Chapter 439: Chapter 439: Let’s Roll Together
Nan Qiao checked Old Lu’s pulse to assess his physical condition.
“Grandpa Lu, your physical condition is much better than before. With exercise and a healthy diet, your health will keep improving.”
Old Lu bead with joy and praised Nan Qiao, “Qiaoqiao, thank you. You’re so young and have such exceptional dical skills—calling you a genius wouldn’t be an exaggeration.”
Nan Qiao smiled and said, “Grandpa Lu, you’re too kind.”
“Qiaoqiao, I’m not exaggerating. For soone to have your level of skill at your age is truly remarkable.”
Old Lu knew all too well that achieving this level of proficiency required trendous effort behind the scenes.
“Qiaoqiao, don’t take to heart what that ungrateful boy Lu Tianlei said.”
“Grandpa Lu, I’m not upset.”
Nan Qiao didn’t care about these people at all.
Giving weight to their words would only invite unnecessary grief.
Old Lu said, “I have two ginseng roots here. Qiaoqiao, take them ho and see if they’re of use.”
“Grandpa Lu, you should keep the ginseng to nourish your own health.”
“My body can’t handle ginseng anymore. You take them, see if they can be made useful in dicine.”
Just as Old Lu finished speaking, Lu Wang arrived.
“Miss Nan Qiao, I’ll take you to get the ginseng.”
Old Lu chuckled and said, “Qiaoqiao, take the ginseng and use them. It’s a small gesture from .”
Nan Qiao had saved Old Lu’s life, but gifting her money felt too shallow, and he knew Nan Qiao wouldn’t accept it.
Instead, he decided to gift her the ginseng. He knew these dicinal materials would co in handy for Nan Qiao.
“Thank you, Grandpa Lu.”
Nan Qiao stood up and left with Lu Wang.
As they walked, Nan Qiao said, “Just call Nan Qiao, no need to be so formal.”
Lu Wang smiled lightly and said, “Nan Qiao, I have other dicinal materials at ho. I’m not sure if you can use them, but I’ll take you to have a look.”
So, Nan Qiao followed Lu Wang to retrieve the dicinal materials.
The materials were stored in a separate room. Lu Wang opened the door, and Nan Qiao walked in, greeted by the distinct aroma of dicine.
Opening a box, Lu Wang presented the ginseng along with the box to Nan Qiao.
“Nan Qiao, these two ginseng roots were prepared for you by my grandfather. Additionally, I thought you might be able to use these other dicinal materials, so I’ve prepared them for you as well.”
Nan Qiao’s eyes lit up as she gazed at the box of rare dicinal materials.
As an avid practitioner of Chinese dicine, Nan Qiao couldn’t be more thrilled by this thoughtful gift.
“Lu Wang, let pay for these materials.”
“That won’t do. You saved my grandfather, and I still don’t know how to properly thank you. These materials are just a small token of appreciation. Please accept them.”
Seeing this, Nan Qiao stopped insisting.
“Thank you.” She planned to make so beneficial pills later and give them to Lu Wang for free.
Lu Wang arranged for two servants to carry the materials to Nan Qiao’s car.
“Nan Qiao, if you have ti, could you also help my mom with her health? She hasn’t been feeling well and often has trouble sleeping.”
“Tomorrow works. I’m truly swamped today,” Nan Qiao explained honestly.
“Alright, let’s exchange WeChat contacts to make communication easier.”
Nan Qiao pulled out her phone, and they added each other as friends. She got into her car and drove away.
Lu Wang stood watching Nan Qiao’s car until it disappeared from view, his smile suddenly vanishing.
Lu Wang turned and walked back ho, heading toward a storage room by the back entrance.
At the door stood a bodyguard, who quickly opened the door upon seeing Lu Wang approaching.
Lu Wang stepped inside. Inside the room were Lu Tianlei and Ren Yongshi, hiding.
When Lu Tianlei saw Lu Wang enter, his anger boiled over, erupting completely in that mont.
“Lu Wang, I’m your father! Yet you dared to have captured and even hit ?”
Bodyguard: “Eldest Young Master, he refused to cooperate and even tried to fight us.”
“Good, well done,” Lu Wang praised.
Lu Tianlei and Ren Yongshi were both dumbstruck—they hadn’t expected Lu Wang to actually comnd those who had hit him.
“Lu Wang, I’m your father!”
Lu Wang stood tall, his figure commanding and his deanor icy.
“Sorry, I don’t acknowledge that.”
Lu Wang said the cruelest words in the calst tone.
Lu Tianlei was incensed, pointing at Lu Wang but unable to utter a single word.
Ren Yongshi also hadn’t anticipated that Lu Wang would refuse to recognize Lu Tianlei as his father.
Just like that, the bond of father and son between the two was severed.
Lu Tianlei’s return to the Lu Family was now as impossible as reaching for the stars.
Ren Yongshi ntally braced herself and ultimately lowered her head, taking the initiative to speak to Lu Wang.
“Lu Wang, he’s your father—that’s an unchangeable fact. I know I’ve made mistakes, but I realize them now. Can you let him stay? I’ll leave, is that alright?”
“No.”
Ren Yongshi’s eyes brightened—was Lu Wang implying she could stay?
“Lu Wang, I always knew you were a good child.”
Lu Wang: “You can roll out together with him.”
Ren Yongshi: ??
Wasn’t this child just behaving nicely a mont ago?
Lu Wang’s cold gaze fixed on Ren Yongshi as though she were lifeless matter, frightening her into stepping back twice.
Even Lu Tianlei was shocked. For the first ti, he realized his eldest son had truly changed—beco an entirely different person.
Once, Lu Wang would dutifully trail behind him, calling him “Dad.” Now, he looked at him with an expression that resembled staring at a corpse.
“Throw them out! If they try to co back, beat them to death with sticks—it doesn’t matter.”
Lu Wang issued his cold orders, and Ren Yongshi and Lu Tianlei were dragged out.
Lu Tianlei and Ren Yongshi were unaccustod to such humiliation, and Lu Tianlei left cursing and grumbling.
“This is all your fault. Think about it—why did you co back ho with last ti? Now Lu Wang is furious, and the old man has handed all the power over to him. Our family of three is holess now—happy?”
Ren Yongshi: “…”
Ren Yongshi was furious too, silently berating Lu Tianlei for his incompetence.
“Tianlei, calm down. Maybe I should apologize to Liu Yun.”
Ren Yongshi looked at Lu Tianlei reluctantly, but to her surprise, he agreed.
“Go quickly, bow to her, say nice things. Even if she scolds or beats you, endure it. Once I return to the Lu Family, I’ll seek revenge for you.”
Ren Yongshi: “…”
Right now, she didn’t even want to talk to Lu Tianlei—just looking at him got on her nerves.
“Tianlei, what if Liu Yun expects to separate from you?”
“Then we’ll pretend to separate, deceive them first, and sort things out later.”
Ren Yongshi: “…”
She felt she might soon be abandoned by Lu Tianlei.
Even if Lu Tianlei didn’t drop her, she couldn’t bear this lifestyle anymore.
“Alright, I’ll give it a try,” Ren Yongshi said irritably as she strode forward.
Lu Tianlei trailed behind her, chattering nonstop, irritating Ren Yongshi imnsely.
…
anwhile, Nan Qiao had found out about the situation.
As she drove, wearing earphones, Hou Ze relayed the latest happenings with the Lu Family to her.
“Lu Wang is a true man—what he’s done is imnsely satisfying! Lu Tianlei and Ren Yongshi are truly despicable!”
“Lu Tianlei and Ren Yongshi used to never worry about money, so naturally, they got along well. Now that they’re broke, I’m curious to see how long Ren Yongshi will stick around.”
Money rules all—without it, taking even a single step becos difficult.
Hou Ze agreed enthusiastically, “Boss, you’re absolutely right. I too am curious to see how long Ren Yongshi will last.”
