Chapter 101
"Cheng Mo!"

Just in time, Lu Weimang and Xiao Jin returned to the Lu Mansion, and met Cheng Mo at the gate of the Lu Mansion after finishing their work.

Xiao Jin winked at Cheng Mo, and Cheng Mo also felt that the atmosphere of the group on the other side was not right, so he pulled Xiao Jin over and prepared to leave.

"Don't leave yet. When you came to the Lu Mansion a few days ago, I always went to the office, and I didn't have a chance to talk. Today is a rare opportunity. Let's chat."

After finishing speaking, Lu Weimang took the lead to enter the mansion.

Steward Lu, who hurried to the gate of the mansion, didn't know why, so he just stood at the gate and greeted everyone to enter the mansion.

A group of people took their seats in the lobby of the Lu Mansion, Lu Weimang sat on the upper left, Huo Jing sat next to her, Lin Chen followed his young master, and stood behind Huo Jing.

Cheng Mo was sitting opposite Lu Weimang, with Xiao Jin by his side.

The tea in Lu's mansion was Mengding tea from Qionglai. Lu Weimang drank the tea slowly, and everyone in the lobby didn't say a word.

"Housekeeper, let the servants stay away, let's talk in the hall."

"Yes, ma'am."

The butler had to leave and dispersed the crowd, while he stood guard not far from the entrance of the lobby.

Lu Weimang looked at Huo Jing first, "Before you want to tell me what you are doing, don't explain to me every trivial thing, I don't want to hear it."

When Huo Jing heard this, he just drank tea and thought about it, but Lin Chen looked at Cheng Mo, brother and sister, who were beside him.

"Weimang, let's take our leave today, and we'll talk about it another day." Cheng Mo stood up knowingly, and Xiao Jin followed suit.

Lu Weimang waved his hand, "No, you guys sit down, it's nothing serious."

The two sat down again in the stiff atmosphere of the hall, and looked at each other with uneasiness in their eyes.

Although they are with Lu Weimang, they can selectively ignore Lu Weimang's official status.That's because they feel that there is a past friendship between the two parties, and Lu Weimang has always been a casual person.

But now there is Huo Hou, who has power over the government and the opposition. He is an existence that can make people raid their homes and exterminate their families with a wave of their hands.

The faces of the two couldn't help being a little stiff at this moment.

"Cheng Mo, I have always regarded you as my own person. The sugar factory incident is in the past, and I don't want to mention it again. I have always been a person with clear grievances and grievances, and I don't rub the sand in my eyes. You can clearly understand what you want to do. Tell me in vain, as for other cover-up and shadowy means, although I didn't want to care about it at the time, but my patience is limited."

Cheng Mo's face turned pale when he heard this, but Xiao Jin couldn't sit still, "Sister Weimang, is it because I didn't do well that you misunderstood something?"

"Xiao Jin, don't interrupt."

Lu Weimang said directly.

Xiao Jin's big almond eyes were full of tears, and he couldn't get rid of them, looking very pitiful.It's a pity that no one in this hall appreciates it.

Lu Weimang only looked at Cheng Mo, who was holding the tea and didn't move for a long time.

"With your current status, you can help me with just a few fingers. I didn't ask you to do anything, did I?"

Xiao Jin seemed a little surprised when he heard his brother say that, and quickly wiped away his tears with his cuff, "Sister Weimang, why did you force my brother to say these things? The friendship we have been together since we were young..."

"Xiao Jin, stop talking." Cheng Mo stopped Xiao Jin. "If I can do it, I won't come to you again with the cheek. But now in the Cheng family, the uncle in charge cherishes his reputation because he is an official. Just some money is not enough. If there is not enough interest to impress him, he will not Rectify the names of my parents and deal with the culprits who killed my parents."

"So, you are embarrassed, so let Xiaojin come forward and contact the Lu family and even Huohou for you, so that the Cheng family will be afraid of you, so as to follow your wishes?"

Cheng Mo smiled wryly, "You've always been sharp, but you just don't want to tear your face apart. Unexpectedly, after you have been in the capital for a few years, you will have more confidence in speaking and doing things, and you are not afraid of tearing up your disguise in person."

Lu Weimang just shook his head, "You don't need to accuse me secretly, my confidence comes not only from the Lu family, but also from myself. Rather than saying that hatred blinds your eyes, it is better to say that your desire is expanding. You Not reconciled to just avenging your parents, you still want to replace your enemy's position in the Cheng family, and you even think that I, Lu Weimang, have no virtue, and you may do better than me when you become an official in the court."

"I do not have…"

"You have. From the day I met you on the Shangsi Festival, I knew you had. Every word of yours reflects your heart. You think you hide it deeply, but in fact your thoughts are clearly visible in the eyes of others. If You really didn't. The first sentence you said when you saw me should be an apology, not a casual reminiscence with me. The passage of time has taken away your guilt. I live so well now, and let me You feel more at ease, right? I responded to your reminiscences, making you feel that I am still the same as before, I will ignore your faults and understand your difficulties, so you even came to test me, use me, step by step Test my bottom line. Maybe I was cold-faced to you at the beginning and ignored your reminiscences, and you would immediately admit my mistakes and apologize to me. But these days, my tolerance has made you push your limits. Now that I speak out, you will even Blame me. If I let you test me further, maybe in the end, you will even feel that I owe you, that I should not only be used by you, but also use my contacts around me to help you with all my strength, right? Maybe in the end , you not only took revenge and replaced your uncle as the head of the Cheng family, you even asked me to help you enter the court as an official, right? Next..."

"No!" Cheng Mo's face was pale, and he bowed his head without saying a word, but Xiao Jin couldn't help jumping out and interrupting Lu Weimang, "Even if my brother is wrong, it's just because I don't want to part with our original relationship, the hypothetical things you said , It’s all your assumptions, you can’t wrong brother just because of your own assumptions.”

Xiao Jin clenched his fists, filled with righteous indignation to speak for his brother.

Lu Weimang turned his face, glanced at Xiaojin, and then at Cheng Mo, "See for yourself, what have you done all these years? What have you made Xiaojin into?"

Cheng Mo looked at Xiao Jin in a daze, and Xiao Jin smiled back at his elder brother, "Brother, don't be afraid. These are all Sister Weimang's imagination, and you haven't done that yet. Huohou, what do you think, the suspicion of crime has never been Nothing, besides, these are all Sister Weimang's one-sided words. Elder brother just wants to take revenge day and night, and is just eager for quick success, right?"

Xiao Jin looked at Huo Jing with tears in his almond eyes, but Huo Jing didn't seem to hear him, he was thinking about Lu Weimang's words.

Lu Weimang didn't go to see Xiao Jin's performance either, but only looked at Cheng Mo in front of him, "The worries of those who are not satisfied will never be understood. I don't want my old friend to become a villain who spends his whole life working hard. A gentleman is open-minded. , Do what you want. Even if you say bluntly, I want to be an official and want power, I will not look down on you. It’s not that you deceive yourself and say that you are just avenging your parents. It’s really just There are a hundred ways to take revenge. You don’t have to be like you, be timid, and leave room, so that you will only be caught by the enemy.”

Cheng Mo seemed to be stunned, and then lost, "I have never had the courage to break the boat like you."

"You have, as long as you figure out what you really want and what you are afraid of losing." Lu Weimang always spoke sharply when facing his own people.When you don't want to go around in circles with people, you won't leave room for talking.

"I'll think about it carefully." After Cheng Mo finished speaking, he got up in a daze and dragged Xiao Jin out. "Brother, you just left? Tell sister Weimang clearly, you are not as despicable as she said, sister Weimang, brother is a good person, and Huo Hou, my brother is the best brother in the world!"

No one spoke up, so Xiao Jin was dragged out of the Lu residence by his elder brother Cheng Mo.

In the lobby, without the Cheng family, the atmosphere became more solemn.Lin Chen couldn't bear it, and couldn't help but want to explain what happened today, but was stopped by Lu Weimang's eyes.

"You go down first."

Huo Jing's deep voice sounded, and Lin Chen went out to be with Butler Lu as if he had been pardoned.

"Lu Weimang, you are always so clean-eyed, and you don't leave any room for what you say and do. As everyone knows, it's easy to be hated if you are so wanton."

Huo Jing's tone was teaching again, as if he met Lu Weimang for the first time when he returned to the capital.

Lu Weimang laughed at himself, "They are not others, they are my short-term family members. If I can treat them as ordinary people, it will show that I am really in the moment. I originally wanted to bear it and stay away. But I overestimated my endurance, watching them pretend to be a fool in front of me, I can't bear this grievance."

Lu Weimang looked at Huo Jing in front of him, "Unless you want to reveal your purpose and actions, don't explain your superficial actions to me. I can understand it for a while. If you explain too much, your patience will run out."

Looking at Lu Weimang's firm eyes, Huo Jing smiled wryly, stood up and walked to Lu Weimang's side, raised his hand, and touched Lu Weimang's head, "You are so sensitive, what can you do in the future? There are so many people of all kinds in this world , isn't it hard work?"

Lu Weimang's eyes were sore, "No way, it's natural."

"Tell me, should I just stretch it out and make you feel uncomfortable for a few days?"

Huo Jing looked at the sad and wronged but stubborn little girl after talking with Cheng Mo.

How can you not be sad?After all, it was the one who saved her life when she was most helpless.How can you not be wronged?Treated like a fool by someone who is cherished like family.And so stubborn, obviously he was the one who was hurt, but he had a tough showdown, making those two people who hurt him seem helpless, Lu Weimang was aggressive.

"I don't feel bad."

Lu Weimang told the truth.

Huo Jing couldn't help pinching Lu Weimang's fleshy cheeks, "You can just deal with others calmly, I'm your fiance, so what's wrong with you jumping around and questioning me right now."

Lu Weimang shook his head, "I can talk about Po Chengmo, but I can't ask him why he treats me like this. I'm such a coward who has no confidence."

"What about me? Can't you ask me?"

"I know you have reasons and difficulties."

"Cheng Mo also has difficulties, right? So you don't want to listen to the explanation, you want to hear the difficulties, right? You don't show weakness to me and question me, but you want me to take the initiative to tell you the difficulties. Isn't this another kind of confidence?"

Lu Weimang blushed, being said by Huo Jing, he was a bit willful.

"Then what do you say?"

Huo Jing, "Say."
