"you guess."
There was a frivolous and yuppie smile on the corner of Shen Kuo's mouth, and he looked at Lu Yan.
Lu Yan avoided his gaze and her heart beat suddenly. Although she knew that he said that deliberately to annoy Lu Zhen, but...
No girl can resist Shen Kuo's straightforward gaze
His undisguised fiery eyes completely angered Lu Zhen.
Lu Zhen rushed over and punched Shen Kuo: "You dare to hit her! I'll kill you!"
Shen Kuo took a quick step back and turned his head to avoid it.
Lu Zhen's eyes were red, like an angry lion.
His intentions towards Lu Yan made Lu Zhen extremely irritable, and Liang Ting and the others could hardly hold him back.
Fortunately, the police arrived in time and pulled Lu Zhen away. Seeing that he was taking advantage of the chaos to stir up trouble, they simply detained him in the police car.
Lu Zhen roared angrily: "He was the one who set the fire! Why are you arresting me! Capture him!"
Without evidence, of course the police can't arrest people casually, but Lu Zhen was caught for picking a fight and resisting the arrest, so the police directly handcuffed them.
Seeing that Lu Zhen was arrested, Lu Yan was very anxious, and wanted to get into the police car with him, but Liang Ting stopped him in time.
In the panic, Lu Yan turned her head, Shen Kuo looked at her from a distance, straightened her collar with one hand, and still had a faint smile on her lips.
Many times, Lu Yan can feel that the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two boys is actually not simple.
Lu Zhen has a straightforward temper, and the reason for hating Shen Kuo may be very simple, just simply not being used to it.
But Shen Kuo has a very small heart, and love and hate are extravagant to him.
Lu Yan didn't know what unforgivable thing Lu Zhen did that made him endure and lie dormant for more than ten years, planning this revenge.
If it's just because of these trivial things when he was a teenager, it seems too simple to breed deep-seated hatred.
That night, it happened that Lu Jian was on a business trip, and she was in the United States. Lu Zhen was brought out of the police station by her stepmother Shi Xuexian.
The mansion was brightly lit, Shi Xuexian sat on the sofa with a straight face, Lu Zhen stood in the middle of the hall, and Lu Yan stood behind him, looking at Shi Xuexian embarrassingly.
In Lu Jian's absence, this family is ultimately decided by the mistress Shi Xuexian. Seeing Shi Xuexian's menacing appearance, Lu Yan probably won't let them go easily.
"Murder and set fire, Lu Zhen, you are really capable!"
Shi Xuexian completely lost her gentle and polite appearance in front of Lu Jian. With a straight face, she looked at Lu Zhen coldly: "Losing money is small. If someone is killed or injured, you will go to jail."
Lu Yan poked her head out from behind her father, and argued: "The police have already said that someone set the fire on purpose, but it has nothing to do with Lu Zhen, so don't talk nonsense."
Shi Ya sat next to her mother, took her hand, and said emphatically, "It happened in the place he rented, and he must take full responsibility! Mom, since Papa Lu asked you to take care of the house, you can't do anything about it." Regardless, he must be taught a lesson!"
Lu Yan rolled her eyes, what about Lu's father, Shi Ya must feel too good about herself, Lu Jian has never recognized her.
Shi Xuexian pressed her daughter's hand, probably to signal her to be at ease.
"Lu Zhen, I've never said a single word to you when you gossip outside, but as your stepmother, I can't ignore you making such a big disaster today."
Shi Xuexian stood up, walked in front of Lu Zhen, and cleared her throat: "According to the family rules set by your father, I will punish you."
"it's up to you."
After a whole day of trouble, Lu Zhen was extremely sleepy. He yawned and said, "If you want to be punished, you should be fined quickly. I'm going to sleep."
Shi Xuexian asked the servant to come over with a stick, and Lu Yan was startled when she saw the stick as thick as a thumb.
In her era, parents generally would not physically punish children, let alone prepare such a fierce stick, but when her father was growing up, it was common for children to be beaten.
Shi Ya glanced at Lu Yan who was hiding behind Lu Zhen, and said cheerfully: "Mom, Lu Yan was also involved in this incident. She was also in the dance hall at the time, and if she wants to be punished, both of them should be punished together!"
Shi Xuexian asked Lu Yan: "Are you there?"
"So what if you're here!" Lu Yan boldly said, "It's none of our business at all, if Lu Zhen hadn't rushed into the fire and evacuated in time, someone would have been injured, you can't just hit people indiscriminately! "
Shi Xuexian smiled faintly: "Since you also participated, then you will be punished together with your brother."
Lu Zhen protected Lu Yan behind her, gave Shi Xuexian a cold look, and said under her breath, "How dare you."
"The elder punishes the younger, even if your father comes back, he can't blame me!"
Of course Shi Xuexian would not do it herself, she handed the stick to a servant beside her, and ordered: "Hit me!"
The male servant was a little hesitant and didn't dare to do anything, mainly if Lu Jian asked, he would definitely hit her without hesitation, but Shi Xuexian... To put it bluntly, she was just a stepmother.
Besides, forget about Lu Zhen, this second lady is Lu Jian's treasure, if it is broken, it will be fine.
Seeing that she couldn't control the servant, Shi Xuexian was furious, and said loudly: "I'll take care of any problems, if you don't do anything, get out tonight!"
Seeing that his job was not guaranteed, the male servant finally walked up to Lu Zhen with a stick, raised his hand and dropped the stick, hitting Lu Zhen on the arm.
There was only a muffled sound, and a clear red line appeared on Lu Zhen's arm.
He bit his lower lip, shrank his body, and felt his entire arm go numb.
Seeing that Shi Xuexian was serious, Lu Yan said angrily, "Even if it's grandpa, he wouldn't take action against Lu Zhen easily! It's too much for you to be beaten as soon as you come!"
The corners of Shi Xuexian's eyes trembled slightly because of her extreme hatred, and she said in a deep voice, "This little girl hit me too!"
With sharp eyes and quick hands, Lu Zhen held Lu Yan in her arms, and another stick fell firmly behind her.
He grunted, obviously in pain.
Lu Yan looked at Shi Xuexian viciously, and said, "I won't let you go!"
Shi Ya said in a sharp tone: "Mom, hit her quickly! Hit her in the face!"
Lu Zhen hugged the petite Lu Yan, and her whole body became her protective wall, preventing her from being hurt at all.
However, at this moment, two Mercedes-Benz luxury cars drove into the garden gate and honked two sharp horns.
Shi Xuexian asked in surprise, "Who's here?"
The servant hurried into the house and said in a panic, "It's Madam! Madam is back!"
"What madam!" Shi Xuexian said coldly, "I am the madam of this mansion!"
As soon as she finished speaking, several bodyguards in suits entered the room one after another. The leader stepped forward and took off the stick from the servant's hand, throwing it heavily on the ground.
Lu Yan looked towards the door curiously, and saw a straight-haired woman in a small suit and one-line skirt came in. The woman was about a little younger than Shi Xuexian, and she was dressed neatly and concisely.
Compared with her temperament, Shi Xuexian, a housewife who only knows how to play mahjong, is far inferior.
Lu Yan stared at her delicately made-up face for a while, then suddenly remembered, isn't this her grandma Meng Zhining!
Although Lu Zhen and Lu Jian have a bad relationship, when she was a child, this kind grandmother often came to play with her at home, and every time she would bring her a lot of snacks and new dresses, it hurt her so much!
Grandma is the only daughter of Meng's Group. She has been talented and capable since she was a child. She inherited Meng's Real Estate at a young age and is now the chairman of Meng's Real Estate.
Perhaps it was precisely because of her ability and strong personality that she couldn't get along with Lu Jian, who was also outstanding in ability, so she couldn't live on, and she divorced early and lived separately.
Thanks to grandma's help, Lu Zhen's career grew smoothly in those years.
When Meng Zhining entered the room, all the servants in the room were silent at the same time. The butler came over with tea and respectfully called her madam.
Shi Xuexian's face changed suddenly.
This "ma'am" slapped her face hard.
In any case, Meng Zhining is the mother of the two children of the Lu family. Even if she is divorced, she is still the official wife of this mansion.
"Mom." Lu Zhen looked like a deflated ball, and she no longer had the confident appearance just now.
He didn't care what Shi Xuexian thought of him, but he cared a lot about Meng Zhining's opinion on the fire.
"My Yanyan." Seeing the little girl in Lu Zhen's arms, Meng Zhining said softly, "Come here and give mom a hug."
Lu Yan hurried over to hug Meng Zhining.
"Grandma... no, mom..."
"Mom misses you so much. How have you been all these years? Have you suffered outside?"
Lu Yan didn't care about gossiping with grandma, she just gave Shi Xuexian a resentful look, and complained repeatedly: "Mom, she still wants to beat me and brother!"
Meng Zhining had just returned from the United States. Hearing that his daughter had been found, he rushed to the Lu residence without stopping, but he didn't expect to bump into this scene as soon as he entered the door.
She stood up straight, walked up to Shi Xuexian, and asked in a cold voice, "You hit my children?"
Shi Xuexian panicked when she saw Meng Zhining. Her family background was not good, her education was not high, and she didn't have much knowledge. Facing this noble lady, she naturally lost a lot of her aura.
"As Lu, the hostess of the Lu family, my child is doing something wrong, and I discipline him severely, what's wrong!"
Shi Xuexian could only boost her momentum by turning up the volume.
Meng Zhining glanced at Shi Ya: "You can discipline your own child, but it's not your turn to discipline my child!"
Of course, Shi Xuexian is not a vegetarian, so she immediately said: "I am Lu Jian's wife, the mistress of this family. I discipline my husband's children in my own home. Do I need the consent of an outsider like you?"
"Are you the mistress of the house?"
Meng Zhining sneered and said, "There is one thing, I think you need to be clear. This house is my Meng Zhining's dowry, and the real estate certificate is written in my own name. When I divorced Lu Jian, I gave this house away. I left it to my children, so you can never be the mistress of this house, understand?"
As soon as this remark came out, Shi Xuexian's expression changed instantly.
"You... what did you say!"
The house she lives in now has the name of her husband's ex-wife written on it.
All the servants present were watching, such humiliation was enough to make her unable to hold her head up for the rest of her life.
Lu Yan looked really cool, her Grandma Meng had never seen anything, and dealing with Shi Xuexian was as easy as killing an ant.
Meng Zhining looked at Shi Xuexian, then at Shi Ya beside her, and said calmly, "You mother and daughter, get out of my house immediately."
"You...you can't do this!" Shi Ya said loudly: "If Father Lu knows, he won't agree!"
"Papa Lu?" Meng Zhining said with a sneer, "Lu Jian attaches great importance to family ties, what kind of daughter are you, she is not afraid of biting her tongue if she casually recognizes her father."
Shi Xuexian pulled La Shiya, and said in a low voice, "Yaya, go and pack your things, we're going to live out tonight."
"Mom! How can..."
"obedient!"
Shi Ya could only turn around angrily and go back to her room to pack her things.
Before leaving, Shi Xuexian gave Meng Zhining a gouged look, with endless viciousness in her eyes, she would remember all the humiliation today, and repay it one by one in the future.
Meng Zhining closed his eyes, too lazy to talk to her.
This kind of little woman in the market place dares to show off her power in front of her because of her cleverness. She Meng Zhining is used to Fengyun, so how often will she take this kind of person seriously.
