Chapter 38: Family Changes

As soon as Lu Fan said this, Chen Dongming's face changed drastically. Why should he give him the account book? He endured until now, but at this moment he couldn't bear it anymore.

He gritted his teeth, the originally slightly bowed waist suddenly straightened. When a person is forced to the extreme, all kinds of scruples, panic and fear and other negative emotions will dissipate, and there will be no more constraints.

"Cousin! Yuhua Hall is an industry under my name, it seems it's not your turn to manage it!"

Chen Dongming's face was gloomy, saying coldly.

The waiters around seemed to feel something, and everyone was surprised, never expecting their shopkeeper to be so courageous, actually daring to call out to Lu Fan, this evil god.

Lu Fan smiled contemptuously, "Hehe, Chen Dongming, I underestimated you, you are quite tough!"

He spoke softly this time, but as soon as his voice fell, his whole face sank, not angry but prestigious. The bearing of that superior in his previous life exploded instantly, and the first to bear the brunt was Chen Dongming.

Chen Dongming was surprised, as if he saw a supreme emperor, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, unable to stop.

A group of waiters further away were scared out of their wits, and everyone fell to the ground. Some even had urine and urine flowing, and a stuffy smell dissipated.

Lu Fan frowned, waved his large hand, picked up Chen Dongming's collar, threw it violently, and threw it into a quiet room in the inner hall, "Humph! It seems I have to talk to you properly!"

Chen Dongming stumbled against a wall in the quiet room, his whole body seemed to fall apart, his blood and energy surged, his throat felt sweet, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Lu Fan took a step, and had already entered the quiet room. The wind swept, the door behind him closed tightly, blocking the sight of outsiders. Then he turned his hand, and a blank rune paper shot out, condensing in the void. He drew a few strokes, runes condensed on the rune paper, turning into a talisman.

"Seal"

With a clear shout, he pointed in the air, and the talisman stuck tightly to the door, a ray of light dissipated, and the inside and outside were isolated.

Seeing Lu Fan's actions, Chen Dongming was dumbfounded, muttering to himself: "Rune Master? How could it be a Rune Master? I must have seen a ghost..." But Lu Fan was really in front of him, and the pain in his body was also reminding him that this was reality.

Lu Fan was calm, sat on the side, straightened his clothes, and then said slowly: "Chen Dongming, you deceived me when I was young, swindled me out of many treasures, and then had the initial capital for this Yuhua Hall. Even this shop, you also set it up in my name. Strictly speaking, I am the owner of Yuhua Hall, do you say I have the qualification to check the account?"

Lu Fan said it neither hot nor cold, and his face was calm, but in his eyes, there was a trace of strange emotion. Speaking to the back, it seemed to be just a question, without half a hard meaning.

But Chen Dongming didn't dare to think so, he only felt that he couldn't see through Lu Fan. This was not a means a child could have, sometimes thunderous, sometimes calm like water, unpredictable.

In his impression, it seemed that only the old master of the Lu family had such means. And it seemed that he couldn't compare to Lu Fan. He was cold all over, tried his best to calm his mind, climbed up trembling, hanging his hands, looking like he was bowing his head to be trained.

"Cousin... you are right! This shop was indeed set up in your name, otherwise I, a poor boy from a poor country, couldn't have stood firm in the Imperial Capital!"

Chen Dongming seemed to remember something, his face was slightly bitter, and there was a trace of self-mockery in the corner of his mouth.

Lu Fan's gaze sharpened, and he had already felt a trace of Chen Dongming's heart. The high branch of the Lu family is not easy to climb, this Chen Dongming probably also suffered some grievances.

"Hmm! You know it, take the account book and let me see!" He nodded and ordered directly.

Chen Dongming didn't dare to violate it this time, took out a pile of account books from the Universe Bag at his waist, took the initiative to spread them out respectfully.

Lu Fan's spiritual power swept out, swept over, only heard "shua shua" broken sounds, page after page of account books turned at will. After half a stick of incense, he finished reading them all.

Chen Dongming stared, only feeling incredible. These account books, even if he didn't sleep all night, would take at least three days, how could he finish reading in such a short time?

But when he thought that Lu Fan was a Rune Master, he was a bit relieved. With the means of a Rune Master, reading ten lines at a glance, I'm afraid it's not a problem.

"Humph! Chen Dongming, your means are not simple! Even Lu Ran you hooked up with!"

Lu Fan snorted, Chen Dongming woke up, and didn't dare to breathe. Thinking of the grudge between Lu Fan and Lu Ran, his whole body was shivering, not knowing how to explain.

"Lu Ran advanced to Great Martial Master at the age of twenty, and can rank in the top five among our Lu family disciples! You really hugged a golden thigh!"

Lu Fan's tone sounded calm, but the meaning was self-evident. Chen Dongming, who was used to observing words and colors, only then came to his senses, stuttering to explain.

"Cousin, it's not what you think. I'm not familiar with Lu Ran, and you know that the Lu family is now in charge of the Second Master Lu, Lu Ran is his only son, if I..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Fan's face changed, waved his hand to interrupt him, narrowed his eyes, and said coldly: "What did you say, the family is in charge of the Second Master Lu? What about the old master? Where is my father?"

Lu Fan said this, his face was slightly strange, and unconsciously, he had completely substituted into Lu Fan. Naturally, the supreme powerhouse of the previous life is Lu Fan, and the waste boy of this life is also Lu Fan.

Chen Dongming's face was surprised, looking unbelievable: "You don't know yet?" He was a bit strange, then a bit realized, "Three years ago, not long after you went to the academy, the old master went into seclusion to practice, and your father left the Lu family and never came back..."

Chen Dongming seemed to open the chatterbox, and the various things that happened in the Lu family in three years were told slowly.

Lu Fan's face changed several times, and only then did he gradually understand. The Lu family must have had an accident, otherwise even if it was a waste young master, he shouldn't be left to fend for himself, thrown into the Tianyuan Academy, and never cared about it again.

The obsession in his brain surfaced again, the pain and confusion of the poor boy who shared the same name with him in the past also became clear.

Three years ago, Lu Fan was still the favored direct descendant of the Lu family. Although he was a martial arts waste, precious spiritual medicines and treasures were always supplied in full, and he was left to squander.

The name of the waste wood had long been famous in the Imperial Capital, and if it was to be abandoned, it would have been abandoned long ago, it would never be so sudden, it must have a great reason. Even if it was raised as before, with the family business of the Lu family, it didn't count as anything at all.

"So it is! I said how in these three years, no one from the Lu family has ever seen me, looked for me, it seems the problem is with Second Uncle Lu!" He said leisurely, slightly emotional.

Chen Dongming's gaze sharpened, his face horizontal, "Not bad, it is Second Master Lu. Three years ago, he ordered that you, cousin, are no longer a member of the Lu family, no one is allowed to visit, no one is allowed to provide help, and you are to fend for yourself..."

He said a lot of bad things about Lu Fan's second uncle in one breath, and even scolded Lu Ran. Clearly, the shock Lu Fan gave him was too great, and at this moment, he made his position clear and set aside the relationship.

After talking for a long time, he came to his senses. But he saw Lu Fan staring at him, a meaningful smile, and then closed his mouth, vaguely feeling that he had gone too far.

"Hmm! You performed well!" Lu Fan nodded, a warm smile, took out a talisman from his sleeve, raised it and said: "I have recorded our conversation through the Image-Recording Talisman. I will copy two copies later and send them to Second Master Lu and Lu Ran."

"Plop", Chen Dongming heard Lu Fan's words, his knees softened, and he actually knelt down. His face was full of fear, begging for mercy loudly: "Cousin, I was wrong, let me go! If this thing falls into their hands, I will be dead..."

He cried while talking, making Lu Fan annoyed, and stopped the other party with a cold shout.

"You get up! What kind of system is this!" Lu Fan's words fell, Chen Dongming was terrified, seeming to feel that his appearance was a bit inappropriate, and stood up slowly, looking at Lu Fan's eyes completely changed.

If he was only intimidated by Lu Fan's martial arts before, half fear, half false snake. Then now, it is true panic and fear, and a trace of conviction. He could no longer give birth to any thoughts of violating resistance to any word Lu Fan said, and could only obey.

He gritted his teeth hard, as if he had made up his mind, "If cousin lets me go today, I will be cousin's person in the future. Saddle and horse, let cousin dispatch."

Lu Fan smiled slightly, he spent half a day, waiting for this sentence from Chen Dongming, saying lightly: "You said it yourself, I didn't force you. Don't worry, as long as you don't betray me, this pair of dog father and son Lu Ran won't know."

Chen Dongming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and was about to express his loyalty again, but heard Lu Fan say again: "Even if they know, they can't help you, you just need to work for me wholeheartedly! Of course, if you have any second thoughts, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Chen Dongming heard these words, scared into a cold sweat. But there was no doubt in his heart, and he seemed to be completely convinced by Lu Fan.

"Alright! Don't talk about these, the jade materials sent by those Jade Pickers, take them all for me to see!"

As soon as Lu Fan's words fell, Chen Dongming had already rushed out of the door and took a few baskets of gray-white stones.

Lu Fan's spiritual power swept out again, carefully checking. Most of these gray-white stones were low-quality jade, which could not be used. However, there were still a dozen Origin Stones hidden among them, all of which were picked out by Ye Fei.

"Cousin, these leftovers are waste, what do you want them for? If you like jade, why don't you go to my warehouse and see the world..."

Chen Dongming was puzzled, he couldn't look at these gray-white stones at all, since Lu Fan was interested, it was better to take him to the warehouse to see the world.

Lu Fan frowned, looked at Chen Dongming coldly, the other party closed his mouth immediately, and dared not say more, "Those Jade Pickers are all poor people, contract the Jade Field that produces these jade materials under your name! The jade materials produced are all kept intact and sent to me." ===== CHAPTER 39 =====
