Lu Sangning poured a small glass of red wine, handed it to Lu Chi, and poured one for herself as well.

He said to Lu Chi, "Brother Lu Chi, come, let's have a drink together, forget all the unpleasant things, help each other, and make our Lu family great!"

Lu Sangning's beautiful face was radiant at this moment, her heart and eyes were filled with Lu Chi.

“Little brother Lu Chi, you are the hope of our Lu family and the support of your sisters! I made mistakes in the past, but I know I was wrong and I hope you can forgive me!”

Lu Chi: [I really didn't expect that the cold and aloof CEO would actually apologize to me!]

Guagua: [Host, your eldest sister is truly repentant. After the kidnapping incident, you went through thick and thin together, and your eldest sister is very grateful to you.]

I feel very guilty about misunderstanding you before. I secretly vowed to protect you, her only younger brother, from now on.

Lu Chi: [Good, good, that's the right thing for a smart older sister to do.]

Lu Chi raised his glass in return to Lu Sangning: "Come on, big sister, cheers!"

The family listened to Lu Chi and Guagua's heartfelt words.

Lu Yuanqing and Pan Feng felt sorry for Lu Chi. He had suffered so many injustices outside, and now he had to endure the disdain of his sisters when he came home.

He needs to properly educate his daughters and teach them to treat their younger brother well.

Their younger brother will be their future family, their world and their support.

Lu Sangning was very happy that Lu Chi could forgive her and accept her. It was wonderful!

The third sister, Lu Yanxin, the fourth sister, Lu Xiaoyue, and the fifth sister, Lu Yunke, ate pastries and drank juice without saying a word.

Lu Chi has been back for so long and has been through so much.

Everyone saw through Lu Jiyang and knew that he was insidious and ruthless.

Lu Chi is the one who protects the Lu family.

Everyone was grateful, but not to the point of making a big fuss about asking for forgiveness like Lu Sangning did.

Lu Qingru blushed and it took her a long time to say:

"I know I was wrong, but I grew up with Ji Yang and I don't know Lu Chi at all. Ji Yang said Lu Chi isn't a good person, how could I not believe him? If it were you, wouldn't you be the same!"

Everyone felt guilty.

Lu Chi picked up the red wine in his hand and drank it in one gulp.

Looking at Lu Qingru, he said coldly, "That's why I say you're stupid! You don't believe your own blood-related younger brother, but a fake one tries to sow discord between you all day long, and he succeeds."

Lu Qingru retorted, "Lu Chi, I'm your second sister. How dare you talk to me like that? Don't you know how to respect me?"

Lu Chi snorted coldly and said, "Now you know you're my second sister, so when others are saying all sorts of bad things about me, why don't you say you're my second sister and defend me?"

Lu Qingru: "Can you...can you please stop harping on this?"

Seeing that the siblings were about to start arguing, Lu Yuanqing slammed his hand on the table and yelled at Lu Qingru:

"Lu Qingru! Can you shut up? What did I tell you in private? As the older sister, you should take good care of your younger brother, and you're still arguing with me here? You idiot!"

Lu Qingru was scolded and started to cry in grievance.

"Dad, why are you yelling at me and scolding me! I apologized to him, saying that I misunderstood him before because I didn't know the truth, but he still won't forgive me. What can I do?"

Pan Feng also roared, "Lu Qingru, shut up! Look at yourself! Is that how you apologize? You have no sincerity at all! It's your own fault that Chi'er doesn't forgive you!"

Lu Yuanqing knew that Lu Chi had been wronged and was still unable to resolve his inner conflict.

She didn't force him to forgive Lu Qingru, but simply said, "It's too late today, everyone should go wash up and rest early."

Lu Chi returned to his room.

After washing up, I lay down on my large, comfortable bed.

I started chatting with Guagua in a casual, half-hearted way.

Lu Chi: "Lu Qingru wants me to forgive her? Absolutely not!"

Guagua: [Yes, host is right! I won't forgive you! But, I could make a trip to Laos.]

Lu Chi: [Hey, whose system are you anyway, the Lu family's or mine? Why are you always helping them? Trying to trick me into rescuing Lu Qingru? No way!]

Guagua: [Host, but according to the plot, if we don't rescue Lu Qingru, the Lu family will send huge sums of money to northern Myanmar to try and save her.]

In the end, they still won't release him. Your parents will worry themselves sick and die tragically. Without the Lu family's support, your status as the young master of the Lu family won't be secure!

Lu Chi: [...]

My parents are so good, I don't want them to die!

The young master's life is so comfortable, I don't want to lose him!

After a long while...

Just when the system Guagua thought Lu Chi had figured things out...

Lu Chi: [No, going there is too dangerous. I'd rather not be the young master of the Lu family. Don't try to morally blackmail me.]

Guagua: [Host, don't worry, you can go ahead and do it without any worries. Don't you have the 2 billion your dad gave you? You can use it to buy intermediate-level combat power...]

Lu Chi's eyes lit up: [Intermediate combat strength, how many people can one person fight against?]

Guagua: [If the opponent doesn't use weapons, you can easily take on 100 well-trained soldiers by yourself. You can also take on more than 50 bodyguards with strong combat skills.]

Lu Chi: [Holy crap! That's strong! If that's god-level combat power, wouldn't one person be able to sweep away an entire army?]

Guagua: [No, host, with boss-level combat power, you can sweep away thousands of troops. God-level combat power has reached the level of superpowers, capable of slaying all kinds of ferocious beasts.]
