Chapter 712 An Unfilial Son
Hearing his son’s question, Luo Jiachi sneered, “What do you think?”
“But Xu Baoli…” Luo Chen felt incredible, “But I have never seen the Lu Family pay attention to Xu Baoli before.”
Hearing his son’s defense, Luo Jiachi became more furious. He slapped his hand on the chair hard and said, “Without checking Xu Baoli’s background, you harmed her. How stupid you are! How can I trust you and hand over the Luo Family to you?”
Luo Chen had nothing to say in reply.
However, he heard that his father did not trust him and would not give him the Luo Family.
He frowned as his heart became dark. He took a step forward and looked at his father, “Father, you have never intended to hand over the Luo Family to me, have you?”
“You are too impulsive.” As Luo Jiachi realized that the conversation had reached this point, he did not want to continue beating around the bush.
After Luo Xi got married, Luo Jiachi felt it was time to lead him to forge a career in the Luo Family.
He could not let Luo Chen suppress the kid all the time.
However, when Luo Jiachi was thinking those things, Luo Chen clenched his fists as the panic and anger in his heart swelled up in a heartbeat.
His brother had been dead for a long time. He should be the owner of the Luo Family. What the h.e.l.l was Luo Xi, an ignorant brat?
“Father, are you going to hand over the Luo Family to Luo Xi?”
Luo Jiachi did not speak, indicating that he acquiesced.
Luo Chen opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he could not say anything.
He only nodded and said, “Since you have made the decision, as your son, I won’t defy you. However, father, when you hand over the Luo Family to Luo Xi, I hope you can leave me leeway so that my nephew and I will not turn against each other.”
What Luo Chen said was exactly what Luo Jiachi was brooding over.
One was his son while the other was his grandson.
Over the years, he had never expressed his att.i.tude, the purpose of which was to keep the relationship between his son and his grandson from becoming strained.
He was extremely surprised that his son was now able to talk to him peacefully under such circ.u.mstances.
“I have thought about everything you worry about. Trust me. I won’t let the two of you fall out and become enemies. Both of you are my families.”
“Thank you, father.” Luo Chen lowered his eyes and expressed his grat.i.tude. However, a seamy expression flashed in his eyes.
Luo Jiachi felt that his communication with his son was smooth, so he was relieved.
He checked the time on the wall clock and said to Luo Chen, “It’s late now. Let’s go out. The wedding is about to begin.”
“OK. Father, let me support you.”
Luo Chen took the initiative to support Luo Jiachi.
Such behavior was not abnormal. Luo Chen was prodigal outside, but he respected and obeyed his father at home.
After all, as long as Luo Jiachi was not dead, he could not hold the power.
Luo Chen unlocked the door of the room and helped Luo Jiachi go out.
The wedding was about to begin, so there were few people on the floor where the lounge was located.
After realizing that Luo Jiachi’s butler was not guarding the door, Luo Chen squinted.
Then, when the two reached the top of the stairs, Luo Chen suddenly pushed Luo Jiachi down the stairs.
With a bulky figure, Luo Jiachi was old and had osteoporosis. After being pushed, he was unable to make any self-help actions in shock and disbelief. He rolled down the red-carpeted stairs.
Standing at the top of the stairs, Luo Chen watched his father rolling down the stairs. He squinted and cursed in a low voice, “Silly old thing, you don’t see my years of hard work. Go to h.e.l.l!”
Luo Jiachi rolled down the stairs like a ball.
Although there was a red carpet on the stairs, the thickness of the carpet was not enough to protect people who b.u.mped into it.
Luo Jiachi’s temples and body were knocked to the edge of the steps. He was bruised all over. When he touched the ground, his brain became dim. He struggled to raise his head, stared at his son, and opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
But he could not say a word and suddenly fainted.
Mr. Zhang, the butler, led Luo Xi towards here.
As soon as they got out of the elevator, they saw Luo Chen standing at the top of the stairs.
The butler was stunned. When he saw the sinister and weird smile on Luo Chen’s face, he stiffened and screamed unconsciously, “Master Luo Chen.”
After pushing Luo Jiachi, Luo Chen was immersed in his own world, completely unaware of his surroundings.
Suddenly hearing the butler’s cry, Luo Chen immediately recovered. As his sneer quickly vanished on his face, he said, “Mr. Zhang.”
Luo Xi also saw the weird smile on Luo Chen’s face. He frowned and asked Luo Chen, “Where is grandpa?”
Luo Chen did not speak.
However, the butler saw Luo Jiachi’s handkerchief lying quietly at Luo Chen’s feet, which Luo Jiachi used when he coughed.
“Old Master…” The butler hurried to the top of the stairs.
Luo Xi also realized that something bad had happened. He followed the butler to the top of the stairs.
As soon as they reached the top of the stairs, they saw Luo Jiachi lying on the ground completely fainted.
For a moment, Luo Xi felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He could not control his emotions and turned to ask Luo Chen, “You pushed him down, didn’t you?”
“I didn’t push him. It was you.”
After speaking, Luo Chen put on a cold expression and stretched out his hand to push Luo Xi hard.
Seeing Luo Chen’s move, Mr. Zhang immediately grabbed Luo Xi.
Luo Xi did not roll down the stairs because he was pulled.
However, Mr. Zhang was not so lucky.
Seeing Luo Xi grab onto the railings, Luo Chen instantly felt he needed to kill Mr. Zhang. Otherwise, Mr. Zhang would be the only witness to help Luo Xi testify against him.
By then, he could get nothing but the infamy of an unfilial son.
He lifted his foot and kicked Mr. Zhang down the stairs.
Mr. Zhang did not expect that Luo Chen was entirely heartless.
He rolled down the stairs.
When he fell to the ground, his head knocked on the last step. Before he could react, his eyes widened, and he stopped breathing.
Seeing the current situation, Luo Xi froze.
Luo Chen responded quickly. Thinking that he should spare none, he wanted to push Luo Xi again to kill him.
But before he reached out, he heard Shao Xue’s voice coming, “Stop!”
Luo Chen’s movements paused.
Immediately, two hotel security guards walked out of the elevator.
Luo Xi stared at Luo Chen angrily.
However, Luo Chen’s expression changed at once, and he rushed downstairs, held Luo Jiachi’s body quickly, and cried, “Father? Father? What happened to you? Please wake up!”
When he held Luo Jiachi’s body and cried, he glanced at Mr. Zhang, “Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang. Wake up. Someone comes to save you.”
Luo Xi was shocked by the rapid change in Luo Chen’s att.i.tude.
Wearing a wedding dress, Shao Xue saw Luo Xi’s one hand grabbing the stair railings tightly and the other clenching his fist. She also realized that the situation was complicated. She rushed to Luo Xi and asked him, “How about you? What happened?”
Luo Xi immediately stared at Luo Chen who was holding Luo Jiachi’s body and yelling nervously. Luo Xi said, “He…”
Before Luo Xi could finish speaking, Luo Chen said, “You are an unfilial evil creature. After having the Shao Family’s help, you even wanted to kill your grandfather. And Mr. Zhang! Mr. Zhang!”
Luo Chen put his finger under Mr. Zhang’s nose. Then, he bounced out instantly. His face turned pale as if he had been greatly frightened.
Seeing Luo Chen’s reaction, the two security guards hurried downstairs. They touched Mr. Zhang, and one guard said with a pale face, “He is dead.”
The other one stood up immediately, took out his mobile phone, and wanted to call the police.
This should have been a happy wedding day.
Unexpectedly, such things happened.
Shao Xue’s heart was pounding. However, she thought that calling the police immediately would cause chaos.
After all, the marriage of the Shao Family and the Luo Family involved too many things.
And Luo Jiachi also wanted his grandson to get married as he hoped. The only one who did not want the wedding to be completed was Luo Chen, standing in front of her.
She said, “When you call the police, ask them to keep quiet and come in through the back door.”
She ordered the security guard seriously.
The security guards of the hotel were employees of a security company hired by the Luo Family and the Shao Family at a huge cost, which was to ensure that nothing bad would happen.
Now, facing such an accident, the security guards naturally followed Shao Xue’s orders.
Luo Chen knitted his brows and looked at Shao Xue, “It is a serious accident, but you want to silence it. You want to kill my father just like the b*stard!”
Shao Xue ignored him. She quickly took out her mobile phone and called Song Yunxuan.
After the call was answered, Shao Xue said in a low voice, “We had an accident. Luo Jiachi fell down the stairs, and his butler fell to death on the spot.”
At this time, Song Yunxuan was chatting with Lu Feng while enjoying the scenery on the opposite side of the hotel where the wedding was held.
She did not expect that something like this would happen.
Immediately, she realized that it was terrible and said to Shao Xue, “Do not make it public. Who else is there?”
“Luo Xi, Luo Chen, two security guards, and me.”
“Ask Luo Xi to block the news. Ambulance personnel and police should enter quietly through the back door. The wedding cannot be delayed. You must complete it. The reporters outside cannot know about this.”
“But…” Shao Xue felt difficult and looked at Luo Chen.
“Ask Shao Tianze to silence Luo Chen. He doesn’t want to lose the Luo Family’s help.”
Song Yunxuan put it succinctly.
After hearing these words, Shao Xue said immediately, “I understand. I’ll do it right away.”
“Good.”
After hearing Shao Xue had hung up, Song Yunxuan called Mei Qi.
Lu Feng, who was sitting across from her, raised his eyebrows, and asked, “Did Luo Chen make trouble?”
“Luo Jiachi was pushed down the stairs. His life is at stake. His butler was also pushed down the stairs and died on the spot.”
Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Lu Feng gently wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, “The wedding ceremony probably could not go on.”
“It will be completed.”
Song Yunxuan squinted her eyes, “It must be completed.”
