Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Xu Shuhui’s ability to maintain a stable position within the Lu family was somewhat related to Xu Wan.

In terms of relations, Xu Shuhui could be considered Xu Wan’s cousin, making their bond relatively close. Now that they were sisters-in-law, their relationship had become even closer.

After all, within the circles of wealthy families, there were only a few people who could freely move about.

Xu Shuhui didn’t say anything and instead closed her eyes slowly.

Strengthening her relationship with Yu Anwan wouldn’t bring any harm to Xu Shuhui. She was well aware of Xu Wan’s affection for Yu Anwan. Furthermore, Yu Anwan’s appearance bore a striking resemblance to Xu Wan’s youth.

If Yu Anwan was truly a member of the Lu family, having one more person on her side would leave Han Huiru with no hope of success.

Xu Shuhui’s demeanor remained unchanged, and the car gradually distanced itself.

At that moment, Wen Jin had spent the entire night at the hospital without leaving.

Lu Nanxin’s condition couldn’t be described as dire, but it certainly wasn’t good either. Wen Jin was growing tired of Lu Nanxin’s repetitive turmoil.

It was as if his indulgence towards Lu Nanxin had emboldened her to push boundaries.

He had even resorted to threats.

It was impossible for Wen Jin to feel content. At the very least, his temperament and disposition didn’t permit anyone to manipulate him.

Therefore, under these circumstances, Wen Jin’s gaze on Lu Nanxin in the hospital bed turned increasingly somber.

Han Huiru was rushed to the hospital as well. She hadn’t expected a visit to the Lu family to escalate into such a situation.

It was impossible for Han Huiru to claim she had no thoughts about this matter.

But, as she observed Wen Jin’s somber expression, Han Huiru could more or less guess what had transpired.

Now, Han Huiru looked at Lu Chongming passively, hoping he would speak up.

Lu Chongming’s face remained cold as he sat there, showing no intention of speaking.

In Lu Chongming’s eyes, Wen Jin was a junior. He couldn’t fathom why he should plead with Wen Jin when a junior was throwing a fit in front of an elder.

Lu Chongming’s pride in the Lu family ran deep, even though he was well aware that he had been marginalized by the family.

However, Lu Chongming would never lower his head to Wen Jin in such a situation.

Wen Jin had no intention of speaking either.

Han Huiru tensed momentarily, but then she quickly turned her attention to Wen Jin.

“Wen Jin, about this matter…” Han Huiru began, but she didn’t have a chance to finish her sentence as Lu Nanxin, lying on the hospital bed, showed signs of movement.

This time, Han Huiru suppressed the words she had intended to speak and hurriedly approached Lu Nanxin’s side.

“Nanxin, you’ve finally woken up. If you didn’t, you would have frightened Mommy!” Han Huiru coaxed Lu Nanxin.

Lu Nanxin was quite weak. When she looked at Han Huiru, her eyes held an inexplicable sense of grievance.

Seeing this, Han Huiru’s heart ached.

Han Huiru knew very well that Lu Chongming had only one daughter, Lu

Nanxin. As long as she survived, she could rightfully lay claim to her position.

After all, Lu Nanxin bore the Lu family name and was part of the family’s lineage.

So, Han Huiru wouldn’t allow any harm to come to Lu Nanxin.

Interestingly, after giving birth to Lu Nanxin, Han Huiru wanted to have another child, but she hadn’t been able to conceive.

Thus, Lu Nanxin remained Han Huiru’s sole trump card.

“Mommy…” Lu Nanxin called out to Han Huiru and then looked at Lu Chongming, softly uttering, “Daddy…”

No matter how infuriated Lu Chongming might be with Lu Nanxin’s failures, she was still his biological daughter. Lu Chongming’s expression softened.

Lu Chongming then turned to Wen Jin. “Wen Jin, it’s alright. Why don’t you clarify things today? Don’t hang onto the Lu family like this, and don’t act recklessly just because Nanxin loves you.”

Lu Chongming’s tone was confrontational, and his gaze towards Wen Jin was unwavering.

This was forcing Wen Jin to make a choice.

Wen Jin remained motionless, seemingly unaffected by Lu Chongming’s words.

In this situation, Lu Nanxin, under the protection of her father Lu Chongming, adopted a more assertive stance. “Daddy, I don’t want to see him,” she declared.

The father-daughter pair appeared to coordinate well.

Wen Jin didn’t even flinch, standing there with one hand in his pocket.

Wen Jin’s attitude seemed to further agitate Lu Chongming. “Wen Jin, I’ve never approved of your engagement with Nanxin, but she insisted on choosing you. All these years, you two have been indecisive, and I haven’t said anything. But now that Yu Anwan has returned, you’re wavering between Yu Anwan and

Nanxin. Do you think I can tolerate this?”

His tone grew harsher, and the tension in the hospital room became palpable.

Wen Jin’s eyelids twitched slightly, and he shifted his gaze to Lu Chongming. “So, Uncle, are you asking me to commit?”

“What else?” Lu Chongming sneered. “Do you want Nanxin to witness your entanglement with Yu Anwan?”

These words made Lu Nanxin nervous, but she refrained from responding and

Although Wen Jin’s gaze made Lu Nanxin uneasy, the presence of Lu

Chongming in the room gave her a sense of courage.

Moreover, Lu Nanxin believed that this issue was not her fault, it lay with Wen Jin.

Wen Jin’s voice remained composed as he inquired, “Do you want me to leave?”

Lu Nanxin felt a jolt when confronted with this question. She couldn’t deny that she was afraid. However, with her back against the wall, and under the watchful eye of Lu Chongming, Lu Nanxin had no escape.

“Wen Jin, you pursued Yu Anwan right in front of me. Your words have undoubtedly slapped me in the face. How can you be so heartless?” Lu Nanxin’s voice was gentle, and her words painted Wen Jin as cruel and unfeeling. Wen Jin responded with indifference, asking, “Is there anything else?”

Lu Nanxin didn’t anticipate this attitude from Wen Jin. Previously, no matter how upset she had been or how she had pushed Wen Jin, he had always been patient and had comforted her.

But now, Lu Nanxin wasn’t so sure.

It was an instinctual feeling that Wen Jin no longer wanted to console her.

This feeling left Lu Nanxin in a state of panic.

The more flustered she became, the more she acted in ways that were beyond her usual behavior.

However, it was unexpected that Lu Chongming would be the one to speak up.

“Wen Jin. ”

Lu Nanxin’s heart raced, but Wen Jin’s response remained unchanged. “Uncle, please go on.”

“Today, you must decide in front of me. Do you want Nanxin or Yu Anwan? If it’s the latter, then there’s no need for your engagement to continue with

Nanxin. I, Lu Chongming’s daughter, have plenty of suitors willing to line up for her hand in marriage. You are not the only option.”

Lu Chongming made it clear..
