CHAPTER 295: CHAPTER 295 I DON’T HAVE SUCH A SON-IN-LAW

The moment the door opened, a slightly plump middle-aged woman stood before him, with short curly hair, her eyebrows and eyes carrying a smile. Upon seeing him standing at the doorway, she was so surprised she opened her mouth wide, "This... this, Old Ji, is this some movie star? How handsome!"

Ji Guoqiang hurriedly ran out, and upon seeing Lu Beichen, hastily grabbed a broom, pointing at him and said, "What are you doing at my home? You deceived my daughter, and you still have the nerve to come?"

He Meijuan could roughly make out what was happening, quickly stepping in to stop Ji Guoqiang, saying, "Is this... this is Tongtong’s husband?"

"I don’t have a son-in-law like this!"

Lu Beichen squinted slightly, his cold and stern face showing no color, his eyes vaguely revealing chilliness.

"Old Ji! Don’t you have some misunderstanding! I’ve watched Tongtong grow up, she wouldn’t be such a reckless person. When you were hospitalized, she was frantic, borrowing money from each of us, but it wasn’t enough. The Shen family’s son was staying far away during those times. If not for Tongtong’s husband, I might not have seen you again! From his appearance, he seems upright, how could he be a swindler!" He Meijuan helped ease the tension.

"What upright appearance, just handsome and liked by you women! I, Ji Guoqiang, won’t fall for it!"

"Father-in-law, I’ve come to discuss something with you!" Lu Beichen said calmly, with no detectable emotion in his tone.

"I have nothing to discuss with you! Unless you divorce my daughter!"

"Do you think it’d be better for her to be Mrs. Lu whom everyone looks up to, or a divorced woman forced to remarry?"

Once Lu Beichen finished, He Meijuan hurriedly said, "Of course they shouldn’t divorce! Why must kids in love be forced to divorce? Old Ji, are you out of your mind? Tongtong was already planning to marry Shen family’s brat. Who knew he wasn’t reliable? Now by chance, she’s married into a good family. Isn’t that great? If she becomes a divorced woman later, how hard it’ll be to find a partner! Look at me, being this old and still alone!"

Ji Guoqiang hesitated for a moment after her words, then added, "Who knows what tricks he’s up to, such wealthy men are always looking for something else even while they have something in hand. Even if Tongtong marries him, who knows if he’s keeping women outside!"

Lu Beichen took a deep breath and strided straight in, causing Ji Guoqiang to instinctively step back.

Just hear him say gently, "Whether my feelings for your daughter are genuine or not isn’t something you can believe just by words now. But shouldn’t you explain to me why your daughter didn’t know why she was in a car accident five years ago?"

As soon as he spoke, Ji Guoqiang’s face changed completely, and on one side, He Meijuan also asked, "Yes! Old Ji, we all don’t understand, you’ve always avoided it!"

Seeing Ji Guoqiang’s face darken, her voice grew smaller and smaller.

Lu Beichen stepped forward again, "Why did she have a car accident? Why was she kept isolated at home for five years?"

The atmosphere suddenly froze; Ji Guoqiang was silent for several seconds before saying, "Has she even told you about the accident?"

His eyes carried suspicion as he stared coldly at Lu Beichen’s expression, "Didn’t she tell you that she crashed the car herself while drunk?"

"Ha~!" Lu Beichen chuckled lightly, "You think I would believe that?"

"Then what do you think happened?" Ji Guoqiang didn’t answer but asked back, then added, "Don’t mention this matter randomly in front of Tongtong in the future!"

"Why not?" he asked casually.

"Didn’t you say your feelings for her are sincere? Then, don’t bring up things that hurt her!" Ji Guoqiang replied angrily.

Hurt?!

Lu Beichen was startled, was it harm inflicted upon her?
