He doesn't care about any future or position of power now.
Being an idle person at home, atoning for his sins and repenting every day, hoping that one day the girl can forgive him and stop hating him, this is what he wants to do most at the moment.
The topic was ended, and neither of them spoke anymore. They followed into the living room and sat on the sofa.
Sheng Xiuyun went to make tea in person, and only the brothers Shengge, Luchen, and Anne Windsor were left in the living room.
Windsor Anne focused her bright eyes on Lu Chen and asked curiously: "I heard that Mr. Chen was the number one captain in China before. He also knew both black and white. He was a super powerful person. Why did Mr. Chen's voice sound so different to mine before?
Is it different from what you heard in the airport promotional video?”
Lu Chen lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Shengge took over the conversation naturally and explained to him: "Because I am the head of the Lu family, he made some mistakes before, and he was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall all night long, served by twenty horse whips every day, and recite the Buddhist Prajna Sutra all night long."
Lu Chen frowned slightly and raised his eyes to look at his girl's expression.
Although he didn't know why she wanted to take all the punishments he had voluntarily accepted on herself, he knew Shengge and there must be her purpose in doing so.
He remained silent, not wanting to refute.
Anne of Windsor was stunned.
She looked at Lu Chen in shock, who had his head lowered. He seemed to have acquiesced in this matter. She then looked at Shengge, whose face was cruel and cold, and it was incredible.
"It sounds so scary. What kind of big mistake did you make to deserve this kind of punishment? Isn't Mr. Chen Mr. Xiaolu's brother? Why does Mr. Xiaolu punish him so severely like an enemy?"
Shengge pursed her red lips lightly and was about to answer when Sheng Xiuyun took the brewed Biluochun tea, put it on the coffee table, and poured a cup for everyone.
Seeing the tea coming, Shengge calmly skipped the topic, picked up the tea cup, and greeted Anne of Windsor warmly.
"Miss Anne, try the green tea from my sister-in-law's house. I think it matches Miss Anne best. Miss Anne should drink more."
Anne of Windsor took the cup of tea on the coffee table, blew the tea foam lightly, and took a sip.
"Well, the tea smells so good. It's refreshing in the mouth and not greasy at all."
Shengge drank the whole cup of tea and said, "As long as you like it."
The living room was briefly quiet for two minutes, and then Anne of Windsor brought the topic back to Lu Chen.
"So when I first came in, I saw that Mr. Chen's legs and feet were not good. Did he kneel out? His voice became hoarse. Did he become like this from reading the Bible?"
Lu Chen stole a glance at Sheng Ge and didn't understand why she wanted to tell outsiders about her family affairs, but he still agreed and replied, "Yes."
Anne of Windsor looked horrified.
"Although I know this is Mr. Xiaolu's family matter, I am still curious. Is the Lu family's tutoring very strict?"
Shengge picked up the second cup of tea, blew her red lips elegantly, and replied in a calm voice: "Everyone in the Lu family is very easy-going. The so-called harshness is only for Lu Chen."
Lu Chen and Sheng Xiuyun were both stunned and looked at Sheng Ge silently.
Windsor Anne was also watching Shengge, tilting her head in confusion: "Why? Mr. Chen is so good, why does Mr. Xiaolu target him?"
"The specific reason is the privacy of my Lu family. It is not convenient to tell Miss Anne."
"Okay, I overstepped." Anne of Windsor stopped asking, lowering her head and thinking deeply about something.
Shengge looked sideways at her expression and continued with a warm smile: "Which hotel did Miss Anne stay in these days when she came to China? Are you still used to it? If you like Anning Mountain in my Lu family, you can stay here in China."
You can stay here for a few days and I will help you make arrangements."
