Lu Jiaxin found it strange that Lu Jiazong had agreed to adoption, thinking that with his upbringing, he should be on board with divorce instead. "What did your mom say?" she wondered.
"My mom didn't say anything."
That was even stranger. In their family, it was usually the second sister-in-law who made the decisions, yet this time she had uncharacteristically remained silent.
Jiaxin suspected there was more to the story but didn't want to bother figuring it out. After all, it was Lu Jiazong's family affair, and as a cousin from another branch, it wasn't her place to say much—otherwise, she risked offending everyone. "Whether Lu Yun goes for divorce or adoption, you guys should stay out of it and focus on running your noodle shop."
"I understand, Cousin," he replied.
The next day, after getting off from school, Lu Jiaxin returned to the villa and not long after, Nie Zhan arrived, carrying more than a dozen boxes of nourishing supplements.
