Bang.
Lu Yuanzhou slammed his fist on the table and stood up: "Lu Huaidong, haven't you caused enough trouble? Not only do you get angry as soon as you come back, but you even hit your mother!"
"Dad, Mom brought Jiajia chicken soup twice, once with water and once with saliva."
Zhang Juan was visibly panicked, but she still stubbornly insisted, "No, absolutely nothing like that."
"Should I call over the nurses and caregivers I saw so I can confront Mom?" Lu Huaidong frowned, his tone filled with undisguised disappointment.
Zhang Juan shrank her neck, lowered her head, and remained silent.
Seeing her like this, Lu Yuanzhou understood everything. He just wanted to slap her a few times. What kind of time is this, and she still can't tell the difference between the prince and the princess? Always causing trouble! Does she think this house isn't chaotic enough already?
“Huaidong, your mother was wrong about this. I’ll take her to apologize to Li Jia later.”
"No."
"What's the meaning?"
"Li Jia wants a divorce from me, and the divorce papers have already been submitted."
"What did you say?" Lu Yuanzhou's surprised voice echoed through the air.
"What? She got rid of my grandson and still dares to divorce me?" Zhang Juan was furious. "Divorce! Huai Dong will divorce her! I don't believe a used woman like her, divorced and slutty, can marry someone else—"
*Smack*
Lu Yuanzhou slapped Zhang Juan: "Shut the hell up!"
What time is it? You're just making things worse.
“Huaidong, let’s separate the family. You and Li Jia have gone out together.”
Lu Huaibei and Wang Xiu, who had been eavesdropping, finally spoke up: "Dad, now that we're dividing the family property, Huaibei and I are incompetent. Please provide us with a house and a larger share of the money. Otherwise, we won't be able to survive outside."
Lu Yuanzhou, who hadn't taken Zhang Juan's words to heart, looked at the couple who were getting in on the action, his eyes darkening.
“If you can’t survive, stay at home. If you insist on separating from the family, then you can go begging on the streets and I won’t even give you a second glance.”
Wang Xiu's fake smile froze. She nudged Lu Huaibei beside her, signaling him to speak.
Lu Huaibei, also intimidated by his father Lu Yuanzhou, shrank back and said, "Dad, Xiuxiu and I were just joking, it was just a casual remark."
Seeing Lu Huaibei's pathetic state, Wang Xiu gave him a hard stomp.
"Wife, why did you step on me? It hurts so much!" Lu Huaibei screamed.
"you!"
Wang Xiu left in anger, and Lu Huaibei, seeing this, quickly chased after her.
After the noisy couple left, Lu Yuanzhou looked away and repeated, "Huaidong, you and Li Jia should go out and live alone."
Lu Huaidong didn't respond. He stared at Zhang Juan intently and said, "Mom, swear you're not lying."
Lu Yuanzhou's eyes twitched, and he growled, "Lu Huaidong!"
Father and son stared at each other, neither willing to give in.
Lu Ya arrived at this time, and Lu Huainan opened the door for her.
As soon as she entered, she sensed that something was wrong with the living room.
"Brother, Huaidong, what are you two up to? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were about to fight!"
This silent contest between father and son came to an end with Lu Ya's words.
"Auntie, I have something to attend to, so I won't be able to entertain you any longer."
He turned to look at Lu Yuanzhou and Zhang Juan and said, "I'll move to the dormitory from now on."
After saying that, he ignored Lu Ya's shouts and attempts to stop him, and went into his room to pack his things.
After Lu Huaidong left, Lu Ya finally had a chance to sit down and ask, "Brother, what exactly happened? You made Huaidong so angry that he moved out? You know Huaidong is a filial son. He would never do something like leaving home in a huff if he wasn't really angry."
This wasn't exactly something to be proud of, so Lu Yuanzhou briefly explained and changed the subject.
But Lu Ya wouldn't let it go.
"Brother, to be fair, Li Jia did nothing wrong in this matter. It took her several years to conceive this precious child. She had no experience, and neither did my sister-in-law. If you ask me, dividing the family property is not unreasonable. You should have agreed to it back then. Even if my sister-in-law did not do it on purpose, she was the one who killed the child."
"And what about that sister-in-law? Is she even human? How dare she get angry? If she were my mother-in-law, I'd grab a knife and chop her up."
Lu Ya became more and more excited as she spoke, completely ignoring the fierce look in Zhang Juan's eyes and Lu Yuanzhou's increasingly embarrassed expression.
"Lu Ya!" Lu Yuanzhou shouted at the top of his lungs.
"No matter how bad your sister-in-law is, she's still your sister-in-law. I'll take care of her. You only need to say a few words."
What's the point of keeping saying it?
In particular, listening to those words, Lu Yuanzhou always felt that Lu Ya was also indirectly cursing him.
Seeing that Lu Yuanzhou was angry, Lu Ya pouted and stopped talking.
"Brother, I need to talk to you about something."
"Hmm." Lu Yuanzhou waited for what was to come.
“Brother, why don’t we go into the study to talk?” Lu Ya glanced at Zhang Juan, her eyes clearly saying, ‘I’m afraid my sister-in-law will ruin things.’
Lu Yuanzhou's face darkened again, but the thought that Zhang Juan was so stupid as to tamper with the chicken soup made him stand up, even though he was not happy about it.
Zhang Juan, who had just been comforted by Lu Yuanzhou's words of protection, saw this scene and her eyes were so sharp they almost pierced Lu Ya's back.
After a while, she secretly followed them.
