Chapter 540: A Small Problem
"My son is the best!" Zhang Wenling said with a smug face as she hugged Lu Chen! She had the magazine in her hand.
"You saw it too?" Lu Chen sighed. Why am I not surprised?
"Who didn't see it? Did you know your magazine was sold out the moment it was placed on the shelves?"
"It did?!" Lu Chen's face widened when he heard this revelation. How did it get sold out so quickly?! There was something off about this.
"Mmmhmm, you can download a copy from the website too!" Since all the paperbacks got bought out, it was time to go digital!
"..."
"Grandma and grandpa have been grinning ear to ear about you." Lu Hao added as well as he grabbed his head. He was the one who took the phone call.
"Grandma and grandpa know about it too?!" Just how many people viewed the magazine?! It was only a day since it went on the shelf! Wait, a day hadn't even passed!
This was too scary!
Lu Chen didn't imagine something like this to happen.
"Also, I've been getting a lot of calls about girls wanting to ask you out." Zhang Wenling smugly said. Many families were calling them, praising how handsome her son was and wanting him to go on blind dates with their daughter.
"..."
While Lu Chen was making a surprised look, Lu Xiaotong and Lu Aotian entered the mansion.
"Welcome back, you two. How did your day go?" Zhang Wenling asked with a smile. But it caused the two's faces to be grim.
"Did something happen?" Zhang Wenling caught the look.
"It's nothing. It was a small problem." Lu Xiaotong said with a wry smile. Seeing her husband not saying anything, Zhang Wenling turned her head to Lu Aotian,
"Aotian, you tell me what happened today."
"There's really nothing wrong, mom?" Lu Aotian waved his hands.
"...You suck at lying, brother." Lu Hao retorted, and Lu Chen shook his head. Lu Aotian's tell was so easy that there was no need to say anything.
"..."
"Lu Aotian, just because you're all grown up doesn't mean I won't spank you!" Zhang Wenling said as she rolled her sleeves, ready for a fight. Lu Xiaotong sighed as he explained,
"We had a run-in with the Liao family."
"..." The Liao family? A dark expression formed on Lu Chen's face, "Dad, tell me more about it."
"We had a deal with this company, but it was halted because the Liao family paid them more money." He found out about it through some connections.
Hearing this, Lu Chen frowned even more. Didn't we make a...No, that was only with Liao Yan? When he talked with Bai Geming, he gave his word that Liao Yan won't bother Song Yanmei.
His family wasn't. And this wasn't about Liao Yan either. This was the Liao family deciding to attack him!
"Dad, do you want me to deal with it?" Lu Chen said with a dark expression. He knew all of this was his fault. But,
BOOP! What Lu Chen got was a fist to the head!
"Do you really think we need your help dealing with something like this?" Lu Xiaotong scolded, "I've encountered many things before you were even alive. This is nothing."
"Yeah, you don't need to worry about anything, little brother." Lu Aotian added.
"But."
"We can deal with it. Just focus on your company. We can handle the Liao family." Lu Xiaotong said,
"Now that they made the first move, we're obliged to make the second."
