In the study room-
01 d Master Lu stopped in his tracks.
Shen Man lowered her eyes and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Dad. I’ve caused trouble for the family again.”
“It’s not your fault.” Old Master Lu sighed, “Ah Man, I’ve wronged you for so many years/’
Shen Man’s eyes were red and her nose was sore.
Her mouth was tightly shut, unable to say a word.
She was afraid that if she opened her mouth, her tears would fall uncontrollably.
Seeing her like this, Old Master Lu felt even more uncomfortable.
He knew his son’s temperament very well. He was a playboy and liked to flirt everywhere. Back then, Shen Man did not hesitate to break up with her family in order to marry lan Shu.
Tan Shu had indeed treated Shen Man very well during the first few years.
However, it was hard to change one’s nature. Not long after Beicheng was born, he got himself a lover. When Shen Man found out about this, she hugged Beicheng, who was still in his swaddling clothes, and cried as she begged him and the old woman to help her.
However, as parents, what else could they do other than beat and scold Tan Shu?
Gradually, Shen Man lost hope for Tan Shu and the Lu family.
She used to smile gently, but now she was serious and cold to everyone.
Later on, she eloped with the Huo family’s son.
During that period, he was overseas dealing with some business matters and did not know what happened in between.
By the time he returned to the country, everything was already set in stone.
His wife had pushed all the blame onto Shen Man. He had scolded his wife and wanted to tell others that it was not all his daughter-in-law’s fault.
However, Shen Man was unwilling to explain herself.
She said that in the hearts of the two children, their father’s image was very tall and dignified.
Since they already knew that their mother had cheated, she should not ruin their father’s image anymore.
She knelt down and begged him while crying.
Thus, he could only agree.
For so many years, Old Master Lu had always felt that he owed his daughter-in-law when he saw her being misunderstood and treated coldly.
After a moment of silence, Old Master Lu said, “How about… It’s better for you to make things clear to Ah Zhi that it was his father who cheated on you first. It’s not your fault. Ah Zhi is no longer a child. He should be able to understand your painstaking efforts now.”
Shen Man shook her head and said softly, “What can be changed even if 1 make it clear? This isn’t the only matter that has caused him to have a grudge against me. Dad, since I’ve made the decision from the beginning, 1 won’t regret it.
Now that Ah Zhi is married, 1 think Vining is a good girl. The two of them should be doing well. 1’11 be at ease when we find Beicheng. When that time comes, 1’11 move back to Sweden and the family will be more peaceful without me around.”
“How can 1 be at ease if you go back to Sweden alone?”
Old Master Lu felt that the Lu family had already let down their daughter-in “law.
If she was left alone in Sweden, he would not be able to rest in peace.
“Dad, my sister’s children are in Sweden. They will take good care of me. Don’t worry.”
Shen Man’s tone was firm, and her gaze did not waver.
Old Master Lu knew that his daughter-in-law looked weak on the outside, but she was a very strong person deep down.
Once she decided on something, it was difficult for others to change her mind.
He secretly scolded his son for being a bastard. He had torn down a good home and family. He has truly committed a terrible sin.
“Alright then. Right now, it was better to find Beicheng first before talking about the future.”
“Yes.” Shen Man nodded slightly.
Shen Man didn’t want to have too much contact with outsiders. After talking to Old Master Lu, she returned to her bedroom.
Old Master Lu came to the front hall.
Seeing Jiang Vining and Gu Zhanqing sitting on opposite ends of the sofa, the atmosphere was a little unharmonious.
He was a little puzzled.
However, Gu Zhanqing had already said that Yining was having a conflict with her family.
Therefore, he didn’t think too deeply about it.
Old Master Lu walked up to him happily and said, “Zhanqing, what happened just now was a misunderstanding. I’ve already dealt with those people at home.”
“Sorry for the trouble.” Gu Zhanqing said politely, then glanced at Jiang Yining, his heart full of schemes.
He would never allow Yining to marry into the Lu family.
However, she had never been one to be forced. The more she was forced, the more it would have the opposite effect.
He didn’t want to see things get out of hand in the end.
Therefore, if he couldn’t fight head-on, he would use a more covert method.
Wouldn’t it be fine if rhe Lu family gave up on her as their granddaughter-in-law?
“What are you talking about? We’re family now, so don’t stand on ceremony.” Old Master Lu was shocked by what had happened today, but he was still very steady when he did things. He said, “I’ve known you for so long and I’ve always thought that you’re a good person. Before this, I was regretting that I didn’t have a daughter at home to marry you. I didn’t expect rhe younger generation to fulfill my wish.”
Gu Zhanqing said calmly, “I didn’t expect it either.”
“In the past, we didn’t know that Yining’s family was the Gu family. Therefore, we did not prepare any betrothal gifts or wedding banquets. Now that we know, we can t miss our on any of these. Zhanqing, give me some rime to prepare. I’ll definitely let Yining marry into our Lu family in glory and not owe her anything.”
Old Master Lu had already planned to prepare for Lu Zhi and Jiang Yining’s wedding.
However, Lu Zhi kept saying that he was busy and that Yining was still in school, so it was nor appropriate to make these big plans.
It wouldn’t be too late to hold rhe wedding after she graduated.
Old Master Lu couldn’t forcefully interfere in rhe couple’s affairs, so he could only delay it.
But now…
Since the Gu family had come knocking, this matter could not be delayed.
He had to do it!
He wanted to let rhe whole world see that these two children were happy!
When Jiang Yining heard that the old man was going to hold a wedding, she frowned slightly.
She had no intention of announcing to everyone that she was married to Lu Zhi.
After all, she would be leaving after she found Lin Yan.
She had told Lu Zhi that she would only hold a simple wedding and invite a small number of guests from the Lu family.
“Grandpa, there’s no need to go through so much trouble, right?” Jiang Yining couldn’t help but ask.
“How is a marriage that only happens once in a lifetime troublesome?” Old Master Lu smiled and said, “Besides, if you find it troublesome, you don’t have to personally participate in the wedding preparations. 1 will arrange everything. At that time, you just have to be a beautiful bride and receive everyone’s blessings.”
Jiang Yining was speechless.
She had really shot herself in the foot. If she had known earlier, she would have communicated with Gu Zhanqing beforehand to prevent the situation from becoming so awkward.
Gu Zhanqing stared at Jiang Yining meaningfully for a moment and said, “Old Master, you’re right. The wedding must be held. I will also prepare well and cooperate with you.”
“Okay, then I’ll get someone to make a list of betrothal gifts and send it to your house for you to see. If there are no objections, we will follow the traditional rules for rhe wedding.” Old Master Lu said solemnly.
“Alright.” Gu Zhanqing agreed readily.
Jiang Yining pinched herself silently.
She was done for.
What should she do now? How was she going to explain this to Lu Zhi?
Old Master Lu and Gu Zhanqing got along very well.
After talking for two hours, he even asked Gu Zhanqing to stay at the Lu family’s house.
However, Gu Zhanqing said that he still had other things to deal with. Moreover, he already had a place to stay in A-City. It would be troublesome to move to the Lu family’s house again, so he tactfully refused.
Old Master Lu had no choice but to let him go.
Jiang Yining and Gu Zhanqing left the Lu family’s house together.
The smile on Gu Zhanqing’s face instantly disappeared without a trace.
Jiang Yining also looked at him coldly as if he was a stranger.
“I hope you won’t regret your decision today.” Gu Zhanqing warned before getting into the car.
Jiang Yining looked at him with disdain and said, “The thing I regret the most in my life is knowing you.”
With that, she jumped into the car without looking back.
The two cars drove in different directions..
