Chapter 73 – Consequences (3)
However, no matter what horrible things Lu Shaoren did, he was still his son.
It didn’t matter who he chose. Having to choose between his son and grandson, it felt like a piece of his heart was being sliced off.
After contemplating for a while, Old Master Lu tiredly waved his hand. “Since there’s conclusive evidence, let the police handle this matter. Sort out the Lu family’s company as soon as possible. Don’t let our family become a laughing stock.”
Lu Beichuan understood that this was the compromise that Old Master Lu had decided on. In a low voice, he said, “I understand.”

In the living room, Mother Lu wasn’t upset at all that Lu Shaoren had been arrested. She continued to leisurely and elegantly plan her son’s wedding for him.
Holding Ye Zhen’s hand, she said, “Qingqing, when would be a good time for me to meet your parents so I can talk to them? I want to finish up the remaining wedding arrangements. We need a list of the family friends and relatives that your parents want to invite to the wedding.”
Hearing the word “wedding” felt like hearing an invocation that would crush her to death.
It would curse her to the identity of “Mrs. Lu.”
“This…. I’ll go ask them.”
“It’s the Lu family’s fault for delaying in sitting down and having a chat with your parents. How about this, I have time tomorrow. I’ll come along when you and your younger sister go home tomorrow. While I’m there, I’ll pay your parents a visit, and I’ll talk to them then.”
“This…”
The more that Mother Lu thought about it, the more that she felt it would be a good idea to see her in-laws as early as possible. They could also discuss the details of the wedding together during her visit.

“It’s settled then. Mom will go with you tomorrow. Alright, I’m going to go prepare some gifts for the visit tomorrow.” After saying this, she hummed a little ditty as she walked upstairs with a smile.
When Ye Zhen had first come to the Lu family, Mother Lu had to suffer in silence and behave obsequiously. But now, Mother Lu’s life was becoming happier and more carefree. In this case, it could be seen that sometimes you were better off without a man than having one.
From the living room, Ye Zhen saw Ye Qing standing in the second floor corridor and gesturing at herself. She immediately understood Ye Qing’s meaning. Ye Zhen stood up and walked upstairs. Right after she entered the room, she saw Ye Qing sitting on the couch and looking extremely anxious.
“What took you so long?!” Ye Qing got up and locked the door. She wanted to immediately change clothes with Ye Zhen and was very impatient about it.

However, Ye Zhen remained seated on the sofa and didn’t even twitch. It looked like a cloud of gloom was hovering over her head.
“Let’s quickly change our clothes. If we wait, we won’t have time later.”
Ye Zhen looked at her older sister, who’s mind only had thoughts of becoming Mrs. Lu. She sighed and said, “Older sister, there’s no point anymore. Lu Beichuan already knows.”
Ye Qing didn’t immediately connected the dots. “He knows what?”
“He knows everything. He knows that we tried to fool him and the whole story behind me taking your place in marrying him originally. He was only pretending that he didn’t know.” Ye Zhen quietly said, “It was all a waste of effort. All we did was give him a free show to watch.”
Ye Qing’s heartbeat sped up after she heard these words. After a long pause, she incredulously asked, “Are you saying that not only does Lu Beichuan know that you took my place in marrying him originally, he also knows that I was the one living in the Lu family’s villa these past few days instead of you.”
Ye Zhen nodded.
Ye Qing stood in place in shock. She thought about Ye Zhen’s words for a while before she suspiciously looked at Ye Zhen. “How did he find out?”
Lu Beichuan had only woken up half a month ago, and he had spent almost all of his time at the hospital doing physical therapy. How could he have found out about all this?
Ye Qing stared at Ye Zhen and demanded, “Did you tell him?”
It really was Ye Zhen’s fault. She had told Lu Beichuan everything back when she thought he was unconscious.
When she thought it about it, she really had brought all of this onto herself. If she hadn’t blabbed this secret, Lu Beichuan wouldn’t have found out about “Ye Zhen” taking Ye Qing’s place in the marriage.
“It doesn’t matter who told him. We can’t change the fact that he already knows everything. You don’t have to worry though. You want to be Mrs. Lu, right? That’s still possible.”
***
Since Lu Beichuan already knew the truth, there was no need for Ye Qing and Ye Zhen to play games.
Ye Zhen had Ye Qing go back to her room. She would figure out a solution on her own.
Shortly after Ye Qing was sent away, the old butler knocked on the door before coming inside with a small cart that was loaded with midnight snacks and tonics that were specially prepared for Ye Zhen. One by one, he transferred the items onto a table.
