Chapter 223 You are biased
When Shen Lan heard her phone ringing, she clicked it and took a look. Her eyes were instantly filled with smiles.
Send a message: [Did you cheat Lu Yunqing out of this? ]
Jin Yu replied with an emoticon of a "villain with his hands on his hips".
Shen Lan couldn't help but be curious: [How did you trick her? ]
Jin Yu sent a screenshot of the chat.
After reading it, Shen Lan couldn't help but hold his forehead.
It was a huge loss. All the bamboo shoots on the mountain were taken away by Jin Yu.
Shen Lan couldn't help but dig her toes into the ground when she thought of Lu Yunqing's outfit as Jin Yu had suggested. Her embarrassing habit of feeling sorry for others struck again, but to be honest, she was inexplicably looking forward to it.
At this time, in the Lu family study.
Lu Chuan was trying to calm Zhou Fang down: "Don't worry, I'll let you know as soon as anything happens. Just focus on playing the role of Shen An and don't let Shen Lan find out."
When Lu Yunfan heard this, his fingers moved slightly, and he lowered his head with a slightly unnatural look in his eyes.
Lu Chuan didn't notice his abnormality and rubbed his temples. "I've been tired from work these days and I'm not in good spirits. I haven't seen you because I'm recuperating at home. Don't think too much."
Hearing this, Lu Yunfan quickly looked up and asked with concern: "Dad, why didn't you tell me? If I had known, I would have come back earlier. Did you go to the hospital to check? What were the test results?"
His expression was worried, his voice was anxious, and his eyes were full of regret.
Lu Chuan was very touched by his concern, but he said seriously, "I've checked him out. He's taking Chinese medicine to recuperate. He's fine. I asked you to go to the resort for a mission, not just for sightseeing..."
When he said this, his eyes narrowed slightly. His sharp eyes seemed even sharper after losing weight. "Shen Lan also went there. You didn't say anything to her, did you?"
Lu Yunfan shook his head: "No, how could I dare? If you beat me again, I'll be dead. I've also figured it out. You're doing all this for my own good. There's no need for me to disobey your orders just because of Shen Lan, an outsider."
Lu Chuan was even more satisfied after hearing this: "That's right. No matter who you marry in the future, you must put the Lu family first. Without the Lu family, you are nothing. Only with the Lu family as your backing can you be called 'Master Lu'."
As he spoke, his eyes swept towards Zhou Fang: "He is now acting as Shen An. Ask him how he is treated outside. Without the Shen family, who would still recognize the name 'Shen An'?"
There is no need to ask this question. Just look at Tao Lan's attitude just now and you will know.
Lu Yunfan nodded obediently: "Dad, you are right."
Lu Chuan smiled, and just as he was about to speak, he felt dizzy and frowned: "Yun Fan, I'm old, my spirit is not as good as before, and my physical strength can't keep up. Go to the company tomorrow, and I will give you a few important projects to do."
Lu Yunfan was excited in his heart, but on the surface he was conflicted: "Dad, without you here, I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of? You're already thirty, it's time for you to become independent. Your leg injury delayed you for four years, now it's time to shoulder the burden."
"But..." Lu Yunfan just started to speak, and Lu Chuan waved his hand impatiently: "It's settled. Go out and see if my medicine is ready."
Lu Yunfan could only turn around and leave. As he left, he heard Lu Chuan asking about the details of Zhou Fang and Shen Lan's relationship.
He slowed down his pace and listened, becoming more and more annoyed the more he listened.
Shen Lan is usually very smart, but he just can't figure it out when it comes to Shen An.
Lu Yunfan went downstairs with a gloomy face and saw Shen Lan sitting on the sofa. He wanted to go over and talk to her, but Tao Lan suddenly appeared and grabbed his arm.
"You want to put your warm face on the cold butt again, are you cheap?"
Tao Lan changed her clothes and reapplied her makeup. She looked unhappy and said, "Listen to mom and find someone else to like. Shen Lan is really not worthy of you."
"She's plain-looking, dresses in a tacky way, was dull and boring before, and now she's sharp-tongued and full of lies. What's so good about liking a girl like this?"
Lu Yunfan was helpless: "Mom, you are prejudiced against her. Why don't you see the good side of her? Shen Lan is quiet, well-behaved, sensible and kind. She didn't hold any grudges against me for what we did to her before, and she even took care of me, a paralyzed person, despite all the past grudges."
When he said this, his mind was filled with Shen Lan's gentle and silent appearance during those four years, and his heart softened.
"When you all gave up on me, she was the only one who didn't. I was too proud and stubborn. I judged her based on her appearance and thought she was not good enough. I thought she was using a favor to force me to marry her. I assumed the worst of her. It's all my fault."
"I've let her down, she's never let me down."
Tao Lan listened with an unnatural look in her eyes.
He was right in saying one thing.
After Lu Yunfan became disabled, she did have the idea of giving up on him, and even wanted to have another boy before she reached menopause.
She had no choice. At first, she was heartbroken about her son's disability and blamed God for his injustice. But as time went on, Lu Yunfan's temper worsened, he became hysterical at the slightest provocation, and he was filled with low pressure and negative energy. She really couldn't stand it.
I don’t know how Shen Lan endured these four years.
Tao Lan looked at Shen Lan again, with less disgust in her eyes, but she was still unwilling to let her be her daughter-in-law.
She always felt that her son deserved better.
"Yunfan, your father's medicine is ready. Please help me take it to the study."
When the word "medicine" was mentioned, Lu Yunfan's expression tensed. He pulled Tao Lan to a secluded place and asked in a low voice, "Mom, was it you who caused my dad's sudden illness? What did you do?"
