Before Lu Yuanqing could finish speaking, Lu Sangning's heart skipped a beat.
A sense of unease settled over me.
She composed herself and forcefully suppressed her unease.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Yuanqing was also trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart.
“Sang Ning, I sent Zhou Fu out to investigate. Zhang Yong is indeed not in Shanghai, but is traveling in Kunming with that Zou Nana.”
"What?!"
Lu Sangning could hardly believe her ears. "Dad, Zhang Yong just called me and said that the reason he didn't return my calls and messages was because he was inspecting the base and he was very busy!"
Lu Yuanqing sighed.
Knowing that Lu Sangning would find it hard to accept for a while, Zhang Yong, that scumbag in human form, could not be allowed to live any longer. The engagement between the two families had to be canceled, and it had to be canceled in a grand and public manner.
"Sang Ning, Dad knows you can't accept this right now, I'll give you time to adjust. Don't give yourself away for now, wait for Zhang Yong to come back and we'll find an opportunity to catch him red-handed, I'll ruin his reputation!"
Pooh!
How dare they deceive my daughter, Lu Yuanqing, and covet my Lu family's assets! I will make sure their Zhang Group disappears from this world!
After hanging up the phone, Lu Sangning slumped into her office chair.
Tears streamed down her face like beads from a broken string.
Although she still doesn't believe her father's claim that Zhang Yong betrayed her, she feels very sad, inexplicably sad.
She and Zhang Yong had been in a relationship for three and a half years, and during that time, Zhang Yong had been very obedient to her and had taken meticulous care of her.
She treated Zhang Yong very well, giving him everything, both financially and emotionally.
The only thing I've been holding back is my body. Influenced by my parents' teachings, I've always been a rather conservative person, always thinking that I'd only give my first time to the person I love when I get married.
Can't my feelings be understood?
Are girls who sleep with just anyone really that great?
Wiping away her tears, Lu Sangning touched up her makeup and made a video call to Zhang Yong.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yong hung up the phone after it rang only once.
Immediately afterward, Zhang Yong sent a message.
Honey, I'm busy right now, I'll get back to you later.
Lu Sangning: "..."
Half a minute later, Lu Sangning called out towards the door, "Secretary Qin!"
Qin Yi walked in and noticed that Lu Sangning's expression was a little off. Being good at reading people, she quickly asked, "Mr. Lu, what's wrong?"
Lu Sangning didn't answer her question, but said coldly, "Have Tian Jun come over, we're going to Shanghai right away."
...
Lu Chi slept in the bedroom until 6 p.m. before getting up.
He asked Wang Ma to get him some food, and then sat lazily in the sun at his doorstep.
As the Lu family members gradually returned home, Lu Jiyang was quietly doing his homework in the study.
Third Sister Lu Yanxin saw Lu Chi lounging on the recliner by the door like a spineless wretch, rolled her eyes at him, and said:
"Look at you, you have no posture at all. Ji Yang is still doing his homework. He only has half a year until the college entrance exam. I don't think you're worried at all."
She added, "Don't think that just because you've entered the Lu family, you're the young master. Apart from Mom and Dad, none of us approve of you. You think you can just freeload and laze around in our Lu family? That's impossible!"
Lu Chi scoffed, "What's so great about a family on the verge of collapse? If my parents hadn't insisted I come home, I wouldn't even bother coming back. If you can't stand me, you can give me money to leave, I'd be more than happy to!"
Lu Yanxin was surprised that Lu Chi dared to talk back to her. If it were Lu Jiyang, he would usually just obediently listen to whatever she said.
Lu Chi is indeed an ill-mannered person.
That country bumpkin from the slums doesn't even understand the basic principle of respecting his older sister!
"You want the Lu family's money? You country bumpkin, you've got some nerve! Keep dreaming!" Lu Yanxin threw down these words and went inside.
Lu Chi snorted coldly.
"Pah! I don't even want to stay here. I'll take the money and leave. Whether your Lu family lives or dies is none of my business!"
Upon hearing Lu Chi's thoughts, Lu Yanxin's face turned ashen with anger.
Ji Yang's younger brother is right. This country bumpkin came home for our family's money. We will never let the Lu family's money fall into his hands!
Lu Jiyang hid by the study window and overheard their entire conversation.
Seeing Lu Yanxin return to her room, she quickly put down her homework, ran down from the third floor, and went to the kitchen to pour Lu Yanxin a cup of coffee.
"Third sister, don't be angry. Brother Lu Chi didn't do it on purpose. Maybe his adoptive parents passed away early, and there were many things he didn't learn. I will slowly teach him how to do things in the future."
Lu Yanxin sighed, patted Lu Jiyang's head, and said, "You're still the best! Don't worry, no one can replace your position in our Lu family. You are the true young master of our Lu family!"
This reassurance made Lu Jiyang extremely happy.
His heart was already in turmoil, but on the surface he still pretended to be calm and composed.
"Third sister, I don't care about whether he's a real young master or a fake young master. I just want to be with you sisters, Dad, and Mom. You are my dearest family, and I don't want to be separated from you!"
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.
Lu Yanxin gently patted Lu Jiyang's back: "Don't worry, in this family, as long as your sisters are on your side, no one will dare to kick you out, not even your parents."
