Chapter 384: Invited to the Lu Family
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“My grandfather once arranged a marriage with his comrade on the battlefield,” Xia Wan said calmly. “That comrade is Lu Lin’s grandfather and also your father.
“Previously, Lu Lin went to my hometown and wanted to force our family to hand over the token so that he could take it back and tell the old master of the Lu family that we were unwilling to get married.
“Of course, I really don’t like him. However, I took the initiative to give up on this matter, and he forced me to give up.
“He even hurt my family and slept with my cousin, Xia Ru.
“Although this is considered a matter of mutual consent between the two of them, I’m the one who arranged the marriage with him. Isn’t he slapping me in the face by getting together with my cousin?
“If I hadn’t seen you, I would have thought that the Lu family was like Lu Lin and had no upbringing.”
Although Xia Wan said these things with a smile, her words were completely impolite. Even the Lu family’s upbringing was directly involved.
If someone else had said that, Lu Jing would definitely be unhappy and angry.
Lu Lin being unreasonable was his own business. Not everyone in the Lu family was like Lu Lin.
Especially since the Lu family’s current achievements were all thanks to his father.
Old Master Lu’s reputation could not be blasphemed by others.
But now, not only could Lu Jing not pursue Xia Wan’s words, he even felt guilty.
If Lu Lin didn’t want to marry her, he could have just told his father directly. He actually used such a forceful method.
Although the Lu family was powerful and rich, apart from the Lu family’s status, Lu Lin was indeed far from Xia Wan in terms of personal conditions.
Moreover, he could feel that an independent and clear-headed girl like Xia Wan was not someone Lu Lin could control.
What was worse was that Lu Lin actually slept with Xia Wan’s cousin. This was simply a disgraceful act.
Lu Jing pulled a long face and scolded Lu Lin, “You actually did such a despicable and shameless thing. You’re simply throwing the Lu family’s face to the ground for others to trample on.”
“When I first met her, I didn’t know she was from the Xia Family.” Lu Lin defended himself. “She hit my bodyguard at that time.”
“Then why don’t you tell everyone why I hit your bodyguard?” Xia Wan looked at him.
“Isn’t it because you stopped me on the street and wanted to force me to accompany you back to the hotel?
“You think that people from our small place have no power and influence, so you can bully them as you please and taint the innocence of a little girl as you please.
“Why can’t I teach you a lesson when you are of such low character?”
Lu Jing flew into a rage and slapped Lu Lin’s face.
“Nonsense! How dare you do such a thing on the street!”
Lu Jing understood Lu Lin’s mentality just by listening to Xia Wan’s description.
When he was in Beijing, Lu Lin’s girlfriend was at least willing.
Or he would go to bars, KTV, and other places to find girls to accompany him.
But at least he didn’t do anything like s.n.a.t.c.hing girls on the street or forcing them to sleep with him.
Obviously, after Lu Lin arrived in Xia Wan’s hometown, he looked down on people from small places and felt that people from small places could be easily bullied.
Lu Jing wanted to slap him again.
His father had asked him to go to the Xia family’s residence and ask them politely about their att.i.tude, and that was what he had done!
No wonder he was brought home by his father’s men last time and was locked up for two months.
At that time, he was on a business trip and did not understand what had happened. It was only after he returned home and asked the servants at home that he found out that Lu Lin had done something wrong when he went to the Xia family.
He thought that based on Lu Lin’s character, he would at most have a fight with the locals. He did not expect Lu Lin to do such a disgraceful thing.
No wonder Lu Lin’s parents never mentioned this to him. Every time they talked, the two of them would use other things to avoid this topic.
Lu Lin was stunned. He covered his face and looked at Lu Jing. “Uncle, how could you slap me in front of everyone?!”
Ever since he was young, his uncle had been very serious with him.
Occasionally, when he caused trouble, Lu Jing would hit him with a stick.
However, after he grew up, no matter how angry Lu Jing was, he would not hit him. At most, he would ask his family to limit his pocket money.
This was the first time he had been slapped in the face in public since he was born.
This was too embarra.s.sing!
