Chapter 424: Not Turning Back Until Hitting a Wall
Li Wei pretended to be angry and said, "Lu Ya, I know you're angry right now, but don't go too far. I'm willing to give you a chance because of our long-standing relationship. If you keep being unreasonable, I won't tolerate it."
Lu Ya completely ignored his words. She only cared about one thing: "Stop talking nonsense and pay me back. Otherwise, I'll go to your factory tomorrow and make a scene until you lose your job, you believe me?"
Li Wei, who had always been in control in the relationship, was not threatened by Lu Ya. He remained fearless and started to act like a coward, saying, "If you can swallow your pride, then go ahead. Anyway, I'm too lazy to do that job. Don't you know whether I have money or not? You'll only be able to pay me back if I sell my blood."
Lu Ya was furious, "You bastard!"
"I'm an idiot, so what? I've explained it to you so many times, but you still won't let it go. Do you really think I'm afraid of you? Return the money? You wish."
After Li Wei finished speaking, he shoved Lu Ya aside and walked past her aggressively.
Lu Ya tried to catch up, but Li Wei pushed her back two steps, causing her to stumble and almost fall.
As she watched Lin Wei's departing figure and the sympathetic glances cast at her by the students from the teachers' college, tears finally streamed down her face uncontrollably.
This is the man she loves to the point of obsession.
This is the so-called true love she pursued, even at the cost of severing ties with her family.
She knew all along that this would be the outcome.
She just couldn't give up and always wanted to prove that her judgment was right.
hehe……
At this moment, her classmates stood around her, whispering among themselves.
Every face showed either sympathy or contempt.
They must be laughing at themselves for being so stupid, being completely fooled by a jerk.
Lu Ya gave a bitter smile. She admitted that she was indeed very stupid.
They won't give up until they reach the Yellow River, and they won't turn back until they hit a brick wall.
Now she should give up.
The price she paid to see the true colors of this scumbag was the loss of her family.
She actually broke ties with her family for a scumbag.
Lu Ya walked out of Nancheng Normal College with heavy steps.
Standing on this empty, cold street, she looked bewildered, unsure of where to go.
At this moment, she missed home, the lively atmosphere of her family's meals every day, her mother's incessant nagging, and Zhang Ma's delicious home-cooked dishes.
Even her cousin-in-law, with whom she had a relatively distant relationship, now evokes only positive memories of her.
She actually severed ties with her family for a scumbag.
Lu Ya walked aimlessly down the street, watching the hurried passersby, unsure of where to go.
She recalled all the efforts her mother had made to get her to distance herself from the scumbag, and the disappointed look in her mother's eyes later on.
At that moment, she simply didn't have the courage to go home and face them.
...
Military compound.
At this very moment, bodyguard Zhang Lei was standing in front of Old Master Lu, giving him a detailed account of everything that had happened to Lu Ya that day.
After listening to Zhang Lei's explanation, Old Master Lu's gloomy expression finally eased a bit. "It seems that girl isn't so stupid as to be beyond redemption."
Zhang Lei, who witnessed the whole farce on the campus of Nancheng Normal College, shared his opinion: "Old Chief, I don't think Miss Lu is stupid at all. She went out this time to see Li Wei's true colors."
Zhang Lei said angrily.
"But that man is a scoundrel. Miss Lu asked him to return the money, but he not only refused, he also..."
And then they turned around and accused us; we probably won't get the money back."
Zhang Lei couldn't stand seeing a man behave like that; it was a disgrace to all men.
So he suggested, "Old sir, should we step in..."
Old Master Lu interrupted him, waving his hand, "No need, I just want you to keep an eye on that girl and make sure she doesn't get hurt outside. Don't interfere with anything else, and don't break the rules, lest someone find a handle against me and ruin my reputation in my later years."
"Keep an eye on her and see where she goes."
Zhang Lei nodded. "Received."
After Zhang Lei left, Grandpa Lu sat on the sofa and sighed heavily, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes. Thank goodness.
That girl managed to pull back from the brink and didn't jump.
Otherwise, she would be unworthy of being a child of the Lu family.
Wang Shufen couldn't sleep at night because of anxiety, so she slept until the afternoon during the day.
She had just woken up and went outside when she saw Zhang, the bodyguard, had come to her house. Before she could even hear what he was saying, Old Master Lu had already dismissed him.
Wang Shufen quickly went over and asked anxiously, "Dad, what's Xiao Zhang doing here?"
Her eyes were full of anticipation, hoping to hear news of her daughter.
She had long sensed that her grandfather must have intervened regarding Lu Ya's matter.
The old man didn't specify what he did behind the scenes, but Zhang Lei rarely came to the house unless there was something wrong, and the old man didn't need Zhang Lei to take care of his daily life.
Grandpa Lu didn't hide anything from her at this point, and said with a dark face, "That brat Lu Ya broke up with that guy."
Upon hearing the old man's words, Wang Shufen's previously dull face suddenly lit up. "Really? She finally saw through that scoundrel's true colors?"
Upon hearing this news, Wang Shufen almost burst into tears of joy. She then asked, "Dad, where is Xiaoya now?"
Old Lu replied coldly, "I don't know."
Wang Shufen was secretly overjoyed and planned to go out. "Now that she has broken off her relationship with that man, I have to go find her and make her come home. In this freezing weather, she'll freeze to death if she has nowhere to stay."
Upon hearing her words, Old Master Lu's expression changed, and he ordered in a deep voice, "Stay at home and don't go looking for her. Let her suffer outside and learn a lesson. Otherwise, she'll always think that her family is trying to harm her."
Even if she's come to her senses today, she might make the same mistake again and go back to that guy tomorrow.
At this time, you absolutely cannot leave her to suffer hunger and cold outside.
Be clear that men are unreliable.
Only then will they truly realize it.
If we find her now, after a couple of comfortable days, she'll start thinking about sex again, remembering how good that man was.
Wang Shufen, being a mother herself, was still worried. "Dad, it's so cold outside, I'm really afraid she'll get cold."
"She needs to get colder to clear her head. You've spoiled her too much, which has made her unable to distinguish right from wrong."
Grandpa Lu glared at Wang Shufen and angrily rebuked her, "Don't you know the saying 'spoiling a child is like killing him'?"
“Look at that girl. She’s been pampered since she was little and doesn’t know how to appreciate this hard-won life.”
Wang Shufen naturally understood this principle.
But the child has already been raised this way.
It won't change in a day or two.
She really couldn't bear to see her suffer outside.
Old Lu said, "Listen to me, stay home and don't go out looking for her. She'll come back on her own when she's had enough of wandering outside."
