Chapter 1514 - 1514 Asking for Huge Compensation (3)
Lu Gang’s face was as dark as ink. His eyes, which were as big as copper bells, looked like he couldn’t wait to swallow Cheng Su’er alive.
“Patriarch.”
Before Lu Gang said something he shouldn’t have, the leader stopped him in time and signaled him not to be impulsive with his eyes.
The guards Cheng Su’er brought with her were all the eldest prince’s men. Apparently, the eldest prince knew that Cheng Su’er came to the Lu family.
In fact, it was also possible that the eldest prince instructed Cheng Su’er to ask for two million Spirit Stones.
Otherwise, with Cheng Su’er’s vengeful personality, she wouldn’t have let Lu Hejun walk out unscathed.
Obviously, they kept Lu Hejun for last so that they had enough chips to negotiate with the Lu family.
“Father! If you want to save me, you must save me! I’m your only son. If anything happens to me, you’ll have no descendants!”
Seeing that his father stopped talking, Lu Hejun immediately became so anxious that he spoke without thinking.
“Shut up!” Lu Gang shouted angrily. If it weren’t for the fact that the situation wasn’t right, he would have gone over and beaten that unfilial son to death long ago!
However, that was just a thought.
His pregnant concubine more than a year ago had already given birth. He thought it would be a boy, but it was a girl.
So, a year later, he, Lu Gang, still only had one unfilial son, Lu Hejun!
In order to keep his family line, no matter how angry he was in his mind, he had to protect this only seedling.
However, when he thought that it was a total of a million Spirit Stones, his heart couldn’t help bleeding.
“Alright, two million Spirit Stones it is, but we need time to prepare.” Lu Gang finally lowered his head.
Of course, he lowered his head so easily because he guessed that the Spirit Stones Cheng Su’er asked for were very likely instructed by the eldest prince.
Lu Gang’s compromise didn’t make Cheng Su’er happy. Instead, her expression became even uglier.
Because she didn’t want the Lu family to protect Lu Hejun in her mind. This way, she could torture Lu Hejun to death!
But… Lu Gang chose to protect him!
Thinking that she couldn’t avenge herself after enduring humiliation for the past year, Cheng Su’er’s face twisted uncontrollably and the hatred in her eyes almost drowned her rationality.
“Lu Hejun, you’re really tough. I’ll wait and see how long your life can last!”
Cheng Su’er stood up angrily and left, leaving a few words. “I’ll give you three days. If I don’t see two million Spirit Stones in three days, the Lu family can just wait to disappear from Zhuang Prefectural City!”
After Cheng Su’er left, the atmosphere in the front yard of the Lu family still wasn’t good.
“What does the eldest prince mean by this?!” One of the elders couldn’t help but speak first.
Another elder also said with a dark expression, “Back then, His Highness secretly asked us to suppress the Liang family, so we did as he said. We even sent him the millions of Spirit Stones we got from the Liang family without leaving anything behind. Now, he’s turning against us. How ridiculous!”
“What His Highness did is really disappointing. He’s simply kicking someone to the curb when they’ve outlived their usefulness. He’s turning his back on us!”
The slightly chubby elder also said angrily, “Patriarch, are we really going to suffer this in silence? Don’t forget that the Lu family’s treasure vault was stolen a year ago and we haven’t recovered yet.
“Two million Spirit Stones isn’t a small amount for the Lu family right now.”
