CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce
Chapter 277. President Lu strikes again

Chapter 277: 277. President Lu strikes again

Qiao Xu spoke in an unhurried tone, appearing calm and composed, infuriating Su’s mother and daughter to no end.

"Qiao Xu, anyway, you must apologize to Aunt Su today. After all, she is your stepmother and your elder!!!"

Qiao Sheng clenched his teeth and glared at Qiao Xu, putting on a parental pose.

"Stepmother?"

Lu Moqing, who had not said anything so far, suddenly spoke up. His low, chilly voice caused a slight uneasiness in the hearts of Qiao Sheng and the other two.

Lu Moqing’s gaze slowly moved to Su Suqin, who was standing by Qiao Sheng’s side, and a look of rarely-seen surprise flashed in his eyes. "Miss Su has been promoted?"

He slightly curled his lips, displaying an unexpectedly sincere expression, "Not easy waiting for twenty-six years. Congratulations."

When everyone heard Lu Moqing say this, they froze for a moment, and their expressions began to change unpredictably.

Lu Moqing usually doesn’t like getting involved in other people’s affairs, but his "congratulations" sounded strongly sarcastic.

Promoted?

Waited for twenty-six years?

What does this imply?

Just now, when Qiao Sheng accused Qiao Xu, those who didn’t know the details might have thought that Qiao Sheng only met Su Suqin after his divorce. But with Lu Moqing’s words, many people understood the truth.

They divorced only half a year ago, but this woman has been waiting for twenty-six years. What does this mean? This woman has been the mistress for twenty-six years, and maybe she was the one who instigated the divorce.

If that’s the case, it serves her right to be humiliated and even beaten by someone’s daughter!!

The mother and daughter’s faces changed and changed again. If it were someone else who said this, Su Suqin might have torn their mouths apart. But the person sitting in front of them was not just anyone—it was Lu Moqing, the head of the Lu Group, someone nobody dared to provoke easily.

Facing the strange gazes from all around, Su Rou was so angry that she felt blood would spurt out. However, she could only put on an innocent and at-peace appearance. With teary eyes and tightly clenched lips, she looked at Lu Moqing and choked, "Mo... Mo Qing, how... how can you say this?"

"Hm?"

Lu Moqing still wore a puzzled expression, seemingly not understanding the meaning behind Su Rou’s words. After a pause, he revealed an enlightened look, nodding and saying, "Right, after all, it’s not an honorable thing, so it’s not worth congratulating. I’m sorry, I take back my congratulations."

Qiao Sheng and the other two: "..."

A better apology would be not to apologize at all.

Is he genuinely apologizing or purposely making it difficult for them to save face?

The expression of the three people alternated with all sorts of colors, and it looked quite amusing.

The surrounding whispers started again, but this time, they changed from accusing Qiao Xu to cursing Su’s mother and daughter.

"Tsk! I thought the daughter was being unreasonable, but it turns out it’s a mistress ascending to power, so she deserves to be beaten. In my opinion, not only should her fingers be broken, but her head should also be broken."

"Didn’t you hear what the daughter just said? She didn’t even break the mistress’s finger. That shameless woman clearly framed her."

"How vicious, destroying someone’s family and then framing their daughter. Are all mistresses this shameless?"

"Nonsense! A woman with a sense of shame wouldn’t be a mistress in the first place."

"I just realized, isn’t the man the chairman of Qiao Corporation?"

"Now that you’ve mentioned it, I remember. My God, isn’t that President Lu of the Lu’s?!"
