Chapter 827: Harm and Miscalculation
Over the phone, I recounted the entirety of today’s events, including, "I won’t hide it from Elder Lu; I fell ill a few days ago and only began to feel better yesterday. Had it not been for Elder Lu’s personal call, I wouldn’t have faced this surgery.
During the latter half of the surgery, my student Luo Qiao took over. I’m not asking for the Lu Family to be exceedingly grateful, but they shouldn’t be disrespectful after the fact either. I hope Elder Lu can provide an explanation for my student and ensure that the young miss doesn’t trouble my student in the future."
After hearing Professor Chang Huaide’s words, Elder Lu’s dissatisfaction with his prospective granddaughter-in-law, Chu Yue, only increased. Wasn’t her drama today just to find out if her grandson would become a burden on her in the future?
Originally, when the marriage was arranged, the eldest son’s wife was reluctant, but due to face-saving reasons and knowing the Chu Family thoroughly, he thought that the younger generation shouldn’t be too different in their upbringing. But he never expected that the Chu Family would produce such an anomaly as Chu Yue.
She spent all her time meddling with that girl from the Luo Family, probably hoping to emulate the Luo girl, who, unlike the Lu Family, was not yet formally engaged. At least, they had yet to finalize anything.
This woman of poor character definitely couldn’t be accepted by the Lu Family. Narrowing his eyes, he thought that this was a good opportunity to have the Chu Family initiate the breakup. Thus, he summoned someone to his side and whispered a few instructions.
After nodding, the person quickly left.
Meanwhile, the Lu Family patriarch also called the Chu Family patriarch and recounted the day’s events at the hospital, causing the Chu Family patriarch’s face to flush with embarrassment, and he repeatedly said he would properly discipline Chu Yue once she returned home.
The very next day, rumors had it that Lu Haijun, the grandson of the Lu Family, might never recover to his former condition, remaining a walking medicine jar even if he improved.
Chu Yue, who had been scolded at home the previous day, immediately objected upon hearing these rumors, throwing a fit at home and demanding to break off the engagement. When the Chu Family sent people to the hospital and learned that Lu Haijun had yet to awaken that morning, they assumed the rumors were true.
