Chapter 733 Pay the price
After Zhong Nianyao left, only Lu Yichen and Old Man Lu were left in the living room.

For a moment, neither of them spoke first, and the living room fell into silence.

Lu Yichen sat there quietly. He didn't even look at Mr. Lu, nor did he speak. His face was silent, as if he didn't care about anything.

In fact, he really didn't care. If Zhong Nianyao hadn't come here today, he wouldn't have appeared here.

On the other hand, Mr. Lu was not so calm. He was very nervous at the moment. Lu Yichen didn't speak, and he didn't know how to speak.

He had originally thought of asking Zhong Nianyao to leave, as he and Lu Yichen were easy to talk to. But now that there were only the two of them, he didn't know how to start the conversation.

Lu Yichen had been silent, so Old Man Lu had no choice but to speak first, "Yichen, since you already know your life experience, let me tell you about your parents today! Otherwise, you will hear some nonsense from other people and cause misunderstandings between us, which would be bad."

"No need." Lu Yichen raised his eyes, and his cold eyes fell on Mr. Lu. "Besides, do you really think there is a misunderstanding between us?"

"Yichen." Mr. Lu was a little anxious, "What happened back then was really not what you thought. I——"

"Lu Kun." Lu Yichen called out Grandpa Lu's name directly, "Don't think of treating me like a fool. I have already found out everything that happened back then. I even know everything about my parents' death."

"There is no misunderstanding between us, and there is no need for you to explain. To be honest, what exists between us should be a blood feud!"

"No, I didn't kill your parents." Mr. Lu quickly explained, "Your parents were killed by those drug lords. It had nothing to do with me. Yes, I implicated them. But this was really just an accident. The drug lord's leader has been arrested. We didn't expect that those who escaped would go looking for your parents."

When he said this, Mr. Lu's eyes turned red and he became emotional, "Yichen, I am sorry for you. But what happened back then was indeed an accident."

"A surprise?" Lu Yichen looked at Mr. Lu, his expression unchanged. "For so many years, you have been using this excuse to comfort yourself! Have you deceived yourself?"

"Yichen, why don't you want to believe me?" Mr. Lu looked heartbroken. "Don't you really understand how I have treated you over the years?"

"Well, are you willing to swear on your descendants?" Lu Yichen looked at Mr. Lu sarcastically, "Swear that what happened to my parents was really an accident, and you didn't interfere in it just to seize my family's property. Swear that you really treated me as your own son over the years."

"If what you said is a lie, then all your ancestors and descendants will suffer retribution, your family will be destroyed, and you will have no descendants."

As soon as such a vicious oath came out, Mr. Lu froze there. He opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he couldn't say anything, let alone swear.

The older people get, the more they believe in oaths, especially those who have done something wrong.

Mr. Lu was like this. He wanted to swear, but he was afraid that the oath would really come true. Looking at Mr. Lu's appearance, Lu Yichen had a mocking smile on his face, "What? You can't say it, right?"

"Lu Kun, you are really cruel! My biological parents saved your life. But in the end, you caused them to be killed by those drug lords who escaped the net. How can a person like you still have the nerve to live in this world?"

Listening to Lu Yichen's words, Mr. Lu fell into a state of dejection. He didn't know what to say, but he still spoke, "You... When did you know it?"

He didn't expect that Lu Yichen already knew everything that happened that year. So, everything he said now was just like a clown in front of Lu Yichen.

"It's not important." Lu Yichen leaned back, his face expressionless, "I know everything you've ever done. So what? You haven't formally answered my question yet."

Things have come to this point, and Mr. Lu has nothing to hide. His eyes are red and his face is full of guilt.

"Yichen, what happened back then was all my fault. I was bewildered for a moment. I will accept any punishment you want to give me."

Lu Yichen raised his head and looked around the living room before looking at Mr. Lu. He continued, "Without our family's money, you would not have been able to climb to such a high position. You harmed my parents, but it made you successful in life. Lu Kun, you are really good at this!"

Mr. Lu took a deep breath, looked at Lu Yichen, and said, "Yichen, now that you know all the truth, how do you want to deal with me now?"

"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth." Lu Yichen said indifferently, "You killed my parents, but your parents are no longer with us, so if there is really hatred, who do you think I should blame? Don't you have three sons? How about putting the blame on them?"

"Do not--"

Mr. Lu spoke anxiously, and then said, "Yi Chen, it's all my fault. You can do whatever you want to me, but please let the others go! Especially your brothers, they are all unaware of it. When the incident happened, they were just ignorant children!"

"If you don't want me to blame them, that's fine!"

Lu Yichen nodded, looking nonchalant, as if he was just talking about a trivial matter.

Hearing this, Mr. Lu breathed a sigh of relief. However, Lu Yichen's next words made him feel relieved again.

"Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor," Lu Yichen continued, "As long as you are willing to pay the price for it, then they will naturally be fine. Otherwise--"

When he said this, Lu Yichen's tone became more serious, "Don't blame me for being rude when the time comes. You probably don't want to see my methods."

Mr. Lu was shocked, "What price will I have to pay?"
