Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Seeing that Lu Ang had returned, a man in his forties walked out of the car. He looked very gloomy, especially in his eyes. He bears a close resemblance to a poisonous snake.
Lu Ang looked at the man and asked, “Brother, why are you here?”
Yun Ni didn’t expect the man to be Lu Ye’s father, Lu Dell. Was he here because of Lu Ye? But hasn’t it already been more than a month? Wasn’t it a little late for him to come at this time?
Lu Ang looked at Yun Ni and gestured for her to go upstairs and rest.
Yun Ni nodded. She thought that if Lu Dell came over and had something to talk about, it might not be convenient for her to be in the picture. She did not say anything and turned around to leave.
After Yun Ni left, Lu Dell said, “I was out on a business trip and did not know that Lu Ye had done something bad. I just came back today and went to the hospital to check on him. He is recovering well.”
“So, you’re looking to get even with me?” Lu Ang sat on the sofa and looked at his brother.
“No, I’ve already taught that b*stard a lesson myself. It’s only a matter of time before Miss Yun officially becomes a member of our family. Lu Ye should learn his lesson. However, I heard that the family head intends to give you 20% of his shares. I remember that you promised me that you would never
compete with me for the right to inherit the Lu Group for the rest of your life. I wonder if this is still true?” Lu Dell raised his eyes and looked at Lu Ang sharply.
The atmosphere suddenly changed. Yun Ni, who was at the corner of the stairs, could feel the tension. She stared at Lu Ang from behind nervously.
At this moment, Yun Ni felt that Lu Ang must be so lonely.
Lu Ang and Lu Dell were of the same father but a different mother. Their father doted on Lu Ang because of his status as the youngest son. However, as the eldest, Lu Dell was groomed to be the heir since he was young. This caused the father-son relationship, which was not close, to begin with, to be
even colder. Lu Dell had always addressed Lu Wenguo as ‘family head’ only and never as ‘father.’ He would not allow the 20% of shares to be given to Lu Ang.
Yun Ni had long known that Lu Ang’s life in the Lu family was difficult, but she did not expect it to be as difficult as this. It seems that the relationship of the Lu family members was not much better than hers.
After a long time, Lu Ang finally replied.
“Don’t worry. I promised since long ago and won’t go back on them. I didn’t know that Father wanted to give me shares. If I had known, I would have refused without hesitation.”
“I’m relieved to hear that. Then I’ll go back first. By the way, congratulations to you for being engaged!” Lu Dell said as he got up and left.
Yun Ni went back upstairs, feeling very complicated.
Although Lu Wenguo was still in good health, he was already very old. It was hard to say when he would fall one day.
‘When Lu Dell gains power, he will ostracize Lu Ang.
Yun Ni knew she also had to contribute to this family. Now that she was living with Lu Ang, all the food and drinks were provided by him. She suddenly felt that she was useless.
Thinking of this, Yun Ni sent Wei Chengcheng a text message and asked if she had a part-time job to recommend.
Yun Ni thought further. If Lu Ang could not live in a big house or wear designer clothes in the future, at least he would have a wife who could earn money and share his life with him. Even if they lived a poor life, they could still have fun together.
‘As for Wei Chengcheng, she called Yun Ni directly after receiving Yun Ni’s message. The first thing she asked was, “Did Lu Ang bully you?”
“No, no, I feel that I have to rely on myself!”
“Does the Lu family even care about your monetary contribution?” Wei Chengcheng couldn’t help but roll her eyes on the other side of the phone.
“That doesn’t matter! I know you have a wide network. Can you please hurry up and recommend a job for me?”
‘Wei Chengcheng was silent for a moment before agreeing. She hung up the phone and sent a message not long after.
“There’s a night bar near the university town. I’ve already told Sister Mary, the person in charge, that you can work part-time for three hours every night. Apart from the standard hourly wage, the tips are also yours. There’s no commission.”
Yun Ni felt that this was very good. She didn’t even get a tip from her previous part-time job. However, how should she tell Lu Ang?
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Yun Ni knew it was Lu Ang, so she quickly went to open it. Lu Ang came in with a glass of milk. “Drink up and go to bed early.”
After saying that, Lu Ang turned to leave, but Yun Ni quickly stopped him.
“Lu Ang! Wei Chengcheng and I will be participating in a debate competition. We have to prepare ourselves at the university and come back a little late at night. I don’t need you to pick me up. Chengcheng has a car, so she can send me straight back.”
Lu Ang heard that Wei Chengcheng was accompanying her, so he nodded and said, “Okay, I have had a lot of work recently. Call me if there’s anything.”
Seeing that he believed her, Yun Ni secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The next day, when Yun Ni was ready to go to the university, Lu Ang handed her a phone watch and said, “If there’s any problem with the phone, this can also be used to call an emergency number.”
During the day when Yun Lisa assaulted Yun Ni, her phone got broken, and she could not make a call. Lu Ang naturally had to think of other ways. Yun Ni appreciated Lu Ang’s attentiveness and was even more determined to do what she had to do..
