Chapter 305: The Hua and Lu families split
Guo Juanjuan blamed all the mistakes on Su Qian and never felt that her son had done anything wrong.
Old Master Hua glared at Hua Changqing with dissatisfaction.
"You too, as the grandson of the Hua family, should behave properly. Even when playing with women, you should be careful. Why mess with those dirty things for no reason?"
Lu Shiyu didn't catch up with Qi Xu and Su Qian, and turned back to sit at the table. When he heard this, he couldn't help but feel sorry for Su Qian.
"Everyone else is dirty, but you, the Hua family, are noble? If you are really so noble and upright, why are you so eager to marry into the Xue family?"
"Fortunately, the people in the Xue Mansion are all very discerning and look down upon the vain and selfish hypocrites of your Hua family."
Hua Baishan's face turned ashen with anger, and he slammed the table in anger again.
"Lu Laosan, what do you mean? You're so protective of that vixen. Could it be that you've also been bewitched by her?"
"Don't forget, my younger sister is your sister-in-law. Our two families are truly related by marriage."
"Back then, your Lu family was just a second-rate family. It was our Hua family who supported you all the way, and that helped you achieve your current status."
"Now that your Lu family has prospered, you've become ungrateful. Even a young boy like you dares to challenge our elders?"
Hua Baishan was right. The Lu family wasn't as prosperous as the Hua family before. It was Hua Baizhan, with his enthusiastic support and guidance, who helped the Lu family gain a firm foothold in the south and become a dominant force.
After Hua Baizhan retired, in order to repay his gratitude and fulfill his engagement, Lu Shishang sacrificed his personal happiness and married the fickle Hua Yingying.
He couldn't divorce, and it was difficult to get married, so Lu Shishang was still a single man at the age of thirty-six or thirty-seven.
What's more, the Lu family has long repaid the favor they owed to the Hua family.
Last time, when the Hua family was jointly boycotted by entrepreneurs from the Western Chamber of Commerce, it was the Lu family who contributed money and effort to help them resolve the issue.
Hua Changjin played with women, got into fights, and got involved in several murder lawsuits. It was the Lu family who stepped in to help him suppress those scandals.
Over the years, the Lu family has assisted the Hua family with countless industrial projects. Not only do the Hua family members not realize this, they also fail to show gratitude. They act condescending, constantly talking about the little favors they received, and feeling that the Lu family is forever in their debt.
He finally understood why his second brother had to keep Qiqi's identity a secret and prevent her from returning to her ancestral home.
The Hua family was truly shameful. If Qiqi went back, they would suck her blood and eat her flesh, devouring her until not even a bone was left.
Lu Shiyu's anger burst out from his eyes and he glared at Hua Baishan fiercely.
He questioned him angrily.
"Boss Hua, over the years, who has been helping whom, and which family has taken advantage of whom? Don't you know?"
"It's a joke that truly ungrateful people have the nerve to lick their faces and call others ungrateful."
"Your Hua family's daughter married my eldest brother and became my eldest sister-in-law, but which man's room does she sleep in every night? Do you really not know, or are you deliberately pretending to be deaf and dumb?"
"We didn't reveal some things because we gave your Hua family enough face. Now, you are shameless and insist on tearing down your face and exposing those dirty things. Our Lu family doesn't mind parting ways with your Hua family."
"From now on, Hua is Hua, and Lu is Lu. The two families no longer need to have any business dealings."
"If my sister-in-law is willing to stay in the Lu family, she will have food to eat. If she doesn't want to, you can divorce her. My eldest brother will never try to persuade her to stay."
Lu Shiyu's words were very serious, completely severing the decades-long bond between the two families. From then on, the Hua and Lu families were just acquaintances.
The Lu family will never again help the Hua family clean up their mess and cover up those unfinished projects that have resulted in a loss of all their money.
Seeing that Lu Shiyu was determined and was about to break up, Mr. Hua quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Xiao Yu, your uncle Hua is in a bad mood today and spoke a little harshly. Don't take it personally."
"The Hua and Lu families have been friends for decades. How can we just break off like that? Only by working together and supporting each other, and forming an alliance, can we go further. Don't you agree?"
Lu Shiyu said coldly.
"Joining hands to support each other is mutual, not one-sided poverty alleviation. Over the years, your Hua family has sucked blood from our Lu family, and you've had enough."
"From now on, please be self-reliant. Our Lu family will no longer be involved in the Hua family's business and family affairs."
Lu Shiyu raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"This cup is for you. I wish your Hua family a prosperous business, great success, and great prosperity."
Then he threw the cup heavily to the ground, shattering the transparent glass all over the floor.
It symbolizes the breakup between the Hua and Lu families.
Lu Shiyu's fall brought the Hua family's status to the bottom.
The merchants' wait-and-see attitude was immediately revealed, and they all tried to avoid the Hua family.
The Hua family offended the three major wealthy families, the Lin family, the Lu family, and the Xue family, in one day.
There was no doubt that the Hua family would be marginalized in the business world from now on. Their business resources would plummet, and it wouldn't be long before they were eliminated from the ranks of the four great families.
And what will take its place will be a quietly rising new enterprise, Song An Group.
Looking at Lu Shiyu's departing back, Hua Baishan felt so regretful that his intestines turned green.
Originally, after offending the Lin family, the Hua family still had the Lu family as a backer. Now, even the Lu family has abandoned him. He dared not imagine how difficult the future of the Hua family would be.
This meal was really a mouthful.
He lost his in-laws, his allies ran away, and he made a powerful enemy. He was surrounded by enemies on all sides.
The decadent and depressed Hua Changqing was drunk and staggered on the road, laughing wildly.
"Su Qian, you stinky bitch, now you've hurt me like this, are you satisfied?"
"I'm telling you, if I don't have a good life, you won't have an easy life either!"
Hua Changqing was like a madman, calling Su Qian non-stop, but Su Qian didn't answer any of his calls. She also blocked all his contact information.
He wanted to vent, but no one gave him the chance.
"Su Qian, how dare you block me? Didn't you always say you loved me? Is your love so cheap?"
"I give you one minute to call me back, otherwise, I will never talk to you again."
The self-righteous Hua Changqing thought that Su Qian was no different from those gold diggers who tried to curry favor with rich men, and that as long as he beckoned her, she would kneel down and lick his ass.
But Su Qian disappointed him.
All the messages he sent were rejected. Su Qian never responded to him from beginning to end.
On the side of the road, a woman in red clothes and red high heels stopped beside him and asked him with a smile.
"Master Hua, are you heartbroken or have you lost your power?"
"How about having a couple more drinks with me? No matter what kind of situation it is, I can help you out."
"As long as you are willing to serve me well!"
Hua Changqing slowly opened his tipsy, blurry eyes and asked her, "Who are you?"
The woman's bright red lips leaned close to his ear and gave him a wicked smile. "Guess?"
Hua Changqing glanced at her and didn't recognize her. He burped a foul-smelling burp and said something unpleasantly.
“I don’t know him!”
"You're too ugly, I'm not interested in you!"
