Chapter 161: Dignity

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

He Yaobai’s expression was gloomy and uncertain.

He had been played by Gu Tianming!

Because of Gu Tianming’s solemn vow, he had only started the second round of paternity test with the Lu family’s branch family. God knew how much pressure he had endured and how much confidence he had, but in the end? This was simply a joke!

He Yaobai wished that he could tear Gu Tianming into a thousand pieces!

The Lu family was no longer the same as before. They were the second most powerful family in China, second only to the He family. How would the world view them if they played around and forced the Lu Family?

People would only say that the He family could not afford to play around. They were rejected the offer of a fake daughter to the Lu family. They would get angry out of humiliation and interfere in the Lu family’s affairs, trying to harm the future leader of the Lu family!

The He family would become a despicable being in the eyes of everyone. No matter how rich they were, no matter how high their status was, it would be difficult for them to get rid of the label of being jealous!

He Yaobai clenched his fists so tightly that his teeth were almost crushed!

The business world was full of deceit. However, people like them who deliberately disrupted other families and interfered with the succession of the family would only be looked down upon by others.

A dignified business tycoon did not fight in the business world and instead meddled in family business.

It was fine if they meddled in family problems. At most, people would say that they had a small view. However, the most important thing was that they had done so many small tricks and had yet to find any evidence against the Lu family!

“Yaobai, what’s wrong?” He Yousi could not help but ask worriedly when he saw the change in He Yaobai’s expression.

“Father…” He Yaobai looked at him when he heard the voice. His mature and handsome face showed a rare hint of confusion.

He Yousi had already guessed something when he saw him like this.

He sighed in his heart and patted He Yaobai’s hand.

“Let’s announce the results.”

“But…” He Yaobai hesitated and said in a low voice, “But father, I messed up.”

He Yaobai had taken over the He family for many years, but this was the first time he had suffered such a huge loss.

“You’re eager for success, so it’s inevitable that you’ll be ill-considered and be used by others.” He Yousi did not think much of it.

Young people, after all, how could they be called young people if they did not fall? Only when they had suffered a loss would they learn a lesson.

He Yaobai was quick-witted and his methods were tough. However, he was too arrogant and felt that everything was under his control. This kind of confidence was good, but it would be because of his preconceived ideas and lack of consideration.

For example, when it came to the Lu family.

He Yaobai thought that the Lu family was already like a turtle in a jar. It was only a matter of time before they took down the Lu family. However, even if a hundred insects died, they wouldn’t freeze. No matter how down and out the Lu family was, if they really gave it their all, the He family wouldn’t be able to gain much from it.

He Yaobai was really too aggressive this time.

He knew his adopted son’s shortcomings, but he did not say it out loud. This was so that he could discover it himself.

He Yaobai was a smart person. He believed that this matter regarding the Lu family would allow He Yaobai to gain some enlightenment.

“Since things have come to this, we should just do it openly. This is the He family’s dignity,” He Yousi said indifferently. He did not intend to criticize He Yaobai.

“Yes.” He Yaobai appeared to be very powerful to others, but to He Yousi, he was always like a child.

He admired He Yousi, respected He Yousi, and it was precisely because of this admiration that he especially wanted to gain He Yousi’s recognition.

However, he had messed up this time. He really did not have the face to face He Yousi.

He was dejected and confused, but he had no choice but to pull himself together.

The people from the Lu family and the media were watching as well. He could not afford to make a mess.

That’s right, he could not make a mess.

Not only could he not make a mess, but he also wanted the people who used him to pay the price!

Thinking of this, He Yaobai’s gaze suddenly sharpened.

“The result of the test is…”

He held the appraisal form and enunciated each word clearly:

“Lu Shouxin is indeed Lu Qingzhuo’s son.”
