Chapter 100

Su Ci\'s gaze fell on his wrist, where he wore a steel bracelet watch that conveniently covered the spot where his life force should be visible. She couldn\'t see his life force.0

Su Ci withdrew her gaze.0

......0

That night, after finishing his scenes, Fu Baili returned to the Zhao family home, where everyone had already gone to bed.0

There was no food left on the dining table. Fu Baili self-deprecatingly curled his lips and made his way to his room in the dark.0

The door next to his opened.0

Light spilled out into the hallway as Zhao Youyou stood at the doorway. "Baili, you\'re back."0

"Were you waiting for me?" Fu Baili paused his hand on the doorknob.0

"Yes, I was worried about you since you came back so late."0

Fu Baili\'s cold expression softened as he approached Zhao Youyou. He kissed her forehead gently. "There were night scenes today."0

Zhao Youyou had heard earlier that Fu Baili was working as an extra.0

"Go to sleep. I need to pack a set of clothes and catch a bus to City A. There\'s a production there that needs extras. I\'ll be gone for three days." Fu Baili had promised the male extra he would go to City A with him.0

"How much will you earn?" Zhao Youyou bit her lip and asked.0

Fu Baili gently patted Zhao Youyou\'s hair and said, "The costs over there will be a bit higher, two hundred for two hundred days, three days will be six hundred."0

Zhao Youyou frowned deeply. She shook her head. "You shouldn\'t be like this. You shouldn\'t be living this kind of life, running around for just a few hundred dollars."0

In her memory, Fu Baili had always been unattainable, high above everyone else, a carefree and arrogant rich kid. He would never have cared about a few hundred dollars. When had he fallen so low as to become a background actor for just a hundred bucks?0

"Baili, go back to the Fu family. The Fu family\'s fortune is yours. You can\'t just give it away to someone else." Zhao Youyou couldn\'t accept Fu Baili\'s current state.0

"What\'s all this noise? Why aren\'t you asleep yet?"0

From across the hall, Zhao\'s father opened the door and saw Fu Baili and his daughter. His small eyes flashed with displeasure. "So the Fu young master is back. I was wondering who was still up so late. The Fu young master only needs to worry about eating and drinking, but we\'re different. We have work tomorrow."0

"I\'m just back to pack some things." Fu Baili entered his room and closed the door.0

"What\'s he saying? Is he leaving our house to go back to the Fu family?" Zhao\'s father asked his daughter.0

Zhao Youyou looked troubled.0

Then, she saw Fu Baili emerge from the room again, carrying a black backpack, and stride out without looking back. "Baili..."0

Fu Baili didn\'t turn around.0

"It\'s good if he\'s going back to the Fu family. Don\'t stop him," Zhao\'s father said, even considering going to see Fu Baili off and asking if he needed help finding a ride. It was late, and taxis were hard to come by.0

"He\'s not going back to the Fu family. He\'s going to work," Zhao Youyou said, her expression dimming as she heard the door close.0

Zhao\'s father looked at his daughter. "What kind of work?"0

Zhao Youyou bit her lip and whispered, "Extra work. A couple of hundred a day. He\'ll be gone for three days."0

"He\'s out of his mind. Leaving his position as the Fu family\'s young master to go be an extra? What a disgrace!" Zhao\'s father was furious. "Even if he goes back to the Fu family, they already have a new heir. The Fu family probably already considers Fu Baili useless and weak, which is why they gave up on him so easily."0

"I told you before. Without the Fu family\'s identity, he\'s just a good-for-nothing. Now you see it for yourself."0

"Dad..." Zhao Youyou couldn\'t refute her father\'s words.0

"Now your brother is the heir of the Lu family. Don\'t be so short-sighted and focus only on a useless man. Tomorrow, we\'ll go to the Lu family and get the money." With that, Zhao\'s father went back to his room to rest.0

Zhao Youyou was overwhelmed with mixed emotions.0

She liked Fu Baili, but she liked the old Fu Baili, the one who was high and mighty, not the one who had fallen so low as to become an extra.0

The next day, Zhao Youyou followed her father and mother to the Lu Group. Compared to their last visit to the Lu family, Zhao Youyou felt intimidated.0

"Dad, do you really think this plan will work?"0

Zhao\'s father was confident. "When dealing with big matters, you can\'t be timid. Just follow my lead."0

Zhao Youyou nodded and followed her father into the Lu Group\'s towering building. The luxurious and grand design of the lobby made her dizzy with awe. She was reminded once again of how wealthy the Lu family was.0

All of this would belong to her brother, Lu Zhe.0

Zhao Youyou regretted her decision. After being reborn, she shouldn\'t have tried to distance herself from Lu Zhe, to avoid his affections.0

If she had been nicer to him, if she had persuaded her parents not to kick him out of the Zhao family, Lu Zhe, with his character, would have doted on her like a princess, no less than any other wealthy daughter.0

Zhao Youyou regretted not seizing the opportunity of her rebirth.0

As they tried to enter, they were stopped by a security guard. "Please wait. Non-employees need to register at the front desk to enter."0

Unlike their previous visit, where they had been timid and unsure, this time, Zhao\'s father was full of confidence. "I\'m here to see your boss."0

The security guard remained expressionless. "Please register at the front desk."0

Unable to proceed, Zhao\'s father walked to the front desk.0

The receptionist was very polite. "Hello, sir and madam."0

Zhao\'s father directly stated, "Call your boss down. I need to speak with him."0

The receptionist was taken aback. She couldn\'t help but glance at the three of them, who didn\'t seem like clients with business. "Do you have an appointment with President Lu or Vice President Lu?"0

"No appointment necessary. I\'m the father of your Vice President Lu. Just tell him to come down." Zhao\'s father stood tall, his hands behind his back, as if inspecting his own property.0

The receptionist found this group rather bizarre. "I\'m sorry, but to meet President Lu or Vice President Lu, you need to make an appointment in advance or contact them directly."0

Zhao Youyou sensed the receptionist\'s strange look. Did working in a big group make even the employees look down on her and her family?0

"Could you please inform Vice President Lu that his sister and parents are waiting in the lobby?" Zhao Youyou suppressed her discomfort and politely asked the receptionist.0

Sister? Parents?0

Vice President Lu\'s parents were President Lu and Mrs. Lu, weren\'t they? How did these people suddenly appear?0

The receptionist dialed the assistant to Vice President Lu.0

After reporting the situation, she quickly received a reply. "I\'m sorry, Vice President Lu is very busy right now and can\'t meet you."0

In the phone call, the assistant had instructed the receptionist to ask these people to leave, which she had conveyed politely.0

"Did you make it clear who is looking for him?" Zhao\'s father was dissatisfied.0

The receptionist replied, "It has been made clear."0

Just as Zhao Youyou was about to say something, a melodious voice spoke up. "Hello, I\'m here to see Lu Zhe. Could you please inform him?"0

Zhao Youyou turned her head and saw Su Ci!0

What was she doing here?0

The receptionist was clearly stunned by the sudden appearance of the girl. She looked a bit dazed. "Please... wait a moment. May I ask your name, miss?"0

"Su Ci."0

The receptionist immediately made a phone call.0

On the other end, the assistant instructed her to ensure that Miss Su was well taken care of.0

After hanging up, the receptionist politely said, "Miss Su, please wait a moment."0

Su Ci nodded. "Thank you."0

She turned her head and met Zhao Youyou\'s astonished gaze.0

Glancing to the side, she saw Zhao\'s father and Zhao\'s mother as well.0

Su Ci had seen Zhao\'s father and Zhao\'s mother when she was a rabbit. At that time, Lu Zhe had gone to the Zhao family to pack his things, and the couple had argued with the other pair over the lottery ticket. She remembered them clearly.0

Were they also here to see Lu Zhe?0

When Zhao\'s father heard that this girl could go up, while they were about to be turned away, he struggled to suppress his anger and prepared to follow the girl up.0

Today, he couldn\'t have come for nothing.0

Not long after, the elevator doors opened, and a tall figure stepped out quickly, striding forward.0

The receptionist was astonished; she had never expected that Young Master Lu would come down personally to receive someone.0

The young man\'s figure was tall and slender. His clear and handsome face was calm, and he wore a well-fitted black suit that exuded an indescribable elegance and handsomeness.0

Zhao Youyou stared blankly at Lu Zhe approaching from across the room. Her heart suddenly raced. This Lu Zhe was different from the one she had known before.0

Unlike the sickly, haggard, and destitute Lu Zhe from her previous life, the Lu Zhe before her now had broad shoulders, a slim waist, and an outstanding aura. Any girl would find her legs turning to jelly at the sight of him.0

Zhao Youyou\'s face inexplicably flushed, and her heartbeat quickened with each beat.0

Su Ci stepped forward and was immediately pulled into Lu Zhe\'s embrace by his large hand. He lowered his head and asked her, "Why didn\'t you call me?"0

Su Ci gave a light hum, "Your phone was off."0

Lu Zhe hadn\'t paid attention to his phone\'s battery level. "I\'m sorry, my phone must have run out of battery."0

He reached out and held the girl\'s small hand, finding it warm, before letting go. "I\'ll take you upstairs."0

Lu Zhe didn\'t spare a single glance for the stunned Zhao family.0

Zhao Youyou saw that Lu Zhe ignored them completely but treated Su Ci with tenderness and care, showing no trace of his usual coldness.0

Lu Zhe was too biased.0

This blatant favoritism made Zhao Youyou\'s chest burn with jealousy, and her mouth felt bitter.0

Zhao\'s father and Zhao\'s mother were both shocked. They had never seen Lu Zhe dressed like this before, and his presence was now intimidating.0

Their impression of Lu Zhe was still stuck in the past, the one who endured their abuse, worked tirelessly, and lived in the storage room. The Lu Zhe who suffered from a terminal illness and was kicked out of their home.0

The Lu Zhe before them now, who seemed like a wealthy young master, was someone they had never seen before.0

While they were shocked, their hearts burned with greed. Lu Zhe was truly rich now.0

"Xiao Zhe, you\'re also studying in City B. Why don\'t you come home and visit your mom and dad?" Zhao\'s father completely forgot how he had turned and hid the last time he met Lu Zhe at the Lu Corporation, worried that Lu Zhe would come to his house and cause trouble.0

Lu Zhe glanced at Zhao\'s father and them but didn\'t respond, instead preparing to leave with Su Ci.0

"Yes, your dad often mentions you at home. You\'re our child, and there\'s no overnight grudge between family members. You found your birth parents, and you should have told us. We would only be happy for you." Zhao\'s mother sounded a bit resentful.0

Lu Zhe had become rich but kept it hidden. If it weren\'t for their daughter discovering his true identity, they might have never known Lu Zhe had become so wealthy.0

"You once said that I have no relation to you," Lu Zhe said coldly, "There\'s nothing to discuss."0

"How can there be no relation?" Zhao\'s father glared, "We raised you for over a decade. We can\'t have raised you for nothing."0

Since emotional appeals weren\'t working, they decided to cut to the chase.0

"We worked so hard to raise you. Without us, how could you have become the heir of the Lu family?" Zhao\'s father was confident, "You should compensate us for the money we spent on you."0

Lu Zhe looked at them.0

Zhao\'s father raised a finger, "Ten million, and a house. These are nothing to you."0

Su Ci thought she was shameless, but she hadn\'t expected someone even more shameless. Knowing Lu Zhe was the son of the Lu family, they came to demand a share. Tsk, dreaming of ten million?0

Lu Zhe\'s tone was calm: "In the Zhao family, I bought groceries, cooked, washed dishes, and did laundry. That labor is enough to offset the cost of the leftover meals I ate."0

Zhao Youyou bit her lip, feeling embarrassed.0

In the Zhao family, after she and her parents finished eating, whatever was left was what Lu Zhe ate.0

Su Ci knew Lu Zhe\'s life in the Zhao family wasn\'t good, but she hadn\'t expected it to be this bad.0

Her ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌‍gaze toward the Zhao family now carried a cold edge. They treated Lu Zhe as cheap labor?0

"You... you\'re lying," Zhao\'s mother felt guilty. It was her idea to make Lu Zhe eat leftovers, as she thought adopting him was a waste of rice money.0

"The money I earned from part-time jobs, you also took it. That money added up is enough to cover my living expenses." Lu Zhe used to take on part-time jobs during vacations, tutoring classmates, washing dishes in restaurant kitchens, handing out flyers—anything that could earn money, he didn\'t shy away from the hard work.0

Zhao\'s father denied it, "What proof do you have that we took your money? We raised you, so you should pay us alimony."0

With people like Zhao\'s father and Zhao\'s mother, who were shameless and would deny everything, there was no point in arguing with them.0

Su Ci\'s lips curved into a cold smile, "Ten million? And a house? You\'re extorting now. I can call the police anytime."0

“Little girl, this is our family matter. It\'s none of your business. I advise you not to meddle,” Zhao\'s father said unhappily.0

"She\'s my girlfriend. She can handle my affairs however she wants," Lu Zhe said, not allowing anyone to question Su Ci.0

Zhao Youyou\'s chest ached even more. The previous Lu Zhe, even when people looked at him strangely, gossiped about him, or insulted him, he never cared. But now, when Su Ci was scolded by her father, he immediately defended her.0

This Lu Zhe was too unfamiliar.0

"And, I\'m not part of your family," Lu Zhe looked at the Zhao family, "My name isn\'t on the Zhao family\'s household register."0

Zhao\'s father was filled with regret when he thought about this. If it weren\'t for his short-sighted wife, who was afraid Lu Zhe would share their family\'s wealth and had his name removed early, Lu Zhe would now be on the same household register as them.0

Seeing that Lu Zhe wasn\'t giving in, Zhao\'s father directly made a phone call.0

Soon, two reporters with cameras walked in.0

“Come over quickly, and take pictures of him,” Zhao\'s father called to the two reporters. “This is the son I raised with great effort. Now that he\'s found his wealthy birth parents, he\'s turned his back on us, disdainful of poverty and abandoning our family. You guys, take pictures of him and let everyone see what kind of person the heir of the Lu family really is.”0

Zhao\'s father had planned this in advance. If he couldn\'t get the money smoothly, he would use Lu Zhe\'s reputation to threaten him.0

Lu Zhe, now the son of a wealthy family, certainly wouldn\'t allow his reputation to be tarnished or have any stains.0

"Now our family is heavily in debt. I\'m asking him for some money, but this ungrateful son wants to drive us away," Zhao\'s mother acted out a heartfelt performance, pretending to wipe nonexistent tears, as if ready to throw a tantrum on the floor.0

Su Ci was speechless. The Zhao family thought they could get money just by calling reporters?0

Zhao Youyou stood behind her parents, biting her lip and not uttering a sound.0

Her silence indicated support for her parents\' actions.0

The reporters, having been paid, naturally would do their job. Moreover, this involved the heir of the Lu Corporation, which was a big scoop. The two reporters began snapping photos furiously.0

Zhao\'s father threatened Lu Zhe, "Now that there are reporters as witnesses, if you don\'t want this to blow up, give us the money quickly."0

Lu Zhe\'s expression was cold. He shielded Su Ci behind him, preventing the reporters from taking her photo. "Which newspaper are you from?"0

The reporters didn\'t answer, busy pressing the shutter.0

Zhao\'s father and Zhao\'s mother stood tall, feeling confident.0

Even Zhao Youyou spoke up: "Brother, just give the money to mom and dad. Otherwise, they really will get angry and have people report bad things about you, which will affect you."0

She didn\'t understand. Now that Lu Zhe was so rich, even if her parents had treated him poorly before, at least they had raised him. When the family was in trouble, he should help them out.0

Ten million and a house were nothing to Lu Zhe\'s current status.0

Su Ci laughed coldly. It seemed that although Zhao Youyou had been reborn, her brain hadn\'t.0

If it weren\'t for the male lead, Fu Baili, liking her, with Zhao Youyou\'s outlook on life and way of thinking, she wouldn\'t have been able to, as described in the book, marry into a wealthy family and live a happy life after her rebirth.0

Lu Zhe didn\'t waste words. He directly instructed the security guards to delete the photos from the reporters\' cameras and then had this group of people escorted out of the Lu Corporation building.0

"Hey, you can\'t do that..." The reporters tried to protect their cameras.0

Lu Zhe coldly looked at them, "Are you sure you want to go against the Lu family?"0

Since returning to the Lu family, Lu Zhe had been keeping a low profile. This was the first time he used his family\'s status to suppress someone.0

The two reporters were stunned, and the cameras in their hands were snatched away by the security guards.0

Zhao\'s father, Zhao\'s mother, and Zhao Youyou were restrained by other security guards, their hands pinned behind their backs. In front of these burly security guards, they couldn\'t struggle at all.0

Lu Zhe\'s tone was calm: "Throw them all out. They are not allowed to set foot in the Lu Corporation building ever again."0

"Yes, Young Master," the security guards responded, dragging the Zhao family and the two reporters out of the building.0

The Lu Corporation was located in the heart of the city, with many vehicles and pedestrians outside.0

A group of people was thrown out, and many stopped to watch the spectacle. Tsk, someone actually dared to cause trouble at the Lu Corporation. They must be out of their minds.0

Zhao\'s mother and Zhao\'s father cursed loudly outside the building, trying to rush in again, but a line of tall bodyguards stood at the entrance, making it impossible for them to enter.0

Su Ci watched the Zhao family, shivering in the cold wind outside the door, and her mood finally improved.0

"I\'ll take you upstairs," Lu Zhe said, not wanting those people to disturb her.0

Su Ci nodded and let him hold her hand.0

This was her first time visiting Lu Zhe\'s office. It was similar to her brother\'s office style—cold and simple, with black and minimalist decor.0

Lu Zhe told the girl to sit on the sofa, then instructed his assistant to bring in a cup of warm milk.0

Su Ci noticed that both of Lu Zhe\'s assistants were men.0

"Do you have a female secretary?" Su Ci took a few sips of milk, which was just the right temperature.0

The room was warm, and Lu Zhe sat down beside her. "No."0

"Good," Su Ci leaned closer to Lu Zhe. "I don\'t want any drama of a female secretary seducing the boss."0

Lu Zhe glanced at her, unable to resist pinching her smooth cheeks. "What are you thinking about?"0

Su Ci acted cute: "Thinking about you."0

Lu Zhe chuckled softly, amused by the sweet words from the girl. "Why did you suddenly come to the company to see me?"0

"I was bored and had nothing to do, so I came to bother you," Su Ci said softly, leaning against Lu Zhe. She wrapped her arms around his waist. "I\'m going to City A tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?"0

Lu Zhe thought for a moment. "To save someone?"0

Su Ci nodded. Lu Zhe was getting to know her better.0

Gently, Lu Zhe tucked the stray hairs behind her ear. "I\'ll go with you." He wouldn\'t let her act alone.0

Su Ci smiled. "Okay."0

The girl\'s hands were like restless little rabbits, moving everywhere. After just a moment of holding him, her hands slipped under Lu Zhe\'s suit jacket.0

Through the thin white shirt, her hands roamed freely.0

Su Ci could feel the muscles under her palms tighten instantly. They were firm, and through the thin shirt, she could make out the contours of his muscles.0

"Tuan Tuan," Lu Zhe\'s voice darkened, trying to stop the girl\'s restless hands.0

Su Ci heard the warning in Lu Zhe\'s tone, but she was bold and not one to listen. Her hands continued their mischief, and she complained, "That night, I didn\'t get to touch you properly."0

She felt like she had missed out and wanted to make up for it now, while no one was around.0

Lu Zhe was both amused and helpless.0

The girl\'s hands were not only fair and beautiful but also soft as silk. With such soft hands touching him everywhere, Lu Zhe felt his muscles tighten painfully.0

He leaned down and whispered softly in her ear, "Tuan Tuan, there\'s a restroom in the office. Do you want me to take you in and take off my jacket so you can see properly?"0

Su Ci\'s eyes lit up instantly. "Yes!"0

Lu Zhe\'s lips curved, and his dark eyes filled with laughter. "Alright."0

He picked her up and walked toward the restroom.0

Su Ci didn\'t hold back. Not only did she make Lu Zhe take off his jacket, but she also unbuttoned his shirt, wanting to touch him without any barriers.0

The young man\'s lean muscles were stunning. Su Ci was like a little rascal, staring without blinking, making Lu Zhe\'s ears turn red.0

After a few rounds of touching, the little rascal was pinned down by Lu Zhe.0

Lu Zhe\'s lips were as cold as ever but soft. Su Ci greedily licked them, and what followed was a fierce kiss.0

She remembered the last time, it had been quite enjoyable. So when she felt Lu Zhe\'s reaction, Su Ci smiled mischievously, her gaze deliberately sweeping downward.0

Lu Zhe\'s eyes darkened, filled with desire. His breathing grew heavier. "There are no condoms here. We can\'t do this." He was trying his best to suppress his desires, despite the aching need in his body.0

He had been too reckless.0

"I have some," Su Ci said, her eyes narrowing mischievously. Her lips were kissed red, and her hair was a mess. She looked like a seductive little temptress.0

Lu Zhe was momentarily stunned.0

"From last time. I left them in my bag," she explained.0

Lu Zhe remembered the first time, when the girl had pulled out a variety of boxes from her bag. He couldn\'t help but chuckle. "Sorry, I\'ll make sure to carry them with me next time."0

He had little experience in this area, but he couldn\'t keep relying on her to prepare these things.0

Feeling the rapid and bold change in the young man\'s body, Su Ci blushed slightly, remembering how her legs had turned to jelly last time.0

She pushed against Lu Zhe, reminding him, "I still need to go home for dinner later." He couldn\'t get too carried away.0

"Okay," Lu Zhe replied, already lost in the softness.0

Su Ci hummed softly, teasing him deliberately and wriggling her body. "You don\'t need to work anymore? Maybe I should wait until you\'re done... Ah."0

Su Ci felt a surge of sensitivity.0n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Lu Zhe lowered his head, his arm muscles clearly defined as he propped himself up. He almost growled, "You asked for it!"0

Outside the door, the Zhao family, thrown out, was seething with anger, cursing loudly at the building.0

At that moment, someone stopped at the entrance.0

"What are you causing a scene for?" Lu Chen was surrounded by a group of bodyguards.0

The security guards at the door spoke in unison, respectfully: "Mr. Lu."0

Mr. Lu?0

Zhao\'s father and Zhao\'s mother were shocked. They turned around and saw the man with features somewhat similar to Lu Zhe. Was this Lu Zhe\'s father?0

Zhao Youyou had seen Lu Chen at the school\'s welcome party. Now, up close, she thought Lu Zhe looked even more like him.0

Zhao\'s father tried to calm down, no longer as arrogant as he had been in front of Lu Zhe. He swallowed hard and extended his hand toward Lu Chen. "Mr. Lu, hello. We are Lu Zhe\'s foster parents, and this is Lu Zhe\'s sister. Nice to meet you."0

Lu Chen raised an eyebrow, glancing at Zhao\'s father\'s hand with disdain before looking away.0

"You\'re causing trouble at my company?" Lu Chen said lazily.0

Zhao\'s father awkwardly retracted his hand. "Not causing trouble. We just wanted to see Lu Zhe and talk about something. But we were thrown out by these security guards. However, we can talk to you, Mr. Lu."0

"Yes, yes," Zhao\'s mother chimed in, meekly agreeing with her husband\'s words. She didn\'t dare to speak up in front of Lu Chen.0

"Talk to me?" Lu Chen sneered. "What kind of identity do you have to talk to me?"0

Lu Chen was always arrogant, giving no face to anyone. Except for Wen Ya, no one could control him.0

Zhao\'s father and Zhao\'s mother were utterly embarrassed, and even Zhao Youyou\'s face turned pale.0

"Go ahead, let\'s hear your nonsense," Lu Chen said condescendingly.0

Zhao\'s father forced a smile, trying to flatter Lu Chen. "Well, we think we treated Lu Zhe well. We raised him with great effort. Now that our situation is bad, we want to..."0

Lu Chen raised an eyebrow, his peach blossom eyes filled with mockery. "You want money?"0

Zhao\'s father\'s breath caught.0

Lu Chen\'s peach blossom eyes showed a cold glint. He sneered. "How much?"0

Zhao\'s father saw hope and said with a smile, "Not much. We only want ten million and a house."0

Lu Chen\'s peach blossom eyes turned sharp and fierce. He laughed coldly and asked his assistant, "How much does it cost to raise a child in a family like theirs?"0

The assistant replied quickly, "From elementary to middle school is nine years of compulsory education. High school tuition was paid by the young master himself. The Zhao family didn\'t contribute a penny. So, the expenses would only be for food and clothing, not exceeding one hundred thousand."0

Lu Chen stroked his chin. "Let\'s say one hundred thousand. You want ten million? Are you crazy? I don\'t mind having someone send you to a mental hospital."0

Lu Chen was a businessman, how could he possibly make a losing deal or be swindled out of money?0

"Lu Zhe is the heir of the Lu family, how could he only be worth one hundred thousand?" Zhao\'s father was unwilling.0

Lu Chen sneered, "Not satisfied? Then forget it."0

He looked at Zhao\'s father with his smiling peach blossom eyes, "I\'m different from my son. Maybe he grew up in your family and would show mercy to you, but I certainly won\'t."0

Zhao\'s father and Zhao\'s mother were stunned, feeling a chill down their spines under his gaze, yet they still didn\'t give up, "If you don\'t pay up, I\'ll let the whole country see what a stingy face the Lu family has."0

The smile on Lu Chen\'s lips disappeared, "Do you know? It\'s very easy to kill someone, to make someone disappear without a trace. But, those things aren\'t fun."0

Zhao Youyou felt a chill run down her spine. The next second, she heard Lu Zhe\'s father say, "I prefer to watch someone slowly fall into despair, powerless, crying and begging for mercy."0

Zhao\'s father and Zhao\'s mother were instantly scared and their legs went weak.0

Lu Chen\'s words made people tremble, "Eggs trying to smash jade? Truly courting death. Get out."0

Last time he heard his wife complain about the Zhao family\'s greed, he had already taken note. This time the Zhao family came to his door, he wouldn\'t be as considerate as his wife or son. Whoever made him uncomfortable, he would deal with them. Especially those who made his wife uncomfortable, they deserved to die ten times over.0

Zhao\'s father wanted to speak again, but was pulled back by Zhao Youyou, "Dad, don\'t say anything, let\'s go."0

Their family had no ability to deal with the Lu family, their biggest leverage was the nurturing grace towards Lu Zhe, but if the other party didn\'t care about it, they were nothing.0

Zhao Youyou sensitively felt that Lu Zhe\'s father wasn\'t joking, he really would deal with their family.0

Zhao\'s father was pulled away by Zhao Youyou, while Zhao\'s mother was trembling, not daring to make a sound, and quickly followed them out.0

Lu Chen found it extremely boring. He instructed his assistant, "Play with them slowly, make sure this family can\'t stay in City B, and never appear in front of my wife and son again."0

The assistant had been with Lu Chen for many years, he quickly responded, "Yes, Mr. Lu."
