Chapter 759 - How The Heck Did I Raise Such a Thing Like You?!

On the other side.

After Eldest Master Lu and Second Master Lu sent Patriarch Lu back home.

Patriarch Lu lay on the bed with his back facing everyone.

He was currently radiating an aura that was telling everyone not to mess with him.

Eldest Master Lu and Second Master Lu made eye contact and Eldest Master Lu tried to call out to him. “Father.”

Patriarch Lu opened his mouth wanting to shout at the top of his voice for them to get lost. However, he could not make a single sound and his face darkened to the extreme.

Eldest Master Lu wanted to try calling out again when Second Master Lu stopped him. “Brother, let’s go out.”

Eldest Master Lu thought about it and nodded. He turned around and headed outside.

Second Master Lu looked at Patriarch Lu’s back view and said, “Father, have a good rest.”

He left the room after saying that.

Lu Zhiheng and Yang Yuelan standing in Patriarch Lu’s room did not move. When Eldest Master Lu walked to the door, he turned around and angrily questioned them, “What are you still standing there for? Get out of the room.”

Yang Yuelan was so scared that her body was slightly trembling. She quickly followed Lu Zhiheng and left the room.

When they stepped outside the room, Second Master Lu stopped walking.

......

Eldest Master Lu, Lu Zhiheng and Yang Yuelan also stopped.

Second Master Lu looked at the two of them with a fierce expression and asked, “Are you happy now?”

Yang Yuelan shrunk her neck and dared not utter a single word.

Lu Zhiheng thought of how he had worked so hard to manage the Lu Group and yet, it kept suffering losses. Yet, Lu Jingye could easily earn hundreds of millions and deep down, he felt as sour as though he had swallowed hundreds of lemons. He was already angry and upon hearing Lu Jianlin questioning him, he said, “How would I know that Ian was the one paying for the art gallery?”

He felt that Lu Jingye must have done it on purpose. He was clearly so rich and yet, he still got someone else to fork out the money. All of it was to make him get lectured.

The more he thought about it, the more he believed it to be so. “Since Second Brother has earned so much money, now that the Lu Group is going bankrupt, why doesn’t he take out money to help the Lu Group? He…”

PA!

Eldest Master Lu’s chest heaved up and down from anger. “How the heck did I raise such a thing like you?! You don’t have the ability yourself and now you’re trying to push the responsibility onto someone else?”

Lu Zhiheng covered his face which was slapped and was burning with rage internally. However, he did not dare to say anything else.

Yang Yuelan who was standing next to him wanted to touch his face out of concern but he slapped her hand away.

Eldest Master Lu roared at the both of them. “Return to your rooms. I’ll settle the accounts with you later.”

Lu Zhiheng left with a livid expression and Yang Yuelan was busy keeping up with him.

After the both of them left, the two brothers stood there looking at each other.

Eldest Master Lu wanted to say something to soothe the situation.

Lu Jianlin took the opportunity to speak first. “Brother, I’m sure you should know better than me about Jingye and Yiyi’s situation and how valued they are by the higher-ups. Father has been confused his whole life and we can’t change his mindset. However, he’s in poor health right now and if no one mentioned Yiyi, he would not have gone looking for trouble.”

Eldest Master Lu’s expression turned dark, but he did not make any retorts.

Lu Jianlin continued to say, “It used to be my sister-in-law and now it’s your son Lu Zhiheng and his wife. Are you that unwilling to see my son and daughter-in-law living a good life?”

“What are you talking about?!”

Eldest Master Lu could not take it anymore. “Zhiheng is not cut out to manage such a large company and it’s inevitable that he will be grumpy. Yuelan is just a woman and what could she possibly know? When I go back, I will give them a lecture and educate them. Why the need to make things sound so serious?”

“I’m making things sound serious? Do you know if we did not manage to resolve this situation today, how huge the after-effects would be? If the reporters were to report this news indiscriminately, not only would Yiyi’s reputation fall into ruin, but do you know how others would laugh at our family?”

The more Lu Jianlin talked, the more agitated he got. In the end, he had practically shouted out the last sentence.

Patriarch Lu who was lying on the bed had listened to their conversation without missing a single word. He was extremely angry and upset.

His son actually dared to say that about him?!

They remained outside the door and had talked for quite some time before they left. Patriarch Lu lay on the bed and their words were still echoing in his mind. The pressure he released was so cold that it could basically freeze the whole room.

Just then, the door to his room opened and someone came in.

Patriarch Lu did not want to see anyone right now and he turned around to glare at the doorway.

Immediately, he was met with Elder Hu’s blazing eyes.

Elder Hu stood in the doorway and remained unmoved while he said, “I can’t cure your illness anymore. I’ve told you before that if you are still rude to Little Yi, I won’t treat you anymore. You can go ahead and find someone who is willing to treat you.”

He closed the door and left after he said his piece.

Patriarch Lu glared at the door with a foul expression, as though he could make a hole in it with his eyes.

Everyone was rebelling. His son and grandson had disobeyed him. Right now, even his old subordinates dared to talk to him like that!

The angrier he got, the more painful his head was. He could not take it anymore and wanted to call for help. However, he recalled that he was unable to speak right now.

He could only totter out of bed to look for the medicine for himself. During this period, he had even knocked over the water and splashed it on himself.

…

Zi Yi and the rest did not know what happened at the main residence.

By the time they returned to the Lu Family’s villa, it was already three in the afternoon.

Mrs. Lu had already informed the housekeeper to hold a dinner banquet tonight, so the housekeeper had already made appropriate arrangements for the venue.

Mrs. Lu looked at the three of them and said with a smile, “Your task right now is to freshen yourselves up and dress well. It’s been a long time since our Lu Family has held a dinner banquet. When the guests arrive, remember not to embarrass me.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zi Yi promised her. “Mom, don’t you worry. We will never embarrass you.”

She then pulled Lu Jingye’s arm and headed upstairs.

Lu Yunxiao also turned around and headed upstairs.

It was an impossible feat for him to dress up, but he could use this period of time to return to his room and have some silence.

Mrs. Lu’s warning voice sounded from behind. “If you don’t change into a suit, just wait to see how I’ll take care of you later.”

Lu Yunxiao’s footsteps paused and he helplessly answered, “I understand, Mother.”

He continued heading upstairs.

Only then was Mrs. Lu satisfied and she went to check on the decorations of the hall.

The banquet hall was basically their living room. As the villa was rather large, the living room was appropriate to be used as the banquet hall.

The housekeeper was walking behind her.

Mrs. Lu explained as she walked. “When everyone arrives later, get the bodyguards and helpers to walk around more. Especially, have them check those remote corners. If they see Yunxiao, tell them to call him back to the gathering area.

The housekeeper silently prayed for the Third Young Master deep down inside while he replied respectfully, “Yes, Madam.”

…

All the prominent people in the capital came when the Lu Family’s second house held a banquet.

When the banquet started, the number of attendees was more than they expected.

Lu Jingye could only call the three golden flowers of the Dou Family to accompany Zi Yi. At the same time, he passed her a cup of fruit juice and reminded her to sit down. “I’ll go and entertain the guests, do not drink any alcohol.”

Looking at Lu Jingye who left to entertain the guests, Dou Yue’er snickered and poked Zi Yi. “Cousin Yiyi, just how worried is brother-in-law?”

Dou Yurui added. “It should be asked just how much do you like to drink, for brother-in-law to be so worried?”

Zi Yi pouted and did not wish to talk to them about this sad topic.

Dou Yurui was only teasing her and she then shifted her gaze to the guests who came in one after another. She sighed and said, “Are these women here for a beauty contest? To think that each and every one of them are dressed up so flowery.”

It is currently winter and yet all of them were all dressed up so beautifully as if they were hot. They revealed their shoulders, collarbones, calves etc….
