"That's true. Our Lu family's daughter doesn't have to worry about being unwanted." Mr. Lu was the first to see the light. He nodded and turned to Lu Yuqing. "Alright, I won't force you."
Lu Yuqing secretly gave Lu Xingzhi a thumbs up and praised him. However, Lu Xingzhi did not notice her actions. Instead, he took advantage of when everyone was talking to his second uncle to quietly pour the untouched milk from his cup into Jiang Yao's cup. Then, he picked up his cup and went to the kitchen.
Lu Yuqing wanted to say something, but she hesitated. Initially, she wanted to complain to Jiang Yao, but she felt that Lu Xingzhi had just helped her out of her predicament after she thought about it. Therefore, it was not right for her to burn that bridge. She suppressed the urge to complain.
After Lu Xingzhi came back from the kitchen, he sat back down beside Jiang Yao. He hugged Jiang Yao's waist with one hand, and with the other hand, he picked up the milk on the table and placed it in front of Jiang Yao to urge her to drink it. "Drink it while it's hot."
Jiang Yao acknowledged his request and did not suspect anything. She lowered her head and gulped a few mouthfuls. Then, she suddenly stopped. She looked at the milk in her hand and exclaimed, "Eh? I drank almost all of it just now. Why is there still so much?"
When Lu Yuqing heard that, she almost choked on an apple.
"I saw it! My brother poured his milk into your cup, Sister-in-law! He did not even drink the milk that Auntie poured for him!" Lu Xiaoxiao raised her hand high and shouted excitedly, "Brother doesn't like to drink milk, goat's milk, and all kinds of milk. He also doesn't like things that are milk-flavored. "
"I want your sister-in-law to drink more; she's far too thin."
Lu Xingzhi patted Jiang Yao's head lovingly. "Her studies are taxing on her brain, and she's been working hard recently."
"Thank you so much for that!"
Jiang Yao gritted her teeth.
