Chapter 9 Settlement Fee



Seeing her picking up her things and leaving, Lu Hongjun walked over and stood at the door, saying angrily, "Lu Jiaxin, stop making trouble."

Lu Jiaguang couldn't bear it anymore and stopped keeping silent: "Uncle, you loved Xinxin the most. I remember that you took care of her for a whole day and night when she had a fever. This time, Xinxin was almost killed by human traffickers and suffered so much in the ancient capital. You didn't feel sorry for her and even said she was making trouble. Uncle, how could you become so cruel?"

Lu Hongjun was so blocked that he was speechless.

Lu Jiajie also supported Lu Jiaxin to move out, but he didn't agree to leave now: "Xinxin, we have to find a good house first. If you leave in a hurry now, where will you stay at night?"

"Don't worry, I'll go ask around and find you a house tomorrow."

He has many friends, so it is not a problem for him to find a house to rent within a day.

Lu Jiaguang said with a straight face: "Why rent a house? Come live with me."

Seeing that both nephews supported his daughter to move out, Lu Hongjun was furious: "Jiaguang, Jiajie, what are you doing? I'm not dead yet, it's not your turn to make decisions about family affairs."

Lu Jiajie said bluntly: "Uncle San, before Aunt San died, she held my and my brother's hands and begged us to take good care of Xinxin. My brother and I must do what we promised."

Ding Jing secretly hated it. That bitch had been dead for so long but her ghost was still lingering around.

Although Lu Jiaguang was also dissatisfied, he spoke more tactfully, unlike Lu Jiajie who was so direct: "Uncle San, under the current circumstances, Jiaxin is not suitable to live under the same roof with them. If you can't bear to leave them mother and daughter, let Jiaxin move in with me."

Lu Hongjun said bluntly: "Your house is so small that it's not big enough for the whole family. Where will she sleep with Xue Mao? Also, she has to repeat her senior year, and there are no good high schools in your area."

Lu Jiaguang did not give in. He said with a serious face: "Let Jiaxin live with me first, and rent a house near the school after the procedures for repeating the year are completed. Xue Mao will live with her, so there is no need to worry about safety."

Anyway, he didn't dare to let his sister live with this vicious mother and daughter again. He was lucky to escape the calculations of this vicious woman this time, but he might not be so lucky next time.

It is impossible for Lu Jiaxin to live in Lu Jiaguang's house. It is too unfree: "Brother, there is no need to rent a house. I have a house to live in."

Lu Jiajie spoke faster than he thought: "You just came back, how come you have already rented a house?"

If that was the case, then this girl had planned to move out from the beginning. But it was understandable that he would have to move out too.

Lu Jiaxin lowered her head and said, "After my mother fell ill, she had a nightmare. She dreamed that my father and stepmother kicked me out of the house and I was living on the streets. She was afraid that the nightmare would come true, so she asked someone to buy a small house for me..."

She knew that the house was bought by Lu's mother at the request of Xie's family. When Lu's mother was a child, she was abused by her stepmother and her health was seriously damaged. She almost died of heavy bleeding during childbirth. It took more than ten years for her health to recover. However, she did not expect that when she was eleven years old, she saved the only child of Xie's family who fell into the water in the twelfth lunar month. What was fatal was that she happened to have her period at that time. After saving the person, her health collapsed and she died after more than half a year.

After a pause, Lu Jiaxin continued, "I said at the time that my father loved me and would not let anyone bully me, but my mother said it was just in case. If I was really kicked out of the house, I would have a place to stay with this house. Before she died, she told me not to tell anyone about this, fearing that I would be murdered for money."

Lu Hongjun's face turned red when he thought of the promise he made to his ex-wife.

Lu Jiaguang and Lu Jiajie's eyes were red as they thought of the amiable Third Aunt. If Third Aunt was fine, my sister would definitely be admitted to a prestigious university, so now it's time to prepare for school.

Lu Jiaxin did not hide it and directly reported the address. The house was on Guangming Road, a very good location.

Ding Jing regretted it so much. Guangming Road is not far from Dashilan, and the houses there may not be affordable even if you have money. If she had known earlier, she would have definitely told her daughter to be nice to Lu Jiaxin and coaxed her into buying the house. With such a house, why would she worry about Siyi's life?

Lu Jiaguang didn't expect the house to be on Guangming Road: "The transportation there is very convenient, and it is also very convenient to go to your school. You don't have to rent a house."

Now that everything was out in the open, Lu Jiaxin didn't want to stay here any longer; "Brother, let's move now!"

She originally planned to take away only valuables and bedding, but her two cousins ​​supported her to move out, so she changed her mind: "Brother, the bed, table and chairs in the room were carefully selected by my mother, I want to move them all out."

Ding Jing knew she was scolding her, but the two Lu brothers kept silent. As a leader, Lu Jiaguang would have some concerns, but Lu Jiajie was a scoundrel.

Lu Jiaguang agreed immediately: "When your house is cleaned, I will arrange a car to deliver these things to you."

Although Lu Hongjun is the general manager of the department store, he is already 57 years old. There are reports that his superiors are planning to let him retire next year.

Once he retired and lost his power, he would be forgotten. However, Lu Jiaguang was in his prime, had someone to support him, and had a bright future. Lu Hongjun thought that he might still be relied on in his later years, so he relied on him a lot.

Lu Jiajie patted his chest and said, "Xinxin, when the time comes, he will find two friends to deliver these things to Guangming Road."

Lu Jiaxin originally thought that she would have to go through a lot of struggle before she could move out, but she didn't expect it to be so smooth. She was in a very good mood at the moment: "Big brother, fifth brother, come with me to look at the house later."

Lu Jiaguang nodded and said, "If the house is dilapidated and uninhabitable, you and Xue Mao can stay at my place first. If you are not used to it, stay at the guesthouse for two days."

Lu Jiaxin politely declined and said, "It's too far to live in your company's guesthouse. It's better to live in the guesthouse on Guangming Road. This way, it will be more convenient for Xue Mao and I to go over and clean up."

Lu Jiaguang thought this arrangement was acceptable.

Lu Jiaxin was not stupid enough to just move out like that. She looked at Lu Hongjun and said, "There's nothing in that house. If we move there, we'll have to buy all the pots, pans, furniture, and appliances. Dad, I don't even have money to eat now."

The original body had a comfortable life and was young, so she had no concept of money. But she knew very well that without money, she would be hard to get by.

Lu Hongjun understood what she meant and said to Ding Jing, "Go get one thousand yuan."

One thousand yuan, just to send away beggars! Before she could say anything, Lu Jiajie said, "Uncle San, one thousand yuan is not enough? A whole set of this better furniture would cost several hundred yuan."

When Lu Hongjun heard this, he thought so and said he would give two thousand.
