Chapter 198: Chapter 197: Let My Lu Family End With No Successor(s)

Everyone wanted to protect Mianmian, but after all, they were far away, and who could be quicker than Mianmian herself?

The little bald bun furrowed her tiny brows, her chubby little hand grabbed Lu Chen’s hand, and the other swung directly at Lu Chen’s face.

She was shorter than Lu Chen, and this slap was intended for his face, but due to the height difference, it landed on his chin instead.

Lu Chen, still sobbing with his mouth open, recoiled from the impact on his chin and accidentally bit his tongue, blood flowing from his mouth, now crying even more heartbreakingly.

"Wuwuwuwuwu, wuwuwuwu, you hit hit hit, I bite you!"

With his injured tongue, Lu Chen spoke unintelligibly.

With the crisis averted, those rushing toward Mianmian all halted their steps, the non-human beings silently diminished their presence, and Su Chenyi, Elder Su, and Old Lady Su praised mentally: Little Auntie did a good job!

"Oops, hit the wrong spot," said Mianmian, the perpetrator of the slap, frowning at her little hand and with a tinge of regret in her eyes, "You wanted to hit Mianmian’s face, Mianmian also just wanted to hit your face."

When she had just come down the mountain initially, a chubby kid pushed her at the door; later, while filming the variety show and bearing the idea of being a generous child in front of the cameras, Wang Ze pulled her hair, prompting Mianmian to start reflecting on her actions.

Being hit hurt, and she didn’t want to be a silly, naive child standing there to take it; she was going to strictly follow her mother’s words: "Nip the danger in the bud!"

"Oh my God, what kind of child are you?" Lu Chen’s mother, seeing her son injured, could no longer hold back and burst out scolding, "Such an ill-mannered creature, a cheap thing from the wilds, you think you can hit my son?"

Old Lady Su had initially intended to discipline the child, but Little Auntie took action herself. She felt she hadn’t vented her frustration yet, and upon hearing Lu Chen’s mother insult Little Auntie, she promptly slapped Lu Chen’s mother across the face.

Lately, the old lady had been eating and sleeping well; the bracelet on her wrist was nourishing and had significantly improved her health and strength.

With that slap, a bright red handprint immediately appeared on Lu Chen’s mother’s delicate and tender face, which soon swelled up.

"What are you, daring to scold an elder of my family?" Old Lady Su sneered elegantly,"Your own son is not well-disciplined; you hit my grandson and now aim to hit our Little Auntie. Go find a trash bin to stay in, tsk, really disgusting, unlucky."

The elderly lady scolded with clear enunciation, exuding a mighty presence, and no one could tell she was an elder with graying temples.

The Lu family members were all dumbfounded. The former Old Lady Su would not have been so impolite; now she was actually calling them garbage?

They had no idea that Old Lady Su had picked up these fresh phrases from the internet. Whenever Mianmian was blackened unreasonably online, Mianmian’s fans would retaliate with such insults.

After scolding, feeling relieved, Old Lady Su gracefully returned to her seat on the couch, thinking to herself: The elder son said to be indifferently polite towards this family, to lure out the bigger fish behind them, but these people really made it impossible to stay calm and composed; she hadn’t messed things up, had she?

Tsk, as satisfying as it was to hit someone, her hand sure hurt.

"This, this, Sister Qinglu, how could you start hitting our guests? If this gets out, wouldn’t it completely disgrace the Su Family?" Lu Chen’s grandmother spoke with all seriousness, as if what Old Lady Su had done was terribly dreadful, still smiling she turned to Elder Su and said, "Linsheng, you mustn’t blame Qinglu, she must have been too agitated."

Elder Su frowned and stayed silent.

Was this old Mrs. Lu crazy? Why did she turn around and start sowing discord?

They say appearances reflect the heart; perhaps because she was accustomed to malevolence, Old Mrs. Lu’s droopy eyelids were downturned, and the wrinkles on her forehead could crush flies; trying to act gentle and playing the white lotus card under that appearance was utterly nauseating!

Elder Su almost vomited, silently massaging his wife’s hand while coldly declaring,"Our family’s status allows us to discipline some filth, and people outside will only say we have means. Also, stop smiling, old Mrs. Lu, you’re 60 years old, your wrinkles must have crushed countless flies, can’t you be a little less disgusting with that smile? Your husband is right beside you."

Madam Lu’s face turned shades of green and white from the squeezing pressure.

Back when she was young, she had actually wanted to marry Su Linsheng, but it was Su Linsheng who married Old Lady Su, Xia Qinglu. Despite Xia Qinglu lacking the backing of a powerful family, being alone in the world, Su Linsheng simply favored her.

As for herself, coming from a respectable family at the time, she still lost! Back then, people said that although Xia Qinglu was not some precious daughter of a rich family, her temperament and upbringing were unmatched by any highborn lady; that was why she could marry Su Linsheng so smoothly.

Just now, seeing Old Lady Su hit and curse someone, Madam Lu got excited in the moment, thinking she caught a small handle, and she used the tricks she was accustomed to in her youth. Little did she know, she would end up being ridiculed by Elder Su.

So angry, truly so angry!

Madam Lu’s face twisted with anger, and Lu Chen’s mother also looked quite distressed.

Only after being slapped did she remember her husband’s instructions that they came to reconcile today and they had to try to win the Su Family’s favor. Even if they were to be scolded or hit, there could be no complaints.

Now that she had scolded someone, she had no idea how Lu You would handle it when she got home, and whether it would ruin Lu You’s big plans.

Lu Chen’s mother sneaked a glance at Lu You and saw indeed that her husband’s expression was grim.

Lu You was thinking whether the Su Family knew about his cooperation with the New Divine Church, which might explain their attitude, so he felt uneasy inside.

But then he thought again, if the Su Family’s Little Auntie or Su Chenjin knew the truth, with the Su Family’s connections to the Supernatural Management Bureau, how could they possibly restrain themselves from receiving them cordially here?

Lu You was anxious inside, and after much deliberation, he decided to come clean and test the Su Family’s reaction.

So he kneeled before Old Lady Su with a thud.

"Old Madam, are you angry with me because Chenjin was almost bitten by that venomous bug? Our two families are not just long-time friends, we had close associations in the past, and have even doubled our kinship ties through marriage. How could I possibly do something so stupid as to bring someone under broad daylight to use venomous bugs to harm Chenjin? I, Lu You, am not that foolish."

"Elder and Old Madam, please believe me, I would never do such a vile thing. That bodyguard was indeed hired from an external security company, and after the incident, I fired the other bodyguards and even reported the company, all of which can be verified."

Lu You spoke with extreme sincerity.

Elder Su and Old Lady Su had already known about the matter, so their gaze turned even colder as if they really had a grievance in their hearts, "So that incident wasn’t your doing? Our Su Family is like a tree that attracts the wind, and someone had previously wanted to harm our eldest using those nefarious and evil means."

Lu You swore with his hand raised, "It truly wasn’t me, I was completely unaware. If I, Lu You, really brought someone to kill Su Chenjin, then let my Lu Family die out, and if I were to have more sons or grandsons, let them be useless and unable to carry on the lineage!"

This kind of oath is extremely harsh for families that value succession.

Madam Lu knew in her heart that her son indeed wanted to harm Su Chenjin. Hearing her son swear such a fierce oath, her eyelids twitched, and in her heart, she added: May the gods not take offense, it’s just that the Su Family has amassed wealth without compassion, pushing us too far. They’ve been blocking our business and cutting off our financial paths; it was only then that our Lu Family resorted to such measures.

"Pretend you didn’t hear this, and once we’ve replaced the Su Family, we will surely offer golden statues to all the deities, to the Jade Emperor, the Heavenly Queen Mother, the Buddha, and the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, donating incense money and accumulating merits!"

After saying this in her heart, Madam Lu glanced at Elder Su and Old Lady Su, seeing their frowning and stern expressions, and then looked over at Mianmian not far away.

She noticed Mianmian staring at her, the large, bright eyes filled with puzzlement, and her heart inexplicably skipped a beat.

This new little wretch of the Su Family, with eyes too black and bright, why do they look so piercing when gazing at someone?
