515 Kinship and Interest
“Listen to me. I’m doing this for your own good. As I’ve said before, I’ll think of a way to get you back in the future.”
Lu Hongyong tried his best to comfort Qi Yuchuan. If Lu Gan found out about the truth, he would hate him too. Moreover, Lu Hongyong no longer had the most shares in the Lu Corporation.
‘I must not fall out with Lu Gan.’
Qi Yuchuan could not help but ask, “How long do I have to wait?”
Lu Hongyong became angry.
“Why are you so stubborn? Have you already forgotten your promise? You said you’d listen to me.”
“But dad, you’re the one who said Lu Gan had given up and the Lu Corporation will belong to me in the future. He’s clearly trying to fight with me now!”
Lu Hongyong could not stand this hypocritical man anymore.
“If I didn’t say that, would Lu Gan still be alive now? Qi Yuchuan, do I look like a naive child to you? Do you think I believe you never intend to kill Lu Heng?”
Lu Hongyong looked at Qi Yuchuan with tears in his eyes.
“Lu Heng was my first son and I’m incredibly proud of him! He benefits the Lu Corporation in every way. In fact, I value him more than anyone! However, you caused Lu Heng’s death and crippled Lu Gan. What else am I supposed to do? Send you to prison? I can’t let my sons meet their demise one by one. That’s why I’m helping you! Don’t get too comfortable though. There are no second chances. If you do anything to Lu Gan, even your dead mother can’t save you!”
Qi Yuchuan was shocked.
‘So, he knows everything but still chose to help me?’
It seemed like Lu Hong truly cared about Qi Yuchuan.
Regardless, Qi Yuchuan would not stand a chance as long as Lu Gan was around.
Qi Yuchuan acted pitifully.
“Dad, you’re the only one I have left.”
Lu Hongyong sighed. He patted Qi Yuchuan’s shoulder again.
“You should leave first. You’re still young. Think about the future. I won’t abandon you, but you can’t continue to make mistakes.”
“Alright.”
Qi Yuchuan lowered his head to hide the obscure look in his eyes.
‘Pfft. His words sound nice, but he’s simply afraid that his status will be threatened. There’s no father-and-son relationship. Everything is transactional.’
Since Qi Yuchuan had agreed, Lu Hongyong left the office and went to find Lu Gan. He had a question for him.
When Lu Gan saw him, he asked, “What is it?”
“Why are you still here at this time?”
Lu Gan replied casually, “There’s no particular reason.”
Lu Hongyong did not believe him.
“Is there any reason you can’t tell me?”
Lu Gan waved his phone.
“You’re interrupting my conversation with my wife.”
Lu Hongyong was furious.
“Since you’re the general manager now, you should work hard. Stop concerning yourself with that woman. She only wants your money.”
“Oh.”
Lu Hongyong wanted to say more, but he felt it would be useless. Lu Gan would not listen. Ever since the incident, he had changed into a different person. They started quarreling more often and became distant. At this moment, they did not even know what the other was thinking.
Anyway, Lu Hongyong was a little melancholic and could not be bothered to argue anymore. He just said, “I hope you’ll be responsible. The Lu Corporation’s future depends on you. Step up.”
Lu Gan smiled in a somewhat mocking way.
“Oh.”
