Qu Yaotian cast an inquisitive look at his father and Chen Meng’er,

“To think that you still want that position. You can’t even think of such a simple matter clearly.” Elder Qu looked at Qu Yaotian and snorted coldly.

Elder Qu’s words made Qu Yaotian feel a little awkward. Especially when his father said this to him in front of his niece. “Dad.” In the political arena, it could be said that Qu Yaotian was the most influential person, but at this moment, he revealed a helpless expression.

“It’s useless to call me Dad, am I wrong? You can count with your fingers. You also know which few families in our country can compete with our Qu family, and which families are usually at odds with our Qu family and are on the same side as the Lu family.”

“Dad, are you talking about the one above us?” Qu Yaotian had not thought of it but Qu Yaobing had a flash of inspiration and asked.

“How is that impossible? The Lu family relied on him to rise to the top.” Elder Qu rolled his eyes.

After hearing Elder Qu’s words, the five brothers of the Qu family fell silent. If the one above them interfered and wanted to protect the Lu family, it would be troublesome.

“Dad, you’ve called us all back. Have you thought of any good ideas?” Qu Yaoguo was talking to his father, but his eyes were fixed on Chen Meng’er.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You brat, why are you looking at Meng’er? Tell me, you are all Meng’er’s uncles, why are all of you inferior to Meng’er?” Elder Qu looked at his five sons with some resentment.

This was the first time Qu Haoxiang saw his uncles and his father being scolded so mercilessly by his grandfather. In his heart, he was both smug and a little afraid. He was afraid that his uncles and his father would settle the score with him later on.

“Grandpa, don’t be anxious. Uncle and the others have just returned. They still don’t know the ins and outs of the matter. If you ask them now, they will definitely be confused.” Chen Meng’er could not stand it anymore. She spoke up for them.

With Chen Meng’er speaking up for them, Elder Qu finally gave up and stopped reprimanding them.

Qu Yaotian and the others looked at Chen Meng’er with grateful eyes. They could not help but wipe the sweat off their foreheads.

“Grandpa, don’t just focus on getting angry. The serious matters are more important,” Chen Meng’er saw that Elder Qu had long gone off topic and reminded him.

“Serious matters?” Qu Yaotian and the rest thought that the Lu family’s matters were serious matters. Now that they looked at it, it did not seem to be the case. Qu Yaotian and the rest perked up and looked at Chen Meng’er with inquiring eyes. They did not dare look at their father like that.

“Yes. Let grandfather tell you,” Chen Meng’er threw the words to Elder Qu.

Everyone’s gaze fell on Elder Qu. There were too many gazes on him all of a sudden, causing Elder Qu to feel a little uncomfortable. After he coughed, he said, “Didn’t Yaotian mention to me some time ago that he wants to participate in this general election? I thought about it and felt that it’s feasible.”

They were all in disbelief.

“Dad, did I mishear?” Qu Yaobing was just about to pick his ears.

“Dad, didn’t you disagree last time?” Last time, Qu Yaotian went to his father to discuss the matter of him wanting to participate in the general election and was scolded. He was scolded for an entire week and his mood was very low. He didn’t even have the energy to do anything.
