Chapter 202: Manipulation Skills

Xia Ru nodded, thinking that this was someone who could make the decision. She immediately cried, “Madam, please tell Old Master Lu. You’re so elegant and beautiful, and you must know about this. My grandfather really saved Old Master Lu’s life, and I really have an engagement with Lu Lin.”
The calmness on the woman’s face disappeared, and her eyes turned cold as she slapped Xia Ru ts face without warning.
Xia Ru had been hit. She subconsciously covered her face and stared blankly at the woman. “Madam, why did you hit me?”
The woman laughed sinisterly. “Why did I hit you? It seems that you still don’t know my ident.i.ty. I’m Lu Lin’s mother. As a mother, I naturally know my son. If you were the girl who married my son, why would you contact the old man and say that my son forced you?”
“You wrote a letter to the old master, arrogantly saying that my son forced you to break off the engagement. At the same time, you came here in a rush to marry my son?”
Madam Lu pinched Xia Ruts chin. “Let me guess. What is your motive?”
Xia Ru also reacted at this time. It seemed that before she came, Old Master Lu had already received Xia Wan’s letter. According to her understanding of Xia Wan’s character and the att.i.tude of this madam, Xia Wan must have rejected this marriage.
Xia Ru did not get into high school because she had no heart to study, but it did not mean that she was stupid. On the contrary, she was very apt at seeking out the true intentions of others, so a few words from Madam Lu was enough for Xia Ru to deduce what had happened.
She quickly defended herself. “Madam, listen to my explanation. The person who wrote the letter to Old Master Lu was my cousin, but I was the one who arranged the marriage with Lu Lin. I’m the first granddaughter of our family and the smartest and most capable one. If I were to marry, I would definitely marry Lu Lin.
“Old Master Lu must have listened to my cousin’s words. Madam, please take me in and let me explain to Old Master Lu personally.”
Madam Lu looked down on Xia Ru, wondering if the simple village girl was even worthy of being her daughter-in-law.
However, she still listened to Xia Ru.
This time, Lu Lin was immediately locked up after being called back by the old master. The old master even stopped his allowance. Lu Lin wasn’t even allowed to leave his room for a few days now. He had to ask the servants to send his meals to his room every day.
Her son was used to being spoiled. When had he ever suffered such grievances? The reason for all this was the Xia family in the countryside.
Madam Lu had already heard some news from Lu Lin’s subordinates. Lu Lin wanted to get the token from the Xia family to cancel the engagement, but the Xia family had been hiding it and refused to give it to him.
Based on the Xia family’s att.i.tude, it was obvious that they did not want to reject the marriage and wanted to climb up the rungs of the Lu family.
However, the Xia family had also written directly to Old Master Lu, saying that she was unwilling to marry and that Lu Lin was bullying their family.
Mrs. Lu narrowed her eyes. She had already guessed that the Xia family was probably divided into two groups. Those without the token wanted to marry her son, while those with the token didn’t.
She waved her hand slightly and let go of Xia Ru. Then, she wiped her fingers with a handkerchief in disgust and said to her subordinate, “Bring her to a nearby inn first. I have something to ask her in private.”
“Yes.” Her subordinates immediately took action.
Xia Ru thought that Madam Lu believed her and stopped shouting.
Soon, she was brought to the hotel to wait while Madam Lu went to the study where Old Master Lu was.
She knocked on the door, and Old Master Lu’s dignified voice came from inside. “Enter.”
Seeing that it was Madam Lu, Old Master Lu snorted coldly. “Lu Lin treated the descendant of my benefactor like this. This matter won’t go away so easily. Don’t even think about pleading for him!”
Madam Lu smiled faintly and said, “Dad, you’re right. Lu Lin has indeed crossed the line this time. Fortunately, it caused no real harm to the Xia family. However, my son has done something wrong. As his mother, I have to be responsible. I plan to get someone to buy some gifts and send them to the Xia family as an apology.”
Old Master Lu nodded. “Yes, that sounds like a good idea. I’ll leave it to you, then..”
