Chapter 24 Lu Siye: Baby, your husband is rewarding you

Page 1 of 3

Several modified off-road vehicles blocked the main gate completely.

Seeing this, the driver immediately stopped, got out, and raised both hands. The whole sequence was smooth and practiced, as though he had rehearsed it countless times.

Even Lu Bofei was frightened witless by the sight of all those weapons.

For once, he was genuinely terrified.

Jia Zhong walked up to Lu Bofei’s car and tapped on the window.

“Second Master Lu? We meet again. Please, come with us.” His voice was filled with mockery and disdain.

Did they really think their Master Lu would not dare lay a hand on them?

This time, they were finished for good.

Lu Bofei’s legs trembled. Clearly, he knew Jia Zhong.

It seemed his eldest nephew knew everything now. It was over—completely over.

“I’ll count to three. If you don’t get out, Second Master, then I’ll…”

Before Jia Zhong could finish, Lu Bofei’s trembling hands forced the car door open.

“I—I’m coming out. I want to see Siyeon. I want to see the old master!”

If Chuyang had heard those words, he would certainly have praised Lu Bofei and Lu Xifeng for being true brother and sister.

Indeed, Lu Haotian—Lu Siyeon’s father—had been born to the old master’s first wife. The second and third children, Lu Bofei and Lu Xifeng, had both been born to his second wife.

Jia Zhong waved his hand, and Lu Bofei was immediately dragged away.

Several groups set off for the Lu family villa at the same time.

The moment Chu Wanning got out of the car, she ran inside.

“Qingbao! Qingbao!”

The next second, Lu Siqing shot toward her like a little rocket and threw himself straight into her arms.

“Boo-hoo, Sister-in-law, you’re finally back! I was so worried about you. Are you hungry? I had Butler Grandpa keep preparing food the whole time. You must be starving, right? Were you hurt? Were you scared?”

At the end, Lu Siqing even circled around Chu Wanning, carefully checking her from head to toe.

Lu Siyeon saw the scene the moment he entered.

“Lu Siqing, let go of your sister-in-law. She’s tired!” His voice carried a hint of jealousy.

He had not even had the chance to examine his own wife, yet this little brat had stolen her away.

Lu Siqing ignored him completely, though he clearly heard what he had said.

Taking Chu Wanning by the hand, he led her toward the dining table. “Sister-in-law, eat something, then go upstairs, take a bath, and get a good night’s sleep. I made you worry today.”

Lu Siqing sounded guilty.

Chu Wanning knew that Qingbao had always been sensible, but she had not expected him to think this way. He was only five years old. He should have been panicking and terrified. After all, he was the one who had been kidnapped.

Instead, the little boy was comforting her.

“All right, I’ll listen to Qingbao.” Chu Wanning pinched his soft, pale cheek and smiled.

“Mhm. Big Brother will definitely be busy tonight. If you’re scared, I can sleep with you!”

The moment he finished speaking, Lu Siyeon signaled for Lu Bei to take him away.

“Hey, hey, hey! Big Bad Wolf, what are you doing? Uncle Lu Bei, put me down!”

Lu Bei carried him away while Lu Siqing could do nothing but kick his short little legs wildly.

“Young Master, you have school tomorrow. It’s time for bed. Master Lu only needs to accompany Madam to dinner.”

With that, he headed straight for the elevator, leaving Lu Siqing no chance to resist.

“Ahhh! You’re all bullying me! Hmph! Boo-hoo, I want Sister-in-law!”

As the elevator doors closed, Lu Siqing’s voice was completely cut off.

Lu Siyeon walked over and sat beside Chu Wanning. His gaze was heated, but his voice was gentle as he placed a large hand on the back of her neck and lightly kneaded it.

“Wife, I’ll accompany you to sleep after dinner. Hmm?”

Remembering what Lu Siqing had just said, Chu Wanning asked, “Aren’t you going to deal with those people later?”

“No. Accompanying my wife is more important. Let those vermin reflect on their actions for the night.” Lu Siyeon ladled out a bowl of soup and placed it in front of her. “Have some, darling.”

Chu Wanning did not refuse again, and the two of them enjoyed a peaceful meal together.

“I’m full, darling.”

She took Lu Siyeon’s large hand and placed it on her stomach. “Look, I’ve eaten so much that I’ve gained weight.”

Lu Siyeon rose and lifted her into his arms, carrying her upstairs.

“You’re not fat. Your waist is far too thin.” Every time he held her, he was afraid he might break it.

“Hmph! Then shall we have a purely innocent night tonight?”

“No, darling. I want you to know just how much I love you.”

By then, they had reached the bedroom.

Chu Wanning remained caught on the words he had spoken—he loved her. It seemed he had never said that to her before.

Perhaps this ordeal had brought them closer, or perhaps Lu Siyeon now understood his feelings for her more clearly.

Either way, it was a good thing.

That night, Chu Wanning witnessed the full extent of Lu Siyeon’s passion. Apparently, he had been holding himself back before.

“Ayeon!”

“Call me husband!”

“Husband, no more!”

“Baby, your husband is rewarding you. Hmm?”

Chu Wanning: “…”

She was utterly spent.

After washing Chu Wanning clean, Lu Siyeon tucked her into bed and kissed her forehead before getting up and leaving the bedroom.

Chu Wanning vaguely sensed that he had gone, but her eyelids were far too heavy to lift. Besides, they were at the Lu residence, and nothing would happen to Lu Siyeon. She decided not to worry about him and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Lu Siyeon went downstairs and headed straight for the underground cells beneath the estate.

The dim, yellowish light added an eerie air to the place, while the smell of blood permeating the air stirred the bloodlust within anyone who entered.

Stepping through the darkness of night, Lu Siyeon advanced one step at a time. Like the King of Hell descending upon the world, he brought an even deeper chill to the already damp and freezing dungeon.

“Lu Siyeon, you unfilial wretch! I’m your own aunt!”

“How dare you treat me like this? If the old master finds out, he’ll never forgive you!”

“Ahh! Rats! Stay away from me! Stay away!”

Lu Siyeon stood outside the cell, looking down at the woman lying on the floor as though he were looking at a corpse.

Lu Xifeng no longer resembled a wealthy lady. Her hair was disheveled, blood marked her body, and her appearance was unbearable to look at.

“I’m sorry, Master Lu,” Chuyang said, lowering his head.

“She has enough strength to curse people. Clearly, the punishment was too light.”

Lu Siyeon tilted his head and glanced toward the cell next door. That one was satisfactory enough. Qian Chengzhi and Lu Bofei were both barely clinging to life.

“Yes. I’ll take care of it immediately.” Chuyang waved his hand.

Two men dressed in black unlocked the cell.

“Don’t come near me! Stay away!”

“Get away! Get away! I’m the eldest daughter of the Lu family! Get away from me!”

The men in black were clearly prepared. They shoved an unidentified object into the corner of Lu Xifeng’s mouth, then dragged her from the floor to the torture chamber.

“Record it and send it to the old master. Let him see the failure produced by his own parenting.”

“Yes!”

“Go back and rest. Tomorrow, summon the Twelve Months and introduce Madam to them. If she comes here, let her pass without question. Treat her as you would treat me. Whatever she says is my command.”

“Master Lu…”

Shouldn’t he think it over again?

Before Chuyang could say the rest, Lu Siyeon had already turned and walked away. He could not remain gone for too long. The smell of blood was overpowering, and he still had to take a shower before returning to hold his wife as they slept.

Chuyang watched his master’s departing back and ultimately said nothing more.

He had seen everything Madam had done at the chemical plant. He had to admit that a woman like her truly suited their Master Lu.

It was just that some people were probably destined for heartbreak.

Hopefully, they would be able to come to terms with it.
