Chapter 361
As one could have guessed before coming here, Ethan’s father’s attitude towards her was really bad to say the least.
When Ethan Lu led her over to sit down, the old man’s cold words floated over, “Ethan, why did you bring an outsider home?”
Ruona was stunned, and she and Ethan Lu looked at each other, having the suffocating feeling of wanting to laugh but not being able to.
“Outsiders?” Ethan Lu’s icy gaze shot towards his father, the corner of his l!ps curled up in a sneering smile, “Father may have forgotten that back then when my mother was here, you were the one who brought a real outsider into the house in a dignified manner.”
Eyes written with mockery seemingly unintentionally swept over Lin Xuezhi, the latter’s face whitened a bit as he continued, “Moreover, the first year is my lawful wife, not an outsider.”
Lu Dingbang stared at him fixedly, his gaze sharp without a trace of warmth, not at all like the way a father would look at his own child.
But Ethan Lu did not show any weakness in meeting his gaze, not losing any momentum to his own father at all.
Ruona was cold and sweaty at the side, she could clearly feel the cold air emanating from all over Ethan’s body, and it seemed that he had a great deal of resentment towards his father.
Just like she did with her own father, so
She gently squeezed his hand.
Ethan Lu looked at her sideways, only to see her smiling at him with a smile as warm as the spring breeze, and for an instant, it was as if he had been saved, the cold air around him slowly faded away, and his tense look softened.
His change, Lu Dingbang and Lin Xuezhi both saw it in their eyes, and both of them secretly marveled at the influence of the woman in front of them on Ethan.
Lu Dingbang’s eyes floated with a hint of ruthlessness that was not easily perceptible, this woman must not be allowed to stay by Ethan’s side, it would affect Ethan’s future career.
Once a man has a hold on a woman, or a woman, how can he still have great ambitions and do things all tied up with his hands and feet not clean enough.
In contrast to him, Lin Xuezhi felt that Ruona’s appearance wasn’t a good opportunity for her and Chen Dong, at least they caught Ethan Lu’s weakness.
The two people with different thoughts looked at each other, then Lin Xuezhi smiled gently and lightly, “You guys sit down first, we’ll talk about whatever you have.”
Then, she feigned a furious stare at Lu Dingbang and scolded softly, “Dingbang ah, this Ethan had a hard time coming back for a trip, you don’t want to carry your stinky frame and piss off the child, otherwise I’m not finished with you.”
This sounded like Ruona really wanted to roll her eyes, was this playing the role of a loving mother to Ethan’s father? Not too fake to be disgusting.
Surely the number of paragraphs is much higher than Kendra Zhao.
After complaining about Lu Dingbang, Lin Xuezhi moved her gaze back to Ruona and asked with a smile, “Ruona, I heard that your family has a company of its own, right?”
Tang’s group was quite famous in Beining, but to Lin Xuezhi who lived in the capital, a small group like that she didn’t even look at.
Ruona nodded, “Well, a small company is not enough.”
Hearing the three words “small company”, Lu Dingbang’s brow wrinkled, in his heart, the one who could be worthy of Ethan must be the daughter of a famous family, the family lineage might be almost worse than the Lu family, but not so bad as to be outrageous.
Lin Xuezhi looked at Lu Dingbang, from his look could see how much he disliked Ruona, a glimmer of light quickly swept across the bottom of her eyes, she then asked, “I heard that your mother died early, your father remarried, and your stepmother and sister all treated you badly, is that right?”
In the meantime, Ruona’s brows are knitted, and the corners of her mouth held a hint of a mocking smile, “Haven’t you already investigated me? Why do you need to ask me?”
Not embarrassed at being poked at the truth, Lindsay admitted frankly, “We did investigate you, after all, you’re married to Ethan and we have to know something about his wife.”
“Heh.” Ethan Lu let out a snort of laughter and looked at Lu Dingbang and Lin Xuezhi with a sneer between his eyebrows, “Don’t tell me that you guys investigated my wife and only cared about me?”
Lu Dingbang looked straight at him, looking tense, and didn’t make a sound.
And still smiling, Lin Xuezhi opened her mouth to explain, “Ethan, after all, in a family like ours, how many women are trying to get close to you”
Hearing this, Ethan Lu directly and rudely interrupted her, “Is Aunt Lin talking about yourself?”
Lin Xuezhi was stunned, then reacted to the meaning of his words, and the smile on his face became a little forced, “Ethan, you’re”
The sarcastic smile on Ethan Lu’s l!ps grew even wider, “Did I say something wrong? Didn’t you try to get close to my father in the first place, force my mother away, and make Junior the first wife?”
Lin Xuezhi’s face turned even whiter, and she turned towards Lu Dingbang and cast an aggrieved look at him.
The latter looked at her, then looked sternly at Ethan Lu and scolded in a cold and hard tone, “Ethan, is this the way you talk to your Aunt Lin? Also, back then, it was your mother who wanted to leave on her own, no one forced her to leave.”
Lu Dingbang’s words simply refreshed Ruona’s three views, this Ethan’s father is inevitably too ruthless, what is Ethan’s mother herself wanted to leave, no one forced her? Wasn’t he the one who cheated on her and brought the third child home, which forced Seok Jin’s mother away?
Scum! Capital scum! Ruona scolded and scolded Lu Dingbang in her heart, if it wasn’t for the fact that he was an elder and was Ethan’s father, she really wanted to dislike him directly back.
After hearing his father’s words like this, the air pressure around Ethan Lu instantly dropped, his eyes suddenly turned cold, cold as a December frost, his l!ps hooked with a cold smile, “It seems that you and I have nothing to say, father.”
With that said, he pulled Ruona to get up, without looking at Lu Dingbang and the others, he turned around and left.
“Ethan!” Lin Xuezhi shouted in panic and quickly stood up to catch up, stopping them directly in front of her, “Ethan, you’ve come back after a long time, stay a few more days before you go back.”
Ethan Lu swept a cold glance at her and without saying a word walked around her in big strides towards the front door.
“If you leave from here today, then your brother Albert will lose his freedom.”
Lu Dingbang’s voice came over without a trace of warmth.
Ethan Lu suddenly paused, he didn’t turn his head back, “Do you think you can move me and Saint Yao now?”
“You, I’m really not sure, but Saint Yao, I’m a hundred percent sure, who else can he rely on but you, his big brother?”
Lu Dingbang’s tone was full of confidence.
Ruona felt the strength of Ethan’s hand holding hers a little heavier, and she couldn’t help but look at him worriedly, “Ethan, are you okay?”
Ethan Lu smiled slightly, “I’m fine.”
Then, he turned around and shot his icy gaze towards Lu Dingbang who was still sitting on the sofa, “I will never let you touch Saint Yao for a single cent.”
Ethan Lu’s voice was also filled with confidence and determination.
Lu Dingbang turned his head and looked at him, the eyes of father and son met in the air, neither letting anyone get a single point.
Chapter 362
The confrontation between father and son, no one was allowed to let anyone, and the atmosphere was once rattled.
In the end, Ethan Lu pulled Ruona and left the Lu family without any attachment, giving Lu Dingbang a very determined attitude.
Although he had known that this would be the outcome, Lu Dingbang was still so angry at Ethan Lu’s arrogant attitude that his face turned black.
“Chi, look at this attitude of his! How can I feel comfortable leaving everything in the Lu family to him when he’s so porcelain and doesn’t care about me as a father at all?”
Hearing that he wanted to leave everything in the Lu family to Ethan Lu, Lin Xuezhi’s eyes swiftly swept over a hint of birds of prey, but quickly covered it up as she reached out and gently patted the chest of the furious Lu Dingbang as she softly reassured, “You can’t force this child Ethan, the more you force him, the more he resists, we can persuade him properly.”
“How to persuade?” Lu Dingbang’s tone was still punchy.
Lin Xuezhi thought about it a bit, then said, “If it’s not possible, I can come out and talk to that Ruona.”
Upon hearing that, Lu Dingbang quietly looked at her for a long while, finally nodded and said in a deep voice, “Ah Chi, I’ve made you worry.”
Lin Xuezhi smiled, “There’s no need to be so polite between husband and wife, and besides, I truly love Ethan as my own child, and I also hope he can find a good wife.”
Lu Dingbang heard this, there was clearly a touching light in his eyes, and his serious and cold face also had a shallow smile, he held her hand, and said in a rare and gentle tone, “Chi, Ethan’s attitude like that, it’s really hard for you.”
Back then, he was just fascinated by her gentleness, so he recklessly took her home, but at the cost of divorcing Sae-Jin’s mother and also losing the love of his two children.
But after all these years, her tenderness and thoughtfulness hadn’t diminished one bit and she had given a lot to this family, so he didn’t regret his impulsiveness back then.
Lin Xuezhi was still smiling gently, “I don’t blame Sae-Jin, after all, it was really me that caused you and his mother to divorce back then”
At this point, Lin Xuezhi sighed, looking more than a little guilty, “If it wasn’t for me, he would at least have a happy family now, and his personality wouldn’t be so cold.”
“Don’t say that, it’s not your fault, it’s all caused by his own ignorance.” Thinking of Ethan Lu’s attitude towards Lin Xuezhi, Lu Dingbang’s anger that had not easily calmed down sprang back up, “That brat, if he continues to be so ignorant and porcelain, I’ll leave everything in the Lu family to Tatsuo Tatsuo when the time comes.”
Lin Xuezhi’s eyes flashed a hint of joy, but on the surface still fake panic persuaded, “Dingbang, you don’t be impulsive ah, how to say that Ethan is the real Lu family heir, you can’t have this kind of thought e”
In the face of her panic, Lu Dingbang couldn’t help but lose his smile, “I’m just saying, I know the score.”
Then, he sighed heavily and lowered his head without saying anything else.
And lowering his head he didn’t notice the birds of prey floating in Lin Xuezhi’s eyes, Lin Xuezhi looked at the man in front of her who had shared the same bed for over twenty years, and although she knew in her heart that he was good to her, just the thought that he was going to leave everything in the Lu family to Ethan Lu completely erased his goodness to her.
Her son worked diligently for the cause of the Lu family, and how much effort he had put in for the sake of the Lu family, but in the end, it was just a graft for Ethan Lu.
How can she level this anger?
As long as Lu Dingbang was still alive and the will hadn’t been made, then she, Tatsuo Tatsuo, still had a chance.
The black Maybach drove out of the Lu family villa area and headed down the mountain, the car was quiet, and Ruona, who was sitting in the car, quietly watched the scenery along the road.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the car and see if it’s a good idea to take a look at the car.
For a long time, Ruona turned her head, her worried gaze falling on Ethan Lu’s crisp side face.
“Ethan,” she called out softly.
“Huh?”
“Are you okay?”
Ethan Lu’s side of his head quirked his l!ps at her slightly, “I’m fine, don’t worry.”
Is it really okay? Ruona wasn’t very convinced, she pursed her l!ps and asked again, “Is it really okay if we just leave like this?”
Thinking about what his father had said, Ruona was a little worried, she was really afraid that his father would do something to Saint Yao, in that case, would Saint Yao’s relationship with Fabia be as unacceptable as hers?
There was already one of her, she didn’t want her best friend to suffer the same thing as herself.
“If you’re worried about Saint Yao, then you don’t have to worry, as long as I’m here, my father wouldn’t dare to do anything to Saint Yao.”
His tone was really firm.
Ruona couldn’t help but feel a little ridiculous, who was he, but Ethan Lu, although he didn’t have the ability to see through the sky, he still had enough ability to protect his family and friends.
Ruona smiled sweetly, “Well, then I won’t worry about it. I trust you.”
“Thank you for your trust.” Ethan Lu turned his head and smiled with her.
Ruona smiled, then turned to look out the window again and asked curiously, “Then are we going to go straight back to Beining later?”
“It’s a rare trip to the capital, I’ll take you around.” Ethan Lu turned the steering wheel, and the car quickly slid out of the curve, heading towards Ruona’s unknown direction.
There were many attractions in the capital, but now that it was late autumn, the most popular was still maple viewing.
The car drove towards the mountains, and from afar, Ruona could see the red leaves of the mountains, especially striking and beautiful under the azure sky.
The car parked at the entrance of the park, a parked car, Ruona can not wait to open the door to get off the car, into the eyes of the rosy red leaves let her hard to hide a face of joy.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you in for a walk.” Ethan Lu walked to her side and held her hand to the park.
Since it wasn’t a holiday and it wasn’t any peak tourist season, there weren’t many tourists in the park.
Walking slowly along the road that was lined with maple trees on both sides, the red leaves from the wind-blown branches swayed and floated down, Ruona couldn’t help but reach out and catch a leaf, then as if she had gained a treasure, she picked it up and pointed it at the sky, smiling especially happily.
Ethan Lu quietly looked at her, his eyes filled with tenderness, seeing her smile as innocent as a child, and with a thought, he pulled out his phone, opened his camera, and snapped a picture of her.
“Ka-chow!”
Hearing the sound of the camera, Ruona turned her head, just in time to his eyes full of tenderness, the curvature of her l!ps couldn’t help but deepen a few points, her eyebrows smiling curved, “You secretly filmed me.”
Ethan Lu smiled, “Very beautiful scenery, very beautiful people, I’m very moved.”
Ruona was stunned, then he lost his laughter, “Are you saying this is a love story?”
Ethan Lu raised his eyebrows, “If you think it is, it is.”
Then, he raised his hand and took her into his arms and continued walking.
Chapter 363
The entire park in addition to maple appreciation, in fact, there are many other attractions to play, but because they came late, after the maple appreciation sky are very late, the intention is not yet satisfied Ruona can only accost the home.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the car, and then turn around and see Ruona staring out the window.
With a shallow smile spilling out of the corner of his l!ps, he softly said, “I’ll come with you some other day.”
Some other day?
Ruona looked at him off to the side, he and she were both very busy, and this change of date would be unknown.
She absently said, “Okay, we’ll come back some other time.”
With that said, she turned her head away again and continued to look out the window at the scenery that made her heart grow fonder.
By the time they came down from the mountain and arrived in the city, the sky was already completely dark, the lights were at their peak, and Ethan Lu and the others were stuck on the road, and the traffic was moving slowly like a snail.
Ruona couldn’t help but let out a sigh, “Surely the traffic in big cities is not ordinary congestion either!”
“It’s good to get used to it.” Ethan Lu had obviously gotten used to this kind of congestion, and his long fingers tapped the steering wheel once or twice, looking quite relaxed and comfortable.
Ruona left her l!ps, “Then I still hope I don’t get used to it.”
If she was stuck like this every day, she would absolutely go crazy.
She was very lucky that they weren’t living in the capital.
Ethan Lu turned to look at her, he understood what she was thinking, so he smiled and didn’t continue to talk on this topic.
With the traffic being so congested, they finally arrived at the place where they would be eating at night.
A private clubhouse.
Ruona looked up at the building in front of her with wonder in her eyes, this must be the most famous gathering place for the rich in the capital.
It was said that the members of this clubhouse were all famous elites in the political and business world, and they all had power and strength behind them that could not be underestimated.
She looked down at the simple jeans and cardigan she was wearing, which were completely out of place in such a luxurious environment.
She wouldn’t be thrown out if she went in like this, would she?
She was inexplicably a little inferior.
So this was the kind of place Ethan grew up in, and she was just a Cinderella girl who was bullied by her stepmother and sister.
When she thought of the word “Cinderella”, she couldn’t help but shiver, why does she feel like a heroine in a novel now?
A little thunder!
She took a deep breath to steady her mind, which was disturbed by the high-class clubhouse before her, and turned to Ethan Lu, who had handed the car keys to the parking boy, the corners of her l!ps turning up slightly as she watched him slowly walk towards her.
“Let’s go inside.” Ethan Lu walked up to her, took her hand and walked into the building.
“Wait!” Ruona pulled him in.
“Well?” Ethan Lu turned his head to look at her in puzzlement.
Ruona pointed at the building, then at the outfit she was wearing and asked carefully, “I’m going in dressed like this, I won’t be thrown out, right?”
So that’s what she was worried about!
Ethan Lu laughed softly, “No, with me here, how dare they kick you out?”
Saying that, he led her straight towards the inside.
Although the words were so, but Ruona heart was still very nervous, after all to come to such a club, at least are to dress formally, look at herself dressed so casually, she herself can not look down, let alone the staff of the club.
However, it turned out that she was simply thinking blindly.
Ethan Lu was a member of this club and used to come in and out of here often, so as long as the staff had been working in the club for years, they would know him, so as soon as he walked into the club, someone immediately greeted him and respectfully shouted, “Hello, Mr. Lu.”
“Have they come, Chu Shao?” Ethan Lu asked.
“Here they are, they’re waiting for you in the previous box.”
Ruona looked at the person who greeted him, her gaze focused on the badge on his chest, and a sudden realization appeared in her eyes, so this person was the manager of this club, Ai
The manager swept Ruona’s eyes unobtrusively, then smiled and said to Ethan Lu, “Mr. Lu, this way, I’ll take you up.”
As a member of the club’s staff, the most important principle was not to ask about the guests’ privacy.
So even if the manager was curious about the woman Ethan Lu brought, he wouldn’t talk too much.
The manager led them to the 27th floor’s private room, then turned around and left .
As he left, he couldn’t help but still take one more look at Ruona, right into Ruona’s eyes, he was so frightened that he quickly withdrew his gaze and left in a hurry.
His panic was seen in Ruona’s eyes, Ruona could not help but laugh and cry, is she scary looking? Just one look at him, why leave in such a hurry?
The light-hearted music immediately spilled out as Ethan Lu pushed open the box door.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the box and see who is in it.
“Sister-in-law, I miss you so much E”
It’s Ming Elementary School.
The tip of Ruona’s eyebrows raised slightly, she remembered that their relationship was not that good oh.
But she still patted Ming Xiao’s back symbolically and said softly, “Well, I miss you too.”
Ever since Ethan Lu refused to let her stay at home last time, she had returned to the capital in a negative mood, but she never expected to meet her again tonight, so she really didn’t know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.
After hugging Ming Little, Ruona greeted the others one by one before sitting in the most corner with Ethan Lu.
It was still Ethan’s group of best friends.
Chu Yuan, Shen Mu, and Ling Yao.
They all looked very excited, especially Ling Yao, who directly took the wine and said to Ethan Lu, “Brother, welcome back to the capital.”
In the past, they had all traveled to Beining in order to meet up with him, but this time it was brother who took the initiative to come to the capital to find them, how could they not be excited?
This is the first time my brother has cared so much about them.
What a joyous occasion!
“We haven’t eaten yet, no wine.”
Ethan Lu’s faint words instantly cooled Ling Yao’s excitement by a few points.
But after all, Ling Yao was young and quickly recovered, “Then I’ll drink it myself.”
After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp.
“Sister-in-law, this is the menu, you can order whatever you want, it’s on me today.” Shen Mu handed the menu to Ruona, his handsome face piled with a genial smile.
“Then I can have to order the most expensive.” Ruona took the menu and raised her eyebrows playfully.
Shen Mu smiled, “If my younger sister likes it, I’ll be happy.”
Looking at Shen Mu and the others, the smile on Ruona’s face was even greater, obviously and they had only seen each other a few times, but I don’t know why they always made her feel like she had actually known them for a long, long time, just like family.
Maybe this is the so-called fate.
And this fate, from the time she took the initiative to marry Ethan, it had already started.
