I remember when I was a child, he and his brother Lu Shangyan were punished for doing something wrong in this study.

The father has an iron and bloody hand all his life, and he will not be soft on his children at all, and if one of the two brothers makes a mistake, the two of them will be punished together, and every time they are beaten all over their bodies.

Later, the two brothers grew up, although there was almost no beating and scolding, the atmosphere became more serious than before, more and more things in the company, with the growth of business funds, more and more negotiation decisions related to the fate of the family, were determined here.

This time, why did Dad call him over?

Lu Shangqi's heart was infinitely worried, and he cautiously pushed open the door, and saw that Old Man Lu was sitting upright on the Taishi chair with a frosty face.

"Dad, Shun'an said you were looking for me?" He smiled, trying to lighten the mood.

Before he could laugh for a while, the old man spoke: "You kneel down for me!" ”

With a "plop", Lu Shangqi knelt on his knees and smashed on the wooden floor under him, every time he was punished by his father, it was this opening, and he was used to it.

Old Man Lu took a deep breath: "Do you know why?" ”

Looking at his son, who was already in his forties, Old Man Lu's lips trembled, and he didn't know if he was angry or because he was too disappointed.

"I ...... Know. He bowed his head heavily, not daring to look his father in the eye again.

He knows everything that he and Zhuang Yuexian are husband and wife, so husband and wife are of the same heart, Zhuang Yuexian said something like that, whether he said it or not, in his father's eyes, he said it.

"It's good to know. The Lu family's family business was created by me. Your wife has a lot to say, who will I hand over this family business to in the end, and I don't know. ”

Lu Shangqi thought about this question for a long time, but he couldn't get an answer for a long time, and now that his father is suspicious, he might as well ask clearly: "Dad, you only have one son with me now, do you have any other choice?" ”

The eldest brother has been gone for a few years, and Old Man Lu is getting older and older, but he has no plans to fight.

People from the outside world are talking about it, saying that he Lu Shangqi is not as good as Lu Shangyan, even if Lu Shangyan is dead, the old man will not hand over the Lu family to him.

Is it nice to be poked in the back every day?

As everyone knows, when Old Man Lu heard this, he smiled, and seemed to have been waiting for this sentence for a long time.

"Absolutely. If the future generations can't continue my family business, I will simply disperse, accumulate virtue for the children, and bless the descendants of our Lu family endlessly. You've been asking this question for a long time, right? Shanqi, also my son, do you know why your brother always crushes you? A man may be unintentional, but he must not do evil. You're thoughtful, but you're too fond of getting into the horns......"

……

Time passed quickly, and Lu Shangqi left Old Man Lu's study covered in injuries. Zhuang Yuexian's frightened face turned white.

Nie Anxia only heard that the corridor was very noisy, and when she was curious, she went out to take a look, and the man in the white coat hurriedly walked by, and was stopped by Nie Anxia: "What's the matter?" Who was hurt? ”

The direction where the doctor went was facing the room where Lu Shangqi and Zhuang Yuexian were going, could it be that one of them was injured?

Nie Anxia has not been in the Lu family for a long time, and because what she has done is so unexpected, basically no one does not know her.

When the doctor recognized Nie Anxia, he immediately said, "Miss Nie, the second master is unwell, I'll go and see him first." ”

"Second master?"

Lu Shangqi was fine before, why did he feel unwell after turning around?

Nie Anxia thought about it, it seems that this is also the case, Lu Shangqi is not young, and it is understandable that he is not feeling well.

But soon, Nie Anxia's idea was quickly overturned, and the maid Anna trotted out of Lu Shangqi's room with a panicked expression, and took a bunch of fabrics in her hand.

Nie Anxia glanced at it more, and her heart trembled.

Isn't this the clothes Lu Shangqi wore before? Why is it all bloodstains? It doesn't seem that the doctor just said that he was just feeling unwell!

At this moment, Lu Shichen also came back, he looked at Nie Anxia standing in place in a daze, and immediately asked suspiciously, "What are you doing here?" Tired of it? ”

Lu Shichen has always been busy, but now he is idle and wandering around, which is really uncomfortable, and it is not good to always nest in the room, after all, the two of them are not that kind of relationship.

Nie Anxia didn't speak, but gave Lu Shichen a look.

Lu Shichen looked over and saw people coming in and out of Lu Shangqi's room, all looking hurried.

Immediately, he directly pulled Nie Anxia back to the room: "You can also see this kind of thing, don't you think that the life in the Lu family is too dull, and you want to find some excitement?" ”

"Bland? I'm acting like a palace fight drama every day, which of your eyes can see that it's dull? Nie Anxia said unconvinced. But with serious things in front of her, she wouldn't reason with Lu Shichen about these useless things.

"I just saw Anna running out with Lu Shangqi's bloody clothes, looking very anxious. What's going on? With a concerned attitude, she turned her head and saw Lu Shichen's very calm face, and couldn't help but have a thought in her heart, could it be that this guy knows something?

"Family law is just waiting. What's all the fuss! Lu Shichen sneered, obviously not taking this seriously.

"Family law waiting? Your Lu family's family law is going to see blood? ”

It's just scary, okay? In this day and age, child abuse is a crime!

"Old man Lu has an iron wrist and has always been ruthless in beating children, could it be that you haven't heard of it?" Lu Shichen said casually, but his brows were tightly furrowed-

It turns out that people who have received the old man's family law are like this.

When the mother was already delirious, she didn't know anything, not even her own son, but she still remembered the story of her and her father.

In order to marry his mother, his father entered the door, and endured countless family law waitings of the old man Lu with his body, and every time he came back from the Lu house, he was covered with blood, and he was so scared that as long as his father returned to the Lu house, she couldn't sleep all night long.

But even so, even if he gave up the glory and wealth of the Lu family, his father still chose to stay with his mother for the rest of his life.

He listened to his mother crying and talking about the past with his father, and he could only feel his mother's distress for his father. Now that I see that Lu Shangqi has also received family law, I suddenly have an idea.

My father's disobedience to the old man's wishes back then was probably much heavier than what Lu Shangqi suffered, right?

Nie Anxia was choked and was speechless for a moment, and it took a while to find her voice without confidence.

"Even if you hear about it, it can't be like this, Lu Shangqi won't be treated like this since he was a child, right?"

She suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Lu Shangqi, since she was a child, Nie Anxia was a little princess who was held in the palm of her father's hand, and she had never even spoken loudly to her, let alone beaten and scolded.

"If this is not the case, why do you think Lu Shangqi is nearly fifty years old, and he still doesn't dare to be a little presumptuous in front of the old man? Old Man Lu made a move, not ordinary ruthless, they were afraid of beating since they were children. ”

Lu Shichen didn't really spend much time in the Lu family, but his mother knew the situation of the Lu family very well, and before entering the mental hospital, she often gave Lu Shichen information about the Lu family.

It's not that Lu Shichen wants to rob anything, just because it was his father's former home.

"I see."

After Lu Shichen's father Lu Shangyan passed away, it stands to reason that the heir is already a certainty, but Old Man Lu refused to let go.

Everyone was concerned about Lu Shangqi's attitude, but they found that he was very cowardly, and kept shouting slogans in his mouth saying that he supported any decision made by the old man.

Scheming like Lu Shangqi, with what he usually does, how can he not have ambition for the big fat meat of the Lu family?

Everyone blamed him for cowardice and secretly denied his talent, but he endured it, it turned out that it was because of this that Nie Anxia understood everything now.

Lu Shichen sighed faintly for some reason, thinking in his heart.

I hope that the old man can dissipate his anger now, and he can mention the matter of marriage to the old man.

Lu Shangqi is old in the end, and his injuries are quite serious, and he has been raised for a week, Zhuang Yuexian, as his wife, has been serving by his side, and he will never leave.

Now there are no two people in the house or outside, Nie Anxia is much more at ease, bored, she went to Lu Shichen's study and flipped through the books on it, but accidentally saw a disk.

What is this?

She looked at the disk curiously, thinking that this was Lu Shichen's thing, and it would not be good if she moved it casually. It's a pity that Lu Shichen is processing documents next door at this time, and she can't bother with video conferences.

However, just as she put down the disk and was about to wait for Lu Shichen to come out, a big hand suddenly appeared and took away the disk in her hand: "What are you doing here?" If you're bored, you can go out for a walk. ”

Lu Shichen pinched his eyes tiredly, sat on the chair with his ass, and didn't look at Nie Anxia more during the whole process.

"I don't want to go out." Nie Anxia cried with a sad face, the life of the Lu family was really difficult, she couldn't wait to grow wings and fly out of the high wall of the Lu family.

In the past two days, she has finished turning the Lu family's garden, and she really can't find a fun place.

"When will we talk about getting married?"

As long as the marriage of the two is settled, she doesn't have to die here.

"I guess it's going to take a while. If the old man doesn't show up, no one can do anything. Could it be that you still expect your aunt and uncle to agree to our marriage? ”

"Forget it, your uncle and aunt, don't mention it." Nie Anxia hurriedly refused, and the hope that burned in his heart was once again dashed. I had to pay attention to the book in my hand.

Because she was nurtured by her father since she was a child, she was very interested in history, so much so that when choosing a major, she did not hesitate to choose the history department.

It's a pity that the only history book in Lu Shichen's study is 5,000 years of China, and it is also a classical Chinese version.

The mobile phone rang suddenly, breaking Nie Anxia's spirit that had finally been focused.

"Lu Shichen, your phone is ringing."

Lu Shichen looked at the mobile phone on the desk and said lightly: "It's not mine." ”

Nie Anxia suddenly felt that something was wrong, reached out and touched her pocket, only to know that her mobile phone was ringing, and when she saw the remarks and names displayed on the mobile phone screen, she quickly pressed the answer button.

Before Nie Anxia put the earpiece to her ear, she heard the woman's voice shouting loudly: "Nie Anxia, you are absent from work for no reason, and you have to call your mother, what do you think?" ”

The woman's voice was full of anger, and there was a husky personality characteristic of middle-aged women, and just listening to it, you could think of how shrewd this woman was.
