Chapter 958: Chapter 957: Sister, These Are Our Dad and Mom
Lu Mian walked toward the ergency room, sensing a gentle gaze on her, and instinctively looked in that direction.
Their eyes t.
She saw Yun Zhishu.
Her heart was suddenly stirred.
It was a very beautiful aunt, with features sowhat similar to Yun Sang…
Before Lu Mian could take a second look, a figure stepped in between, blocking her view of Yun Zhishu.
Lu Yutian stood in front of Yun Zhishu, gently pushing the middle-aged woman’s arm, “Aunt, are you alright?”
Yun Zhishu snapped back to reality, the strange feeling in her heart dissipated.
“I’m fine.”
Lu Yutian didn’t know why Yun Zhishu had spaced out just now and didn’t think much of it, only casually adding a comnt.
“It was she who gave my brother the Nourishing Elixir. I really should have stopped Grandpa back then…”
In Lu Yutian’s mind, even if Yun Sang was montarily bewitched by Lu Mian, at least her clever uncle and aunt shouldn’t be. With Grandpa’s life hanging in the balance, the Lu Family needed soone to bla, soone responsible for this matter.
She hoped that person would be Lu Mian.
However, to her disappointnt, Yun Zhishu didn’t take her words to heart, rely glancing back at Lu Xun, with emotions in her eyes that Lu Yutian couldn’t comprehend.
Lu Yutian furrowed her brow, unable to guess her aning.
anwhile, Lu Mian and her group of five approached Yun Sang’s side.
Yun Sang ca over, “Grandpa Xiao, Mian, you’re all here. Grandpa is still in ergency care, and we’re not sure of the situation yet.”
Xiao Jianli nodded.
Yun Zhishu and Lu Xun also stepped forward to greet them.
“Uncle, why did you co along too?” Lu Xun said apologetically.
The Xiao Family and the Yun Family have been close-knit families, with good relations since their ancestors, continuing to this day, especially the generation of Yun Sang and Xiao Qimo, who are particularly close.
This has all been built on the strong foundation laid by their forefathers; the Xiao and Yun families have always been allies.
Therefore, Lu Xun and Yun Zhishu naturally knew Xiao Jianli, and no introduction was necessary.
Xiao Jianli didn’t stand on ceremony with them, shaking his head with a deep sigh, “I happened to be at Qimo’s place when I heard Old Lu had fainted, so I rushed over. These children are all very thoughtful and ca along.”
Xiao Qimo stood by his grandfather’s side, politely greeting, “Uncle Xun, Aunt Yun.”
Ye Jinwen followed suit, saying, “Uncle Xun, Aunt Yun.”
Lu Xun and Yun Zhishu nodded in acknowledgnt.
Xiao Jianli turned slightly, continuing, “This is my grandson’s fiancée, Lu Mian, and this is Mianmian’s good friend, Zero.”
Even at this ti, he didn’t forget to formally introduce Lu Mian and Ya Ling.
Just from this, it’s clear how highly Lu Mian was regarded in the old man’s heart. The saying “Love for a house extends to its crow” applies; Elder Xiao made such a formal introduction of Lu Mian’s friend, showing how much he valued Lu Mian.
At this mont, invisible as she was, Ya Ling curved her red lips, her heart ward, and her impression of the Xiao Family shot up.
She politely greeted them.
“Mianmian, these are Yun Sang’s parents. Just call them Uncle Xun and Aunt Yun, like Qimo does,” Xiao Jianli specifically emphasized.
Lu Mian nodded obediently, finally getting another chance to et Yun Zhishu’s gaze.
For so reason, that sudden thump in her heart resurfaced. It was an indescribable emotion, inexplicably tinged with a subtle sadness.
Subconsciously, she clutched at her chest, feeling bewildered by the emotion that was happening for the first ti.
She couldn’t identify it, only finding it strange.
A “Uncle Xun, Aunt Yun” almost escaped her lips, but Yun Sang quickly intervened, earnestly correcting, “Grandpa Xiao, she doesn’t need to call them like Xiao Qimo. Just call them what I do. Mian, these are our mom and dad.”
He said it so naturally, even knowing that his sister was adopted without any blood relations, he was willing to share his family and the love of their parents with her.
He had said before that he wouldn’t be a brother to Xiao Qimo, but wanted to be the most reliable family support for Lu Mian, his parents were Lu Mian’s parents.
Our mom and dad…
Xiao Jianli and Xiao Qimo exchanged a look, simultaneously pursing their lips.
Sigh, there’s no stopping it, let Lu Mian decide for herself.
Yun Zhishu and Lu Xun were a bit taken aback.
Lu Mian repeated “our mom and dad” dozens of tis in her mind, standing there dazed for a while before attempting to speak.
But she found her voice couldn’t co out.
No one knew what she wanted to call them.
Lu Mian herself didn’t know and ultimately couldn’t say it out loud.
Luckily, Yun Sang cleverly chid in with a teasing laugh, “My sister’s just nervous.”
This eting was certainly not planned. The unexpected reunion and sudden change in address naturally left one confused.
Yun Sang was very understanding of Lu Mian, reaching out to gently tousle the stray hair on her forehead, offering a quiet reassurance, “It’s okay, next ti we’ll do it sowhere else.”
Xiao Qimo’s gaze instantly laser-focused on Yun Sang’s hand, sweeping over it several tis.
Yun Sang completely ignored it.
Lu Yutian linked arms with Yun Zhishu, subtly withdrawing her sharpness.
At that mont, Yang Can and Yang Tao, who were standing guard at the ergency room door, did not join their conversation.
However, Yang Can couldn’t help but harbor so bla when he saw Lu Mian.
He lowered his head, grousing to his father Yang Tao, “The old man is still in there, situation unknown. How can Young Master be so close to an outsider?”
Yang Tao shook his head, signaling him to stop talking.
But Yang Can was slightly dissatisfied, “If it weren’t for her giving the old man the dicine, would this have happened?”
Their voices weren’t loud but were enough for everyone present to hear.
Yun Sang, with a darkened expression, imdiately scolded, “Don’t speak nonsense when things aren’t clear yet.”
“Young Master, you shouldn’t side with an outsider. If anything happens to the old man…”
“I gave the Nourishing Elixir, and I’ll take responsibility for whatever happens!”
“Young Master…”
Yun Sang shot Yang Can a glare, gently patting Lu Mian’s shoulder, his voice incomparably gentle and patient as he explained, “Don’t listen to their nonsense. It has nothing to do with you. I’m here!”
Lu Mian looked up, her tightened throat finally breaking through the blockage. She looked at Yun Sang, and in a soft, slightly hoarse voice, she gently spoke.
“Brother…”
This ti it wasn’t “Brother Yun,” nor was it “Brother God,” but simply “Brother.”
She didn’t care what others criticized her for, nor did she care about the false accusations, only seeing Yun Sang protect her so, she couldn’t help but call out.
“Hey, your brother’s here!”
Yun Sang’s joy was evident, his tense features softening. It was the first ti he heard Lu Mian call him that directly. His small hands didn’t know what to do, completely at a loss.
Finally, he tucked them into the pockets of his floral shorts, swaying slightly, and felt incredibly happy.
