Around five in the afternoon, Lu Yinchu received a call from his mother, saying his father would return home early. If possible, she hoped he could bring the girl home first, to prevent his father's icy old face from frightening the poor girl!
A smile tugged at the corner of Lu Yinchu's mouth. He replied to his mother, "Mom, she might really get scared. Let's wait a few more days."
Lu Yinchu explained, "Mom, don't be too surprised. I am about…ten years older than her. However, I guarantee you she's a good girl. In the future, she'll be a good wife, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter-in-law…"
Xia Zhen seemed slightly taken aback and didn't know what to say. After clearing her throat, she asked, "So she's twenty-two this year?"
Lu Yinchu entered the elevator, and Mo Yan wisely chose to remain silent and avoid looking at him.
