Chapter 712: A Family
"Dad, Mom didn't mean anything else, it's just... it's just..."
Lu Yihong tried to find excuses for his mother, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't think of any reason that could convince others.
"There's no need to defend her." Mr. Lu gave Mrs. Lu a cold look, then directly ordered her to leave. "Go back! You don't need to stay here."
"Grandpa." Madam Lu exclaimed in surprise, obviously not expecting that Grandpa Lu would let her leave directly.
"If you continue to stay, I'm afraid I'll die young." Mr. Lu said bluntly, "Or do you really want to be a widow?"
For a moment, Madam Lu was unable to utter any rebuttal. Just now, she had spoken hastily, and had only intended to mock Lu Yichen. Who could have imagined that she would actually offend the old man?
"Dad, Mom is just too tired." Lu Yiming also spoke up, "She really didn't mean it. You know how good she has been to you over the years!"
"What? My words have no deterrent effect at all now, right?" Mr. Lu's cold tone made everyone present shudder. "Now, except Yichen, everyone else, get out."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed except Lu Yichen.
"Grandpa!" Madam Lu was also anxious at this time, "If you really don't want to see me, I can go out. But you have to let all the sons stay here!"
She can leave, but all her sons must stay. If only the old man and Lu Yichen are left here, who knows what kind of benefits Lu Yichen will get in the end!
No one knew what kind of trump card the old man had in his hand. Lu Yichen was already arrogant enough. If the old man Lu gave his power to Lu Yichen, wouldn't Lu Yichen have to step on her children for the rest of his life?
No, she would never allow such a thing to happen.
"I told you all to get out," said Mr. Lu in a dignified voice.
After he finished speaking, he looked around, his tone already filled with a hint of anger, "It seems that in your eyes, I no longer exist, right? Even my words are useless."
Mr. Lu has already said so much. If anyone continues to stay here, it will not only bring no benefit in the end, but will also make Mr. Lu have a very bad impression of him.
Soon, only Mr. Lu and Lu Yichen were left in the ward.
Mr. Lu was half leaning against the headboard at this time, looking at Lu Yichen who was still standing there, his face full of kindness. He said in a gentle voice, "Yichen, sit down first. It's tiring to stand like this!"
Lu Yichen didn't want to talk too much nonsense about such things, so he quickly sat down and looked at Mr. Lu expressionlessly without saying anything, as if he was waiting for Mr. Lu to speak first.
"Yichen, your mother didn't mean it just now." Old Master Lu looked at Lu Yichen and said earnestly, "She's just too worried about me. Don't take it personally."
If those people outside were here, they would definitely be shocked after hearing what Mr. Lu said. Because just now, Mr. Lu was still angry about what Mrs. Lu had said, but now he said that Mrs. Lu did not mean it.
After hearing what Mr. Lu said, Lu Yichen's expression didn't change at all. He just said calmly, "That's what you wanted to tell me, right? Then I understand."
"Is it still a problem? If not, I'll leave first."
He had only intended to take a look, and just now, he had already wanted to leave.
Lu Yichen's words made Old Man Lu's eyes darken for a moment, and there was a hint of sadness in his tone, "Yichen, you... don't blame your mother. She didn't mean it all these years. I know you may have resentment towards her in your heart, but she hasn't had an easy life either."
"Does this have anything to do with me?" Lu Yichen looked at Mr. Lu, his eyes filled with endless sarcasm. "Isn't it because of you that she has such a hard time?"
"Why are you saying this here now? Or, what do you want from me?"
Mr. Lu looked at Lu Yichen and forced a smile. "Yichen, what are you talking about? It's just that because of my illness, I have gained some insights."
"Yichen, I know that you and your other brothers have become somewhat distant. But fathers and sons fight together in battle, and brothers fight together against tigers. If your mother and I are gone in the future, the four of you who remain in this world will be the closest of siblings. Therefore, I hope that you brothers can help each other and that you will surely be able to carry forward the Lu family in the future."
This sudden fainting this time, although the doctor said that he was not seriously injured, it also sounded an alarm in his heart.
He is not young anymore. Although he is fine this time, who can guarantee it will be fine next time?
His sons had achieved considerable success in politics, the military, and business, but he saw clearly that none of them had yet reached the point where they could stand on their own.
The reason why the Lu family is so prosperous now is because of his existence. Once he falls, the Lu family will definitely weaken.
However, if Lu Yichen was willing to help a few brothers, then things would be completely different. Not to mention anything else, just what kind of power was behind Lu Yichen, he couldn't find out.
However, he knew that if Lu Yichen was willing to help support his other brothers, then even if he unfortunately passed away one day, his other sons would definitely be able to move on smoothly.
"Their affairs have nothing to do with me." Lu Yichen did not agree with Mr. Lu, but spoke directly, "Besides, I think they don't want to have anything to do with me!"
"How could that be?" Mr. Lu was a little anxious. "You are brothers! How could you not be related?"
"I don't have this obligation." Lu Yichen said slowly, "Besides, who said we are brothers? There is no blood relationship between us!"
After hearing what Lu Yichen said, Mr. Lu became a little anxious, "Yichen, what are you talking about! Did you hear some nonsense? We are a family!"
