Min Rui’s voice carried no inflection, and his expression was surprisingly calm.

Feng Lu: "It’s not that I wanted to give birth to you, I just couldn’t get rid of you."

Min Rui: "Do you have even a shred of fondness for us?"

"...For your brother and sister... I do have a bit of fondness." The meaning was clear, Feng Lu, a mother, completely disliked the first son she gave birth to in this life.

Min Rui’s face showed no change as he asked, "Are you sure you like Ming Han and Ming Wei?"

"Whether I’m sure or not, what does it have to do with you? You should know, I’m your mom, even if I don’t like you, it doesn’t change the fact that you were born to me."

Feng Lu’s complexion became quite poor.

"Why do you want my sister to live with you?"

Min Rui asked, revealing the reason he had come here.

"I don’t see the need to tell you." Feng Lu didn’t want to talk further with Min Rui. She looked at him quietly for a moment and said, "Don’t come looking for me again. Tell Vivi that I’ll be at the garden entrance around three in the afternoon to pick her up."

With those words, Feng Lu turned to leave.

"What grounds do you have? Apart from giving birth to us, have you contributed anything? No, since not, what grounds do you have to want my sister to live with you? Do you think my family doesn’t have adults to stop whatever you want?"

"I’ve talked with Luo Yanqing, not just once. If there’s any problem, feel free to ask Luo Yanqing." Leaving a bland remark, Feng Lu walked further and further from the iron gate.

Watching her back, Min Rui’s gaze gradually darkened.

Feng Lu reached the living room door but didn’t enter immediately. She slowly turned around, her gaze fell back outside the door, seeing no one was there, and her expression became quite complex for a moment.

She originally planned to take the twins away from Luo Yanqing. For this matter, she specifically contacted him and arranged to meet.

But Luo Yanqing outright refused. Even when she revealed the secret concerning the twins’ parentage, Luo Yanqing, after a moment of astonishment, still kept silent about handing over the twins.

Having no other way, she could only use the twins’ parentage as leverage. If Luo Yanqing didn’t agree, she didn’t mind destroying her own reputation to let everyone in the garden know that the esteemed Professor Luo was made a fool.

Once the matter spread around the garden, not only would Luo Yanqing’s reputation suffer, but the twins would also be criticized and pointed at.

If any child from the garden told the twins’ school, it would certainly have a greater impact on them.

Perhaps intimidated by her threats, though Luo Yanqing didn’t reply before leaving, she felt that he had undoubtedly softened his stance, only waiting to see if she could convince the twins to live with her.

Unexpectedly, the sister among the twins secretly met with her after she approached twice.

Because of that meeting, she decided to give up on the brother among the twins. Currently, she only wants the sister to live with her. Of course, her so-called giving up isn’t truly giving up, but rather, taking it step by step until necessary. When the time comes, Luo Minghan, the brother among the twins, she’ll still want him back.

Han Bin came from the living room: "Why aren’t you going in?"

"I was just about to go in."

Feng Lu said, linking her arm with Han Bin’s: "Let’s go to your study. I have something to tell you."

"What is so secretive?" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Han Bin said, but his pace showed no hesitation.

In the living room, Han Qian sat on the sofa watching TV. Seeing Feng Lu linking Han Bin and heading upstairs, she couldn’t help but scoff: "Shameless!" It was clear that her "shameless" was directed at Feng Lu.

"You’re... you’re not joking with me?"

In the study, Han Bin was momentarily stunned by what Feng Lu had said.

"Why would I joke with you?" Feng Lu looked directly into his eyes: "If you don’t believe me, you’re welcome to meet the child. He and you look just like father and son."

Han Bin remained silent.

Because he recalled when his daughter, Han Qian, was in elementary school, she once mentioned in front of him that there was a classmate named Luo Minghan who looked almost exactly like him when he was younger.

"You’re telling me now... to bring the two children from your ex-husband?"

"I want to, but my ex-husband simply doesn’t agree."

Listening to Feng Lu, Han Bin, as a man, couldn’t understand why Luo Yanqing didn’t agree. Why bother raising someone else’s children for over ten years, yet still want to continue raising them?
