Chapter 1042: Three Conditions
Chen Shanjin was furious when he thought of that. He did not believe that Chen Feitang would have the guts to make a move against Lu Xingzhi.
“You found Chen Lanying, right, Chen Feitang?” Lu Xingzhi put his hands in his pockets and looked down at his toes. Then, he looked up at Chen Feitang for a second. “Find someone in the army to manipulate those rumors. You can handle that, Chen Feitang. Then, tell Chen Lanying to go to the army and apologize to Jiang Yao. You will also withdraw from the military.”
“I will not agree to any of it!” Chen Feitang roared angrily after she heard that. “Lu Xingzhi, do you dare swear that you did not pretend to be injured so that Chen Lanying would cancel the engagement so you can marry Jiang Yao?”
Just as Chen Feitang finished speaking, Old Master Chen raised his hand and slapped her again. “Shut up! Get out and stand there. Don’t enter or leave without my permission!”
“Dad, it’s too cold outside—” Chen Shanjin was angry, but she was his daughter after all. He felt sorry for her.
“You shut up too!” Old Master Chen scolded Chen Shan Jin and then screamed at Chen Feitang. “Get Out! Now! Don’t make me repeat myself!”
Chen Shanjin knew that his father’s temper had peaked. He pushed Chen Feitang upstairs hurriedly and said, “Dad, Feitang is a girl. We have to let her go upstairs and change her clothes. Otherwise, people are coming and going at the gate. It won’t look good.”
After he said that, Chen Shan Jin gave Chen Feitang a look. He sighed in relief after she made a move to go upstairs.
Old Master Chen just stood there. He only spoke to Lu Xingzhi after Chen Feitang had changed her clothes and stood in the courtyard outside the door. “Xingzhi, I know that this matter has caused great harm to you and Jiang Yao. Everything else is easy. However, right now, the Chen family only has one child, Feitang, in the army. It is too much for you to ask her to withdraw from the military.
“Xingzhi, I promise you. This is the last time. In the future, I will look after her well. I will not let her do such a ridiculous thing again.” Chen Shanjin’s voice softened with a hint of pleading.
That matter was too ridiculous. If word got out, who knew how many people would laugh at them?
The Chen family’s daughter, Chen Feitaing, had attacked Lu Xingzhi behind his back. Who would not laugh for days if they knew about that?
Those who did not know would think that the Chen family and the Liang family had turned against each other.
“The last time?” Lu Xingzhi raised his eyebrows. “Who can guarantee that this will be the last time?”
Chen Shanjin was speechless. He knew what Lu Xingzhi meant. Guarantee? How could he guarantee it? After all, it was not as if Chen Feitang had no criminal record.
After a moment of silence, Old Master Chen said, “I promise you that it will be the last time. If there is a next time, you don’t have to say it. I will personally get her out of the army and out of the Chen family.”
“Very well, I can give her another chance.” Lu Xingzhi nodded as if he was willing to negotiate. However, he continued to say, “I have a few conditions. Firstly, Chen Feitang is not allowed to join the special forces. Secondly, I want to see w.a.n.g Quansheng’s name among the retired veteran list next year. Thirdly, get Chen Lanying to the army and make her apologize to my wife and me in front of everyone. As for Chen Feitang’s apology, it’s fine. It’s not sincere anyway. What’s the point of having that? Besides, my wife doesn’t want to see her either.”
Who would not know how to be disgusting? Lu Xingzhi had never thought of getting Chen Feitang to withdraw from the military, but it would be good if she did not join the special forces.
Lu Xingzhi’s most important goal was to move forward. He would never let Chen Feitang join the special forces. Jiang Yao would want to visit him in the army, so if Chen Feitang were there, it would only make Jiang Yao unhappy. He wanted to prevent such a situation.
