Chapter 1028: How Thick-skinned
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
“He’s not childish like you, nor is he as silly or stupid as you are.” Ye Shuyun’s knife-like words were obviously targeting the hole in Ye Xinyu’s heart.
Ye Shuyun only remembered what Ye Xinyu said which had been ignored by her. Wait, Lu Qin is missing?
“Wait, Xinyu, what did you say?”
“What’s missing? Who’s missing?”
“Who else? Lu Qin, of course! I have no idea what on earth they are up to. It was said to be a disappearance but who knows what the hell they are scheming and what they are asking my grandfather to do for them this time!” Ye Xinyu took another mouthful of rice before taking Xunxun’s small spoon, scooped some rice and fed it into Xunxun’s tiny mouth. Xunxun opened her mouth wide and ate it in one bite obediently.
“How did he go missing?” Ye Shuyun frowned, “A large, living adult, missing?”
“Who knows. That’s their own business, none of mine.” Ye Xinyu added in his heart, not to mention that since the matter is related to Sun Yuhan, then it is really none of my business.
Ye Shuyun had the same thought. With regards to the disappearance of Lu Qin, she could only say that it was similar to the scenario in the story of the boy who cried wolf. It was not that Lu Qin had never done that before. He had been using this tactic to make the elders in the family to do some work for him like when he wanted to force Grandpa Ye to hand over one of Linlang’s films to them but Yi Ling disagreed because the Lei family was not the Lu family after all and Madam Lei did not grow up alongside the Ye family. Therefore, it was clear that they did not need to give any face to the Ye family. So, the Ye family did not get to take advantage of the Lei family in the end. Anyway, Ye Jianguo’s status was nothing of use for the Lei family, the film was still Linlang’s, the leading actor and actress were from Linlang. Of course, the film was quite successful and allowed Linlang to obtain quite a number of awards. Linlang had been on the rise in the span of a few years although Yan Huan was not involved in many films.
Lu Qin and Sun Yuhan were, as a matter of fact, within the same industry. With such a huge and tempting company like Linlang in front of them, who could resist not to take control of it? Even if they did not want to take control, the least they would do was to take advantage of it.
Unexpected to them, Yan Huan had already thought of this when she was establishing Linlang so it did not belong to the Lu family and had nothing to do with the Lu family. On the other hand, she placed Linlang under Yi Ling’s name. It did not matter whether it was the previous Lu Qin with Su Muran or Lu Qin with Sun Yuhan, they never succeeded in scheming for Linlang.
Who knew what was the truth behind the alleged disappearance of Lu Qin? Perhaps it was a show put on by those two and Ye Jianguo was pulling the strings from behind.
As for Lu Qin who was alleged missing, Ye Shuyun and Ye Xinyu had never even taken him seriously. Ye Shuyun even forgot about him and the matter of his disappearance.
When Qin Xiaoyue came searching for him, she was sobbing and wailing about how her own son was missing and she asked for Lu Yi’s help to aid her in searching for her son as Lu Yi had many connections in this particular area. He also knew Lei Qingyi, the Director of the National Security Department. If they wanted to look for someone, they could definitely track them.
Ye Shuyun and the nanny carried the three children into the house to prevent the kids from getting sick from inhaling the germs in the toxic air. Now that Qin Xiaoyue was staying with them, her toxic saliva was flying around and filled the air with germs.
Qin Xiaoyue was still wailing out there. She only came to this house as she had something to ask of Lu Jin and Lu Yi. Ye Xinyu did not understand, how could such a shameless woman exist? How could she have the audacity to come over and ask for their help when she nearly harmed his aunt previously? He had never met such a thick-skinned woman.
Lu Qin, Sun Yuhan, and Su Muran who went overseas for medical treatment, whose life or death was unknown were gone. Even the Su family had started to be a little more low-key ever since then and they had started to become more conservative in their business. They would even make a turn and go the other way when they meet the Ye family in the streets so that they would never have to face them.
Su Muran, the thick-skinned woman had left but how could he forget that there were still another two like her present?
Qin Xiaoyue was still crying and stating that Lu Qin had been missing for quite a number of days. They tried looking everywhere but they still could not find him.
“Second Aunt, why don’t you go back first? I’ll contact you when I find him.”
Lu Yi checked his watch, he could not afford to waste any time here as he had to go to the procuratorate. He would definitely look into Lu Qin’s disappearance but Qin Xiaoyue really did not know what being shameless meant. It seemed like she would not leave unless he found Lu Qin.
Lu Yu did not have the time to sit around and comfort Qin Xiaoyue, he could not make himself say those words either.
Qin Xiaoyue was well aware that walking into Lu Jin’s house and causing such a commotion was not the smartest idea. However, she was willing to throw away her pride for her son, Lu Qin.
She stayed there brazenly and insisted that she would wait until Lu Yi found Lu Qin.
Ye Shuyun was so furious upon hearing Qin Xiaoyue’s actions that she wanted to smash some plates.
She had seen many shameless people, but she had never in her life seen someone so brazenly shameless.
Little Xunxun extended her small hands and tugged on Ye Shuyun’s clothes.
“No angry.”
“Ah!” Ye Shuyun hugged Little Xunxun out of surprise, “Our Little Xunxun just learned some new words. Yes, no angry, no angry, Grandma isn’t angry. We are not going to be angry.”
Xunxun smiled with squinted eyes and looked up at her grandma lovingly. The child’s innocent smile really made Ye Shuyun’s previously irritated heart relax little by little.
Ye Shuyun held Xunxun’s small hand while allowing her to walk by herself. When she ended up downstairs eventually and saw Qin Xiaoyue who was sitting on her home’s sofa as though she was the mistress of the house, she felt uncomfortable as if her heart was being clawed by a cat.
What, does she really think that this is her home now?
Obviously, Qin Xiaoyue also noticed Ye Shuyun. If this had been in the past, she would have attacked her with sarcastic words but she had to be cautious and careful with her words now. She might never be able to find her son if she spoke the wrong words.
Lu Qin was her only son in this lifetime. She would lose all her hopes and prospects for the rest of her life if she lost her son.
“Ah, isn’t this Xunxun?”
Qin Xiaoyue stood up hastily and put on a face. Even though she was smiling on the outside, there was some unspeakable jealousy.
Three children in one pregnancy? Was she really a pig?
Xunxun seemed a little scared. She pressed her small body into her grandmother’s arms, hugged her grandmother’s legs and looked away. It was clear that she did not really like Qin Xiaoyue.
Ye Shuyun picked Xunxun up. Xunxun was still pressing her little head into her grandmother’s embrace.
“Don’t you have a house of your own? Why don’t you go stay there? You scared my Little Xunxun.”
