The world is broken, the cubs mend it

The air fell silent for a moment. Lu Chengxing raised his head proudly and gave Lu Yuanyuan a provocative look.

If anyone dares to act rashly in his territory, he and this wild kid will be in great trouble.

Lu Zheng looked at the child with her head down and guessed that she probably didn't expect anyone to testify, and now she must be scared.

So he gently rubbed her head and looked up at Lu Chao.

"it's me……"

He had no problem admitting what he had done, but before he could finish his words, Yuanyuan suddenly looked up at Lu Chao and said, "Grandpa, Dad didn't splash him."

When these words came out, not only did Lu Chengxing glare at her, but he also thought she was shameless.

Even Lu Zheng didn't understand how she could still be so stubborn after being exposed?

But the child's protection of him made him feel warm from the bottom of his heart.

Lu Chao looked at his stubborn and pitiful granddaughter, then at Lu Chengxing who was already eight or nine years old, and he quickly made a decision in his heart.

"Yuanyuan is still young and doesn't understand anything. Why are you arguing with him? To put it another way, aren't you at fault?"

He knew in his heart who should be blamed more, but because of his previous debt to Lu Zheng, he tilted the scales towards the smaller one.

They deliberately ignored the truth and covered it up as a children's quarrel.

"dad?"

Lu Chengxing couldn't believe his ears. Wasn't this too much of a retreat? Even if he took a thousand steps back, he couldn't say that!

Even if he was wrong, so what? This is his home and the other two are outsiders.

"That's enough! Shut up and don't disturb your grandfather's rest."

Lu Chao interrupted what he was about to say next.

"..."

Lu Zheng felt extremely ironic when he heard these familiar words.

I was just trying to save face for him, not really favoring them father and daughter.

People only care about their reputation when dealing with outsiders.

Whenever there were conflicts between me and Lu Zheng in the past, my father always stood on my side.

This was the first time that Lu Chengxing had been treated so coldly and wronged, and he immediately lost his temper: "Dad, why are you so partial to this lying wild child?"

"Who are you calling a wild child?"

Lu Zheng suddenly sat up from the sofa, his tone full of oppression. It didn't take much to know who taught him to say this.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Yuanyuan is your niece!" Lu Chao pushed him, looked at Lu Zheng who had a bad face, and comforted him: "He is used to speaking without restraint, don't bother with him."

"Dad, I didn't..."

"That's enough! Shut up!" Lu Chao raised his hand and slapped him, shutting up the rest of his words: "Get back to the study and don't come out without my order."

Now Lu Chengxing didn't dare to speak anymore. He covered his face with his hands, heartbroken and ran away.

After years of fighting wits and courage with Lu Zheng, he was at a disadvantage for the first time.

And when Lu Zheng looked at the elderly Lu Chao, his heart was not disturbed at all.

Teaching the younger one a lesson first so that the older one doesn't have a chance to attack is just a common tactic used by adults and those who try to smooth things over.

The servant from upstairs ran down and whispered something in Lu Chao's ear. He glanced at Lu Zheng and hurried upstairs again.

The only people left in the living room were the servants and the father and daughter, each busy with their own business.

"Why did you lie just now?"

Lu Zheng lowered his eyes and looked at the child in his arms. Wrong was wrong, and he still needed to be educated.

"He bullied Dad, he deserved it..."

Yuanyuan looked up at his eyes. She said that because she was afraid that her father would be blamed.

"But if you did it, you did it. If you didn't do it, you didn't do it. You can't confuse right and wrong."

"Will grandpa beat you if he knows you threw water on him? Isn't grandpa's home also dad's home? I don't like them..."

Yuanyuan has a trauma in this regard. She has also seen her grandfather lose his temper with her father, and she can't help but worry.

"..."

Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and before he could say the words he was going to use to teach her a lesson, his eyes started to feel sore.

She lied only because she was worried about herself.

Even the children could see that he was aggrieved, but his parents deliberately turned a blind eye.

"Dad, I know lying is wrong, I won't tell you next time..."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yuanyuan slowly lowered her head and her voice became softer.

"It's good to understand that this is not right, but I don't blame you."

Lu Zheng rubbed her head, his eyes soft.

He felt that children were truly magical creatures. They were so small yet possessed infinite power and could always soothe his heart time and time again.

At first, he really felt that this world was shit and there was nothing worth staying in.

But now he feels really happy and wants to stay with his child and watch her grow up.

Mr. Lu felt unwell and vomited a lot after the long bumpy journey, so Lu Chao took care of him upstairs.

Lu Zheng also wanted to take his children up there to see his grandfather, but when he thought of that family, he felt that there was no need to go up and join in the fun, and it would not be too late to go later.

The chef in the kitchen has started preparing dinner.

The child was clamoring for milk, so Lu Zheng left her in the living room with the servants watching over her. He went to the kitchen to get her some hot milk and went to the bathroom at the same time.

"I haven't seen you for a few years. You have improved a lot. You can use children to deal with others."

Chen Yan followed him at some point and leaned against the corridor, looking at him with a sarcastic expression.

"Don't think that everyone is as hateful as you." Lu Zheng saw the look of disgust on her face.

She hasn't changed much in the past few years. She looks exquisite and gorgeous, but that can't hide her vicious heart.

"It's just that the old man wanted to see you, so he asked you to come back. There is no place for you in this family anymore.

Bringing back a wild child without a mother really brings shame to the Lu family."

Chen Yan sneered at him. Although Lu Zheng had not come back in the past few years, she did not believe that he was not thinking about the family property.

She knew Lu Chao very well. Although she seemed extremely disappointed with Lu Zheng, she still did not give up completely.

So she had to make Lu Chao completely disappointed in her and make Chengxing the only and best choice for the Lu family.

"What did you say?"

Lu Zheng lowered his eyes and looked at her, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

After so many years, this trick of deliberately provoking me is still not enough.

Chen Yan didn't expect him to be so indifferent. He has grown up and become mature. Now he makes people feel a sense of crisis.

"you……"

Before she could say anything, her body was suddenly pulled forward and directly into the utility room opposite the kitchen.

"You want to do..."

Chen Yan looked at him angrily, and suddenly her neck was tightly grasped by a pair of large hands, and all her words were strangled in her throat.

She didn't expect Lu Zheng to be so bold that he actually wanted to kill her.

"Cough cough cough..."

She slapped the back of Lu Zheng's hands frantically, and her whole body was lifted up, with her legs flapping weakly.

Lu Zheng looked at her face which was turning purple from holding back her feelings, with the corners of her lips curved in a sinister arc, like a Shura walking out of hell.

"You said if I strangle you to death now, what will Lu Chao do? Will he take me to court for you?

Or will you just give you a random cause of death and bury you hastily for the sake of the Lu family's future and reputation?"
