Chapter 437 - He Is Clearly A Caring Guy
She slept uneasily as if she was having a nightmare. Cold sweats were formed on her forehead, it seemed like there were some on the corners of her eyes too.
Ye Shuyun cried her eyes out while she hugged onto a picture frame as Lu Yi stood behind her. Although he was emotionless, the pain hidden in his dark irises that flowed from his brows into his body could not be ignored.
He clenched both his hands strongly as if he was bearing something forcefully.
“Great. He’s like you now, both of you don’t have a father.” Yan Huan looked at the pair of mother and son as she laughed arrogantly. She stood in front of Lu Qin. She laughed at their misfortune as they cried.
The dead should be respected. She was acting inhumanely that way.
Her humanity had already perished ever since she married into the Lu family some time ago.
Lu Yi raised his face suddenly, his dark eyes glaring at Yan Huan. At that moment, his body was tense as he pursed his colourless thin lips. Yan Huan could only see the anger beneath his eyes, but she didn’t realize the pain and regretful, deep love hidden inside them.
Ye Shuyun hugged onto the frame tightly. A middle-aged man in a military attire was in the picture. He looked very similar to Lu Yi. They had the same eyes, the same rigidness, and the same uprightness.
This was Lu Yi’s father, Lu Jin.
Yan Huan wanted to mock them more. However, a sadness came out of nowhere, causing a lump to form in her throat and her eyes to water. No, no, it can’t be, it can’t be like this. There must be a mistake. There must be some kind of mistake somewhere.
“Huanhuan, Huanhuan...”
Someone was calling for her. That voice was familiar.
Wake up, she must wake up, she had to wake up. She did not want to stay in her dream, a terrifying dream.
Huanhuan, wake up. Lu Yi patted Yan Huan’s face lightly. She was not in good condition. She was crying with her eyes closed. I wonder what was she dreaming of that made her cry like that and sweated all over.
Was it a terrible dream?
Yan Huan finally opened both her eyes and sniffled. She felt awful and distressed.
“Good girl, don’t be scared. It was just a dream.”
Lu Yi rubbed on her face with his fingers while he comforted her, “Good girl, don’t be scared, it was a nightmare, it was just a nightmare. You’re alright now since you woke up.” He was worried about her. She had been having nightmares all this while. She would sometimes cry while she dreamed and he wouldn’t know what happened in her dream.
Yan Huan sniffled, her throat felt awful. She wanted to say something but she didn’t know how to start.
She shook her head without saying anything.

“Good girl, it’s okay.” Lu Yi sat up, took her into his arms and comforted her like she was a child.
Yan Huan shook her head again. She buried her face into Lu Yi’s arms as she held onto his clothes.
It is not a dream, not a dream. What do I do? It is not a dream.
What do I do? Lu Yi, tell me, what am I supposed to do? What are you supposed to do? What are we going to do?
“It’s okay, dreams will always end when you wake up, everything will be alright.”
Lu Yi caressed Yan Huan’s hair. Do not be scared, everything will be over. There is nothing in this world that cannot be solved, unless if you do not want to leave the dream.
Yan Huan raised her eyes from Lu Yi’s shoulder. She was staring at the wedding photograph which was recently taken by both of them on the wall silently. That moment, she saw the warmth and love in his eyes.
Yes, don’t be scared. There is no need to be scared. She told herself that she was not afraid. Nothing bad was happening at that moment. Lu Yi’s father was still alive, Lu Yi’s family was fine. She can do it, right?
She could marry Lu Yi to stay away from Lu Qin, the dork. Also, Yi Ling didn’t die, she was married instead. She was having a baby and going to become a mother. So, she could also help save Lu Yi’s father and not let him die just like that or Ye Shuyun would lose her husband and Lu Yi would lose his father.
They can’t lose anyone in the family.
“We are going back to my house for dinner.” Lu Yi pressed his forehead against hers as he was curious whether she was not feeling well or had a fever. Fortunately, she was well even though her complexion was poor and she looked pale.
However, He Yibin mentioned that Yan Huan was having serious anemia and he knew that it was because of him. Yet, her body was well, she had to get in a fight with him every day to train herself. She was a violent woman.
Nonetheless, it was clear that her complexion was not good today.
“Alright.” Yan Huan nodded. However, some unmelted worry could be seen in her eyes when nobody was looking. How could she keep forgetting this? She realized that she forgot many things. The nightmares were the ones that kept reminding her of these.
Ye Shuyun and Lu Jin were already waiting for them when Lu Yi brought Yan Huan to the Lu family’s house.
Lu Yi held Yan Huan’s hand when they entered the house. He changed his shoes before he took out a pair of ladies’ slippers from the shoe rack and placed them in front of her.
Yan Huan stuffed her feet into the warm and soft slippers before she held Lu Yi’s hand tight. Their actions shocked the maids in the Lu family’s house. Lu Yi was never the type of guy who would take good care of others. He was too stiff, he didn’t even like to smile back in the days, how could he take care of a woman? When the women introduced by Ye Shuyun came to their house, Lu Yi never served tea for them voluntarily, not because he was impolite, but because of his stiff attitude. Looking at it now, it didn’t seem like he was stiff, he was clearly a caring guy.
“Brother, you’re back. Such a coincidence, it’s been a while since we’ve met.”
Lu Qin walked over from a distance. It was unclear whether he passed by coincidentally or he did it intentionally. However, there was always a fake mask on his face, he was smiling without intention.
This was known as hiding a dagger behind a smile.
Does he really think that people wouldn’t notice? Yan Huan only realized that Lu Qin who always thought he was the smartest and most calculative one, was actually the dumbest. His thoughts and plots were always seen through by Lu Yi even if he never revealed them. It seemed like Lu Yi was taking something into consideration. Yan Huan didn’t know what Lu Yi was thinking in her previous life, but she knew it now. He was thinking on behalf of her, he didn’t want to hurt her. Or else, Lu Qin wouldn’t have fallen from such a high position and lost all his reputation near the end of her previous life.
The best actor who went to jail for his whole life.
She lowered her head and played with Lu Yi’s fingers. She rubbed her two fingers on his thumb. She was sick of Lu Qin’s face. His acts disgusted her.
