Chapter 149 The mother comes knocking to demand an explanation



Lu Yi scratched his messy hair. "I have nothing to say to you!"

After saying this coldly, he was about to close the door.

Qin Fengying panicked when she saw this.

He grabbed the doorknob and shoved half his body in to block it.

"Yi'er, did you know that your eldest sister lost her job?"

Lu Yi squinted at her.

Qin Fengying took a deep breath. "It seems you knew."

"Your eldest sister has worked diligently for so many years, receiving countless honors. Many patients have come to thank her after recovering, but you..."

"You've gone too far, not even sparing your own sister for someone who's destined to die!"

Thinking about all that the Lu family had gone through recently, Qin Fengying was furious.

His brows were furrowed, his eyes were wide open, his fingers on the handle were white from the force, and his tone was no longer as gentle as before.

"A mortal?"

Lu Yi's pupils contracted sharply, and his eyes gradually turned fierce.

Feeling as if the air around her had solidified, Qin Fengying realized she had spoken too quickly, turned her head away, and rubbed her nose.

"Did I say something wrong? Old Lu was already very ill!"

In Qin Fengying's view, the reason why Lu Yi is now at odds with the Lu family is largely due to Lu Gensheng.

His son and third daughter kindly brought him soup, but he choked on it, causing a huge mess out of nothing. That was fine.

His hospital visit also ruined his eldest daughter's job.

What's even more infuriating is that because of his death, Lu Yi regarded the entire Lu family as his enemy.

Qin Fengying thought about it all night, regretting that she hadn't taken advantage of Lu Gengsheng's life to complete all of Lu Yi's formalities.

Now everyone on Lu Yi's adoptive parents' side is gone...

Going through that procedure again would be pointless.

But Lu Yi's heart turned cold after Lu Gensheng's death.

As long as Lu Yi doesn't return to the Lu family, it will be difficult for her to get over this hurdle in her heart.

"Madam Lu, you allowed your children to kill my uncle. Now that his body is barely cold, you come to his door and berate him for deserving it. Is this what you call upbringing in the Lu family?"

Lu Yi's face flushed red with uncontrollable rage.

He was like a furious yet restrained lion, grinning dryly with his neat teeth showing.

Qin Fengying was horrified.

Without realizing it, I retreated to the outside of the door.

"What, what did you say!"

"What did I say? Madam Lu, I said that the good son you raised has committed murder, arson, extortion, and other heinous crimes!"

"Lu Yi, you are also my adopted son!"

“Mrs. Lu, please get this straight. My parents’ portraits are right there in there. You say I’m your son, but do you know how tall or heavy I am? Do you know what I like to eat…”

Previously, Qin Fengying always played the role of a loving mother in front of Lu Yi.

But I'm not pretending today.

Lu Yi had no feelings for her to begin with. What reason or logic could there be in arguing with a woman who treated a good-for-nothing like a treasure?

What she enjoyed was only the emotional value provided by her adopted son.

What she couldn't bear to part with was all the sacrifices and contributions she had made for her adopted son over the years.

What she cared about was nothing more than the Lu family's reputation, dignity, and honor.

But she herself was completely unaware of all of this.

"I...I wanted to understand you, but you ran away from home in a fit of anger. Did you ever give me a chance?"

Qin Fengying could not refute him.

“I gave it to you before, but you didn’t care. Now I don’t care about you anymore…”

Lu Yi found the woman in front of him utterly ridiculous.

They brought me home with tears streaming down their faces, but fearing my adopted son would be mistreated, they treated me like an abandoned object, ignoring me completely.

Now that there's unrest at home, they're blaming him instead.

How is this any different from what Lu Baozhi and the others did?

Like mother, like daughter!

Before Qin Fengying could say anything more, Lu Yi punched the door.

"Get out! I don't want to see you at all!"

Qin Fengying stood there, tears welling up in her eyes silently.

Her lips trembled as she said, "Yi'er, Mom came today not to argue with you, it's just..."

"I told you to get lost!"

Lu Yi squeezed out a few words, one by one, from between his teeth.

...

"mom!"

Lu Han, who had followed earlier, was listening from downstairs.

Seizing the opportunity, he hurried upstairs in a few quick steps.

"Mom, don't be afraid, I'm here!"

He patted Qin Fengying's back gently, offering a few words of comfort, then glared at Lu Yi and snorted.

"Brother, you've gone too far! Aren't you afraid Dad will come back and find out what you've done?"

Hearing that Qin Fengying and Lu Yi had fallen out, Lu Han was absolutely certain that he could completely destroy Lu Yi's position in Lu Zhengming and Qin Fengying's hearts.

He consulted outside lawyers, but not entirely for Fan Tong's sake.

Furthermore, he wanted to find out whether Lu Yi, the biological son who had left the Lu family, still had any chance of competing with him for the Lu family's assets.

The lawyer told him very clearly.

Based on what he has said so far, he is more qualified than Lu Yi to inherit the Lu family's estate.

If the Lu couple did not leave a separate will before their deaths, leaving Lu Yi a certain share of the inheritance...

From a legal perspective, Lu Yi gets nothing.

Therefore, Lu Han was perfectly clear-headed.

Instead of trying to please those brainless older sisters, it's better to focus on winning over your adoptive parents.

Today's result is exactly what he wanted to see.

"Young Master Lu, tell me, what have I done?"

Lu Yi had long anticipated that Qin Fengying couldn't possibly be without a tail behind her.

Seeing him suddenly appear to "support" Qin Fengying was not surprising at all.
