Chapter 828 Informing Xu Yi
This is something Xu Chen owes him, and he must repay it!
Although Sang Ruo already knew about his plan, she was still a little worried: "Ayan, your idea is good, but it also depends on whether Lu Jinan is willing to do it! He's such a shrewd person, how could he not see through your scheme? What if he turns the tables on you?"
"At that time, you will be in a very passive position!"
Especially since it involves his uncle, it's true that he'll definitely go to his uncle to raise the money, but what happens after he goes to his uncle? Who knows if his uncle will end up joining forces with Lu Jinan?
If this matter were to reach the ears of Old Master Bo, then Ayan would certainly be in for a good scolding!
From any perspective, she felt that this move was too risky.
But Bo Jinyan couldn't stand Xu Chen's inability to distinguish right from wrong: "For you, it's worth it even if I become passive."
He enjoyed it immensely.
...
When Lu Nanchu brought the news back, Lu Jinan slammed his fist on the table in his study: "Hmph! This Bo Jinyan, he's quite greedy, daring to use me? Does he really think I wouldn't dare to deal with him?"
"Dad, don't be angry. I don't think my cousin meant that." Lu Nanchu stood in front of his desk. The entire study was quiet and peaceful. She had specifically sent Xu Chen away to talk about this: "My cousin just doesn't want us to get involved in Xu Chen's affairs..."
"Dad, in my opinion, let's just leave him alone. If we ignore him, Bo Jinyan might return our Lu's Bank shares to us! We absolutely cannot let the bank's shares flow out because of Xu Chen!"
Anyway, she had talked to Bo Jinyan, and his attitude was very clear: he didn't want his family to take care of Xu Chen and let him fend for himself!
Although Xu Chen's current predicament is partly her fault, the majority of the responsibility lies with his own indecisiveness, which ultimately harmed him.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jinan's expression darkened, and he tentatively asked, "Nan Chu, are you sure there's absolutely no room for negotiation regarding this fifty million US dollars?"
If things go as he wishes, wouldn't that be too easy on that kid?
Since he wants to take advantage of this situation, he must offer some bait in order to reap the benefits.
It's impossible for him to get all of this without giving anything in return.
“I’ve confirmed it, there’s no room for negotiation.” Lu Nanchu understood Bo Jinyan’s attitude, which is why she did this: “Dad, as for the ten million you set before, it’s not even worth mentioning in their eyes.”
It's obvious they're trying to use this method to make them back down.
She just wanted to back down and didn't want to deal with it anymore.
I just don't know what Dad is really thinking.
Lu Jinan smiled sarcastically, but said nothing. He simply said casually, "Nan Chu, tell the butler to prepare the car. You'll be coming with me to the Xu family's old residence later."
Go to the Xu family's old house?
"Dad, why are you still going to the Xu family's old house at a time like this?" Lu Nanchu asked, puzzled. "Aren't you worried that our bank's shares will fall into the hands of outsiders?"
Instead of hurrying up to reclaim the shares, they actually have the mind to go to the Xu family's old house?
Xu Chen has already been kicked out of the Xu family, and now even Xu Yi doesn't care about him anymore, so why is Dad still going there?
As Lu Jinan walked out, he said, "Of course I'm worried. That's why I went to see Xu Yi this time."
Since this was Bo Jinyan's request, he had no choice but to go.
Half an hour later, the car came to a smooth stop in front of the Xu family's old house.
Since it was Lu Jinan who brought Lu Nanchu on the visit, the Xu family steward quickly rushed in to inform Xu Yi: "Master, there are two distinguished guests surnamed Lu outside who want to see you. They say they have important matters to discuss."
Important matters?
Upon noticing the word, Xu Yi paused for a few seconds while fiddling with his prayer beads, then casually said, "Let them in."
"yes."
The butler quickly brought Lu Jinan and his daughter in, and then thoughtfully served them a pot of fine Wuyi Mountain Da Hong Pao tea, placing it on the table next to them before leaving the reception room.
“My dear in-law, although you no longer acknowledge Xu Chen as your son, I still respectfully address you as my in-law.” Lu Jinan spoke first, sitting down in the mahogany chair to Xu Yi’s left: “I’ve come today to discuss something with you.”
Xu Yi noticed his impolite actions and said indifferently, "What is it?"
"Regarding your son, he went to borrow money from Bo Jinyan for five million, and even used our Lu's Bank shares as collateral to sell to Bo Jinyan at a low price!"
When this matter was brought up, Lu Jinan's expression turned sour: "In-law, if I remember correctly, when our two families arranged this marriage, my Lu family specifically requested that the shares not be transferred to anyone outside the Lu family without authorization, right?"
Selling shares? For five million?
How is that possible!
Xu Yi was unaware of this matter and thought that Lu Jinan had fabricated a lie to target him: "I say, President Lu, your lie is so flimsy! Xu Chen has been well-fed and well-clothed since childhood, and has never lacked anything in terms of food, drink, or entertainment. When did he ever sell off his shares in Lu's Bank for five million? You'd better not joke around."
This kind of joke is actually not funny at all.
To put it bluntly, this is clearly an insult from the Lu family to the Xu family!
This is disrespecting the Xu family!
“I never joke. Do I look like someone who would joke?” Seeing his denial, Lu Jinan couldn’t help but say seriously, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask Nan Chu and see what she has to say!”
"Nan Chu, tell your future father-in-law everything Xu Chen has done recently! Let's see what he has to say then!"
Lu Nanchu spoke with some difficulty: "Uncle Xu, what my father said is true. The real reason is that Xu Chen wanted to sell our wedding house in New York in order to raise money for Wen Qingyi's release from bondage. Of course, I disagreed! So, as a punishment, I cut off all his credit cards!"
“All the credit cards under his name were issued by our Lu’s Bank, so cutting off his credit cards is equivalent to cutting off his source of income! He had no money to use, so he went to Bo Jinyan to borrow money. He borrowed five million, and then used our bank’s shares as a bargaining chip to sell to Bo Jinyan.”
"That's exactly what happened, Uncle Lu. I haven't lied about a single word. You can judge for yourself."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yi's face instantly darkened. He gripped the prayer beads with such force that he seemed to want to snap them in two, and even his words were laced with gritted teeth: "That unfilial son! What exactly does he want to do?!"
Is he willing to go against all of them for Wen Qingyi's sake?!
