Chapter 870: Chapter 863: On Forms of Address

The atmosphere in the living room of Leng Mansion was a bit strange. Especially Leng Liewei, his expression could be described as awkward to the extreme.

Luna was his wife, and logically, all the people present were Luna’s family, so as the son-in-law, Leng Liewei should show his respect properly.

But seeing his mother-in-law, who’s only a few years older than him, and Luna’s sister and brother-in-law, who are even younger than him, Leng Liewei simply couldn’t bring himself to act respectfully.

Back when Luna married Leng Liewei, the Lu Family opposed it, but Luna insisted, and later secretly got married to Leng Liewei abroad. The Lu Family couldn’t control her and just left her be since this young daughter had been raised freely since childhood. Fortunately, Leng Liewei was wealthy and powerful, so they went along with it.

However, they didn’t see much of Leng Liewei as a son-in-law. Apart from meeting him once right after he and Luna got married, today marked their second meeting.

Everyone had peculiar expressions on their faces. Lu Qian and her husband looked awkwardly at Leng Liewei, who was older than them, feeling uneasy. In contrast, Old Mrs. Lu appeared somewhat more normal, maintaining a dignified demeanor as a mother-in-law when speaking to Leng Liewei with a senior’s attitude.

"Cold Son-in-law!" Old Mrs. Lu slowly began to speak.

Upon hearing this, Luna looked at her mother with displeasure, "Mom, do you think you’re in a Korean drama? Cold Son-in-law? Why don’t I see you calling my brother-in-law Qiu Son-in-law?"

"Nonsense!" Old Mrs. Lu shouted, "With your husband’s age, do you think calling him Little Leng is appropriate?"

After these words, Leng Liewei had a helpless look on his face, but he couldn’t argue since his mother-in-law had a point.

Luna was the youngest in the family, with a considerable age difference between her and Lu Qian. Old Mrs. Lu had married young, while Leng Liewei married late. These coincidences led to the current situation.

In terms of Old Mrs. Lu’s age, it would be more appropriate for Leng Liewei to call her "big sister" since they were only about ten years apart, but now they ended up being mother-in-law and son-in-law.

Hearing what Old Mrs. Lu said, Luna’s face wasn’t too happy either, but she had always been afraid of her mother. As long as Old Mrs. Lu spoke a bit louder, Luna wouldn’t dare to talk back.

Old Mrs. Lu glanced at Luna and continued, "Cold Son-in-law, what’s going on with your health now?"

Old Mrs. Lu was referring to Leng Liewei being in a wheelchair, thinking he had some serious illness like paralysis.

"Mom, that—"

"Shut up!" As Luna was about to speak, Old Mrs. Lu scolded her back, "I’m talking to Cold Son-in-law now."

Leng Liewei didn’t mind and calmly said, "I recently had heart surgery, and the doctor advised me to avoid exercise. I’m in the recovery period now, but I’ll be fine in some time."

"Oh." Old Mrs. Lu nodded, relieved that it wasn’t paralysis. Otherwise, her Luna would have to take care of him, and no amount of money would be worth it!

Lu Zitong sat beside Old Mrs. Lu, looking around Leng Mansion with shining eyes. This place was like her dream home, noble and luxurious, exuding elegance and refinement at every corner. The more Lu Zitong looked, the more she liked it, feeling that it matched her innate qualities perfectly.

Thinking of that brat Qiu Zi living here for a while, Lu Zitong felt displeased.

She wanted to live here too!
