Chapter 184 The Meng Family Can’t Protect You Forever
Little Anran used to be innocent, longing for family affection and liked to follow her two older brothers. She was able to persist until she was nine years old because she felt a little bit of love from her brothers when she was very young.
As far as she could remember, her parents had never held her. She had two older brothers. The eldest was ten years older than her, taciturn and looked fierce; the second was eight years older than her, naughty and mischievous, and often got beaten.
When she was two years old and had just learned to walk, she was taken care of by an old aunt. The old aunt always said things in her ear in a fierce voice that she could not understand. She did not let her eat or sleep comfortably. Every day she was treated like a doll and she was dressed in all kinds of beautiful but uncomfortable clothes.
She was unhappy and did not do things well, so the old aunt always scolded her and made her cry.
One time, she started crying again, and her eldest brother gave her a cold look, which frightened her so much that she immediately held back her tears. The eldest brother said to the old aunt, "You accepted the Lu family's money to teach Anran etiquette, but don't forget that she is the Lu family's only daughter. Be careful with your attitude."
Later, the old lady didn't dare to be mean to her anymore. The eldest brother told her, "The children of the Lu family can act like spoiled brats, be arrogant, and even do whatever it takes. Don't cry when things go wrong. No one in this world is worth the Lu family's daughter's tears."
Little Anran half understood and half understood what was said. She felt that her eldest brother was very good to her. Her parents didn't care about her, and her second brother didn't like her either. Only her eldest brother cared about her feelings, so she liked to play with her eldest brother.
That day she wanted her eldest brother to take her to the amusement park, but he had a pile of books in front of him, all written in scribbled characters. He dismissed her casually, saying, "There's a treasure buried in the backyard. If you find it, I'll play with you."
She knew that her brother might be lying to her, but she didn't want to disturb his studies, so she picked up her pink shovel and ran to the backyard to dig for treasure.
She wanted to dig a few holes in the backyard and put her bracelet in them, pretending that it was a treasure she had found. Then her brother would accompany her to the amusement park.
Unexpectedly, she really dug up something, a pink envelope.
She didn't know what was inside, but she knew that her elder brother was very happy after seeing it, and bought a big cake for her and the little brother she had just met.
But... the second brother didn't seem happy. What she dug up seemed to be the second brother's treasure. The second brother was angry and tore her favorite teddy bear to pieces.
Second brother is indeed the worst!
When she was three years old, little Anran was sent to a private kindergarten in a villa area.
That was the first time that little Anran saw so many children of the same age as herself. She wanted to play with them, but they didn’t seem to like her.
In order to fit in with them, she asked the maid to prepare a lot of candies and cookies for her at night. She thought, no one could refuse sweet snacks!
However, the next day when she was about to go out to kindergarten with her snacks, her eldest brother found her snacks and threw all of them into the trash can.
He warned her in a very serious tone: "You are the eldest daughter of the Lu family. You can only let others please you. No one in the world is qualified to ask you to accommodate them."
Little Anran cried very sadly that day, but she seemed to remember her elder brother's words subconsciously.
Although he did not understand the meaning of the words at that time, he realized at the age of nine that no one in the family cared about him, and he could no longer tolerate the control and targeting of his two brothers.
The young lady cannot lower her noble head. If she is unable to fight back, she should first learn to strengthen herself.
So, I have Meng Pingran now.
The memories of the past faded in her mind, no longer stirring any waves in her heart. Meng Anran stared at Lu Heng for a long moment, then suddenly sneered, "Young Master Lu, who are you to teach me now? I put on a good show with you, but you stretched your hand too far."
Lu Heng took the button back. The condition was very simple. He asked Meng Anran to put the blame on Lu Qingcheng, and then he would agree with her and have a legitimate reason to kick Lu Qingcheng out of the house.
He didn't care about his reputation, but even though the Lu family went bankrupt, he still had to develop his own business. If word got out that he ignored his own sister and even killed her, it wouldn't look good.
Now there is a good excuse: Lu Qingcheng was unwilling to stay in the Lu family, so she took the initiative to contact the Meng family, and also stole Bai Yujin's heirloom in preparation for leaving the Lu family.
Firstly, she wanted to leave on her own initiative, and secondly, her actions were dishonest, so it was natural that Lu Heng did not try to keep her.
The reason why Meng Anran agreed to Lu Heng was very simple. This button became a piece of evidence. If it was not retrieved, the Meng family would most likely be involved in the internal strife of the Lu family.
Although she would definitely be able to prove her innocence in the end, there were too many troubles in the process and she didn't want to waste time dealing with them.
Besides, Bai Yujin's kidnapping has already put the Meng family in the spotlight, and it is not appropriate to make any more mistakes at this moment.
Lu Heng's eyes flickered with dissatisfaction, but he quickly regained his stern demeanor. He opened his lips slightly, his voice low and dangerous, "Do you really think you can escape the Lu family and stay out of trouble?"
Meng Anran raised her eyes, meeting his gaze fearlessly, a hint of sarcasm on the corner of her lips: "Why, are you threatening me, Mr. Lu?"
Lu Heng stared at her for a moment, then turned his gaze away and looked at his reflection in the window: "I'm just reminding you that the Meng family can't protect you forever."
What belongs to me will eventually come back to me.
He added secretly in his heart.
"Don't bother." Meng Anran gave a polite smile and turned to enter the elevator.
The man's tall figure disappeared in the squeeze of the elevator door, and all the expressions on Meng Anran's face disappeared in an instant.
I have to admit that Lu Heng is right. The Meng family cannot protect her forever.
Back then, I naively thought that after leaving the Lu family and moving my household registration to the Meng family, I would have a new guardian and would not be easily taken away by Lu Heng and Lu Yi.
But she forgot that these two people have always been unreasonable in their actions. If they were not planning to bring down the Lu Group at that time, they would have kidnapped her and taken her away by force.
The Lu Group went bankrupt, and the alliance between Lu Heng and Lu Yi ended. She had to be more vigilant.
As soon as I walked out of the hospital, Qin Mu called.
"Miss, are you free to have dinner with me?"
Hearing Qin Mu's voice, Meng Anran suddenly felt relieved, and her voice was filled with laughter: "Where are we going to eat?"
"Go back to Lihua Garden and I'll cook for you?"
"good."
…
On the other side, a small villa in the suburbs.
Bai Yujin was wearing a silk suspender nightgown, sitting on the big bed and talking on the phone.
The beauty that she had built up with money over the years made her still charming even in her fifties. The bathroom door opened and a man came out with white steam. He had a strong body and only a towel around his waist.
When his eyes fell on the pair of slender legs extending from the skirt of the person on the bed, his eyes suddenly darkened and he couldn't wait to get close to them.
Bai Yujin pushed the person away slightly, gave him a warning look, and continued on the other end of the phone, "My two good sons didn't let me down. Not only did they bankrupt the Lu Corporation, they also sent Lu Zhong to prison."
"What should we do next? Of course... we should eliminate the Meng family."
