Chapter 532: Don’t You Slander People Here!
“What now?” Lu Qianqian was shocked by the bloody scene just now.
“Don’t you think it’s weird that he has the keys to Lu Mansion?” Lin Mu’an asked in return.
“He said he’s not the one who put the snakes.”
Lin Mu’an glanced at Lu Qianqian and turned to Mama Lu. He said, “Mommy, can you call the other uncles for me? Since he is a Lu, they should not let just the two of you to face this problem. They are blood brothers. They are closer to him in relation than the two of you.”
“Okay.” Mama Lu nodded.
“What about those outside?”
“They won’t be able to stay long after the police arrive. It’s just that your third uncle is very emotional now. He might be pretending, but I can handle it. You stay here with your mother until the rest of your uncles come.”
Lu Qianqian heard Lin Mu’an’s words and grabbed his arm. “Will it be alright?”
“Don’t worry. Since I am the only male in this family, I will protect you well.” Having said that, Lin Mu’an gave Lu Qianqian a pat on the head. Then, he opened the door and walked out.
In the living room, Third Uncle seemed to have calmed down a little. He was sitting on the sofa with bloodstains all over his body. He still looked very anxious, like a frightened bird.
“How is it? What did Qianqian say?”
“Don’t panic. Those people downstairs have already left,” said Lin Mu’an. “Qianqian was talking on the phone. She’s trying to get the money now. While waiting, can you tell me why you have the keys to Lu Mansion?”
“It’s not just me. The other uncles have the keys as well,” said Third Uncle. “It really wasn’t me who put the snakes. It’s the youngest brother.”
‘How despicable of him to deal with two women this way.’ Lin Mu’an snorted.
Third Uncle thought that Lu Qianqian was raising money for him. What he did not know was that the other uncles were rushing to Lu Mansion after getting the news.
They came to the house one after another. This made Third Uncle feel very embarrassed.
“Why did you notify them?”
“They are your brothers. Shouldn’t I inform them when you commit a sin? Do you think you can bully Qianqian and her mother just because they are women?”
They were shocked and felt sick when they saw the blood pool on the floor. Before they were seated, they thought that someone had come here to kill Lu Qianqian.
But when they saw both mother and daughter coming out of the room, they were relieved.
If anything bad happened and made it to the news, Lu Holdings would be affected.
“I asked you all to come here because I want to discuss something with you. Third Uncle is being chased for a thirty million debt,” Lu Qianqian explained to the puzzled men. “He hopes we can save him. What do you think?”
“Why? What does it have to do with us that he is a gambler?” Second Uncle voiced out. “He is the one who is being chased for money. Why must we take on this pile of debt?”
“Second Uncle, I’m sure you’ve noticed that Third Uncle has lost his hand. As his brother, can you really not help him?”
“You are the chairperson of Lu Holdings. Why can’t you take care of the matter?”
“So now you acknowledge me as the chairperson.” Lu Qianqian snorted coldly. “Thirty million dollars should not be a very big amount to you, right? You spent way more than that on your beautiful mistresses.”
“Qianqian, it’s our money so it’s up to us how to use it. I simply don’t want to spend money on this gambler. What can you do about that?”
“What about the youngest Lu uncle? Are you not saving him as well? If you agree on this, each of our family shall contribute ten million dollars to help Third Uncle to overcome this problem. What say you?” Lu Qianqian turned her head and looked at her youngest uncle.
The youngest Lu uncle was the most calculative one. Facing this situation, he simply said, “When Eldest Brother was still alive, he was just like our father. So, we had to indeed be united. But he is gone now, so I think we better just live our separate lives. Besides, we don’t know who Third Brother has offended this time. If he gambles again, what will happen to us? We have our own families. We can’t always settle the problem for him, right?”
All in all, he did not want to fork out a single penny. Even if it was just ten million dollars, he was unwilling to contribute.
After listening to his brothers, Third Uncle glared at them angrily. “You beasts! Don’t irritate me or I will expose all your dirty deeds to the media!”
“Damn it! You are the one who is being chased by the creditors. People will only focus on you. If you make this issue big, Qianqian will be the first one who will disagree because it will tarnish the reputation of Lu Holdings.”
Third Uncle was speechless after listening to the youngest Lu uncle’s words.
“Alright, I now know your stance on this. Since we are all here, we shall make this clear. It’s not a problem that you don’t want to save Third Uncle. I won’t force you anyhow. But if you face the same problem in the future, you will not get our help. Don’t tell me I didn’t remind you of this in advance.”
“We don’t need it.” Second Uncle smiled confidently.
“Okay then. You can leave now. But before that, hand me the keys to my house. Otherwise, I will let the lawyers take care of this. Rubbish is simply rubbish. They only know how to do nasty things. They won’t even spare the women.”
The other two uncles’ faces turned ugly after being scolded by Lu Qianqian.
“We don’t know what you are talking about…”
“They have the keys, I assure you,” Third Uncle said once more. Since they were ruthless to him, he would not be loyal to them anymore.
“Don’t you slander people here.”
“And the snakes in Qianqian’s room are the work by the youngest brother.”
“We don’t want to waste time listening to your nonsense anymore.” Then, they swiftly stood up and left Lu Mansion.
And then, Lu Qianqian looked at her third uncle coldly. “So, these are your brothers, shameless men.”
“I wasn’t expecting them to help me in the first place,” Third Uncle said in despair. “I know that you are not willing to help me. But I have nowhere to go. I have no choice.”
“My offer is still open. I can give you the money, but you must give me the shares in your hand as a pledge. The money is only worth a small portion of your shares. So, you don’t have to be so anxious. I just want to let you know that you paid for the money. If you want to gamble again, you will take this into consideration.”
After listening to Lu Qianqian’s words, Third Uncle finally nodded. “I promise you.”
“Had you agreed to this earlier, things would not have turned out like this. The bodyguard will accompany you to the hospital later. He will ensure your safety tonight. Come here to sign and get the money tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Third Uncle Lu finally reached a compromise with Lu Qianqian.
He got to know his little niece deeper once more. She was definitely not a paper tiger.
“I will return you the keys.”
“It’s unnecessary anymore. I will change the lock to one with a fingerprint scanner,” said Lu Qianqian. She was not sure how many duplicated keys the uncles had. So, it was meaningless to ask them to return the keys.
