Chapter 739: Playing the Emotion Card
Seeing that Lu Yichen was about to leave with Zhong Nianyao, Old Madam Lu still stubbornly refused to back down, and Lu Yihong became anxious. He quickly stood up to try to persuade them to stay.
"Yichen, don’t be in such a hurry to leave, let’s talk this over," he said.
If Lu Yichen left today, they did not know when they would be able to bring him back. The Lu Family’s situation was worrying, and the only one who could resolve it was Lu Yichen. As long as Lu Yichen was willing to clarify that this incident was a misunderstanding, then the crisis facing the Lu Family could be easily resolved.
"But I somehow feel that we are not very welcome here," Zhong Nianyao said with a naive and charming smile, but her words were piercing, "Actually, we didn’t really want to come over either. After all, seeing you all makes it very easy for Yichen to remember those heartbreaking events."
She did not specify what Lu Yichen’s heartbreaking events were, but everyone present knew that she was referring to the incident where Old Master Lu had caused the death of Lu Yichen’s biological parents.
Upon hearing such words, there was a faint embarrassment on everyone’s faces.
Old Madam Lu’s face darkened, and her tone carried reproach, "Did you come here today just to give us trouble, is that it?"
"You’re wrongly accusing us; we never thought about coming over," she retorted.
After speaking, Zhong Nianyao took Lu Yichen’s hand and said, "It seems that the people here really don’t welcome us! We better leave quickly so as not to bother them."
Without hesitation, Lu Yichen took Zhong Nianyao’s hand and left.
