The two arrived at a high-end restaurant, but by sheer coincidence, they ran into a woman.
Bai Lixue, the daughter of the president of the Bai Group, is the fiancée personally chosen by Old Master Lu for Lu Laowu.
I saw the two of them sticking together intimately.
Bai Lixue tried her best to hide the jealousy in her eyes and generously invited them to dine together.
Lu Laowu didn't even bother to pretend, his face was unapproachable, and his attitude towards his fiancée was quite indifferent.
"Miss Bai, I'm afraid it's inconvenient, my niece is a bit shy."
Without waiting for everyone's reaction, he forcefully led Lin Xiaoyuan away.
Imagine how interesting it must have been for Miss Bai to humiliate her fiancé in front of everyone.
Miss Bai struggled to control her contorted expression and quickly left the scene.
Inside the private room, Lin Xiaoyuan couldn't help but ask.
"Fifth Uncle, aren't you going too far? Miss Bai is still your fiancée no matter what."
Then she successfully received a glare from her fifth uncle, a very perceptive display of shared hatred:
"Grandpa, really! Why did he have to arrange this marriage? What era are we living in? Parents still arranging marriages? With the Lu family's strength, do we need a business marriage?... Whatever choice Fifth Uncle makes, it's the right one. I will always support Fifth Uncle..."
Seeing that her fifth uncle's expression had improved, Lin Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief and mentally gave a thumbs-up, successfully smoothing things over.
"Cough cough!..."
It turns out that eating while flattering someone can easily lead to choking.
Lin Xiaoyuan choked and her face turned red. Lu Laowu then launched into another round of concerned scolding.
Lin Xiaoyuan felt she was having a run of bad luck today. In just half a day, she tripped over flat ground twice and even choked while eating.
I shouldn't have gone out today.
Fortunately, I had my fifth uncle, who is a lucky star, with me. The crises were resolved in a timely manner, and we escaped unharmed.
...
After leaving the hospital, Yu Shuang got a computer and returned to her rented apartment to start making money and building her career.
The original owner's previous three jobs were tiring and didn't pay much, a complete waste of time.
With her involved, the current predicament of having no money can be resolved in no time.
I also looked up the Lu family, a towering and unyielding family that has stood for a century and is considered one of the most prestigious in China.
It has to be said that the Lu family's luck is indeed very strong.
The Lu family's development extends beyond just Old Master Lu's lineage; there are several other branches, and their descendants are involved in business, politics, and the military.
This has created a perfect closed loop of mutual help and support.
The whole family is very united.
They can whitewash any dirty or bad deeds and make the situation seem reasonable and legal.
It's not easy to bring down either side.
This has led to some members of their family acting without any scruples.
Like the aristocracy of the old society, they were naturally superior to others.
They look down on everyone outside the Lu family, regardless of their status.
If you mess with me, I'll ruin your family. If I can't stand you, I'll ruin your family too.
Just like the original owner.
To avenge Li Xiaoyuan, Lu Lao Er destroyed the Lin family business, causing the original owner's family to be ruined and killed.
The Lu family's lackeys naturally wanted to perform well and beat the dog when it was down.
They hired several drunkards to take things to extremes, plunging the original owner into an abyss of no return.
The original owner was driven to the brink of despair, threw sulfuric acid, was arrested, and sentenced to three years, then another three years.
A long and uncertain future, he died with resentment...
Their place of origin was in Cangshan, where there is said to be a Lu family garden, and there is a piece of land there that is their ancestral hall, which is not open to anyone who is not a core member of the Lu family.
With prosperity in people, wealth, and luck, the fortune is simply soaring to the heavens.
The prosperity is unusual.
Yu Shuang decided to trace back to her roots and make a trip to Cangshan Mountain to explore the Lu family ancestral hall.
Ha, you've messed with me, and that's the end for the Lu family.
...
But for now, making some money is the priority.
Yu Shuang found a special order on the dark web.
Exorcising evil spirits?
The patient's condition was that the hospital could not find any symptoms, but he kept having nightmares, was mentally tormented, and his physical health was deteriorating.
It also brought bad luck to the whole family, causing everything to go wrong.
Seeing the eight-figure reward, Yu Shuang decided to accept the offer.
However, you must remain anonymous.
She quickly got in touch with the client, who turned out to be the Bai family, one of the top families in the city.
Is the eldest daughter of the Bai family the one who was betrothed to Lu Laowu?
This is interesting...
Yu Shuang disguised herself and arrived at the designated location.
The person who met with her was Bai Lixue, the eldest daughter of the Bai family.
The original owner had met him once before at a high-society banquet, but he wasn't even qualified to say a word to him.
Those upper-class young masters and ladies who ostracized the original owner could only fawn over her.
But even such a family is no match for the Lu family.
Bai Lixue was already in a bad mood because of her fiancé.
Being sent by my family to pick up some charlatan only made me more annoyed.
My parents were desperate and tried anything; it's the 21st century, yet they still believe in superstitions and supernatural phenomena.
She preferred to believe that her brother had a mental illness rather than believe in any supernatural possession.
Two charlatans had previously come to her door accepting her orders, but she ruthlessly exposed them and gave them a good beating.
My parents still haven't given up and are planning to try one last time.
Fine, let them give up one last time and send the older brother to a mental hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
Let's see how she exposes that charlatan who dared to take the job.
Suddenly, a hand landed on her shoulder, and Bai Lixue's heart skipped a beat.
"Ah! Who?"
A figure dressed in a loose black robe and hat, and wearing a mask, suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
The voice was also somewhat neither male nor female, making it impossible to tell whether it was a male or female voice.
