Lu Hui was stunned for a moment, his expression darkening, "What do you mean by that? Are you cursing my brother, cursing the Lu family?"
"I'm just stating a fact!" Lu Pan, facing Lu Hui's displeased look, ushered him out, "Please go."
"Wait!"
Lu Hui quickly blocked the door with his hand, then suddenly smiled, "If I remember correctly, the place where you're staying now, this villa compound, has already been bought by our Lu family."
Lu Pan raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean by that?"
"It means nothing." Lu Hui said with a smug grin, "If you don't come with me, I'll have all these houses torn down. Then, I'll see where you live."
"Are you threatening me?" Lu Pan narrowed his eyes, finding Lu Hui to be a truly reckless fool.
"If you come with me, then it's not a threat." Lu Hui appeared confident.
In his eyes, Lu Pan was not a significant figure at all. Yuan Pu must have been deceived! He intended to expose Lu Pan's disguise in front of Yuan Pu and Lu Yuansen.
"I can go with you, but it has to be in the afternoon. Give me the address!" Mo Ziyan had not yet woken up, and Lu Pan could not leave for the moment.
Lu Hui showed a smug expression, thinking Lu Pan wasn't so great after all, easily intimidated by his words.
"Lu Family Private Hospital. I'll wait for you there this afternoon. If you don't show up, don't blame me..." With a warning glance at Lu Pan, Lu Hui left with his underlings.
Lu Pan's smile froze, his eyes filled with coldness, "I didn't look for your Lu family, but you've come to my doorstep first. Since that's the case, let's have some fun in advance!"
In the car.
"Second Young Master, wasn't what we just did a bit excessive?" one of Lu Hui's subordinates asked nervously.
"Excessive? You saw him yourself, he's only two or three years older than me. How can he be a big shot?" Lu Hui dismissed it. "If he's a big shot, then I, Second Young Master, am the king of Qingcheng!"
The subordinate chuckled, daring not to contradict him.
Lu Hui returned to the hospital around noon. Lu Yuansen had lunch and came to visit Lu Hao. He had an important meeting to attend in the afternoon.
"Dad, I have some good news to tell you." Lu Hui appeared eager for praise. He had already imagined Lu Yuansen commending him, for in his heart, his elder brother was a hundred times more outstanding than himself.
Lu Yuansen said impatiently, "It would be good enough if you didn't cause me trouble. What good news could there be!"
"Sect Master Yuan, please examine Xiao Hao's body again. I'll visit that distinguished guest tomorrow." Lu Yuansen clearly didn't want to hear Lu Hui ramble and spoke politely to Yuan Pu.
Yuan Pu nodded and stepped forward to examine Lu Hao.
"Dad, the distinguished guest I'm talking about, I've already invited him! He's arriving this afternoon!" Lu Hui said with some dissatisfaction.
"What?" Lu Yuansen was stunned, thinking he misheard.
"I said I've invited that distinguished guest, and he's arriving this afternoon," Lu Hui said proudly.
Thinking of his younger son's character, Lu Yuansen shivered and asked anxiously, "You've invited him? How did you invite him? Tell me every detail!"
Seeing Lu Yuansen's grim expression, Lu Hui trembled and recounted everything about his trip to Zifeng Villa with his subordinates.
*Slap!!*
After hearing Lu Hui's words, Lu Yuansen was so enraged he slapped him, scolding him with bitter disappointment, "You disgrace! You absolute disgrace! I should have smashed you against the wall back then!!"
Lu Yuansen's slap stunned Lu Hui. Recovering his senses, he said indignantly, "Dad, that so-called distinguished guest is a swindler. He looks no older than me. You and Sect Master Yuan have both been tricked by him!" Lu Hui was convinced Lu Pan was a fraud.
"He's arriving this afternoon. I'll expose him then!"
Upon hearing that Lu Pan was not much older than Lu Hui, Lu Yuansen calmed down slightly and looked at Yuan Pu.
"Sect Master Yuan, the age of that distinguished guest..." Doubt had clearly begun to creep into Lu Yuansen's mind.
Yuan Pu's expression was extremely grim. He hadn't expected Lu Hui to be so rash in visiting Zifeng Villa and exposing him. He couldn't even imagine how he would face Lu Pan's wrath.
"Sect Master Yuan..." Lu Yuansen, seeing Yuan Pu's troubled look and lack of response, called out again.
Yuan Pu gave Lu Hui a cold glance and no longer showed courtesy to Lu Yuansen, "Mr. Lu, that distinguished guest is only a few years older than Second Young Master Lu, so what?"
"Mr. Lu, don't forget, some people are born in the heavens from the very beginning!!" With that, Yuan Pu stood up and walked out, intending to beg for forgiveness.
"From now on, Yuan Pu and the Lu family have no further relations. Farewell!" Lu Yuansen was utterly shocked by Yuan Pu's reaction and quickly chased after him, "Sect Master Yuan, Sect Master Yuan... it's all a misunderstanding!"
Yuan Pu, at the doorway, paused and replied coldly, "A misunderstanding? If that adult merely stamps his foot, Qingcheng will drown in blood... You call this a misunderstanding?!"
"I advise Mr. Lu to quickly find a way to remedy this, otherwise – when that adult personally visits, it will be the end of the Lu family!" With that, Yuan Pu left without looking back.
Lu Yuansen stood there, dumbfounded. Lu Hui was also a bit stunned, but still harbored some doubt about Yuan Pu's words.
"Dad... Sect Master Yuan is exaggerating too much, isn't he? Maybe he's in on it with that person, setting up a trap..."
"Silence!" Lu Yuansen's face was dark. He knew Yuan Pu's status very well and was certain he wasn't a swindler, nor would he speak without reason! Lu Hui obediently shut his mouth and said no more.
Lu Yuansen calmed down, his expression fluctuating. After a moment, he told his secretary, "Announce that the afternoon meeting is canceled!"
"Accompany me to visit and beg forgiveness from that distinguished guest!" Lu Yuansen looked at Lu Hui, hoping only to appease the adult's anger. Lu Hui dared not resist, but inwardly resented Lu Pan. Lu Yuansen knew what his younger son was thinking and warned him, "Lu Hui, you'd better pray that great figure forgives you, otherwise... I don't mind having another one!"
Lu Hui finally showed fear. Because he knew how ruthless his father could be!
An hour later. Lu Yuansen, with Lu Hui, personally arrived at Zifeng Villa.
"Sir, Lu has brought his son, Lu Hui, to beg for forgiveness."
"My son has offended you, and deserves death. Whatever punishment you deem fit, we will accept!" Lu Yuansen stepped forward and knocked on the door, his tone sincere, hoping only that Lu Pan would forgive Lu Hui and spare the Lu family from repercussions.
"Since he deserves death, then kill him!" Lu Pan's indifferent and calm voice came from inside.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuansen outside froze. Lu Hui shivered with fear. His voice trembling, he said, "Dad... don't listen to his nonsense..."
