Chapter 100: Angering the Wen Family (2)
“Lu Manman, are you trying to make fun of me on purpose?!” Lu Zichuan was getting angry now and did not sound like an elder at all. “Back then, Miss Wen wanted to marry the heir of the Lu family. Otherwise, do you think that I couldn’t compare to Lu Zishan! If Grandpa hadn’t stopped me back then, I would have married Miss Wen long ago, and the Wen family business would have been booming! You wouldn’t even dare to tell me what to do!”
Lu Manman looked at Lu Zichuan calmly, and then at Lan Xiaojun.
Lan Xiaojun’s expression was awful. Who would want to hear their husband say that he wanted to marry another woman?! And he had only married her because of another failed marriage!
“Do you take my words as nothing?! I told you to stop making so much noise! Didn’t you hear me?!” Lu Qinzheng was fuming mad, and his voice was booming.
It was silent for two seconds.
Lu Qinzheng spoke again. “Let’s go to the Wen family first. If there’s anything, we can resolve it after we apologize to the Wen family!”
“Dad, regarding this…” Lu Zishan really did not want his daughter to suffer any grievances. For the first time, he decided to rebut his father.
“Alright, I’ll go!” Lu Manman said right away.
Lu Zishan looked at her in disbelief.
“Yes! I will go if Grandpa wants me to. After all, Grandpa is the elder, and I should listen to him,” Lu Manman said very seriously.
But what she said shocked everyone.
Given her temper, she wouldn’t tolerate it this way!
She smiled. “Grandpa doesn’t want me to go?”
“Who says so! Come with me right now. Old Master Wen called me a while ago and told me to go to his place once I’ve found you! Lu Manman, don’t you go back on your word. Without the Wen family, our Lu family wouldn’t be able to develop in Wen City anymore!” Lu Qinzheng said as he walked ahead.
Lu Zichuan’s family hurried to catch up.
Lu Manman did not stay for long and soon headed out.
“Manman.” Lu Zishan grabbed her. “What’s your plan?”
“Dad, wait for me at home with Mom.”
“How could I possibly allow you to go! Your grandfather is a person who would do anything for the sake of power. You’d surely feel aggrieved if you went.” Lu Zishan was anxious. “I respected my father in the past because he’s my father and he raised me. But now, I can’t let him do whatever he wants to you.”
Lu Manman smiled.
She wanted to make sure that her father understood how her grandfather’s vile actions were hurting the family.
“Dad, since you’re so filial to Grandpa, you always give in to him and avoid him in times of conflict. But now, we can’t avoid Lu Xuanran when he grows up. To put it bluntly, Lu Xuanran hasn’t taken over the Lu Firm yet, so Grandpa won’t stop. So, from now on, Dad, you have to be prepared. We will go against Grandpa eventually,” Lu Manman said it a little too quickly, but her words were crystal clear. “And I’m going to the Wen family’s home to let Grandpa know about this.”
“Manman, what are you doing?”
“Nothing much. I just want Grandpa to calm down.” Lu Manman smiled confidently.
Lu Zishan looked at his daughter.
When did her daughter become so… motivated?
Although the Manman of the past was smart and steady, she would never have tried so hard to win something over. It was as if she could handle anything calmly now. He used to worry that with such kindness, she would feel aggrieved after marrying Wen Yun.
Was this change a good thing?
