"Dad, don't get so angry that you'll ruin your health. Calm down and talk to Qingquan properly," Lin Shufang said, stepping forward to persuade him, clearly worried about the old man's health.
"Why would I talk to him nicely? He's a self-deceiving idiot who still has the nerve to say he has good grades. He's completely disgraced me, Lu Guosheng!"
The old man slapped her again, his anger growing stronger.
Lu Qingquan's last place was actually within his expectations. After all, he had taken the exam so many times before, so it was normal for him to get last place again. The old man would only feel disappointed, not angry.
He was angry because Lu Qingquan had lied.
Getting the lowest score is a matter of ability, nothing shameful about it, but lying is a matter of character. The Lu family would rather raise an incompetent descendant than one with bad character.
He used to think Lu Qingquan was a bit slippery and not as composed as Lu Mo, but that his character was probably fine. But now...
The old man looked at Lu Qingquan with disappointment; he had misjudged him.
The second son and his daughter were both spoiled by Yue Hongxia.
No matter how outstanding a grandson with a wicked heart is, he won't even give him a second glance!
When the old man made his move, Ye Qingqing quietly moved to Tie Dan's side, reached out and gave Tie Dan a light high five, watching the show with a smug look on her face.
Lu Mo shook his head helplessly. Did these two have to be so obvious? Couldn't they be a little more discreet?
Lu Qingquan's face was swollen and he looked very disheveled. He didn't dare to move and lowered his head in fear, trying to defend himself, "Grandpa... I really made it to the second round. I'll call the army to ask you."
The old man looked at him suspiciously, not believing it at all. How could the last person be selected?
Are the instructors blinded by shit?
"Maybe the military is giving you a chance because of Lu Mo!" Ye Qingqing muttered softly.
The old man's heart skipped a beat. This might actually be true. Lu Mo was highly regarded by his superiors in the army and had made such a great contribution this time, even losing his legs in the process. It was very likely that the army would compensate Lu Qingquan.
But the Lu family does not need this kind of compensation.
The men of the Lu family can only climb the social ladder through their own abilities; what does it matter if they rely on the honors of others?
Moreover, if Lu Qingquan, who came in last place, makes it into the second round, it's unfair to the other eliminated people. Why should someone with a higher ranking be eliminated?
That doesn't make sense!
Lu Mo sighed helplessly, turned to Ye Qingqing and whispered a warning, "Say less!"
This girl is addicted to stirring up trouble; she really seems to thrive on chaos!
Ye Qingqing sniffed and snorted at him, "I'll tell you!"
She wasn't as magnanimous as Lu Mo; she was petty, vindictive, and couldn't stand seeing Lu Qingquan smug.
"It has nothing to do with Lu Mo. It's because the leaders saw that I usually perform well that they gave me this opportunity..." Lu Qingquan hurriedly explained. He would never admit that he had received preferential treatment from Lu Mo.
All the glory was earned by himself!
It has absolutely nothing to do with Lu Mo, that cripple!
"You're already last place, and you're still saying you performed well? Do you think I'm stupid? Being last place isn't unlucky, as long as you tell the truth, it's fine. But you don't utter a single truth; lies just spring out of your mouth!"
The old man looked disappointed and shook his head repeatedly, "Lu Qingquan, you have disappointed me greatly!"
"grandfather……"
Lu Qingquan's heart sank to the bottom, and he was extremely anxious.
How did it turn out like this?
It should have been a happy ending for everyone!
Lu Qingquan quickly realized the reason, and his eyes turned cold. It was all because Ye Qingqing was too talkative. He had already fooled his grandfather!
Damn it!
Lu Qingquan kept reassuring himself that it was alright, his grandfather was just having a temporary setback. Once he joined the special forces and earned merit, he didn't believe his grandfather would still be so stubborn!
