Chapter 216: The Frustrated Li Jiaqing and His Son



“I feel like it’s not as simple as it seems. It’s unlikely that Li Jiaqing was the only one behind this incident. There might be someone else backing him, but he refuses to confess and we have no other evidence, so there’s nothing we can do,” Ouyang Feifei glanced at Luo Ziling and then at Ouyang Huihui. In front of Luo Ziling, she warned, “Huihui, after everything that’s happened, you need to learn your lesson and stop causing trouble.”

“Sister, I get it,” Ouyang Huihui pouted a bit sulkily but did not dare to defy Ouyang Feifei’s wishes.

Hearing Ouyang Feifei’s words, Luo Ziling immediately thought of Lu Weiguang. He suspected that these two might have colluded to target him.

But that was just his guess, without any evidence.

Ouyang Feifei also said there was no evidence of anyone else involved in the incident, so he didn’t say anything further.

Still, he sincerely thanked Ouyang Feifei. Although the incidents were largely caused by Ouyang Huihui, Ouyang Feifei had earnestly helped him. Luo Ziling, who believed in acknowledging favors, took the opportunity to express his gratitude.

After a short while, the dinner Wang Qing had ordered arrived at the office.

The dinner was extravagant, with all dishes prepared by a chef.

Ouyang Feifei often ordered meals in the office, so she had a designated chef to cook for her.

Ouyang Huihui and Ouyang Feifei were both modest and elegant eaters. Luo Ziling, starving, restrained himself for a bit but then, ignoring their elegance, began to eat heartily.

To be honest, eating with Ouyang Feifei didn’t feel particularly special because the way she ate was too beautiful, too elegant, making Luo Ziling feel pressured, as if he were a country bumpkin.

Plus, she didn’t like to talk during meals, which Luo Ziling found a bit boring.

But, out of concern for face, he didn’t show it.

While Luo Ziling was dining with Ouyang Feifei and Ouyang Huihui, not far from Lingyun Building, in a luxurious private room of a five-star hotel, several men were sitting together having a meal.

One of them was Lu Weiguang, another was Li Jiaqing, and seated at the head of the table was Li Jiaqing’s father, Li Zhengcheng.

However, the mood among these men was rather dismal.

“Mr. Li, Jiaqing, I’m really sorry, I didn’t expect things to turn out this way,” Lu Weiguang stood up, raising his glass to Li Zhengcheng and Li Jiaqing, “I couldn’t imagine that kid had such a powerful background, that Ouyang Feifei would personally come to his defense. This incident has caused your family a tremendous loss, but rest assured, our Lu Family will take full responsibility for all your losses.”

Li Zhengcheng remained seated and did not raise his glass, merely looking indifferently at Lu Weiguang, “We are pretty much ruined now, we can’t even stand our ground in Yanjing anymore, how will you take full responsibility?”

Li Zhengcheng was filled with rage. He knew that Li Dongjun had previously gotten into trouble with Luo Ziling and ended up paying a large sum of money, almost going bankrupt. He couldn’t believe his own son would provoke the same person, forcing them to make unbearable reparations until Ouyang Feifei’s forgiveness was procured. Unable to establish themselves in Yanjing any longer, they had to leave. Li Jiaqing was also forced to take a leave of absence from Yan University.

All of these changes were the result of petty rivalry among the youth, and it made Li Jiacheng want to stab his son to death in his heart.

A lifetime’s hard-earned achievements were lost in an instant.

What infuriated him even more was that the instigator of this incident was not his own son, but another person. His son was merely used as a pawn and ended up bearing a undeserved calamity.

It was not something they could bear, nor something they wished to bear. Therefore, after finding out the truth, he strongly demanded that his son lure Lu Weiguang out, so that the scion of the Lu Family could personally confront the younger mistress of the Ouyang Family.

He was aware of the power of the Lu Family; although it was not among the top echelons in Yanjing, it was still an entity many looked up to.

If the Lu Family chose to engage in open conflict with the Ouyang Family, they obviously wouldn’t stand a chance, but if a more powerful family were willing to back the Lu Family, then the Ouyang Family might not come out on top.

Li Zhengcheng knew that the Lu Family had the backing of another major family in Yanjing, the Yang Family, which was one of the oldest families in Huaxia, an entity most Huaxia people looked up to. The Ouyang Family might not be inferior in terms of financial power, but they were several streets behind the Yang Family in political influence.

In the strife between wealthy families, their lesser clan would undoubtedly be crushed if involved.

But Lu Weiguang came to him, hoping they could withstand this incident, and assured them that the Lu Family would bear all the losses they suffered.

Lu Weiguang’s father, Lu Lianda, holding a significant position in a ministry, also personally called him, outlined the stakes, and promised to compensate for all their losses. In the end, Li Zhengcheng was forced to agree to Li Jiaqing taking all the blame.

Today, Lu Weiguang had invited them to dinner at a hotel to express his apologies and once again promised compensation, but this still left Li Zhengcheng dissatisfied. Anyone in his situation would feel anger and discontent.

“Tomorrow, I will arrange to deposit sixty million into your account. Once you arrive in Yangcheng, everything will be arranged for you. If all goes well, your days in Yangcheng will certainly be better than in Yanjing,” Lu Weiguang said, ignoring Li Zhengcheng’s anger and raising his glass with a smile, “I was rash this time, please forgive us.”

Hearing Lu Weiguang say this, Li Zhengcheng felt somewhat relieved and raised his glass to clink with Lu Weiguang’s, downing it in one gulp.

During the meal, Lu Weiguang kept urging them to drink and repeatedly promised that this incident would leave no lingering consequences and that Ouyang Feifei and Luo Ziling would no longer pursue the matter.

Li Zhengcheng actually didn’t understand the Lu Family’s attitude towards this affair – it was a childish squabble, yet Lu Lianda was willing to pay such a steep price to settle it.

Why he was willing to offer so many benefits to let Li Jiaqing bear the responsibility alone, Li Zhengcheng couldn’t fathom.

Of course, Li Jiaqing suffered the biggest hit; he couldn’t understand why things had become so serious.

What depressed him the most was that he was forced to withdraw from Yan University and transfer to Yangcheng University to study.

Even though Yangcheng University was also a top-tier institution, how could it compare to Yan University? He was born and bred in Yanjing; the idea of moving to Yangcheng was truly unwilling. However, he had been so rattled recently that he dared not say anything.

To the surprise of Li Zhengcheng and his son Li Jiaqing, after a few rounds of drinks, Lu Lianda also came over to toast and apologize to them.

Lu Lianda made a promise right there about the compensation the Lu Family was willing to provide and comforted them, after which Li Zhengcheng and Li Jiaqing fully accepted the arrangement of the Lu Family.

“In the future, we hope Minister Lu will continue to look after us,” said Li Zhengcheng, as he and Li Jiaqing were leaving, directly making this request.

Lu Lianda readily agreed, expressing that he would definitely secure a bright future for the Li Family.
