Chapter 176: Family Banquet
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Friday arrived in no time at all. The Lu Family’s banquet was held at the Lu Family’s old residence halfway up the mountain.
Ever since Old Master Lu abdicated his position and Lu Zhao established the Luya Group, the Lu Family had not held such a large-scale banquet.
Almost all the dignitaries in the city had come to the Lu Family’s banquet. It was said that Old Master Lu had something important to announce today.
Luo Ying held Lu Zhao’s arm and got out of the car. She was wearing a purple gauze dress today and a white suit. Her hair had been curled into waves and hung on her shoulders. She looked like an otherworldly deity. The moment she appeared, she became the center of attention.
Almost all the socialites looked at her.
Recently, she and Lu Zhao had just announced their relationship online, and everyone had been very surprised.
After all, Luo Ying had always been a female idol with a bad reputation, but Lu Zhao was different. Even so, it was rumored that he was a violent man who only cared about benefits.
However, his looks, prominent family background, and the power of the Lu Family in his hands made him the ideal bachelor that many of the city’s socialites yearned for.
The two of them walking together still made many people feel disgusted.
“How could a woman like Luo Ying marry Lu Zhao? Didn’t she say that she would die if she didn’t marry Lin Su?”
“That’s right, that’s right. She even jumped off a building for Lin Su. Why is she clinging onto Lu Zhao now and refusing to let go?”
“You guys don’t know it yet, right? Something happened to Luo Ying’s family. I reckon that if she doesn’t cling to Lu Zhao’s thigh, the Luo Family will be finished in the future.’
Ear-piercing comments came from beside her. Luo Ying gave them absolutely no reaction. She just held Lu Zhao’s hand and walked into the old residence. Lu Zhao patted her hand lightly. “You’ve suffered a lot, being here with me. ‘ When she was with him, she got attacked from all angles.
“They’re just jealous that I can be with you. I’m not angry. Don’t forget why we’re here today.” Luo Ying made a face at Lu Zhao.
Lu Zhao nodded and reached out to put his arm around her waist.
The main purpose of their visit today was to investigate his mother.
Lu Zhao asked Luo Ying to sit on the sofa in the hall and wait for him. He went to greet a few old acquaintances.
The main hall of the old mansion was massive. At that moment, many people were already there. Lu Zhao’s two cousins, who had a conflict with Luo Ying previously, did not come. It was said that because of the previous incident, their parents’ properties had been confiscated by Lu Zhao.
Second Aunt Hu Jing and Lu Zhao’s Aunt Lu He were there, but they looked at Lu Zhao and Luo Ying with vigilance.
“Aunt, you’re here too.” Luo Ying looked at Lu He and said with a smile.
Lu He forced out a smile. ” Long time no see. I just find it odd to see you here today. Don’t you know that the old man has something to announce?”
“This is the Lu Family’s banquet. I’m Lu Zhao’s wife. Why shouldn’t I be here?” Luo Ying said lightly.
Lu He sneered. “You might not know this, but Old Master has already found a new marriage partner for Lu Zhao. You’re going to have to get a divorce with Lu Zhao very soon.”
What Lu He said was true. She was the old master’s most beloved daughter, and he would tell her anything.
At today’s banquet, the old master was going to announce the news of Lu Zhao’s divorce.
Luo Ying frowned. Even if he had a new marriage partner, he would have to announce it after she and Lu Zhao divorced. Wouldn’t it cause the Lu family to fall into turmoil if he announced it so rashly?
“Doesn’t everyone here know that Lu Zhao is a married man?” asked Luo Ying.
“Who do you think would care about a person like you?” Lu He sneered. ” Old Master is Lu Zhao’s relative, and Lu Zhao’s mother is also in Old Master’s hands. Who dyou think Lu Zhao will listen to? You or Old Master?”
Luo Ying didn’t want to get entangled with Lu He.
Lu He did not have much ability. If not for the old master’s help, she would have starved to death on the streets. That was why she was willing to be the old master’s tool and let him dictate her life.
But Lu Zhao was definitely not cut form the same cloth.
Luo Ying ignored Lu He and prepared to get up and walk around.
At that moment, Lu He suddenly grabbed Luo Ying’s arm. “Where are you going? Are you trying to ruin the old master’s plan?”
Luo Ying trmea to DreaK tree.
“Let go,” she said coldly with a frown..
