Chapter 201: The Two Families Meet
Lu De and Shen Hui acted quickly. Before Shen Xi had even reached home, the two of them had already brought their men to the door of the Shen family’s dilapidated house.
When Lu De saw the dilapidated house, he was furious. Even though he knew Lu Shan would not have a good life with Shen Yan, seeing it with his own eyes struck home the reality of his daughter’s situation.
Lu Shan was his little princess, one he doted on with all his heart. How could Shen Yan make his daughter suffer like this? A fire of righteous fury roared to life. As soon as he saw Shen Hui arrive, he rushed over, shouting, "You old thing, look at what kind of son you’ve raised. He can’t even take care of his wife and child. What a disgrace!"
How could Shen Hui tolerate being scolded like this? He immediately retorted, seething with rage despite the forced smile he wore, "Ah! What a good daughter you’ve raised! She charmed my son, twisting him around her pinky. Did you know? He refused to return home because of her. Hah! What a good daughter you’ve raised!"
"Rubbish! My daughter is innocent. She was tricked away by your son. He’s a plague on society," Lu De roared.
Shen Hui’s eyes burned with anger. "Don’t you start! You’re so shameless. How dare you go back on your word to see Xixi on your own? Your Lu family is a group of despicable people who can’t even honor the basics of a gentleman’s agreement."
Lu De was beside himself in a fury and laughed, "I did no such thing. It’s your Shen family that is full of blockheads. You can’t blame others for not having a brain."
"You’re just twisting words to fit your logic. You’re shameless!"
