Chapter 708 Isn't this going too far?
Isn't Lu Jianshe in pain and distress?
No, he's just transferring all his pain onto others and has already tried to avenge his son.
Madam Lu complained that he was always silent and taciturn, and that he listened to Lu Zhaolin blindly, completely unaware of Lu Zhaolin's ulterior motives.
How could that be? It's just because, as Lu Zhaolin said, the Lu family can't be without a son. If his son is gone, there's still his nephew with the same surname, Lu, who can be raised.
These were things that only the men in the family could understand. After Madam Lu first expressed her incomprehension and disgust, Lu Jianshe stopped talking to her about these things.
Then Madam Lu coldly watched as Lu Shengying gradually became involved in all their family affairs, increasingly acting like a son in and out of the house.
She lived such suffocating days for almost ten years.
Ten years is enough to drive a person crazy.
Looking back at the curious onlookers, Madam Lu's resentment and suppressed anger were pushing her to the brink of madness. She began to tremble all over, her heart pounding with a frantic urge to roar, to shout, to ask these strangers if it was really wrong of her not wanting others to leech off her.
Seeing that she was not in a good state, Lu Zhaolin immediately frowned and went over to forcibly take Madam Lu away.
No one heard him speaking to Madam Lu in a low voice.
"Don't go crazy. You know what my brother values most. You still have a daughter who needs the Lu family to marry into a good family. Don't ruin everything because of a moment of impulse."
Thinking that the spoiled Madam Lu Shujing was completely under his control, she could only passively follow him away.
The onlookers quickly dispersed when they saw there was no more excitement to watch, and Chu Xin and Zhou Yichen, who were standing at the back, exchanged a glance and turned to walk back.
Zhou Yichen has already told Elder Ge all about his suspicions about Lu Jianshe and the results of his investigation, including the evidence that confirmed today that Lu Jianshe was indeed hostile towards him.
After a long silence, Old Ge looked at the four young people in the room and was at a loss for whether to praise or scold them.
Go ahead and praise him, he's so good at causing trouble he can't bring himself to say it.
Go ahead and curse. There's a reason for this, and it involves a life. All we've tried to do is seek justice. So how can we curse?
In the end, he could only helplessly demand to see all the investigation reports, and more importantly, he reminded Zhou Yichen that if Lu Jianshe was truly guilty, he should resolve the matter within the bounds of the law, and absolutely should not disregard the law.
Zhou Yichen had always done these things very well in the past, so Elder Ge wasn't worried.
But now, this brat is acting like a kid suddenly going through a second adolescence when he's in a relationship. His actions are unpredictable, and his old man is genuinely worried that he might take risks and do something illegal in order to get revenge.
As for Yang Zheng, things have come to this point, so he can only deny everything to the end. No matter who asks, he must be a good comrade who is commended for his courage and righteousness.
After saying all this, Old Ge planned to go and ask the doctor how Lu Jianshe was doing.
Chu Xin and Zhou Yichen followed behind, never expecting to witness such a good show.
"I didn't expect the Lu family to be so lively. I knew I was right. Lu Zhaolin is definitely a very wicked person. I should have taught him a lesson back then."
As Chu Xin spoke, she forcefully slapped the air a few times, as if she were hitting Lu Zhaolin.
He once tried to use the same old rhetoric of "harmony is precious," "letting things go," and "family members don't hold grudges overnight" to persuade her to convince Ge Shaoting to reconcile with Gu Beizhan and achieve a so-called happy ending. Now, just thinking about it makes him feel disgusted.
Zhou Yichen chuckled and pressed her hand down, then continued, "It seems he used this trick to get Lu Jianshe under his control, which is why he's trying to use it on others. But what I'm curious about is that anyone who knows what's going on wouldn't let him succeed. Lu Jianshe isn't stupid, so why is he willing to let him do as he pleases?"
Chu Xin pouted, "What's so strange about that? Lu Zhaolin knows how to manipulate people's hearts."
Just like Gu Beizhan, who wholeheartedly wanted to resolve his feud with Ge Shaoting and become father and son, Lu Zhaolin grasped his psychology, offered comfort and help, so Gu Beizhan couldn't help but regard him as a kind and helpful confidant.
He may have used the same method on Lu Jianshe.
However, Chu Xin also had doubts: was carrying on the family line really that important?
Is it too much to immediately pin one's hopes on someone else's son after losing one's own?
