Lu Xia did not go back to school in the afternoon. Instead, she wandered around for a while before returning home.
The house was in a mess when she arrived. It was as if a world war had just happened.
He Xiaoman was the only one in the huge house. She was slumped on the couch and looked extremely haggard. She no longer looked like an elegant lady. She did not even react when her daughter entered the house.
Lu Xia put down her designer bag and glanced at He Xiaoman. Then she went to pour a glass of water and handed it to her. "Mom."
He Xiaoman's eyes were listless. After some time, she finally focused on Lu Xia. She waved her hand and knocked over the glass of water. "Why did you come back?"
The glass fell on the floor with a sharp shattering sound. Water and glass shards splattered everywhere.
Lu Xia lowered her eyes and did not say a word. She withdrew her hand and bent down to pick up the glass shards on the floor before throwing them into the dustbin.
He Xiaoman became even angrier when Lu Xia remained silent. However, a thought crossed her mind and she suppressed her anger. She got up and pulled Lu Xia up. "Xiaxia, did you beg Huo Tingrui?"
Lu Xia inhaled deeply. Instead of answering her question, she asked. "What happened? Why did he suddenly target Lu Corporation?"
"It's your dad's fault. He got someone to take a photo of Huo Yao with that official and sent it to the news agency. Then, the news agency posted it online... Who knew that Huo Tingrui would not let us off the hook?" He Xiaoman's voice was filled with anger as she spoke.
How could Lu Xia not understand the whole story after hearing it?
She had assumed that what happened online last night had nothing to do with her family. However, it turned out that her father was the one who posted the photos.
Given Huo Tingrui's character, it was no wonder that he would target Lu Corporation. Moreover, Fang Chen was also involved...
Lu Xia pressed her forehead. "Dad must be crazy. How dare he send out all kinds of photos? Of course Lu Corporation is doomed! "
"That's why I asked you to beg Huo Tingrui. Beg him to let us off the hook. As long as he relents, Lu Corporation can still be saved..." shouted He Xiaoman.
Lu Xia noticed that her mother was still clueless about what had happened and how serious the photos were. She could not help shaking her head mockingly. "Mom, don't be naive. Huo Tingrui isn't the one who wants Lu Corporation to be destroyed. It's the people in the city hall."
Would ordinary people dare to touch the scandal of the top leader? She had no idea what her father was thinking!
"Isn't it just a few photos? How did the people from the City Hall get involved … Besides, your dad said that he sent them anonymously, so it's impossible for them to trace it back to our Lu Family! "He Xiaoman said in a low voice.
Lu Xia pursed her lips. "Do you think I can't find you just because you are anonymous? The person in the photo is the city's top official. Do you think it's impossible to investigate someone in his position? "
Didn't he know who he had offended?
"First in command?" He Xiaoman was stunned.
She had thought that her husband's photos were of ordinary officials.
If they had really offended the top official... then it made sense that Lu Corporation was suddenly reported and closed down today.
He Xiaoman suddenly stumbled and fell on the couch. A moment later, she recalled something and raised her head to look at Lu Xia. She said hurriedly, "Then beg Huo Yao. Beg her. She is close to Secretary Lin. As long as she is willing to do it, Lu Corporation might still have a chance."
