From Villain to Cherished: Counter My Role by Pampering Kids Chapter 10: Lu Family’s Old House

She followed the steps, first chopping the corn and ribs, and then arranging them on a plate.

In her original world, she always ordered delivery for als at work. Occasionally, she would cook so simple noodles or porridge, but she hadn’t really made soup before.

She rembered making soup once, and it tasted okay. But since she hadn’t done it for so long, she had forgotten how.

Outside the living room, the two little ones were engrossed in watching cartoons on the tablet. From ti to ti, they danced along with the rhythm of the animation.

Lu Family’s old house.

"Xiao Yun, you’re back."

Old Madam Lu, with the help of her servant, stood at the door and smiled happily when she saw her little grandson return.

Lu Yun looked at her, his usually stern face softening a little.

"Hello, Grandma."

"Good, good," the old madam chuckled, "It’s good that you can co back."

Lu Yun’s indifferent gaze turned cold the mont he saw a middle-aged man in casual clothes standing inside the house.

Father Lu: "What kind of attitude is that?"

The old madam quickly pulled at her son, angrily saying, "It’s not easy for Xiao Yun to co back, so don’t act all parental."

She was afraid that her grandson and his father would et and argue like last ti, with her grandson storming out of the house after just a few seconds.

The old madam hurriedly pulled her grandson inside, saying, "Aunt Liu has prepared a al you like, co taste and see if Aunt Liu’s cooking skills have declined."

Aunt Liu laughed on the side, "Young master, co try it out. You haven’t been ho in so long; the old madam missed you."

The tense atmosphere between father and son eased sowhat, and Lu Yun and others sat at the dining table.

He glanced indifferently at the dishes he used to like as a child.

At the old madam’s signal, Aunt Liu used shared chopsticks to serve food to the young master.

"Young master, this is fresh fish the old madam personally sent soone to pick from the market. Try it!"

Lu Yun: "Thank you, Grandma."

The old madam smiled warmly, "There’s no need for thanks among family."

After eating almost to the end, the always-silent Father Lu suddenly spoke.

"Lu Yun, you’ve known ngqi since childhood. Recently, I’ve discussed with Uncle Jiang to choose a good day to formalize your marriage with Jiang ngqi."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yun’s chopsticks slamd down heavily on the table.

Instantly, bowls and plates overturned, fragnts scattered, and the crisp sound of breaking ceramics echoed through the quiet dining room.

The old madam and the surrounding servants were taken aback by this sudden action, not daring to make a sound.

Lu Yun looked up at him coldly, "Do you think I’m Lu Zhichen?"

Hearing this, Father Lu’s face instantly darkened.

"Lu Yun, you are a son of the Lu Family, and since you’re part of it, you should take on so Lu Family responsibilities."

Lu Yun sneered at these words, "A mber of the Lu Family? Is that what I chose?"

"You’ve had high hopes for Lu Zhichen since young, and you pushed him to his death. Is it my turn now?"

"Insolent! I am your father!" Father Lu slamd the table, furious.

Lu Yun rose and turned to leave.

Father Lu watched his departing figure, angrily shouting, "Whether you want this marriage or not, you will do it for !"

"Get out!"

A furious roar followed from behind.

Father Lu listened to these unfilial words, his face turning pale with rage.

The old madam angrily cast him a sidelong glance.

"You made Xiao Yun leave again! Everything was fine, and you have to bring up marriage? You know Xiao Yun won’t listen to you."

Father Lu: "Mom, everything I do is for his own good."

The old madam snorted coldly, "For his good? It’s all for yourself. You drove your eldest son to death, and now you’re doing the sa to the younger one?"

Even at his age, Father Lu was chided by his mother, making him a little embarrassed.

"Mom, do you think I want this?"

The old madam: "It was a good al, and you insisted on bringing this up. It’s bad enough that he’s unwilling to co back, and now you’ve made it even harder. Getting him to co ho again will be even more difficult."

Father Lu remained silent.

Ye Family—

Ye’s father received a call from Old Madam Lu in the living room. After a while, he hung up and turned to his son, who was lounging on the sofa, "Ye Yixing, buy so gifts and visit your cousin’s company."

Ye Yixing didn’t look up, "Why should I visit his company for no reason?"

"Your cousin had another fight with his father, and Old Madam Lu asked you to go and comfort him."

Ye Yixing paused and then said, "He’s like a fortress, he doesn’t need any comforting."

Ye’s father shouted, "Just go as I said! Why so much nonsense!"

The shout from his father almost made Ye Yixing roll off the sofa in fright.

He put away his gaming phone, muttering, "I’ll go, no need to be so fierce."

Before leaving, Ye’s father instructed.

"When you get there, speak nicely to your cousin, okay?"

"Okay, okay," Ye Yixing replied irritably, "You never asked to cozy up to Lu Yun before. Ever since he beca the Lu Family head, you and those uncles have been telling to hang out with him whenever I can."

Ye’s father felt awkward at those words and rubbed his nose.

Lu Yun is different now...

A few years ago, it was Lu Yun’s elder brother Lu Zhichen who was in charge, and Lu Yun was just like his son, seemingly going nowhere.

Both Lu Yun and his son were watched by the older generation since they were young, with no expectations for them to achieve anything in the future.

Who knew that since his elder brother Lu Zhichen died, Lu Yun seed like a different person, fighting his way through the ranks of younger and older generations in the Lu Family and securing the position of family head.

If it was before, who would have known Lu Yun had such abilities?

Not only his side of the family but also Lu Yun’s relatives all failed to see this.

He sotis wondered if his son was also hiding his talents like Lu Yun, appearing to be indifferent but actually extrely smart and strategic.

But seeing his son slouching on the sofa in a useless manner.

His fantasies imdiately shattered.

Just recently, he had dragged his son to intern at the company, hoping he would display so extraordinary talent like Lu Yun. Yet, he was utterly incompetent, like a wall of mud that couldn’t hold up, making him, soone almost in the grave, half-dead from anger.

"You should learn from your cousin, you’re of the sa generation and age, used to play together a lot, how co you’ve learned nothing of your cousin’s business acun."

Hearing his father’s words, Ye Yixing looked up, "Who was it back then that told to have little contact with Lu Yun? It’s funny how only a few years have passed and now you and those uncles have completely changed your tune."
