Chapter 53 The little man behind the scenes

Lu Chengwen didn't expect that a girl could reach such a level.

"Give me the bracelet!"

Tears came pouring out like a tap, unstoppable;

Calling out "Dad" made Lu Guanghong's heart blossom with joy, his excitement making him fumble;

Upon hearing about the engagement, she immediately knelt and kowtowed without hesitation.

At this point, Lu Chengwen even felt like he was Chen Shimei.

Could it be that I slept with her and forgot about it!?

Being comforted by Lu's mother, to console the injured little girl, Lu's mother took off her ancestral bracelet.

"Xuejiao, no matter what, I didn't take care of Chengwen properly, as a mother, I have a responsibility."

"Mom, please don't say that."

Lu's mother immediately became ecstatic: "Ah! Good child! Don't worry, from now on, I'll treat you like my own daughter. Your uncle and I wanted a girl back then, but ended up with two little devils."

"Mom and Dad are blessed people, and Lu's brother is very ambitious."

"Humph! What's the use of being ambitious? He's so mean to you, it makes me angry just to hear about it! Here, take this bracelet. It was given to me by my mother-in-law. Now I'm giving it to you..."

"No, Mom, I can't accept it, it's too precious."

"Take it! It's from Mom." Lu's mother's happiness almost overflowed from her eyes.

Lu Chengwen became anxious: "Mom, just give her some money, this bracelet was originally given to you by grandma."

"I'm willing!" Lu's mother glared at Lu Chengwen, then turned to Xu Xuejiao and said, "Take it, this is my heartfelt gesture. The Lu family is not irresponsible, we will give you a status."

"Thank you, Mom!"

After being affectionate for a long time, Lu Chengwen had already despaired.

No! I can't despair! I have to fight her to the end!

I refuse to believe that I'll be defeated by a little girl.

The two walked into the courtyard, and Lu Chengwen glanced around, seeing nobody.

Lu Chengwen looked at Xu Xuejiao playing with the bracelet joyfully, his face stern as he reached out his hand, "Give it to me."

"What!?!"

"The bracelet! What are you pretending for? Is it something you should keep? How dare you?"

"This was given to me by Mom, you have no right to ask for it."

"Don't call her 'Mom'! Did you even call her 'Mom'? Give me the bracelet!"

Lu Chengwen glared, "Are you going to give it or not?"

"Are you bullying me again?"

"Don't play this trick with me!" Lu Chengwen said, "I see through you, your heart is really wicked! How can you keep calling 'Dad' and 'Mom' incessantly? Don't you replace it nauseating?"

"I don't think so, Dad and Mom are very good to me!"

"You're lying! I warn you, next time you see them, tell them the truth, or I won't spare you! Give me the bracelet!"

"Are you going to be cruel to me again!?"

"I'm telling you, Xu Xuejiao, my patience is limited, don't push me! If you push me too far, I'll slap you to death!"

Lu Chengwen made a fierce gesture as if he was going to hit someone.

Xu Xuejiao wasn't afraid of him at all. By now, she had figured Lu Chengwen out.

No matter how bad or fierce he acted, it was all a façade, just intimidation. He couldn't bring himself to hit her.

But suddenly, she saw Lu's father and mother walking behind Lu Chengwen.

Hastily she said, "Stop bullying me all the time, I'm going to tell Dad and Mom!"

"Hey! Still calling them 'Dad and Mom'? That's your dad? That's my dad! Are you going to give it to me? Do you want me to hit you?"

Lu's mother heard it: "Old Lu, is Chengwen bullying Xuejiao again?"

Lu's father gritted his teeth: "This brat!"

Xu Xuejiao saw them approaching, and suddenly clapped her hands, making a loud noise.

Then she covered her face in grievance as if she had been slapped.

Lu Chengwen was taken aback, and Xu Xuejiao handed the bracelet over pitifully, "Brother Chengwen, please don't hit me. I'll return the bracelet to you. I dare not accept it, but it's from the elders, I don't want to be disrespectful..."

Lu Chengwen squinted, snatched the bracelet, and smirked triumphantly, "You're wise. Let me tell you, from now on..."

Lu's father grabbed Lu Chengwen's hair from behind and started to beat him.

Xu Xuejiao nestled in Lu's mother's arms, crying again.

...

Sitting in the car.

Lu Chengwen's hair was messy from being pulled, and his face bore a fiery red handprint, pouting with a look of grievance as he started the car.

Xu Xuejiao sat in the back seat, whistling, playing with her new bracelet, "Brother Chengwen, I found that this bracelet looks good on me! Look, doesn't it match my skin tone?"

Lu Chengwen glanced at her through the rearview mirror, "Get lost!"

...

Long Aotian sat on a cushion, practicing healing techniques.

After a long time, he let out a sigh and slowly opened his eyes.

Hua Xue Ning asked nervously, "Young Master, how do you feel?"

Long Aotian's eyes were fierce, "What do you think?"

Hua Xue Ning shook her head, "Subordinate doesn't know, that's why I'm asking you."

Long Aotian sighed, "Damn Iron Lump King when I regain my original strength, I'll break every bone in his body and turn him into scum!"

Hua Xue Ning said, "Young Master, Lu Chengwen must be dealt with."

"Right."

Long Aotian said, "This bastard dared to impersonate me, causing me to be beaten like this!"

"Young Master, to be fair, it was Iron Lump King who beat you, not Lu Chengwen. It was because you switched faces with him that you were beaten."

Long Aotian looked at Hua Xue Ning, "Are you blaming me for that?"

"That's exactly what I'm thinking!"

Long Aotian was about to sit up straight to argue but immediately winced in pain.

"Young Master, please don't move randomly. I'll go kill Iron Lump King to vent your anger!"

"No," Long Aotian said, "The main target is Lu Chengwen. This guy managed to make Leng Qingqiu and Xu Xuejiao care about him so much, he's truly a nuisance!"

"In that case, Young Master's intention..."

"Killing him is easy, but I must have Leng Qingqiu and Xu Xuejiao. Where is Shi Yin?"

"She should arrive today."

"Good! Shi Yin and that woman, both of them will make a move. I want Lu Chengwen to lose his reputation in front of Leng Qingqiu and Xu Xuejiao, then I'll appear as a hero, capturing their hearts."

Long Aotian's face was covered in sweat, grinning maliciously, "Xue Ning, remember, attacking the heart is more important than attacking the city. Winning hearts is more important than winning lives. Once I handle these two women, killing Lu Chengwen will be like killing a dog!"

Hua Xue Ning said solemnly, "Young Master, you've already complicated things a lot. If you continue like this, I'm afraid you'll be killed next time."

"Who dares to kill me... Ouch, it hurts, it hurts..."

......

Iron Lump King received a call from his strategist, wearing a smile.

"Strategist, I've settled everything. The money has been transferred to the young master's company, and that person who opposed the young master, I gave him a good beating, turned him into a grandson."

There was silence from the strategist for a long time on the other end. "You come back immediately, right now, without any delay."

"What's wrong? I can stay here to secretly protect the young master."

"No need. I don't want to waste time talking to you. Anyway, come back immediately, right now."

"Is something wrong?"

The strategist took a deep breath. "The person you beat, the one whose body you broke over seventy bones, is the young master."

Iron Lump King's mind instantly crashed.

"That... No, that's wrong, he's Lu Chengwen, the young master is Long Autian!"

"The young master and Lu Chengwen swapped faces, and you... don't say anything more, just come back quickly. One day later, I'll kill you myself."

Iron Lump King hung up the phone and sat directly on the ground.

"How... is this possible? Did I make a mistake again?!"

"Iron King, we better hurry back. This is a big mess now."

Iron Lump King looked at him. "Can I still go back? I beat the young master into a pulp. If I go back, won't the strategist skin me alive and pull out my tendons?"

Iron Lump King, the iron-faced tough guy, shed tears of humiliation.

"I... I beat him to a pulp!"

"Yes, you even jumped up to kick him."

"I... I was gnashing my teeth, cursing while hitting him!"

"You even grabbed a weapon, smashing four stools."

"I broke his bones, right?"

"He was knocked unconscious by you. Even if he had iron bones, it would take him a hundred days to heal."

"What do we do now?! If this gets back to the faction, I'll be a super-duper idiot!"

"We don't have to pay attention to those rumors."

"To hell with it!"

Iron Lump King suddenly stood up, gritting his teeth. "Lu Chengwen! I must... No, Long Autian! Damn it, who should I curse? This thing has messed up my mind!"

......

Tang Yiyi wore a duckbill cap, loose denim jacket on top, and denim shorts on the bottom, revealing two long, snow-white legs, stepping on white sneakers, skateboarding far away, smoothly braking and turning, fixing her posture.

Seeing Lu Chengwen returning to his villa, talking with Zhao Gang, she smiled triumphantly, grabbed her camera, and snapped a few pictures.

Putting on sunglasses, she continued lurking deeper into the villa area.

Finding a spot, she opened her recorder and inserted it into her bun, then tested the pinhole camera on her chest.

Then she buttoned up her denim jacket, looked around, and sneaked into Lu Chengwen's villa yard.

After lurking for a while, her phone suddenly vibrated. She quickly leaned against the wall and answered in a low voice, "Hello?"

"Yiyi, have you obtained the evidence?"

"I'm working on it."

"Good! This scumbag Lu Chengwen must have a big connection with that batch of drugs. He must have felt the heat and had to come out to show off. We must expose him, make him a target of public criticism, a disgrace for generations."

"I know!" Tang Yiyi impatiently replied, "I have work to do."

"Oh, and by the way, investigate why he took the lead in investing in the shantytown project. There must be a conspiracy here. If we can replace evidence of him swindling the people's hard-earned money, embezzling government project funds, or any other scandals, we can completely bring down this merchant and restore a clear sky to Xue City!"

"Yes, anything else?"

"Yes, recently someone photographed him getting close to Xu Xuejiao, the eldest daughter of the Xu family. He's engaged to Leng Qingqiu. If he's messing around with Xu Xuejiao again, it will undoubtedly be another important handle for us to attack him!"

"Wait for my news."

Tang Yiyi suddenly saw Xu Xuejiao walking into the villa yard, looking very happy.

"Something's up, I'm getting to work."

Tang Yiyi lowered her cap brim, and muttered angrily, "Lu Chengwen! I, Tang Yiyi, this just, brave, smart, beautiful female journalist, am your nemesis!"

"Although I haven't left any evidence, I will expose your ugly, twisted, sinful, dark side completely!"

"I swear by Tang Yiyi!"

Lu Chengwen sneezed in the living room, "Damn it, who's cursing me behind my back!?"
