Upon hearing this, Lu Sinian couldn't help but frown, feeling that he had been a bit too arrogant and domineering.
This special assistant was from Huo Rong's side, and his mother had always been spoiled and arrogant, which made her domineering and her subordinates behave the same way.
They even called in a lawyer.
Lu Sinian felt that this was making a mountain out of a molehill.
It was just a fight—although Lu Sinian had always been calm and self-controlled since childhood, and given his noble status, he had never fought with anyone before, or rather, no one dared to lay a hand on him, the heir of the Lu family. Today was the first time.
Although he was embarrassed, and although he had indeed been so angry at Qin Ge's two contrasting faces—one of 'provocative arrogance' and the other of 'pure innocence'—that he wanted nothing more than to raise his fist and beat Qin Ge up again, Lu Sinian also felt...
It was exhilarating and incredibly satisfying.
He never intended to use his power to intimidate others. If the school hadn't insisted that his parents come in, Lu Sinian would never have let his family know.
He had specifically told Li Qian on the phone not to make a scene and alarm his mother...
As a result, they even called in a lawyer.
Lu Sinian frowned, and although he disagreed, he did not stop his assistant Li Qian's aggressive attack.
She also harbored a slight intention to let Qin Ge know how powerful she was.
Make him...bow down.
If Qin Ge knew what Lu Sinian was thinking, she would definitely laugh sarcastically and then tell him—
You're dreaming!
He was all alone, and the only family he could be considered related to by blood was the Jiang family. They sued him until he was bankrupt.
Okay, then sue!
Let the weather grow cold and the river break.
He doesn't care anyway.
Qin Ge leaned lazily against the snow-white wall, raised one hand, and said calmly, "I'm the one who hit your young master Lu."
Whether it was Lu Sinian's imagination or not, he always felt that the words "Young Master Lu" spoken by the boy carried a hint of sarcasm.
The well-dressed lawyer adjusted his glasses and began speaking in a very professional manner:
"Young man, you didn't just hit an ordinary person, but the heir of the Lu family. If his brain had been accidentally injured during the fight, it would have been an immeasurable and irreparable loss for the Lu family. Therefore, we will request professionals to assess the young master's injuries, and based on the assessment report, the Lu Group will formally file a lawsuit against you..."
“You are over 18 years old, a fully capable adult with the capacity for civil conduct and independent thinking. Therefore, you should bear criminal responsibility for your actions and pay corresponding compensation.”
Wow.
They start by quoting long legal articles and using all sorts of technical terms, which sounds quite impressive.
If it were an ordinary student, they would probably have been so frightened that their legs would have gone weak, or even cried and begged for mercy by now. However, Qin Ge showed no fear at all. Instead, he stroked his chin, looked at Lu Sinian with a thoughtful expression, and said, "So you're that easy to mess up."
"..."
Lu Sinian felt mocked by Qin Ge. The way Qin Ge looked at him was as if he were an idiot, and Lu Sinian's face darkened instantly.
He hadn't really intended to pursue the matter; he just wanted to see the aloof and arrogant young man bow his head and beg for mercy.
Easily provoked by Qin Ge's words, Lu Sinian sneered, "You're truly courting death! Don't you know what the consequences will be for offending the Lu family?!"
"Tell me what happened to you."
"Tell me what happened to you."
The same words rang out simultaneously, word for word.
The sentence, spoken by Qin Ge, carried a hint of youthful arrogance and sneer.
The other sentence came from the mouth of a man in a dark suit, sitting in a wheelchair, who was pushed in by Shen Chi. He had a noble and indifferent demeanor and a strikingly handsome appearance. His tone was indeed nonchalant.
Has someone arrived? It was Huo Beiyuan.
He only called Shen Chi to ask for help, to act as a parent in this emergency, and suddenly Huo Beiyuan showed up...
The young man, who had been leaning lazily against the snow-white wall, now had a wrinkled white shirt with a bright footprint on it, but still had a delicate and handsome face. However, his delicate and handsome face now had a hint of arrogance and pride. When he saw the person who came, he unconsciously straightened up.
Before Qin Ge could speak, he heard Lu Sinian beside him greet him respectfully, his voice tinged with surprise, "...Uncle, what brings you here?"
Yes.
In the original storyline, the villainous boss is the protagonist's uncle, and the two are related.
Huo Beiyuan and Lu Sinian's mother, Huo Rong, are half-siblings. Huo Rong, as the eldest daughter of the underworld boss Huo Laoye, married into the prominent Lu family and gave birth to her son Lu Sinian, thus securing her position.
In contrast, the Huo family, who laundered their way out of the underworld—
Because of his philandering and promiscuity in his youth, Mr. Huo fathered nine sons and nine daughters. The bloody power struggles among his siblings were no less intense than the famous struggle for succession among Emperor Yongzheng's nine sons.
In the end, it was Huo Beiyuan, the youngest son, who rose to power by stepping over the corpses and blood of his many brothers and sisters, forcing Old Master Huo to abdicate.
In this struggle for power, most of Old Master Huo's children either died or disappeared, leaving very few. Those who remained obediently respected Huo Beiyuan, but were stripped of their rights and banished to the margins of power. They could only ever be idle and lazy people who lived off Huo's dividends, never again harboring any hope of getting involved with the Huo family.
However, Huo Rong, the eldest daughter of Old Master Huo, was a pawn in the marriage alliance. She married into the Lu family early on, gave birth to the Lu family's eldest son, and became the bond that maintained the relationship between the Lu and Huo families. Therefore, Huo Rong was not only unaffected by this bloody storm, but also maintained a good relationship with Huo Beiyuan, the current head of the Huo family.
—At least that's how it appears on the surface.
Thanks to Huo Rong's connections, although Lu Sinian was not particularly close to Huo Beiyuan, he still showed the utmost respect for his elders.
For example, right now.
Lu Sinian addressed Huo Beiyuan as his uncle with great respect.
Until later...
Lu Sinian put righteousness before family.
After Huo Beiyuan's death, the Huo family had no one left to rely on. Lu Sinian, as a grandson, took over all of the Huo family's power and became a figure greatly respected by both the legitimate and criminal worlds.
Along with Jiang Xibai, who married Lu Sinian, his net worth also soared, and he became increasingly glamorous and proud.
Qin Ge touched her cheek with the tip of her tongue.
In the end, Huo Beiyuan's efforts benefited others.
Although, in reality, Huo Beiyuan didn't have much to do with him.
But, think about it...
This is really annoying!
