“Lu Mingyou.”

Lu Youwei raised his head and looked at Old Madam Lu.

From his point of view, Old Madam Lu was arrogant and noble, just like before. The way she looked at him was as if he was still the little errand boy who used to run errands behind his big brother. This made Lu Youwei extremely frustrated.

The Lu family had very few people, and there were very few direct descendants. As a side branch, they were born to serve the direct descendants. Even if they were better than the direct descendants, they would always be one head lower than the direct descendants.

He waited and waited until his big brother died. He thought that he could replace him, but in the end, his big brother’s wife fan gave all the power to Lu Mingyou!

Who was Lu Mingyou? ! She was just a married wife. Even if she had the Lu surname, it was someone else’s blood that flowed inside her. What right did she have to be the person in charge of the Lu family? !

What right did she have — to look down on him? !

“Third cousin came to visit. Is there something wrong?” Old Madam Lu asked.

“Why are you asking when you already know? !” Lu Youwei felt tired and his mood became even more irritable. “I want Lu Qingzhuo to redo the paternity test!”

“Are you suspecting Shouxin’s bloodline?” Old Madam Lu came down from the second floor. Anger could be seen on her well-maintained face, “When the paternity test was done, the Lu family and the He family of the capital were all present. After that, they even held a press conference to publicly announce Shouxin’s identity. Why are you asking him to do another paternity test? !”

The first test was to admit Lu Shouxin back to his ancestors. If a second test was to be done, it would be casting doubts on Lu Shouxin’s identity, leading to speculations from the outside world. If his identity was not recognized, it would only hurt Lu Shouxin, a child!

How could she allow the descendants of the Lu family to suffer such unnecessary humiliation! !

“True gold is not afraid of fire. If he is really a child of the Lu family, he won’t be afraid even after a few more tests.” Of course, Lu Youwei knew the concerns at hand, but he would not consider for Lu Shouxin. He was thinking about his family, his children and grandchildren!

“Doing blood tests like child play will damage the Lu family’s prestige,” Old Madam Lu said.

“Compared to confusing the Lu family’s bloodline, the Lu family’s prestige is not worth mentioning,” Lu Youwei said. “Moreover, there are rumors everywhere that Lu Qingzhuo’s newly married wife and the young master of the Gu family in Rong city have an ambiguous relationship. Their two families once had a marriage contract. Perhaps the child is Gu Zimu’s!”

“How dare you!” Old Madam Lu flew into a rage.

“This is not what I said, it’s what the people outside said.” Lu Youwei shrugged. “You can shut my mouth, but you can’t shut the mouths of the people outside. If you want to convince the public, you have to do a second paternity test!”

Old Madam Lu did not say anything.

“If you don’t agree, I can’t do anything about it. Anyway, I can’t control the mouths of others. Although Lu Shouxin is an honorable young master in the Lu family, in the mouths of outsiders, I’m afraid he will be a bastard child for the rest of his life!”

“Li Sheng, send the guest out!”

Old Madam Lu couldn’t stand his foul language, so she ordered him to leave.

She knew Lu Shouxin’s true identity very well. He couldn’t be Lu Qingzhuo’s child, and she wouldn’t allow Lu Youwei to pester him and force him to do a second paternity test.

This wasn’t just for the Lu family, but also for Lu Shouxin himself!

He was still a child…

Old Madam Lu regretted it.

If she had known this day would come, she would never have dragged He Youran and her son into the Lu family’s internal strife.

Right now, all she could do was not back down. At the same time, she hoped that He Youran and Lu Qingzhuo would work hard.. Once they had the true bloodline of the Lu family, even if there were ten more Lu Youwei, they wouldn’t be able to shake them in the slightest!
