“You two really are a father and son.” Lu Zhiwei sniffed and glared at Lu Yunsheng and Jiang Zhan with eyes as sharp as ice blades.
Lu Yunsheng looked at Jiang Zhan and cried.
He loved his son dearly.
He stepped forward to try and calm Lu Zhiwei down.
“Weiwei, if you have any grievances, blame them all on your father. It has nothing to do with Jiang Zhan.”
"How many illegitimate children do you have outside?" Lu Zhiwei asked him.
"No, he's the only one left."
"Do Zhao Xiuying and Lu Jingyao know about this?" Lu Zhiwei asked, her eyes red.
Lu Yunsheng turned his head away: "They don't need to know, this is my own business."
Zhao Xiuying was just Lu Yunsheng's private secretary. Her family background and status were far inferior to the Lu family. She was only brought into the family because her personality pleased Lu Yunsheng and she was pregnant with Lu Jingyao.
When he learned that Lu Jingyao was a daughter, he was probably still unhappy, thinking that he and Zhao Xiuying could have a son.
Zhao Xiuying took too many birth control pills when she was young and had several abortions. Her womb was uncooperative, and she never got pregnant again.
That's why Lu Yunsheng had other ideas.
Lu Zhiwei was once again impressed by her mother Su Wan's decisiveness. She knew when to cut her losses with a scumbag like Lu Yunsheng, and the divorce was swift and clean, without any hesitation.
"When do you plan to hand over the Lu Group to him?" Lu Zhiwei scrutinized Lu Yunsheng, her sharp eyes exuding a powerful aura.
Even Lu Yunsheng had to be wary of them.
"Weiwei, listen to me, what Daddy just said wasn't..."
"Enough. I'm not in the mood to play the filial son/daughter clown game with you anymore. The inheritance of the Lu family is based on gender equality and everything is decided by strength. I'm going to take it."
After Lu Zhiwei finished speaking, she turned and left.
With the Artists Alliance at her disposal and a net worth of hundreds of billions, she doesn't need another Lu Group.
But Lu Yunsheng looked down on her so much.
She fought to the very end for this right of inheritance.
"Why do you have to go against me like this?" Lu Yunsheng looked at her back, his expression changing.
Lu Zhiwei stopped in her tracks and resolutely turned around to look at him.
“I brought you back from abroad, fed you well, and served you the best food and drink. I’ve never neglected you in any way. You should just get married and I’ll give you some shares as a dowry. Why do you insist on becoming the heir to the group?” Lu Yunsheng then took the initiative and started scolding Lu Zhiwei.
It's as if she's the one who did something wrong.
She fought for the inheritance, deviating from the path he had laid out for her and breaking free from his control; this was considered utterly rebellious and unforgivable.
“Just because I have your blood in my veins, everything the Lu family has, everything Jiang Zhan can have, I am also qualified to have.” Lu Zhiwei raised her head, her eyes revealing a cold and aloof stubbornness.
"Alright, starting today, you no longer need to serve as the vice president of the Lu Group. Your position is officially terminated..."
Lu Yunsheng gave her a hard time.
She's just a greenhorn, trying to outdo him? He'll teach her a lesson she won't forget.
"My dismissal at this level requires a board meeting and the unanimous consent of more than half of the shareholders. And you'd better think this through. Once I leave the Lu Group, the Design League will be completely suspended, the apparel department's revenue will plummet, and I will make sure Ruan Jizhou's endorsement is revoked..."
The weight of Lu Zhiwei's words carries the weight of losses calculated in the hundreds of millions.
Since Lu Yunsheng was willing to spend this much money for Jiang Zhan, she had nothing to say.
Outside the door.
Shen Jinmo and Ruan Jizhan watched quietly, their expressions remarkably identical.
What started as heartache has turned into appreciation.
They all knew very well that Lu Zhiwei never needed anyone's pity or sympathy.
After a long pause, Lu Yunsheng changed his tough stance and lowered his guard: "Weiwei, Dad was just confused with anger. Can't we each take a step back? You can continue working at the Lu Group as long as you want, and do whatever you want. But Jiang Zhan is, after all, your brother. Can you accept him back into the Lu family?"
In fact.
No matter how much Lu Yunsheng loved his son, he was still a profit-driven businessman.
The Lu Group was built by him single-handedly.
He will only consider family ties if his own interests remain unchanged.
Whether he goes back to the Lu family or not is your business, it has nothing to do with me.
After saying that, Lu Zhiwei walked straight to the door of the ward.
Sitting in his wheelchair, Jiang Zhan was depressed, his face as white as paper. He pursed his lips, trying his best to suppress his tears.
As Lu Zhiwei passed by him.
He suddenly reached out and grabbed the hem of Lu Zhiwei's hospital gown.
That was the hospital gown she wore specifically to impersonate him; it was the same style as the one he was wearing.
"Sister..." The hoarse voice carried a hint of pleading, as if it were about to break.
"Let go!" Lu Zhiwei glared at him coldly.
That sharp gaze swept over, as if suppressing one's very bloodline.
Jiang Zhan obediently let go of Lu Zhiwei's hand, allowing her to leave.
Shen Jinmo looked comforted.
He won't be the only one to suffer this kind of treatment from Lu Zhiwei anymore; now Jiang Zhan has been added to the list.
When Luo Wuyan saw Lu Zhiwei come out, she reached out and took her arm: "I'm sorry, Weiwei, it was my fault for not stopping him."
"It's alright, he came at the right time."
When you arrive at the elevator, press the down elevator button.
Lu Zhiwei and Luo Wuyan entered the elevator first, followed by Shen Jinmo and Ruan Jizhou.
The elevator arrived at the basement level, and the door opened.
Lu Zhiwei looked at Luo Wuyan and Ruan Jizhou: "You two go back first, I have something to talk to him about."
The one who was left behind was Shen Jinmo.
Shen Jinmo's face lit up with joy.
She thought she was special to Lu Zhiwei.
