Chapter 145 Paving the Way
She stopped talking halfway through. When talking to smart people, there is no need to make everything clear.
"Waste!" Old Master Lu was so angry that he lay on his back on the sofa. If he hadn't been in good health, he would have been angered to death by his grandson at this moment.
Lu Jingyu asked fearfully, "Grandpa, what should we do next?"
"What else can we do? This matter will definitely spread out tonight. Do you still want to arrange a marriage? Which good family would dare to marry their daughter to you?" Such an unexpected event happened in a good game of chess, catching Mr. Lu off guard.
He has been scheming against others all his life, and this is the first time he has been schemed against.
As for the person who plotted against him, he couldn't do anything to her for the time being.
"You want to enter the Lu family? I tell you, no way!" After a while, Mr. Lu calmed down and said to Gu Rong, "After the child is born, I will give you some money. The child stays and you leave! Never show up at the Lu family again!"
Gu Rong naturally couldn't accept Mr. Lu's topic. He wanted to get rid of her with just a little money. How could such a good thing happen in the world?
Gu Rong also saw that Mr. Lu cared about this child because she was pregnant. Therefore, she was confident and said to Mr. Lu without fear: "Grandpa, you heard it at the banquet just now. Young Master Lu said he wanted to marry me. Tonight is our engagement banquet. Do you want to break your promise?"
This was the first time that Mr. Lu was being held in such a position. He was furious, but what Gu Rong said was true.
In the business world, reputation is very important.
But if such a scheming woman were to marry into the Lu family, the Lu family would sooner or later fall into her hands.
Mr. Lu narrowed his eyes slightly out of habit, and he already had an idea in his mind.
He said in a deep voice: "Then let's hold the wedding as soon as possible."
"Grandpa, do you really want me to marry her?" Lu Jingyu was very resistant in his heart. He admitted that he did like Gu Rong before, but after being schemed against by Gu Rong several times, he only felt disgust towards this woman.
"The words have already been said, can you go back on your word?" Mr. Lu glared at Lu Jingyu, then ordered the nanny to take Gu Rong away.
The grandfather and grandson came to the study, and Lu Jingyu still wanted to fight for himself: "Grandpa, that bitch is not a simple commodity, I don't want to marry her."
"I know this, but now I am in a dilemma!" Old Master Lu sighed, "After this incident, it's time for you to grow up. Grandpa is old and can't protect you for much longer."
These days, the old man has been nagging him about this every day, and his ears are almost callused.
"I know, I know, Grandpa. Otherwise, you should transfer the shares to my name." It didn't matter if he married Gu Rong. As long as he had money, he could have fun however he wanted.
The old man’s words did not alert him. In Lu Jingyu’s opinion, the old man was in good health and could live for a long time.
"I'll transfer the ownership to you after the child is born." Mr. Lu said to Lu Jingyu, "Gu Rong can't stay!"
Lu Jingyu looked at the old man in shock: “Grandpa, don’t you want to?”
Although Lu Jingyu was bad, he didn’t dare to kill anyone, so he quickly said, “Grandpa, at worst, I can divorce her after she gives birth to a child. There’s no need to get rid of her.”
"Do you think she will agree?" Old Master Lu is a ruthless man. At his age, he has experienced countless things and can see through Gu Rong's ambition at a glance.
"Giving birth to a child is like going through the gates of hell for a woman. We in the Lu family only want children!" Old Master Lu had no intention of hiding this from Lu Jingyu. It was time for him to grow up.
Lu Jingyu opened his mouth wide and said in shock: “Grandpa, does it have to be like this?”
Although he no longer loved Gu Rong, he still couldn't do such a thing as letting that dead man die.
"If a man wants to achieve something, indecision is a taboo!" Old Master Lu said to Lu Jingyu earnestly: "Grandson, this woman is a disaster if she stays with you. You don't want the future of the Lu family to fall into her hands, right?"
Lu Jingyu was puzzled, is Gu Rong so powerful?
This woman just likes money and is a little calculating, but she probably doesn't have that much ability.
However, Mr. Lu insisted, and Lu Jingyu could not do anything, so he could only walk out of the study with a heavy heart.
After Lu Jingyu left, Mr. Lu's cell phone rang.
He picked it up and an anonymous text message popped up: Grandpa, do you like the gift I gave you? I didn't die, I'm sorry to disappoint you!
It’s Yang Yuanming!
Is Gu Rong related to Yang Yuanming?
Old Master Lu broke out in a cold sweat on his back. If the woman wasn't pregnant, he would have wanted to kill her right away!
The nanny made arrangements for Gu Rong, and after the nanny left, she contacted Xu Qingsui as soon as possible.
"Miss Gu, is everything going well?"
"Thank you this time. Don't worry, I am a grateful person. I will definitely help you with anything you want me to do in the future." Gu Rong also had her own considerations. If she wanted to gain a foothold in the Lu family, she had to rely on Xu Qingsui's power.
Unexpectedly, Xu Qingsui also has a relationship with the Zhou family. The strength behind her should not be underestimated, and she will definitely be able to compete with the Lu family.
Now the child is in her belly, she is safe. Once the child is born, her fate will not be good, so she must pave a way for herself.
"Okay." Xu Qingsui had the same idea. She wanted to collect more evidence of the Lu family's crimes, and Gu Rong was the right person.
"Ms. Gu, please be careful at the Lu family and keep in touch at any time." Xu Qingsui said and hung up the phone.
Huo Xilin brought dinner into the ward and happened to hear the conversation between Xu Qingsui and Gu Rong.
"You can handle things more easily now than before." Huo Xilin couldn't help but sigh.
She has really grown a lot during this period of time.
"I have to thank Mr. Huo for his help." Xu Qingsui said sincerely.
But when Huo Xilin heard this, it always felt weird.
"Let's eat." Putting the food on the table, Xu Qingsui could tell at a glance that it was made by Huo Xilin himself.
She had eaten there several times, so she was very impressed by his cooking skills.
"Mr. Huo should have learned cooking skills specifically for Miss Yan, right? Come to think of it, I am also benefiting from Miss Yan." Xu Qingsui smiled bitterly in his heart, not knowing whether it was his luck or misfortune.
Because she looked somewhat similar to Yan Xisui, she became his contract wife. Because of Yan Xisui's help, she was able to eat the meals he cooked himself.
Huo Xilin added a piece of beef to her bowl and said, "I've only cooked for you."
Xu Qingsui looked up suddenly and saw that Huo Xilin looked serious and didn't seem to be lying.
Did she hear it wrong?
"You... lied to me?" Xu Qingsui asked uncertainly.
