BXBX NOVEL Chapter 431 - 431 Want To Live In Luo Mansion.
Luo Lixi puffed her cheeks and sat on her father\'s lap with a cute frown. Madam Tang wanted to take her yet the expression on Luo Baiyun\'s face was very bad. So she didn\'t go ahead despite wanting to.
Suddenly, the old lady\'s face became serious as soon as the other people left the area. She turned to her son and uttered with a pained tone, "Child, it\'s one thing that you refused to come here for so many years but how could you hide the news of the birth of my granddaughter?! Do you have any idea how shocked I was?!"
\'Ah, she didn\'t know about me?! How can father do that?!\' Luo Lixi thought in disbelief as she turned to peek at her father. The latter directly ignored her and continued to stare ahead.
"I remember that father said he would never accept Sun Xumei\'s child. So, I guess it\'s not very important to tell you about \'our\' daughter." The man talked sarcastically. In his life, he never let any matter slip away easily even if the opposition was his family.
Hearing him using such a tone to talk, the old woman became unhappy and felt hard to speak. She sighed as she turned to look at Sun Xumei and murmured.
"You can\'t take words seriously when they are said in anger. If Housekeeper Wu didn\'t discover my granddaughter accidentally, I would have never known about her. How could you do that?!"
Luo Baiyun was relaxed as he glanced at his mother and shrugged, "I just did. Now you know so it\'s fine, I guess."
"You… how can you behave so insensitively?!" Madam Tang criticised him with a furious voice.
Her eyes fell on Luo Lixi who was busy staring at her grandmother, busy gulping down all the information they were letting out with profound eyes.
When the two people\'s eyes met, Luo Lixi saw unconcealed pain and longing. Her heart moved and her face broke into a huge smile as she spread her arms wide, "Grandma~ Hug~"
The intense face of the old lady softened into a sincere smile. Without caring for her son, she stood up and snatched away the little girl. Luo Baiyun grimaced as he spoke out hurriedly, "Be careful! She\'s injured!"
"Humph! I know!" Madam Tang snorted and then, she looked down on little Luo Lixi. Both of them smiled at each other. Sun Xumei rubbed her eyes when she saw that warm scene and thought deeply, \'Their smiles look so similar…\'
"I have talked with your father and he has agreed to… include your wife in the family tree. So don\'t stay angry and talk things through with him tonight."
Madam Tang explained to Luo Baiyun and then turned to Luo Lixi. The latter knew clearly how to melt an elder\'s heart and what people like about the little children.
With a cute smile, little Luo Lixi went ahead and kissed Madam Tang\'s two cheeks, "Smooch~ Smooch~"
"..." Luo Baiyun. \'Is this really my child?!\'
"..." Sun Xumei. \'She never gave me such kisses!\'
After watching this and thinking for a while, the man finally gave in and the indifference in his heart finally wilted a little.
He glanced at the little one who was rubbing her little face all over his mother\'s face and chuckled, "Thanks, mother! I will talk with my father about Sun Xumei then."
After all, even though he was mad, it was a sensitive matter that no relatives knew about his daughter\'s birth. Also, if Luo Qintian really disagreed to add Luo Lixi in the family tree, his little girl would suffer a lot which he didn\'t want to see.
Listening to him, both Madam Tang and Sun Xumei smiled. Sun Xumei glanced at Luo Lixi and thought happily, \'Xixi, finally, you\'ll get your rightful position in this family.\'
Madam Tang played with Luo Lixi\'s two small arms and spoke out while looking down on the little head, "Don\'t go back to that Villa. You should start living here from now on. I already have someone to clean your room..."
"No, I won\'t." Luo Baiyun shook his head with a solemn expression.
"Why?! I have already talked with your father. He agreed…" Madam Tang frowned. Luo Lixi sulked as she thought with eagerness, \'I want to live here… with my grandparents…\'
"But, I don\'t agree. It\'s better if they live in my Villa. If you want to see Xixi, you can just send the housekeeper and bring her here sometimes." Luo Baiyun said as he glanced at Sun Xumei.
After the matter which happened earlier, he felt insecure to leave his wife in the mansion. Not to say she was pregnant and couldn\'t be left behind when dangerous people were present.
The old woman realised that her son was still stubborn. She was unwilling to see her grandchild leaving and pursed her lips in dismay.
Luo Lixi saw her face deeming. She peeked at her father and then turned to Madam Tang. Then, she recalled that Housekeeper Wu had said her grandmother wasn\'t in good health.
\'As far as I know, in my last life, grandma died early. I never remembered when I had seen her or… if I had ever met her…\' As Luo Lixi thought this, she couldn\'t stay quiet.
She wanted to remember the moments spent with her grandma and if possible, saving her from her possible death. The moment this thought came into Luo Lixi\'s mind, a thing sneakily materialised around Luo Lixi\'s neck yet all people including her were unaware.
Luo Lixi stood on the old lady\'s lap and then glared at her father as she shouted, "Baba, you go back with Ma! I… I will stay with grandma~"
"..." Sun Xumei was surprised when she heard her. She panicked while thinking, \'No way I am leaving you here! What if you forget me?! A child has a brain like a bird. I will die if you refuse to come back later!\'
"..." Luo Baiyun eyed his daughter with a smirk. He couldn\'t help but ponder with amusement, \'How did my mother already buy this little thing?!\'
"Good girl~" Madam Tang was delighted when she heard Luo Lixi. She kissed Luo Lixi\'s cheeks and murmured with narrowed eyes, "As long as you stay, your mother will have to stay. Then, your father… I have such a good granddaughter~"
\'Grandma, I can hear everything. Kindly murmure in your mind~\' Luo Lixi thought as her lips twisted. Nonetheless, she went ahead and wrapped her arms around her grandma\'s neck and became a certified sloth in the blink of an eye.
Sun Xumei\'s heart twisted when she saw this scene. An unknown crisis came into her head and she felt restless, \'Doesn\'t she hate close contact with unfamiliar people?! Why then…\'
In the end, Luo Baiyun had to leave for the Luo Corporation. After all, he couldn\'t ignore the official matters for so long and became the subject of criticism of his father again.
Before leaving, he sent Housekeeper Wu back in the hall room and gave strict orders to take care of his wife and child in his absence.
…
After Luo Baiyun left, Madam Tang turned to Sun Xumei and smiled, which looked too fake in Luo Lixi\'s eyes.
"For how many months have you been pregnant?" Madam Tang asked while rubbing Luo Lixi\'s back who had turned into a koala and laid on the old woman\'s bosom.
"Nearly seven months." Sun Xumei replied politely. She couldn\'t stop fiddling her fingers since Luo Baiyun had left and couldn\'t find anything to do either.
After all, it was her first time coming to the Luo Mansion and the place was still unfamiliar to her.
"Good. Take good care of yourself as well. Also, if Luo Baiyun insists on leaving, try to pacify him to live here from now on." Madam Tang\'s smile turned sharp as she stared at her daughter in law. Sun Xumei smiled back awkwardly as she nodded.
When Housekeeper Wu came, Madam Tang stood up and turned around to leave. Sun Xumei hurriedly stood up and called out urgently, "Ah, Madam, Xixi must be sleepy. Give her to me."
The old lady stopped in her place and then spoke while looking sideways, "No need. I can handle a little child. Also, now that we have decided to add you in the family, call me mother from now on."
Then she turned to Housekeeper Wu and gave instructions while her legs moved to go upstairs, "Send her to Baiyun\'s room and take care of her every need. Also, be careful. She\'s pregnant with my grandchild."
"Yes, madam." The housekeeper bowed as he saw the old lady walking towards the second floor. Sun Xumei clenched her palms when she saw them leaving. She wanted to follow them but Housekeeper Wu blocked her path.
"Miss Sun, please follow me." The housekeeper wore a polite smile as he started to walk towards the stairs as well.
Sun Xumei\'s eyes followed the way Madam Tang left and hurriedly spoke out, "Uncle, if my child starts to cry, please send her to me."
"Sure." The man nodded and then showed Sun Xumei the path as they walked up the stairs. The maid of Sun Xumei also came at some point and hurriedly followed her closely.
