Lin Shuyu said gloomily: "I don't know either. I guess they went to find grandpa and uncle." She glanced at them standing together.
"Oh, then I'll go find her." Lin Zhiyuan rubbed her and said, "Don't worry about Lin Yu's affairs. Dad will help you solve them. Just do your best and ignore those people's gossip. Do you understand?"
"Okay." Lin Shuyu nodded and watched Lin Zhiyuan leave.
After leaving, Lin Zhiyuan did not go to find Lu Rong, but found a place where no one was around to call Li Yanwan back.
"You haven't been exposed, have you?" Li Yanwan asked worriedly.
Lin Zhiyuan laughed and said, "It was fooled. She is still worried about being schemed by Lin Yu."
"So you're just going to watch coldly? Lin Yu caused our daughter to suffer so much, and you're just going to let it go?"
"How could that be? Wanwan, don't worry, I won't let Yu'er suffer in vain."
"Okay, I'll wait for your news."
The other side.
Lu Rong stayed with the Lu family, and his father's brows were full of worry.
"Xiao Rong, I know your relationship with Zhiyuan is strained because of what happened fifteen years ago, but now that Mr. Lin is gone and the company is in Zhiyuan's hands, for the sake of our family, you have to learn to be submissive."
"He hasn't looked for that woman for so many years and has always been focused on his family. It's obvious that he has you in his heart. Our family's situation would definitely not work without the support of the Lin family. Just think of it as doing it for the Lu family, even if it means trying to please him."
Mr. Lu loves his daughter very much, but when it comes to family interests, family affection becomes a little weak. Her brother sat next to her without saying a word, but silence meant everything.
Lu Rong lowered her head and bit her lips, obviously not wanting to bow to Lin Zhiyuan.
"Xiaorong, I beg you, cultivate your relationship with Zhiyuan and don't let him sleep in the study anymore. You and your wife have four children, what's the problem?"
"All men are the same. Besides, he has money, so it's normal for him to be tempted. But he returned to his family in time, and he must have realized his mistake. Men are all about reputation. If you are willing to give him a way out, the grudge between you two will definitely be resolved."
Is it really that simple?
Lu Rong didn't believe that Lin Zhiyuan didn't hate her. Li Yanwan was Lin Zhiyuan's white moonlight, whom he could not reconcile with. Even though they hadn't seen each other for many years, Lu Rong always felt that he still had feelings for Li Yanwan.
"Just look at Zhiyuan's attitude towards Lin Yu and you'll know how important you are to him. If he really misses that woman, would he not love Lin Yu?"
Yes, Lin Yu has been exposed online several times, and his life at home is worse than that of a dog. Isn’t this all acknowledged by Lin Zhiyuan?
Lu Rong frowned. Could it be that Lin Zhiyuan had really forgotten about Li Yanwan and was just waiting for her to give him a way out?
But fifteen years have passed, and the two of them have been playing their own games and living in peace. If she really wants her to give in, she can't do it.
She is the daughter carefully nurtured by the Lu family. She is arrogant by nature and cannot tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes. If it were not for maintaining the relationship between the two families, she would have parted ways with Lin Zhiyuan fifteen years ago. Why would she have endured until now?
"Dad, is there no other way?" Lu Rong asked with a frown, "Does our family have to cooperate with the Lin family?"
Master Lu nodded: "Other noble families are avoiding it, and I have no choice."
If possible, he didn't want to bow down to his brother-in-law. Thinking back to fifteen years ago, he had a tough attitude and belittled Lin Zhiyuan. Now that the family was in decline, he had to rely on the Lin family to maintain the overall situation. He felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
But I have to compromise.
Brother Lu Rong kept his head down and didn't say a word, but his face had already been trampled on the ground. He hated himself for being incompetent. If he could ask for cooperation from the Ji family and the Su family, he wouldn't be so passive.
"Xiaorong, I beg you." Old Master Lu stood up and begged, "As long as you and Zhiyuan plead for mercy and help the Lu family overcome this crisis, the Lu family can still gain a foothold in the capital."
"I know you feel bad and can't swallow this, but you have to know that without the Lu family, your life will definitely not be easy."
As a man, Mr. Lu knows Lin Zhiyuan too well. He is so conceited and narrow-minded that he will definitely kick Lu Rong out at the first opportunity.
Lu Rong is not stupid. She naturally knows that without the protection of the Lu family, she will be worthless and will be kicked out by Lin Zhiyuan.
The Lu family father and son exchanged glances and were about to persuade her, but Lu Rong compromised and said, "Okay, I'll try, but you have to be prepared. Lin Zhiyuan is not easy to talk to."
"Okay! As long as you ask, we will take care of the rest."
After making up her mind, Lu Rong got up and left. She felt complicated and didn't want to face her family for the first time. She knew from the beginning that there was no love in wealthy families, but she was the stupidest one who thought she could warm Lin Zhiyuan's heart.
After watching her leave, Mr. Lu and his son sighed.
"Dad, do you think if we make Xiaorong submit for the Lu family, will she hate us?"
"What can I do about hatred? Without the Lu family, her situation will only become more difficult. If she still wants to maintain the status quo, she can only give in. Lin Zhenhai's death means that no one can suppress Lin Zhiyuan."
Mr. Lu sighed and said, "I'm worried that Lin Zhiyuan still has feelings for that woman. I don't know how long our family can hold out in this situation. If he doesn't hesitate to bring her back, I'm afraid we'll just have to suffer in silence."
Lu Wendong was silent.
"Now I just hope your sister will be more sensible and stop making Lin Zhiyuan angry. It would be best if she could win Lin Zhiyuan's heart."
At the door, Lu Rong, who overheard these words, felt completely chilled. She clenched her palms tightly and didn't even notice her nails digging into her palms.
She wiped the tears from her eyes and walked outside.
The weather outside is sunny, but why is it raining in her heart?
"mom."
The sudden call brought Lu Rong back to her senses. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lin Shuyu trotting over. She forced a smile and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Shuyu stood in front of her, looking left and right, wondering: "Where's my dad? Didn't he say he was coming to see you? Why is he nowhere to be seen?"
"Looking for me?" Lu Rong shook her head: "I've been staying with your grandfather and uncle. I haven't seen your father."
"That's strange." Lin Shuyu stroked her chin and said, "My dad clearly said he would come to see you."
"Maybe he was delayed by something."
"Too."
"I am coming."
Speak of the devil, and here comes Lin Zhiyuan, walking over from a distance. He came to Lin Shuyu's side with a smile on his face, "I just received a call, that's why I was delayed."
"You looking for me?" Lu Rong rarely took the initiative to talk to Lin Zhiyuan. Lin Zhiyuan was surprised, then smiled and said, "Well, Dad passed away, and Mom has been in a bad mood recently. I want you to spend more time with Mom and comfort her."
Lu Rong was still waiting for the next words, but Lin Zhiyuan seemed to have finished speaking. He looked at Lin Shuyu and started chatting with her.
Thinking of her father's instructions, Lu Rong suppressed her nausea and said, "Okay, I'll take care of Mom, and you don't have to get too tired."
