Chapter 355: Chapter 353 Trouble at the Lu Family 6_1

Although ten million is a lot, the Xia family could afford to pay it back as long as they are willing to help sincerely.

Once the Xia family helped pay off the debt, the Lu family wouldn’t need to sell their house anymore.

She could then continue to poison Lu Tingli to death and let Lu Dahai and his wife adopt Lu Dahu to take over the property.

"What about the money owed to the Xia family? Who cares, just don’t sign a debt acknowledgment," she mused.

You have to admit, it was a well-played move.

Mrs. Lu, however, shook her head with difficulty, "It won’t work, Bao’er broke up with Tingli a few days ago, saying she was afraid of being dragged down by our family."

"Really?"

"Of course, it’s true!" Speak of the devil, and he shall appear, Xia Ningxing walked over with her chin up, glancing at Old Madam Lu, "So, don’t even think about getting any ideas from me; I don’t have the habit of helping my ex-boyfriend’s family to pay off their debts!"

While she was speaking, Xia Ningxing also casually winked at Lu Tingli.

Lu Tingli’s lips curved imperceptibly, then he put on a pained expression, gripping her hand, "Baby Xing..."

"Stop being so intimate; I’ve got nothing to do with you, you pauper," Xia Ningxing frowned, chin up, her eyes filled with disdain and annoyance.

She personified the words "bitchy" and "gold-digger" to perfection, making others want to slap her.

After she finished speaking, she broke free from his hand, but no one noticed the girl’s little finger scratching the palm of his hand, seemingly teasing him.

Lu Tingli’s palm tingled.

After ranting, Xia Ningxing bolted from the Lu residence.

If she didn’t leave then, she would give the game away. She could maintain her act in front of others, but it pained her heart to do so in front of Lu Tingli.

But she had to keep acting; otherwise, Old Madam Lu would cling to the Xia family, thinking she would surely help pay the debt, and Xia Ningxing would have to continue living in the Lu family like a parasite.

Lu Tingli visibly withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Old Mrs. Lu didn’t expect Xia Ningxing to be so heartless, suddenly feeling both angry and afraid.

Angry that no one would help the Lu family pay their debts, and the house would have to be sold in the end, depriving her grandson of his inheritance.

And frightened that the horde of creditors would come back to haunt their house again.

The more Old Mrs. Lu thought about it, the angrier she got, and she cursed out loud, "That greedy little bitch, truly a social climber, clinging like a dog when our family had money, look how arrogant she is now!"

"Mom, don’t blame Bao’er for being pragmatic; who’s fault is it that our family not only went bankrupt but also owes so much money?" Mrs. Lu sobbed softly and then pretended to console Lu Tingli by patting his back, "Son, you can’t blame Bao’er, she’s broken up with you and cut ties for the sake of her family. Otherwise, what if those creditors go and make trouble at her house later?"

"Now you have nothing to do with each other, so they have no reason to cause trouble at the Xia family anymore," Mrs. Lu said, seemingly comforting him but actually subtly reminding Old Mrs. Lu.

Indeed, Old Mrs. Lu’s eyes widened, enlightenment dawning upon her!

Right!

If they have nothing to do with each other, then those debt collectors couldn’t come to plague her house.

Realizing this, a gleam of insight flashed in Old Mrs. Lu’s eyes.

Then the old lady slammed the table, stood up, and exclaimed, "Dahai’s wife, I also want to cut off all relations with you Lu folks!"

"Mother, what do you mean by this?" Mrs. Lu raised her tearful eyes in shock, seemingly unable to believe that those words had come from her own mouth, and now looked at her in disbelief, "Mother, our family is in a difficult time, how can you not care about us?"

Old Mrs. Lu looked at her with disdain, "Why should I care about you? Lu Dahai is not my biological child; he is just a burden I picked up. Why should I uncover my own life for such a burden now!"

She had come here with the intention of seizing Lu Dahai’s wealth, but now that the Lu family was bankrupt and in dire debt, they were worthless to her.

Being worthless was one thing, but now things were getting messy, and if she didn’t ditch them quickly was she waiting to celebrate the New Year with them or what?

Look at Xia Ningxing, how clever she is!

She, too, needed to be smart and make decisive cuts when necessary!

Mrs. Lu grasped the hem of her clothes, squeezing out tears, crying, and shaking her head, "Mother, you can’t do this, you are too heartless!"

"Don’t call me mother; I am not your mother, nor the mother of Lu Dahai’s wild seed..." Old Mrs. Lu pushed her away, and then shouted upstairs to Lu Dahu, who was playing computer games, "Dahu, Dahu, hurry up and pack your things to leave with grandma. From now on, we will sever ties with your uncle’s family!"

"Got it."

Lu Dahu had been enjoying his game and impatiently responded with annoyance.

At that moment, Lu Tingli stood up from the sofa, his expression cold as he looked at Old Mrs. Lu, "Since grandma truly wants to sever ties, let’s go to the notary office to make it official, otherwise it doesn’t count."

That was exactly what he had been waiting for!

Now this drama could finally end.

"Right, notarize it, it needs to be notarized!" Old Mrs. Lu couldn’t wait to disassociate from him, eagerly echoing in agreement.

After coming out of the notary office and completely severing ties with the bankrupt Lu family, Old Mrs. Lu felt as if she was walking on air.

Finally, she no longer had to worry about debt collectors from the Lu family knocking on her door to make a scene.

She also didn’t have to worry about being pointed at and talked about because of the crimes committed by Mr. Lu.

"I hope you can always be this happy." After coming out of the notary office, Lu Tingli stared at Old Mrs. Lu, oh no, she should now be referred to as Old Madam Lu.

Old Madam Lu met his gaze and for some reason felt that something was slightly off.

However, she quickly dismissed that thought; what could be wrong? Could the Lu family possibly come back from the dead?

Old Madam Lu couldn’t help but snort.

When she got home and was about to pack up and leave, she saw that Mr. Lu was already back, with two government officials standing in the room.

"Dahai! How did you come back!" Seeing this, Old Madam Lu couldn’t help but exclaim in disbelief, rubbing her eyes as if she thought she was seeing things.

But very quickly, Old Madam Lu understood, "You’ve been sentenced to death, haven’t you? Now you’ve come home to see your family for the last time, right?"

At Star Shine, those who were sentenced to death were allowed one last meal with their family before execution, so Old Madam Lu assumed the same for him.

Mr. Lu opened his mouth, just about to say something, when he was interrupted.

Old Madam Lu looked at him with disgust and disdain, "It’s a good thing I’ve already severed my relation with you, otherwise having a son who is a death row inmate would bring me so much shame."

Her tone was sharp and mean, as if Mr. Lu was less than the worms in the sewage, the rotting fruit in the trash can.
