Chapter 1172: The Street Rat Everyone Wants To Beat Up
Old Master Lu did not care about Lu Yan’s feelings at all. He directly instructed the butler to open the door of the ancestral hall. All the plaques of the Lu family’s deceased direct descendants appeared in front of everyone.
The butler pushed the old master’s wheelchair forward. The old master said loudly, “My ancestors, Lu Yan pretended to be the flesh and blood of the Lu family to commit crimes. From now on, Lu Yan will be expelled from the Lu family. He no longer has anything to do with the Lu family anymore!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a few burly bodyguards went forward and dragged Lu Yan out.
Lu Yan’s face was filled with horror. He was the heir of the Lu family, and the Lu family’s bodyguards had to listen to him. However, this group of people was actually dragging him away.
No! He could not leave the Lu family!
Wasn’t there still Ji Nan? He was Grandpa’s personal a.s.sistant. If Ji Nan stopped Grandpa, Lu Yan might have a chance.
Lu Yan’s vision was blurry, and he could only weakly call out Ji Nan’s name. However, he did not notice that Ji Nan was standing behind Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng at this moment, looking at him indifferently.
The door slowly closed, and Lu Yan was thrown out by the bodyguards. Before he could react, a group of reporters swarmed over and surrounded him.
“Young Master Lu, your true ident.i.ty has been exposed and the Lu family has chased you out of the house. What are your plans next?”
“I heard that before this, you poisoned Chairman Lu. Were you going to take over the Lu family’s a.s.sets? If your ident.i.ty wasn’t exposed today, would you have poisoned Gu Zheng next?”
Lu Yan pushed the reporters away with all his might, wanting to rush out of the encirclement. The next second…
With two bangs, two eggs fell on his head in a row. Sticky liquid flowed down his hair and covered his eyes. Someone kept throwing rotten food at him, and his body emitted a stench.
He could not see to begin with. Now that his eyes were covered in egg liquid, he could only hug his head and avoid everyone’s attacks.
“Stop hitting him! He’s already fainted!”
“He’s covered in trash. It’s too disgusting!”
“d.a.m.n! You guys are too vicious. You knocked him out?”
“How could two eggs knock him out?! He must have fainted from anger!”
Lu Yan was dressed in thin clothes. His body was wet as he fell to the cold floor. He opened his eyes with difficulty, and they were filled with despair.
…
In the Lu family’s mansion.
When Qiao Xi saw Lu Yan’s miserable state at the Lu family’s door, she turned off the live broadcast. Now that everyone knew the Lu family’s background, he probably would not have the chance to make a comeback.
A few days later, Lu Bai woke up, but Lu Yan had already been expelled from the Lu family. There was also the old master of the Lu family around, so he was naturally helpless.
Qiao Xi raised her eyes slightly, and her sharp gaze landed on Lu Xiang. Lu Xiang was terrified to the point of trembling and took a few steps back in horror. “Why are you looking at me?”
Qiao Xi looked away and did not hide the disgust in her eyes. Lu Xiang was just a small character and was nothing to be afraid of. She could keep her around for a period of time.
Old Master Lu seemed to be a little tired and sighed. “Let’s start worshipping the ancestors.”
The Lu family’s ancestral worship ceremony was a big matter. Although the event was delayed, it still had to be held. Everyone completed the worship according to the rules and left the ancestral hall.
“Gu Zheng, follow me,” Old Master Lu suddenly said.
Gu Zheng and the old master entered the main residence. Qiao Xi waited quietly outside the door. She raised her eyes to look at Ji Nan, who was beside her. “In the two years you were by Lu Bai’s side, did Lu Yan not discover your ident.i.ty?”
Ji Nan hesitated for a moment before replying, “I don’t think so, but it doesn’t matter even if he did find out.”
“Yes, it’s been hard on you for the past two years. From today onward, you don’t have to continue staying by Lu Bai’s side,” Qiao Xi instructed.
“Eldest Miss, why are you suddenly telling me this? Is there something wrong?” Ji Nan asked.
“It’s nothing. I’m just a little worried about Lu Yan,” Qiao Xi said with some sympathy. “Lu Yan went from a genius to a street rat that everyone wants to beat up. I’m afraid that he’ll commit suicide. I haven’t had enough fun yet!”
Ji Nan: “…” ‘Women were too scary!’
Qiao Xi sighed. “If Lu Yan finds out that you’re one of mine, he’ll probably break down! He’ll definitely think that he’s very stupid for being played by me.”
Ji Nan: “…” ‘You probably don’t know yet, but Lu Yan’s a.s.sistant is one of President Gu’s people. If he finds out that the a.s.sistant who’s been beside him every day is one of President Gu’s men, he’ll probably break down even more!’
In the residence.
Gu Zheng sat on the sofa with a calm expression. Old Master Lu sat opposite him and said helplessly, “Ah Zheng, the Lu family has let you down all these years. I’m already old. The Lu family…”
