Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

Chapter 599: Could Not Help But Feel A Little Jealous

She felt warm and satisfied.

There was a saying that daughters were like warm and comforting cotton jackets; Ling Lihua strongly agreed.

She tucked Lu Liangwei in before blowing out the lights and going to sleep.

The next day.

Lu Liangwei and Ling Lihua were just done with breakfast when Lu Tingchen arrived.

He could not help but feel a little jealous when he saw his mother and sister together, looking like they were inseparable.

“Father woke up,” he said shortly, his tone sounding stiff.

Lu Liangwei looked delighted. “Is that true?”

“Yes,” Lu Tingchen answered with indifference.

Lu Liangwei turned to Ling Lihua to say, “Mother, I’d like to see Father. Do you want to come with me?”

Ling Lihua shook her head. “It’s fine. You should go on your own.”

Lu Liangwei knew that her mother was still not willing to face her father, so she did not force it. However, when she recalled the assassin that appeared out of the blue to kill Madam Zheng, she said, “Mother, please be careful.”

Ling Lihua understood her worry and rubbed her head. “Don’t worry, I still have your Uncle Wu here.”

Lu Liangwei was less worried when she heard this. “Alright, but still, Mother, do be extra careful.”

“I know. You should hurry along. Once you’re done visiting your father, return to the Palace quickly. Otherwise, my Emperor son-in-law might come and take down the medicinal shop.” Ling Lihua could not help teasing her.

Lu Liangwei was a little embarrassed. “Alright, I’ll try to return to the Palace as soon as I can.”

Lu Tingchen was a little puzzled at their conversation. “Did something happen yesterday?”

Lu Liangwei replied, “I’ve written a letter to Grandmother yesterday. Didn’t she tell you about it?”

Lu Tingchen shook his head. “No, she didn’t. I’ve been staying by Father’s side all this while he was unconscious. Grandmother didn’t say anything to me.”

Lu Liangwei nodded. No wonder her brother had no idea about what happened.

“Let’s go. I’ll tell you about it along the way.”

Lu Tingchen said to Ling Lihua, “Mother, I’ll head home first. I’ll come to visit you at a later time.”

“Alright.” Ling Lihua nodded with a smile. Much of the coldness in her eyes had disappeared.

On the way back to the Grand Duke Mansion, Lu Liangwei gave Lu Tingchen all the details of what had happened yesterday.

He was quite shocked to find out that Madam Zheng was killed by an assassin out of the blue.

“Madam Zheng died just like that?”

“Yes.” Lu Liangwei nodded. She had not been prepared for Madam Zheng’s death as well.

Even though she did not sympathize with Madam Zheng, there were many secrets buried along with Madam Zheng’s death.

It would be more difficult to resolve the situation between her parents now.

At the thought of this, she suddenly felt some hatred toward the assassin who had appeared out of nowhere.

Lu Tingchen frowned. Just like Lu Liangwei, Madam Zheng’s death did not bother him much, but…

With an assassin surfacing so mysteriously, could his mother be in danger?

“This won’t do. I need to go back and protect Mother.”

Lu Liangwei consoled him. “Don’t worry. There’s Uncle Wu and Senior there. Moreover, Mother’s martial arts skills are pretty good. Any assassin would need to think twice before trying to take her out.”

Lu Tingchen could not stop worrying, but he knew that his sister was right, so he forced himself to suppress the thought.

“The most important thing right now is to resolve the hatred in Mother’s heart. I don’t want Father to do anything stupid again,” Lu Liangwei said with a frown.

Lu Tingchen turned silent.

His mother hated his father immensely. How could she forgive him so easily?

However, Lu Liangwei’s concerns were not unfounded. Their father was clearly seeking death right now.

As their children, how could they stand by and watch their parents fight without lifting a finger?

He sighed. “Do you have any plans about that?”

Lu Liangwei shook her head and replied with some regret, “Madam Zheng was supposed to provide a way out of this, but I never thought an assassin would suddenly pop up to kill her the moment I brought her back.”
