Page 468 of Entangled with My Ex’s Uncle

Lu Cheng and Lu Nanxi stopped in front of them, saying they were there to report the death.

Mrs. Bai Senior sneered, "What relation was he to us that required his children to personally inform me?"

Lu Cheng said, "My father always felt guilty these past years because he was constantly thinking about Aunt Bai, which eventually led to his mental health issues."

Bai Dongyang couldn’t help but scoff, "Since he was thinking about her, how could he have fathered several children? Seems like someone couldn’t control his lower half, so spare me the sentiment here."

Lu Cheng said, "Chairman Bai, as someone who has watched them all these years, you should know best what happened between them. I believe Aunt Bai wouldn’t want to see Chi Yue still refusing to acknowledge him."

Bai Dongyang spat.

"It’s precisely because I know what happened between them that I’m even less willing for Chi Yue to be connected with your Lu Family in any way. Now that Lu Xuhui is gone, I won’t have to worry anymore. Hurry up and leave, don’t come here causing trouble; go back and send him off properly."

Lu Cheng didn’t move, "We saw Chi Yue before coming here; she attended the funeral."

"What did you say?" Mrs. Bai Senior exclaimed, "Did you go looking for her, or did she come on her own?"

Lu Cheng just curled his lip, "That’s not important. What’s important is that she went. You always say you don’t want her involved with us, but have you ever asked her what she thinks?"

Mrs. Bai Senior trembled with rage, "Just like Lu Xuhui’s offspring, very well, you dare to contact Chi Yue behind our backs, you better be prepared for bankruptcy."

Bai Dongyang added, "Starting from now, the Bai Family and the Lu Family will cease all partnerships, and from now on, will never work together again."

Upon hearing this, Lu Cheng pressed his lips together and was pulled away by Lu Nanxi.

Having left the Bai residence, Lu Nanxi asked discontentedly, "Why did you say all that? Now great, the company was already struggling, and now it’s even harder."

"No, as long as the Bai Family breaches the contract, we can get a compensation fee that can help us get through for a while," said Lu Cheng.

"Did you intentionally anger them?" Lu Nanxi grew more convinced of her suspicion, "You knew that among all contracts, the penalty for breaching with the Bai Family was the highest, so you purposely made them propose breaking it off."

Lu Cheng smiled, "Correct, you’re truly my sister."

"But isn’t this plan too risky? What if things don’t go as planned?"

"It won’t. Knowing Bai Dongyang’s temperament, he will definitely send someone over; we’re heading back to the company now."

Lu Nanxi frowned, "What about dad?"

"With mom there, there won’t be an issue."

Lu Cheng was confident of victory.

He believed that even if his family knew what he was doing, they wouldn’t blame him for leaving on his own.

Unfortunately, Lu Cheng’s plans were all wrong.

The Bai family wasn’t just Mrs. Bai Senior and Bai Dongyang; there were also Bai Bixuan and Situ En.

Coincidentally, Bai Bixuan and Situ En were in the room pacifying a child.

Bai Bixuan, having heard Lu Cheng’s words from inside the room and intending to come out, was held back by Situ En.

As soon as the siblings left, Bai Bixuan, and Situ En walked out of the room, saying, "Grandma, Dad, please don’t fall for Lu Cheng’s trick."

Bai Dongyang, already holding his phone to make a call, paused to ask, "What do you mean?"

"As far as I know, the Lu Family’s company is barely holding on. I think Lu Cheng intentionally made you propose ending the partnership to profit from the breach of contract money," said Bai Bixuan.

Actually, cooperation between the Bai family and the Lu family had only started over the last few years; earlier, no matter how the Lu Family approached, the Bai Family simply refused to partner with them.

Having been prompted by Bai Bixuan, Bai Dongyang also figured it out, his expression darkening.

"Bring Chi Yue over here; I want to ask her what happened today."

Chi Yue came, but she did not come alone.
