Not long after Lu Sheng walked out of the neighborhood, Wang Ruojing followed closely behind him.
"Are we going to the other side?"
"Of course." Lu Sheng nodded.
Wang Yumin's words and actions had already shown the severity of the situation.
The new family and the old family, which was more important was obvious at a glance.
"If you want to go to your mother's side … I think you don't have to go." Wang Ruojing stopped in her tracks.
Lu Sheng also stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked at her.
Wang Ruojing pointed at a coffee shop not far away.
Through the glass window of the coffee shop, an old woman with white hair stood up from afar and looked in Lu Sheng's direction.
"I called in advance, she's been waiting here for a long time." Wang Ruojing shrugged. "Before you came, I've been talking to her about you."
Lu Sheng recognized the old lady at a glance. He had seen her in the information he had obtained.
She was Wang Mu's birth mother.
Compared to his ordinary father, Wang Yumin, his mother's life was slightly more complicated.
Although she had reorganized her family, she was different from Wang Yumin. Her newborn son died prematurely. Later, due to an accident, she and her current husband lost their fertility.
In other words, her only son was Wang Mu.
Lu Sheng looked at Wang Mu's mother's nervous and uneasy expression from afar. After a moment of silence.
"Let's go. Since we're here, let's have a chat."
Wang Ruojing nodded quickly.
The two of them walked into the coffee shop one after the other.
They walked along the aisle and came to Wang Mu's mother's table.
"Jingjing … you … you're here …?!" Wang Mu's mother was an old woman dressed in expensive clothes. She seemed to be living a better life than Wang Yumin. She just looked a little old. Maybe she hadn't been living a good life in the past few years.
Lu Sheng and Wang Ruojing sat down and each ordered a cup of coffee.
The three of them sat in silence. Wang Mu's mother held the coffee cup in her hands and lowered her head, not knowing what to say.
"How have you been all these years?" she asked in a low voice.
"I'm fine …" Lu Sheng nodded.
Wang Mu's mother, Zhou Ye, had been living a miserable life ever since they separated from the family.
Although her second husband was rich in money. However, the fact that she didn't have any children had always been the greatest pain in her heart.
Zhou Ye picked up his coffee and stared at Lu Sheng. He felt like he was staring at his first husband when he was young.
"Are you still willing to go with me?" Zhou Ye asked in a low voice.
"No, I'm just here to confirm something," Lu Sheng said calmly. "I don't want to regret it in the future."
"Regret?" Zhou Ye was stunned.
Lu Sheng didn't say anything else. He just picked up his coffee and took a sip.
The three of them remained silent.
Lu Sheng did not know what to say to Zhou Ye. Although she was Wang Mu's mother, she wasn't Lu Sheng's mother.
"Actually … this is all my fault …" Zhou Ye lowered his head and couldn't help but cry.
"Back then, why did we get a divorce? Why did Wang Yumin not acknowledge you at all … It's all my fault …"
She spoke in detail and gradually revealed the truth of the past that had been covered in dust for many years.
It turned out that back then, she and Wang Yumin had a happy and prosperous marriage. It was not bad.
However, later on, she went out to meet an online friend. In an accident, she got drunk and had sex with someone.
Later on, somehow, Wang Yumin found out about it.
Later on, Zhou Ye happened to be pregnant.
After their marriage lasted for a while, the child was born. Finally, the marriage could no longer be maintained and the two announced a divorce.
Although there was a genetic test, the child was indeed his.
However, Wang Yumin felt that his wife was not clean. Even if the child was his, a portion of the child's genes might contain other people's genes.
Later on, the two divorced because they didn't want children because of this reason.
Wang Yumin felt that the child was dirty, while Zhou Ye felt that the child was Wang Yumin's. She stayed by his side and looked like Wang Yumin, which was annoying.
Hence, the two of them didn't want Wang Mu.
This also caused Wang Mu's childhood to be very difficult.
Now that the truth had been revealed, Zhou Ye hoped that Wang Mu would change his mind and live with her with the mentality of atonement and the hope that she would not have any children. She hoped that Wang Mu would change his mind and live with her.
"I'm also alone now. My second husband … passed away a few years ago … leaving me alone … He doesn't have any relatives …" Zhou Ye lowered her head and said softly as she wiped away her tears.
"I have a general understanding of the situation. Let's leave it at that for today." Lu Sheng stood up slowly. "I'm already an independent adult now. It's not realistic to say that I want to go back to how I was before. Let's give everyone some time to consider and get used to it. "
He also saw through Wang Yumin and Zhou Ye.
The two of them were actually very selfish in nature. Otherwise, they wouldn't have deliberately abandoned their child who was only a few years old and married separately.
Now that Wang Yumin didn't want to acknowledge him and Zhou Ye wanted to acknowledge him, it was all for his own sake.
No wonder Wang Mu had developed such a strange and eccentric personality.
Ignoring the crying Zhou Ye, Lu Sheng walked out of the cafe. It was already noon outside.
The autumn and winter sun was cold and dull, just like the family relationship he had experienced with Wang Mu. There was no warmth.
After some thought, Lu Sheng pressed the speed dial button on his phone.
After two short waiting tones, the call went through.
"Master?" Wei Handong's voice came from the other side.
"Arrange the places for Wang Yumin and Zhou Ye …" Lu Sheng paused and looked back at Zhou Ye, who was still standing in the cafe and looking at him through the glass.
"Leave a place for them."
"Together with all the current family members?"
"Yes."
"Understood. Master, please take care. "Wei Handong also knew a little about Wang Mu's situation and comforted him in a low voice.
"Don't worry."
Lu Sheng hung up the phone. This arrangement could be considered as repaying the two of them for giving birth.
From now on, they would live their own lives.
He turned around and strode away.
Wang Ruojing hurried to catch up.
"Brother, where are you going now?" She hurried to catch up with him.
"Do you need something?" Lu Sheng looked at her and slowed down.
"No, just asking …" Wang Ruojing did not know why she cared so much about Wang Mu.
"Auntie Zhou … really wants to reunite with you. Can you give her some time …"
She could not help but persuade him.
"I'm doing this for her own good." Lu Sheng said faintly. "I have a big appetite. She can't afford to feed me."
"Huh??" Wang Ruojing did not understand what this had to do with a big appetite. No matter how big her appetite was, Auntie Zhou Ye was now a real rich woman with tens of millions in assets. How could she not afford to feed a big eater?
"Auntie Zhou is still rich. I don't think …"
"Do you see this shop?"
Suddenly, Lu Sheng stopped in his tracks and pointed at a huge noodle shop on the side of the street.
"What?"
"I want to eat at ten of these restaurants a day," Lu Sheng said, then turned around and left slowly.
“!!!??”
Wang Ruojing was stunned …
This was the city. A shop like this was worth at least a few million.
Eat at ten shops a day? That would be tens of millions?!
Lu Sheng was not lying.
What he was eating now were all highly concentrated nutrient solutions and blocks. In terms of value, it was not an exaggeration to say that he consumed tens of millions a day.
Not only him, but his core disciples who had reached a high realm also consumed a lot of food.
Ordinary families could not afford it.
For an ordinary person, the nutrient solution they consumed would burn a hole in their stomach after drinking it.
Because the concentration was too high. The pH level had increased to a ridiculous level.
Wang Ruojing came back to her senses and hurried to chase after Lu Sheng.
She had just gotten closer when she saw Lu Sheng turn around.
"Sorry for troubling you today. I have something to do, so I won't take you home. If you have any trouble, you can call me. "
"Eh …!!?" Wang Ruojing wanted to say something, but she saw Lu Sheng wave his hand. He took out a key and pressed it. A big black car parked by the road suddenly beeped.
She took a closer look. It was not a big car. It was a heavy armored car! There were still two missile launchers that had just been removed from the roof!
"…" Wang Ruojing's mouth was wide open. She watched blankly as Lu Sheng got on the car and drove further away. Her mind was in a daze.
…
…
After settling the matters at home, Lu Sheng returned to the headquarters and received a new request.
Baijun Castle had encountered a difficult opponent in the process of acquiring Scale Rock Enterprises. That was because he was now in charge of commercial acquisitions through the legal channels. According to Lu Sheng's arrangements, he had to complete every acquisition under the premise of abiding by the law.
Therefore, White County City had always abided by this principle. They used the huge network and funds of Nine Lives Hall in the Black, White, and Gray Paths to properly purchase other people's mining enterprises.
But this time, he had indeed met his match.
His opponent was the chairman of the board of directors of the Mining Cloud Group and also the general manager.
After a few rounds of fighting with Baijun Castle, his opponent was able to use all kinds of tricks to barely stay undefeated.
And now, this strong woman of the Mining Cloud Group had made a request to give up part of her Scale Rock Mining for free in exchange.
She wanted to meet Lu Sheng and use the Scale Rock Industry as a bargaining chip to cooperate with Wang Mu on a business deal.
Lu Sheng was quite curious.
Because he had learned from Baijun Castle that this strong woman was called Bai Songdie. She was a genius who was only 26 years old.
Most importantly, a few months ago, she was just a nameless ordinary university girl. She loved playing the piano, liked running, and had an outstanding appearance. She was still preparing to leave Planet Baija to study on another planet.
In the end, in just a few months, she had become the chairman and general manager of a large mining group.
Therefore, he decided to meet this person.
Because, according to this person's file, she was very similar to Su Qin and other members of the Lord Team.
The other party had schemed and offered so many benefits just to meet him. Lu Sheng had reason to believe that this woman definitely had some special purpose and means. She wanted to achieve a certain goal from him.
In fact, he was also very interested in these members of the Lord Team.
