This year's New Year is earlier than in previous years. New Year's Day has passed, and the New Year will be celebrated in a flash. On New Year's Eve, the Lu family gathers at the old house for dinner and stays at the New Year.

Lu Jinghan has hated this party since he was a child.

At the meeting of the relatives of Chunlu family, all the aunts and ladies gathered together, either praising their children or discussing whose gossip.

Since childhood, he has no mother, and his father has raised a mistress and an illegitimate child outside. Lu Jinghan, who is still with the grandfather of the old house, has been abandoned by Lu Jinghan, and has become the objects of sympathy and care for all relatives every year.

"Oh, it's so pitiful. I've lost my mother at a young age."

"Sheng Lin is the same. Such a cute brother and sister doesn't care about it, how can you bear it?"

"What if I really marry my stepmother, what will happen to my two children?"

...

However, this is just the beginning. In front of the brother and sister, how did Lu Jinghan's father marry and met his mistress outside, how did his relationship with Lu Jinghan's mother break down, how did he have an illegitimate son, how did his mistress be arrogant, etc.

Year after year, over and over again, talk endlessly.

It is undoubtedly peeling off the scars in the hearts of the brother and sister, and feeling the pain of hurting their mother again and again when they were young.

Standing among relatives, not only do they feel careless, but they are more lonely and helpless. Gradually, both of them understand that these people seem to be sympathetic, but in fact they are secretly ridiculed and gloating.

This situation became even worse until Lu Jinghan became more and more outstanding and was appointed by Lu Ye as the successor to the next person of the Lu Group.

Why are children without fathers and mothers better than children who grow up in their own hands?

It’s different to grow up next to the old man. He looks quite cold, but I don’t know why he pleases the old man.

You can get the Lu family by marrying Miss Xie. This is a confused man.

...

Psychology has become jealousy, hatred, and even a secret battle.

The brother and sister were annoyed by these people, and they were full of anger every year torment the New Year.

But today is different.

In the morning, Lu Jinghan received a call from the old house. Lu Lao told him to bring Xiao Mu over to have supper when he came.

The Lu family’s New Year’s Eve family dinner has never been given to outsiders so far. Even Li Hui, who has been with Lu Shenglin for almost twenty years, and their son Lu Jingxuan have never attended it.

The old man’s meaning is self-evident.

Lu Jinghan drove the car in a brisk mood, with Jing Yi sitting behind him and Xia Xiaomu sitting next to him.

"So suddenly, I was not prepared for anything." Xia Xiaomu, who was suddenly called to attend the family dinner, asked sadly.

"I want to give my grandfather a painting, but I'm preparing for the European art exhibition recently. I don't have a single work in my hand. Wouldn't it be nice to go so empty?"

"No, just have a meal. You will be happy when you go."

Jing Yi sat in the back of the car: "Brother Xiao Mu, if you ask about the relatives of the old house, you will say that you were invited by grandpa. If they talk to you, don't take care of them."

Xia Xiaomu:??

I felt even more uneasy: "He, what will they say?"

Lu Jinghan: "Don't listen to Jingyi's random talk. You will be by my side at that time, and no one dares to say anything about you."

The banquet venue is still in the living room of the last birthday party, but the scale is much smaller and the atmosphere is much more relaxed. Ten tables are placed in the center, and pre-dinner appetizers, wine, drinks and various snacks have been placed.

In addition, they are all their own family, so they don’t have to care about etiquette. The children shuttled around every corner of the hall, running around laughing and laughing.

The adults had a group of people, and they had a happy chat, and it seemed that they were having fun.

But after Lu Jinghan entered the venue, someone shouted: "Oh, this reluctance is coming."

As soon as he finished speaking, the decibels on the field gradually fell down, and for a moment they were approaching quiet. Almost left and right eyes swept over.

Xia Xiaomu:...

He knew that Lu Jinghan and Lu family had always been a "focus on" existence, but this was too exaggerated.

Everyone's eyes were different, from ordinary, ridiculed, contemptuous, questioned, and looked at people as if they were lit up on their backs and their bodies were furrowed.

An invisible barrier was formed in the hall, automatically separating the brother and sister.

Lu Jinghan pulled Xiao Mu down and lowered his head and whispered: "Don't care, go, go find grandpa."

Xiao Mu looked back at Jing Yi. The little girl raised her head and followed her as if proudly, but her eyes that were always playful were gloomy.

I felt sad, no wonder both brothers and sisters in the book went astray and fell in love with someone, even if I gave everything, I was willing to do it.

I have lived in such a Lu family since I was a child. I seem to be a member of a big family, but I am actually growing up lonely and helpless.

In fact, I want real care more than anyone else.

Growing up in such an environment, as long as someone gives them a little bit of true love, the two of them will be able to moisten their hearts.

The middle-aged aunt who was closest to them had a false smile on her face:

"Oh, Jing Han, who is this person? Our Lu family's New Year's Eve banquet is never allowed to bring outsiders. If it were assistants or subordinates, it would be time to go on now."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Yue came over.

As the eldest aunt of the Lu family, she has the highest status among the Lu family’s girls and knows the most.

In addition, Lu Jinghan has not concealed the relationship between Xia Xiaomu and the others during this period, and the two have gone in and out in a high-profile manner.

It has long attracted Wu Yue's attention and has also discovered the relationship between the two.

She walked over and glanced at her eyes: "You don't know who this person is. A genius painter who was taken care of by the old man before. Jing Han was very concerned about him. I heard that he had bought a house for people."

The look of words in the words made Xia Xiaomu feel uncomfortable.

Wu Yue curled his lips: "Jing Han is capable. Now most of the positions in the upper class of Lu are taken over by your people. When the board of directors is held in March, the meeting will be voted for elections. President Lu is not yet in his pocket.

However, my aunt advises you to have a degree in everything, and be capable. If this person is unfilial, what if you take over Lu’s family, it will still be looked down upon by outsiders.”

Lu Jinghan stood forward and blocked Xia Xiaomu's body halfway: "Auntie, why am I not filial?"

Wu Yue glanced at Xia Xiaomu with a squinted look and said, "What are you doing with someone? Isn't it just to anger the old man? I broke the engagement with Miss Xie a while ago, and it made the old man sick. After all, it was the child raised by the old man. It's a chilling thing."

Lu Jingyi laughed and walked to the front: "You have to be self-righteous. You have lived for almost half a lifetime, but you are not very careful, which makes people laugh."

Wu Yue: "You, what are you talking about? The older you grow, the less rules you get."

"Rules? I don't know who is not the rules and I don't understand anything. I'm just talking nonsense. Brother Xiao Mu, my grandfather called me personally and asked him to gossip in front of the guests. Don't my aunt feel rude as an elder? If you tell me, I will make people laugh at our Lu family's hospitality method."

"Jing Yi."

Lu Jinghan stopped her and turned around and chuckled to Xia Xiaomu: "Xiaomu, don't care, some people in my family are not very sensible, which makes you laugh."

Wu Yue was so angry that he wanted to curse people, pointing at Lu Jinghan and shouting: "Who do you think is ignorant? You won't be able to tell me about your two bad things. When the old man sees him, hehe, our Lu family can only make a joke if they let men come in and say it."

Lu Jinghan reminded her meaningfully: "Auntie, don't say that you are too dead, otherwise Brother Jingcheng will do what, what should I do in the future?"

The last sentence, a rhetorical question every word.

Let the people around him look at Wu Yue immediately.

"What's wrong with my Jingcheng?" Wu Yue looked at the people around him and explained: "What's this kid talking nonsense?"

However, the conversation between the two also brought together the topics of the people present. After Lu Jinghan passed by, he whispered: "No, what's the relationship between the two? Do you know?"

"I heard that the painting is good, and it is called Xia Xiaomu. I was liked by the old man."

"I haven't heard of this name? What is the origin?"

"It's just the same origin. Some time ago, there was a lot of news. Do you still remember it? Master Zhou Tingsheng held a work called Xia Qianbai and acted as his own. After being discovered, Xia Qianbai became famous in one fell swoop. Now he is called a hermit artist. A painting sold for five million, as if it was Xia Xiaomu's father."

"It is said that the person who exposed Zhou Tingsheng was Xie Wen. Does such a powerful person have anything to do with Xia Qianbo?"

"Let's not talk about them for now. Seeing Jing Han bringing people over and being fearless, he should be ready to make it public, and the old man might agree. But this child is pretty good."

The aunt couldn't hold her face: "No matter what, she is a man, they are really ready to be together. Our Lu family is like a big family, so if you tell this, you won't be afraid of people laughing at me."

"Sister-in-law, you can't say that. Nowadays, men are more and more with men. In the face of gender, love is equal."

"It's not your child, you're talking so cool. I don't believe it. The old man will agree to them."

In the lively bustle, Mr. Lu entered the venue with a smile. After looking around, he shouted: "Xiao Mu, come and sit here."

The people at the family banquet immediately looked at the two of them, and everyone's eyes widened. Someone was drinking water and sprayed out "puffed" and coughed constantly.

It turned out that Lu Jinghan was holding Xia Xiaomu's hand, and the two walked towards Old Master Lu, one left and one right. Xia Xiaomu was embarrassed to make a struggle, but she didn't break away. Lu Jinghan not only held it tighter, but also turned his head and smiled at him.

There is tenderness in the eyes.

Everyone present had their eyes wide open: Jing Han is too blatant.

The old man's face turned bad indeed. When the two of them came over, they slapped Lu Jinghan on the arm: "You are worthy too!"

He shouted happily again: "Come here, don't be with that stinky brat."
