Chapter 233: It Doesn’t Seem to Be Real
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lu An was the eldest grandson of the Lu family. He had the t.i.tle of “little tyrant” since he was young. His unrestrained and unruly personality had always made his family could not do anything with him.
Since Lu An had already said so, those people couldn’t just go up and ask for trouble.
In the beginning, the uncles and aunties at home were quite dissatisfied with Lu An’s actions. They had been gossiping in front of the old lady.
Didn’t they accept this kind of practice? Lu An took a plane ticket and left Hong Kong. He didn’t want to be an eyesore. He was such a person that no one could control.
After Lu An left, the old lady was very anxious. She said to the whole family, “In the future if anyone has a big mouth, don’t live in this house anymore!”
The person the old lady cared about the most was still Lu An, her eldest grandson.
Even though the old lady cared about him, Lu An did not feel much warmth from family ties growing up in such a large family. What he knew more was that people were sinister and scheming for their own benefit.
Lu An couldn’t be bothered to fight for these things, but he didn’t want to suffer losses either. What should be his must be his.
As Lu Zhengze’s only son and with Lu Zhengze’s deep-seated preference for sons over daughters, his att.i.tude toward Lu An was very good every time he saw him. He was very amiable, just like the kind of good father who was devoted to his child in television dramas.
However, Lu Zhengze was not a good father. If he was, he would not have cheated on her ex-wife so early.
In the circle of wealthy families, there was always an unwritten rule. Couples could have their own lives but could not divorce. What Lu Zhengze did not expect was that Xie He would use all sorts of methods to search for evidence and even spend a lot of effort to fight a lawsuit against him. She stepped on him to get to the top and set him up.
Xie He also spoke eloquently, saying that if it weren’t for her husband’s adultery that made her heart turn ashen, she wouldn’t be so realistic that she didn’t let go of any opportunity to seek benefits for herself.
It was no longer clear who had made more mistakes back then.
At this time, the old lady was not recuperating in the hospital. Instead, she was brought back to the mansion at Repulse Bay.
When Jin Nian and Lu An went to the house together, the others were indeed not in the house. However, the number of servants and medical staff responsible for taking care of the old lady was not small at all.
To Jin Nian’s surprise, the old lady was easier to get along with than she had imagined.
Perhaps it was because she had watched a lot of Hong Kong dramas when she was young, Jin Nian always thought that this kind of wealthy old lady was mean and merciless.
The old lady of the Lu family was currently in her seventies but her health was quite good among her peers. If she hadn’t accidentally fallen down the stairs of the villa this time, she wouldn’t have had such injuries.
When Lu An led Jin Nian into the old lady’s bedroom, the old lady was lying on the bed with fully functional medical equipment beside her.
Unfortunately, the old lady was asleep.
The servant in the corner asked softly if she wanted to wake the old lady up. Lu An shook her head to indicate that there was no need.
Jin Nian didn’t dare to breathe loudly, afraid of waking up the old lady who was resting on the bed. She just stood quietly at the side and looked at the person lying on the bed.
Even though the old lady was asleep, she still looked rather kind. Her skin looked smoother and firmer than that of a 70-year-old granny, and her hair did not turn white. It was a natural black.
Jin Nian looked at the old lady in front of her and suddenly thought of her grandmother.
Jin Nian was brought up by her grandmother for a long time during her childhood, so she had a very good relationship with her grandmother.
Before Jin Nian’s grandmother retired, she was also a teacher like Teacher Tan. The house allocated by the school was close to Lu An’s grandmother’s house.
After her grandmother retired, she was bored and often played mahjong. Her relationship with Lu An’s grandmother became very good. However, Lu An’s grandmother was addicted to playing mahjong and often forgot the time.
When the two old ladies gathered to play cards, they would let Jin Nian and Lu An play together. Their friendship had started at that time, and then slowly grew. Now, their relationship could not even be stopped.
Lu An’s grandmother died of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage while playing cards. At that time, Lu An was only nine years old.
After that, Jin Nian’s grandma rarely played cards.
When she was a senior, her grandmother, who was closest to her, pa.s.sed away because of leukemia. It had only been four months since her grandmother was diagnosed with cancer and left this world.
No one knew how sad Jin Nian was at that time, but she wasn’t crying like others. She wasn’t sad on the day she found out that her grandmother had pa.s.sed away. She just felt that it hadn’t happened..
