As soon as Uncle Lu finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on Allen Chu.

Zhu Zhaoqiang's expression remained unchanged, and he even took out a cigarette from his pocket. Seeing this, Mother Lu immediately took out an ashtray and handed it to Zhu Zhaoqiang.

Zhu Zhaoqiang nodded slightly, took another puff of his cigarette, and then said, "Hey, Old Yu, when did I say that Miss Mingjun said something wrong?"

Without waiting for Uncle Lu to speak, Zhu Zhaoqiang flicked the ash from his cigarette and said, "Isn't it that I am just praising her for her eloquence? Being a lawyer requires eloquence!"

Uncle Lu also understood Zhu Zhaoqiang's intention to shirk responsibility, but there were some things that he, Zhu Zhaoqiang, could not avoid mentioning just because he did not want to!

So, he nodded and said in agreement, "Yes, as a lawyer, the most important thing is that you have to abide by the law and reason! Look, her mother said that she spent one million of your money. We are also wondering, what did this child do to spend one million!"

Zhu Zhaoqiang smiled softly when he heard this. His voice sounded so hypocritical in the smoke:

"Old Yu, this is all because Qinfang is too polite! From the moment she brought Mingjun into this house, this girl is my Zhu Zhaoqiang's daughter! It is only natural to spend money on her, there is really no need to settle the bill!"

Aunt Lu was so angry when she heard this that she yelled, "You two should stop pretending to be so high and mighty here! Lu Mingjun has 500,000 yuan in compensation from her father, and a house left by her father. Why should she spend your money? Stop flattering yourself!"

Zhu Zhaoqiang, however, remained unmoved. He smoked a cigarette while looking at the furious Aunt Lu, as if he was just watching a play that had nothing to do with him.

Seeing this, Aunt Lu was even more furious. She continued, "For so many years, Zhou Qinfang didn't work. With your salary of three or four thousand yuan a month, Zhu Zhaoqiang said that you spent one million to support our emperor? Tell it to everyone, will anyone believe it? Really, don't make people laugh!"

"And you, Zhou Qinfang!" Seeing Zhu Zhaoqiang's fearless look, Aunt Lu immediately turned to Mother Lu and pointed her right hand at Mother Lu's face.

"You shameless bastard, you want to support the Zhu family and spend your Zhou family's money! Why do you spend our Lu family's money to support the Zhu family and dare to wrong our Lu family's daughter! Don't forget that the daughter who crawled out of your intestines back then was named Lu, not Zhu!"

Zhou Qinfang was so embarrassed by Aunt Lu's words that her face turned red:

"Bullshit! Old Lu is dead, the compensation money and the house are mine, I can spend them however I like, it's your turn to say anything here! I tell you, after I die, it will be Lu Mingjun's turn to talk about the house and the money!"

Upon hearing this, Aunt Lu immediately caught the loophole in Mother Lu's words and quickly asked, "What's going on? Are you admitting that you used our Lu family's money to spend on Mr. Zhu?"

Mother Lu wanted to say something, but Zhu Zhaoqiang waved his hand and Mother Lu immediately fell silent.

Zhu Zhaoqiang then put out the cigarette in his hand, and then said to Uncle Lu: "Mingjun is a sensible girl. We didn't worry about her at all when she was raised to this age! Of course, we don't plan to ask the child for anything in return. Therefore, it is meaningless to discuss whether to spend money or how much money to spend!"

After saying that, Zhu Zhaoqiang glanced at Lu Mingjun again and continued, "Mingjun, you can disown me as your uncle, but over the years, I have at least provided you and your mother with a place to shelter from the wind and rain!"

At this point, Zhu Zhaoqiang showed a distressed expression: "Even if you consider this relationship, you shouldn't bring your aunt and uncle to my house to cause trouble, right?"

Aunt Lu's face changed drastically when she heard this. She immediately stood up and pointed at Zhu Zhaoqiang, saying, "Mr. Zhu, you are simply..."

Lu Mingjun stood up immediately, and before Aunt Lu could say anything, he said, "Thank you Uncle Zhu for allowing me to live on your balcony for so many years; and thank you Uncle Zhu for agreeing to lend me money for my studies if I wrote a promissory note..."

Lu Mingjun hadn't finished her words, but her tone was already full of sarcasm and alienation.

She paused, took a deep breath, and continued, "Well, I've graduated, and it's time to pay off my debts."

"It's just that I just graduated and I don't have much money. I was worried, and then I remembered that my father had an inheritance! I thought, I should use the part of my father's inheritance that I should inherit to return it to you!" Lu Mingjun said, looking straight at Zhu Zhaoqiang without any fear.

"As for the 'trouble' you mentioned, my aunt and uncle were just here to bear witness for me. I don't know how, but when it came to you, it became a disturbance."

After hearing this, Aunt Lu showed the same pained expression as Zhu Zhaoqiang, looked at Mother Lu, and said, "It's ok that you let your biological daughter sleep on the balcony, but you actually asked her to write an IOU! Those who know about this will say that you are mother and daughter; those who don't know will say that you are a vicious stepmother, and no one will doubt it!"

Uncle Lu also looked at Zhu Zhaoqiang with disapproval and said, "Zhaoqiang, this is your fault! Since there is an IOU, just take it out and settle the account. Why bother saying so many high-sounding words!"

Zhu Zhaoqiang didn't rush to explain after hearing this. Instead, he swept his sinister eyes over everyone, and finally stopped his gaze on Lu Mingjun.

Zhu Zhaoqiang just looked at the girl in front of him as if he was meeting his stepdaughter for the first time.

Uncle Lu looked at Zhu Zhaoqiang like this and burst into laughter:

"Old Zhu, hurry up and get the IOU that Mingjun wrote to you, so that you can settle your scores!"

Aunt Lu also added: "Qinfang, you should also prepare the 500,000 yuan, including the principal and interest! We are not unreasonable people. When the time comes, you and Mingjun will each take half!"

"Oh, by the way!" Aunt Lu ignored Mother Lu's increasingly dark face and added, "And my brother's house. I heard that you rented it out over the years. Prepare the rent! Don't worry, you also get half. We will never favor our niece. We will definitely give you your share!"

But Zhu Zhaoqiang stood up and said, "I didn't know that Qinfang asked Mingjun to write the IOU, and I haven't taken over Lao Lu's inheritance. I won't be involved in what happens next!"

However, when Zhu Zhaoqiang was about to return to his room, he turned around and said to Lu Mingjun:

"Mingjun, don't forget that your aunt invited you to dinner!"

Hearing this, Lu Mingjun nodded calmly. But in her heart, she was thinking, that day was so important, how could she forget it?

Zhu Zhaoqiang then smiled at Lu Mingjun: "Good boy. By the way, your mother has had a hard time too. Filial piety is the most important virtue..."
