Chapter 94: He Yousi
On this day, not only were the Lu family, He Yaobai, and He Yaoxing present, even He Yousi, who had not appeared in public for a long time, was present.
He Yousi was the emperor behind the He family in the imperial capital. With him around, even old madam Lu would have to avoid the heat.
Didn’t He Yousi not care about the affairs of the world?
Back then, when He Yaobai disguised He Yaoxing as the daughter of the He family and forced the Lu family to continue the engagement, He Yousi did not even appear!
Moreover, according to their internal information, He Yousi’s health was not good and he did not have many years left to live. They even thought that He Yaobai had secretly controlled He Yousi.
However…
Old Madam Lu and Lu Qingzhuo looked at He Yousi, who had appeared at the Lu residence, and their eyes were filled with astonishment.
He Yousi was in his forties or fifties, but his face and figure were well maintained. His smooth skin had almost no wrinkles.
His skin was pale, as if he had not seen the sun all year round. His figure was also relatively thin and frail. His slender fingers held a walking stick with a dragon’s head. The walking stick was polished, and the craftsmanship was exquisite. It looked expensive.
Perhaps it was because he did not go out often, but the meticulous maintenance made his skin look very good. His dark eyebrows, deep pupils, high nose bridge, and lips were a bloodless pink color, his frail and overly handsome face made him look like he was only in his early thirties. Only his pair of worldly-wise eyes could make people believe that he was almost fifty years old.
“Yousi,” Old madam Lu called out to him.
“Old madam.” He Yousi nodded at her.
“How’s your health recently?” Old Madam Lu asked.
She knew about He Yousi’s health condition and the reason why his health suddenly deteriorated. Although the He family and the Lu family had been fighting openly and secretly ever since He Yaobai took over, she had a very good feeling about He Yousi. To her, He Yousi was just an ordinary junior.
Therefore, when she saw how weak he was, old madam Lu could not help but express some concern.
“Thank you for your concern, Old Madam Lu. I’m fine,” He Yousi approached old madam Lu and replied respectfully.
In a wealthy family, morals and manners were paramount. Old Madam Lu was an elder, so there was no reason for him to let the elders take the initiative to come to him. Therefore, he naturally walked up to old madam Lu.
“I heard that Qingzhuo found his son, so I came to take a look.”
He Yousi actually knew what He Yaobai had done to the Lu family. However, the competition in the business world was cruel to begin with, and he had run out of steam. As long as He Yaobai did things that were good for the He family, he usually wouldn’t ask too much.
However, when he heard that Lu Qingzhuo suddenly had a son and broke the plan of his adopted son, he couldn’t help but be curious and came to take a look.
After all, he was very satisfied with He Yaobai.
Ever since He Yaobai took over the He family, he had been managing the He family in an orderly manner. It was even better than when he was in charge of the He family.
He understood his adopted son’s plan. Therefore, when he saw that his adopted son’s plan was about to succeed, it was impossible for him to continue to watch coldly from the sidelines.
Therefore, he came today as a witness and also to support He Yaobai.
“Mm, it’s a pity that the mother and son have been separated from us for five years.” Old Madam Lu was very clear in her heart, but it was not good to expose him. She could only sigh at the right time.
She and Lu Qingzhuo looked at each other and were a little anxious.
Once He Yousi came, there would be big trouble!
It was already difficult to deal with the people from the Lu family. If He Yousi also joined in…
Old Madam Lu carefully went through the procedure in her mind again.
There was no need to be afraid of the test on the spot. After all, the test also required time. They had already found someone to make preparations in advance. As long as nothing unexpected happened, it was still possible for the test to succeed. What they were afraid of was..
“Paternity test is a important atter. The He and Lu families are on good terms. I came today with an appraiser from an international authority. I can definitely guarantee the authenticity of the test results and ensure that the Lu family’s bloodline is returned to its rightful place.”
As expected, He Yousi said it the next second.
This was undoubtedly the worst outcome.
There were too many uncertainties from being proactive to being passive!
