Chapter 724: Chapter 724 Must have been so scary

Chapter 724 Must have been so scary

Standing in front of the door to the conference room was a middle-aged woman. She wore a green cheongsam coat with a pleated white skirt peeking from below. Her hair was put in a low bun, and she held her handbag at her side.

The moment she entered the room, she did not check to see who was inside as her eyes were already glued to the figure belonging to the aloof man.

"You."

Her eyes dimmed dangerously and without any care in the world, she strides towards him.

"You unfilial child!"

Lu Tian glance at the woman storming towards him and he sighs aloud. Raising one hand, he pinches the space between his brows and leans back on the chair.

"Mother, why are you here?"

Madam Lu stops in front of her oldest son and her nostrils flare with steam blowing out. She slams her bag down on the table and glares at Lu Tian.

"Did I not give birth to you? How dare you do this to me?!"

Her words fell in questions despite her fit of rage. She looks at Lu Tian and waits for him to answer, but the second she saw him part his lip to speak, she stuck out her palm and stops him.

Not giving him the chance to answer, she massage her forehead and tries to calm herself. However, instead of calming down, her anger intensifies, and she goes into another rampage.

This time, both her arms wave in every direction.

"I don't want to hear your explanation. I can't believe this at all. I am your mother and yet, you dare to keep such important news away from me. If I had not stopped by the company, I would have never found out. Were you planning to keep this from me forever? Hm?"

She looks back at Lu Tian and her expression was as if asking, 'care to explain?'

However, in the next second, she flung her head away from him.

"No, don't answer. Whatever excuse you have to say, I will not listen. You already lied to me the first time, you might lie again the second time."

As Madam Lu continues her rampage, she spoke incoherent words, and sometimes, she would throw in a few foreign words.

Lu Tian sat unmoving in his seat. Watching and listening to his mother's outburst, he sighs inside. He raises his left hand and pinches the space between his eyebrows again.

This was one of the reasons why he had asked Manager He to keep this meeting a secret from his mother. He was planning to tell her after the meeting is done, but who would have known his mother would find out first.

Lowering his hand, he glances at Manager He. No words were spoken but the look on his face said it all.

'How did my mother find out?'

Manager He did not need to think twice. One glance was all it took for him to understand. He glances at Madam Lu pacing back and forth then looks back at Lu Tian. He shrugs his shoulders and answers.

'I don't know. I swear I haven't said a word. I even made sure all the employees kept quiet.'

The two men immerse in nonverbal communication with only their eyes. Lu Tian heaves another sigh and looks at his mother. He slowly closes his eyes and couldn't help but sigh again.

"Ma."

His deep voice sounds in a calm, yet indifferent tone. It abruptly halted Madam Lu as her raging and frantic voice hushed like a child making a ruckus in class.

She turns to look at her oldest son, but despite her quieting down, she did not forget to make sure he was well aware of her glaring eyes full of laser beam ready to shoot out.

However, seeing how calm and composed he is, she scoffs in utter disbelief.

"Hah. You dare keep this away from me and still know that I am your 'ma'? Hm?"

Lu Tian rolled his eyes with another sigh. He could not believe how childish his mother was being. His arms cross over his chest and he looks at her with a serious expression.

"Can you step out? I'm in the middle of an important meeting."

Madam Lu's nostrils flare with her eyes. As his mother, how dare he try to kick her out. The way he was treating her was as if they were strangers.

She inhales a deep breath that caused her body to slightly tremble.

"You are asking me to leave?"

Her eyes widen with each of her words. She takes a step towards him and sneers.

"Do you think I will leave just because you asked me to?"

She points to herself and chuckles sarcastically.

"I am the real owner of Cloth Co. I can do and go as I please."

Placing both her palms on her hips, she stuck out her chest.

"Just because my company is under Lu Corps, doesn't mean you can walk in here and act like you are the king of this place."

Remembering something he had said, she sounds an arrogant hmmf and turns to the people Lu Tian was supposedly in a meeting with.

"I don't care who you are meeting with. I am not leaving until I see my precious daughter-in-law. You have kept her hostage for far too long. Don't you know that I miss her more than I miss you? Hm?"

Her last words fell, and she finally takes a look at the other people in the room. Due to her anger, she did not get to take a good look. However, when her eyes landed on the familiar figure sitting calmly on the chair opposite her son, she gasps in horror.

"M-m-m-my…."

It was like the cold winter breeze had suddenly blown into the room and froze everything. Like an entire day had gone by before Madam Lu could find her voice again.

"My precious daughter-in-law…"

Her left-hand reaches out to Lu Tian and shakes his shoulder as she whispers to him.

"Why didn't you tell me that Ah Ling was already here?"

Lu Tian's eyelids turned heavy at her words. He doesn't say anything but sighs for who knows how many times and massage his forehead.

Maybe if his mother had not decided to barge into the room, she would have taken a good look and realized that his wife was already here.

On the opposite side of the room, Yue Ling sat in her seat with Liu Shan standing behind her. They were still going over the supply contract when Madam Lu stormed into the room and dumbfounded them.

Both boss and assistant stare speechlessly at the scene that unfolded in front of them. Neither could decide whether to laugh or cry.

Seeing Madam Lu's frozen state of mind, a soft smile curls on Yue Ling's lip. Despite witnessing the woman's raging side, she (Yue Ling) found Madam Lu to be a very warm person. It was a scene that made her miss her mother.

She brushes the sad feeling away and smiles a chuckle.

"It's nice to see you again, Madam Lu."

Her angelic voice enters Madam Lu's ears and made her cheeks blush red. Her (Madam Lu) covers her mouth with one hand as she playfully gestures a wave with her other hand.

"Goodness child, why are speaking so formally with me."

She quickly ignores her son and walks over to Yue Ling. Her entire being changed into a loving and caring mother as she takes a seat next to Yue Ling.

"If I had known you were coming here, I would have prepared a warm welcome for you."

She reaches over and takes hold of Yue Ling's hand, but the second she felt her daughter-in-law's hand, she gasps with a worried look.

"Aiya, your hands are freezing cold. What will we do if you catch a cold?"

Not giving Yue Ling a chance to respond, she flung her head to look at Lu Tian. Unlike the soft look she was showing Yue Ling, one can see the murderous intent in her glaring eyes at her son.

"Tian look at what you did. It's because of the cold air you carry that my Lu family's Ah Ling's hands are as cold as ice."

She looks back at Yue Ling and she sighs with sympathy and worried.

"Child, being in a meeting with my son must have been so scary. Don't worry, I am here now. He cannot scare you anymore."

Yue Ling: "…"

Lu Tian: "…"

Liu Shan: "…"

Manager He: 'May buddha be with us all.'
