After receiving a lawyer's letter warning them, Lu Guangxiong and his son had no choice but to sell the Lu Mansion to pay off their debts. Even so, they were still far from getting the amount on the bill.
In addition, the daily treatment costs were also a considerable expense, leaving Lu Huai with no choice but to be discharged early.
After being discharged from the hospital, he had his father push him to the Xie Group.
Meeting in person fosters good relationships, and he wanted to talk to Xie Huanyu face-to-face.
It wasn't until sunset that Lu Huai finally saw Xie Huanyu's figure.
"What are you doing here?" Xie Huanyu asked coldly, looking at the father and son in front of her.
“Yu Bao, I…” Lu Huai’s voice choked as he spoke, his expression sorrowful and his eyes glistening with tears. “I know I said a lot of things I shouldn’t have said that day, but that was only because I was too sad at the time, not because that was my true feeling.”
"We've known each other for so many years, you've long been the most important person in my life."
Crocodile tears.
Watching the man's clumsy acting, Xie Huanyu found it extremely funny.
At the same time, he couldn't help but hate himself for his previous stupidity, for being completely fooled by such a clown. No wonder his father was so angry every time he mentioned it.
Xie Huanyu crossed her arms and asked bluntly, "There are three days left. Have you raised the money yet?"
"Huanyu, do you really not care about our past relationship?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Huanyu scoffed lightly, a hint of coldness creeping into her eyes. "Affection? Heh, Lu Huai,"
"How dare you mention those two words to me? Are you afraid I'll forget how you lied to me before?"
Previously, Lu Huai always liked to bring up their long-standing friendship, using all sorts of persuasion to get Lu Huai to clean up his messes.
Thinking about it, if he really liked me, he wouldn't have had so many different female companions.
This resolute attitude left Lu Huai feeling somewhat at a loss, and even the expression on his face paused for a moment.
He thought that as long as he acted convincingly enough, Xie Huanyu would soften her heart to some extent, and then he could coax her a little and the matter would be over.
Seeing this, Lu Guangxiong, who was standing behind, couldn't help but speak up, "Huanyu, please let us go, okay?"
"We really can't come up with that much money. Your family is so big and powerful, you're not short of money, are you?!"
Xie Huanyu almost laughed in anger at their self-righteous attitude. Perhaps she had been too lenient with the father and son before, which made them think they could be easily fooled.
“I do have the money, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to let you off so easily. Instead of wasting your time here with me, you should hurry up and raise the money.”
With no intention of saying anything more, Xie Huanyu turned and walked away resolutely as soon as the words left her lips.
At the same instant, Lu Huai's face turned extremely gloomy, and the veins on his forehead bulged outwards.
That bitch! She really doesn't know what's good for her!
"What brings you two here today?"
A mocking voice came from behind. Xu Yanshu walked forward unhurriedly, then glanced down at Lu Huai's legs, his tone full of amusement.
"It's done so quickly?"
He had to work overtime because of an urgent document, but little did he know that he would witness a good show as soon as he stepped out of the elevator.
It sounds like Xie Huanyu wants the Lu family to vomit up everything they've already taken.
Even now, this father and son are still delusional about being able to control Xie Huanyu; otherwise, they wouldn't have come all this way here.
Lu Guangxiong immediately spoke up to defend his son, "Xu Yanshu, in the end you're just a gigolo, what's there to be so smug about?"
"But your Lu family seems to have always wanted to live off this woman, so are you just being a sour grapes?"
"you……"
"Leaving aside what happened before, with your son's current appearance, I'm afraid he'll never have the chance to achieve his wish in this lifetime!"
Lu Guangxiong was speechless, his weathered face turning bright red, while Lu Huai's expression was even more unpleasant.
They're all a bunch of despicable people who kick someone when they're down! If it weren't for this car accident, how could he have given Xu Yanshu the opportunity to humiliate him like this?
Seeing this, Xu Yanshu's lips curled up higher and higher, his eyes sparkling with interest, thinking to himself that he could finally experience the joy of speaking without restraint.
Those who commit many unrighteous acts will surely perish. Lu Huai's current predicament is well-deserved.
"I know this car accident wasn't an accident, Xu Yanshu. Could it be related to you?"
He may have offended many people, but few would be capable of orchestrating a car accident like this to retaliate against him.
He initially suspected Xie Junyang was the mastermind, but seeing how eager Xu Yanshu was to kick him while he was down, he suddenly felt that this person was also very suspicious.
Lu Huai stared intently at the person standing in front of him, trying to find a flaw in the other person's face.
"If you really have any doubts, you can just go and call the police,"
Xu Yanshu shrugged dismissively, then jokingly said, "Could it be because your acting was so bad before that God arranged a real car accident for you to experience?"
He knew perfectly well that the other party was deliberately testing him, and when he decided to do so, he had already thought of a foolproof plan: even if Lu Huai really went to the police, he wouldn't be able to find out anything.
So he was the one who revealed the truth about the car accident to Xie Huanyu?
As he pondered, Lu Huai gritted his teeth, his eyes so cold they seemed to want to devour the other person alive.
What a despicable scoundrel!
"By the way, where are you planning to go next? Do you need me to give you a ride? After all—"
Xu Yanshu seemed to suddenly remember something, turned her head and looked at Lu Huai with a serious expression, emphasizing the last sentence, "Lu Huai is not very convenient right now!"
He was given a taste of his own medicine, and now he was experiencing the bitter taste of swallowing a bitter pill.
"you……"
Xu Yanshu gave the father and son a wicked smile, then turned around on his own, his handsome face instantly turning gloomy.
This hellish game has only just begun. If you can't even handle it now, what will the days ahead be like?
"Ah Huai, what do we do now?"
This question completely ignited Lu Huai's anger. He turned around and yelled at the person who asked the question, "What should we do? Do you not have a brain? Of course we should go back first!"
Lu Guangxiong was already feeling bad, but unexpectedly, his son took his anger out on him again, and his face became even more unpleasant.
However, he couldn't bring himself to yell at his son for the moment. After a barely audible sigh, he pushed the wheelchair forward—"Xu Yanshu's sharp tongue is really on full display..."
