Chapter 78: Hope Is Lost

Zhu Mingzhan did not think Song Yujin was lying, but he was unwilling to accept it. So, he continued to coax, “Why was Lu Suo the only person who went to save Zhu Yi? No one else noticed?”

“When Lu Suo went to the bathroom, he heard the sound. That’s how he found out,” said Song Yujin.

Zhu Mingzhan quickly asked, “How did you know? Did Lu Suo teach you to say these words?”

“I saw it.”

Song Yujin’s voice was cold.

“When you guys left, the other children bullied Little Suo. After that, Little Suo went to the bathroom. I was worried he might be bullied again, so I followed him. That’s how I saw everything.”

Lu Gan looked at Song Yujin.

“Who bullied him? What did they do?”

Song Yujin replied, “They said a lot of unpleasant things to Little Suo,”

“Like what?”

Lu Gan pressed.

Lu Suo quickly shouted, “Song Yujin, don’t say it!”

Lu Gan turned back and glanced at Lu Suo. The latter’s expression had changed from shock to grievance.

“I don’t want you to hear it.”

Song Yujin kept quiet.

Lu Gan did not press further. He told Song Ci to cover Lu Suo’s eyes.

“Yujin, turn around as well.”

Lu Gan suppressed his anger and tried his best to be gentle.

Song Yujin obediently turned around.

“Bang!”

Following that sound, screams and cries could be heard.

Since Lu Suo’s eyes were covered, he did not witness Lu Gan’s anger or the injury on Zhu Mingzhan’s shoulder.

“Lu Gan! What are you doing?!”

Lu Suying stood up and roared.

Lu Gan glared at Lu Suying. His eyes were filled with hostility.

“My big brother may be dead, but I’m not! I won’t discipline your grandkids, but I will punish you and your son! You better make sure they never slander Lu Suo again!”

Lu Suying dared not speak anymore.

Lu Gan looked at everyone else who was present in the room.

He said in a cold voice, “All of you are strong and healthy. Your desires are endless. You want to take everything and that’s fine. It doesn’t matter. However, I’m different. My legs are crippled. All I have is my family. If anyone wronged them, I’ll make sure they end up like me. Challenge me if you think you’re capable!”

Lu Gan had always been a petty person. He would say and do whatever he pleased. After the accident, his temperament became worse. If someone offended him, they would have to withstand the counterattack of a madman.

After seeing that everyone remained silent, Lu Gan was finally satisfied. He continued in a deep voice, “Now, apologize to Little Suo.”

Lu Suying was the first to apologize. Lu Gan had hit her son’s shoulder with an ashtray. Even so, she held her breath and dragged Zhu Mingzhan out.

Lu Jie and Lu Hongchang also apologized unwillingly.

Lu Gan then stared at his father.

Lu Hongyong hesitated for a long time. In the end, he said to Lu Suo, “Little Suo, I wasn’t suspecting you. I just want to know the truth. Don’t think too much about it. I’m sorry.”

Lu Suo sneered in his heart but acted innocent externally.

“It’s okay. I don’t blame you, grandpa. It’s Zhu Yi’s fault.”

Since Lu Hongyong only treated Lu Suo as a child, he was not really bothered by this matter.

Lu Gan did not waste any more time and said, “Let’s go.”

The family of four turned around.

Before leaving, he went to Lu Heng’s room so Lu Suo could get changed. The owner of this room was once regarded as the most outstanding person in the Lu family. However, in just less than a year, those who praised him had almost completely forgotten him. They even worked together to bully his son. Clearly, these people had no regard for the dead.

After returning to his villa, Lu Gan comforted Lu Suo for a while before returning to his room. Song Ci was worried, so she followed him.

As for Lu Suo, he went to Song Yujin’s room.

“Little uncle…”

Song Yujin was reading.

He looked at Lu Suo but as usual, his expression did not change.

“I won’t tell my sister and your father. Don’t worry.”

Song Yujin did not beat around the bush. He knew why Lu Suo was here.

Lu Suo’s eyes widened in an instant. Song Yujin had indeed seen everything! Before this, he had his hopes up. Now, everything was shattered.
