Chapter 24: Apologize

Thinking of this, Yang Lin’s lips moved and when he was about to speak Lu Hua’s voice rang out: “Uncle, please stop fighting!”

Yang Lin’s eyes lit up and he immediately looked at Lu Hua. He was worried that he couldn’t get off the stage. Lu Hua, the victim, took the initiative to send him a ladder. His angry flushed face immediately changed. Full of guilt, he said to Lu Hua, “Lu Hua, we are really sorry. Lu Lu is as old as you, but is far less sensible and worry-free than you. Her mother and I have also scolded her about this matter, and beat her at home. We brought her over here to apologize without even letting her eat. Please forgive her this time.”

When Yang Lin opened his mouth, he put the two top hats of “sensible” and “worry-free” on Lu Hua’s head.  In general, the young girl was so confused and disoriented that she didn’t know what to say.

Lu Hua had just seen how badly Yang Lulu had been beaten. She felt sorry for her, so she opened her mouth. However, as soon as she said that, she felt two cold gazes on her back. She shuddered and immediately regretted it. She didn’t care about the high hat handed over to her by Yang Lin.

Before, she had been grabbed by Lu Zheng. She had even recited her lines for more than ten minutes, but she didn’t expect it to be ruined so quickly. She was a little annoyed. These adults were smart. They had beaten Yang Lulu up right in front of her, this was to stir up the compassion and sympathy of others. She was clearly on guard, but she was deceived right away.

Are you kidding me? Lu Hua thought. If it weren’t for Yang Lulu, she wouldn’t have nearly been sent to the mountains. If it weren’t for Yang Lulu, she wouldn’t have missed the vote for the school flower. If it weren’t for Yang Lulu, she wouldn’t have been lectured by her second brother.

Anyway, it was all Yang Lulu’s fault. Why was she so quick to speak up for her!?

Lu Hua thought about this and felt angry. However, she couldn’t show such dissatisfaction on her face. She still remembered what Lu Zheng said. Lu Hua cleared her throat and said in a clear voice: “Uncle, it’s not that I don’t forgive her. It’s that this time she’s done too much. A full five million, isn’t a small amount of money. To be serious, she dares to cheat five million yuan today. She dares to get angry and kill people tomorrow. Uncle, she should be beaten, not only should you beat, but also she should be hit hard! Uncle Lin, give me a bamboo whip.”

Butler Lin, who was standing next to her, immediately stepped forward and handed her a bamboo whip. Lu Hua took the bamboo whip, squeezed out a smile, and handed it to Yang Lin, “Uncle, you can use this to hit her. “

Yang Lin: “…………”

This butler has been standing by the side, and had never left. Yet he was able to hand over the bamboo whip as soon as it was requested, obviously he was well prepared.     

He had nothing to say. He forced out a smile, nodded and said, “Student Lu Hua is right, as a father, I’m really sad.”

He said that he was in pain and felt ashamed. He swung the bamboo whip and hit Yang Lulu a few times. “It’s all your fault for not learning well! You learned from others how to cheat money! Apologize to Lu Hua quickly!”

Yang Lulu was beaten to tears, she couldn’t even speak coherently anymore. Next to her, Yang Lulu’s cousin Shi Guangfa, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled with fear. He was so scared that he burst into tears. He wasn’t that old either. He was only in the third year of junior high school. He and Yang Lulu were both motivated by money. They didn’t expect to kick this kind of iron plate.

Yang Lin really couldn’t bear to hit his daughter anymore. He could only turn around and grab on to Shi Guangfa’s hair, making the teenaged boy burst into tears with snot streaming out of his nose, which really made him look ugly.

Tired of fighting, Yang Lin panted and laughed bitterly at Lu Hua and Lu Zheng who was behind her, “I’m so ashamed of myself for not being able to teach my daughter well!”

Lu Zheng reluctantly gave him a step down, “As a child, if you’re willing to teach them they can always pull back.”

At this time, he said she was still a child.

However, Yang Lin didn’t have the heart to argue with him. Seeing the steps, he quickly rolled down, “Ah, I’m so ashamed. I really didn’t expect her to do such a thing. How can I face anyone if word gets out?”

Lu Zheng glanced at Lu Hua. Lu Hua’s shoulders trembled and she immediately said, “Uncle, that money…”

“Oh, oh,” Yang Lin said repeatedly, Here it is. Is this the card?”

Lu Hua said: “Yes, that’s the right card.”

Yang Lin handed her the card, “I’m sorry, classmate Lu Hua. Please forgive her this time. She also knows she’s wrong.”

Lu Hua was happy to get the money, but she still remembered Lu Zheng’s words. She lowered her glasses to hide the happiness in her eyes, “Uncle,” she said coquettishly, “I don’t think a beating will make her remember. I have a suggestion.”

Yang Lin: “…”

His expression changed, but Lu Zheng was here and he could only hold back. His lips twitched, “Tell me.”

Lu Hua narrowed her eyes and asked, “How much is her monthly allowance?”

Yang Lin glanced at his wife, Gao Yue, who had been trying not to speak. Gao Yue tried to smile. “Thirty … thirty thousand.”

“Thirty thousand!” Lu Hua pretended to be surprised and said, “That’s a lot. How can she not have enough money to spend? She still has to cheat her classmates out of their money? If she doesn’t learn, who knows what she’ll do next? I suggest you give me all of her spending money for ten years. You teach her how to be diligent and thrifty and solve the problem at its root.”

Gao Yue: “…”

Having said so much, the central theme is still asking for money.

Yang Lin heaved a sigh of relief. He was not short of money. He had originally planned to give Lu Hua a big gift to tie up the loose ends. Now that Lu Hua had taken the initiative to bring it up, although it was a little passive, it was enough for him to let out a sigh of relief that it could end like this, “That’s a very good suggestion, Lu Hua. I think we should do it.”

He pulled out a card from his pocket and said with a smile, “There’s five million here. The password is six zeros. Take it as an apology from uncle. I’m really sorry. My Yang Lulu is too ignorant I hope you won’t argue with her.”

Lu Hua said, “I didn’t intend to argue with her at first. I did it for her own good.”

She said it so righteously that she almost believed it herself.

Yang Lin: “Yes, if you are kind to her, she will remember it in her heart. I hope you can forget the past and still be friends.”

Although he said that, he also knew that it was impossible. Lu Hua just smiled and didn’t speak.

Since they had apologized and made amends, there was no need for Yang Lin to stay and he immediately took Yang Lulu and Shi Guangfa to say goodbye.

Lu Zheng said, “Don’t send them off.”

When he said he wouldn’t send them off, he really didn’t send them. So Butler Lin didn’t go to send them off. They just watched Yang Lin drag the older one and the younger one away from the Lu family.

When Lu Hua got the money, she didn’t have to hold back anymore. She was so happy she could fly. She said proudly, “How did I behave just now? Wasn’t I handsome?”

Lu Zheng held out his hand to her, “Give it to me.”

Lu Hua’s smiling face immediately disappeared, “Give … give you what?”

Lu Zheng raised his chin and stared at her coldly, “Did you forget what I said?”

Lu Hua: “…”

She silently put the card into Lu Zheng’s palm.

Lu Zheng: “There’s more.”

Lu Hua wanted to cry again, “You leave me some.”

Lu Zheng grabbed the other bank card in her hand. “I said I wouldn’t give you another dime. This money will be confiscated. You can take care of yourself later.”

Lu Hua: “…”

Lu Hua shed bitter tears.

What made her even more sad and indignant was that Lu Zheng handed the two cards he got from her to Chang Qing.

Compared to Lu Hua’s misery, Chang Qing was surprised, “What are you giving this to me for?”

Lu Zheng said, “For your pocket money.”

Chang Qing curled his lips and said with a smile, “I also have pocket money?”

Lu Hua cried silently: Also? Where did that come from? He’s the only one in the family with pocket money now!

Lu Zheng raised his chin, glanced at Lu Hua, and said coldly, “I’m the head of the family now.”

Alright, Chang Qing reached out and took it. “Thank you, then.”

After a pause, he looked at him with a smile, “Is this a month’s allowance?”

“…” Lu Zheng smiled insincerely, “You have a big appetite.”

Chang Qing retorted: “I have a big appetite; you have a big stomach.1 We’re quite similar.”

Lu Zheng couldn’t hold back and smiled. “Alright, let’s go and have dinner.” Then, he said, “Yang Lin is so old. He came to apologize at noon and delayed our meal time.”

Although Lu Hua didn’t have any money, she let out a sigh of relief. She was still happy after all. And the tears that were freely released like an impromptu performance were immediately retracted. She then reached out to wipe her tears away. Her almond-shaped eyes were clean and clear with only a little redness. It seemed that they had never cried.

“I’m starving!” Lu Hua said, and sat down at the table first.

Chang Qing was also hungry. Yang Lin did a good job of apologizing, but he didn’t pick the right time, and came over at lunch time.

If Yang Lin knew what Chang Qing was thinking, he would definitely cry foul. The Lu family usually had lunch late after twelve o’clock. It was very common for them to have lunch even later.

And Yang Lin carefully selected the time after lunch – after a full meal, it was easy to be tired and the mood was relaxed. It was easy to gently pick up and gently let go of things.

This is the wisdom of a middle-aged man, but unfortunately it happened to be against the Lu family.

Lu Hua took a small bite to eat, and suddenly thought, “Our family is really good. Yang Lulu was so arrogant at school. She wanted to stare into the sky. As a result, she was kneeling at my feet.”

Chang Qing said, “Hurry up and eat. You still have to go to school after eating.”

Lu Hua groaned then lowered her head to eat.

After a while, Lu Hua looked up again and said, “I’m so happy.”

No one paid any attention to her, and she muttered to herself, “Don’t you really think I’m very good? I asked him for 5 million all at once.”

Chang Qing: “…”

Lu Zheng said, “What, the rice can’t stop your mouth anymore?”

Lu Hua: “Second brother, are you really not going to praise me?”

Lu Zheng said coldly: “Roll!”2

Lu Hua lowered her head and silently pushed her food into her mouth.

Lu Zheng glanced at Lu Hua, then looked away.

What’s the use this time? His sister is still stupid.

It’s a pity. I thought I could send her away. Lu Zheng thought.
