Chapter 36: Does Mr. Lu Know

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Wh-what did you say?” Gu Zimu was flabbergasted. He couldn’t believe it. “Child, this child is Lu Qingzhuo’s? !”

How was that possible? !

His brain was working at full speed as he thought about the possibility of Lu Qingzhuo and He Youran.

He Youran had done some shameful things five years ago, stabbed Chen Meiyu, and was kicked out of the He family. After she was released from prison four years ago, she suddenly disappeared. After she came back, she had completely changed. Whether it was her appearance or her temperament, she was completely different from before. If she hadn’t been doing well these past few years, it definitely wouldn’t be like this.

Who had been supporting her these past few years?

This time, when she returned to Rong city, Lu Qingzhuo was also there.

When He Youran was being bullied in the hospital, Lu Qingzhuo appeared in time.

All these signs showed that things between them weren’t that simple.

As for saving old madam Lu, it might be an excuse for them to keep it a secret. After all, the Lu family and the He family of the capital still had an engagement.

The more Gu Zimu thought about it, the more he felt that it was true. The way he looked at He Youran instantly changed.

If He Youran really gave birth to a son for Lu Qingzhu, with Lu Qingzhuo’s current health, madam Lu would definitely treat He Youran as a treasure. The Lu family might even break off the engagement with the He family of imperial capital!

Gu Zimu’s heart was in turmoil. It was difficult for him to accept it at the moment.

Moreover, if the child really was Lu Qingzhuo’s, it would prove that He Youran had been together with Lu Qingzhuo five years ago. When they were still engaged, He Youran had betrayed him!

“B * tch!”

The more Gu Zimu thought about it, the angrier he got. He raised his hand and was about to slap He Youran.

He Youran swiftly slapped his hand away. The force of her hand was even comparable to the force of Gu Zimu’s rage!

Gu Zimu was stunned.

“Mr. Gu, think before you do anything. After all, the Gu family is not stronger than the Lu family.”

He Youran used a shield and used it smoothly. She even threatened him very naturally.

Even though she felt a little sorry for Lu Qingzhuo.

He Youran apologized to Lu Qingzhuo in her heart, but her face was calm and strong.

The pressure from someone in a higher position made Gu Zimu, who was already afraid of the Lu family, lower his aura in an instant.

His chest rose and fell violently. After a long silence, he finally said something fierce.

“He Youran, I will remember today’s humiliation!”

Seeing him leave angrily, He Shouxin carefully poked He Youran’s palm and whispered,

“He Xiaoran, you used Mr. Lu’s technique so smoothly, does he know?”

He Youran: “…”

“He should thank me, right?” He Youran said without much confidence.

She wasn’t someone who liked to gossip, but now that she was in Rong city, all sorts of gossip came to her.

Judging from the attitude of the He family in the capital, they weren’t that satisfied with the marriage with the Lu family. Lu Qingzhuo was also cold and indifferent, so he probably didn’t have much interest in He Yaoxing either.

Both of them didn’t want to marry. They were only tied together because of the marriage custom. Who knows, after what she did, both the He and Lu families would be free?

“Thankful that you made him lose his wife?” He Shouxin hit her mercilessly.

“He doesn’t like He Yaoxing.”

“Even if he doesn’t like He Yaoxing, she’s still his wife.”

“It’s not like he can use his thing.”

“It’s not like you’ve tried. How do you know?”

“…”

He Youran looked over with her dead fish eyes, and He Shouxin immediately shut up.

Now that she thought about it, wasn’t she a little too much? Using Lu Qingzhuo as a shield without Lu his consent might cause him trouble. She only hoped that Lu Qingzhuo wasn’t so well-informed and didn’t know that she had made a mistake.

Otherwise, she could only think about how she could help the Lu family once more, so that Lu Qingzhuo would be willing to help her clean up this mess!
