Chapter 459 - The Lu Family Collapsed
Chapter 459 - The Lu Family Collapsed
Jiang Rui was acquitted. Before everyone knew what happened, news had come that the Lu family had been sealed up.
Then it was revealed that Lu Tao had something to do with the death of both his cousin and grandpa.
When everyone was understanding this news, a ten-year-old child appeared and said that he was Lu Tao’s son, but his mother was killed by Lu Tao.
As the public were overwhelmed by the waves of news, Chen Chen was looking at Jiang Rui with a meaningful look.
“Come here.” Jiang Rui waved at her. “Why do you sit so far away from me?”
The man just took a shower, with a faint smell of soap. Chen Chen threw herself into his arms. “Brother Xiao Rui…”
“What’s wrong?” Jiang Rui pinched her ears. He hadn’t hugged his lady for several days. He missed her very much.
Chen Chen looked up and said with compassion in her eyes, “It’s pitiful to be your enemy. They could be always killed somehow.”
When Lu Tao played tricks on the Lu family, all his actions had been in the control of Jiang Rui. What Jiang Rui had planned vividly indicated the saying: “To covet gains ahead without being aware of danger behind.”
“He’s so stupid.” Jiang Rui smiled. “What is happening in the capital, whether great or petty, can’t be unknown to me as long as I want to know.”
Chen Chen gave him a mean look. “So you are so scary!”
“What are you afraid of?” Jiang Rui patted her on the head. “Silly girl, the more powerful I am, the more people dare not bully you. Otherwise, your dad and your brother won’t allow me to marry you!”
“By the way!” Chen Chen sat up suddenly. “Scar said that Han Xueying was pregnant. Now Lu Tao has been arrested. What about her?
Jiang Rui sneered. “I sent her to Bai Weirong.”
“Oh my God!” Chen Chen covered her mouth. “You are too bad.”
Could Han Xueying survive…?
Han Xueying was still alive and well.
She had moved to Lu Tao’s villa long ago, and when the police came to seal up her house, she ran away with all her belongings. However, her car was stopped halfway and she had been blindfolded before she could see who it was.
The car moved on. After a seemingly long time, someone took off her blindfold.
The dazzling lights made Han Xueying squint. She found herself standing in a hall. According to the exquisite decoration, the large area and the building’s height, she felt that it should be a villa.
“Miss Han!” A chubby middle-aged woman greeted her politely.
“Who are you? Where am I?” Han Xueying stepped back, covering her stomach.
The middle-aged woman looked at her with a gentle smile. “Don’t be afraid. Now it’s messy outside, and you can live here at ease to take good care of your baby. When you gave birth to your child, it will be the only heir to the Lu family.”
“Are you sent from Lu Tao?” Han Xueying asked happily, “Did he ask you to take care of me?”
“Miss Han can call me Aunt Zhang!” She nodded at two men at the door and said, “Hurry up and take Miss Han’s luggage upstairs.”
After hearing this, Han Xueying was relieved. She was very grateful to Lu Tao. This man was really nice, who actually arranged a retreat for her. She really hoped that he could be released soon.
Aunt Zhang saw her relax and brought her a glass of milk. “I will stay here to take care of Miss Han for the next six months. Please don’t hang out for your child’s sake. Or if you are caught by some bad guys, which was harmful to the Lu family.
“Don’t worry!” Han Xueying waved her hand. “I know. I care more about this child than you do.” She felt her belly and suddenly remembered something. “Didn’t you say that Lu Tao and his two uncles have illegitimate children outside? Are they against me?”
Aunt Zhang smiled. “Miss Han, don’t worry. They are too busy with their own affairs now. Besides, illegitimate children are not eligible to inherit the Lu family.”
“That’s great!” Han Xueying stood up. “Cook something for me. I’ll take a bath!” She looked up and ordered Aunt Zhang. Seeing Aunt Zhang respectfully obeying her, she went upstairs in a good mood.
But she couldn’t see that behind her back, Aunt Zhang was looking at her, as if seeing a dead person…
“Boss, Lu Tao will be sentenced to death, while his two uncles will also stay there for ten years after Mr. Bai took action.” Bear told Jiang Rui the inside news.
Jiang Rui leaned on the chair; he looked calm, as if the result was as expected. “Lu Tao should never have been associated with terrorists, which could not be tolerated by Mr. Bai.”
Like Jiang Min, he could furiously fight with his opponents within the country, but he must not collude with the opponent of his country. This country was protected by them with their lives, and no one could be allowed to undermine its stability and unity.
“Also, Han Xueying was arranged by Bai Weirong to live in the Bai family’s villa in the suburbs.”
“Didn’t she show up?”
Bear shook his head. “It seems that Han Xueying doesn’t know she was caught by Bai Weirong.”
“Good.” Jiang Rui curled his lip. “Finally, she’s smart this time.”
Bear frowned and asked, “What does the woman want to do?”
“She wants the Lu family.” Jiang Rui stood up. “Han Xueying is pregnant with the child of Lu Tao. If they are all dead, then this child…”
“Ah!” Bear suddenly understood. “Kill the mother and get the kid!”
Jiang Rui nodded and picked up the key to car. “So I said she was smart this time.”
On the way home, Jiang Rui called Jiang Min.
“Grandpa, how is she doing?”
Jiang Min seemed to be in a good mood. “She’s fine, just losing her temper occasionally. I keep a close watch on her so that she can’t go out, just walking around in the yard at most.”
“That’s good.” Jiang Rui paused and said, “The Bai Family wants to capture the Lu Family.”
“Oh?” Jiang Min sneered. “The child growing in Han Xueying’s belly is a good chip.”
Jiang Rui said, “How could Bai Weirong be smart enough to consider killing the mother and getting the kid? She would definitely kill the mother together with the kid.”
“You’re right. This is definitely Mr. Bai’s idea.” Jiang Min said, “If Bai Weirong gets the kid, who would know that it was not her own child after a dozen years?” Jiang Min could not help but curse the old Master of the Bai family.
Jiang Rui said with a smile, “Rest assured, I won’t let the Bai family get what they want so easily. This is a game in the control of me. If they want to get benefits for nothing, they also have to get my permission!”
“Well…” Jiang Min said awkwardly, “Don’t go too far. The old man of the Bai family may be spending his last few days, and don’t leave him die with an everlasting regret.”
“Haha! Don’t worry, Grandpa. I can handle that.” Jiang Rui hung up the phone and drove directly to the hotel. Today Zhou Yiyun underwent the first microdermabrasion, and Scar and Xin Qing wanted to congratulate her.
When he arrived, Scar was standing in the doorway in a daze.
“What happened?”
As soon as Scar saw him, his eyes lit up. “Boss, what should I do? Yiyun still didn’t agree.”
“Did she drive you away and tell you not to come for her?” Jiang Rui asked.
“No…” Scar shook his head. “But she always refuses me.”
Jiang Rui glanced at her. “Take your time. Going after a woman, you must be patient.”
Just then, Chen Chen heard his voice and shouted inside. “Brother Xiao Rui? Is it you?”
“It’s me!” Jiang Rui responded and walked in, and Scar followed him frustratedly.
The moment Zhou Yiyun saw him, she still got very nervous and was eager to stand up. “Chief Jiang!”
“What are you doing?” Chen Chen glared at her with dissatisfaction. “Why are you so polite to friends?”
Jiang Rui smiled and said, “Liuliu is right. Don’t be so polite, and just call me by my name.”
“Haha!” Zhou Yiyun also laughed. “I’m not used to that for the time being.”
Scar came over and said, “You can call “Boss” just like me. You should get used to it in the future!”
“Haha.” Zhou Yiyun pretended to smile at him and looked down at the menu.
Chen Chen rolled her eyes and got close to Jiang Rui. “Brother Xiao Rui, I want to help Scar take a leave of absence!”
“Huh?” Jiang Rui pinched her face. “What are you going to do?”
“Look at Yiyun’s face.” Chen Chen pointed at Zhou Yiyun.
There was still a deep cut on Zhou Yiyun’s left face, but it was much better than before, looking less terrible.
“Today, the doctor said that foreign technology was better than domestic technology, and going abroad for the plastic surgery could be more likely to help Yiyun completely recover.” Chen Chen curled her lip. “The medicine made by Hua Tuo and me couldn’t make her face fully recover, and the effect was also too slow.”
Jiang Rui glanced at Scar. “Are you going to accompany her abroad for treatment?”
“Yeah.” Scar nodded.
Zhou Yiyun hurried to wave her hand. “I don’t need you to accompany me. I will go abroad by myself.”
“Okay.” Jiang Rui nodded. “Let Xiao Si make arrangements for you.”
Chen Chen clapped her hands happily. Zhou Yiyun was about to say something else, but she kept her mouth shut after Jiang Rui glanced at her.
The two women didn’t know that it was very dangerous for Scar to go abroad alone. He was also on the terrorists’ list of dominant opponents, so Jiang Rui asked Xiao Si to make arrangements.
Three days later, Scar left with Zhou Yiyun.
Scar persuaded Zhou Yiyun’s agent to let Zhou Yiyun go abroad alone, without any even assistant. When Chen Chen sent them to the airport, she joked that they were going on their honeymoon.
In mid-July, it’s about the summer vacation. Chen Chen discussed with Tuan Zi about going to Disneyland in Harbour City. Unfortunately, Xie Hong must be busy with her business, so that Wen Zeyu would be taken care of by Chen Chen.
Ah Zi had planned to go with them, but when Chen Chen was talking to her on the phone the day before departure, she heard Ah Zi say: “Oops! I’m going to pee”. Then a thud came, followed by Bear’s cry of terror.
Jiang Rui drove Chen Chen to the hospital and saw Bear standing in the doorway like a fool.
“What’s wrong with Ah Zi?” Chen Chen was frightened by his expression, with her voice trembling.
Bear raised his head, and Chen Chen saw he look green, bursting into tears. “Ah, Ah Zi… What happened to Ah Zi?”
“Come on.” Jiang Rui gave Bear a kick.
Bear stammered, “Pre-Pregnant.”
Bang! Chen Chen also gave him a kick.
Then Ah Zi came out of the clinic with a chicken paw in her mouth.
“Hi! Why are you here, Chen Chen?”
Chen Chen said angrily, “What do you think? Your pregnancy is so scary. What did the doctor say?”
“Just a month!” Ah Zi knocked on her belly, and Bear quickly grabbed her hand. “Be careful, sweetheart. It’s my son inside!”
Everything seemed to be going well. This summer was a particularly exciting one. When they returned from Disneyland, Chen Chen remembered that it was time to call Zhou Yiyun.
