When Su Ci returned to the Su family, Ji Chi had already returned from the hospital after having his wounds bandaged, and Su's father and mother were also there.
Apparently, the bodyguard told them what happened tonight.
Mother Su saw Ji Chi was injured like this, and the one who beat him was unreasonable. She was furious and said to her husband directly, "We can't just let this matter go. If the Lu family intervenes, our family must intervene too. It doesn't make sense for Xiao Chi to be beaten for saving others."
Father Su nodded and said, "I will mention this matter to Flower Fox later. If he wants to intervene, I will stop him."
However, based on what Father Su knew about Lu Chen, that spotted fox had no interests and would not stand up for the younger generation from the Lu family's side branch who were causing trouble.
Mother Su was still very angry. "It's a good thing Ci Ci brought bodyguards, otherwise, would Xiao Chi be beaten to death by them? These rich kids are too arrogant."
Thinking about her best friend's child who almost lost his life, she felt a pang of fear.
"Xiao Ci, why did you go to the bar?" Father Su was more concerned about his daughter going to the bar.
The bar was crowded and messy, and he would not feel at ease even if it was the property of an acquaintance, not to mention that the bar had low security, otherwise those rich kids would not dare to cause trouble there.
"I'll go and see for myself, Dad. Don't worry, I didn't drink, and I brought someone with me." Su Ci sat next to Su's mother and turned her head to act coquettishly to her. "Mom, I will never put myself in danger. I'm just a little curious about what the bar is like."
She knew that her father always listened to her mother.
On the opposite side, Ji Chi's gaze gently passed over Su Ci's face, not daring to look at the girl's overly red, watery lips.
Su's mother glared at her husband and said, "My daughter is going to see it for herself. Why are you making such a fuss? If she hadn't brought people there tonight, Xiao Chi would have been dead."
Father Su was scolded by his wife, but he was not angry. "I am worried about my daughter's safety. If Xiaoci wants to go to such a complicated place next time, I must bring more people with me."
The Su family’s treasure cannot be bullied.
Su Ci nodded obediently.
When Su's mother saw the wound on Ji Chi's face, she looked reluctant and said, "Xiao Chi, go upstairs and have a good rest first. We can take care of the rest."
Su Ci looked up and saw that there was white gauze on Ji Chi's forehead, and hemostatic patches on the corners of his mouth and the sides of his face. His originally tough, cold and handsome appearance became a little funny and less cold.
Ji Chi responded and when he looked up, he met Su Ci's gaze. His heart tightened and he nodded to her, then got up and went upstairs.
Back in the room, Ji Chi received a call from Fang Qin.
"I heard from Tong Xin that you were beaten up?" Fang Qin's voice was anxious on the phone, "Xiao Chi, how are you injured? Is it serious? Do you need your mother to come over to see you?"
"Mom, I'm fine." Ji Chi sat down on the bed and felt the hemostatic patch on his face was about to fall off. He pressed it with his hand and felt a pain.
Ji Chi told his mother, "I just came back from the hospital. The wound has been bandaged and it's not serious."
Fang Qin breathed a sigh of relief. "What exactly happened? I heard from Tong Xin that you had a conflict with some rich kids in the bar? Xiao Chi, will they retaliate against you later?"
Those people are from wealthy families, while she and her son are just ordinary people. If the other party holds a grudge and is unwilling to let her son go, then her son will definitely suffer.
The more Fang Qin thought about it, the more worried she became.
"Mom, don't worry. They won't do anything to me. Uncle Su and Aunt Su will help solve it." Ji Chi spoke at a steady pace, calming Fang Qin on the other end of the phone.
After hearing her son's words, Fang Qin finally relaxed, "I'm going to trouble Tong Xin and the others again."
Fang Qin was very worried about bothering others. After all, given the situation at home, it would be difficult for them to repay the Su family's favor.
Ji Chi clenched his phone.
Fang Qin continued to ask, "Xiao Chi, why did you fight with those rich kids?"
She knew her son's character and knew he would never take the initiative to cause trouble.
"My colleague encountered difficulties at that time." Ji Chi said in a light tone.
Fang Qin sighed, "Xiao Chi, if something like this happens again, don't act on impulse. Our family's situation is different from those people's."
Over the years, Fang Qin has been burdened with so much debt that she has developed a character that is afraid of any disturbance. She just wants to carefully protect her family and her son.
Ji Chi lowered his eyes, his voice sounded particularly dull in the quiet room, "I know."
Fang Qin gave Ji Chi a few more reminders, saying that school would be starting soon, and asked him to take good care of his injuries and not to take a part-time job.
After Ji Chi agreed to everything, she hung up the phone.
Only the warm yellow light by the bed was on in the room; Ji Chi's tall waist cast a lonely shadow on the wall.
... ...
Even with the Su family’s intervention, Lu Wudi and several others were still detained in the police station.
Lu Wudi's grandfather and the old man of the Lu family are cousins. When it comes to Lu Wudi's generation, he and Lu Zhe are also cousins.
"Brother, sister-in-law, Wudi was detained by the police for a whole night. He has never suffered such hardship since he was a child. You love him and are the elders who watched him grow up. You definitely don't want to see him suffer." The woman with a sad face is Lu Wudi's mother He Yun.
Last night she learned that her son was detained by the police, so she immediately sent a lawyer to rescue him, but she was unexpectedly rejected.
After some investigation, she found out that the person who called the police was the little princess of the Su family.
She usually relies on the Lu family and has always been the center of attention, but that is only limited to some small wealthy families. When facing the Su family, they can only rely on Lu Chen to resist.
He Yun cried, "Brother, please send someone to rescue Wudi as soon as possible. The child must have suffered a lot in there."
Lu Chen leaned lazily against the back of the sofa, with one arm resting on Wen Ya's shoulder.
Hearing He Yun's words, Lu Chen sneered, "Su Shengguo called me last night. He said that if I take charge of this matter, he will compete with me for the project in City S."
He Yun was stunned, and then she heard Lu Chen say, "After the project in City S is launched, it will be worth at least 1 billion. Is Lu Wudi worth it?"
This is Lu Chen's personality. Except for Wen Ya, he shows no mercy to anyone. Sometimes he can be so sharp-tongued that he can make people angry to death.
Even though she knew that Lu Chen had a hateful personality, He Yun was still so angry that her neck turned red.
She took a deep breath, endured it, and turned to beg Wen Ya, "Sister-in-law, your good nephew has been detained for a whole night. He has been spoiled since he was a child. How can he bear the environment in the police station?"
At this time, Lu Zhe came down from upstairs.
Maybe it was because of the frank talk with Su Ci last night that all the inferiority and darkness weighing on him disappeared.
At this time, Lu Zhe's face was still stiff and cold, but his handsome eyebrows relaxed, and he looked even more handsome and outstanding.
He was wearing a white shirt, with his back straight, and walked down the stairs slowly and leisurely. After all, he was raised in a wealthy family, and compared to before, Lu Zhe had a more noble temperament.
"Son, are you going out?" Seeing her son, Wen Ya no longer had the heart to listen to He Yun's complaints.
"Well, there's something going on at the company, so I'll go over there." After saying that, Lu Zhe politely nodded to the guest He Yun.
Wen Ya asked with concern: "Will you come back for dinner tonight? I'll have someone prepare your favorite dish."
Lu Zhe smiled, "Thank you, Mom. I'll be back for dinner tonight."
"Today is the weekend, my nephew is still going to the company?" He Yun's voice was a little high.
Wen Ya's son was lost a long time ago, and she didn't expect to find him again after so many years.
When Lu Zhe was found, the Lu family held a private family dinner to introduce Lu Zhe's identity to them.
At that time, she discovered that Lu Zhe's features looked very similar to Lu Chen, but Lu Zhe looked very cold, with a wild nature of someone who had been raised outside, and did not look like a rich family kid.
Now seeing Lu Zhe again, He Yun discovered that in just such a short period of time, the temperament of this little nephew who was raised outside had completely changed.
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in He Yun's eyes.
She curled her lips in disdain.
He Yun found out that Lu Chen and Wen Ya's son suffered from ALS. She had learned that ALS was one of the seven incurable diseases in the world and could not be cured even with money.
She was originally afraid that Lu Zhe, who came back unexpectedly, would compete with her son for the family property, but she felt relieved after knowing that the other party would not live for many years.
However, looking at Lu Zhe, who was tall and had a good complexion at this moment, one could not tell that he was suffering from a terminal illness.
If she hadn't asked someone to investigate and found out that Wen Ya and Lu Chen had sent people everywhere to look for experts in treating ALS, and that Lu Zhe really had ALS and would not live long, how could she be so relaxed
Wen Yamingyan had a big smile on her face. "My son works very hard. I asked him to take a good rest but he refused. He was always focused on his work."
How could He Yun not understand what Wen Ya meant? Was she mocking her Wudi for only knowing how to eat, drink and have fun
What does it matter if Wen Ya is proud now? Won't her son still die in the future
Won’t the Lu family have to find another heir after taking over their huge fortune
In the Lu family, only her son has the closest blood relationship with Mr. Lu. How can the younger generations of other branches compare to her son
In the end, Wen Ya and Lu Chen still have to rely on her son.
Thinking this way, He Yun was very confident. "Sister-in-law, you haven't promised me about Wudi yet. It was obviously that waiter who was blind and dared to hit Wudi last night. Wudi taught him a lesson. Why is that waiter going unpunished while my Wudi is being arrested?"
Su Ci told Lu Zhe what happened yesterday.
Hearing He Yun's words, Lu Zhe spoke up: "That waiter was Aunt Su's guest. Last night, Lu Wudi took his colleague into the private room and molested him, and also restricted his freedom. Aunt Su's guest came to the rescue, which angered Lu Wudi, and Lu Wudi had a group of people beat him up."
Lu Zhe repeated what Su Ci told him and did not allow He Yun to distort the facts.
He Yun was stunned. She didn't expect Lu Zhe to know the whole story so clearly.
She was a little annoyed. "Nephew, you and Wudi are both members of the Lu family, brothers. You should help the Lu family. How can you speak for outsiders?"
"If you do something wrong, you should be punished." Lu Zhe thought of Su Ci's puffy cheeks when she mentioned this matter, and pursed his lips slightly, "The Lu family can't cover the sky with one hand. I hope Lu Wudi will not use the name of the Lu family to do something illegal outside in the future."
He turned around and said to his parents, "I'm going to get busy now."
Wen Ya smiled and nodded, "Go ahead."
He Yun glared angrily. She didn't expect that Lu Zhe, who came back halfway, would be so stubborn in accusing her son
"Haha, my little nephew must have just returned to the Lu family not long ago. He doesn't have any sense of family affection and doesn't know what brotherhood is." He Yun couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.
Wen Ya loves her son the most. Ever since her son came back, even Lu Chen has been far behind him. How could she tolerate anyone saying anything bad about her son
"Lu Chen and I only have one child, so it's normal that he doesn't understand brotherhood." There was a hint of pride on Wen Yaming's face. She was not stupid, so how could she not know what He Yun had been planning all these years
Is it nothing more than fantasizing about her useless son inheriting the Lu family
It’s too early to dream.
He Yun's expression turned ugly. What Wen Ya meant by this sentence was that Lu Zhe and Lu Wudi were not brothers.
Wen Yacai ignored how embarrassed He Yun looked. She deliberately yawned and said, "We can't help you with Wudi's matter. Why don't you go to the Su family to plead for mercy? After all, it was Wudi who did something wrong."
"Brother, sister-in-law, how can you only listen to our nephew? He was not there last night and he only heard it from others. What he said may not be true." He Yun was very unhappy.
Wen Ya pursed her red lips and said, "Whatever the baby says, we believe it. He is my son, what's wrong with that?"
Lu Chen saw his wife yawning. He didn't care about He Yun's feelings. How dare a side branch come to his house to make decisions? If it weren't for the old man's feelings, he wouldn't want to waste time listening to nonsense here.
Lu Chen directly called the housekeeper over, "Madam needs to rest, please send the guests away."
"Yes, sir." The butler walked in front of He Yun, "Please."
He Yun is afraid of Lu Chen after all. The most feared person in the Lu family is not Mr. Lu, but Lu Chen, who has a casual and unpredictable personality. When he gets ruthless, he can kill you at any time.
He Yun could only leave feeling frustrated.
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows, "What the hell, is a piece of trash worth wasting my time on?" Lu Chen had never looked at his cousin Lu Wudi straight in the eye.
After saying that, Lu Chen turned and looked at his wife.
A second ago, he still had a look of disdain on his face, but at this moment, Lu Chen's expression changed instantly. He raised his peach blossom eyes and said to Wen Ya in a very servile manner: "Yaya, you must be sleepy, I'll help you go upstairs to rest."
Wen Ya raised her chin and let her husband put his hand on her waist and help her upstairs.
... ...
In September, the weather was still hot, there was no wind at all, and pedestrians on the road were sweating profusely after walking for a while.
Su Ci got out of the car and opened her umbrella immediately.
She loved beauty very much and was reluctant to expose her snow-white skin to the scorching sun.
Today is the first day of school.
A banner welcoming new students was hung high at the entrance of the university. There were many new students pulling suitcases around. Not far away, there was a volunteer booth where some senior students provided help to the new students.
Su Ci came to go through the admission procedures, collect some military training supplies, and attend a class meeting.
She was wearing an exquisite white dress with floral patterns, had fair skin, and was holding an umbrella. She was so beautiful that one couldn't take their eyes off her.
Su Ci walked in the aisle at a leisurely pace, looking very relaxed. She was completely different from the students around her who were carrying luggage, pulling suitcases, busy and sweaty.
The freshmen passing by couldn't help but secretly look at her.
"Su Ci!"
Not long after they walked away, someone called Su Ci.
She looked back and saw a girl pulling a white suitcase, sweating profusely, walking towards her quickly.
Oh, it’s the tool Shen Xue.
Ever since Lu Zhe came to City B, Su Ci no longer had any use for Shen Xue, and she almost forgot about her existence.
"I'm so tired." Shen Xue came to Su Ci panting, "I didn't expect that I would go to the same university as you. We are so destined."
Su Ci nodded, "A little bit indeed."
"However, it's not just me. There are several people from our school who also came to B University." Shen Xue slowly steadied her breathing.
Su Ci is not a student of No. 1 Middle School, and she is not very interested in other people.
Shen Xue curled her lips and said, "Zhao Youyou and Fu Baili are also here at B University."
She had liked Fu Baili, and Zhao Youyou was her love rival, so of course Shen Xue was concerned about which university they applied to.
Hearing this, Su Ci frowned.
Unexpectedly, the two male and female protagonists, Fu Baili and Zhao Youyou, also came.
She didn't like Zhao Youyou because her character was not very good. Most importantly, whenever she remembered that Lu Zhe died for Zhao Youyou in his previous life, she didn't like him from the bottom of her heart.
