Chapter 226: The wife vs The mom Part4
They both returned Su Lin\'s polite smile and satisfactorily nodded when Luther abruptly blurted out.
"Pffft. Ha Ha. Mom, Dad. Don\'t get fooled. She is a demoness, trying to act cute and lovable as a kitten."
F*ck. Su Lin stumbled and almost dropped the tray in her hands. This man!
Can you stop teasing me for once, you childish idiot??
She cursed in her heart and smiled awkwardly, unable to react as she pleased in front of the elders.
Otherwise, Luther would have received a few bite marks here and there on his body for this cardinal sin.
Su Lin was a firm believer in running a tight ship at home.
Now that the cat was out of the bag, she hesitantly looked at the elders and smiled weakly.
But contrary to her fears, Ella merely chuckled. She very much liked this fiery wife of his son!!
"Ha Ha. Of course. The woman of the house needs to be a demoness to keep you unruly men in check!" She sipped the tea and grinned teasingly.
Su Lin covered her mouth with the tea set tray and giggled.
She couldn\'t help but wonder if Luther\'s father, John Augustin was equally troublesome.
On the side, Luther faked a scaredy-cat expression and shivered. All women were scary!
Since it was still technically the middle of the night, Su Lin lovingly reminded the elders to have a rest in their house.
"Mr. And Mrs. Augustin, please rest tonight in our guest room."
"Ha Ha. Please call us mom and dad, dear. Yes, yes, of course. Thanks for hosting us."
Ella gracefully stood up from the couch and her beautiful figure hugged Su Lin.
Su Lin couldn\'t help but be amazed at how much the mother and son looked alike.
Both had divine features that were capable of entrancing and enslaving one\'s soul.
John as well placed his teacup down and stood up to pat Luther once more.
"You have got a good wife son." He praised Su Lin.
"Ha Ha. Thanks, dad." Luther grinned.
John smiled and added. "Any woman who knows her way around a good tea and a good meal is a rare treasure!"
Luther, this time, grinned awkwardly.
Good tea maybe… As far as a good meal is concerned… his wifey should never be allowed near a kitchen.
But he decided to not tease her anymore tonight and kept his thoughts to himself, grinning wildly.
He still couldn\'t believe that he just like that met with his long lost parents in the middle of an unassuming night, even without searching for them.
Su Lin went inside to arrange the room for the elders, while Luther helped the elders freshen up and change into comfortable clothes.
"I will help you get your luggage from the hotel tomorrow, dad." He excitedly exclaimed.
"Thanks, kiddo," John muttered.
Little white who was left alone in the garden, by now had wandered back into the house and brushed against Ella\'s legs.
Ella curiously peered at the little thing, with a mysterious gleam in her eyes.
Where could they have possibly gotten a spirit beast and how is it so obedient?
There were so many questions and concerns still swirling in her mind, but she decided to wait until tomorrow to talk about everything in elaborate details.
25 years ago… Someone had stolen her precious son from her house and right under her nose.
Ella had felt totally powerless and useless for losing something so innocent and vulnerable when she was the matriarch of a powerful organization.
What use was all her wealth, power, and superhuman strength when she couldn\'t even protect her own flesh and blood??
She had blamed herself for years and years, living in constant misery.
Tonight finally, she would be able to sleep in peace. Ella rubbed the cute tiger\'s head and walked over to the room her son and daughter-in-law were tidying up for her.
"Let me help you with this, child."
She grabbed the other end of the bedspread and helped Su Lin.
The happy family chatted for a few more minutes and then Su Lin and Luther returned back to their room upstairs.
Once they were in the privacy of their room, Su Lin immediately pinched her unruly thug.
"You have some nerve rascal." Su Lin angrily sulked.
Luther chuckled and brushed it off, leaping onto the bed without any care.
"By the way, I sensed some spiritual energy in mom and dad\'s body though they are both well below your foundation realm." He seriously mentioned.
Hmm… Su Lin curiously nodded.
Indeed, Luther\'s parents had triggered the array set up around the house. That itself implied that they were not ordinary civilians.
But wasn\'t it too much of a coincidence?
Luther, belonging to a cultivator clan before he was kidnapped, and how he happened to meet Su Lin, who was a rogue cultivator transmigrated from another world.
"Sometimes fate works in mysterious ways." Luther sighed.
Su Lin, however, shook her head negatively with a mysterious expression.
"Nothing is a coincidence, my dear. In all my years alive and breathing, I have often sensed profound karmic threads around living beings."
"Only kindness begets kindness."
"Your parents must be extremely kind and good-hearted people, having helped a lot of people." "Otherwise, how could we have met each other in the middle of a random mountain range?" Su Lin pondered out loud.
"Hai… Hai… My wifey is the wisest person." Luther chuckled and playfully planted a kiss on Su Lin\'s lips.
He then quickly went back to his cultivation mode.
They still had a couple of hours before sunrise and now that he had more people to protect, Luther was determined to work his hardest and improve his strength.
He closed his eyes and centered his mind, slipping into the familiar meditative state within seconds.
But suddenly…
Arghhhh!! A loud shriek echoed!
