Rebirth: A Super Foodie and Her Cat Demon Husband
Chapter 15 The final struggle
Ji Chuyun sighed deeply on the phone, and his voice became cold when he spoke again: "Since you can see that Yuanyuan doesn't want to return to the Lu family, then why do you still have such strong hostility towards her? Why do you deliberately harm her and even send people around you to hurt her.
Is it because you're afraid she'll steal our love from you? But over a decade has passed. Isn't that enough to prove we've treated you better than Yuanyuan? Why are you still pushing her to death?
Don't tell me you didn't mean it, that you just wanted to shift the blame temporarily, or that you didn't know she had depression. I don't believe that now."
When Lu Meichen heard Ji Chuyun's voice and questions, her legs weakened and she sat down on the bed in the hotel.
But before he could reply, Ji Chuyun on the phone spoke again: "You don't have to give me an answer. In fact, I already know from what you said just now. You are just afraid of losing your good life and the money that belongs to you.
But I am a little surprised. In our Lu family, your father and I have never valued money so much.
Furthermore, your eldest and second brothers are both self-employed and have their own business empires. Therefore, they are well-positioned to become shareholders of the Lu Family Group.
Even though your third brother was constantly teased by your father and me, he was still our child after all, and he still had some talent. That's why he started from the bottom of the Lu family, and he climbed up to his current position through his own abilities.
"For you, Lujia Group and Jijia Company have given you all the shares and money you deserve. Why do you feel like we're going to deprive you of everything?" Ji Chuyun asked, somewhat puzzled.
This time, Ji Chuyun gave Lu Meichen time to think and answer. And this time, Lu Meichen did not remain silent for too long, and said, "Because someone told me that although you love me, I am a girl after all, and our Lu family has always favored boys over girls.
In the end, the daughter of the Lu family will get nothing. If she marries well, she may get a generous dowry, but if she doesn't marry well and has no chance of getting a place in the Lu family company, then she will be nothing in the future."
Ji Chuyun, who was on the other end of the phone, frowned after hearing Lu Meichen's words. She didn't understand who would say that to Lu Meichen. But she was sure that these words had a profound impact on Lu Meichen.
But Lu Yuanyuan knew clearly in her heart, she knew who these words came from, because that person had told her these words before, and even said more than these.
Because that person felt that he could definitely empathize with her.
Perhaps Lu Meichen had never taken these words to heart before. However, her return made her feel a sense of crisis, and she subconsciously began to think about these issues.
That's why it had a profound impact on Lu Meichen, the once high-ranking young lady. But for her, a young girl from an ordinary family with no financial resources, it didn't have much of an impact.
Moreover, she has seen many families that favor boys over girls in daily life. After all, ordinary families that do not have a throne to inherit will favor boys over girls and want a son very much.
Besides, for a group like the Lu Corporation, where money and power are both available, it's not surprising that they favor boys over girls. So, she just ignored this remark and forgot about it.
If Lu Meichen hadn't mentioned it again today, she really wouldn't have remembered it.
But from my own point of view, this statement has long been self-defeating over the years.
But I didn't expect Lu Meichen to be so deeply involved in it, believing it without a doubt. She even did something that forced her to death and hurt the interests of the Lu and Tang families.
But what she found funny was that Lu Meichen only dared to attack herself, but not her three brothers. To put it bluntly, he was just bullying the weak and fearing the strong, thinking that he was easy to deal with.
To put it bluntly, she is just selfish.
However, she felt that perhaps it was precisely because of this that Lu Meichen was more suitable for the Lu family. This was the only way she could carve out a place in the business world. It was a pity that she had chosen the wrong person and cut off her own escape route.
This was probably the short-sightedness that Tang Ziji secretly complained about after meeting Lu Meichen.
While Lu Yuanyuan was daydreaming, she didn't know when Lu Meichen had hung up the phone.
She stared at the phone in her hand in a daze. She had already contacted everyone she could. Those who had once surrounded her and served her well no longer answered her calls. And Ji Chuyun's last hope was shattered.
Lu Meichen tightly grasped her phone, not knowing what to do in the future. Tears streamed down her cheeks. Before she could cry hysterically, there was a rapid knock on the hotel door.
Lu Meichen stared at the hotel door in horror. She sat on the bed, holding her phone, not daring to move.
The person outside the door knocked for a while and saw that Lu Meichen did not respond. He cursed a few words as if he was impatient, and then started kicking the door hard.
Perhaps because the noise was so loud that it alarmed the waiter on this floor, I heard a low conversation coming from outside the door, and then I heard the door being kicked open from the outside.
There were a lot of people standing outside the door. Aside from the one at the head who looked a bit menacing, the others behind him seemed more refined and polite. They looked like the type who often sat in an office for long periods of time.
This combination surprised Lu Yuanyuan a little.
The first person who rushed in, who looked a bit ferocious, said, "Lu Meichen, when are you going to pay us back the money you owe us? Do you think we can't find you if you hide in this shabby hotel?"
This person should be the one who kicked the door just now.
The people behind him echoed, and Lu Yuanyuan immediately understood that Lu Meichen was being held captive in the hotel because of unpaid wages.
Lu Meichen also looked at them with red eyes and said, "I was also cheated. It's no use for you to come to me now. I don't have a penny left. All my cards are frozen now. Even if you come to me or sue me now, I can't give you the money. It's like asking for money now, not your life."
When the leading man heard this, he sneered and said, "Hey, little girl, you should have known what I do before you hired me. You're trying to act tough in front of me. I'm telling you, you'd better get the money together tomorrow, otherwise you'll bear the consequences."
After saying that, he shouted twice towards the door. Two tattooed men walked in and stood at the door without moving.
The man who kicked the door walked away with other employees in a swagger.
After everyone left, Lu Meichen looked at the two people guarding the door and said in a gentle voice, "You don't have to stay here to watch over me. Where else can I go except here? You know this is the cheapest hotel in North Beach. I can only stay here with the money I have left. I want to rest, you can leave first."
The two looked at Lu Meichen with a wicked smile, shook their heads and said, "Little girl, we dare not disobey our boss's wishes. After all, we still have to make a living in this business in the future.
But if you can make us two brothers happy, maybe we can even say a few good words for you in front of the boss. How about we treat it as a way to get used to the work process in advance?"
As he spoke, the guy walked towards Lu Meichen with a smirk on his face. Lu Meichen stood up with a pale face and backed towards the window.
