After being exposed by Lu Lixing, Lu Liting decided to not hold back. “Yes! That’s right. She is that kind of person. In the past when I had no money, she couldn’t bear the loneliness and decisively left me to be with a second-generation rich person. Then later married you for money. She personally admitted it to me herself that she married you for your money!”
“Yes, she obviously married me for my money. Do you know that back then after Shen Weiwei got injured, she sued her, then privately forced her to pay 20 million in compensation? Do you know that she couldn’t afford the 20 million compensation even with her entire family’s savings?”
“She deserved it!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“That’s why Grandpa told her that if she agreed to marry me to ward off my illness, he would help her with the 20 million. Lu Liting, you couldn’t have foolishly believed that Grandpa would give my entire family fortune to Ji Qingqing after my death, right?”
Lu Lixing continued to look at him with a serious face. “Do you think Ji Qingqing wasn’t aware of this and seriously believed that she could inherit all of Lu’s family’s fortune? She just had no choice. That’s why she was enticed by Grandpa to ward off my illness. She was merely a pawn of the plan. Grandpa understood all of this very well and feels guilty for doing this to Ji Qingqing. He has discussed this matter with me more than once. So long as I’m not willing to be together with Qingqing anymore, or if I don’t treat her well, by even the slightest bit, he will make Qingqing leave me. Then after Qingqing finds a boyfriend that she loves, he will marry her off in the name of his granddaughter, so she won’t be treated unfairly.”
Lu Lixing’s words made Lu Liting feel like he had been struck by thunder.
That time when Ji Qingqing showed off in front of him, she admitted frankly in an exaggerated manner that she was together with Lu Lixing for the money and also to inherit Lu’s family wealth. But now Lu Lixing is telling her that she married into the Lu family because of Grandpa’s enticement?
“You are saying… that Grandpa asked Ji Qingqing to marry you? But she told me clearly that she did it for your inheritance, and…”
“Lu Liting, am I the only rich man in this world? You need to know that she doesn’t have any feelings for me. Do you think that it’s hard for her to marry an outstanding guy who she loves, with her current appearance and ability? Why would she deliberately marry a man like me, whom she never met before?”
“I…” Lu Liting was speechless.
“I won’t deny the fact that Ji Qingqing sees money as important as her life. That’s because you’ve lived a comfortable life as a young master for too long and don’t know the hardships of life. It’s not just Ji Qingqing. Even I care about money. Will you also look down on me? Do you know that the Lu Corporation almost went bankrupt several times because our capital chain broke? Do you know about the financial crisis in which the stock markets were volatile and almost crashed? Just because you don’t lack money, you think no one in this world is in deep hot water. If you really cared about what happened that year, why don’t you go research about why Ji Qingqing broke up with you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLu Liting’s face had a weary expression on it. Why else did she break up with him? Clearly it’s because she wanted that second-generation rich person’s money!
Lu Lixing looked at Lu Liting severely. “Liting, you are my younger brother. I don’t mind the fact that Qingqing is your ex-girlfriend. In the future, even if you guys don’t live under the same roof, it’s inevitable that you guys will have some kind of interactions. Hence, I hope that you can change your attitude towards Qingqing. You are a man. Don’t always speak ill of your ex-girlfriend, especially when they are made up by you.”
Hadn’t Lu Liting not been his biological brother, he would not have the time and patience to tell him all of this.
“You couldn’t stand my attitude towards Shen Weiwei, then is your attitude toward Qingqing good? I hope I won’t hear that she’s a money-obsessed and profit-seeking woman coming from your mouth again. I also don’t want to see you speak or do something unreasonable to her in public settings. She’s my wife. Whatever attitude you treat her with is what you treat me with. Got it?”
Lu Liting subconsciously avoided Lu Lixing’s sharp eyes. He remained silent and his lips were pressed into a straight line.
Lu Lixing got up from the chair. He had said enough. If Lu Liting understood and made changes and compromises in the future, he will let all of this go. If Lu Liting doesn’t, he won’t let him off so easily next time.
“I have a flight at 2 in the afternoon. If you still care, go back more often to visit Grandpa. I’m not against you starting your own business, but there is a threshold for everything. Don’t make me ruin your shitty company.”
