Chapter 72: Heartless Change of Face by Young Master Lu
Chen Mengyun arrived at the Lu family's home, also with a dozen assistants, carrying a large pile of big and small bags.
As soon as she entered the house, she felt that the atmosphere was not right. The entrance hall was piled with various gifts. Chen Mengyun was considered a regular visitor at the Lu family's home, and she often came and went when she was dating Lu Chengwen, so she knew very well that the Lu family did not like receiving gifts, and it was very difficult to give them gifts.
But today, there were too many things.
Chen Mengyun was afraid of getting her things mixed up, so she instructed: "Put our things over there, separate from the others."
"Yes, Miss."
Chen Mengyun saw the backs of Lu Guanghong and his wife trying to leave through the large side door, and immediately shouted with joy: "Uncle, Aunt!"
Lu Guanghong had no choice but to stop and turn around with a forced smile: "Oh, Mengyun is here. Chengwen is inside, go find him."
"Uncle, Aunt!"
Chen Mengyun ran over and took Lu Mama's arm: "Aunt, Uncle, I came here specifically to see you, not to bother that guy Lu Chengwen. I bought you so many good things!"
Lu Guanghong thought to himself, "You better not bother him, just treat him like dog shit."
But who would believe that!?
"If you're not here for Lu Chengwen, why did you buy us gifts? It's been a long time since you last visited."
Lu Mama forced a smile: "There's no need to spend so much, we're all family, that... Chengwen, Mengyun is here!"
Lu Chengwen had a headache, he walked to the side corridor and looked at Chen Mengyun: "What are you doing here?"
Chen Mengyun instantly felt a hundred times unhappy.
"You can't even bother with basic courtesy anymore? Do I annoy you that much?"
Chen Mengyun said with a straight face: "I'm not here to see you, I'm here to see Uncle and Aunt."
Lu Chengwen nodded: "Dad, Mom, she's looking for you, you guys chat."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
Lu Mama was immediately anxious.
She chased after Lu Chengwen and grabbed him, her eyes seemingly on fire: "How old are your father and I? Can we handle you tossing us around like this? What have you been doing lately? How come... they've all come to our door? Did you do something to them?"
Lu Chengwen lowered his voice: "I didn't do anything, they're just going crazy on their own."
They come to fawn over you when you haven't done anything? Do you think you're a love guru? You created this mess, you deal with it! Your father and I still want to live a few more years!"
After saying that, she turned around and looked at Chen Mengyun, who was looking downcast and said with a smile: "Mengyun, don't listen to his nonsense, he often mentions you recently. You two have a good chat, I'll go treat your uncle's heart disease."
"Ah? Heart disease?"
Lu Mama hit Lu Guanghong, and Lu Guanghong, who was still in a daze, immediately came back to his senses and clutched his chest: "Oh no, no, my heart..."
Lu Mama: "Old man, slow down!"
Lu Guanghong: "I need to see a doctor!"
"Old man, slow down."
"I need to see a doctor."
"Old man, slow down..."
Chen Mengyun felt strangely bizarre.
This couple seemed to have seen a ghost when they saw her. They were faking illness. Their upper bodies pretended to tremble, while their legs moved quickly, walking briskly!
They walked to the path in front of the courtyard and simply ran away together. They made a sharp turn at the pool and disappeared.
"This... what happened to Uncle and Aunt?"
"It has nothing to do with you." Lu Chengwen said stiffly: "What do you want from me?"
"Do you have to treat me like this?" Chen Mengyun said委屈ly: "I'm a girl! I have self-respect too!"
"Big sister, if you have self-respect, then don't bother with me. I'm already like this, why are you still coming to me?"
Chen Mengyun was so aggrieved that tears welled up in her eyes: "What did I do wrong to make you hate me so much?"
"You were the one who dumped me back then! The revenge of being dumped is irreconcilable! We'll never be done in this lifetime! No, we're completely done in this lifetime!"
Chen Mengyun screamed: "You were the one who cheated!"
"That was your brother who got me drunk and threw two women onto my bed!"
"Then you let them get into your bed?"
"Sister, I was dead drunk. Those two women just sat there playing with their phones, each earning 50,000 yuan. I didn't do anything!"
"Then why didn't you explain it to me!?"
"Did you listen to my explanation? As soon as I woke up, you grabbed the vase splashed water all over my face, and even slapped me in front of all my brothers!"
"So it's my fault!?"
"What else could it be!?"
Chen Mengyun's lips were trembling with anger, she bit her lip tightly: "Then why are you being so nice to me now?"
Lu Chengwen's eyes widened: "Sister, are you sick? You call this being nice? Are you a masochist? I don't want to have anything to do with you at all!"
Lu Chengwen widened his eyes: "Sister, are you sick? You call this being nice? Are you a masochist? I don't want to have anything to do with you at all!"
Chen Mengyun said: "So in your heart, I'm just a cheap woman who throws herself at you, and you're not interested anymore, is that right?"
"Haha!" Lu Chengwen stared at Chen Mengyun and said decisively: "Yes!"
Tears streamed down Chen Mengyun's face. At this moment, she wished she could just turn around and leave.
But the remaining rationality told her that something was not right.
Although Lu Chengwen was a scumbag, very bad, and full of bad ideas, he had never been so fierce and heartless to a girl.
He was always gentle with girls.
He used sweet words and tricks to coax and deceive all the girls.
Even after they broke up, he never said a bad word about her.
Now he was suddenly acting like this, it was intentional.
I need to calm down!
Chen Mengyun's beautiful big eyes were sparkling with tears, but her gaze revealed determination and unyielding spirit.
Even if I die, I have to die knowing the truth!
"You don't hate me, there must be a reason! Because of Long Aotian? Are you so sure that I like Long Aotian?"
"Whoever you like is none of my business..."
"No way!"
Chen Mengyun stretched out a hand and pressed it against the pillar, stopping Lu Chengwen from leaving: "You have to explain it to me clearly today, otherwise I'll just stay at your house and refuse to leave!"
"Sister, please spare me, your family has assets worth hundreds of billions, what kind of man can't you get? If it doesn't work out, I'll get you two male models to play with, I guarantee their bodies and looks are top-notch!"
Chen Mengyun yelled: "Lu Chengwen! You're not human! You can't humiliate people like that! Explain yourself! You have to explain yourself today!"
While they were arguing outside, inside the leisure area, Leng Qingqiu and Xu Xuejiao stared at each other with wide eyes.
Xu Xuejiao grinned and whispered: "So ruthless!"
Leng Qingqiu sighed: "Just talk to her nicely, why hurt her like this?"
Xu Xuejiao said: "Their relationship is very deep. I've always felt that Sister Mengyun hasn't been able to let go of Brother Chengwen all these years. It seems my judgment was correct. If he's not resolute and decisive, it's probably difficult to sever this relationship. Brother Chengwen is doing the right thing."
The corners of Leng Qingqiu's mouth twitched, but she didn't say anything.
She suddenly felt very scared, afraid that Lu Chengwen would be as heartless and cruel to her as he was to Chen Mengyun. If that were the case, she definitely wouldn't be able to bear it.
She was too proud. Since childhood, she had been like the moon in the sky, surrounded by stars, and absolutely could not tolerate a man humiliating her like this.
Chen Mengyun felt something was off.
Everything and everyone felt wrong!
The panicked way Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu looked as if they wanted to escape as soon as possible.
Lu Chengwen's cold and indifferent tone towards her...
And his anxious and uneasy demeanor, Chen Mengyun's heart was alerted: "Is there someone inside?"
"Ah? No."
As soon as Lu Chengwen said "no," Chen Mengyun concluded that it was a "yes."
She turned around and walked inside with her head held high, thinking to herself: I'll just see who is inside.
Lu Chengwen chased after her: "Hey, there isn't anyone, don't just barge into people's houses, do you have any manners..."
"Your house is like an open field to me, I always just walk straight in whenever I come."
Chen Mengyun walked to the leisure area inside and saw two women, two familiar women.
Xu Xuejiao and Leng Qingqiu were both embarrassed and slowly stood up.
Xu Xuejiao forced a smile: "Sister Mengyun."
Chen Mengyun widened her eyes: "Xuejiao? Leng Qingqiu? Why... why are you here?"
Leng Qingqiu sighed: "We have the same purpose."
Lu Chengwen slapped his forehead, thinking to himself, "You don't know how to talk."
Chen Mengyun turned around and looked at Lu Chengwen: "Who... who do you actually like?"
Lu Chengwen said: "Sisters, I'm really tired."
"I worked so hard to defeat Long Aotian's ambitions and temporarily protect the family business. You don't know what I've sacrificed, how difficult it has been!"
"The stock price of my pharmaceutical factory has been falling, many medicines have started to sell poorly, and the reputation of the factory has suffered a huge blow."
"My shantytown project is still short of over 10 billion in cash, and I've had to go around begging for funds these past few days."
"I've also offended the organization behind Long Aotian, and who knows when they'll send a bunch of people to try and cause trouble for me..."
"Sisters, I don't have the time to mess around with you, please go home. I won't let you lose money on the shantytown project, even if I have to sell everything I own. At worst, I'll sell all my shares in Da Sheng Group, compensate for your losses, and take my parents back to the countryside to farm."
"I'm really confused about what's going on with you guys. I'm not that likable, am I? With your status, it's not like you absolutely need me, right? What is this all about?"
Xu Xuejiao looked at Lu Chengwen's appearance and said with some heartache: "Hey, take it slow with the pharmaceutical factory. It's not the first time we've experienced stock price fluctuations. We're in business, so we either win or lose."
"Exactly." Chen Mengyun also noticed that Lu Chengwen seemed to be collapsing: "Try to break even on the shantytown project if possible, and it's not unacceptable to lose some money if we can't. Anyway, we're making money on other businesses, so just think of it as contributing to the construction of our hometown!"
Leng Qingqiu stood up and walked over to Lu Chengwen. Her gaze towards him was gentler than ever before:
"You're too anxious. You should relax. I won't pressure you today, we can talk again another day."
Leng Qingqiu finished speaking and left, very decisively.
Lu Chengwen looked at Leng Qingqiu's back and suddenly felt very touched.
Damn, Leng Qingqiu... when she's being understanding and reasonable, she knows how to relieve a man's pressure!
A good woman.
With Chen Mengyun and Xu Xuejiao left, the two of them felt even more awkward. If they were facing off against Leng Qingqiu, they would fight without hesitation!
But their relationship had always been quite good. Although they weren't exactly best friends, they usually interacted quite harmoniously.
Xu Xuejiao bit her lip: "Then I'll go back first too, let's talk another day."
Only Chen Mengyun remained. She lowered her head: "Since you hate me so much, I'll leave too."
Once he was sure the three girls had left, Lu Chengwen comfortably lay down on the sofa and laughed.
[Fighting with me!? You guys are still too young!]
At that moment, his phone rang. He picked it up and heard:
"Chengwen! Help me! I'm surrounded, I sent you the address, I can't hold on much longer, hurry up! Bring more people, there are a lot of them!"
Fatty Chen!?
Lu Chengwen felt extremely frustrated, got up, grabbed his suit, and rushed out.
