Chapter 756: Elder Dou Arguing With Patriarch Lu 2

“Grandpa, isn’t he here because he thinks Ah Jing used the Lu Group’s money to buy the art gallery? In that case, let’s straighten out everything today.”

The moment Zi Yi said that, the few people blocking in front of her made their way to the side.

Zi Yi walked over and looked at Patriarch Lu, she then started to speak. “This shop was gifted to us by a big boss. The renovations and interior were paid for by Ian. Most importantly, the art gallery was opened by me, my cousin Xiangling and Ian.”

As soon as Zi Yi said that, Ian came forward. “What Zi said is true. I paid for the renovations and I spent a total of 326.7 million. Patriarch Lu, if you wish to see the invoices, I’ll get someone to send them over right away.”

Dou Xiangling also stepped forward. “I’ve kept the shop transfer contract that the boss had given to Zi Yi. If Elder Lu wishes to look at it, I’ll go get it right away.”

Patriarch Lu’s expression was livid.

Yang Yuelan who was helping him up also had an unsightly expression.

Lu Jingye stepped in front of Zi Yi and said, “When I left the Lu Group, the Lu Group’s financial team had already liquidated all my property. Let me tell you about the current private property I own. In the last economic war, Yiyi and I made nearly 100 billion in the midst of it, and subsequently, we invested it in…”

The moment Lu Jingye started talking about his assets, everyone was too stunned to speak.

They knew of Lu Jingye’s abilities in the business world, but when he really mentioned it one by one, it had overwhelmed all their knowledge of him.

After Lu Jingye was done, he looked at Patriarch Lu with a calm expression. “The starting capital was all from the money that Yiyi earned from her bar. Grandfather, do you think I am incapable of doing anything after I leave the Lu Family?”

At that very moment, Patriarch Lu was so shocked that he stood rooted to the ground.

In particular, Mrs. Lu added. “When you disapproved of Yiyi entering the Lu Family, we had transferred their household registration out and opened a new one. Therefore, Jingye is not part of the Lu Family anymore.”

Patriarch Lu felt blood surging up to his head and in the next second, his eyes rolled back and he passed out.

“Grandfather!”

Yang Yuelan’s voice broke due to fright.

The others had also gotten a fright.

Eldest Master Lu quickly came over and supported Patriarch Lu.

The moment Lu Jianlin and the two Lu Brothers saw the situation, they were also about to head over.

Zi Yi took out a silver needle and before the three of them went over, she inserted the needle into one of Patriarch Lu’s acupuncture points.

Patriarch Lu instantly regained consciousness.

He angrily pointed at the second household. “You… you…”

Elder Dou, however, laughed. “Lu Jinghong, do you feel extremely regretful right now? But it’s too late. I’ve heard about this matter from Yiyi before. The household register was personally ordered by that person to be transferred out. Even if you want to have him transfer it back, it’s too late.”

Patriarch Lu’s body staggered again.

Elder Dou’s words were sharp and unrelenting. He did not plan to hold back his punches at all. “You are already someone who died once. Everyone thought that you would change after experiencing a life and death event. It seems like we have overestimated you. Our Yiyi is not your soldier and if not for the fact that you are Jingye’s grandfather, she could not even be bothered to talk to you.

“She does not need to borrow your Lu Family’s influence to show her outstanding qualities. Not to mention… your Lu Family has now ended up as a pastime joke due to your actions. Even if you are willing to recognize Yiyi, we aren’t willing for her to enter your Lu Family.”

“You-… you!”

“You’re someone who has one foot in the grave and even if you don’t think about the future generations, you should think about yourself. You were a hero respected by everyone, so don’t let yourself end up becoming a laughing stock to everyone.

“Our Yiyi is now a researcher greatly valued by the country and Jingye is the royal merchant. Moreover, everything that has happened has nothing to do with you anymore.”

Elder Dou had been a headmaster for the majority of his life and he did not look at one’s status or age when he lectured them.

Others stood behind Elder Dou and none of them interrupted him.

Even Eldest Master Lu standing next to Patriarch Lu had also remained silent.

The moment Elder Dou started his lecture, he had talked for dozens of minutes.

Patriarch Lu was just like a beast trapped in a cage. He wanted to unleash his fangs and bite people, but he could not get out of the cage at all.

What made him unable to accept the situation the most was that the grandson he was the proudest of had really moved his household register out from the Lu Family.

The strong setback caused him to lose all his strength in an instant.

“Grandfather!”

Patriarch Lu opened his mouth and realized that he could not make any sounds.

He anxiously grabbed onto Eldest Master Lu’s arm.

Eldest Master Lu saw that Patriarch Lu looked unwell and he asked, “Father, what’s wrong?”

Patriarch Lu opened his mouth but could not utter any sounds no matter how hard he tried.

Just then, Zi Yi’s voice sounded. “He…”

After she mentioned a series of medical terms, she made a summary. “It means that he is unable to accept everyone’s disobedience and it has caused a knot to form in his heart. Thus, he is unable to speak.”

Her words caused everyone to look at Patriarch Lu nervously.

Patriarch Lu’s expression was ugly to the extreme.

Lu Jianlin asked in a complicated mood, “Yiyi, can this condition be cured?”

“As long as he can calm himself down. If he can’t, he’ll remain a mute forever.”

Patriarch Lu’s expression had a huge change.

Lu Jianlin walked over to Patriarch Lu and supported him together with Eldest Master Lu.

Lu Jianlin said to him, “Father, if you don’t want to become a mute for your whole life, go back home with us.”

With that, Eldest Master Lu and he seemed to have a tacit understanding and they supported Patriarch Lu to the car parked at the side.

After Eldest Master Lu took a few steps, he sternly shouted to Yang Yuelan standing over to the side, “Why are you still standing there? Do you now find yourself shameful enough?”

Yang Yuelan trembled and she followed them.

Looking at the car that was driving away, everyone looked confused.

Elder Dou looked at the departing car and said, “If he’s still unable to repent after today, he’s really hopeless.”

He turned to Zi Yi and wanted to ask if she was the one who made Patriarch Lu unable to speak.

The others also had the same thought and they all looked at Zi Yi.

Zi Yi shrugged her shoulders innocently. “I didn’t do anything to him this time.”

Having said that, she recalled that the silver needle she had inserted into Patriarch Lu had yet to be taken out and so she said to Lu Jingye, “Ah Jing, get your Father to take out the silver needle from him.”

Everyone looked at Zi Yi.

Lu Jingye asked, “Is it fine for Father to take it out?”

“It’s fine, just that it might hurt a little. Otherwise, call Elder Hu. If he’s still over there, he can remove the silver needle.”

Lu Jingye nodded his head, took out his phone, and made a phone call.

Zi Yi held Elder Dou’s arm and said, “Grandpa, let’s go in.”

Elder Dou nodded his head and the group of them headed back inside the art gallery.

When Zi Yi walked to the door, the invisible wall disappeared.

Nangong Yun, who was standing there, raised her hand and was touching it. Subsequently, she said to Nangong Yu. “Brother, if this technology can be used in certain things, it would definitely have good results.”

Nangong Yu did not respond to her.
