Ji Yuting didn't know what she was doing when she returned to Lujia yesterday. As he lit the engine and drove towards Anning Mountain, he asked, "Why do you suddenly want to go back to Anning Mountain?"
After all, Lu Hua now lives in a villa outside, Lu Mo has gone to Fangcheng, and apart from the brothers and sisters from the side branch of the Lu family in Anning Mountain, only Lu Chen and Sheng Xiuyun are there.
Shengge turned to look at the scenery outside the car window and explained calmly: "Yesterday, I took Anne of Windsor to live in Anning Mountain, and I also resumed Lu Chen's habit of reciting scriptures every time. Counting this time, he should not have read it yet.
Well, I can’t sleep anyway, so I just wanted to take a look.”
After being together for so long, Ji Yuting instantly understood her intention with a simple explanation.
"It's okay to take a look. There are some things that need to be clarified before you can feel completely at ease."
Shengge stopped talking and focused his eyes on the various street lights outside the car window, lost in thought.
Ji Yuting glanced at her and expressed his worries.
"Shengsheng, if that Anne of Windsor is not Lu Yage, what are you going to do?"
Shengge said coldly: "Although there is no conclusive evidence, she and that Hall Paul are probably the masterminds who caused the bad attack on us on the way to the airport in country A. Since it's not Lu Yage, then that's all.
Let’s face it, once she comes to China, she can’t leave my territory easily.”
Ji Yuting: "Anne of Windsor is easy to solve. If Hall Paul also comes, after all, he has the title of Noble Count of Ona, and the AN Group is also deeply rooted. If Shengsheng wants to fight him, she must take her time."
Shengge naturally knows.
"Let me answer my doubts about Anne of Windsor first. If she is really not Lu Yage, the previous matters will be businesslike. If she is, she must be handled according to the rules of my Lu family."
The more she talked about it, the darker her voice became, staring at the villa with the lights on at the top of Anning Mountain.
"After entering Anning Mountain, she will never be able to rely on a big tree like Hall Paul to make a comeback in her life."
Shengge came quietly.
Not wanting to alarm the entire Lu family, she chose to let Ji Yuting park the luxury car halfway up the mountain.
The two of them walked up.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Shengge and Ji Yuting arrived at Lu Shaoyuan's old villa and walked around the back door to the ancestral hall.
The closer you get, the clearer someone's reciting sound becomes.
Because his voice was hoarse, Lu Chen's reading was not very pleasant, it was scratchy and a bit difficult, but he read very slowly and seemed to be calm inside.
Shengge quietly looked through the crack in the window and looked at the situation in the ancestral hall.
Lu Chen knocked his knees on the cold marble floor tiles without a futon. There was a pile of scriptures in front of him. He held one in his hands and was reading it in a formal manner.
His back was straight, his body was slightly swaying, and his throat was obviously dry.
I have been kneeling in the ancestral hall to read from mid-afternoon, and I have been reading until now. I don’t know if I took a sip of water in the middle. This kind of punishment is very grueling.
But Lu Chen seemed to be digesting it well, and it seemed that his previous self-abuse had made him accustomed to such an experience.
Shengge looked at that figure from a distance and couldn't tell what it felt like, it was weird.
She was angry with Lu Chen. She thought that her elder brother, who had loved her for more than twenty years, had always played the role of a strict mother, but he had hidden it from her for so many years because of an illegitimate daughter who had hurt her.
He even allowed Lu Yage to act recklessly, even turning a blind eye to the truth that his father was pushed downstairs in order to obtain the inheritance rights of the Lu family.
Thinking of this, the complex look in Shengge's eyes gradually became firm and cold.
Ji Yuting saw her expression in his eyes and sighed silently.
He knew that Shengge loved Lu Chen as her brother, but in her eyes, Lu Chen's previous behavior had really hurt her affection and respect for her eldest brother.
She just couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.
Ji Yuting didn't want to see her always troubled by this incident. Although Lu Chen's confession and apology over the past six months were a bit extreme, he could see that Lu Chen truly regretted it.
"Shengsheng..."
Just as he was about to offer some words of advice, Shengge suddenly covered his mouth and pulled him back with a light step.
"Shh, someone seems to be coming, don't make any sound." She whispered in Ji Yuting's ear.
The two of them retreated to the shadows behind the ancestral hall.
Shengge leaned against Ji Yuting's ear and whispered again: "Please help me look at the situation inside, and I'll go find Uncle Lin."
Ji Yuting would not mess up her plan, so he nodded obediently.
