Chapter 678: Breaking the Promise

The reason why he dared to marry Zhou Chengcheng without notifying the family was mainly because he knew that the old man had always been in charge of the affairs of the family, and his father had been partial to him all these years, so he wanted to tell his father that he married Zhou Chengcheng, and his father would scold him a few words at most, and he would not do anything to him.

The old man did not live in the gorgeous villa of the Lu family, but in a courtyard with carved beams and paintings at the back of the villa.

The small building leading to the courtyard has a long cloister surrounded by flowers and greenery, which has been carefully tended, and the cloister is surrounded by vines, and at this time, pink flowers bloom in the middle of the vines, exuding a quiet fragrance.

The entrance to the house is connected to the living room, where the sound of a television is ringing, and the babbling Yue opera is playing inside.

Lu Ziliang stepped on the singing voice of Yue Opera and walked into the hall, which is a large space, the furnishings inside are simple and atmospheric, pear blossom wood modular sofa and octagonal coffee table, as well as a glazed floor that reflects the luxurious luster.

The old man of the Lu family was not in the living room, Lu Ziliang went directly to the study to find his father, he walked through the corridor to the study, and saw the old man wearing a comfortable Tang suit, sitting in a wide wooden chair with a dignified posture, looking down at the book in his hand.

The old man has a few old age spots on his face, his body is thin, but he is still in good spirits and his eyes are sharp, and behind him is a whole wall of bookcases, dozens of rows of books are placed, Confucianism, Taoism, Law, ink, name, miscellaneous, agriculture, vertical and horizontal...... The whole nine yards.

The old man of the Lu family is a truly learned figure, the old man of the Lu family has a gully in his chest, and his city and government strategies are all looked at by the backs of the Lu family.

The children, daughters-in-law, and sons-in-law of the Lu family all have awe and fear of this old man, except for Lu Ziliang, who is loved by the old man.

"Dad, I'm back. Lu Ziliang called Old Man Lu in a brisk voice.

Old Man Lu obviously knew that Lu Ziliang had entered the door, put down the book in his hand, and looked up at Lu Ziliang, he didn't speak, there was no expression on his calm face, but his gaze at Lu Ziliang seemed to have the momentum of thunder, and it smashed on Lu Ziliang's body with a huge weight.

Lu Ziliang was stunned by his father's gaze, although the old man Lu is usually serious and deep, he has always looked at Lu Ziliang differently, and he has never looked at Lu Ziliang so harshly.

"Dad......" Lu Ziliang couldn't help but feel uneasy, he felt the old man's anger, vaguely knew why, but he couldn't believe it, it stands to reason that his father shouldn't have known about his marriage to Zhou Chengcheng so soon.

Lu Ziliang smiled reluctantly under his father's eyes, "Dad, what's wrong?"

"Bastard thing!" Old Man Lu slapped the table, and the vibrating window lattice seemed to tremble.

The old man has never scolded Lu Ziliang like this, and these few words are enough to show how disappointed and annoyed he is at this moment.

Lu Ziliang was a little scared when he saw his old father so angry for the first time, so he hurriedly leaned over to his father and asked in a low voice, "Dad, what's wrong?"

"You still ask knowingly!" Old Man Lu was really angry, and waved his hand and gave Lu Ziliang a slap.

There was a sound of "pop", and the Venus in front of Lu Ziliang's eyes was chaotic.

Lu Ziliang was shocked, he knew that his father was really angry, so he hurriedly stood up and looked like he was being punished by his father.

Old Man Lu was slightly silent for a moment, and then said angrily, "Ziliang, what you did today is really not like what you should do, getting married is such a big thing, without discussing it with your family or telling me, you made your own registration, and it was with the woman surnamed Zhou." ”

Lu Ziliang closed his eyes, and his heart couldn't help sinking, it turned out that the reason for his father's anger was really Zhou Chengcheng.

He thought that the old man would oppose him marrying Zhou Chengcheng, so he looked for the first cut and then the prelude, so that even if the old man objected and scolded him a few more words, he didn't expect the old man's reaction to be so fierce.

Seeing his father's reaction, Lu Ziliang was worried, and he was afraid that the old man would forcibly let him divorce Zhou Chengcheng.

Zhou Chengcheng had just been hit by Lu Hou, if he divorced Zhou Chengcheng in a reversal, it would really hurt Zhou Chengcheng too much!

Lu Ziliang gritted his teeth and turned his heart sideways, he decided, no matter what, no matter what his father said, he would not give up Zhou Chengcheng.

"Dad, you are a person who does big things, you are a well-informed person, you should know that you can't know people by hearsay, you can't know a person from other people's mouths, Cheng Cheng is not a beast, she is not as unbearable as the legends outside, why do you object to me being with her like this?" Lu Ziliang explained anxiously.

"You don't have to put a high hat on me!" Lu Lao glared at Lu Ziliang fiercely, "What kind of person is that Zhou Chengcheng, I won't comment too much, but don't you know that she has been with Lu Hou once?

She just separated from Lu Hou, you are Lu Hou's uncle, how can you marry her, what do you let people outside think of you, what do you make Lu Hou think of you?"

"Dad, I don't want to live in the eyes of others, I can't give up the woman I love the most because of what others think of me. Lu Ziliang looked at Old Man Lu with firm eyes.

Seeing that Lu Ziliang was obsessed and unrepentant, Old Man Lu's face changed angrily, and he suddenly raised his hand, and he was going to hit Lu Ziliang again.

Lu Ziliang stood upright, looking at his father without moving, as if he was waiting for his father to beat him.

Old Man Lu really felt sorry for Lu Ziliang, looking at the red finger marks on Lu Ziliang's face, he couldn't do it anymore, he just sighed heavily, "Ziliang, you are confused about this matter!"

In the old father's heart-wrenching lament, Lu Ziliang felt that things were not as simple as he thought, and asked his father sullenly, "Dad, I just want to choose a woman I love to live for a lifetime, why do you make your old man so angry?"

Old Man Lu stared at Lu Ziliang's face for half a minute, and then pointed to the seat on the side and said, "Sit down and talk." ”

Lu Ziliang moved over and sat down a little aggrieved.

There was a set of tea sets on the tea table in front of him, and the spout of the small teapot was still steaming, Lu Ziliang took the teapot, put a cup of tea into a cup commonly used by the old man, and handed it to the old father's hand.

After all, Old Man Lu is a person who does great things, and after taking a sip of tea, his anger calmed down a lot, and he said to Lu Ziliang in a deep tone: "You and Lu Hou are not a few years old, you can be regarded as growing up together, Lu Hou's temperament You should know, is that a child who will easily admit defeat and compromise?"

He had a big quarrel with his family before, and the family agreed to let him have a relationship with a girl surnamed Zhou, and now that he suddenly regrets his marriage, don't you think about what might happen in the middle?"

Lu Ziliang stiffened his neck and snorted disdainfully, "I know Lu Hou, but I am not Lu Hou, for me, no matter what happens, don't want me to give up the woman I love, don't want to destroy the promise I made." ”

Old Man Lu was silent for a moment, and suddenly spoke: "You are older, but your mind is immature, the Lu family's big responsibility, you can no longer bear it in the future, if you must choose to marry a girl surnamed Zhou, you must hand over the company you control, and you can no longer be the head of the economic lifeline of the Lu family." ”

Lu Ziliang couldn't help but be shocked when he heard his father say this, he knew that his father would punish him, but he didn't expect that he would be punished so heavily.

The economic vein of the Lu family has always been firmly controlled by Lu Ziliang, and several brothers and sisters have also expressed dissatisfaction, and they have joined forces to seize power several times, but they have been suppressed by the old man, but I didn't expect the old man to ask Lu Ziliang to hand over such a big power because of Zhou Chengcheng's matter.

"Dad......" Lu Zi had an anxious conscience and wanted to argue with the old man.

The old man waved his hand at Lu Ziliang, leaned on the Taishi chair with his eyes closed, "Sheng Nanping killed his wife, the sister surnamed Zhou Yatou you want to marry!"

Old Man Lu was sitting in a relaxed posture at this time, with a gentle tone, but the words he said were like a big stone, and they fell heavily on Lu Ziliang's body.

"What?" Lu Ziliang couldn't help but be surprised.

He knew that Sheng Nanping's wife was Zhou Mo and Zhou Chengcheng's sister.

He also quickly understood why Lu Hou wanted to give up Zhou Chengcheng, who had just been engaged, at this time!

I also understand why the old father who loves him slaps him hard!

Indeed, he and Zhou Chengcheng's marriage was reckless, so much so that the rise and fall of the entire Lu family was ignored!

Lu Ziliang is not Lu Hou, he doesn't need his father to explain the key to this matter to him, he has been in the shopping mall all these years, he knows too well Sheng Nanping's decisiveness, he is ruthless, and he knows too well what the consequences of offending Sheng Nanping will be.

He quickly thought about the cause and effect of the whole thing, and he couldn't help but feel a cold sweat behind him.

Old Man Lu leaned on the Taishi's chair and looked at Lu Ziliang's eyes full of hatred and melancholy, "I will inform you of this matter one day later, you will cause such a mess, while everyone still doesn't know that you are married to a girl surnamed Zhou, you still have a choice."

You just need to nod, and I will explain the rest of the things to someone to do, to ensure that the girl will not make any trouble, no one will know about this matter, you are still the head of the Lu family, and everything will be treated as if nothing happened. ”

Lu Ziliang was silent in front of the choice given by his father.

The current development and growth of the Lu Group is directly related to Lu Ziliang's efforts over the years, he has been working hard for the development of the Lu family over the years, just for fear of being said by others that he is a useless second ancestor, for fear of being said that he is loved by the old man, but he is actually incapable, that is, he is afraid that he will live up to the love given to him by his father.

This company, just like his children, his flesh and bones, if he is allowed to give up and let go like this, it is really like chopping off his arm and taking off his heart.

However, if he chooses the company, he will definitely lose Zhou Chengcheng!
