luo chenxi glanced at her with a blank expression.
“if there’s nothing else, we’re going to have dinner soon. we won’t keep you. someone … send the guests off!”
“hey … wait, wait!”
luo xiudi was anxious when she heard that luo chenxi was going to chase her away. she spoke hastily.
“cough, cough, chenxi, why are you in such a hurry? besides, we’re a family, so we can talk about it after dinner … okay, okay, i’ll tell you now!”
!!
luo xiudi shuddered when she was swept by luo chenxi’s icy cold gaze. she dared not beat around the bush anymore and could only state her intention.
” that … chenxi, you should know that ever since your grandfather pa.s.sed away, your uncle has not made much progress in his career. our family’s expenses are high, so he could only start a company and do some business to earn money to support the family … ”
luo chenxi felt that something was amiss upon hearing his words. she could not help but raise her brows.
“what? uncle had a company outside? when did this happen? i remember that he has been working in the city government and has never resigned, right? then how could he open a company outside? this is illegal!”
according to the relevant laws and regulations of the country, once such a situation was confirmed, he would be fired.
” ahem, ahem! ” luo xiudi quickly said, ” well … your uncle had no choice! ” do you know that our lu family lives in such a big house? just the servants alone cost more than a hundred thousand a month! and your sister, she’s a big girl now. she needs to buy some pretty clothes and jewelry and dress up so that she can marry well like you, right? your uncle is doing this for the family!”
luo chenxi knitted her brows. before she could say anything, luo xiudi had changed the topic in a hurry.
“anyway, your uncle’s business has been doing well, but recently, there’s been a problem … he … he was framed and sent to prison! now, the lawyer told us that if we can compensate him with a large sum of money, he can get a lighter sentence or even be released on the spot. otherwise, he … he will have to go to jail for several years …”
luo xiudi’s words were very abrupt, completely skipping over the key point of what crime lu haoxuan had committed.
he seemed to be hoping that luo chenxi would ignore this point.
however, luo chenxi was not a fool. how could she possibly not notice that?
even if luo xiudi didn’t mention it, she could guess that not only did lu haoxuan break the rules and start a company outside, but he also used the power in his hands to seek huge benefits for himself.
otherwise, even if they were found out, they would only be fired, not be pursued for criminal responsibility.
luo chenxi sneered,’so? what does what you’ve said have to do with me?”
luo xiudi did not expect that luo chenxi would have such a cold att.i.tude as if the matter had nothing to do with her. she became anxious at once.
“chenxi, haoxuan is your uncle after all! how can you not care about him? didn’t he treat you well when you were young? how can you be so ungrateful!”
“not bad? hehe …”
the coldness in luo chenxi’s eyes deepened.
compared to luo xiudi and lu yajing, lu haoxuan didn’t have the word ” bad ” written all over his face.
however, her ‘uncle’ was the first person who clamored to kick luo chenxi and lu wenjun out back then.
it was all because great-grandfather lu had said that he would leave some of the properties in the family to lu wenjun, which had affected his interests.
