Chapter 15: Lu Zongye, Just You Wait

“Did Second Brother pick him up?” Jiang Yuning asked even though she felt that Lu Jingzhi didn’t need to do that.

“Did he mention that he was going to pick Grandpa up?” Ku Jie quickly asked. He sounded extremely nervous and worried.

“No, he did not mention anything to me. Don’t panic, I will just give him a call to ask him right now,” Jiang Yuning replied as she hung up the phone. She was just about to give Lu Jingzhi a call when she saw several missed calls from an unfamiliar number on her phone. Jiang Yuning suspected that the calls might be related to her grandfather’s affairs and so she quickly returned the phone call.

As soon as she heard the voice on the other side of the line, Jiang Yuning wanted to hang up.

“Jiang Yuning, you can try to defame me and ruin my reputation further, but I promise that you will never see your grandfather again,” Lu Zongye’s repulsive voice sounded on the other side of the line.

Jiang Yuning tried hard to control her own emotions even though she was fuming inside. “Where is my grandpa?”

“I brought him to the Lu family mansion to enjoy life. I know that you are retaliating and plotting against me because you are angry and jealous that I annulled our engagement because I wanted to get engaged with Huo Yuxi instead. If you desperately want to get married to me and be a part of the Lu family, just move into the Lu family mansion now. I promise that I will marry you immediately.”

“You’ve got to be kidding.” Jiang Yuning could not help but curse at Lu Zongye. “What made you think that I am jealous and want to get back with you?”

“You are such a cunning and manipulative woman. You really belong in the entertainment circle because only you can resort to using such tricks. Move in to the Lu family mansion as soon as possible. I don’t have anymore time to waste.” Lu Zongye hung up immediately after he had spoken.

Jiang Yuning felt ridiculed after the conversation with Lu Zongye. She felt as though Lu Zongye was treating her like a joke. However, she also knew that Lu Zongye had always been this arrogant ever since he was a child. He was always eager to win, and he was extremely confident and vicious because he had been spoiled since he was young.

When she was sixteen years old, Lu Zongye called her one day to ask her to wait for him at the maple forest next to the school. She went to the maple forest as told, and as a result of that, she was bullied and cornered by three other boys who suddenly appeared at the forest. Fortunately, she was rescued by a gardener who happened to pass by at that moment. If it weren’t for the gardener, Jiang Yuning would have been physically abused by the boys. She later found out that the three boys were Lu Zongye’s good friends.

Lu Zongye felt that he should share all the good things that he had with his friends and letting them play around with her was nothing to him.

Ever since that day, Jiang Yuning hated Lu Zongye from the bottom of her heart.

After she returned home, she told her grandfather what had happened and she requested to annul the engagement but her grandfather thought that Lu Zongye only acted that way because he was still young and immature. Lu Zongye and his mother subsequently apologized to her, and therefore, her grandfather did not allow her to annul the engagement.

As she thought about those bad memories, Jiang Yuning quickly picked up the phone and called Ku Jie. “Brother, Grandpa was picked up by Lu Zongye. He thought that I was doing everything to get his attention because I want to marry him and be a part of the Lu family.”

“Is he retarded?” Ku Jie replied coldly. “That scumbag is so despicable and hopeless. I don’t think anyone in the world can save him now. I did some digging and found out that Lu Jingzhi had suspended Lu Zongye as the chairman of Lu Enterprise. I believe that Lu Zongye intends to use our grandpa to get you back to his side, in order to pacify the Lu family elders. Ask Lu Jingzhi to send our grandpa back now.”
