Lucia, a billionaire heiress, transmigrates into a melodramatic, amoral, and universally adored female protagonist's年代文novel as a tragic cannon fodder.
The moment she opens her eyes...
Chapter 440: Chi Yu wants to give away the Lu family’s thousand-year accumulation. Lu Qihua is heartbroken by this wasteful behavior.
In addition, there are a lot of gold bars and various colorful cash in the safe, as well as several extremely exquisite jewelry boxes.
Lu Chiyu opened the jewelry box. She had seen many rare jewels, and the jewels inside were among the remaining ones.
She could guarantee with her toes that these things must have been left to Lu Qihua and the others by her scumbag grandfather Gao.
Resisting the urge to take everything away, Lu Chiyu finally took away only the identity jade pendant and the letters written by his grandfather Gao. He also took away some gold bars and a few pieces of the best quality jewelry and put the safe back to its original place.
Well, the password box is opened with a password, so you can’t figure out who stole it no matter how hard you try!
And they didn't take everything, which is more like the work of a thief.
…………
The next day.
The people from the embassy of Country B were indeed very efficient in sending Lu Qihua and his friends a list of the Lu family members who were still living in Jun City.
Seeing that there were only a list of more than ten households in their hands, Lu Qihua and the others looked a little silent.
"Are these the only members of the Lu family left?" Lu Qihua asked the visitor with some difficulty.
The person who came was Mr. Smith's secretary, a Chinese man in his thirties who spoke fluent Chinese: "Yes, our people have searched all the members of the Jun City Lu family within eighteen generations.
Eighteenth generation?!
So they really searched through eighteen generations of ancestors to find these few people?
The charming woman sneered at this and said, "Husband, this is normal. After all, the Lu family has a family rule that does not allow men to have three wives and four concubines, nor does it allow men to have extramarital affairs.
They don't even acknowledge your father, a male who can carry on the family line, so it's reasonable that his offspring dies out.
In my opinion, a man must marry more wives and concubines, which is the key to the prosperity of the family. The ancestors of the Lu family are really confused.
But this is a good thing for us. Aren’t we going to abolish the Lu family’s rule of not recognizing illegitimate children? We can use the reason of having an heir to convince those members of the Lu family.”
"Yeah." Lu Qihua didn't think that was the case. For the first time, he felt proud of being the descendant of an illegitimate child!
Next, Mr. Smith's secretary told Lu Qihua about the generous conditions that Country B offered to the Lu family to support Lu Qihua and his party.
The more Lu Qihua and others listened, the brighter their eyes became. With such conditions, they couldn't help but feel tempted.
What’s more, they are the peasants of the Lu family.
"Don't worry, Secretary Li. Go back and tell Mr. Smith that we will definitely complete the mission successfully this time."
Lu Qihua even patted his chest and assured the visitor that with the heavy losses in country B and the huge profits, he was very confident that he could convince these members of the Lu family to support them.
There is an old saying in the Red Country that goes, "Money makes the world go round," and what's more, all they want to bribe now are just living people!
"Well, then I'll go back and tell Mr. Smith to wait for your good news."
After they left, Lu Guangrong immediately said to Lu Qihua, "Dad, quickly take out the jade pendant and the will, and we'll go to the first Lu family member's house.
Feng'er came back today after going out to inquire about the news. That little bitch Lu Chiyu hasn't left Jun City yet. We have to hurry and get this done before that little bitch leaves Jun City.
Feng'er also heard that the little bitch Lu Chiyu was planning to donate a batch of medical books and notes from the Lu family's ancestors to the Red Country University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This was simply an act of squandering money to the extreme. She wanted to give away our Lu family's thousand-year accumulation.
These medical books and manuscripts should all belong to us. We must quickly organize our tribesmen to stop her wasteful behavior!"
Lu Guangrong looked heartbroken as he spoke, as if Lu Chiyu had really taken his things and given them away.
However, no one in their room felt that something was wrong, and they all expressed the same heartache and anger when they heard what was said.
Lu Qihua said angrily: "This damn girl, she has so many medical books and notes but she doesn't give them to me, her uncle, and instead gives them to outsiders.
It is truly unfortunate for our Lu family to have such an unfilial descendant. If our ancestors knew about her behavior, they would surely be so angry that even the coffin lid would not be able to hold it down."
Then he turned and walked towards the room, saying urgently, "Wait here, I'll go get the jade pendant and the will."
Seeing Lu Qihua go to get something, the rest of the people in the room were waiting excitedly. At this moment, they seemed to have seen their future wealth and status!
Unexpectedly, the joy lasted less than a minute before Lu Qihua screamed from his room: "Ah, where are my things?"
Lu Feng was the first to react and rushed into the room, and the people behind him hurried to catch up.
"What...what happened?" Lu Guangrong was the third one to run into the room. Seeing Lu Qihua and Lu Feng looking at the safe with a look of despair on their faces, his voice became faint.
"It's gone. My jade pendant that identifies me as the head of the Lu family, and the will left by my grandfather are all gone!" Lu Qihua collapsed.
"How is that possible? Dad, have you searched everywhere?" Lu Guangrong asked in disbelief.
"I put them in the safe last night, and I searched the safe just now but couldn't find them."
"Could it be that you, Dad, put it in the wrong place?" Lu Guangrong said hopefully.
"No, I put my things in there last night. I locked the safe and checked it three times before I went to bed."
"Grandpa, besides the jade pendant and the will, have you seen anything else?" Lu Feng asked after he reacted.
"Let me take a look." Lu Qihua said after taking a quick look. "In addition to the jade pendant and the will, I'm also missing tens of thousands of US dollars and thousands of red national currency, as well as about a pound of gold bars and five or six pieces of the finest jewelry."
Lu Guangrong: "This...what's going on? Is there a thief in this big hotel?"
"Grandpa, I'll go find the hotel management now."
Lu Feng's words immediately brought everyone back to their senses.
"Yes, yes, Feng'er, go and call for help!" Lu Qihua said as if he was grabbing the last straw.
