Chapter 102 - Lu Yin Ze (III) (1/2)

Old Lu blamed himself for this.

If he had taken Lu Yin Ze earlier from that evil man despite the agreement, Lu Yin Ze would not suffer for ten years.

What a young child without a loving mother, father, or brother on his side could do?

Just thinking about it makes Old Lu's heartache and all life in his body was drained.

'Sasha. '

Old Lu was sitting on his bed. He was holding the picture of him and his daughter, Sasha Lu.

Now that Lu Yin Ze was on his side, he would spoil him. He would give the best of everything to him. Even he befriended a Xiong, a Tang, or a Guan, he doesn't care. Even he fell to a Xiong, he would talk it out with the tiger Xiong.

He would put Lu Yin Ze first even in business. What he only wishes for Lu Yin Ze was for him to live his life in satisfaction. Even Lu Yin Ze would not work, he would still give him the inheritance. Of course, he would prepare for Lu Yin Ze's people who would look and cultivate for the Lu Empire.

For that older brother of his, Old Lu did not consider him as his grandchild. That man was a stranger to him even they have the same surname Lu. That ungrateful child chose that bastard and was following that bastard's steps.

Old Lu's broken heart for this grandson was concealed by despising him.

******

Lu Yin Ze entered his room.

His every step was heavy and the shadow behind him was like a monster that never leaves him.

He went to his bedroom then straight to the balcony.

The sun had settled already and darkness was rapidly enveloping the sky. Like how he was feeling, grief and desolation were eating his being.

Once again, life seems so bleak.

Lu Yin Ze was shaking inside. He turned around and sat on the bench. His knees were losing strength. He wanted to lock himself in the room. But he forced himself to calm down and think straight in the balcony. He doesn't want to be that boy who lives in the hospital. Always scared and alone.

Lu Yin Ze felt a hard thing when he sat. With shaking hands he took the book that he left in the balcony.

To put his mind at ease and to calm down he read the book even though he finished it already.

After calming himself for two hours, he closed the book.

He did not finish it but it's enough since he was calm and sound.

Like the protagonist, he also wants to know what he existed for. Why he had to suffer those things? What are his destinations?

He struggled so much to live. Because as long as he was alive, those two evil men would not be able to sleep peacefully at night.

He was like a thorn to their eyes.

He knew who they are and what they did eight years ago. He promised himself at that hospital that he would gather much evidence to put them into prison.

He had those bits of puzzles in his sleeves. Right now, he had to look more. He had to secure them safely and use them wisely to give them a huge blow.

But right now, he was still powerless.

Even he was in the Old Lu's side, he was nothing.

That's why those two had not made a move yet.

Lu Yin Ze knew that there are people who were following him and watching him like a hawk. Even in this mansion, there are spies from his brother and father.

He could only act like a boy who wants to live a normal life.

But why?

Why he has to be scared?

He was not in that hospital anymore. He was freed. They might be watching but they can't stop him. They can't even stop him from befriending a Xiong.

So he should stop stalling time and move hastily.

As time passed, those two evil men would just grow their power. Justice would be harder and harder to achieve.

He would be left behind and soon he would just be a puppet for them.

Lu Yin Ze was afraid of these. When Old Lu left the world, there's no doubt that he would inherit the Lu empire.

Once he has it, those two would show up at the door. They would smile and laugh and would control him like before.

In the end, they still won.

Lu Yin Ze knew of these since he stepped on this mansion. He knew there's no way that his evil father would allow him to live beside Old Lu so easily. He was like a time bomb for his father. He knew their secrets. But his father and brother knew of him as well.

He was a guy that would be easily shaken by the mention of the two of them.

A coward.
