Seeing that her father was hesitant to agree, Xie Huanyu took the initiative to invite Lu Guangxiong out after careful consideration.
"Huanyu, do you mean you want to completely sever ties with us?"
Xie Huanyu nodded stiffly, then took out a yellow envelope. "If you and A-Huai ever need any help in the future, just go to these people."
She had to completely sever ties with the Lu family, and since Ah Huai was determined to start his own business, he would definitely need help. This was the last thing she would do for him.
Lu Guangxiong hesitated to reach out and take it, instead looking at Xie Huanyu with suspicion.
If it's because of Xie Junyang, that old man had always opposed Xie Huanyu getting close to them before, but it didn't really have any impact. Why is he suddenly trying to draw a line now?
She finally managed to owe him a life-saving favor; how could she possibly let him repay it with such a small amount?!
After letting out a heavy sigh, Lu Guangxiong asked, "Huanyu, do you think these are the only things we care about? The most important thing is the friendship you and Ahuai have known for so many years!"
"You know how much you mean to Ah Huai. If you really distance yourself from us like this, Ah Huai will be heartbroken!"
She knew, but there was nothing she could do...
Xie Huanyu turned her face away uncomfortably, her red lips slightly pursed, and her eyes filled with fluctuating emotions.
She was no match for her father, and no matter how resentful she was, she dared not openly defy him.
Otherwise, I don't know what terrible and cruel lessons I would have suffered.
Continuing to associate with the Lu family under these circumstances would only cause them to continue being targeted by their father.
"Uncle Lu, I had no choice but to do this. Keeping our distance is better for both of us right now. We can talk about the rest later!"
After saying that, Xie Huanyu stood up on her own, put her sunglasses back on, and walked out of the restaurant.
Watching the other person's departing figure, Lu Guangxiong's face turned extremely gloomy, and he couldn't help but let out a heavy snort.
You think you can sever ties with them like that? No way!
He glanced at the yellow envelope on the table again, and his expression softened slightly before he put the contents into his pocket.
After glancing around, Lu Guangxiong got up and left the private room.
...
Lu Huai had just learned that Xie Huanyu wanted to sever ties with him when Butler Wang appeared in his hospital room.
“My master is very grateful to Young Master Lu for saving Miss’s life. After you are discharged from the hospital, Miss and her husband will hold a banquet to thank you.”
"The master will also have a great gift to give you then." Butler Wang said with a forced smile, his tone unhurried yet intriguing.
A grand gift?
Lu Huai's brow twitched, and his expression changed almost imperceptibly. For a moment, he couldn't figure out what the other party was up to.
It was so difficult for her to put on such a big show for Xie Huanyu, and before she could even get any benefits, that old scoundrel Xie Junyang took her away and was now forcing her to sever ties with her.
However, since the other party still held leverage over him, Lu Huai didn't dare to easily break off relations. After suppressing his emotions, he politely replied,
"I understand, I'll definitely be there on time! Thank you for making this special trip!"
Let's just keep taking care of it for now; these few good days may be the only ones we have left.
Butler Wang handled the situation with ease, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes. The master was absolutely right; Lu Huai, that good-for-nothing, was no match for Xu Yanshu in the slightest.
The Lu family truly brought this upon themselves. Originally, the master didn't intend to put them to death, but they kept trying to make their presence felt, and now the master could no longer tolerate them.
Watching the other person turn and leave, Lu Huai's face immediately turned so gloomy it looked like it was about to drip water, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of water.
What's there to be proud of? It's nothing but a dog relying on its master's power!
Could this so-called "gift" be those photos he possesses...?
As Lu Huai was making his own guesses, a tall and slender figure entered his field of vision.
"You seem to be recovering well. I believe you'll be discharged soon!" Xu Yanshu said calmly, then found a spot not too far away to sit down.
Lu Huai gritted his teeth instantly, "Don't be too smug!"
"That old bastard Xie Junyang might suddenly die any day now. Do you think Xie Huanyu will still pay attention to you then?"
It seems he truly hates his cunning father-in-law.
Xu Yanshu raised an eyebrow noncommittally. This man still didn't seem to understand that he had long since stopped caring about Xie Huanyu, and was only concerned about whether he could make him pay the price for his actions.
"Young Master Lu, do you like Tibetan Mastiffs?"
Lu Huai nodded without hesitation, "I like it! I love strong and powerful animals like this the most, because they can bite those arrogant cats and dogs to death in one bite!"
Xu Yanshu kept staring at Lu Huai without blinking, but he couldn't see any flaws. This made him wonder if he had come up with the wrong idea. Could it be that the car accident had nothing to do with Lu Huai?
"But if Mr. Xu encounters a Tibetan Mastiff in the future, remember to stay far away, because they hate spineless beasts the most!"
Lu Huai added another sentence slowly, vaguely sensing that the other party wanted to test something, and a hint of hostility unconsciously appeared in his eyes.
It's one thing that Xie Junyang won't let him go right now, but Xu Yanshu is also keeping a close eye on him.
The old man is already dead; the dead cannot be brought back to life. Does he expect me to pay for that old man's life?!
What's the use of being quick-witted? True skill lies in actually putting the other person to death!
A deep, sinister glint flashed in Xu Yanshu's eyes. He curled his lips in an ambiguous way, not intending to stay any longer. He stood up from his seat on his own.
"Take good care of yourself and try to get discharged from the hospital as soon as possible, otherwise the weather outside might change any day!"
After leaving those words behind, Xu Yanshu turned and walked out of the ward.
He turned back to his car and quickly lit a cigarette, taking several puffs to barely calm the agitation in his chest.
God knows how much rationality he used to keep himself calm. Ever since his grandmother passed away, all he has been thinking about is how to make Lu Huai pay the price for his actions, besides regretting not confessing sooner.
After calming down completely, Xu Yanshu seemed to be deep in thought, muttering to himself, "Soon!"
As soon as Lu Huai leaves this hospital, his plan will immediately be put into action, and at that time, the young master Lu's life will officially enter hell mode...
