The fifth uncle of the Lu family also stood up. “Grand Old Master, you’re destroying the Lu family!”

The grand old master had a serious expression and did not waver at all. Wang Liang did not hesitate and played the video.

Gu Zheng’s eyes were deep as he stared at the screen like everyone else. Suddenly, a pair of soft hands covered his ears. Qiao Xi stood on tiptoes and kissed his cheek before leaning close to his ear. She said gently, “Ah Zheng, don’t look or listen.”

He obediently closed his eyes and bent down slightly to pull Qiao Xi into his embrace. His Adam’s apple moved, and his eyes could not help but sting. He said in a low voice, “Actually, I’ve already seen it.”

This video recorded the Lu family discussing how to make him, Lu Qingyun’s son, never be able to make a comeback. They used all kinds of dirty methods to deal with Gu Zheng. Qiao Xi really did not want him to hear all of this.

However, Gu Zheng’s emotions were very calm. His voice was hoarse. “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”

Even though she knew that Gu Zheng had seen it, Qiao Xi still covered his ears. She only let go a little as she wanted to lean close to his ear and say, “But I don’t want you to see it. Just look at me.”

A different emotion surged in Gu Zheng’s heart. He was so overwhelmed that he could not say anything.

At this moment, Lu Yan was leaning against the wheelchair. His entire body was limp, and his suit was drenched in sweat. He was in a sorry state. He could not imagine how everyone would deal with him, the true illegitimate child, after finding out the truth.

What right did he have to be an illegitimate child? He had already used Gu Zheng’s identity to live for more than 20 years. Why couldn’t he continue to use that identity to live? Was bloodline so important? Wasn’t it enough as long as he could contribute to the Lu family?

Lu Xiang’s mind was in a mess. She hurriedly rushed in front of Wang Liang to stop him, but the bodyguards subdued her. The scene was silent. Everyone stared fixedly at the screen. The audience in the live-stream also watched quietly. Soon, sounds of conversation rang out from the surveillance footage.

The video showed the living room of the Lu family’s patriarch’s residence. Sitting on the main seat was the patriarch of the Lu family, Lu Bai. Beside him were Lu Xiang, the fifth uncle of the Lu family, Lu Yan, and a few others.

Lu Bai was putting on an act. “Since the two children were already miscarried, for the sake of the Lu family’s reputation, we can only make do with it. If news of this gets out, the Lu family will definitely become the laughing stock of Li City. Moreover, Ah Yan has already been living in the Lu family for so many years. We’ve grown fond of each other. If we make this matter public, Ah Yan won’t be able to continue staying in the Lu family.”

Lu Bai continued, “Since Gu Zheng is Qingyun’s son, he should make a sacrifice for the Lu family. It’s his honor to be able to protect the reputation of everyone in the Lu family by letting himself be abandoned.”

Fifth Uncle was in a difficult position. “But this is unfair to Gu Zheng. He can’t bear the reputation of an illegitimate child for the rest of his life. After all, he…”

Lu Xiang interrupted mercilessly, “What’s unfair about it?! He’s just a bastard. Since he’s already bearing the title of an illegitimate child, he should continue to do so. Why implicate Ah Yan? Ah Yan is obedient and sensible. He’s the future heir of the Lu family. If he’s replaced, Ah Yan’s future will be ruined!”

Fifth Uncle was a little worried. “But if Gu Zheng finds out, he definitely won’t let us off.”

Lu Bai smiled disdainfully. “Does an illegitimate child who’s hated by the Gu family have the ability to deal with the Lu family? Even if he really has the ability, he needs evidence! Hence, we have to strike first. We can’t let him discover this secret. Or…”

He did not continue, but the killing intent in his eyes was exposed. He wanted to kill Gu Zheng. Only when Gu Zheng was dead would no one investigate this secret.

At this moment, Lu Xiang’s and Fifth Uncle’s minds buzzed, and they instantly lost the ability to think.

Hearing the conversation in the surveillance footage, Grand Old Master Lu slammed the wheelchair. “Lu Xiang! Do you still dare to say that you didn’t know anything?”

Lu Xiang lost all feeling in her body. Her legs went weak as she sat on the floor. Her heart was dead, and her eyes were filled with despair.

“For the sake of that laughable reputation, you targeted and suppressed Ah Zheng. You even let the matter go. You raised Huang Lilan’s son and made him the heir of the Lu family. You’re truly one of a kind! The Lu family was destroyed in your hands!

“Lu Bai, that piece of trash! Is he worthy of being the head of the Lu family? With an idiot son like him, I’m the one who’s truly embarrassed! He didn’t investigate the cause of Qingyun’s death and didn’t keep Qingyun’s child by his side. On the contrary, he actually wanted to kill Ah Zheng to avoid future trouble. He’s really stupid!” the grand old master reprimanded loudly.
