When Gu Rouer heard this, she was immediately overjoyed.
She almost regarded Mr. Lu as her savior, and stood up hurriedly: "Thank you grandpa for justice, but..."
The smile on Gu Rouer's face slowly faded, and she put on a troubled look and said, "It's just that my father may not be able to see Wei Yan. He...had an accident."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.
Even Mr. Lu looked at Nan Yan in surprise.
He frowned and asked, "Nan Yan, why didn't you tell me that something happened to your father?"
As an in-law, even if Gu Lang was not good to Nan Yan, Mr. Lu would give him a hand for Nan Yan's sake.
Nan Yan looked troubled, thinking of the plot that happened that day, the last bit of warmth in her heart dissipated.
That day, if Lu Huaijing hadn't arrived in time, she might have been bullied by the man named Feng.
However, Nan Yan could not tell her grandfather about this.
After all, his body is just right.
After being silent for a long time, Nan Yan finally said coldly: "Grandpa, this matter is indeed my father's—"
"Then it's obvious that the people below are disobedient!" Gu Rou'er interrupted Nan Yan's words directly.
How could she let Nan Yan continue talking?
Gu Rouer immediately stood up and bowed to Mr. Lu aggrievedly.
She choked up and explained: "Grandpa, there was a project on the beach a few days ago. My father and the Lu family cooperated, but the contractor did not listen to dissuasion and actually worked on it in the rain, causing injuries to people and causing serious injuries. Loss of the project.”
"Grandpa, I know that my brother-in-law is a fair and just person, so I have never mentioned a word about his lawsuit against my father. I don't want to say it out and affect everyone. However, if Wei Yan comes to propose marriage, he can only meet in person. Meet my mother..."
Gu Rouer burst into tears as she spoke, as if she was the victim.
Mr. Lu frowned and said in a cold voice: "I also know about the engineering accident. Since you have said it yourself and agree with Huai Jing's handling, it means that you are still a sensible person. Then …”
"grandfather……!"
Lu Weiyan couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and said loudly, "No, this matter has a very bad impact on the Lu family. We can't just let it go!"
Gu Rou'er didn't expect that Lu Weiyan would suddenly stand up and speak.
Tang Yu, who was on the side, also seized the opportunity and quickly followed up and said: "Yes, dad, we can't let this matter go so easily. Besides, she is about to marry Wei Yan, and there is someone in jail." The in-laws and the Lu family can’t bear to show their shame!”
She has long hated this scheming woman. If it weren't for her, her Wei Yan would have been able to marry a rich man, and he wouldn't have been overpowered by Lu Huaijing!
Gu Rouer clenched her fists and dug her nails deeply into her palms, forcing herself to hold back.
So, she still looked like she was about to cry: "Wei Yan, I understand what you mean. On behalf of the Gu family, I apologize to you..."
She said before bowing again.
But this time, Mr. Lu stopped her.
"alright."
The old man's voice was not loud, but full of majesty, and he said coldly: "Weiyan, the Gu family has not denied this matter. You are going to marry the Gu family's daughter. This matter must not be made a big deal."
He said, turning to look at Nan Yan: "Yanyan, what do you think?"
Nan Yan was surprised when her name was suddenly called. She was so entangled in her heart that it was Lu Huaijing who sent Gu Lang in just to vent her anger.
If she betrays her at this time, isn't she actually poking Lu Huaijing's back?
Let him be a villain in vain. Nan Yan can't do this kind of thing.
She was confused and at a loss, and could only say hesitantly: "Grandpa, I..."
"I did this, Grandpa, you should ask me."
Before Nan Yan finished speaking, he was interrupted by a familiar and cold voice.
Everyone looked toward the door.
Lu Huaijing was seen walking straight in wearing a black windbreaker, wrapped in the evening wind.
Nan Yan's eyes lit up instantly.
Didn't he... go on a business trip? Why are you back so soon?
The cold man first bowed to Mr. Lu, and then said in a deep voice: "Grandpa, although the Gu family and the Lu family are about to get married again, there is really something else hidden about Miss Gu's father."
As soon as these words came out, Gu Rouer became nervous instantly.
Even Nan Yan was shocked. She stared at Lu Huaijing closely and tried her best to give hints with her eyes.
But Lu Huaijing just glanced at her and ignored her. He just said in an indifferent voice: "Grandpa, Aunt Lin asked you to make the decision to let Nan Yan marry me, so that there would be someone who could protect her. As for the Gu family -"
His cold eyes fell on Gu Rouer's face, whose face was gradually turning gray.
"They know exactly what Nanyan is like! Gu Lang changed the construction team without permission, which resulted in injuries to the construction workers and delays in the project. I haven't calculated the losses with the Gu family yet. Why is Miss Gu so anxious? Are you here to clear your name?"
The words were spoken loudly, and Gu Rouer's face became even more ugly.
She gave Gu Nanyan a hard look, then gritted her teeth and said, "Brother-in-law, I'm not trying to clear my name, I'm just stating the facts——"
"If you really knew that you were wrong, you shouldn't have mentioned this matter!"
Lu Huaijing didn't listen to her sophistry at all, and interrupted in a cold voice: "Miss Gu, my wife took care of the Gu family's face and didn't tell you what you did. That's because she's a nice person. If you really feel embarrassed, she'll be even more embarrassed." We should restrain ourselves and not regard her kindness as a stepping stone for her face!"
The sharp words made Gu Rouer speechless for a moment.
Nan Yan was even more shocked.
She stared at the rich and handsome man in surprise, but her heart seemed to be wrapped in warmth.
This was the first time that he defended her like this in front of the Lu family and the Gu family...
Gu Rou'er panicked and quickly looked at Mr. Lu, only to find that his expression became even gloomier.
She wanted to explain: "Grandpa, I didn't mean that, I just-"
"enough!"
Mr. Lu interrupted sternly. He changed his pleasant look before. There was clearly a sharp murderous look in his eyes that had experienced the world.
"Miss Gu, the matter between you and Wei Yan is not very honorable. As for the company's matters, that is business. Since it is business, it should not be discussed at home!"
The meaning of these words was to completely cut off Gu Rouer's thoughts.
Her delicate face instantly turned gray, and she sat down on the chair slumped.
Mr. Lu glanced out of the corner of his eye, then waved and said, "Huai Jing, you came back just in time. The whole family just happened to be sitting together to have a meal."
Lu Huaijing nodded, walked straight to Nan Yan, and grabbed hers with his big hands.
The catkins were already cold, which showed that he was really angry just now.
Lu Huaijing frowned, pressed her shoulders to make her sit down, and at the same time, he sat next to her very naturally.
