
"Really? But why?" Li Xiaolu was confused.
"Because I stole their pretty little sister from them." Zhang Zhehan laughed as he pinched Li Xiaolu's nose. "And if they knew that, they will definitely hate me."
Li Xiaolu laughed. "Don't worry, if that happens then I will divorce you and stay with them. Then they will not hate you."
Zhang Zhehan: "....."
"Wifey, you are so mean." Zhang Zhehan sulked.
Seeing Zhang Zhehan's sulking face Li Xiaolu laughed. All of her nervousness was gone in the moment. She glanced at Zhang Zhehan and pulled him by his neck. "Thank you, " she smiled as she kissed him lightly.
"Then shall we go in?" Zhang Zhehan asked.
Li Xiaolu nodded. She got down from the car and held Zhang Zhehan hand. There was a little excitement on her face and she was eager to meet her parents. Even though she knew that she couldn't tell them that she was their daughter, she was still happy by the fact that she could be with them at least.
As soon as they entered the Lin Mansion they were warmly greeted by the Housekeeper who led them inside. Zhu Qian, Lin Haoming, and Lin Mochen were already waiting for them with great eagerness.
As soon as Li Xiaolu saw her parents, her eyes welled up with tears. She tried to control her tears from falling down and her body from trembling. The gush of emotions was so strong in her heart that it was very hard for her to not rush towards them and hug them.
Zhang Zhehan glanced at his wife from the corner of his eyes and he sighed. This was his first time seeing her being so nervous. He rubbed her palm with his finger to soothe her down. He knew what she was feeling and that's why even without saying anything he wanted her to know that he would always be with her no matter what.
After all the warm welcome and greetings were done, Li Xiaolu sat down beside Zhang Zhehan. "Xiaolu how are you feeling now?" Zhu Qian asked warmly.
"I'm alright." Li Xiaolu smiled.
"That's a relief."
"Yeah, we were really scared when you were taken away like that." Lin Mochen said.
"What did actually happen over there?" he asked. "I remember that your plan to expose the Li family was not like that."
"You knew that this was going to happen. And you didn't tell us?" Zhu Qian interrupted. She glared at her son who hid such a big thing from her.
"So that's why you stopped us from going to the wedding." Lin Haoming said as he looked up at his son.
Lin Mochen scratched his neck awkwardly. He could only nod his head. "I just knew that Xiaolu was going to expose the Li family. Nothing else." he quickly explained to his parents who were throwing daggers at him.
"Yeah, when I planned the whole thing I never thought that things would turn out to be like this." Li Xiaolu smiled.
"But still, Xiaolu who the heck kidnapped you? What did he want from you? Was it done by that despicable Li family? And where are they?" Lin Mochen questioned.
"Well, it was not done by the Li family." Li Xiaolu answered.
"Then who?"
"Long Xun." Zhang Zhehan answered.
Hearing that name, Zhu Qian and Lin Haoming gasped in shock while Lin Mochen was a little confused. "Long Xun? Where have I heard of that name before?" he mused.
Just as he was thinking about that name, something clicked in his mind. "Hey Mom, Dad isn't Long Xun that last heir of the Long family? Wasn't he dead?" he asked curiously.
"L-Long Xun is alive?" Zhu Qian asked. Her voice trembled and tears started falling down from her eyes as she asked about Long Xun. She looked at Zhang Zhehan and waited for him to say something.
Zhang Zhehan nodded.
"How's that possible? We have seen his dead body with our own eyes. If he was alive and well then why didn't he come back to us? And why did he kidnap Li Xiaolu?" Lin Haoming frowned. He was happy that Long Xun was alive but at the same that something was wrong.
"I don't know what had happened at that time. But he's alive and he's back." Zhang Zhehan said seriously.
"Uncle Lin, I want you to be alert and increase the security around everyone. Long Xun has changed very much over the last few years," he added.
"Why?" Lin Haoming frowned.
"Because he thinks that we killed his father and he's back for revenge. Currently, he works for the underworld and he is very dangerous for us. His head is filled with getting revenge so please be careful." Zhang Zhehan explained.
All of this was a major shock to both Zhu Qian and Lin Haoming. The mention of Long Xun brought back those sad memories that he had buried very deep in their heart. Thinking about all of that thing that happened, Lin Haoming sighed.
"It's all because of me." Zhu Qian murmured. "It's all my fault. If only I didn't -..." Zhu Qian paused. She bit her tongue and stopped herself from saying anything else.
"It's not your fault, Qian'er. It's his father's fault." Lin Haoming gritted as he comforted his wife. If only that incident wouldn't have happened...
Zhu Qian nodded. She looked at the floor as more tears fell from her eyes. She knew it was her fault because she had hidden something from everyone, even her husband.
A secret of actually what happened that night...
A secret that can change everything.
