Surprise! Love-brained Mr. Li has made his ex-girlfriend his girlfriend

Chapter 301: Going through fire and water

Lu Xingchen had never expected that she would encounter such a big drama when she came here today, so she waited for the old lady to introduce the children and asked her: "So, what are you doing here?"

She originally wanted to take out the letter of commitment to give up her property in front of everyone, but she just looked at the old lady for a moment, and then looked at the five-year-old boy next to her. He seemed calm, but his childish eyes could not hide his fear and uneasiness about the scene. Suddenly, she changed her mind.

"Today is your birthday, I came back to celebrate."

Li Zhen's eyes moved slightly when he heard her say that, and then he presented the gift in his hand, "I am Li Zhen, Xingchen and I wish you a happy birthday, and may you be blessed with as much happiness as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."

Mrs. Lu looked at the handsome, calm and steady Li Zhen for a moment and said, "Thank you."

Then she signaled Chen Ma with her eyes, and Chen Ma stepped forward to accept Li Zhen's gift. The old lady then looked at Lu Xingchen and said, "A guest is a guest. Since you are here, please sit down and eat together. Chen Ma, arrange for them to be seated."

What a good saying goes, "A guest is a guest." Lu Xingchen originally had no plan to stay for dinner, but now that the show has become so big and they have come uninvited and added to the cast, it would be inappropriate for him to just sit down and leave.

There was no seat left in the chair where the old lady was sitting, and even if there was, the old lady had no intention of letting Lu Xingchen sit down. Aunt Chen saw what she meant and was about to lead Lu Xingchen and Li Zhen to the second seat.

Lu Dingsheng, who looked tense, said at this moment: "Xingchen and Li Zhen sit next to me."

When Aunt Chen heard this, she looked at the old lady.

The old lady had Ethan Lu by her side today, so she didn’t care about these things and said, “Then add two more chairs to this table.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the other members of the Lu family changed their expressions again, and then looked at Lu Xingchen and Li Zhen who had taken their seats with different expressions.

Especially Lu Dingjian's family, who sat at the same table, looked even more unhappy.

People used to say that Lu Dingsheng had few children, but now he not only has a biological daughter but also a son. Lu Xingchen and Li Zhen sat next to him. Even though they are not biological children, they feel that he has gained even more power.

Lu Dingjian couldn't help but sneer and said, "Xingchen, you came here so openly today, but you didn't expect that you would have such a cute little brother at home, right?"

Lu Xingchen just responded: "Yes."

Seeing her indifference, Lu Dingjian continued to ask in a sarcastic tone, "Are you happy or not?"

Lu Xingchen smiled slightly: "Although I am a little surprised, I am still very happy. Where is my uncle?"

Lu Dingjian didn't even bother to pretend to be happy. He knew that the old lady always favored Lu Dingsheng, but ever since Lu Xingchen left the Lu family, in order to win the favor of the eldest house, he did whatever she wanted.

But I didn't expect that the old lady would still have such a trick up her sleeve. They were all her biological children, and she was too biased.

Lu Dingjian looked at Lu Xingchen and said, "No matter how happy I am, I will never be as happy as Xinyue's mother."

Yang Wenqi, who was suddenly called, lowered her eyes and tried her best to wipe away the coldness and sharpness in her eyes. After a moment, she raised her head and looked at Lu Dingjian with a slight smile.

"I haven't been able to give Brother Sheng another child in all these years. Mom is also very far-sighted. In order to ensure that the Lu family can have a suitable successor, she brought back such a son for Brother Sheng. Since he is Brother Sheng's child and the heir of our Lu family, I should be happy."

She kept calling the child "heir", which made the child a thorn in the eyes of those who wanted to seize power.

Lu Dingsheng said at the right time: "Regarding the successor of the Lu family, I still say the same old thing, the one who is capable will take the position. So, as long as you are a child of our Lu family, just give full play to your potential. Whoever is capable will be the manager in the future."

Lu Dingsheng has said this more than once, but some people think that he has been using a delaying tactic because his children are still young.

Lu Dingyuan at the next table smiled disapprovingly and asked him, “What do you think of this kid Lu Ethan, Ah Sheng?”

Lu Dingsheng: "When he grows up, we can all make the assessment together."

Lu Dingyuan: "So, you are actually very happy about the arrival of this son, right?"

Lu Dingsheng's cheeks tightened again and again. He didn't expect the old lady to do such a thing. In shock, he immediately thought of his youngest daughter Lu Xinyue, and also the situation of Yang Wenqi, who is now his wife.

But even though he thought the old lady's behavior was absurd and unbelievable, as someone who had longed for a child for decades, he was still moved by the child.

Back then, when he learned that Lu Xingchen was not his child, the pain almost broke him down. So, after Xu Fanghua decided to marry Lu Wenli, he resolutely married Yang Wenqi, who was pregnant with his child.

This is not only a revenge for Xu Fanghua's deception and betrayal, but also a compensation for the fact that he has no biological children. It doesn't matter who he marries in the future, so why doesn't he marry someone who already has his children?

After marrying Yang Wenqi, he experienced the pain of losing her unborn baby again, and once again experienced years of unsuccessful attempts to have a child. Of course, he did not blame Yang Wenqi, and could tolerate such a lack and regret in the marriage. Even if he did not have a child, he would still love his daughter Xinyue and treat Yang Wenqi well.

But he couldn’t deny that because of Ethan Lu’s arrival, he couldn’t help but slowly, become aware of the joy in his heart.

Lu Dingsheng did not evade the question and answered Lu Dingyuan: "He came into this world as my child, so I should be responsible for him."

After hearing this, Yang Wenqi smiled, lowered her eyes and remained silent, but clenched her hands into fists again under the table.

Lu Dingyuan asked even louder at this moment: "What about Lu Xingchen? Is she still your child now?"

Lu Dingsheng looked at Lu Dingyuan and said, "Of course."

Lu Dingyuan: “So are you going to hand over the Lu family to her, or to Ethan Lu?”

Just as Lu Dingsheng was about to answer, Li Zhen spoke up for him, "I'm sorry, I've already asked Xingchen, and she promised me that if she has time after managing her own company, she will help me manage Zhencheng. If Lu's is still so short of people by then, you can ask Xingchen if she can spare some time to manage Lu's affairs."

Lu Dingyuan was arrogant and proud. When he heard the younger generation talking back, he immediately pointed at him and said, "Who do you think you are? How dare you butt in on our Lu family's affairs?"

"He's my boyfriend, the only one who protects this situation. Uncle, do you have any opinion?" Lu Xingchen looked at Lu Dingyuan neither servile nor arrogant. "My dad just said that the right to inherit the Lu family belongs to the capable. As the elder of the family, you don't urge the younger generation to be diligent, but instead point to me and a five-year-old child to sow discord among family members. Do you still count as a person?"

"Lu Xingchen!" Lu Dingyuan slammed the table and stood up. "How dare you, a person who has no blood relationship with our Lu family, stand up and speak!"

Lu Xingchen stood up coldly, facing his anger and said, "Then why did you deliberately take me, a person without blood relationship, with you in the inheritance rights?"

"You..." The arrogant Lu Dingyuan was so angry that his blood pressure was rising, "That's because..."

"Because I'm still on the Lu family's household register, I'm still Lu Dingsheng's daughter." Lu Xingchen's face was solemn. She took out the letter of commitment to give up inheritance from her bag, which she had not planned to take out, and showed it to everyone. "Originally, I came here today to announce that I'm giving up this right to the Lu family, but now..."

She tore the letter of commitment in her hand in half, and then tore it again.

Something that might help the Lu family divert some of their attention away from her was torn into four pieces and placed on the table.

She stood tall and fearless, and spoke frankly, "My father needs me at any time, and the Lu family doesn't have anyone who can take up the responsibility on his shoulders. I will definitely go through fire and water without hesitation."
