Marrying into a rich family again, the road to becoming a partner

"What's wrong?" Seeing her son's reaction, Xu Peirong also became nervous, "Is there something wrong with Le Yun?"

“It’s William Lu who asked to see me.” Lu Yin stood up and picked up his coat, “Mom, I’ll go over now, don’t worry, I can handle it.”

After saying that, he opened the door and was about to go out.

"and many more--"

Xu Peirong stopped him:

“I suggest you go and explain to Lu Zhenting about William Lu’s matter.”

A trace of hesitation flashed across Lu Yin's expression.

Xu Peirong approached him, gently grabbed his arm, and said earnestly:

"After all, William Lu is his son. Our position is both embarrassing and delicate. If we don't handle it well, it will be self-defeating. You understand what I mean."

Lu Yin nodded:

"Don't worry, Mom, I know what to do."

After saying that, he drove away from home.

Lu Yin drove to Shengxin Hospital first.

After Lu Zhenting learned about Lu William's situation, he insisted on going with Lu Yin.

"Don't worry," Lu Zhenting said anxiously, "There is nothing wrong with my health."

"Let's do this," Lu Yin thought for a while, "I'll ask the doctor for his opinion. If the doctor allows it, I can take you there."

Lu Yin came to the office and communicated with the attending doctor.

Fifteen minutes later, Lu Zhenting sat in the back seat of his son's car for the first time and sped away to the police station with Lu Yin.

The door of the interrogation room was pushed open, and to everyone's surprise, not only Lu Yin, but also Lu Zhenting appeared at the door.

In the eyes of everyone, he is not the successful entrepreneur who dominated the business world and brought Yaxinda to the top.The sad expression on his face, his haggard expression, and even his body that had begun to look rickety due to illness, all showed that he was just an old father who was in his dying years and worried about his children.

"William," as soon as he opened his mouth, his voice couldn't help but choked up.

“Dad?!” William Lu had no idea that his father, who had been in a coma, would miraculously appear in front of him at this moment.

If it weren't for the uncontrollable pain in his heart, which was like a needle piercing him deeply with every breath he took, he would almost think that this was a dream.

"William, Lu Yin has told me everything about you." Lu Zhenting looked at his haggard son in front of him and felt so distressed for the first time.

He suddenly realized that he couldn’t remember the last time he had a good chat with William Lu.

For some reason, a fragment suddenly flashed through his mind:

One night 20 years ago, he came home after a day's work.

When she opened the door, her wife was sitting on the sofa, lost in thought. In her hand, she held an open bottle of vodka.She didn't know what she was thinking and didn't seem to notice his appearance.

She put the bottle to her mouth, raised her head and took a sip.

The expression on her face felt strange to him.Looking at the past 20 years later, at this moment, he finally understood the loneliness and sadness in his wife's eyes.

He walked towards her, and the sound of his footsteps made her raise her head.

"You're back," her eyes flashed with obvious panic. She quickly put the wine glass behind her and moved her body to block it.

"Ah."

"I...can't sleep, sit here for a while." She concealed her words, her hands unnaturally holding the broken hair on her forehead.

"It's very late, go to bed early." Lu Zhenting walked towards the bedroom. Before leaving, he looked at the corner of the sofa where the wine was hidden with disgust and disgust.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhenting felt guilty and heartbroken.

He has always felt that his marriage to his wife was just a combination of the interests of two families and a complete tragedy.He thought that by abiding by his responsibilities to the family, having children with her, working hard to make money, and giving them a good life, he had done his utmost benevolence.

Now I look so hateful and ridiculous.He couldn't imagine how many nights when he was not at home, his wife would use alcohol to numb and soothe herself.How many times had she had such a look of despair on her face.

The sin is heavy.

He now feels that there is no better way to describe himself than these four words.

In this life, he has failed everyone around him.

The man has passed away, and now, the first thing he has to do is to save his son.

"William," he begged him again, "agree to the prosecution attorney's terms and accept the plea deal, okay?"

For the first time, William Lu heard his father, who had always been indifferent to him, pleading with him in such a tone that could almost be regarded as "condescending".

Like a snowman near a stove, he felt the ice inside him begin to melt.At that moment, he finally saw his heart clearly. His hatred and anger were all because he wanted the love and recognition from his father too much.

"Dad," as soon as he said these two words, tears began to gather in his eyes quickly. He took a deep breath, trying to suppress them and not letting them fall.

After he finally swallowed the cotton stuck in his throat, he spoke again:

"Dad, you know, this is wrong."

"I understand that you want to protect your girlfriend, but have you ever thought about it, Dad doesn't have many days left. I may not be able to wait until you come out of prison. Don't you want Dad to die without you by your side?"

Lu Zhenting's voice trembled:

"Besides, you are still so young, are you going to give up your future so easily?"

“Dad, I can’t, I can’t betray her.” William Lu shook his head repeatedly.

"This cannot be considered a betrayal, William," Lu Zhenting advised, "After all, she was the one who committed the murder."

“She killed people to save me!” William Lu became excited and his voice suddenly became louder, “The reason why we are there is all because of me!”

"So you will also bear corresponding responsibilities. You will be sentenced for burglary. You may even have a criminal record, which will affect your future future. You may also..."

"Dad," William Lu interrupted him. He paused, and then said seriously, "Dad, I love her. I will never betray her."
