59 059 Husband and wife battle
◎Struggle for power.◎
"The adult world is very complicated. When you start to get involved in the company's core business, you will understand it." Ren Lu did not explain, but just said a cliché.
In fact, during her adolescence, she hated to hear such words the most. She always felt that they were perfunctory and looked down on her.
Adults also grew up from children, so why can't we explain the truth to them seriously? Besides, adolescents are not ignorant children who don't understand what people say.
But now that she has reached this point, she understands that sometimes it is not about being perfunctory or looking down on others, but about not knowing how to explain it.
She couldn't tell the truth to Lu Siyue. Lu Hui was actually a hypocritical and perverted old man.
Given Lu Siyue's current state, she can't believe it. Instead, she will let Lu argue even more. If Lu Hui hears about it, she will be in big trouble.
Sure enough, when Lu Siyue heard her say this, his face instantly became gloomy and he glared at her with dissatisfaction.
"I used to think you were different from other people and that you could understand me. Why have you become a bad person now?"
Ren Lu was amused by her straightforward complaint and couldn't help but ask, "It's broken now? As expected——"
She shook her head and swallowed back the words "not grown up". Lu Siyue had indeed not been subjected to the harsh treatment of society and still felt that this society was either black or white.
"I can tell you, but you have to keep it a secret and not tell anyone."
"Okay, you talk and I'm listening." Lu Siyue nodded immediately. She also leaned her head forward, looking as if she was listening attentively.
"You think the reporters are targeting Dad because you don't believe what they say. And I'm not trying to be perfunctory with you, I just don't want to discuss it with you. Because my feelings are opposite to yours, I believe what the reporters say." Ren Lu answered seriously this time.
Lu Siyue's eyes widened in surprise, as if she was frightened, and she immediately retorted: "How can it be true? You have seen how much Dad loves Mom. There is not even a female mosquito around him!"
"Wrong, male mosquitoes don't bite, so there are only female mosquitoes around your father!" Ren Lu snapped her fingers and corrected her in a teasing tone.
Lu Siyue couldn't help but raise her hand and patted her arm gently: "Be serious, I'm telling you something serious! Change the mosquito into a fly, there won't be a single female fly!"
"I can't convince you because I have no evidence, it's just my intuition. You don't have to convince me either. Judging from the reporter's new Weibo post, there will be follow-up. Let's just wait and see!"
"Tsk, your intuition must be wrong!" Lu Siyue snorted coldly and lowered her head to refresh Weibo again.
"Hey, mom also posted on Weibo. She supports dad!" She placed the phone in the middle, and the aunt and sister-in-law leaned against each other to check it.
【Jiang Xiu: I am sorry to bother you all. I believe in my husband. I also hope that you will not bother my daughter and give her some time and space. I bow to you all.】
Jiang Xiu's Weibo post only had three short sentences. There was no public relations rhetoric, only a woman's plea to netizens as a wife and mother.
"Look, mom also believes in dad and speaks for him. Your intuition is really bad!" Lu Siyue shook the phone with a victorious smile on her face.
Ren Lu smiled, didn't say anything, and didn't refute.
Lu Siyue immediately understood what she meant: "You still don't believe it, right?"
"It's just a intuition." Ren Lu began to act ambiguous again.
"You don't believe your father?" The little girl frowned, somewhat dissatisfied, as if Ren Lu's disbelief was a stab in the back to Lu Hui.
"Believe me. I believe in Dad just like my mom does."
As an old pervert, Lu Hui’s character will never change.
In fact, when Jiang Xiu posted this Weibo, Ren Lu immediately guessed her intention.
Jiang Xiu does not have a God's perspective. She is not as sure as Ren Lu that Lu Hui is a pervert, but this does not stop her from making this statement. First, it is to confuse Lu Hui. Second, she said that she believes in Lu Hui's character, but she did not say whether he is good or bad. Even if more evidence is exposed at that time, this clarification will become a stepping stone against him.
"I handed in my cell phone. Can you lend it to me to log into Weibo?" Lu Siyue turned her head and asked.
Ren Lu nodded: "You want to post a blog?"
"Of course, I also want to support my father. Now that my brother is gone, I am the pillar of the family. I have to hold up the sky! You don't have to be afraid in the future, I will support you!" Lu Siyue was operating while saying inspiring words, and her whole body seemed to be glowing.
Ren Lu couldn't help but click her tongue. Is this the charm of the heroine? Just a few words made her seem so upright.
He even took her, his cheap sister-in-law, into consideration and threatened to support her. Tsk tsk.
But she was a bad guy, and couldn't help but pour cold water on the little girl: "That's not it, there is an illegitimate child who is about to be born in the hospital. The old lady is quite feudal, I guess the family business can't be handed over to you, and you can't be the pillar of the family."
Lu Siyue frowned and couldn't help but bump her with her shoulder.
"I just realized that you have a very annoying mouth. You were so kind and gentle when big brother was around." She couldn't help but protest.
After the incident that was exposed online, Lu Siyue has become much more calm about her brother's death than before.
"I was just pretending. I have to maintain my image in front of the person I like." She blinked.
Well, it’s not easy for her to earn the inheritance.
She acted like a filial wife all day long. After finally waiting for the person to die and getting the huge inheritance, she naturally returned to her bad nature. If the Lu family dared to count her money, she would bring the Lu family to ruin.
【Lu Siyue: First of all, thank you for speaking for me. I was indeed unaware of what happened that day. I will apologize to my brother. But please don’t say that about my father. He is not that kind of person. My mother and I both believe in him!
I will not go abroad, nor will I escape. I will stay in China to take the college entrance examination. In fact, if my mother sees this Weibo, she will definitely nag me again, thinking that I have attracted too much attention from everyone. If my grades are not ideal, all kinds of comments may drown me out.
But I am not afraid. Just like what netizens said, I am an adult and I have to take responsibility for what I have done. Whether I succeed or fail, I am mentally prepared. Thank you all.
I have handed in my phone, so I borrowed Lu's phone to post this, so I can't read the comments afterwards. I hope everyone can be happy every day! 】
Ren Lu watched her typing bit by bit, and her heartbeat quickened.
As expected, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. She dares to say anything. Just looking at this Weibo post, you can see her naivety.
"Don't you regret it?"
A second before she was about to speak, Ren Lu held her hand and asked softly.
"No regrets. I am an adult and I must take responsibility." Lu Siyue raised her head, looked at her, and said this in a firm tone.
Ren Lu noticed her seriousness. Looking at the girl in front of her whose face was still a little childish but whose eyes were firm and calm, she felt for the first time the personal charm of Lu Siyue as the heroine.
She let go of her hand and watched Lu Siyue's announcement with her own eyes. She couldn't help but chuckle and teased, "You know what? Ever since you got together with Huang Mao, you often show this expression to your family, unyielding, as if you were fighting against evil forces. But I always find it funny, you are just a stubborn person who doesn't know what to do. But that look just now was great, it electrified me."
Lu Siyue curled her lips and returned the phone.
"If you want to praise me, just do it directly. Don't bring up the past. Besides, I've already broken up with him. Let's talk about it after the college entrance examination."
The mother and daughter posted on Weibo one after another, which caused a heated discussion again, and the hot searches were almost all monopolized by the Lu family.
After seeing that the Lu family had almost "attacked with all their forces", He Wen became extremely excited. She kept turning around in the living room like a donkey pulling a mill, with a carrot hanging in front of her eyes, preventing her from stopping.
Lu Sinian sat on the sofa, his eyes hurt from her spinning around in circles, and he couldn't help but frown.
"Be quiet and sit down."
"I can't sit still. Why? Is that old pervert's acting so good? Ms. Jiang and Ms. Lu trust him so much! Fortunately, goddess Lu didn't come out to support him, otherwise I would really collapse." He Wen spread out his hands, looking anxious and disappointed.
"That's not right. Didn't Ms. Jiang privately message me before? She didn't seem to trust Lu Hui blindly. Why did she change now? Was she coaxed into submission by Lu Hui? I can't accept that Ms. Jiang is a love-brained person!"
When she mentioned the love-brain, she couldn't help but shudder. Apparently, she was frightened after imagining that scene. She raised her hands and grabbed her hair, as if trying to sober herself up.
When Lu Sinian saw how excited she was, he knew that he couldn't change her mind anytime soon, so he let her act to an end before starting to communicate normally.
"Why aren't you anxious at all? Have you seen the comments below? Many people originally believed my revelations, but now they are fooled away. Family affection is indeed the best weapon for whitewashing. No wonder some people like to use family members to whitewash themselves. This is really easy to mislead people." She turned around and questioned him.
She carefully read all the hot comments under the three Weibo posts, including the one posted by the reporter questioning Lu Hui and the one from Lu's mother and daughter.
Coincidentally, one of the accounts got all the hot comments, but the attitude was completely opposite.
——Haha, I knew that Old Man Lu was not a good guy. He can’t clear himself from this with me. No matter what, I don’t believe it’s a coincidence. Come on, real reporter, I’m waiting for you to continue to expose the truth and let this scumbag die!
——Ah, Mrs. Lu must have a hard time. It’s really hard to be a famous woman, having to protect her husband and take care of her daughter!
——Woo woo woo, Yueyue is simply a little angel. She has been scolded a lot, but she still wishes everyone a happy day. I feel like I am back to the time when I was not a vicious woman. I hope you will not be let down, and your family will be happy too!
It is obvious that this user completely followed the content posted by the blogger. She wanted to kill Lu Hui, felt sorry for Jiang Xiu, defended Lu Siyue, and even started to wish the family well in the end. Of course, this also included the scumbag she wanted to kill.
Lu Sinian seemed to be taking his time, still sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
"It's not you who should be anxious right now, but the Lu family couple."
"What do you mean? Lu Hui previously used charity as a shield, and now his wife and daughter are standing up for him. The public opinion is in his favor. He should think that he can manipulate public opinion and even whitewash his cheating. Is he afraid that I have other evidence? Ms. Jiang doesn't need to worry, she doesn't have any black material to expose." He Wen scratched his head, feeling like he couldn't move.
She is very good at investigating the truth, but the family relationships of the Lu family are a complete mess. Although she has been with Lu Sinian for a long time, this Mr. Lu always says that he has lost his memory and speaks in a confusing manner, just like cultivating immortals, which is completely incomprehensible.
"Just wait, I think there's going to be a big show to watch. Ms. Jiang is a very perceptive person. She asked you to hold off on revealing the information and give her some time, which proves that she is setting up a chess game. Although the old man is a pervert, he values his career more than women. It won't be easy for Ms. Jiang to offend him." There was some excitement in the man's eyes, and he was looking forward to what was going to happen next.
His excitement was visible to the naked eye. After all, the fact that he could make a pretentious guy speak for such a long time showed how excited he was.
Unfortunately, He Wen didn't understand a word he said and became even more confused.
"No, can you speak human language?" she protested.
The man turned to look at her, frowned slightly, and seemed a little speechless.
"Which one is not human language?" he asked back.
In fact, he had revealed enough and his words were very straightforward, but she still couldn't understand.
"Not a single one of them."
"People can understand." He emphasized again, waved his hand, unwilling to continue to tangle with her, and restarted the topic: "This is not your area of expertise, don't worry about it, just be a good reporter."
After saying this, Lu Sinian returned to his room.
He Wen thought about it carefully before realizing what it meant, and immediately waved his fist in protest.
"What do you mean? Are you calling me a non-human? If you have the guts, don't hide in your room, you coward!"
***
Ren Lu was sleeping soundly when suddenly a ringing bell rang, disturbing her sweet dream.
"Hello." She responded vaguely.
"Lulu, it's me."
"Mom, is there something wrong?" When Ren Lu heard her voice, she immediately became more sober.
Jiang Xiu is a very sensible person and never makes phone calls in the middle of the night. But he made an exception today, and it was obvious that something big had happened.
"Mom, I have a favor to ask you. If Lu Hui wants to buy your shares, can you help delay it? Don't tell him that you have already transferred them to me." Jiang Xiu spoke anxiously, and the background noise was messy. It was obvious that she was outside, not in a quiet room.
Ren Lu woke up completely, and she agreed directly: "Okay, I will try to hold him back, but it won't last long. You know, when it comes to interests, he is a very smart and calm man."
Jiang Xiu closed her eyes. It turned out that even her daughter-in-law had seen clearly what kind of man Lu Hui was. Only she was still immersed in his gentleness.
She originally didn't plan to say too much to Ren Lu. After all, she didn't want Ren Lu to get involved, lest Lu Hui hold a grudge against Ren Lu.
But after hearing what his daughter-in-law said, Jiang Xiu suddenly felt the urge to talk.
"He and I are going to fight. Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you. I will resolve the fight as soon as possible."
"Mom, you will never make things difficult for me. I am on your side." Jiang Xiu sat up and leaned against the head of the bed. Perhaps because late at night is a time when people tend to be sentimental, she simply lowered her head and did some work.
"I have transferred the money to you, please accept it. I wish you victory in advance!"
"Lulu!" Jiang Xiu called her excitedly, her breathing became heavier. She had so many things to say in her heart, but she couldn't say them. In the end, she could only say thank you: "Thank you, Mom."
The call didn't last long. Although Jiang Xiu was very moved and wanted to say more, he obviously didn't have the time and soon hung up.
Ren Lu leaned against the head of the bed, and her sleepiness completely disappeared.
Her premonition came true. From the moment Jiang Xiu called Lu Hui's name in front of her, she realized that Jiang Xiu was planning something big.
Afterwards, Jiang Xiu went to work for the Lu family and even bought her shares privately. All these things proved Jiang Xiu's ambition and ability to take action.
It was not until this phone call that the matter was made clear that Jiang Xiu wanted to seize power from Lu Hui.
Jiang Xiu hung up the phone and walked into a villa. Today she was going to visit one of the shareholders of Shengtian Group and also Lu Hui's brother.
Although it was not a good idea to visit in the middle of the night, she had a feeling that Lu Hui had noticed her actions and she had to speed up.
When she was led into the living room by the servant, she saw Lu Hui and the shareholder sitting at the dining table. Both men were holding wine glasses and toasting each other.
When Lu Hui saw Jiang Xiu in a professional suit, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. There was no surprise on his face. He just looked at the brothers around him.
"Meng, why did you call your sister-in-law here in the middle of the night? She needs to get some beauty sleep."
"Oh, my sister-in-law is here. You two are really a loving couple. You both chose the same day and time to ask me out, and you both look very anxious." Meng Dong smiled with an envious expression on his face.
Jiang Xiu stood at the door. The lights were on inside the house, but it was cloudy outside. The weather was bad today and not even a star could be seen. Her mood was the same.
"Since you're here, let's sit down and have a midnight snack together." Lu Hui raised his glass at her.
"Sister-in-law, come here quickly. It's just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks. Speaking of which, I love the sweet soup stewed by sister-in-law the most. Brother Hui is in for a treat." Meng Dong also greeted her.
"It's just a bowl of soup, it's no big deal. Seeing how greedy you are, I can ask your sister-in-law to make it now..." Lu Hui patted his shoulder, looking like a good brother.
Jiang Xiu's head was buzzing, his vision gradually went dark, his body was shaking, and he almost couldn't stand.
She felt like she was split in half. One half of herself nodded with a smile, joked with Meng Dong, then walked into the kitchen, made soup for the two men, and reminded them to drink less, as eating at night was not good for the body. Then she went back to the kitchen and prepared another pot of sobering soup.
The other half just stood there, breathing hard, looking pale, wanting to scream loudly not to go, she was not a babysitter who made soup, nor was she someone who could be ordered around at will.
Suddenly she felt as if something had completely broken. The image of her busying herself in the kitchen shattered into pieces like glass and then disappeared.
"Xiu Xiu, why are you in a daze? I haven't seen Lao Meng for a long time. He has been a greedy boy since he was young. Just satisfy him." Lu Hui couldn't help but urge her.
Jiang Xiu finally walked in. Seeing her obedient appearance, Lu Hui couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips, with a hint of pride in his eyes.
He knew that she loved him, could not live without him, and would never resist him.
Jiang Xiu walked to the table, looked at the dishes one by one, and finally picked out the boiled pork slices with the most soup, picked it up and poured it at Lu Hui.
In fact, she wanted to overturn the table, but the bastard Meng Dong was using a solid wooden table, so she definitely couldn't overturn it. She could only "take care of" Lu Hui alone.
"Satisfy your uncle, I'll drink you two to death!" She did not forget to curse.
"Fuck!" Lu Hui was totally unprepared and was splashed directly onto her face. Moreover, Jiang Xiu used all her strength and aimed it directly at his face.
Fortunately, they had three rounds of drinks and the food was not so hot, otherwise he would have been disfigured.
But even so, it wasn't much better. The boiled pork slices were so spicy that they choked his nose. Even if he closed his eyes in time, the spiciness still made him cry.
"Brother Hui, are you okay?" Meng Dong jumped up immediately and took two steps back, fearing that Jiang Xiu would attack him.
Jiang Xiu looked at Meng Dong with some regret. It was obviously too late for her to take action now. She gave him a look of disdain, turned around and left, without any intention of worrying about Lu Hui at all.
Lu Hui was busy closing his eyes and wiping his face, and had no time to settle the score with Jiang Xiu, but he didn't stop cursing.
"Jiang Xiu, you are fucking crazy. We all know why you came here tonight. Dongzi is my brother, how could he turn his elbow outward? How dare you turn against me? I am lucky enough that I didn't settle accounts with you. Just wait and see if I kill you..."
Meng Dong quickly called his aunt to help him clean up, and then called the family doctor to come over.
When Lu Hui finally wiped his face clean and was able to open his eyes, he looked around and found that Jiang Xiu was nowhere to be found.
"Where is she?"
"Sister-in-law? She left. She left after splashing water. She couldn't have stayed to get beaten!" Meng Dong said quite honestly.
"What the hell are you saying! Can't you stop it?" Lu Hui raised his foot and kicked him, his teeth itching with hatred.
"I couldn't stop her. If I hadn't dodged quickly, my sister-in-law would have splashed it on my face."
Thinking of Jiang Xiu's eyes before he left, Meng Dong scratched his head in distress.
"Boss, did your sister-in-law know about what you did? I think something is wrong with her."
"There's definitely something wrong with her. This bitch is going to rebel, and I'm just being too nice to her!"
Lu Hui's face was gloomy. In front of Meng Dong, he didn't need to pretend. He was completely himself and used a string of swear words.
The Lu couple completely fell out and began fighting for power.
Originally, Jiang Xiu was afraid of being exposed, so all her actions were secretive and she was very cautious in choosing her candidates. However, all the shares that could be purchased had already been pocketed by her. If she wanted to compete with Lu Hui, she had to start with his brothers. Ultimately, she suffered a Waterloo at the hands of Meng Dong.
Now that Lu Hui knew about it, Jiang Xiu no longer hid it, and the couple openly started their battle for the matter.
The employees in the company were not there to do nothing but work. Naturally, they all noticed that the boss and the boss' wife were not getting along, and they were in a state of panic.
The news even spread to the Internet, and someone broke the news on an anonymous forum. Later, the identities of the chairman and his wife were revealed, and it instantly topped the popularity list of various platforms, with the discussion level reaching the maximum.
——What do you mean? I don't quite understand. Is this a mistake?
——The world is changing too fast. Ten days ago, Mrs. Lu was still supporting Mr. Lu. Why are they fighting now?
——Oh shit, this feels so exciting. Is a fight between the wealthy couple about to begin?
——Mrs. Lu cannot beat Mr. Lu. One is a housewife and the other is the chairman of the group. It is obvious who will win and who will lose.
——Tsk, those who look down on Jiang Xiu, should they read what they are saying? Her last name is Jiang, and she is the daughter of a wealthy family. When she married Lu Hui, the old Lu family had gone bankrupt, and Lu Hui started from scratch. The headline of the news was "The daughter cut the price to marry the bankrupt Lu."
——Hahahaha, I remember now. I was very young at that time, and I was shocked when I saw the title. Lu Hui was not even given his name and was simply called “Qiong Lu”.
——Tsk tsk, who would have thought that Mr. Lu, who is so powerful in the business world today, was called Poor Lu when he was young. He was a recognized poor boy by the public, but he was also lucky enough to marry the daughter of the Jiang family.
Although Ren Lu was mentally prepared when she saw the news, she was still surprised when she saw the revelations released online that the two had a fierce quarrel and even did not give each other face during meetings.
Just as she was trying to find more revelations, her cell phone rang and the screen showed: Lu Hui.
She raised her eyebrows. Good, this cheap father-in-law finally remembered to call her. But it also confirmed that he was pushed to the extreme by Jiang Xiu, otherwise he would not bother to ask his daughter-in-law for help.
