Chapter 188: 188: I have never acknowledge him
“Xiao Xuan already told me that he was only doing this for Jinian. He went to the Tang Sect, seeking help from Miss Dong. She has agreed to treat Jinian, but the condition for it would be that Xiao Xuan has to help with kidnapping Hong Lu. Miss Dong also said that the reason why she kidnapped Hong Lu was only to get something back from her that once belonged to the Tang Sect. It wasn’t to kill her. Father, Xiao Xuan was only doing all of this for the sake of Jinian’s condition.”
After hearing the explanation, Yang Yue finally understood what happened, which was why she spoke up as well.
“That’s true, grandfather. Ah Xuan has been trying to reconcile with Jinian, and to repair their relationship. He…”
Master Lu was resting his eyes while calmly rotating two walnuts in his hands. Even when his grandson had been arrested, he was comfortable sitting like a Buddha. However, before Yang Yue could finish her sentence, he suddenly opened his eyes and glared at her, causing her to tremble, unable to finish what she was saying.
Seeing that Yang Yue had become frightened, Master Lu took back the glare from before and said, “You’re not allowed to call him by his name.”
The more domineering Yang Yue was in public, the more guilty she felt while facing Master Lu.
It was similar to how much Master Lu hated her now was as much as how much he used to like her.
Back then, when Lu Jinian had first become paralyzed, she had planned to spend the rest of her life with him. However, she couldn’t resist Lu Xuan’s pursuit and was caught by Lu Jinian.
Master Lu did not scream at her, nor did he punish her. He didn’t even stop her from dating Lu Xuan. After confirming her relationship with Lu Xuan, Master Lu even helped with dissolving the marriage contract between her and Lu Jinian.
Then… He passed his inheritance rights to Lu Jinian, directly ignoring his own biological son, Lu Yanlei.
This meant that even if she got married into the Lu family and became the Young Mistress of the Lu family, she would only be in the second Lu family, unless Lu Jinian refused to get married for the rest of his life and didn’t have any children in the future.
However, Lu Jinian had only lost mobility in his legs; his other functions were still intact.
When Master Lu calmly accepted Yang Yue and Lu Xuan’s relationship but passed on the inheritance rights to Lu Jinian in public, she was confused as to whether she should be relieved or regretful.
As she faced how calm and mean Master Lu was, Yang Yue finally understood the difference in the importance and positions of the Lu brothers in Master Lu’s heart. She bit onto her lips and forcefully removed the words ‘Jinian.’
“Grandfather, Ah Xuan truly loves his elder brother. He has spoken about it multiple times. He really wanted to seek help in order to treat Big brother’s condition. This way, he wouldn’t owe big brother anything. I believe what Uncle Lu was saying before this. This must have happened because Ah Xuan was trying to get help from Miss Dong for Big brother’s surgery, but he didn’t know that big brother had personally contacted Professor Hong Lu from Lawrence Institute. Grandfather, both of them are equally important to you. Please help Ah Xuan, he is also your grandson!”
“He deserved it!” Master Lu wasn’t even angry as he slowly explained himself to Yang Yue in an extremely good mood. “What did you mean by equally important? I have never acknowledged Lu Xuan as my grandson.”
Yang Yue’s eyes widened, feeling as if her heart had been shattered into pieces.
She turned towards Father Lu in shock, her face in disbelief.
She had always been aware of the fact that Master Lu was biased, but… What did he mean by that? That he had never acknowledged Lu Xuan as his grandson?
Then, Lu Yanlei replied with a sour look on his face, “Father, why do you have to do this? Isn’t Lu Xuan my biological son as well? Doesn’t that make him your grandson? It’s just that they were birthed by two different women.
“There’s nothing I can say about you being biased towards Jinian, since his mother left him at such a young age, but now that Xiao Xuan has been arrested, you should at least try to help him!”
