Me at two years old, a queen!

Chapter 247 Illegitimate child?

Finally, Lu Jing saw Lu Junxing knock and come in without saying a word. He wondered why he, as the father, should give in to him. He was still seething with anger about what the old man had said that afternoon, and had nowhere to vent it.

Apart from the ticking of an antique wall clock, the study was quiet until the clock struck again.

Finally, Lu Jing couldn't hold back any longer and broke the silence first:

"What do you want? Hmph, are you here to attack me on behalf of your mother?"

Lu Junxing realized at this point that he had misunderstood, but he couldn't be blamed. The two recent incidents involving An'an pointed to the Lu family as the underlying culprits.

They don't want the children dead; they only want to destroy them and seize the Lu family's assets. Only they themselves would have this motive, and the Lu family...

The old man was an honest and hardworking man who had worked diligently his entire life. He grew up with his grandparents and knew their relationship best.

Lu Jing is conservative in his work, but he and Ms. Song Yuan met through a blind date, and their marriage was largely a political arrangement. Both were busy with their careers, and in Lu Junxing's view, there was little affection between them.

Moreover, they assumed he was unaware that they had divorced when he took over the Lu family business, simply because neither of them had any romantic ambitions.

Or perhaps they are quite satisfied with their current life; their relationship is actually better now than it was when he was a child.

They remained silent, and he had no intention of disrupting their tranquility, nor did he intend to interfere in their affairs.

So after the incident, his first thought was whether Lu Jing had any illegitimate children outside of marriage; such things are common in wealthy families.

So he wondered if it was this illegitimate child. After he announced to the public that An'an would be the future heir of the Lu family, he couldn't hold back any longer.

They secretly tried to replace An'an's tutor, making her a bad student. After this plan was exposed, they tried to bribe the bankrupt parent of one of the kindergarten children, intending to kidnap the child from the kindergarten.

Gouging out an eye, breaking an arm, or a leg, leaving a child with a disability—even if that doesn't directly change the heir of the Lu family.

However, it can also deal a heavy blow to the Lu family, at least forcing An'an to live in the shadows, unable to shoulder the burden of the Lu family business.

Although Lu Junxing admitted that the person behind this had indeed hurt his weak spot, what angered him was that the person behind it was only after the Lu family's interests.

To hurt his daughter for such a small thing is really underestimating her worth!

However, he was also worried that there might be some other branches of the Lu family that he didn't know about, so he only mentioned this matter to the old man.

During dinner, he noticed Lu Jing's displeased expression and knew that the old man had spoken to him. Therefore, even though the old man had so confidently assured him that morning that Lu Jing had no illegitimate children,

He didn't completely trust Lu Jing, which is why he called Lu Jing back that afternoon. So, knowing this, he felt very troubled all evening.

It wasn't entirely because of tutoring the troublesome student's homework; half of it was due to Lu Jing.

So when Lu Jing asked this question, Lu Junxing nodded directly and replied, "It's not so much about a punitive expedition, but to put it bluntly, that's part of the idea!"

With a loud crash, Lu Jing angrily threw the purple clay teapot in his hand away. Aside from the earlier years when he was dissatisfied with Lu Junxing taking over Lu's Group and sweeping away the older generation of employees and implementing what kind of reforms!

Furthermore, he acted arrogantly due to his youth, offending many people in the business world. Despite Lu Jing's attempts to stop him, he wouldn't listen, leading to frequent arguments.

Over the years, one has stepped back from the limelight, while the other has grown powerful enough. Although they don't get along well, at least they don't have such direct arguments anymore.

Lu Jing stood up abruptly, pointed at Lu Junxing, and began to curse:

"How dare you say that! You, as a son, how do you see your father? You're always scheming and questioning this and that, and now you're even starting to suspect me?"

"What? Is this all you're capable of? You can't even protect your own child, and now someone's trying to take advantage of An'an! You can't even find anyone to help you now. What kind of father are you?!"

As Lu Jing spoke, he grew increasingly angry. In the blink of an eye, the entire tea set he had just asked someone to buy for him, including the teapot and cups, shattered on the floor.

"Your methods don't work. You can't find anything outside, so you've brought your tricks home. You even suspect that I gave birth to a younger brother for you outside? If I did!"

"I'll remove you from your position tomorrow, and I'll replace you with someone else. I'll also find a capable father for my precious grandson!"

Exhausted from yelling, Lu Jing raised his hand to test the water, only to find that he had smashed all the teaware on the table. Now, his mouth was so dry he had no water to drink.

After resting for a while, seeing that Lu Junxing remained silent, Lu Jing suddenly remembered that he had seen another side of Lu Junxing taking care of the child these past few days. Every time he saw Lu Junxing with a cold and impatient expression,

But every time An'an pulls him aside wanting to buy a toy or play something, he stops his work and accompanies her to do what she enjoys.

These were things he, as a father, had never done to him. Thinking of this, Lu Jing's tone towards Lu Junxing was no longer as harsh as before, but rather contained a hint of helplessness:

"I told you not to be too flamboyant. Every single one of those people in the business world is senior enough to be your elder. Now you've offended a whole bunch of people, and I don't even know who they are, and they've even come to mess with my precious grandson!"

"If it weren't for my precious grandson, I wouldn't bother with your nonsense. If you ask me, those people should have kidnapped you, made you suffer, and taught you a lesson!"

Finally, hearing the commotion, Uncle Liu, worried about the father and son, turned and knocked on Ms. Song Yuan's door. Only then did Ms. Song Yuan realize that the two of them had been arguing there in the middle of the night.

She had been wondering what urgent matter had happened when Lu Junxing returned today, so she put on her clothes and went to Lu Jing's study door. Before she could knock,

Lu Jing's loud voice pierced through the soundproofing the Lu family home. She vaguely heard something amiss at the door, and without even bothering to knock, she stopped.

He opened the door directly and asked anxiously:

"What's wrong? What happened? An'an is perfectly fine."

"I knew you were all acting strange today. The old man has seen all kinds of storms, so why did he get angry just because Junxing came back?"

Seeing that Ms. Song Yuan was in a hurry, Lu Jing offered her a chair and told her to sit down: "It's alright, An'an is fine, don't worry!"

After Ms. Song Yuan heard Lu Jing finish speaking, she looked at Lu Junxing somewhat awkwardly and explained on Lu Jing's behalf:

"Junxing, no matter how many flaws your father has, Mom can assure you that he is a good person, and you will always be our only child!"
