Official Career Storm

When the grandmother spoke, everyone's eyes turned towards her.

Then, they all instinctively glanced at Lu Shaqing, who was still lying on the ground.

They couldn't help but tremble slightly in their hearts.

Others may not know, but they had personally witnessed the Old Lady firing the gun.

Six consecutive shots, without blinking an eye, the gun didn't even jerk.

This old grandmother must have been quite the formidable person in her youth.

They had no doubt that if Lu Shaohua dared to nod, the Old Lady would dare to shoot directly.

Lu Shaohua said, "I told you, I'm a reasonable person."

"My brother wouldn't bring people to your door for no reason. Even if he injured your grandson, no matter how much compensation is needed, we, the Lu Family, can afford it!"

"But your grandson fired a gun, so for every shot he fired, I'll return one."

"Old Lady, I'm willing to reason with you now. I'll compensate your grandson one million for the medical expenses, and let's end this here."

"But if you're unwilling to reason with me, I also have ways to resolve it without reasoning."

Lu Shaohua spoke calmly, "But I think you wouldn't want to know the way things are resolved without reasoning."

After saying this, he looked at the grandmother.

The grandmother unlocked the safety on the handgun, nodded softly, "I understand."

"You're not here to reason, you're here to cause trouble for my grandson."

Lu Shaohua's gaze turned cold. He had lost most of his patience.

"Since... "

He had just started speaking when Lu Yuan's phone suddenly rang.

Lu Yuan took out the phone, glanced at the caller, and quickly answered, "Hello, dad..."

"Where are you?" The Lu Family Patriarch, Lu Xiao, asked with a cold tone.

"I, I'm outside."

"Address!"

Lu Yuan felt strange, not understanding why his father was asking for such specifics, but still said, "I'm in Lingjiang."

Lu Xiao asked, "Are you in Zhuxi Village?"

Lu Yuan was taken aback, "Yes, dad you..."

"You fool!"

Lu Xiao angrily cursed, "Why did you go there?"

"Dad..."

"Speak!"

Lu Yuan had no choice but to lower his voice and quickly explain the situation to him.

Learning that Lu Shaqing actually went to Zhuxi Village for a woman he hasn't even met, Lu Xiao was furious, "You idiot, this fool!"

"How could I have such an idiotic son, such a foolish grandson!"

Even Lu Yuan realized that his father's call and anger were probably influenced by the Old Lady's call just now.

What kind of identity does this Old Lady's son have to make his father so furious?

"Dad..."

"Apologize!" Lu Xiao interrupted him, "Immediately apologize to the Song Family!"

"No matter the cost, you must obtain the Song Family's forgiveness!"

"But dad, Shaqing was shot!"

"Forget being shot, even if Shaqing died there, it's his own fault!"

Lu Xiao angrily said, "I'm heading over there right now. Keep the situation stable until I arrive. Remember, if you can't get the Song Family's forgiveness, you all are no longer part of the Lu Family!"

"If you want to die, don't drag the Lu Family down with you!"

After scolding him, Lu Xiao hung up the phone.

Lu Yuan stood there dazed, in disbelief.

Just who is this Old Lady living in the village?

And who is her son?

The Lu Family may not be considered immensely wealthy in Nanjiang Province, but they are among the top families.

His father has decent connections in both political and commercial circles.

Yet, even such a father lost composure.

This Song Family seems like a devouring beast.

Lu Shaohua furrowed his brows slightly; it was his first time seeing his father show such an expression.

The call just now was from his grandfather.

What did grandpa say?

"Dad..."

"Shut up!"

Lu Yuan stood up immediately, his voice quivering slightly.

Lu Shaohua stood stunned, not understanding why his father was scolding him.

Lu Yuan promptly walked up to the Old Lady, bending his waist to a ninety-degree angle in front of everyone's puzzled gaze.

"Old Lady, I'm sorry."

"It's my lack of discipline that allowed my rebellious son to offend you."

His attitude and words, this drastic change left those present momentarily stunned.

Lu Shaqing on the ground momentarily forgot the pain in his body, turning his head to look at his father apologizing, incredulous.

His wife Yang Hui slightly opened her mouth, confusion written all over her eyes.

Lu Shaohua's eyes widened in anger.

He was very upset.

However, he was the most clear-headed.

He knew that his grandfather must have said something during the call.

This family's power seemed to be greater than the Lu Family!

And possibly, not just marginally greater.

Otherwise, with how proud grandpa was, how could he possibly let them apologize?

"Dad!" Lu Shaqing angrily said, "Why should we apologize to them, I want to kill..."

"Be quiet!"

This time, it wasn't Lu Yuan speaking but Lu Shaohua!

"Brother, he..."

"I told you to shut up!"

Lu Shaohua walked over, suddenly grabbing his collar, pulling him up from the ground.

Ignoring his pain, he dragged him in front of the grandmother, throwing him to the ground: "Kneel down and apologize to the Old Lady!"

Lu Shaqing's brain was filled with rage, making rational thinking difficult.

If he were even a bit calm, he could deduce from Lu Yuan and Lu Shaohua's attitudes that this Song Family was not to be trifled with.

Yet, he simply couldn't calm down.

He only knew that his most beloved father and brother not only didn't help him but instead conceded to the other party.

He couldn't accept this.

The crowd looked at Lu Shaohua with surprise in their eyes.

They didn't expect the man who was threatening Song Guanchao a moment ago would concede the next.

Despite appearing burly, his mind was delicate.

Those present were shrewd, already guessing that the grandmother's phone call had worked.

They were equally curious about the Old Lady's son, Song Guanchao's uncle, and his true identity.

Judging by the Lu family's attitude, the Lu Family's standing in Nanjiang Province shouldn't be ordinary.

A single phone call can make them yield.

The Old Lady's son's identity is clearly extraordinary.

At this point, Yang Hui also realized, quickly running over, "Old Lady, I apologize on behalf of my son."

The grandmother put down the handgun, "Go to the village entrance and kneel."

The couple's bodies trembled slightly, Lu Shaohua clenched his fist instinctively, but soon released it.

"Understood!"

Lu Shaohua immediately grabbed his brother, turning to walk out.

Without the slightest hesitation, he went straight to the village entrance and knelt down with a thud.

As soon as they knelt, Lu Yuan and his wife also came over and knelt beside them.

Lu Shaqing had calmed down a bit and was no longer making a fuss.

His legs were shot, making it impossible for him to kneel properly, his body's weight entirely on Lu Shaohua.

He asked sourly, "Dad, what did grandpa say?"

Lu Yuan sighed, "We can't afford to provoke this Song Family."

"Your grandpa said that if we can't get the Song Family's forgiveness, we... will be expelled from the family."

Upon hearing the words, the brothers both trembled inside.

Lu Shaqing gritted his teeth, feeling helpless for the first time.

Lu Shaohua asked coldly, "Dad, was the Jiang Family the one who sent you here?"
