Lu Chengyang called Meng Jingdong and asked about Lu Tian's recent situation.
"Uncle, to be honest, she didn't pay any attention to me."
Lu Chengyang suddenly became uneasy: "She won't take her anger out on you, right? Tian Jing said she's still very calm, she just doesn't want to talk to anyone, but you guys..."
It doesn't matter whether she vents her anger on others or not. Meng Jingdong guessed that Lu Tian was angry and embarrassed because she was deceived. In view of her changeable personality recently, he really couldn't guess what Lu Tian would do. However, the two of them were already in a relationship and had already obtained a marriage certificate. It was reasonable for him to go to the Zou family to comfort Lu Tian.
"Then I'd better explain it to her." Lu Chengyang was very panicked. It would be bad if it caused problems in their relationship.
"Forget it. The more you explain, the more she will think we are colluding to deceive her. I'd better go to the Zou family and see what Lu Tian's condition is like first." Meng Jingdong was really unsure about Lu Tian's current personality.
"Also, Lu Tian may not recognize you in the short term." Meng Jingdong didn't have much contact with Lu Tian, but he could inexplicably estimate this result. Maybe when she was making a fuss at the engagement ceremony of the Yu and Han families, Lu Chengyang appeared and said he was her biological father, she would be happy to recognize this father. Now, even Tian Jing was not sure what she thought.
"I know, and I don't dare to expect her to forgive me immediately, but she already knows the truth. I can't say nothing for fear of her getting angry. If possible, I want to compensate her slowly." Lu Chengyang was speaking from the heart. He would never force Lu Tian to do anything. He just wanted her to see the Lu family's attitude. If Old Lady Lu knew that he had a daughter, he didn't know how she would react. He had to do something first, even though whatever he did might seem powerless. But he had already missed twenty years and couldn't make the same mistake again.
Meng Jingdong understood his feelings, but people are greedy. They start by wanting to talk, meet, and chat, and then they will long for the father and daughter to recognize each other and return to the Lu family. There are very few people who really do things behind the scenes without craving for rewards.
He came to Zou's house on the weekend. Zou Fan and Zou's mother were at home. When they heard him looking for Lu Tian, Zou's mother was surprised: "Lu Tian went out to play with her classmates, didn't you know?"
"I, I forgot to ask her first." Because of Zou's mother's scrutinizing gaze, and the situation of the two of them was not something that could be known to outsiders, Meng Jingdong would try to reduce Lu Tian's mistakes.
Zou's mother suddenly realized and said casually, "Then call Tiantian. This kid went out to play without even telling you."
Because the Meng family is powerful, Zou's mother unconsciously lowered her posture when facing Meng Jingdong. She also enthusiastically invited Meng Jingdong in to make a phone call, but entering the house would expose the fact that Lu Tian ignored him. He did not enter the Zou family and decided to go to Lu Tian's school to take a look.
He was momentarily confused as he stepped out of the elevator. What was his purpose? Was he trying to mediate, or was he curious about Lu Tian?
When Lu Tian entered the unit, she saw such an unusual scene. Meng Jingdong was standing there in a daze. She walked over and wanted to wave her hand to scare him, but before she raised her hand, he looked at her and she quickly withdrew her hand.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Looking for you, can we find a place to talk?"
Lu Tian thought for a moment and said, "There's a coffee shop nearby that serves pretty good desserts."
Meng Jingdong breathed a sigh of relief, and the two of them turned and walked out. Zou's mother came downstairs and heard their conversation, frowning deeply. What kind of conflict was going on between the two of them? She wanted to go over and ask clearly, but the pet dog she was holding refused to listen. She could only stare at their backs as they walked towards the garden.
The coffee shop was surprisingly quiet at ten o'clock in the morning on a weekday. The two ordered two cups of coffee and sat facing each other by the window. The late autumn sun was hot and dazzling. Lu Tian thought for a long time and did not apply sunscreen in front of Meng Jingdong.
"Actually, I came here to explain something to you about Lu Chengyang."
Lu Tian took a bite of tiramisu, the slightly bitter taste spreading on the tip of her tongue. She looked calm and said, "You talk, I'm listening."
"I'm sorry. When we did the bone marrow matching, I took it upon myself to lie and say I was doing it for a relative. I never told him his true identity, and I've been hiding this from you all along."
"It's nothing. Besides, I've already made a deal with you using it. We're even now." Lu Tian looked into his calm eyes with a smile on her lips. "Are you going to go back on your word?"
"No, since we have agreed, the agreement will be valid forever."
Lu Tian liked his frank attitude. Outside of the plot, Big Brother Meng was also a real person, the kind of polite gentleman she admired. She held her chin and said lazily: "Actually, this is the only thing you need to explain. Everything else is just a coincidence."
If the original owner had not drugged Meng Jingdong and forced him to sleep with her, there would not have been the bloody incident of getting married with his stepmother's nephew.
Coincidence? Meng Jingdong raised an eyebrow, reluctantly agreeing with the explanation. He had already said he'd let bygones be bygones, and he was just putting on a show to restore their peaceful partnership. After explaining, he was also influenced by her laid-back attitude. Since they were sitting together, a casual chat was fine. One of the things he was trying to do was to lobby for Lu Chengyang.
"What do you think of the Lu family?"
Lu Tian warmed his hands with the coffee cup, thought for a moment, and said, "I don't really care. I'll live my life the same way I did before. I've talked to my mom about it. Since she doesn't hate him anymore, I don't need to bother with him anymore. I'll just be my dad."
"But if the two elders of the Lu family knew your identity, they might not let you do this. You are the only grandchild of the Lu family, and you can be said to be the only heir of Lu Chengyang." Meng Jingdong said meaningfully. Lu Chengyang holds 60% of the Lu family's assets. His preferred heir must be his biological daughter Lu Tian. No matter what the attitude of the two elders of the Lu family is, as long as there is a will, she will have to deal with the Lu family in the future.
