Chapter 18 Family feast
For the family feast, I searched the information of Jacky’s parents and became to realize that the otherday the woman who robbed my child was called Xiang Feng, who was Jacky's mother. And Jacky'sfather was a well-known figure, who was the vice chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Industryin Hai City, the chairman of the board of the Hua Group, and the top ten economic figures of Hai Cityfor several consecutive years, and his name was Yaohui Hua.
Xiang Feng showed obvious anger when Jacky took me in.
“Have I not told you not to come in?” she shouted.
I didn’t say anything, just looking at Jacky.
Jacky’s face turned colder, “ We didn’t want to come, but dad asked to. We are already here, and youdon’t allow us in. What do you want with us?”
“Haven’t I made it clear? You won’t come back if you are with this women.” Xiang Feng pointed to me.
I still said nothing. Although it was magnificent here like a palace, I didn't want to come actually. I didn'tcare whether the old woman let me in or not.
“I am coming in to emphasize something and then I leave. First, I get married with Kiki Yao. From nowon, she is my legal wife, and respecting her is respecting me, while hurting her is bullying me.”novelbin
And then, this is my child, not a commodity, even not private property of the Hua’s. No one owns theright to take him. Third, I was really not willing to come back. I've finished my talking, let’s go”
Jacky took me away and I followed him.
“Stop.” in the mean time, an elder came out of the next door, that was Yaohui Hua. I met him at thewedding. “Jacky, you should not be so rude to your mother.” Yaohui Hua said in a deep voice.
Although talked to Jacky, he stared at Lucas.
"When came to the door, she didn’t let us in. We have to leave.” Jacky said.
Yaohui Hua came over and was getting closer to Lucas, “What’s your name?” said he tenderly
Lucas looked at me and I nodded slightly, then he responded, “I’m Lucas.”
His tone was more conciliatory, “Have you eaten?”
Child would not lie and realized that Yaohui Hua was kind to him. So he became active and said nowith his childish tone.
Yaohui Hua laughed, “ Such a good boy, then have dinner before you leave.”
A bigwig is always a bigwig. Compared with the unruliness of that old lady, he was moremagnanimous.He also despised me, but he would not be so rude like Xiang Feng.
“No, we have to go.” Jacky said.
There was a little chill on Jacky’s face.
“Then go after dinner.” I said on my own.
Jacky glanced at me in surprise.
He must think that I was eager to escape from here because the owner here didn’t like me and it onlywas embarrassing to stay here.
But I had my own thought, Yaohui Hua was the owner of this family and it was a good thing that helikes Lucas. I didn’t care whether he likes me or not. But I didn’t want to damage our relationship. Since
I had married with Jacky, I would not be able to disassociate myself from this prominent familycompletely. No matter what happens, we have to meet in the feature.
Although there is something which cannot be avoided, it’s better to face them. If I can get the support ofYaohui Hua, I don’t have to worry about the threat of Xiang Feng. So I need to act properly to prove tohim that I am not a puppet.
Yaohui Hua gave me a meaningful look with kind of praise in his eyes. Obviously, my choice to stayhere surprised him and satisfied him, because I eased the contradiction.
Jacky put Lucas down and also gave me a meaningful look. Unexpectedly, I also saw somethingapproval in his eyes.
The dinning hall was even larger than normal parlor. The milky white marble dining table wassurrounded by a circle of gold edges, which was noble and elegant. Jacky and I sat in a row, oppositeYaohui Hua and the sullen Xiang Feng.
Lucas was being taken care of by someone on the next small table. It was the rule of a big family thatkids cannot stay with adults at the same table.
“Marriage is an important matter, anyway, you should let us know that whom you get married to.”Yaohui Hua said softly with dignity and a little reproach.
“Kiki also didn’t want to marry me. So I stole her household registration book to apply for a marriagecertificate.” Jacky said.
My heart was burst with gratitude. His words made me feel at ease. In the eyes of his parents, I wasnaturally greedy for vanity and wanted to marry someone. That's why Xiang Feng despised me. ButJacky's words were powerful refutation to those defamatory words that had not come from theirmouths.
I looked at him with gratitude, but he still with the same cold composure.
“That’s true? You must be set up by a trick.” Xiang Feng said enigmatically.
“It’s me who set me up. I like her and I will make her and our child happy. I hope to receive yourblessing, but I will still do that without your blessing.”
I was about burst out into tears. I never thought that he should support me.
Xiang Feng still wanted to say something, but was stopped by Yaohui Hua with an eye contact, “ Let’seat.”
And then we got back to eat, Yaohui Hua talked something about the business with Jacky without beinginterrupted by others.
We sat in silence for a few minutes after dinner, then rose to leave.
Lucas fell asleep in the car. Jacky picked him up to his room when we arrived Maple Villa.
After putting the child to bed, I said to Jacky gently in the aisle, “ Thanks for what you said tonight.”
He looked at me and kept quiet for a few seconds, “I just said to them, so you don’t have to take themseriously.”
My heart sank again and nodded, “ Well, I know, I won’t”
He passed by me wordlessly and walked to the third floor, then took out the key to open the iron doorwhich always be locked.
The servant said that Jacky never allow anyone go there, even the cleaning lady. It was always lockedand only he had the key, only he could get in.
No one knew what was up there on the mysterious third floor.
