512 As if Nothing Had Happened
Qi Yuchuan hesitantly revealed his age.
‘I was right. He’s really about the same age as Lu Gan.’
Lu Heng’s heart burned up.
Lu Gan was mostly taken care of by their mother. When she passed away, Lu Heng took over.
Lu Heng never blamed Lu Hongyong for his absence. He just thought his father was busy.
‘I shouldn’t complain and be more understanding.’
Besides, Lu Heng did not mind. Lu Gan was his precious little brother. It was only natural to take care of him.
Unexpectedly, Lu Hongyoung was having an affair with another woman! Worse of all, this happened around the time Lu Heng’s mother was pregnant.
Now, Lu Hongyong’s past had come back to haunt his family.
‘What would Lu Gan think if he found out? I don’t know what he’ll do. He’s too unpredictable.’
Lu Heng immediately made a decision. He stopped talking with Qi Yuchuan and went home.
That night, Lu Heng had a fierce quarrel with Lu Hongyong.
“Get Qi Yuchuan out of our lives. Lu Gan can never find out.”
Lu Hongyong had never seen Lu Heng act so aggressively. He tried to comfort him, “Qi Yuchuan won’t influence our lives. All my assets will still belong to you and Lu Gan in the future.”
However, Lu Heng refused to back down. His priority was Lu Gan’s feelings.
In the end, Lu Hongyong had no choice but to agree.
When Lu Hongyong asked Qi Yuchuan, he was in disbelief. He cried and begged, but nothing worked.
“My life hasn’t been easy. Everyone laughs at me for being an illegitimate son.”
Upon hearing that, Lu Hongyong’s heart softened. After all, Qi Jiajia was his first love in college. If she was not sickly, he would have married her instead of Lu Heng and Lu Gan’s mother.
In the end, Lu Hongyong could not bring himself to make Qi Yuchuan leave.
Subsequently, Qi Yuchuan went to look for Lu Heng. Lu Hongyong did mention all of this happened because of him.
‘I just need to convince Lu Heng. Once I do, I’ll be acknowledged as part of their family.’
Qi Yuchuan wondered how he should act in front of Lu Heng.
‘I’ll cry and beg him to accept me.’
He followed through his thoughts.
“Big brother, I’ll do anything to be accepted. I just don’t want to live alone anymore… Please…”
Unfortunately, there was not a trace of pity on Lu Heng’s face. It was as if he had just watched a boring show. He asked coldly, “Are you done? Can you leave now?”
“Big brother …”
“I only have one brother and that’s not you. Now, stop disturbing me.”
Lu Heng called the bodyguard.
Qi Yuchuan stood outside the door, unable to accept the outcome.
‘Why did Lu Heng act like that? He was supposed to be the most gentle and reasonable person in the Lu family. How did this happen? I’m also his younger brother. Yet, he could not even spare me a glance. Am I really that undesirable?’
At that moment, Qi Yuchuan became jealous and resentful towards the two brothers. He lowered his head to Lu Heng but was only perceived with disgust, disdain, and indifference.
‘We’re all Lu Hongyong’s sons. What right does he have to be so high and mighty? How could he treat me like this?’
Qi Yuchuan felt that he deserved part of the Lu family’s fortune.
‘I’ll take everything back! No one will dare to look down on me again!’
Hence, Qi Yuchuan began plotting.
Meanwhile, Lu Heng tried his best to cover up for Lu Hongyong and acted as if nothing happened.
Not long after, disaster befell.
