Lu Xinqing turned ashen for a moment, then she laughed and said, “What nonsense are you speaking? I am my father’s daughter. What’s wrong with him leaving the company to me? You dare to doubt me?”
Someone laughed in response, “If that were the case, why did your mother say those things to her lover?”
Lu Xinqing turned red with anger at the mention of this. “This matter was nonsense to begin with. It is obvious that someone made this up on purpose! Whoever believes it is a fool! I have no time to be dithering with you when we have more important matters at hand.”
Having said that, she pulled her husband along and headed out of the meeting room.
Lu Wanyu bent a lanky leg and swung it on the chair, smiling as she said, “As long as this remains unsorted, no one is to leave.”
“Sorted? The media is being ridiculous and are you just as brainless? I’m your sister, do you dare deny that?”
“Exactly! Just what do you people want? Even if this matter were true, what does it have to do with the company? Before my father-in-law passed away, he said that he was leaving the business to Xinqing to manage. This is the truth. As for what’s on the news, that is our family affair, and it’s none of anyone else’s business.” Lu Xinqing’s husband added hurriedly.
A dark laugh erupted out of Lu Wanyu’s lips.
“Is that an admission?”
Lu Xinqing blasted, “What’s there to admit? I’m just using that as an example! Wanyu, stop making a fool out of yourself. Your childish act today has really damaged the company!”
“What has been damaged? Your ego?” Lu Wanyu got onto her feet, her figure towering slightly over Lu Xinqing’s. She said mockingly, “Single eye-lid, bulbous nose, jug handle ears… tsk tsk… tell me, both that mother of yours and my Dad don’t have these features. How did you get them? A mutation in your genes?”
The moment these words were spoken, there was a hint of guilt in Lu Xinqing’s appearance.
This morphed into an icy smile the next moment as she said, “Oh, I understand now. You’re jealous that Dad has left everything to me, that’s why you’ve done all these things to frame me. Lu Wanyu, you’re so childish and selfish! You don’t even think for the company and the family. It’s no wonder that Dad was unwilling to hand anything over to you!”
Having said that, she spun around and looked at the board members. “Since I’ve been appointed the Lu Corporation Board Chairman, I will not… argghhh!”
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Wanyu had grabbed her hair, yanking her head back, and making a move to slam her against the wall.
“What are you trying to do? Let her go!”
Lu Xinqing’s husband lunged forward, however was knocked over by the chair that Lu Wanyu had shoved in his way.
A few wisps of hair was plastered against the corner of Lu Wanyu’s mouth, completing her icy demeanor as she let out a chilling laugh. “Listen up
If I find proof that you are not my father’s daughter, not only will I kick you out of the Lu family, I will make it hard for you to ever remain in the capital!”
Those words frightened Lu Xinqing, but she steeled herself and retorted, “Go ahead and continue to make up your stories. No one cares.”
And right at this rattling moment, there was a knock on the door, and a voice called out, “Good afternoon, I am the lawyer appointed by Miss Lu Wanyu. We have now found strong evidence that can prove that Lu Xinqing is not the biological daughter of Mr. Lu Qintian.”
The expression on everyone’s face changed.
Lu Wanyu opened the door suspiciously.
A man dressed in a suit and leather shoes walked in, holding a document. He opened the document for all to see.
“Here is information relating to the time that Madam Chen Lan gave birth to Miss Lu Xinqing. It is sufficient evidence to prove that she is not the biological daughter of Lu Qintian.”
The appearance of this lawyer caused a big stir and it was a great slap to the faces of Lu Xinqing and her husband. They quickly left the meeting room with their heads down so that they could return home to discuss their next course of action.
After this incident, Lu Wanyu stayed behind with the lawyer. She looked at him with great caution and asked, “Who are you? Why do you want to help me?”
The lawyer smiled and replied, “Miss Lu, please come with me.
Lu Wanyu followed the lawyer down the building until they at last came up to a Bentley. When the car door opened, a look of surprise came over her face.
In the back seat of the car, Tang Qianmiao slowly turned to look at her with her pretty, peach blossom eyes. There was a hint of interest in them.
