Lu Ning held the portrait, staring at Bai Lianhua with a half-smile.

Qin Xiang wasn't sure what Lu Ning meant either, so she could only give a vague answer: "It does look somewhat similar to me, but not completely. After all, this isn't a photograph; it's a drawing. Who can guarantee it's exactly the same?"

Qin Xiang had already prepared her explanation.

Anyway, who can guarantee that the drawing will be exactly the same?

Lu Ning knew that the white lotus would make excuses, so she threw the painting back directly: "Since it doesn't look quite right, then change it, keep changing it until it looks more like it!"

She wouldn't give the innocent-looking girl a chance to escape.

Qin Xiang was covered in dust and dirt from the blows, and she was furious. She looked at Lu Wu with teary eyes and said, "Fifth Brother, I'm not comfortable sitting here. Can I rest for a while?"

Lu Wu hesitated for a moment: "Then let's rest for a while, there's no rush."

After hearing this, Qin Xiang stood up with a smile, intending to slack off and slip away.

But Lu Dongyou coldly replied, "No."

Qin Xiang was stunned, but didn't say anything. She just looked at Lu Wu pitifully.

Qin Xiang now knows that because her father is still alive, the Lu family hates her to the core, and the only person she can rely on right now is Lu Wu.

Lu Wu said with some dissatisfaction, "Big brother, look, Xiangxiang isn't feeling well. What's wrong with letting her rest for a while?"

"Fifth brother, are you out of your mind? The most important thing right now is to catch the real culprit who killed Mom and Dad!"

Lu Dongyou pointed at Lu Wu's nose and cursed, "But you're willing to waste time for this woman. Do you still have the face to face your parents?"

Lu Wu was still somewhat dissatisfied: "But Qin Xiang is pregnant, so we can't let her get tired."

Lu Nanfeng kicked her directly: "It's not like I'm asking Qin Xiang to do anything, just to use her mouth. Is that going to kill her?"

Lu Wu then dared not say anything more.

Lu Nanfeng looked at Qin Xiang and said, "Sit down. You can rest when you finish painting your father's portrait."

"Second brother, but I really feel uncomfortable."

Qin Xiang was determined to feign illness, and even clutched her stomach and fell to the ground, saying, "Fifth Brother, my stomach hurts."

Lu Wu stepped forward and helped Qin Xiang up, saying, "I'll take you to the hospital."

"Stop right there! If you dare to leave even half a step today, don't ever come back."

Lu Dongyou was so angry that his face turned pale. The most important thing now was to find out the truth about the car accident back then, and it would be best to get some leverage over the Mo family. Only in this way could he vent his anger.

But Lu Wu actually let Qin Xiang pretend to be sick, so how could he possibly agree to that?

Lu Wu said angrily, "Big brother, you've completely changed. Do you really believe what Lu Ning says?"

"If I don't believe what she says, why should I believe what you all say?"

Lu Dongyou wasn't stupid; he knew that Lu Ning would never lie about her parents' car accident.

Lu Dongyou stared at Qin Xiang: "If I find out you're lying, I will definitely not let you off the hook."

Qin Xiang was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on her back.

Lu Nanfeng then said to Qin Xiang, "I believe you've always stood on the Lu family's side, right? The Lu family has treated you well over the years; you have everything Ningning has."

"Second brother, of course I know that the Lu family has always been very good to me. In fact, I also consider the Lu family as my own home."

"That's good. If you're not feeling well, go to the hospital. I'll also have the artist go with you. While you're resting, just tell the artist what parts of the drawing aren't realistic enough and have him fix them."

Lu Nanfeng's words were clear: even if they went to the hospital, they would continue.

Lu Nanfeng's tone became somewhat threatening as he said this: "But if you refuse to cooperate, then I can only assume that you and your father are of one mind. At that point, the child in your womb will absolutely not be allowed to stay. I will not allow the Lu family to have such a hidden danger!"

"Brother, what are you saying? This is my only child!"

Lu Wu was shocked; she never expected her second brother to say he didn't want children.

Lu Nanfeng said with a stern face: "Fifth brother, your eldest brother has always spoiled you and indulged your behavior, but when it comes to the murderer of your parents, there is no room for negotiation."

Lu Wu immediately retorted, "Xiangxiang won't side with her father."

Only a fool would abandon the Lu family's status and wealth to follow a murderer as his father.

Qin Xiang wouldn't be that stupid.

Qin Xiang quickly swore, "Second Brother, I will definitely cooperate."

"So, are you still going to the hospital now?"

Lu Nanfeng wasn't unaware that Qin Xiang was lying.

Qin Xiang quickly shook her head: "My stomach is fine now, so I can continue to work with the artist."

Qin Xiang probed the Lu family's attitude and found that they were all in agreement on this matter, even that idiot Lu Wu.

Qin Xiang dared not continue to probe and could only obediently do as she was told.

Seeing that Bai Lianhua had shrank back again, Lu Ning sneered, "I need to see results after dinner. After all, we can't afford to waste time."

After Lu Ning finished speaking, she went to the restaurant. At this time, she was hungry and needed to eat something.

Soon, Lu Nanfeng walked over: "Ningning, there are no outsiders here, so just tell me honestly, is Qin Xiang's father in your hands or not?"

Lu Ning looked up and saw that Lu Dongyou had followed her.

She said coldly, "I'll tell you after Qin Xiang finishes drawing the portrait."

She doesn't want to talk about it now.

Lu Dongyou was somewhat annoyed: "You don't trust us?"

Lu Ning asked sarcastically, "What do you have that I can trust?"

Lu Dongyou was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Lu Ning, what happened before was indeed my fault, and I know I made you suffer in the past."

"Oh."

Lu Ning responded with a faint reply upon hearing these words.

Lu Dongyou was immediately furious: "Lu Ning, I've already apologized to you, what more do you want?"

As soon as he said that, Lu Nanfeng stopped Lu Dongyou: "Brother, what are you saying?"

"Did I say something wrong? I've been so humble and apologetic to her, trying to make peace with her, and look at Lu Ning's attitude?"

Lu Dongyou was a very strong-willed person throughout his life. In the Lu family, he always acted like the patriarch and never bowed his head to his younger siblings.

He had bowed his head to Lu Ning so many times, but Lu Ning still didn't give him a friendly look.

Lu Nanfeng couldn't help but sigh: "Brother, what are you saying?"

"Of course I apologized, but I really don't know what she wants from me!"

Lu Dongyou was also seething with anger.

I always thought he was the pillar of the Lu family, but now I find that Lu Ning is becoming more and more capable, and she is even dating the heir of the Ji family.

Now that the Lu family has fallen to this state, the only person they can rely on is Lu Ning.

Lu Dongyou was actually quite resentful and still wanted to outdo Lu Ning.

Lu Ning didn't want to hear any of this, so she put down her chopsticks and left the restaurant.

To be honest, she didn't need the Lu family's condescending apology.

After Lu Ning left, Lu Dongyou completely lost his temper: "Look at Lu Ning's attitude! I've already apologized, but she still won't accept it."

"Brother, is that an apology? Why are you putting on such a high and mighty act?"

"But I'm her older brother, can't she at least give me some face?"

Lu Dongyou was furious. Although he knew he had made a mistake, it wasn't so easy for him to humble himself.

Lu Wu stormed into the restaurant: "Big brother, now you know how cold-hearted Lu Ning is, right? If you ask me, I shouldn't have been so nice to Lu Ning!"

If we teach Lu Ning a lesson, she won't dare to be so arrogant anymore.
