When Lu Ning appeared, Liu Jie's expression became somewhat awkward.

Liu Jie didn't want her to know about his family affairs at all, as it would be very embarrassing.

The old lady looked at Lu Ning and asked, "Who are you?"

Liu Qi spoke directly: "Grandma, she's the one who stole my spot for a permanent position. She's also the one who, because of her good relationship with the manager, has been accusing me of cheating."

After hearing this, the old lady immediately got up from the ground: "It was you! You stole my grandson's name! You shameless woman! You took advantage of your looks to sleep with people and stole my grandson's spot!"

Lu Ning looked over coldly: "Speaking nonsense can lead to legal consequences."

The old woman remained completely unfazed: "You dare to do it, but you don't dare let people tell?"

Chen Yu walked over, took out her phone and started live streaming: "Grandma, do you dare to say it again in front of the video? I think the audience's eyes are discerning."

When Liu Qi saw the live broadcast, his expression immediately changed.

Liu Qi said with a wronged expression, "Grandma, let's just leave. The manager is always on their side and won't pay any attention to vulnerable groups like us."

The old lady slapped her thigh and exclaimed, "My grandson is so talented, yet he was kicked out by the team's underhanded tactics!"

Liu Qi's mother held Liu Jie's hand and said, "You child, if we hadn't raised you back then, you would be begging on some street corner by now."

The old lady chimed in, "Yes, if it weren't for me, you would have died long ago. Now I order you to give your spot in the team to Xiao Qi."

"Yeah, Xiao Jie, you're pretty good anyway, so let's give the spot to your younger brother this time. You can just take the test again later, right?"

Liu Jie looked utterly desperate and helpless: "Grandma, Auntie, it's not a matter of whether I allow it or not. The manager won't agree, and my opinion doesn't count."

"Why can't you have the final say? Then just leave the team and give up your spot."

Lu Ning burst out laughing: "Give up? You guys are really shameless. Liu Qi was kicked out of the team for cheating, and the team was already merciful by kicking him out instead of pursuing legal action."

Furthermore, Liu Qi's skill level is so poor that he wouldn't pass the team's selection process at all. Even without Liu Jie, he wouldn't have been able to stay.

The old lady looked at Liu Jie: "Is what she said true?"

"That's right, it's true. Even if I leave the team, he can't go back."

Liu Qi stepped forward: "Grandma, I just envy him for being able to stay in such a powerful team. Oh well, this is all I can do in my life."

The old lady felt sorry for him and then looked at Liu Jie and said, "You should quit the team right away. Playing games is not like a proper job. Hurry up and go out to work to earn money for the family."

Liu Jie looked at the old lady in shock: "Grandma, this is my dream, I can't give it up."

The old woman cried out, "I raised you with so much hardship!"

Liu Jie said, "But all the money I've earned over the years has been sent back home. I also helped you buy a new house and renovate the place. These are all my contributions. I've already paid back what I owed you."

Lu Ning raised an eyebrow: "So your whole family are vampires, how shameless."

Chen Yu continued, "You've always relied on others for your livelihood, and now, for the sake of your grandson, you're actually asking your outstanding grandson to quit the team? Have you no shame?"

Lu Ning sneered: "Isn't that right? The reason you can live a good life is because of Liu Jie's income in the team."

I've seen ungrateful people before, but I've never seen anyone this ungrateful.

The old lady and Liu Qi's expressions immediately turned ugly.

Lu Ning looked at Liu Qi: "A piece of trash like you can only be a rat in the sewers forever, always jealous of Liu Jie's excellence and trying to suppress him. It's a pity you can't do it. Liu Jie will be better than you for life."

Liu Qi immediately became furious and embarrassed: "You're talking nonsense. He's not nearly as good as me. He was just my foil when we were kids."

Lu Ning chuckled: "Look at you, you're so easily fazed."

Chen Yu continued, "Yes, I've heard Zhao Gao say that he brought that guy's cousin along to train Liu Jie. Tsk tsk, you're the one who's just there to make up the numbers. Manager Zhao knew from the beginning that Liu Jie was better than you."

Upon hearing this, Liu Qi's face turned pale and then purple: "I don't believe it."

"You have no choice but to believe it."

At this moment, Zhao Gao stepped forward and looked at Liu Qi: "I did have my eye on Liu Jie back then; you were just a foil. If he doesn't pass the assessment this time, you won't be able to become a formal team member either."

"impossible!"

Liu Qi didn't believe it.

The old lady walked straight up to Zhao Gao: "You're the manager, right? My grandson is very capable. We agreed to have both of them. Now that you've kicked my grandson out, Liu Jie can't stay in the team either."

Lu Ning raised an eyebrow: "Liu Jie is an adult, and you can't control him anymore."

Chen Yu continued, "Based on the money he has given you over the years, if you file a lawsuit, you will have to return the house and the car."

The old woman exclaimed, "Impossible! This money was a gift from my grandson!"

Lu Ning looked at Liu Jie and said, "Don't worry, I know a very capable lawyer who can get all this money back for you."

Zhao Gao looked at Liu Qi and said, "Since you don't know what's good for you, then I'll have my lawyer sue you for cheating. You'll only be able to wake up in jail then."

Lu Ning looked at Liu Qi and said, "Tsk tsk, once you go to jail, your whole life will be ruined."

The old lady slapped her thigh and said, "My grandson can't go to jail, or I won't live anymore."

Lu Ning sneered: "Then go die."

The old lady looked at Liu Jie and said, "Aren't you going to say something?"

Lu Ning looked at Liu Jie: "Don't be soft-hearted. You've always known how your family treats you. Some family members are family, and some don't deserve to be family. You've already done enough. From now on, you have to live for yourself."

Liu Jie was somewhat moved after hearing these words.

Chen Yu, standing to the side, looked at the woman beside him and for a moment thought he saw Lu Ning speaking.

Lu Ning was treated with favoritism by the Lu family in the past as well.

The old lady wanted to make a scene, but Liu Qi grabbed her: "Grandma, I don't want to go to jail, let's go back."

"Are we just going to let it go like this?"

Liu Qi: "Anyway, I'm leaving first. Do whatever you want."

He didn't want to go to jail; he knew this manager meant what he said.

After Liu Qi left, the old lady pointed at Liu Jie's nose and cursed, "You ungrateful little bastard, you're leaving the team today! I won't allow you to stay. What makes you so outstanding that you surpass your brother?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Jie slowly closed his hand: "Because I'm inherently better than him!"

Such relatives are better off without.
