You're robbing me!
Lu Han's heart sank, and she clenched her fist and pounded on the door.
This woman is even more ruthless than Fan Tong!
"Han'er?"
Qin Fengying's panicked voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.
"Mom, did you fall down or did Han'er fall down?"
Lu Baozhi, with her hair disheveled, also rushed out of the room.
The corridor was filled with the sound of hurried footsteps. Lu Han quickly hung up the phone and opened the door.
His face showed an expression of being forced into a corner...
"Mom, eldest sister, it's...it's Lin Xiaoya urging me to pay back the money!"
He stammered through his sentence, then lowered his head and remained silent.
Lu Baozhi frowned. "What money?"
Qin Fengying waved her hand impatiently, telling her to go back to her room.
"It's a long story, I'll tell you another time. Look at you, dressed like that, is it appropriate for your younger brother to see you like this?"
She's been living in a daze these past few days.
Hearing Lu Han mention Lin Xiaoya reminded him of the money he had been wanting to repay, which he still hadn't paid back.
She originally planned to settle the debt in front of Lin Yuan.
But Lin Yuan and the real person involved, Lin Mengmeng, went abroad and stood her up. This matter was like a thorn in her side, and she felt uncomfortable whenever she thought about it.
Lu Baozhi felt powerless to help.
Seeing the mother and son acting mysteriously, I decided not to interfere anymore.
"Han'er, Mom is telling you, this money cannot be given to Lin Xiaoya, do you understand?"
Qin Fengying closed the door and pulled Lu Han to sit down.
Seeing her son frowning in confusion, she sighed, "That old hag Lin Yuan is deliberately using this to slander our Lu family. If we don't repay the money openly and honestly, I won't swallow this insult!"
"Besides, you took this money from Lin Mengmeng, so what's the point of giving it back to Lin Xiaoya..."
She didn't care about a million or so.
This matter has been bothering her for several days.
She didn't want to slink away and let things go.
Lu Han got angry as soon as she heard that.
His own mother, that old gambler, was being beaten and screaming. If he didn't give her the money in time, and if word got back to Fan Tong, would he let it go?
"Mom, that's true, but we can't afford not to get involved in the Lin family's scheme!"
"How about this, you give me half first, and I'll give it back to Lin Xiaoya so she can issue a receipt, or I can film a video on the spot, and you can return the other half when Mrs. Lin comes back?"
This is a stopgap measure.
Looking at her son's forehead covered in sweat, Qin Fengying felt a pang of pity. After a moment's thought, she nodded.
"Alright, then Mom will transfer it directly to Lin Xiaoya..."
"don't want!"
Lu Han blurted out, "Mom, this is between her and me. How can I let you put up with her again! Just give it to me, I'll give it to her directly."
There's no time to make money now, so this is the only way to squeeze money out of Qin Fengying's pocket.
Lin Xiaoya is easy to fool. Just give her some money, have her write a receipt, and then change the amount yourself. Qin Fengying won't suspect anything.
Just like that, three minutes later, a small leather suitcase containing 1.5 million yuan in cash was placed in front of him.
"Mom knows you want to achieve something like your brother... No matter what your dad and your second sister plan to do tomorrow, Mom will go to Fengcheng with you."
"Firstly, it's more dignified for you to return the money to Lin Xiaoya in front of Lin Hongtao. Secondly, Mom will take you to Fengcheng to relax..."
Qin Fengying had long wanted to find an opportunity to make amends to her son.
This arrangement is a win-win situation.
But Lu Han didn't want to be clung to like that.
He leaned on her shoulder and said softly, "Mom, you worry so much about my brother, you haven't even had time to go to the beauty salon lately, and the wrinkles around your eyes have gotten deeper..."
Qin Fengying frantically looked for a mirror. "Is...is that so?"
Lu Han chuckled to herself, "That's right, if you appeared in front of Lin Xiaoya like that, who knows what hurtful things she might say with her sharp tongue!"
“My brother has already made his own way in the world, so I should take him as my role model. Otherwise, Dad will lose faith in me sooner or later, right, Mom?”
He could manipulate Qin Fengying with ease.
With just a few words, Qin Fengying felt pity and guilt towards him.
"I'm so glad you think that way. I'll arrange a car to take you there tomorrow!"
...
Fengcheng has been bustling with activity these past few days. Every hotel of any caliber is fully booked, and luxury cars with out-of-town license plates are a common sight on the streets.
Even ordinary people who don't care about business news have clearly felt it.
Huo Xiao waved his men away and wheeled himself to Du Guanglong, tears glistening in his cloudy eyes.
"Long'er, I knew you were an upright person!"
Du Guanglong squatted down and grasped the hand that Huo had extended. "President Huo's evidence convinces me, and I don't believe that it was a coincidence."
He wanted to heed Lu Gengsheng's teachings and stop being blinded by hatred, but now it seems that's probably impossible.
The tree may wish to remain still, but the wind will not cease; once Huo Xiao steps forward, it will be difficult for him to protect himself.
If he doesn't avenge the Huo family's past wrongs, he will carry that heavy burden for the rest of his life.
"I'm relieved that you think that way... By the way, I heard that your sworn brother has also come to Fengcheng?"
Huo Xiao changed the subject abruptly, and Du Guanglong didn't react for a moment, subconsciously nodding in agreement.
But then he realized something was wrong, and his eyes darkened as he said, "He hasn't even graduated from high school yet. For him to attract President Huo's attention is an overestimation of his abilities."
Huo Xiao pointed to the bar, indicating that he should go over and have a couple of drinks.
"Don't try to fool me here."
"This kid has Lu Zhengming's blood flowing through his veins, yet he's on friendly terms with the Gu family and has become Fan Shenglun's godson. It's not that I'm praising him, but we really can't ignore him!"
