The crazy daily life of the mistress

Chapter 120 It won’t happen next time

As evening approached, the sun set and the afterglow fell on the earth, as if covering the whole world with a golden veil. Lu Yi dragged her tired body and slowly set out on the road home.

When she stepped into the house, Yan rushed out like an ant on a hot pot, hugged her tightly, and asked anxiously with a trembling voice: "My child, why did you leave without saying a word? I am really worried and restless at home! If there is something so urgent, can't you tell your parents in advance before leaving?"

In the past, whenever Lu Yi heard such caring words, she was always deeply moved and surrounded by endless warmth. However, things are different now. Her mood has changed drastically, like a pool of stagnant water, without any waves.

She raised her head from Yan's shoulder, and her eyes happened to meet Lu Chen's worried eyes. In an instant, a heart-wrenching pain surged into her heart.

Even so, in order not to make her father sad and disappointed, she knew that she still had to cooperate with Yan to continue the play. So, she slowly stretched out her hand, gently placed it on Yan's back, and said in her old coquettish tone: "Mother, it's my daughter's fault. I was too impatient at the time and went out without thinking too much. Now I'm back, right?"

Lu Hui observed Lu Yi carefully and found that there seemed to be nothing abnormal about her. She breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge stone that had been pressing on her heart had finally fallen to the ground.

She prayed silently in her heart, asking God to let Lu Yi never know the truth, and let her always regard Yan as her biological mother.

After all, Lu Hui herself has experienced the bitterness and pain of life, and she really can't bear to see Lu Yi go down the same path and endure the torture that once made her feel unbearable.

Because, in Lu Hui's opinion, Lu Yi might not be as tough and tenacious as herself.

After the family chatted for a while, Lu Yi felt that she could no longer face Lu Hui calmly as before. Her heart was filled with guilt, and she knew that she had usurped Lu Hui's identity and taken away everything that should have belonged to Lu Hui.

What made Lu Yi feel even more difficult to accept was that Lu Hui’s real age was actually younger than her, and she should be the younger sister!

Thinking of this, Lu Yi's mood became heavier.

She glanced at Lu Hui, and with mixed emotions, she called out, "Sister!"

Lu Hui looked at Lu Yi in front of her, her eyes full of doting and concern, but she still scolded him mercilessly: "It's good that you're back. You're such a grown-up, why are you still so impatient? What if something goes wrong?"

Lu Yi felt a little embarrassed by what she said. She blushed, lowered her head and smiled, and replied softly, "I know, Dad, Mom, and Sister. Next time, I will make it clear in advance and won't make you worry anymore."

Yan, who was standing by, saw that Lu Yi returned safely and seemed to be fine, and the heavy stone in her heart finally fell.

She looked at Lu Yi carefully and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was fine.

Recalling what Lu Hui had said when she blamed her for not taking good care of Lu Yi, Yan couldn't help but feel guilty. She felt that she owed her sister and had not treated her sister's daughter well.

So, she secretly made up her mind that she must love Lu Yi even more in the future, treat her as her own daughter, and make up for the mistakes she had made over the years.

Thinking of this, the smile on Yan's face became more sincere. She put her arm around Lu Yi's shoulders and said gently, "Xinxin, let's go eat first. Mother specially asked the kitchen to prepare a lot of your favorite dishes. If they get cold later, they won't taste good."

Heart to heart,

This was the first time Lu Yi heard Yan call her that.

In the past, only my father would call me by this name.

Lu Yi felt mixed emotions.

She nodded obediently and responded with a smile: "Okay, mother, but you also have to pay more attention to my sister's taste. After all, she is pregnant now and needs more care and attention."

Yan was stunned and her eyes suddenly turned red. Ever since Lu Yi married into the Duke's Mansion, in addition to giving her money to support Lu Hui, she also always reminded her to care more about Lu Hui.
