Chapter 231 Planning to Go Abroad
Chapter 231 Planning to Go Abroad
Lu Mingxuan spent an hour returning to Yushan. When he arrived, he found that Lu Xinjun's car was also parked in the square at the main entrance.
The courtyard gate opened easily with a gentle push, and Lu Mingxuan walked in.
Because he was wearing Oxford shoes, he walked without making a sound. When he reached the door, he was stunned by a single sentence.
“Xinjun, I never expected Qiao Hongwei to do something like this? She's really foolish. Qiao Wei is yours…”
"Dad! Keep your voice down."
Lu Xinjun promptly stopped Lu Wenguang from continuing.
Lu Mingxuan began to suspect something when he heard the conversation between the father and son in the living room. Why did his father interrupt his grandfather?
Meanwhile, Yunmiao, who was in the kitchen, also heard these words. She clutched her chest, feeling as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
"Could it be that Xiao Xuan isn't Lu Xinjun and Qiao Hongwei's child? If not, could he be the child from back then?"
The birthmark on Lu Mingxuan's chest reappeared in front of her. Hearing the conversation between the father and son in the living room shift to other topics, Yun Miao decided to ask her master about it after Lu Xinjun left.
Lu Mingxuan stood at the door for a moment, then pushed it open.
"Xiao Xuan? You're back too."
When Lu Xinjun saw Lu Mingxuan, he was clearly taken aback. He was unsure whether he had heard what they had just said.
"Dad, Grandpa, I want to go abroad!"
Lu Mingxuan had a thought of escaping. If Qiao Hongwei insisted on making him marry Qiao Wei, then he would just go abroad.
"Go abroad? Why do you want to go abroad?"
Lu Xinjun's first thought was about the patents held by Lu Mingxuan, fearing that they would be sold after he went abroad.
"Don't you know why you're going abroad?"
Before Lu Mingxuan could answer, Lu Wenguang angrily retorted to his son.
"Is it because of Weiwei?"
Lu Xinjun didn't want Lu Mingxuan to go abroad, but he also wanted him to marry Qiao Wei. Clearly, he could only choose one of the two.
"Yes! I will not marry Qiao Wei. Dad, did you go to see Song Qiao today?"
Lu Xinjun lowered his head in front of Lu Wenguang. He dared not admit it or object, because if he did, Lu Wenguang would not let him off the hook.
"I went to see Song Qiao; your mother asked me to go."
Lu Xinjun shifted the blame onto Qiao Hongwei, which was the best arrangement for him.
"You just go because Qiao Hongwei tells you to? Don't you know Xiao Xuan likes Song Qiao?"
After a barrage of criticism, Lu Wenguang looked at Lu Mingxuan across from him and said, "Xiao Xuan, Grandpa advised you to stay. As for Qiao Wei wanting to marry you, Grandpa doesn't agree. Grandpa still hopes you and Song Qiao will be together."
“But Song Qiao has already rejected me. She said she wants to withdraw,” Lu Mingxuan explained.
Upon hearing this, Lu Wenguang turned around and looked at Lu Xinjun with unprecedented anger in his eyes: "You spineless wretch, you just do whatever your wife tells you to do?"
"Dad, I have no choice. Hongwei comes to the hospital to make trouble every day. How can I work if I don't give in?"
Hearing this, Lu Wenguang got angry and said, "Tell her that I don't agree with her tying Qiao Wei and Xiao Xuan together. Qiao Wei is not good enough for my grandson."
As he said this, Lu Wenguang glanced at Lu Mingxuan.
"Xiao Xuan, you'd better not go abroad. I'll talk to your mother about your marriage with Weiwei. If you still like Song Qiao, I'll agree to let you two be together."
Upon hearing this, Lu Mingxuan gave Lu Xinjun a cold look: "Afraid I'll sell the patent when I go abroad? You're not going to keep it for you?"
Lu Wenguang looked puzzled when he heard this: "What patent?"
Now that things had come to this, Lu Mingxuan no longer wanted to hide it from his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, over the years I have been researching and developing drugs to prevent cancer and ALS abroad, and I have also applied for patents. I have given them all to my father. Do you want his hospital to catch up with China in less than ten years?"
Lu Wenguang looked at Lu Xinjun in astonishment: "So Xiao Xuan did all this for you? As his father, how could you treat him like this? How could I have given birth to a son like you?"
Lu Xinjun hadn't expected Lu Mingxuan to tell the old man about this, and his eyes were filled with resentment: "Didn't you say you wouldn't tell anyone?"
“Is Grandpa just anyone? He’s my grandpa. Besides, I don’t think I’ll give you my patent after I go abroad.”
"You'd better not go abroad!"
Before Lu Mingxuan could finish speaking, Lu Xinjun interrupted.
"Whether I go abroad or not is my own decision. Go back and tell my mom that I won't agree to marry Qiao Wei. If she wants to find someone else to take over her boyfriend, she can find someone else. I'm not doing it!"
“I know. I’ll go back and talk to your mother about this now. If she interferes with you and Song Qiao again, I’ll divorce her.”
Over the years, Qiao Hongwei had kept it a secret from him, changing his daughter's body to a son's. Now that Qiao Wei was pregnant, she was trying to morally blackmail Lu Mingxuan, which he felt was unfair.
"Xiao Xuan, I'll call Song Qiao and apologize on my behalf!"
"I won't fight. You can fight if you want. Song Qiao doesn't trust me anymore."
In order to persuade Lu Mingxuan to stay, Lu Xinjun agreed in front of Lu Wenguang: "I'll make this call!"
In front of Lu Mingxuan, Lu Xinjun dialed Song Qiao's number.
Seeing that it was Lu Xinjun's number again, Song Qiao answered the call.
"Hey! Dean Lu, I've already told Lu Mingxuan that we won't have any more contact. Don't worry."
Hearing Song Qiao's heartbroken words, Lu Xinjun quickly said, "Song Qiao, it was my fault. I shouldn't have gone to find you. What I wanted to tell you is that Xiao Xuan is in great pain leaving you. Please give him a chance."
It was Lu Xinjun who forbade her from associating with Lu Mingxuan, but now it's him who's forcing her to associate with him. Song Qiao was furious when she heard this.
"Dean Lu, what do you take me, Song Qiao, for? I've already told you, I've broken up with Lu Mingxuan. Don't call me anymore."
After saying this, Song Qiao decisively ended the call.
Lu Wenguang also overheard their conversation and looked up at Lu Mingxuan: "Since this is all because of you, I think you should go to Song Qiao. When are you two getting your marriage certificate? Ask her for her opinion."
Lu Mingxuan nodded when he heard his grandfather's words. He regretted his impulsive decision to agree to Song Qiao's request to leave the city construction company gate.
"Grandpa, I'm going back to Jiangcheng now."
“I’ll go back with you.”
Lu Xinjun also stood up and walked out of the living room with Lu Mingxuan.
Seeing the father and son leave together, Yunmiao came out of the kitchen.
"Master, I want to ask you something. Was Xiao Xuan found?"
Lu Wenguang looked at Yun Miao seriously: "Do you suspect that Mingxuan is your child?"
Seeing Yun Miao nod, Lu Wenguang gave her a few strands of hair: "We'll go to the hospital this afternoon for a paternity test. If Xiao Xuan is that child, I'll help you identify him."
Yunmiao's eyes widened: "Master, could it be that Xiaoxuan really isn't Brother Xinjun's biological son?"
"Yes! I only found out today that Qiao Hongwei mistakenly thought that my wife and I liked grandsons, so he switched the children. Qiao Wei is their daughter."
