Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 491: Devoted Lover

She really has had enough of this kind of life!

Wu Mei covered her swollen face and gave Lu Zhenhua a slap back!

The crisp sound of the slap was heard clearly by everyone present.

The two of them couldn’t move their feet, but it didn’t hinder them from swinging slaps and fists at each other.

Lu Zhenhua and Wu Mei soon started wrestling, Wu Mei clawing at Lu Zhenhua’s face, Lu Zhenhua pulling Wu Mei’s hair. Previously, they at least had some status, but now they were like shrews having a brawl.

Lu Zefang stood not far behind them, her face full of despair.

She thought things would get complicated once Lu Zechuan got involved, but she never imagined things would become this complicated.

Her own father and mother were tearing at each other like they were enemies...

"Dad~ Mom~" Lu Zefang shouted loudly, her voice carrying a touch of shrillness.

With this sharp shout from Lu Zefang, Wu Mei and Lu Zhenhua seemed to come to their senses, realizing their situation.

However, neither was willing to withdraw their grip on the other.

"Don’t think that by pulling this stunt, you can muddle through!" Lu Zechuan let out a cold laugh, "If you don’t sign this paper today, none of you will be able to move even a bit."

Wu Mei and Lu Zhenhua slowly released their grips on each other’s hands.

The crazed look on their faces gradually faded, replaced by a look of deep despair.

"We’ll sign." This time, Wu Mei was the one who spoke up voluntarily.

They had torn each other apart to this extent, but Lu Zeming hadn’t said a word.

Their son no longer cares about them at all.

The only leverage they had for being so brazen was that Lu Zeming still cared about them.

But now, they’ve lost their only leverage.

Lu Zechuan’s expression was cold, as he tossed three agreements into the hands of the three people, calmly saying, "Sign them!"

Their hands trembled slightly as they received the three agreements and took the pen from Lu Zechuan.

The three of them tremblingly signed their names at the bottom of the agreements.

After signing the agreements, Lu Zechuan collected them, folded them neatly, and placed them in his pocket.

Lu Zhenhua opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing.

Wu Mei’s face was ashen, her gaze fixed directly on Lu Zeming, her lips moved slightly, but she couldn’t utter a word in the end.

At this point, there seemed to be nothing left to say between them and Lu Zeming.

After Lu Zechuan had put away the agreements, the three members of the Lu family, whose feet had been immovable, suddenly found they could move again.

Being able to move, the three immediately slunk away, heads drooped.

Lu Zechuan watched their backs disappear from his vision, exhaled a long breath, "Ah Ming, you don’t blame me for doing this, do you?"

Lu Zeming gave a bitter laugh, "I don’t blame you."

Not only does he not blame Lu Zechuan, but he also has to thank him.

If not for him, I might never have mustered the resolve to sever ties with my family.

And he is very clear in his heart that now his family will only endlessly drain him and lead him into ruin!

Of course, this is not the ultimate reason for his decision to cut ties with his family.

He chose to sever relations with them, hoping that such incidents as today’s would never happen again!

He can tolerate his parents’ indifference and abuse towards him, but he cannot tolerate their disregard for human life.

Today, because Xia Mian was there, the woman who jumped off the bridge could be saved, but what about next time?

He holds righteousness in his heart and cannot let his family ruin his hard-earned reputation!

"You all are quite busy, right?" Lu Zeming gave a faint smile, "Go do your work, don’t worry about me."

Lu Zechuan squinted slightly, his gaze fell on the Lu family’s bodyguards behind Lu Zeming, and his eyes seemed to say: Protect the second young master.

The bodyguards caught the hint and nodded slightly towards Lu Zechuan.

Only then did Lu Zechuan extend a hand and heavily patted Lu Zeming’s shoulder, "Alright, we’ll head back first, you take care too!"

As he spoke, Lu Zechuan turned and took Xia Mian’s hand.

The two bid farewell to Lu Zeming, got in the car, and drove away from the river bridge.

"I hope those people can learn a lesson from today." Lu Zechuan said softly as he drove.

Lu Zechuan doesn’t want to take things to the extreme, but if Lu Zhenhua’s family of three continues to act recklessly, he really can’t guarantee he won’t do something crazy.

Xia Mian pressed her lips together, her gaze passed the car window, looking out.

Outside, the sun was bright, already showing signs of spring.

"Let’s hope so!" Xia Mian sighed softly.

This is not like the Mystical World, where disagreement allows them to kill.

Here, even if she finds some people annoying, she can only teach them a lesson, not harm their lives.

However, for people like the Lu family’s household, it’s clear that hope cannot be placed in their conscience.

Xia Mian lowered her gaze, her mind stirred slightly, and she gently moved her fingers.

With the gentle movement of her fingers, threads of spiritual energy quietly dispersed.

She can’t dictate these people’s actions and thoughts, but she can use her own ways to understand their dynamics.

Once they do something outrageous, she can deal with them without showing her face!

If they really irritate her, she might take their lives without appearing, it’s not impossible.

"Take me to Song Group!" Xia Mian said calmly, "Haven’t gone there for a while, I’ll go check the company’s operations."

Lu Zechuan nodded.

Although he and Xia Mian are each the helm of their companies, due to their special identities, they disappear every now and then.

If it weren’t for each having pillars in the company, their companies would likely have ceased operations long ago.

Lu Zechuan dropped Xia Mian off at Song Group’s building, arranged a time to pick her up, and then drove away.

Xia Mian then turned and entered Song Group.

Entering the Song Group building, Xia Mian immediately noticed the reception personnel in the lobby looked familiar.

Xia Mian frowned, not sure if she should go talk to her, when the person had already walked out from behind the counter, approaching Xia Mian.

Xia Mian narrowed her eyes, her gaze falling scrutinously on the person’s face.

Compared to the last time she saw her, Ji Ling now appeared more mature and composed.

The rebellious dreadlocks were replaced with sleek, straight shoulder-length hair, and the defiant expression on her face had completely dissipated.

She stood before Xia Mian, her gaze unprecedentedly calm, "Miss Xia."

Xia Mian gave a faint nod, "Could your Ji Family not accommodate you? You needed to come to our Song Group to work as a receptionist?"

Ji Ling gave a faint smile, "Miss Xia, I came to Song Group to wait for you."
