"Third Young Master, why don't you go in?"
Outside the door, the maid Zhang Ma suddenly shouted something, frightening the man so much that he immediately turned around and shouted in panic, "Shh! Can you please keep your voice down? You're so loud, did you get bit by a firecracker?"
Aunt Zhang didn't expect that her shouting would actually anger the Third Young Master, and she couldn't help but shrink her neck.
"Master San, everyone is waiting for you in the hall. Please go in quickly."
Lu Mingxuan glanced at her impatiently and said, "I know, stop nagging."
After saying that, he turned and walked into the Lu family mansion. Behind him, Aunt Zhang couldn't help but shook her head.
When Lu Mingxuan walked out the door, he took a quick look inside and it seemed that everyone who should have arrived had arrived.
However, it seems that there is someone who shouldn’t be here?
Old Master Lu sat upright on the armchair, looking dignified without even getting angry, and he looked like a living devil.
Lu Jinzhong sat next to him, also with a serious expression.
His mother was also sitting on the side, winking at him, telling him to go in quickly.
Lu Zhiheng glanced at him nonchalantly, with a look of sarcasm on his face. He also picked up the teacup and took a sip elegantly, showing that he was in a very good mood at the moment.
Lu Mingxuan was so angry that his teeth were itching.
He now began to doubt whether Lu Zhiheng was also involved in this matter. Otherwise, how could Gu Xiaoqiao cause such a big stir by himself?
It’s not like there haven’t been any scandals exposed in the past, but as long as the Lu family takes action, they can basically be settled quickly with just a word of warning.
So he never took these things seriously over the years, and his father also knew about his bad deeds, and he would not say anything as long as it was not too excessive.
"What are you still standing there for? Get in here right now!"
When Mr. Lu saw Lu Mingxuan standing at the door hesitating for a long time, he became increasingly angry and slammed the table and shouted.
Lu Jinzhong and Yang Xuewei also looked at Lu Mingxuan.
Lu Mingxuan came to his senses and then took a difficult step and walked in.
As soon as he walked into the hall, a sharp gaze was cast at him. Lu Mingxuan shuddered all over and felt a chill on his back.
"Grandpa, I... I'm back..."
His tone was trembling.
Although Lu Mingxuan usually acts as arrogant as a big boss outside, as soon as he returns to the old house, his courage will instantly shrink into his shell, for fear of being scolded by Mr. Lu.
Mr. Lu sneered, "You still remember to come back?"
Lu Mingxuan lowered his eyes guiltily, not daring to meet the old man's gaze.
"Last night I..."
The words of explanation were about to come out of his mouth, but were interrupted by Mr. Lu's cold snort.
"Is it good to stay in the land of gentleness?"
Lu Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, then he understood what the old man was referring to.
He wanted to argue, "No, Grandpa, I really was drunk last night, I..."
Mr. Lu interrupted him again, "Are you trying to say that you know nothing? Are you being set up?"
As soon as the other party finished speaking, Lu Mingxuan felt a strong pressure coming towards him.
He swallowed hard, squirming uncomfortably. "That's true."
"good."
Hearing the other party's answer, Mr. Lu laughed in anger, "Okay, okay."
After saying "OK" three times in a row, he suddenly put away the smile on his face and smashed the teacup beside him at Lu Mingxuan's head.
There was a loud bang.
Lu Mingxuan's forehead suddenly started bleeding, and the bright red blood slowly dripped along his eyebrows, making him look funny and embarrassed.
At the same time, Yang Xuewei was also frightened and her eyes widened in disbelief.
"Dad, you, you are..."
"Shut up."
Mr. Lu glared at her and then turned his gaze to Lu Mingxuan. "You said you were being plotted against?"
Lu Mingxuan covered his wound and whispered, "I, I was indeed tricked. I got drunk and fell into the trap..."
"That just shows you're stupid!"
Mr. Lu was very disappointed with the man. "All day long, you're just thinking about the little piece of meat in your crotch. You didn't even notice when someone tricked you. It's really a waste of the Lu family's hard work in cultivating you."
"Yes, yes."
Lu Mingxuan responded in a low voice, not daring to look up to see other people's eyes.
Yang Xuewei also looked at her son with heartache, trying to persuade the old man to calm down.
"dad..."
"Telling you to shut up and not hear?"
Mr. Lu glared at her again, "Be mindful of your own status. Don't interfere with what you should, and don't interfere with what you shouldn't."
Yang Xuewei tightened the handkerchief in her hand and looked a little embarrassed.
Forget it, she endured it!
After taking a deep breath, she gently kicked Lu Jinzhong's calf, signaling him to beg for mercy, otherwise Lu Mingxuan would be in trouble today.
Lu Jinzhong glanced at her, then lowered his eyes and pretended not to see it.
Yang Xuewei was furious and pinched him hard again.
Lu Jinzhong felt pain and could only look at Old Man Lu helplessly.
"Dad...it's already happened. I think Mingxuan knows he's in the wrong. The most urgent thing is to find a way to calm this public opinion storm, otherwise we'll be in a passive position on Monday..."
After saying that, he glared at Lu Mingxuan again, "How dare you stand there? Why don't you kneel down and reflect on yourself!" This time, Lu Mingxuan didn't dare to hesitate any longer and immediately knelt down obediently.
Mr. Lu, however, was not convinced. "Since he caused this trouble himself, let him clean up this mess himself. Since he is the future heir of the Lu Group, he must learn to be responsible for his own actions!"
"Also, today, while everyone is here, I'll say something straight. If Mingxuan can't handle this matter well, don't let him learn about the core business of the Lu Group in the future. Just hand it over directly to Zhiheng."
"What?"
As soon as Mr. Lu finished speaking, Lu Jinzhong and the others changed color and looked at Lu Zhiheng in unison.
Mr. Lu said with a cold expression, "Is there anything wrong with what I said? Zhiheng is also my grandson, he is qualified to take the position."
Yang Xuewei's face turned even worse, "Dad! Zhiheng... isn't he feeling well? Why are you..."
"Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Don't you, as a mother, know what kind of person your son is?"
Mr. Lu said unhappily, "Don't say I didn't give him a chance. If you want to take over the Lu Group, you must have the ability to do it."
How can a person who only knows how to eat, drink and enjoy himself all day be qualified to take over the hard work of several generations?
Lu Zhiheng, who was standing aside, remained silent the entire time, just watching the show, waving his phone around in boredom.
But at this moment, a message suddenly popped up on his WeChat interface.
