Jiang Yining felt that Lu Zhi was too easy-going today, so she scratched her palm and asked, “Lu Zhi, aren’t you afraid that he will cause trouble for the Lu family?”

The Gu family was no less powerful than the Lu family.

She had lived with them for so many years and she knew how influential the Gu’s were.

Gu Zhanqing was not someone who would let things go easily.

Jiang Yining was really worried that she would get Lu Zhi into trouble.

Lu Zhi crossed his long legs and said confidently, “If he wants to find trouble with me, then he can come at me. If 1 can handle members of the Tao family, 1 can handle him too.”

He paused for a moment before he continued, “So, you don’t have to worry about this. Just stay by my side in peace.”

Jiang Yining stared at his side profile and felt that her heart was struck by something.

She was stunned for a few seconds before she coughed awkwardly.

Then, she looked away and out the car window.

Meanwhile at the resort, a doctor brought some ointment and walked up to Gu Zhanqing. “Sir, apply some medicine. Otherwise, the swelling could become worse after tonight.”

No one expected the usually quiet Miss Yining to actually slap Mr. Gu.

That was the greatest act of defiance in the Gu family!

If Lu Zhi hadn’t come and taken her away, Miss Yining might suffer some serious punishment tonight.

Gu Zhanqing pushed the ointment away and said coldly, “I don’t need this. Immediately hire someone to gather information on everyone in the Lu family. Also, send a note to the old Lu residence and let the old master know that I will pay him a visit.”

“Yes.” Gu Zhanqing’s assistant nodded.

At this moment, a servant hurriedly walked up and whispered, “Sir, Miss All Rou is on the phone.”

The anger and coldness on Gu Zhanqing’s face instantly simmered down.

After taking the phone from the servant, he softened her tone and said, “Ah Rou, it’s late. Why aren’t you asleep yet? Didn’t the doctor say that you must sleep before nine o’clock every night?”

A gentle cough sounded on the other end of the line, and then a delicate voice said, “I heard that you’ve found Yining. I was worried, so 1 called. Is Yining alright? Uncle, when can you bring Yining home? 1 miss her very much.”

At the mention of Jiang Yining, the image of her slapping him just now flashed across his mind.

If not because of Ah Ron’s concern for her, why would he care about that b*stard?

His heart was in turmoil, but Gu Zhanqing’s voice was as gentle as ever.

“Yes, we’ve found her but she’s still angry with me. I’ll persuade her for a few days and she’ll obediently follow me home. Don’t worry, take care of your health.”

“Alright. Thank you for your trouble, Uncle. Yining’s temper is… When she gets home, I’ll definitely have a good chat with her.”

“Okay, you go to bed early.”

“Okay, Uncle, sleep early too. Good night.”

Jiang Rou hung up.

Gu Zhanqing lifted his hand and rested his aching forehead on it.

He didn’t know how Yining had managed to establish a relationship with the Lu family.

In any case, he must find a way to bring Yining home as soon as possible.

Otherwise, Ah Rou would be worried about her all the time and her health wouldn’t get better.

If this continued, there would be problems sooner or later.

The next day, all the major media outlets reported on Elder Tao’s purchase of a Qi Bai painting at a sky-high price. The entire A-City was shocked.

Jiang Yining looked at her own painting on the news report, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

News had reached the old Lu residence and Old Master Lu called Jiang Yining personally and asked her to go back with Lu Zhi.

Jiang Yining really wanted to go to the old residence. After all, that was the place where she could get all the information about Lu Beicheng. However, if she went there, she would have to face Old Madam Lu, Chen Kexin, and the others.

She couldn’t muster up the energy.

Lu Zhi sipped his coffee and said, “If you don’t want to go back, 1 can help you reject Grandpa.”

In this family, no one could force her to do anything she didn’t want to do.

Jiang Yining lay on the sofa and said lazily, “Let’s just go back. Putting everything aside, 1 should at least tell Grandpa about Gu Zhanqing. Otherwise, he and the rest of the family would be dumbfounded if any conflict breaks out.” “Okay, as you wish.”

After Jiang Yining made the decision to go back to the old Lu residence, she ran upstairs and put the Chinese medicine she had prepared into a bag.

It was prepared for Lu Zhi’s mother, Shen Man.

Her previous interactions with Shen Man made her feel that she wasn’t as mean as the other people in the Lu family, especially when Lu Zhi described her as such.

Besides, she was Lu Beicheng’s mother and she would know her son better than anyone else.

She was unwilling to reveal too much to her because they were not close.

Therefore, Jiang Yining decided that she must try to win over her mother-in-law.

So that she could get some useful information from her sooner rather than later.

After getting everything ready, Jiang Yining went to the main entrance to meet up with Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi noticed that she had brought a lot of things and asked, “What’s in your bag?”

“Oh, it’s a gift for Grandpa. I promised him the last time we played Go.” Jiang Yining gave him a vague answer.

Lu Zhi nodded and didn’t probe further.

The two of them took a car back to the old Lu residence.

Old Madam Lu didn’t welcome them. Perhaps because she was still angry with Lu Zhi for refusing to reconcile with the Tao family.

However, Old Master Lu and Shen Man were both there.

Jiang Yining took out the gift that she had prepared and handed it to Shen Man. She said caringly with sincere eyes, “Mom, 1 saw that you didn’t look very well, so I prescribed some Chinese medicine for you. Drink a sachet every day to help you recuperate.”

Shen Man was a little stunned. She did not expect her daughter-in-law to prepare a gift for her when her relationship with Ah Zhi was so bad.

After a rather long pause, she reached out to take the medicine from Jiang Yining and said politely, “You’re so thoughtful. Thank you.”

“I’m your daughter-in-law. We’re family. You are most welcome.” Jiang Yining smiled fawningly.

When Shen Man heard this, the coldness on her face defrosted a little, and there was a hint of a smile.

Lu Zhi shot a cold look at Jiang Yining.

Jiang Yining sensed his warning gaze but didn’t look at him. She just smiled and looked at the others.

Anyway, he wouldn’t dare to do anything to her in front of so many people.

Old Master Lu was quite pleased when he saw this.

He knew why the relationship between his daughter-in-law and his grandson had dropped to freezing point.

But he didn’t feel that it was his place to mediate.

Now that Yining was there to ease the tension between them, the mother and son should slowly get along instead of behaving like oil and water.

“Yining, you prepared a gift for your mom. Did you prepare anything for me, the old man?” Old Master Lu teased to alleviate the tension.

Jiang Yining replied proudly, “Of course, 1 have. Grandpa, don’t you have high blood pressure? This is the medicine 1 specially prepared for you. Take it on time every day. 1 guarantee that you will be healthy and live to 200 years old.” “Nonsense, if I live to be 200 years old, won’t I become an old monster?” Old Master Lu said disdainfully, but his face was full of joy.

Everyone wanted to live a long life.

Especially someone with status like Old Master Lu.

“Grandpa is not an old monster. You are my favorite elder.” Jiang Yining continued to flatter him.

Old Master Lu laughed out loud.

Just as everyone was enjoying themselves, Old Madam Lu walked into the living room with a stack of photos, her face depressingly dark..
