The autumn wind is blowing, and many yellow leaves are already falling on the streets of Yanjing.
Today is a very ordinary day. For ordinary people, today is no different from usual. They still have to work hard and pick up and drop off their children in order to survive.
But for the Lu family, today's day is really special. Before eight o'clock in the morning, all four sons of the Lu family gathered together. And the old man also got up early today, although in the photos and materials
, and the reports from his subordinates, they know a lot about Li Mubai.
However, thinking of this child, Lu Pengzhan felt a sense of sadness in his heart. Among the five children, his favorite was his daughter, Lu Xuezhen. If she was not a girl, then among these children,
, she must be the most promising one.
If that bastard hadn't appeared, how could his daughter have left her hometown? If it hadn't been for that bastard, how could her grandson not have grown up under her knees.
Although he had already heard about it when the fourth child was formulating the plan, his failure to stop it was also out of resentment. He also hoped that his daughter would not be able to persevere because of this and change her mind and return home. However,
, he still underestimated his daughter's persistence and undying love.
After thinking about it, even Lu Pengzhan himself didn't know what kind of expectations he had for Li Mubai now, and what kind of mood he was in. Will that little guy call him grandpa? Will he stay?
Everything is an unknown, and Lu Pengzhan discovered for the first time that many things were not under his control. No matter how powerful and prestigious he was, when facing his family, he always had a certain
A feeling of powerlessness.
At nine fifty, Li Mubai took a taxi and arrived outside the Lu family compound. He refused the car provided by the Ding family, and also did not take the car that the Lu family came to pick her up. Instead, he took a taxi.
He followed the Lu family's car.
Along the way, his emotions were also quite complicated. He had no sense of belonging to the Lu family, but he couldn't change the fact that part of the Lu family's blood flowed in his blood. His mother was the Lu family.
The daughter and only daughter.
Until her mother died, she never forgot her identity. Although her mother did not directly express her wish, as she grew older, Li Mubai gradually understood her mother's good intentions.
However, the more he got to know and understand, the less favorable impression Li Mubai had on the Lu family. Sacrificing the happiness of his daughter for the sake of the family's interests, such a family will decline sooner or later.
When the sound of brakes sounded, Li Mubai's thoughts slowly came back.
Although it looks like this is just an ordinary courtyard house, the few people standing at the door can tell at a glance that they are all soldiers.
This may be the legendary inner guard, the Zhongnanhai bodyguard!
Thinking about it, Lu Pengzhan must be equipped with guards when he reaches this level. But Li Mubai looked at it and compared it with his own. Although Li Mubai has not received training in this area, he really has to take action.
Li Mubai didn't think he would lose to his opponent.
"Come with me."
Lu Xiaotian has long been waiting at the door for Li Mubai's arrival. Although he has a lot of reluctance in his heart, he knows that he has no say in this matter.
Li Mubai nodded, as if he had said hello to Lu Xiaotian.
After passing through the front courtyard, under the guidance of Lu Xiaotian, Li Mubai walked into the main room in the last courtyard.
There were six people sitting in the living room. In addition to the two old men sitting in the upper room, there were four middle-aged men sitting on both sides.
Li Mubai's figure became the focus of everyone in an instant, especially the old lady sitting in the first place. Before she could say anything, two groups of crystal tears filled her eyes.
No need to ask, Li Mubai also knew the identities of these two old men. However, when he stood in the center of the living room, he bowed slightly and said in a calm tone: "Hello, Chief."
Chief!
This is the title that Lu Pengzhan has heard the most, and he has adapted to it. However, when Li Mubai spit out these two words, it was like a steel cone, piercing his heart.
superior.
Although Lu Pengzhan's face looked a little ugly, the old man sitting next to him burst into tears instantly.
This is my grandson. Such a good young man, when he met his relatives, he actually called him the chief.
At that moment, the old woman felt as if her soul had been taken away. Although she still tried hard to sit on the chair, her trembling hands were holding on to the armrests of the chair, fearing that she would not be able to hold on.
"Li Mubai, how are you talking? What is your attitude?"
Lu Rulin, who was sitting at the bottom, glanced at his mother's condition and saw a bit of dissatisfaction in his father's eyes, which almost made him feel happy.
However, the expression on his face was very angry, and his voice was raised a bit. Regardless of whether Li Mubai would enter this family or not, he had to let Li Mubai understand that the Lu family was not an ordinary family.
There are a lot of rules. This can be regarded as the first lesson for Li Mubai, let's give him a show of strength.
"Comrade, have I said anything? I really want to ask you, what attitude do I need? Should I be full of flattery, kneel on the ground and kowtow to admit my mistake?"
Li Mubai raised the corner of his mouth, tilted his head, and said in a very unkind tone: "Today I finally understand what it means that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. The mouse's son, no, it is the daughter who can steal holes."
"you……"
Li Mubai's few words immediately made Lu Rulin choked up and speechless.
Everyone in the room understood what Li Mubai meant. Just yesterday, Lu Rulin's daughter asked Li Mubai to kneel in front of her and kowtow to admit his mistake. Today, this boy responded with a slap in the face, hard.
Lu Rulin's face.
"What's wrong with me? Comrade, please tell me something. I think everyone here can distinguish right from wrong, right?" Li Mubai snorted with disdain, shook his head, smiled bitterly, and murmured in a low voice:
"Maybe there are people who know right from wrong."
Although Li Mubai's mumbling voice was not loud, the silence in the room at this time was enough for everyone to hear Li Mubai's "quiet" mumbling clearly.
Distrust!
A distrust from head to toe.
How does it feel to be distrusted by your own children?
No one can feel the heartache at this moment better than the old man. Even Lu Pengzhan, who always kept his face calm when faced with the collapse of mountains, at this time, he held the armrest of the chair with one hand and made a rattling sound.
Angry! Ashamed!
Two different emotions were mixed in Lu Pengzhan's heart at this time.
"Chief, I have only one purpose for coming here today." Seeing Lu Rulin's suppressed old face turn red, he turned his head again, faced Lu Pengzhan, and knelt down abruptly.
Dong dong dong...
Li Mubai's head banged three times on the ground.
"These three heads are here to honor you on behalf of my mother, Lu Xuezhen. Thank you for your kindness in raising me."
After kowtowing, Li Mubai suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart.
He stood up, his back straight, and regardless of the dust on his pants, he turned around resolutely and walked out the door.
"Child! Don't go!"
The old lady really couldn't hold on any longer.
Originally, she felt extremely guilty about her daughter, who was very close to her heart. Now that she saw her grandson, she was like a stranger. She kowtowed three times and turned around to leave. If she didn't make a sound,
She was worried that she would never see her grandson again in her lifetime, just like the bastard who abducted her precious daughter.
I remember back then, that bastard had this expression on his face and this look in his eyes. However, after he left, her precious daughter also disappeared and left Yanjing. Until now, it has been more than twenty years.
I never saw my daughter again.
At this moment, Li Mubai's right foot had been raised. When he heard his grandmother's heart-rending call, his heart couldn't help but be stung. However, he knew that whether it was his mother or father,
They all have their own pride.
If someone hadn't interfered, mother and father would never have left Yanjing. Moreover, their father's death is still a mystery to this day.
Although Li Mubai could understand his grandma's love for his mother, and he could also understand the old man's heartache at this time. However, Li Mubai knew even more that this place did not belong to him, and his sky and home were not here.
He didn't see the kind eyes or the family affection that other people have. Even though leaving at this moment would hurt the old man's heart, if he didn't leave, he would probably be hurt even more seriously.
Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain!
Li Mubai's foot just stagnated in mid-air for a moment, not staying there for even a second. Immediately, it fell decisively. Without looking back, he raised his other foot.
"Stop! What do you think this is? A vegetable market? Are you here when you want and leave when you want?"
Lu Rulin wished that Li Mubai would leave quickly. However, at this time, he had to stand up and reprimand the boy, so that his parents would stop thinking of letting Li Mubai enter the Lu family.
He is not afraid of Li Mubai getting angry, and he is even less worried about Li Mubai getting angry at this moment.
"Don't shit here, hold your fists, and pretend to be fierce. It's not your turn whether I go or stay, whether it's before, now, or even in the future."
Li Mubai didn't even look back, he raised his right hand and extended his middle finger, his provocative tone not concealed at all.
"Li Mubai, do you dare to sit with me in the study?"
Just when Lu Rulin was about to continue what Li Mubai said, Lu Pengzhan, who was sitting at the top, said something in a deep voice that no one could believe!
