Lin Xiaoxiao didn't care about any of that.
Especially after learning what the Lu family had done to her parents in the past, her impression of the Lu family plummeted. What's wrong with cursing them a bit? She even wanted to beat them up.
Lu Hua's face was gloomy. What he hated most was being told that he was incompetent and relied entirely on the old man.
He looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with a sinister gaze, "You've offended the Lu family, how much guts do you have?"
“Dad…” Lu Yunzhang said.
He felt that Lin Xiao's words were not wrong, and that it was his mother who first spoke up and belittled people.
No wonder others retaliated.
"Little sister, you're being really rude." Lin Wanwan said with dissatisfaction, but her eyes were practically brimming with schadenfreude.
Yes, that's it. We've offended the entire Lu family.
She wanted to see what Lin Xiaoxiao was capable of, to see if she could escape unscathed after offending the Lu family.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't even glance at her, and answered Lu Hua's question directly, "You can't be naive enough to flirt with someone first, right? Your Lu family is putting pressure on Jiangcheng government, trying to pin the label of 'pro-democracy' offspring on me, so don't blame me for not giving you face."
Her words were like a hand grenade thrown into calm water, creating a huge uproar.
Qin Jinye stood up abruptly, his face turning cold. "Shouldn't the Lu family give us an explanation for this?"
"What pressure?" Lu Hua thought about it carefully, and he was sure he had never done such a thing.
Besides, he had no prior grudge against Lin Xiaoxiao, so why would he create trouble for himself?
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Lin Wanwan and said, "Just because you didn't do it doesn't mean some people didn't, right, Lin Wanwan?"
Everyone looked at Lin Wanwan.
"I...I didn't." Lin Wanwan's expression changed, but she quickly returned to normal, stubbornly denying it.
Lu Hua glanced at her a few times, then said to Lin Xiaoxiao, "You just open your mouth and say it was our Lu family who did it, do you have any evidence?"
Lu Xue'er also loathed Lin Xiaoxiao, saying, "You're nobody, why would my Lu family bother to deal with you?"
Only Lu Yunzhang turned to question Lin Wanwan, his voice cold and deep, "Can you guarantee it wasn't you?"
Seeing his doubt, Lin Wanwan bit her lip and said, "No."
"Alright." Lu Yunzhang nodded. "If you're lying, then we'll get a divorce."
He was truly fed up with this woman's wickedness.
"I..." Lin Wanwan was about to say no, but then she thought about it and realized that she was admitting it.
Anyway, Lin Xiaoxiao definitely has no evidence, so what is she afraid of?
So she said nothing, indirectly acknowledging his words.
Qin Jinye also asked Lin Xiaoxiao if she had any evidence, and Lin Xiaoxiao replied frankly, "Yes."
Lin Wanwan's heart skipped a beat.
Impossible, where did she get the evidence?
"Zhuang Ying, the son of the director of the Beijing Municipal Government, was entrusted by someone to travel a long distance to Jiangcheng. Why don't we ask him and find out who gave the order?"
According to Chu Wuyan, Zhuang Ying, though ruthless, is a pragmatic person.
Upon hearing that Lin Xiaoxiao was the goddaughter personally recognized by Grandpa Chu, they turned against him.
“He lives in the government compound. Should we invite him to come and see who the ghost is among the people here?” Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at Lin Wanwan and Qin Huaijun with amusement.
“I’ll go,” Lu Yunzhang volunteered.
"No." Lin Wanwan grabbed him, but Lu Yunzhang used a clever trick to push her away.
"Are you feeling guilty?" Lu Yunzhang narrowed his eyes, his gaze towards Lin Wanwan anything but pleasant.
Lin Wanwan took a step back. "I...I didn't."
Lu Yunzhang didn't want to say anything more to her and turned to leave.
"Alright." Lu Hua finally spoke up, stopping Lu Yunzhang. "It's no big deal. Why are you making such a big deal out of it? She's your wife. Even if you don't like her, she's carrying your child."
He deliberately emphasized the word "children".
Lu Yunzhang clenched his fists. "Dad, what do you mean by 'it's no big deal'? Do you still have the ability to distinguish right from wrong?"
Lu Hua said casually, "What's the big deal about women scheming against each other?"
"Clap clap clap".
Lin Xiaoxiao clapped her hands and laughed, "The Lu family's style is truly astounding."
"Alright, in-laws, we've eaten and discussed everything, so we should head out now. Let's get together again sometime." Lu Hua stood up, said this to Qin Jinye, and prepared to leave with his men.
He maintained a haughty demeanor, his expression unchanged, but his eyes had become much more indifferent.
Take care.
As Lu Xue'er passed by Lin Xiaoxiao, she snorted coldly.
Lin Wanwan touched her own belly, her gaze falling on Lin Xiaoxiao's protruding belly, a smile on her lips, "Little sister, let me teach you a piece of advice: marrying well is what truly matters."
"My child is destined to be of higher birth than your child."
"Besides, even if you know I'm the one who harmed you behind your back, so what? The Lu family will still protect me."
After saying that, he puffed out his belly and turned around triumphantly.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaoxiao grabbed her by the neck, and Lin Wanwan screamed in shock, "Ah!"
The sound made the people in front stop.
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and leaned close to her ear, whispering something in her ear. Lin Wanwan's expression changed drastically, and she looked at her with horror in her eyes.
"You're really an unkillable cockroach." Lin Xiaoxiao patted her face and exclaimed, "Tell me how many times you've fallen for my tricks."
"What do you want to do?" Li Yuan turned back, trying to pry Lin Xiaoxiao off and rescue Lin Wanwan from her grasp.
She didn't particularly like Lin Wanwan, but the child in her belly was very important.
That's her grandson.
Lin Xiaoxiao released Lin Wanwan and slapped her across the face. "You know what, your face is perfect for me to practice Iron Palm."
