Chapter 59 -59: The Lu Family Can’t Afford It, The Li Family Can Afford It

“You still have the nerve…”

Chen Ruyun was about to say ‘you still have the nerve to ask,’ but upon catching sight of Li Muchen’s expression next to Lu Sheng, she forcibly held back her words.

Why was Li Muchen here with Lu Sheng? Did the two of them know each other?

How did this country bumpkin have the ability to know someone like Li Muchen?

Chen Ruyun was full of doubts, but still glared with her eyes wide open, pointing at Old Mr. Fu who lay unconscious on the bed, and indignantly said: “And you dare to ask me, don’t you know what you’ve done?”

“Our old master’s health hasn’t been great over these years, but he’s never been like today,

vomiting blood and passing out right after a meal.”

“If it wasn’t for this incident, I still wouldn’t have known, you—a kid still in high school—actually dared to prescribe medicine for the old master, and he foolishly took it, being old and muddled.”

“Now look what has happened, the hospital checks can’t find anything, and the old master has been unconscious and won’t wake up. If something happens to our old master, can you bear that responsibility?!”

Chen Ruyun unloaded her fury.

At this time, the woman who had been holding the old master’s hand by the bedside all along also stood up, her gaze towards Lu Sheng was as if she wanted to devour her, filled with sharp coldness.

This woman looked to be in her forties or fifties, dressed in an elegant Chinese-style dark purple Qipao, wearing a valuable-looking jade Guanyin carving on her chest.

She carried herself with a regal and luxurious air, yet also very authoritative, and she had an appearance that screamed ‘do not provoke’.

This must be Old Mr. Fu’s daughter, Fu Yun.

“So you’re the fiancée Lu Sheng that my dad insists on engaging Chenchen with?” Fu Yun coldly stared at Lu Sheng.

“A bastard girl from the countryside, it’s surprising my dad held you in such high regard, a person of your low status, yet you repay kindness with malice, attempting to kill him.”

“I tell you, if anything happens to the old master, even if you’re just an underage kid, I absolutely won’t let you off.”

“Who did you say is low status??” This time Lu Sheng couldn’t stop him, and Lu Youye erupted instantly.

“Do all the Fu Family have such filthy mouths? The matter hasn’t been clarified, and you accuse my sister of intentionally harming Old Mr. Fu, do you think the Lu Family is dead?”

“Shut your mouth!” Upon hearing these words, Fu Yun fiercely raised her eyes as if she wanted to slash the infuriated Lu Youye with her glare.

“The matter hasn’t been clarified? The servants said that the old master’s eating and sleeping patterns in the past few days were the same as before, and ever since he took the medicine Lu Sheng prescribed, his daily condition visibly worsened.”

“And yet, the old master said, Nannan told him he might have some adverse reactions in the first few days, but after the fifth dose, his body would be completely fine.”

“Today the old master took the fifth dose, now look at him? Directly vomiting blood and passing out, and you still tell me the matter hasn’t been clarified?”

“Besides, do you, a junior from the Lu Family, have the right to speak to me like this? When was it your turn to interrupt?!”

“You…” Lu Youye was rendered speechless by Fu Yun’s retort, and Lu Siyan’s expression turned cold.

Just then, Lu Jingyan’s voice suddenly came from behind them.

“If Youye isn’t qualified to speak to you, as the head of the Lu Family, do I have the qualification?”

Lu Sheng turned around to see Lu Jingyan, dressed in a suit, walking into the bedroom with a cold face, followed by a middle-aged man wearing a black robe.

“Mrs. Fu, Aunt Yun, I asked my siblings to come over to figure out what’s really wrong with the old master, not for them to stand here and listen to your abuse.”

Lu Jingyan, tall and dignified, seemed to have rushed here in a hurry.

His gaze was stern as he looked at Fu Yun, obviously having heard what she said earlier.

“The old master is in trouble, and I understand you’re upset. But Youye isn’t wrong, the matter hasn’t been clarified, you can’t just accuse my sister of harming him.”

“And no matter where my sister is from or what her background is, she is now the pearl of the Lu Family, a sister cherished in the palms of her brothers.”

“If it does turn out my sister caused the old master’s condition, the Lu Family will take responsibility. But if not, I hope the Fu Family can also give my sister an explanation.”

“Bear this responsibility?” Fu Siya sneered, stepping forward, “If something really happens to my grandfather, can your Lu Family afford this responsibility? What does your Lu Family have to afford it?”

In these short few minutes, the atmosphere in the room had become extremely tense. A room full of reputable figures from Jiang City were actually quarreling here.

Lu Sheng’s eyes turned cold, about to speak, when suddenly Li Muchen held her hand as if to assure her not to worry.

“If the Lu Family can’t afford it, the Li Family certainly can.”

Li Muchen suddenly looked up, “If it really is Shengsheng who caused something to happen to Old Mr. Fu, I will compensate the Fu Family with one percent of the Li Group’s shares on her behalf.”

“Now, may we allow the doctor that the Lu Family elder brother has brought to see what exactly is wrong with Old Mr. Fu?”

Li Muchen’s tone was calm, but his words were earth-shattering.
