Chapter 96: Gratitude
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu He finally couldn’t pretend anymore. The fake smile on his face disappeared bit by bit, as if a wild beast had finally bared its fangs. He looked at Lu Zhen gloomily. “Then what do you want? Do you want Rourou to kneel down and apologize to you?”
Lu Zhen grinned. “Sure. If she can kneel in front of me and beg me to forgive her, I’ll pretend that this never happened.”
Lu He slapped the table. After the table trembled violently, the fish soup spilled out. “Lu Zhen! Have you forgotten your identity? Do you think you’re qualified to talk to me like this just because you’re a little famous? This is Rourou’s fault, but you’re her sister. You know that she’s impulsive. Why can’t you forgive her?
What have I taught you since you were young?”
Lu Zhen sneered. How has Lu He taught her since she was young? Lu He had taught her since she was young that she had to give in to Lu Rou. She had to give up all the good things to Lu Rou. Even if Lu Rou hit and scolded her, she could not hate Lu Rou.
“You’re her sister. This is what you should do. If you can’t do this, your mother and I won’t like you. We brought you back from the orphanage and gave you a home. You have to be grateful and listen to us. Do you understand?”
Lu He’s words seemed to ring in Lu Zhen’s ears. The resentment in her heart fermented bit by bit. The desolation and misery of her previous life made her calm heart become angry.
To hell with gratitude!
Lu Zhen looked at Lu He coldly. “It’s God’s business to forgive her. I’m not God. I just want to send her to jail.”
Lu He looked at Lu Zhen in disbelief. He was about to say something when Lu
Zhen turned to the man sitting beside her and said, “Lawyer Ding, tell Mr. Lu He how Miss Lu Rou will be judged by her actions at the legal level.” Lu He didn’t expect the man who came with Lu Zhen to be a lawyer.
Ding Xian pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up the bridge of his nose and smiled politely at Lu He. “Mr. Lu He, according to the law of China, kidnapping with aggravated circumstances is punishable by more than ten years of imprisonment or life imprisonment, and fines or confiscation of assets…’
“Enough!” Lu He interrupted Ding Xian angrily. He pointed at Lu Zhen with a trembling finger. “Lu Zhen, our family has raised you for so many years. Is this how you repay us now? You actually want to send your sister to jail. Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?”
