Spoiled By the Young Master After Reborn In the 80s -
Chapter 363 - 362, He Family
Chapter 363: 362, He Family
"Just now, that was Madam Lu, the First Lady of Jinchen. I’ve seen her a few times at banquets, but she’s become so youthful, I hardly dare recognize her," Mrs. Wang said somewhat enviously. Which woman doesn’t want to stay young? However, time is a butcher’s knife – no matter how well you maintain yourself, you can’t withstand the ravages of time.
"She’s the First Lady of Jinchen! Then her son must be Lu Hanmo?" Wang Fei said in disbelief. She had naturally heard of the three young masters of Jinchen, especially Lu Hanmo – he is the War God of Yan Country, the object of countless young girls’ admiration. She couldn’t believe that Luo Shu could be Lu Hanmo’s girlfriend. My god! This was truly horrifying!
Mrs. Wang smiled and nodded, "It’s said that Lu Hanmo has been transferred back to Jinchen. Your roommate really has quite the charm!" Although Lu Hanmo held the title of Jinchen’s number one young master, he was very low-key and rarely attended any banquets. Hence, people who had actually seen Lu Hanmo were few.
"I didn’t expect that Luo Shu’s boyfriend would be Lu Hanmo. I must ask Luo Shu to bring Lu Hanmo out for me to see some day," Wang Fei decided. She had only heard of Lu Hanmo’s name, as for the person himself, she hadn’t seen him. However, she had long admired him.
Returning to the He Family, He Youhua grabbed Zhao Xiaoli and took her to the living room. In front of the entire He family, he slapped Zhao Xiaoli hard, "What do you think you are! Do you know that our He family almost got ruined because of you and your sister!" He had made up his mind to divorce her this time.
The He family members were stunned by this scene. He Youhua had always appeared cultured and genteel to them, and they had never seen him lash out and hit someone – not to mention that the person he hit was his own wife.
Zhao Xiaoli was sent sprawling to the floor with a slap from He Youhua. Not caring about the pain on her face, she crawled to He Youhua’s side, crying and holding onto his legs, "I really didn’t know the identity of that lady, I’m sorry! Youhua, please forgive me this once. I will never dare to do it again." With the lesson she just learned, even if she were humiliated, she would no longer dare to press her status on others.
"Youhua, what’s going on?" asked He Youhua’s mother, Li Xiangqin.
"What’s the matter? What kind of man hits a woman like that?"
"It will be laughable if the news of you beating your wife gets out. Our He family will become a joke," although they looked down on Zhao Xiaoli, she was, after all, part of the He family.
He Youhua looked at everyone and let out a sigh, "Do you know who she offended?"
"Who?" everyone asked.
"Madam Lu! The senior Madam of the Lu family. She and her sister got me to stand up for them, but only when I arrived did I find out that the person they wanted to deal with was actually Madam Lu. What’s even more ridiculous is that they even declared that they would make Madam Lu regret it. Does she deserve to be slapped?" He Youhua asked the people, pointing at Zhao Xiaoli on the floor.
"Does this woman even have a brain? Do you want to bring our He family to its demise?"
"Youhua, go get a divorce tomorrow. If you don’t divorce her now, our He family will sooner or later be dragged down by her."
"She deserves to be slapped! Even if she were beaten to death, she would deserve it!"
"I didn’t do it on purpose... I really didn’t know Madam Lu’s identity... I’ll go apologize to her... as long as she is willing to forgive me... I am willing to do anything... please don’t let Youhua divorce me... I don’t want a divorce..." Zhao Xiaoli cried and begged everyone, now filled with fear. She didn’t want a divorce; without it, she would have nothing.
"There’s no room for discussion. Youhua, go talk to Old Grandpa He right now," Li Xiangqin said authoritatively. Although the He family had a rule against casual divorce, such a calamity could not be kept or the family would eventually be dragged down by her.
He Youhua nodded, kicked Zhao Xiaoli, who was holding onto his legs, away, and walked towards the backyard where Old Grandpa He was. He believed Grandpa wouldn’t oppose it this time, right?
"Don’t... Youhua, please... I beg you, don’t..." Zhao Xiaoli cried and pleaded. However, He Youhua showed no mercy and continued to walk towards the backyard.
Old Grandpa He and Old Grandma He were chatting when they saw He Youhua come in, both a bit surprised. This grandson normally seldom visited the backyard.
"What’s the matter?" Old Grandpa He asked in a deep voice.
He Youhua bowed to Old Grandpa He and Old Grandma He, "Grandpa! Grandma! I want to divorce Zhao Xiaoli."
"Nonsense! Have you forgotten the ancestral teachings of the He family?" Old Grandpa He slammed the table in anger.
"Youhua, tell us why you want to divorce," Old Grandma He said. Although she didn’t like Zhao Xiaoli, Zhao Xiaoli had nonetheless borne two sons for the He family.
He Youhua recounted the entire incident to the elders, "I must give Madam Lu an explanation for this matter." Even if Madam Lu doesn’t pursue it, he still needed to explain himself to her. Besides, he was incredibly disgusted with Zhao Xiaoli, finding her revolting even with a single glance.
Old Grandpa He fell silent. Indeed, the situation was not trivial. The He family had only achieved today’s success through generations of effort and couldn’t afford any slip-ups.
Even the Song Family, such a colossus, was defeated by the hands of the Lu family. To the Lu family, what then could the He family possibly amount to? Although it was rumored that the Song family’s downfall was due to an earthquake, anyone with a brain could see that this was not the true reason.
He Youhua remained silent, looking at Old Grandpa He, waiting for his decision.
Old Grandpa He let out a long sigh, "Since your mind is made up, go ahead and do what you think is right." Rules can be rigid, but humans are flexible; he naturally wouldn’t let the He family fall into crisis because of a mere rule.
Lu Hanmo returned to the military camp, handing over the captured mutant werewolves and the research materials to the hospital for further study. Just because MD Country had failed this time didn’t mean they would give up. Understanding the formation process of the mutant werewolves and the composition of the medicinal liquids could prevent future troubles.
"Instructor Lu! Wait a moment!" Liu Yufei chased after Lu Hanmo.
"What is it?" Lu Hanmo asked, looking at Liu Yufei.
"Could you please invite Luo Shu to come over and join us in the research?" Liu Yufei asked. He felt that with Luo Shu joining the research, the results would definitely come faster.
"Let me think about it," Lu Hanmo said, then continued on his way. He would have to ask Shushu what she thought; if she was willing, he naturally wouldn’t have an issue. Plus, if she came to the military camp, he could see her.
Watching Lu Hanmo’s retreating figure, Liu Yufei withdrew his gaze and turned towards the hospital. He had to inform his teacher about this matter; perhaps the teacher could figure out a way to get Luo Shu to come.
