Chapter 1168 - Lu Yan’s Heart Is Dead
Hearing the grand old master’s words, Lu Xiang could not help but tremble. She broke down and shouted, “No! I didn’t do it!”
“Lu Yan!” Grand Old Master Lu’s gaze landed on Lu Yan as he said word by word, “From now on, your surname is no longer Lu. Your surname is Gu!
“However, someone like you isn’t worthy of having the same surname as Ah Zheng. The Gu family might not even acknowledge an illegitimate child like you, so you can take your mother’s surname.”
Lu Yan’s eyes were filled with unwillingness and fear. It was not the last moment yet, so there was still room for negotiation.
The video had already ended, but he did not say anything from the beginning until the end. He could say that he was still young at that time and did not know what Lu Bai meant.
Lu Yan forced himself to calm down and explained, “Grand Old Master, actually, I didn’t know what Grandpa meant at that time, so…”
“Heh! Are you going to say that you didn’t understand what they were saying?” Grand Old Master Lu sneered. “Lu Yan! You’re really stubborn! Since you’re so unconvinced, don’t blame me for not showing you any respect! Wang Liang!”
“Yes!” Butler Wang responded, then pressed the play button again. Voices from the footage sounded again.
Fifth Uncle Lu asked, “Ah Yan, what do you think?”
At that time, Lu Yan was only in his teens. He had a gentle temperament and was like a noble young master. His voice was gentle, but the words that came from his mouth were cold and vicious. “Grandpa is only doing this for the sake of the overall situation. Sacrificing Gu Zheng can exchange for the peace of everyone in the Lu family. Moreover, the Lu family is already in trouble now. If such a scandal spreads, how can we establish ourselves in Li City in the future? Since Gu Zheng is the flesh and blood of the Lu family, he should make a sacrifice for the Lu family!
“My mother is kind-hearted. If she were still alive, she would definitely abandon Gu Zheng for the sake of the Lu family’s reputation!”
Lu Yan’s pupils suddenly constricted, and his lips trembled. His heart was dead.
When Grand Old Master Lu heard this, he could not help but curse, “Lu Yan! You still dare to say that you didn’t know anything? As expected of Huang Lilan’s son! You’re as vicious and pretentious as she is. You even dare to call Qingyun your mother. If she were alive, she definitely wouldn’t have abandoned Ah Zheng. You bastard, cough, cough…”
After all, Grand Old Master Lu had just recovered from a serious illness. However, he found out that his most beloved granddaughter had passed away for no reason, and her child was forced to wander outside, those idiots joined forces with the mistress to deal with Ah Zheng, and they even wanted to kill him to avoid future trouble.
He could not help but cough. Wang Liang hurriedly brought him a cup of tea. “Grand Old Master, you’ve just recovered from a serious illness. You can’t be too agitated.”
Grand Old Master Lu took a sip of tea, and his breathing gradually stabilized. His sharp gaze landed on Lu Yan. “Back then, Huang Lilan abused Ah Zheng because she wanted him to die a silent death. This way, no one would stand in your way.
“Lu Yan, you clearly knew that Huang Lilan was your biological mother, but you deliberately let Huang Lilan torture the young Ah Zheng. If Ah Zheng weren’t lucky, he would’ve died in Huang Lilan’s hands a long time ago!
“Not only did Huang Lilan kill my granddaughter, but she also wanted to kill Ah Zheng. You idiots actually helped two outsiders harm the Lu family’s flesh and blood! Lu Xiang, you and Lu Bai ruined the Lu family’s reputation for your own selfish desires. You should pay the price for everything you’ve done!”
Lu Xiang gasped. Her body seemed to not listen to her as she collapsed to the floor.
At this moment, the people from the Lu branch family and the audience in the live-stream finally reacted.
[Lu Yan… is really Huang Lilan’s biological son? He clearly knew his identity, yet he still said that Gu Zheng was an illegitimate child and made everyone curse and attack him. This man is so shameless!]
[With Gu Zheng’s ability, Lu Corporation never would’ve fallen to this state if he were in charge of the Lu family. I’ve really learned something today! Lu Qingyun’s biological father actually helped outsiders deal with his biological grandson. Has Old Master Lu become muddle-headed?]
[I only found out today that Lu Xiang is actually an illegitimate daughter! Lu Qingyun is the daughter of the first wife. After Lu Bai abandoned his first wife and married a mistress, he started to hate Lu Qingyun. Maybe Lu Qingyun’s death is related to Lu Xiang and Lu Bai!]
[Old Master Lu kept saying to the public that he doted on Lu Qingyun very much, but he colluded with outsiders to kill Lu Qingyun behind her back. Later on, he even wanted to kill Gu Zheng! The Lu family is too vicious!]
