She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!-Chapter 336 - 335: Her Husband Married Her While Waiting for Someone Else to Transmigrate (47)
"The three members of the Bai Family previously attempted to make a move against me, but I countered them. Now, I have placed their souls into Yu Xiaoran’s body."
"They also wanted to use Mom as a leverage, so I struck first." Ah Chen said.
"Someone from the Bai Family had found Dad. He called me to the study this morning to talk about this. He said the Bai Family has deep roots and is not to be trifled with. Since they’re willing to negotiate, we might as well. He also said I could make any demands I wanted." Ah Chen added, "Then I told him that the Bai Family couldn’t do anything to me, and now they are the ones seeking me out. Why should we fear them? Dad just told me to think about it and didn’t press me."
"He also told me not to tell you. How could I possibly not tell Mom about something so important?"
"Second Brother said the Lu Family had shown kindness to us, mother and daughter, and to harm Big Brother would be ungrateful. So I let Big Brother and Bai Ying go as a way of repaying that kindness." Ah Chen mentioned as she recalled this matter.
Bai Huimei should know these things; she wouldn’t keep them hidden.
Bai Huimei’s eyes turned red, a look of anger appeared on her face.
She had always known that the two Lu Family children didn’t like her daughter. She thought they had grown up and would at least maintain appearances, but she never expected Lu Wangqiu to say such things in front of her daughter. How hurtful that must be to her. Is Lu Mingxue just going to watch? After all, she’s not his biological daughter, so he probably doesn’t care about her feelings of injustice.
It’s understandable to plead for the eldest son.
But why plead for the three members of the Bai Family?
Is her daughter worth less than an outsider?
"When he gets back, Mom will help you get justice." Bai Huimei said, "Some things indeed need to be properly discussed."
Ah Chen, however, held Bai Huimei and shook her head: "Mom, it’s not that simple. Do you think Dad is someone who would easily help outsiders?"
Bai Huimei fell silent; of course not.
Lu Mingxue is a very rational person and wouldn’t simply act out of kindness, which is why she was angry that he spoke for those three people who wanted to harm her daughter.
"They might have some entanglements." Ah Chen said, "Mom, just pretend not to know anything for now and see what other tricks the Bai Family has."
Bai Huimei nodded, believing her daughter must have a plan.
Chenchen dared to confront the Bai Family, whom even Lu Mingxue feared, because she must trust the skills she has learned.
The only thing she, as a mother, can do is support her daughter’s wishes.
"Chenchen, do you want to leave the Lu Family?" Bai Huimei suddenly asked. Since the Lu Family doesn’t welcome them, both mother and daughter, and she has contributed all these years, perhaps it’s time to part ways. She no longer feels indebted to Lu Mingxue.
For her daughter, the Lu Family might not be a good place. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
In the past, the two Lu Family children ignored Chenchen, and now there’s such conflict with Chenchen. Life is long, and she doesn’t want her daughter to live under their exclusion.
In the past, she might not have dared to bring this up, but now she feels slightly more confident. At least, leaving this household, she has the ability to earn a living.
"Once the Bai Family matter is resolved, I will leave the Lu Family, Mom." Ah Chen said, "But whether you leave or not is your choice. If you leave, we’ll go together. If you are reluctant to leave, I’ll come back often to visit you."
"Alright, let’s wait until you’ve resolved things, and then I’ll talk to him." Bai Huimei said. After all, it’s been over twenty years. To leave just like that is difficult. It’s not about being deeply in love with Lu Mingxue, but rather the twenty years of companionship has become a habit.
"Mom, really pretend not to know anything, don’t let them find any flaws." Ah Chen reminded.
Bai Huimei nodded seriously: "Don’t worry, Mom won’t hold you back."
In the afternoon, the members of the Lu Family returned one after another.
Lu Fengqiu had already recovered. When Lu Wangqiu saw Ah Chen, he didn’t glare, just a mocking look, not even sparing her a glance.
This time, Bai Huimei carefully observed the members of the Lu Family. Seeing Lu Wangqiu’s attitude made her more determined to leave the Lu Family with her daughter.
Her Chenchen is also a treasure; why should she be despised like this?
She felt very upset, her accumulated grievances suddenly burst out. This wasn’t momentary but accumulated over a long time. In the past, having no choice and fear of the outside world trapped her here, without the courage to think about leaving the Lu Family.
Now, it’s different. The modern internet era provides her an opportunity.
It’s indeed time to have a good talk with Lu Mingxue about these things. Her daughter shouldn’t always be the one suffering.
Lu Mingxue returned, carrying a bag, and said with a smile: "I brought gifts for all of you."
Ah Chen looked over, her smile unwavering.
She realized that this world indeed possesses such things, but she was not surprised. Ji Wuyan had already mentioned such things to her before. This item belongs to a Mysterious Family, and when Bai Suqiu went to borrow it, they had hinted at this information.
As it was not yet the right time to capture the Bai Family members, they speculated that Bai Suqiu borrowed this item to deal with her.
"Dad, what did you get me? It’s rare for you to buy us gifts." Lu Wangqiu was very enthusiastic and quickly approached to look.
Lu Mingxue took out a box and handed it to him.
Opening the box, inside was a car key and a picture, depicting the car, just the kind Lu Wangqiu liked. He beamed with joy.
"Dad is being generous today."
"Did the company land a big deal?"
"Dad, where’s the car?"
"The car will be delivered tomorrow morning." Lu Mingxue smiled, then took out another box and handed it to Lu Fengqiu.
Lu Fengqiu opened it, revealing a watch, certainly not less valuable than Lu Wangqiu’s car.
"Chenchen, this is for you." Lu Mingxue handed a box to Ah Chen.
Ah Chen took it, opened it, and found a gemstone necklace. While an ordinary person wouldn’t notice, she could sense the mystery of this gemstone necklace.
Lu Wangqiu glanced at it and knew that the gemstone wasn’t cheap. Combined, his and his brother’s gifts didn’t add up to the value of this necklace.
He wanted to say something, but Lu Fengqiu gave him a tug.
Dad gifting something so expensive to Bai Chen this time was likely to appease her and ease relations. If the younger brother said something wrong, the relationship wouldn’t improve. Even after knowing that Bai Suqiu was the one who birthed them, as much as Lu Fengqiu once longed for maternal love, now he wanted to bury those matters.
Because he knew that if this matter were exposed and combined with Dad’s subsequent attitude, the Lu Family would fall apart.
He had long seen that Dad was pleased with the current situation of the Lu Family and had some affection for Aunt Bai.
From the gradual delegation of important company matters to him, one could tell Dad wanted to step down. In the morning, on the way in the car, Dad even told him that he wanted to spend more time with Aunt Bai in the remaining time.
In the past, he might have been upset about this.
But now he wouldn’t, feeling it’s quite good this way.
Just hoping nothing happens to disrupt their family.
But he always felt a sense of unease, unable to pinpoint its source.
Ah Chen moved her gaze from the necklace and thanked Lu Mingxue.
Then Lu Mingxue handed another box to Bai Huimei, and inside was a gemstone ring, equally surpassing the value of both Lu brothers’ gifts.
Lu Wangqiu was very dissatisfied; who was truly closer to his father? Such expensive things, why should they be given to these two women, let alone Bai Huimei, why give such an expensive one to Bai Chen?
"Second Brother, do you like my necklace?" Ah Chen suddenly asked, moving in front of Lu Wangqiu. "Since you like it so much, you can have it. Let me help you put it on."
Initially, Lu Mingxue didn’t pay it any mind. Upon hearing these words, he quickly turned around and saw Ah Chen actually putting the necklace on Lu Wangqiu, and the latter didn’t resist.
"No, wait!" he hurriedly shouted.
