A female character in a book, regaining her luck

Only the father and son were left in the living room.

The atmosphere in the spacious hall was extremely heavy. A tense atmosphere permeated the entire hall, as if time had stood still.

The father and son were silent, as if they were engaged in an ambiguous contest.

Lu Huanchu was the first to break the silence.

"I have something to ask you."

Before Lu Huanchu could finish his words, Lu Fengshi said, "It just so happens that I have something to ask as well."

Lu Fengshi had a blank expression on his face while speaking, but one could see a hint of smile in his eyes.

as always...

Lu Huanchu snorted and laughed.

His father was always like this.

In the Lu family, unless he takes the initiative to talk to you about something, he will interrupt you when you open your mouth, just like he is doing now.

Without any particular purpose, he simply enjoyed making people shut up in order to demonstrate his authority.

What he did made it hard to believe that he was once a doctor who sat in the clinic and patiently listened to patients talk about their illnesses.

Lu Huanchu was already used to such situations. He did not resist, but simply said calmly, "Please speak."

Even though Lu Fengshi knew that Lu Huanchu was just too lazy to argue with him, he still felt very happy about his son's false obedience.

"You are not young anymore. You have just started your career. It is time for you to have a good wife to help you. In the field you are about to work in, marriage can help you shape and maintain a good image. And if you want to maintain certain relationships, a woman is obviously the best choice. You should understand, right?"

Lu Fengshi's words seemed gentle, but his tone was clearly like he was giving an order that had to be followed.

He looked at Lu Huanchu with a sharp gaze. He expected that Lu Huanchu would accept his suggestion respectfully.

"Understand."

Lu Huanchu's answer was concise and to the point. Although it did not reach the perfect expression of Lu Fengshi's inner thoughts, it was barely acceptable.

"Excuse me, have you finished what you are saying?" Lu Huanchu asked.

When Lu Fengshi heard this, his expression changed immediately.

He thought Lu Huanchu had listened to him, but this question clearly showed that he did not take his words to heart.

"I have already selected the candidate for you. All subsequent matters will be handed over to a professional company for preparation. Now you just need to concentrate on your work."

Lu Fengshi's words seemed to be telling Lu Huanchu that as long as he attended the wedding ceremony as the groom on the wedding day, everything would be fine.

As for who the candidate is and whether he is willing to wait, it doesn’t matter.

Lu Huanchu suddenly laughed.

Lu Fengshi frowned even more tightly and said coldly: "Disrespectful!"

Lu Huanchu sighed, put away the smile on his face, and asked in a serious tone:

"Excuse me, dear father, do I have the right to know who my future wife will be?"

Dear Father...

Humph! What an ironic name!

Although Lu Fengshi was very angry about his son's sarcasm, he was also proud of his son's well-behaved behavior and was able to get angry but did not dare to.

"Don't worry, the good wife I chose for you is excellent in every aspect and is definitely worthy of you."

This is not worthy of him, but worthy of the Lu family!

However, Lu Huanchu did not express any dissatisfaction and patiently listened to the old man finish his words.

"You are not strangers to her. You have been classmates for several years and have a close relationship. You should know who she is without me having to explain it to you!"

Lu Fengshi sometimes realized that he did not consider the feelings of the younger generations too much.

So this time when considering his son's marriage, he believed that he had fully considered his son's personal wishes.

"Tang Lan?" Lu Huanchu said with a smile this name which he thought was extremely ridiculous.

Lu Fengshi nodded with great satisfaction. Lu Huanchu found it extremely ridiculous, and his face was full of helplessness about this ridiculous arranged marriage.

"Excuse me, this is just your wishful thinking."

Lu Fengshi did not hear any resistance or dissatisfaction in his son's tone.

Maybe it’s not that I didn’t notice it, but that I just didn’t care.

He subconsciously thought that he had already made so many considerations for his son, so what right did he have to be dissatisfied!

"I talked to Kang Shu some time ago, and he said Tang Lan had no objection. Tang Lan's family also hoped that their daughter could get married, and they had no objection either."

The Kangshu mentioned by the old man is Tang Lan’s teacher Sun Kangshu, who is a close friend of his teacher Ye Chengci. Both of them are influential medical masters in the medical field.

Tang Lan's family background is pretty good, but if she were just an ordinary medical practitioner, let alone his classmate, even his lover would definitely not be in his eyes.

The reason why he chose Tang Lan as his fiancée was simply because he valued her as a student that Teacher Sun Kangshu valued very much.

Sun Kangshu's students are all over the world, spread across various medical institutions across the country. As a student of Sun Kangshu, Tang Lan will have his own resources for his future life.

The Lu family itself is a hot resource in the medical field and does not need too much reliance.

However, if the Lu family's status is to be passed on unshakably, then the establishment and maintenance of resources for future generations must be considered.

So what his father was interested in was not Tang Lan as a person, but Teacher Sun Kangshu and his medical status.

Perhaps there are some trivial reasons, such as Tang Lan’s gentle and lovely personality.

Gentleness and obedience were his father's favorite qualities.

"You have an emotional foundation and will become a model couple in the future. This will be beneficial to your career development. Just focus on preparing to be a groom!" A rare fatherly look appeared on Lu Fengshi's face.

Lu Huanchu thought that Sun Kangshu recommended Tang Lan to assist him just for work, but he didn't expect that there was another meaning.

Tang Lan knew all about this, but she didn't reveal a word and just followed him.

All his feelings for Tang Lan were just that of a classmate.

He had made his feelings for Tang Lan clear and explicit many years ago.

He didn't understand why Tang Lan insisted on doing it even though he knew it was wrong!

Lu Huanchu didn't know whether Tang Lan was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid...

Once this arranged marriage becomes public, will Tang Lan be the one who gets hurt the most? Or will it be him?

neither!

But it was Mu Chaosheng, whom he had promised to marry.

He didn't want to hurt Tang Lan, but he wouldn't allow anyone to hurt Mu Chaosheng!

"I understand." Lu Huanchu looked frank and calm, "Since you have finished speaking, it is my turn to speak."

Lu Fengshi thought his son had accepted his arrangement unconditionally and was in a good mood, so he nodded and signaled that he could speak.

"We are indeed father and son, and we understand each other. What I intend to tell you today is also about my own marriage."

When Lu Fengshi heard this, a trace of doubt flashed across his face, but he rarely interrupted Lu Huanchu, because at this time he just thought that Lu Huanchu had his own opinions on the marriage he arranged.

He thought that it was a major event in his life after all, so it was reasonable for him to give his opinion.

"I'm getting married. The only difference is that my wife isn't the Tang Lan you picked."

Lu Fengshi's expression suddenly became serious, his face flushed, and his eyes widened.

He just thought he was giving some advice, but he didn't expect it to be disobedient!

He was about to speak, but this time was different from before. Lu Huanchu spoke forcefully and did not give him a chance to interrupt.

"I know who you want to ask. I want to give her a legitimate wedding, so I won't hide anything."

Then Lu Huanchu smiled.

"You are not strangers to her. You can even say that you have a half-father-daughter relationship. You once had a very close relationship. You should know who she is without me having to explain it clearly!"

Lu Huanchu's tone and expression were exactly the same as the expression on his face when Lu Fengshi made it clear that his fiancée was Tang Lan. It was hard to say that he didn't mean it.

After Lu Fengshi heard this, the name "Mu Chaosheng" popped into his mind.

The Lu and Mu families have a close relationship, and he and Mu Chaosheng's father are good friends.

When Mu Chao was a child, he held her in his arms, and the girl would stick to him and call him uncle.

At that time, this girl was well-behaved and sensible, and was his ideal daughter. He and his best friend once joked about adopting Mu Chaosheng as their adopted daughter.

But later, the things this girl did became more and more absurd. If she was really born in the Lu family, he guaranteed that when she did her first absurd thing, she would never have the right to step out of the Lu family's door again!

Recently he heard that this girl entered the entertainment industry.

In Lu Fengshi's eyes, the entertainment industry is not even as good as a garbage dump!

In Lu Huanchu's eyes, Mu Chaosheng's identity at this moment can no longer be called a dignified person. He can only be barely called a "living person".

This "living person" has a purely literal meaning and does not have any non-physiological derivatives.

Even if she is the granddaughter of Old Lady Lu, she can never enter the Lu family's gate!

"You can only have one wife, and that's Tang Lan!"

Lu Fengshi's eyes were firm and sharp, as if they could penetrate all obstacles and resistance; his voice was low and powerful, full of unquestionable authority.

His eyebrows were slightly raised, his lips were tightly closed, and his slightly contemptuous look revealed absolute confidence, as if he was ready to make sharp remarks at any time.

With Lu Fengshi, there is no room for compromise. His decision is an order and must be executed unconditionally!

Lu Huanchu stood up. His tone was not as strong and firm as Lu Fengshi's. He just said calmly, "I can only have one wife, and that is Ah Chao."

This was not to oppose his father's sudden decision. Lu Huanchu made a special trip back home today just to talk about this matter.

Lu Fengshi understood his son. The calmer he was, the more determined he was.

But in the Lu family, in front of him, this determination was so insignificant that it was not worth mentioning.

"According to the plan, your marriage will be announced in two days. You should be prepared."

Lu Fengshi got angry when he saw Lu Huanchu, but he was too lazy to argue with him because the final result would be the same anyway.

"I advise you not to make this public."

"Are you scared?" Lu Fengshi thought he saw the cowardice in his son's heart.

Lu Huanchu sneered. His father always looked like a winner who was sure of victory.

"You think you are protecting my face, but no, I am protecting your face!"

Lu Fengshi disagreed.

Lu Huanchu was his son, and he knew his weaknesses. As long as he gave him the slightest pinch, his son would be defeated.

The fish died and the net was broken?

Humph, he simply doesn't have the ability or the opportunity!

No one can threaten his - Lu Fengshi's face, so naturally he doesn't need anyone to protect it. No one is qualified or capable!

Just as no one knows a son better than his father, no one knows a father better than his son.

Lu Huanchu knew what the old man was thinking.

"If you don't want to lose face and ruin your reputation, you'd better do as I say."

"Lu Huanchu, stop right there!"

After Lu Huanchu finished speaking, he turned around and left. Even though Lu Fengshi yelled at him at the top of his lungs, he did not hesitate for a second.

The only sound in the empty reception room was Lu Fengshi's heavy breathing.

He gripped the handles tightly with both hands, slumped in the chair, with an expression of incredulity on his face.

As long as he is still his son and a member of the Lu family, his weaknesses will definitely be there, and he will never be able to disobey him!

Only by thinking this way did Lu Fengshi feel a little relieved.

Everything seems to be the same as before.

But there is still a slight difference.

Just like now, Lu Fengshi’s firm belief in making the marriage news public was slightly shaken.

Lu Huanchu knew that a domineering and tyrannical person hated it most when others challenged his authority, and this was also what he feared the most.

Wherever there is fear, there is weakness.

Lu Huanchu took the luggage from Uncle Fang and walked to the vermilion gate, then looked up at the blue sky and white clouds.

In fact, having weaknesses is a good thing!
