Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Lu family was in turmoil.
Lu Xi was originally at the company, but he received a call from Old Master Lu, instructing him to come home that night.
Mrs. Lu had also received a notice from Old Master Lu to be present that evening.
Lu Lin was locked in his room by Old Master Lu.
At eight o’clock that night, the Lu family gathered in the living room.
In addition to Lu Xi’s family, Lu Jing was also present.
Lu Xi couldn’t help but glance at Lu Jing, hoping to glean some information from him.
Lu Jing subtly shook his head, indicating that he had no idea what the old man was about to say.
Old Master Lu stared coldly at Lu Xi and then turned to Madam Lu with an apologetic expression.
Finally, he spoke, “I have gathered all of you here today because I have something important to announce.”
Then, he fixed a stern gaze on Lu Xi. “Let me ask you, do you have an illegitimate child outside who is about the same age as Lu Lin?”
Lu Xi grew nervous and averted his gaze. He instinctively retorted, “Dad, where did you hear that from? How could I have an illegitimate child? You know I’ve been occupied with company matters all these years.”
Madam Lu was initially shocked, but soon her shock gave way to anger as she looked at Lu Xi.
During her frequent mahjong sessions with other affluent women, she often heard rumors about other men having affairs, mistresses, and illegitimate children.
Every time, she proudly asserted that her husband was too engrossed in his company to engage in such behavior.
But now, she found herself confronted with shocking news. If Lu Xi indeed had an illegitimate child of the same age as Lu Lin, it meant that he had been involved in an affair not long after their marriage.
Moreover, he had never severed ties with this child.
Mrs. Lu clutched the sofa tightly, her gaze intense as she glared at Lu Xi. “Don’t lie to us. Did you cheat on me or not? Dad wouldn’t call us here without evidence. He must have evidence since he convened such a serious family meeting.”
While Mrs. Lu publicly called for Lu Xi to admit his wrongdoings and hoped for a misunderstanding, deep down, she couldn’t help but believe that Old Master Lu’s words were likely true.
Lu Xi panicked, unwilling to meet Madam Lu’s eyes. However, he couldn’t bring himself to admit having an illegitimate child in front of their child.
“Dad, I don’t know where you heard this from, but I don’t have an illegitimate child. ”
Old Master Lu snorted in response. “I knew you wouldn’t readily admit it. After all, you’ve been in the business world for too long. You always quibble before seeing evidence.” With those words, he tossed a stack of photos onto the table.
Mrs. Lu reached for the photos first.
As she perused them, she observed Lu Xi holding a boy in his arms, accompanied by a woman who appeared to be smiling at them.
Upon recognizing the woman in the photos, Mrs. Lu was overwhelmed with emotions.
Gripping one of the photos tightly, she directed a fierce glare at Lu Xi. “You’re still in contact with Zhou Wan? It was our family that assisted you in securing that business deal with Mr. Smith when you were struggling.”
“If that business venture had failed back then, you would have gone bankrupt long ago.”
‘Without our family’s support, you wouldn’t be where you are now!”
“And what about her? When you were in dire financial straits and on the verge of bankruptcy, she promptly went abroad.”
“Why are you still associating with this woman who abandoned you in your time of need?”
The more Madam Lu spoke, the more aggrieved she felt, and she erupted, “She’s already abandoned you, yet you still want to be with her and raise her son. Are you that cheap?”
Lu Xi glared back, his anger mounting. “Watch your words. Don’t call Zhou Wan such names.”
Initially, he had felt a twinge of guilt toward Madam Lu. However, her outburst had largely dispelled that feeling..
