“Your grand is waiting for us?” Jenny says in a hurry so that she can be heard clearly.
The servant understands what Jenny means and nods hurriedly, “Mrs. Lu is very stubborn. She insists on waiting for you to come back to drink the health soup. If you drink it earlier, Mrs. Lu will go to rest earlier.”
“I see,” Jenny looks at Luke helplessly, “It's not to blame them. I come back too late tonight. And in the future, I will come back earlier.”
“How do you know that I'm going to blame them?”
Luke looks at Jenny.
Jenny shrugs. "It's quite normal. I've been living in the Flower House for almost two months. You usually turn to blame the servants in such situation.”
“Usually? How many times have you seen?”
Luke asks seriously.
In his memory, he seldom talks to the servants. What’s more, there is a housekeeper in the house, and it is the housekeeper who teaches the servants.
Jenny waves, "Let it go. I go upstairs first, and you go to ask your grandma to go back to the room to rest. Please don't tell her about my knee.”
Luke looks at her bandaged knee.
She is so careful today. Though she is reckless, she cares about Mrs.Lu so much.
Jenny goes upstairs. But Luke stands at the top of the stairs for a while, making sure that the servant takes Jenny upstairs and goes into the bedroom. Then hearing the movement of the sofa in the living room, he walks in with quick steps.
Squinting, Mrs. Lu takes off her reading glasses and yawns at him.
“Have you had your meal? Don't you say you would come back for dinner this evening?”
When mentioning this topic, Mrs.Lu feels unhappy.
"We have had dinner outside. And Jenny is so tired that I ask her to go upstairs first and drink the soup before going to the bed. And now I will help you go back to your room to have a rest."
“Well? Why doesn’t she come to see me today when coming back?”
Mrs. Lu doubts, “Do you lie to me? Does Jenny come back with you?”
Luke sighs helplessly. "Ling sends Jenny upstairs. If you don't believe me, please wait for Ling to come down to ask her.
“I want to see her by myself. She has been outside for a whole day. I have to make sure that my grandson is safe.” Mrs.Lu puts down her reading glasses, and wants to stand up and goes upstairs.
“Now, you have a grandchild and don't love me anymore?!”
Mrs.Lu shakes when hearing his such words.
How many years has she not heard such words from Luke?
Although the tone is still cold, but the last time he said such pyrotechnical words is at his childhood when getting together with his brother. At that time, Luke asked her whether she preferred his brother because his brother was more excellent.
“All right, all right, I give in. Now you're jealous of your wife.”
She is so relieved now. for so many years, she’s afraid that her precious grandson would be lost in the shadow of the past.
Now it seems that Jenny helps change him a lot.
The night wind blows lightly against the windowpanes.
Jenny sits in front of the bathtub, felling puzzled at her injured legs.
I'm afraid it's difficult to have a good bath.
Her legs can't touch the water, but today she has my hair set, so she must have hair washed. What’s more, and she is sweating all over when she dances. What a upset thing it is.
Just wondering, she hears the sound of opening and closing door. The footsteps sound heavy.
She feels nervous and then goes to check the bathroom door latch.
Fortunately, it's closed.
