Applaud for Happiness

nd elegant woman who was Lu Zhuo and Lu Jun’s mother, but there was just no father for the two children.

It was weird, no matter how he looked at it.

In the outline, it was said that Bai Yueguang had approached Lu Zhuo for revenge.
Shen Qi imagined various types of story lines.
The most melodramatic plot twist is that Anze is really the half-brother of Lu Zhuo, with the same father and a different mother.
The reason for his revenge is perhaps the unfair treatment he received after Lu Zhihong abandoned his mother. 

Ahem, of course, this is only Shen Qi’s imagination.
If it was really like this, the plot would also be too exaggerated.

Anyway, in view of the care Shen had received from Master Lu and Lu Zhuo, especially Master Lu, who almost treated him as half a grandson.
Even though he couldn’t get close to his real grandson, he still kept his kindness in his heart.

Therefore, he wants to do his best to ease the relationship between Master Lu and Lu Zhuo.
He will leave in another two months.
Then Lu Jun would go out often, and Master Lu would be alone to guard the Lu residence.
That would be too pitiful.

Of course, he did not dare to be arrogant, thinking that he would be able to fix everything before he left.
However, as long as he can do something small, then his plan is considered successful.

Eating hot pot is the first step in his plan.
This was something he thought of for a long time.

After two months of observation, Lu Zhuo and Lu Jun are only at home in the morning and evening.
Not to mention, when they are not at home, and even when they are, they will have already eaten dinner before returning.
Since Master Lu is old and sleeps early and gets up early, he eats breakfast before Lu Zhuo and Lu Jun wake up. It can be said that, except for the weekend, they almost never eat at a table together.
Even on weekends, Lu Zhuo stays in his room and asks his maid to send the food to his room.

So Shen Qi proposed eating hot pot.
This way, even if they wanted to be alone, it would be awkward.
Since Lu Zhuo loves spicy food, he would not refuse this dinner.
There is no situation that a hot pot can not solve.
If not, they could eat two hot pots.

So at noon, Shen Qi was very busy preparing a steaming hot pot and taking care of Master Lu.
He specifically divided the Mandarin duck pot 3, as well as preparing all of the ingredients that the Lu family enjoys eating.
Just the smell makes everyone’s mouth water.

“It smells delicious!” Lu Jun followed him to help, “I want to eat it.”

Shen Qi proudly said, “That’s for sure, this is my father’s secret recipe!”

Lu Jun, who loves spicy food as much as Lu Zhuo, looked at the red spicy pot and was craving it: “I’ll go persuade big brother again and tell him to come back soon!”

Lu Zhuo did not come home the previous night, but Lu Jun called him to come back for lunch, and he did not refuse.

He brought the hot pot to the table and plugged it in.
A plate of dishes was also brought.
Just when Shen Qi was ready to pull away, Elder Lu 4 called him: “Ah Qi! You can sit.
Let’s eat together.
” And he turned his head to Uncle Shen and said, “You can also sit.
We don’t always have to be formal.
“

Shen Qi is a bit at a loss.
This was the first time he was called to the family table.
He subconsciously looked at Uncle Shen.

Elder Lu saw his expression and said: “What? No one listens to me anymore? Or do you all dislike eating in the same pot as this old man? “

Uncle Shen hurriedly said: “Of course not.
What are these words? I have to be ashamed of myself, I just did not expect, I, I, I ……” obviously very touched, moved to the point of being unable to speak.

Lu Jun personally pulled out the stool for Uncle Shen, smiled, and said: “Uncle, quickly sit.
You have been in the family for so many years, taking care of my big brother and me.
You are no different from being our real uncle.
“

Uncle Shen’s eyes turned red.
He looked at Elder Lu and then at Lu Jun, and then said yes.

Shen Qi watched, heartbroken and relieved.
Uncle Shen is good to him, so he naturally looks forward to everything going well for Uncle Shen as well.
He already sees Uncle Shen as his own grandfather, and has long vowed to look after him.
Since he cannot give Uncle Shen a stable life, if the Lu family can be good to him, of course, he is happy.

“You can also sit down.” Lu Jun patted Shen Qi’s shoulder and teased him, “Or do you want me to hand you a stool too?”

“No, no.” Shen Qi hurriedly sat down on his butt.

The group of people were now waiting for Lu Zhuo.
Lu Zhuo called and said he only needed ten minutes to get home, but after half an hour, there was still no one.

Lu Jun became anxious and sent messages to rush the other person.

Master Lu’s expression sank and he picked up his chopsticks: “Let’s start eating!”

Lu Jun helped explain: “Big brother was stuck in traffic, and will return soon.”

Master Lu snorted coldly, obviously not convinced: “All right, let’s eat our food.
He can do whatever he wants.”

Lu Jun had no choice, so she put down her phone.

Shen Qi frowned.
It seems that his efforts were going to be wasted.
His heart could not help but sigh.
Forget it; there will be more opportunities in the future.

The atmosphere was a little stiff at first.
But after eating and drinking a few cups of alcohol, everyone started to become lively and forgot all about the “no talking while eating” rule.
Shen Qi picked some childhood embarrassment to amuse everyone with.
Uncle Shen would also add some details from time to time.
Lu Jun also talked about some of the recent events, like where she went and what she saw.
Elder Lu had a lot of rich experience, so he talked a lot as well.

The atmosphere was getting more and more lively.
Lu Jun turned on the TV to watch the drama that she didn’t have time to catch up on last night.
The melodrama made everyone happy while eating, and the laughter could be heard in the garden.

The assistant pushed Lu Zhuo into the room.
From far away, he could see the four people in the dining room.
The grandfather, who always had a serious face, was now grinning from ear to ear.
Not knowing what Shen Qi said, his grandfather burst out laughing.
Uncle Shen was laughing, and Lu Jun was laughing.
Shen Qi foolishly flattened his mouth, and then helplessly laughed.

He unconsciously stopped his wheelchair, a strange feeling festering in his heart.

Shen Qi suddenly turned his head, stared blankly at him for a moment, and then changed his face into a bright smile, extending his hand: “Brother Lu! Come quickly! We’re just waiting on you! “

Lu Zhuo shook his head.
