Chapter 164 - 158: Looking for Trouble
Chen Juxiang was particularly confident about winning Lu Yun’s heart back.
That little girl was just like her dumb eldest son, easily moved by a few words and very simple to coax. Unfortunately, Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan kept messing things up, watching everyone closely and never letting their guard down.
For two straight days, neither the children nor the adults in their family had been able to get close to the little girl alone. For this, the Su Family, especially Chen Juxiang, felt an itching hatred but were helpless to do anything about it.
"It’s infuriating, why don’t we just go there and bring her back directly? She’s the Su Family’s offspring, why shouldn’t we be able to take her?" Su Huahua suggested a strategy to her mother on the side.
"Don’t give me such bad ideas. If I could just go there and get her, why would I be worried? You’ve already married out and don’t live in the village anymore, you don’t know how hard it is to live every day walking on eggshells. Lu Chaoqun has already come over and made his intentions clear. If we really anger that scourge, can our family still live a peaceful life?"
Despite her unwillingness, Chen Juxiang didn’t dare to openly challenge Lu Chaoqun’s authority.
"Are we just going to let it be? Mom, don’t really be scared of them. Lu Chaoqun isn’t the Emperor, how can he be untouchable? If it doesn’t work, we’ll take it up with the township government. I refuse to believe he can do whatever he wants."
Su Huahua was fuming. Having lived in the township for a long time, she considered herself experienced and worldly, and didn’t take the village officials seriously at all—just a bunch of uninformed country bumpkins, that’s all.
"Sue him? What would you sue him for? Even when you sue someone, you need grounds."
On this point, Chen Juxiang was not confused at all. Despite having suffered many setbacks, Lu Chaoqun had not left any leverage for them to use. Instead, it was their own family who had provided plenty of handles to others.
