Sweet Wife in My Arms Chapter 1048

Chapter 1048 - This Is Karma

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

“Will you not step up?” Qin Xiaoyue increased her tone as though she wanted to tear Lu Yi into half, “If you won’t step up, who would? Lu Yi, Lu Qin is my younger brother.”

“I’m sorry.” Lu Yi’s voice remained cold.

“A divorce isn’t part of my job scope.”

He was a prosecutor, not a divorce lawyer.

The method used to settle Sun Yuhan’s issues would be the same for Lu Qin. Their family would not be involved in the Ye family’s matters again. It was not worth it for Ye Shuyun to argue with the Ye family for the sake of Lu Qin too.

Although Sun Yuhan had already torn their relationship apart halfway, Ye Shuyun could not bear to tear it down entirely. No matter how nasty Ye Jianguo sounded and how heartless he was dealing with all the issues, Ye Shuyun’s relationship with Ye Chuji and Xinyu had always been good. They were not strangers, but kin to her. Even if they were not related by blood, they were still related and it was not something that could be easily replaced.

If she fought for Lu Qin, then she would be included in the people going against the Ye family.

She was neither that silly nor that stupid.

“Father…” Qin Xiaoyue was irritated by Lu Yi’s nonchalant attitude. She hurriedly turned her attention to Old Master Lu who had yet to take his stand. “Father, you cannot wash your hands of this matter.”

Yes, Old Master Lu could not ignore what had happened because Lu Qin was from the Lu family. If Old Master Lu were to remain quiet when his grandson was bullied, it would be bad if things broke out. However, if Old Master Lu were to take a stand, then the entire family of the eldest son would be involved.

“What do you want me to do?”

Old Master Lu opened his eyes. He did not look good at the moment. He was obviously annoyed and frustrated. He was here to see his great-granddaughter, and not Qin Xiaoyue’s annoying face.

“What do I want you to do?” Qin Xiaoyue unconsciously raised her tone again. “Talk to the Ye family, obviously! They have hurt our Lu Qin, and now they want to get away with it? How could it be so easy for them?”

“This is an issue between Lu Qin and his wife, what has it got to do with the elderly like us? When you originally wanted a divorce with the Su family, did I say anything?”

Qin Xiaoyue was astounded, unable to react for a moment. Why did he mention about the Su family again?

When Lu Qin wanted a divorce with Su Muran who was sick, Old Master Lu did say that it was neither a righteous nor a benevolent thing to do. If anyone else treated Lu Qin that way in the future, it would be his retribution, and Old Master Lu would want to have no part in that.

Qin Xiaoyue had not cared much back then, for Su Muran was extremely ill. Even if her disease was cured, she could never deliver a child in the future. Did they want their Lu Qin to go heirless?

Besides, her Lu Qin was a great person. He was the only one who could abandon women, but not the other way around. The granddaughter that the Ye family just recently acknowledged was also whole-heartedly in love with him.

Yet, everything she had taken for granted was now going against her, turning into hard slaps on her face. Lu Qin still could not escape from his destiny of going heirless, and there was no one else to blame but himself.

The way he had treated Su Muran back then was the way Sun Yuhan was treating him now. This was his karma, his retribution.

Qin Xiaoyue was dumbfounded. The family of the eldest child remained unsympathetic, while Old Master Lu could not care less. All of these made her feel extremely wronged.

Hence, she covered her face and bawled loudly. Ye Shuyun could not be bothered by her. She already considered herself compassionate when she did not kick Qin Xiaoyue out, but now the woman wanted them to go against the Ye family. Had Qin Xiaoyue gone crazy or gotten silly, or did she think that their entire family had stopped using their minds? She thought she could play them like puppets, doing all these tiring but meaningless things?

No matter how hard Qin Xiaoyue cried and made a fuss, this divorce was a matter between Lu Qin and Sun Yuhan. If Sun Yuhan wanted a divorce, they could only say that she was immoral, but it was in no way a crime.

Eventually, Old Master Lu and Lu Jin could not bear the headache. If they were to let the commotion continue, their home would be restless. If she were to come and make a fuss every day, the three children would have to stay in their rooms all the time.

Although they said they would not bother about the issue, not long after, they still sat in front of Ye Jianguo to discuss the matter. However, Ye Jianguo was not respectful toward them and he did not even acknowledge Lu Jin’s presence.

Even so, Lu Jin too had no desire to speak with him, but Lu Jin was only there as a representative of the younger generation. He was there to accompany Old Master Lu, just like Ye Chuji, who stood aside nonchalantly.

He exchanged a glance with Ye Chuji. True enough, they saw eye to eye.

Thereafter, they nodded to acknowledge each other before returning to their own thoughts. Both of them did not want to meddle in the issue. They would gladly accept any decision made, for it was still an issue for the two old men.

Their function here was to watch over the two old men, to prevent them from fighting if they could not reach consensus. Their purpose was to stop the old men from arguing and getting them home after.

Whereas the final conclusion they came was that this was an undiscussable issue. The matter had nothing to do with the law because it was a matter of morals. For someone like Lu Qin, any woman who was willing to marry him could only be gifted with the Chinese saying, ‘Husbands and wives are birds of the same forests. When disaster strikes, each will fly their own way.’

However, Ye Jianguo was still smart enough to provide Lu Qin with a large sum of money as compensation. Even if Lu Qin could no longer act in the future, the money would be enough for him to spend for the rest of his life.

This was the best compensation Old Master Lu could fight for Lu Qin. He could not do much on the other things. He could not possibly hold a knife against Sun Yuhan’s neck and force her to not divorce Lu Qin.

This was just like how the Su family had helplessly compromised with the Lu family. Thereafter, the Su family had migrated overseas and no one knew what happened to them after. Some said that Su Muran had passed, others said that she had found a suitable bone marrow and was saved. Nevertheless, whatever happened to them had nothing to do with the Lu family anymore.

And now, Lu Qin was met with the same situation as the Su family. He could only swallow and submit to the humiliation, for they were powerless aside for their moral high ground. However, if the Su family were around at this point of time, they would probably say, “This is karma.”

Although Qin Xiaoyue was reluctant, she could only accept the money at the end of the day. There was nothing they could do as the Ye family was too wealthy and powerful, a family they could not afford to offend unless the eldest son’s family was willing to go against them entirely. The eldest son’s family owed half his income to the Ye family’s airport construction. This large profit was all thanks to the huge investments that Yan Huan had piled in back then.
