Perhaps it was the effect of the alcohol that made Lu Li more daring. He glared at Lu Huai.
“What right do you have to care about me?” Lu Li said angrily. “Shouldn’t you be happy that I’ve embarrassed myself? So what if they are, you’ve never liked me or my mom.”
Lu Huai’s lips curled up slightly. “It’s true that I don’t like you guys. Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror? Which part of you is worthy of my liking?”
Lu Li’s pride was hit hard by Lu Huai’s words. He shouted, “You’re supposed to be my brother. Why are you helping that freaking b*tch, Pei Xin?! If it weren’t for you, I would have gotten Pei Xin by now. How dare she carry on with her life!?! Because of you! You willingly cooperated with her. I know you are involved in the production of the products. I know very well how capable Pei Xin is. Only you can contact that many farmers in a short period. What condition did Pei Xin agree to for you to go through so much trouble to help her? Is it true? Do you like her??! Do you know that Pei Xin used to be my girlfriend?!”
Lu Huai looked at him coldly. “You’re drunk, so I’ll let you off this time. Hurry up and go home. Don’t embarrass yourself here.”
Lu Li went ballistic. He shouted at Lu Huai, “Who are you to control me? Stop pretending to be a good person. I know you love it when you get to see me suffer.”
Lu Huai looked at Lu Li mockingly. “You decided to go to the bar. No one forced you to be there. I was told to pick you up because the police station called me. Does it look like I would be here if I didn’t receive a call from the police? Where are your parents? The ones that love you very much. Shouldn’t they be here instead of me?”
Lu Li was speechless.
“Your brother is here to pick you up,” one of the policemen urged Lu Li. “Stop being rebellious. Go back with your brother.”
Lu Li was too embarrassed to stay in the police station, so he left with Lu Huai.
Lu Huai drove two cars. He let Lu Li sit in one of them and asked the driver to send Lu Li home. He then drove another car directly to his villa.
Lu Huai had stopped living in the same villa as Lu Yu and the others a long time ago. Lu Huai would feel stifled looking at them if he stayed there every day.
Lu Huai had just learned from the police why Lu Li had been sent to the police station.
Lu Huai couldn’t believe that something like this would happen to Lu Li in a bar.
Was Lu Li a child? How could he act so impulsively and brainlessly?
Lu Huai thought about it and sent a message to Pei Xin.
He guessed that Pei Xin should be asleep by now, so he didn’t call to disturb her.
It wasn’t anything particularly important anyway.
Lu Huai wanted Pei Xin to see Lu Li’s true colors. He wanted her to see that Lu
Li was selfish and immature and that he wasn’t worthy of her.
Lu Huai felt that Pei Xin’s decision to leave Lu Li was the right one.
On the other hand, after Chen Gang was bailed out by his mother, he did not go home. Instead, he went straight to Ling Xue’s ward.
Ling Xue’s parents were not with her. Instead, there was a servant from the Pei family who was by her side.
Because Chen Gang had come to the hospital to visit Ling Xue before, the servant could recognize his face. When she saw Chen Gang, the servant took the initiative to stand up and greet him.
Chen Gang nodded. He lowered his voice in fear of waking Ling Xue up.
Chen Gang whispered to the servant, “I’ll keep watch for Ling Xue. I have something to tell her. I want to tell her as soon as she wakes up.”
The servant looked troubled. “But Mister Chen Gang, you’re a boy, and she’s a girl. She has a fiance. If the news of you staying overnight here gets out, I’m afraid it will affect Miss Ling Xue’s reputation.”
Chen Gang pursed his lips. He wanted to say that Ling Xue’s fiance, Lu Li, was not a good person. While Ling Xue was suffering here, Lu Li was out drinking with other women in the bar.
Such a fiance was not worthy of Ling Xue’s chastity.
However, Chen Gang couldn’t tell the servant the truth.
Ling Xue had always been beautiful to him. He could not allow Ling Xue to live the wrong way because Lu Li was not good enough for her. That would affect her reputation..
