Chapter 520 He is the child left behind by the person I love most.
After spending a few days together, Xu Yu'an discovered that Lu Jinchuan was always being criticized by his mother. No matter what he did, he was met with complaints, and being beaten was a common occurrence.
His little eyes darted around, and he mimicked his mother (Ilya) by launching into a praise tirade.
As Lu Jinchuan ate by himself, Xu Yu'an clapped his hands and praised, "Brother is so great! He can eat by himself with chopsticks now."
Lu Jinchuan almost spat out the food in his mouth.
"What are you doing?"
"Brother is awesome!"
"?"
Fang Hui wasn't surprised, because when Xu Yu'an was learning to use chopsticks, Ilya had praised him in the same way.
Those eyes, those azure eyes just like his mother's, revealed the same expression Ilya had back then.
Fang Hui's hand holding the chopsticks stopped moving. Her eyes were lowered, and she silently murmured a name: "Orseya de Ilya".
Luo Shiyu could roughly guess what she was saying from her lip movements.
[If I remember correctly, Ilya only mentioned her full name to Fang Hui during their initial self-introduction.]
[I didn't expect her to remember it. It seems that Ilya must be very important to Fang Hui, otherwise she wouldn't be taking such good care of her child.]
【Ouch~ I feel like they're going to stab me in the back at the end.】
The screen jumps again and again.
While Lu Jinchuan was washing his face, Xu Yu'an praised him, "Brother is awesome!"
"There's nothing to brag about."
While Lu Jinchuan was writing, Xu Yu'an exclaimed, "Brother is so amazing!"
"It's just writing. Want to learn? I'll teach you."
During Lu Jinchuan's class, Xu Yu'an praised, "Brother is so smart!"
"That's right, don't you even know who your brother is?"
Xu Yu'an would occasionally ask Lu Jinchuan for help, and then kiss his cheek to express her gratitude.
Lu Jinchuan initially disliked it.
"What the hell? It's all saliva, it's disgusting."
Later, she would point to her own cheek and ask, "Come here, kiss my brother."
Lu Jinchuan received from Xu Yu'an all the things he hadn't received from his family: being needed, being affirmed, and being loved.
As he grew older, he gradually developed a distorted love for Xu Yu'an.
Six years later, Lu Jinchuan turned twenty-one. He did not die before the age of twenty as the mysterious man had said.
Shi Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief and shifted her focus from encouraging Lu Jinchuan to study hard to encouraging him to work hard and manage the company well.
Lu Jinchuan felt a headache coming on. Taking care of Xu Yu'an was his only way to relieve stress, which included cooking for him himself.
"Come on, open your mouth."
"Ah~"
Lu Jinchuan fed Xu Yu'an the rice from the spoon, then asked, "Is it good?"
"good to eat!"
Does An'an like her brother?
"like!"
"Then kiss your brother." Lu Jinchuan touched his lips and continued, "Kiss here."
Fang Hui covered Xu Yu'an's lips from behind as she approached, pulling him away from Lu Jinchuan's embrace.
"No, An'an, you can't kiss."
Lu Jinchuan looked disgusted and clicked his tongue.
"Fang Hui, why do you always ruin my plans?"
“An’an is still young and doesn’t understand what you mean by ‘like’. Don’t mislead him.”
"You've been here for six years, haven't you? You haven't left this villa in six years. Do you really expect An'an to marry someone else in the future? You tricked him with a piece of candy. It would be more stable for him to marry me."
"Do you know what you're saying? You are his..." Fang Hui swallowed the words "his enemy's child," as she didn't want Xu Yu'an to know about what happened back then.
"Speak up, why aren't you saying anything?"
"It's nothing, it's just not allowed, An'an is still too young."
"That's easy, I'll just wait until he comes of age. Let me do the math... it'll be another 7 years, I'll be 28 by then, which is still okay."
"..."
"I wonder if An'an will think I'm old by then." Lu Jinchuan smiled and pinched Xu Yu'an's still chubby little face, saying to him, "Grow up quickly, don't keep me waiting too long."
Xu Yu'an blinked blankly, then smiled and replied, "Okay~"
"An'an is such a good girl~"
Having confirmed Lu Jinchuan's despicable thoughts, and seeing him sleeping in the same bed with Xu Yu'an, Fang Hui felt that things couldn't continue like this.
After Xu Yu'an fell asleep, she walked to the bedside like a wandering ghost, stood there, and called out, "Lu Jinchuan."
Lu Jinchuan opened one eye and said impatiently, "Why are you calling me dad?"
"..."
"Don't always look at me like that, as if you want to kill me. After all these years, you haven't changed at all."
“An’an is not a little child anymore. It’s time for you two to sleep in separate beds.”
"We're both guys, what are we afraid of? You're a girl, yet you stay in my room every day, and I haven't said anything."
"..."
"Don't worry, you're always watching me closely, I can't do anything."
"There will always be a time when I leave."
"What can you do in a minute or two?"
"What if."
"Fang Hui, I'm a normal man. That little bit of time isn't enough for me to solve the problem."
"uncertain."
"Huh? How much money did An'an's parents actually give you back then? Is it worth it for you to go against me like this?"
“This isn’t about money.” Fang Hui’s gaze remained fixed on the sleeping Xu Yu’an. After a long while, when Lu Jinchuan had fallen asleep, she said, “He is the child left behind by the person I love most.”
The night was quiet here, and no one responded to her.
As the years passed, in the summer when Xu Yu'an was about to come of age, red swellings would inexplicably appear on his neck. Fang Hui initially thought it was insect bites, but when the bites kept occurring in the same few places, she realized something was wrong.
When asked privately, Xu Yu'an blushed and stammered for a long time, unable to say anything.
Fang Hui knew that Lu Jinchuan was responsible. To confirm this, she pretended to go out to get something while the two were talking in the study.
In fact, they were eavesdropping outside the door.
"Fang Hui is gone. Come on, give your brother a kiss now."
"Tsugawa-kun, isn't this the wrong thing to do?"
What did Fang Hui say to you?
"No."
“An’an, no one likes a child who lies. You want Tsukawa-nii to like you more, right? Be good~ tell me everything she told you.”
"Sister Huihui didn't say anything, she just asked me how I got the red bump on my neck."
"What did you say?"
"I didn't say anything."
"An'an is such a good girl~ Brother will give you a reward, open your mouth."
"Hmm~"
Fang Hui burst through the door and saw the two kissing. She grabbed a chair and threw it at Lu Jinchuan.
"No!" Xu Yu'an spread his arms and stood between the two.
Fang Hui's hand froze in mid-air as she yelled at Xu Yu'an, "Get out of the way!" That was the first time she had ever shouted at Xu Yu'an.
"I do not want!"
Lu Jinchuan wrapped his arms around Xu Yu'an's waist from behind, looked at Fang Hui provocatively, and said to her in spoken language, "I won."
"Do you know what you're doing? You're protecting your..." The child of your enemy, Fang Hui still couldn't say those words. Every time she met those blue eyes, Fang Hui would think of Ilya.
She couldn't bear to hurt Xu Yu'an, and she didn't want Ilya's child to live with hatred for the rest of her life. She swallowed all her grievances and resentment, put down her chair, and went out to calm down.
I knew it!
