Chapter 45: Best Foreign Aid“Uncle, Uncle, we want to ride in the car too!” Lu Liang’s two nephews rushed out when they saw him getting ready to leave. With just a glance from Lu Ya, she barked, “Go back!” Sёarch* The nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The two children, like mice seeing a cat, immediately ran back into the house without looking back. Lu Liang clapped his hands and praised, “My sister, still as powerful as ever.” Lu Ya, unusually not angry, revealed a rare gentleness in her eyes. “Ah Liang, you’ve really changed a lot lately.” Her brother had always been a lively boy, but after getting married, he gradually became more silent. Although they both had their own families now and only saw each other once a year, she could sense that the pressure from his wife had been too much for him. But now that Lu Liang had changed back to the cheerful young man he once was, Lu Ya was happy for him. “Sis, get in the car.” Lu Liang circled the car and, following the example of the hotel manager, Tan Tao, opened the front passenger door in a gentlemanly manner. “Good manners,” Lu Ya chuckled, scolding him lightly. The deep rumbling of the Lamborghini Urus echoed as the siblings drove off toward home. Neighbors nearby started to gather, seeing Lu Ya get into the car, someone asked, “Who’s that? Why did his wife get in the car with him?” Someone else answered, “That’s Lu Ya’s brother, the one who works in Magic City.” “That car is a Bull, right? I think it costs millions. Has your little brother struck it rich?” Luo Haitong replied irritably, “If he’s made money, it’s his business. Why are you all worrying?” “You can’t say that. Once someone strikes it rich, everyone around them benefits. It looks like the soft cigarettes have gone up in price too.” Luo Haitong glared at the person and handed out cigarettes, waving them off. “Go on, do what you need to do.” ... Meanwhile, as Lu Liang drove along the rural road back to his village, Lu Ya asked about the price of the car. Lu Liang vaguely replied, saying it should be around several hundred thousand. Lu Ya immediately shot him a look, “You think I’m a country bumpkin? A car worth over three million, and you say it’s only a few hundred thousand?” She couldn’t help but worry. In just a few months, Lu Liang had bought a car worth over three million. Was the money really legitimate? Lu Ya seriously said, “What if something goes wrong? If you can run, just go ahead. I’ll take care of Mom and Dad.” Lu Liang suddenly laughed, “Sis, don’t worry. The money is definitely legitimate, or else how could I dare open a company?” “Ha, back when Wu Lao’er from the neighboring village said the same thing, everyone found out he was selling fake liquor after he got caught.” “You have such an imagination. I don’t feel like talking to you anymore.” Lu Liang smiled wryly. There weren’t many people who could completely suppress him, but Lu Ya was definitely one of them. After all, when they were young, their parents were busy, and the boys’ development was slower than the girls’. He had grown up smoothly, thanks to his sister’s protection. Lu Ya suddenly looked ahead and softly said, “When you have money, don’t just think about yourself. You also need to consider Mom and Dad.” Their hometown, Luhhe Village, was just ahead. In Jiangsu and Zhejiang, rural areas were full of comparisons. Every household had built three or four-story villas. ṚäΝƟ????ΕŚ Even if they didn’t have money, they would borrow to build. But just up ahead was a one-and-a-half-story old house, nestled between the villas, making it stand out. “I will,” Lu Liang nodded firmly. That old house was their home, and it had been there for 32 years now. They had once considered tearing it down and rebuilding, but Lu Liang stayed in Magic City, planning to settle there. His parents supported his decision and helped with the down payment, so there was no money left to renovate the old house. It was 8 p.m. on a summer evening. This was one of the most active times in the village’s gossip network. Their house was not far from the river, and the riverside pavilion was one of the gathering points for local chatter. When a yellow, expensive-looking SUV zoomed by, it immediately caught the attention of the villagers. “Is that a Jinbei?” “That’s not a Jinbei, that’s a Jin Niu!” “Jin Niu? How does it compare to BMW or Benz?” “Probably not as good, right?” “Really? But it looks even more expensive than the BMW X3 from the Fengchun family.” “Nonsense, the X3 is only worth around 300,000. This one must be close to 400.” A young man, who knew a little about cars, couldn’t contain his curiosity. He stared at the car, practically drooling. The Lamborghini Urus, the dream car for many men. “400 million? Are you kidding?” “Why is it parked outside the Iron Hammer’s house?” “Oh my God, is that Iron Hammer’s eldest daughter and his youngest son?” The villagers wanted to take a closer look and gradually gathered around. “Uncle San, Old Chun, are you coming out for some evening air?” Lu Liang greeted a few of the elderly men he knew, then, whether he knew them or not, he started handing out cigarettes. “Soft cigarettes? Looks like Iron Hammer’s son is doing well.” Lu Liang’s father, Lu Jiancheng, was known as Iron Hammer in the village. The nickname came from when he was young, using an iron hammer to fight and gain fame. For the past 40 to 50 years, everyone just called him “Iron Hammer,” and his son was also referred to as “Iron Hammer’s son.” “It’s just a small business,” Lu Liang said as he opened the trunk and handed out two packs of soft cigarettes to the two elderly men. He continued, “Uncle San, Old Chun, you enjoy your evening, I’ll take my sister inside now.” The two old men received the cigarettes, their faces beaming with smiles, and said to the crowd, “Go on, disperse.” Old Chun said to Lu Liang, “Iron Hammer’s son, come over for some tea when you have time.” “Okay,” Lu Liang replied. Lu Liang and Lu Ya walked toward their house, carrying large and small bags. In rural areas, as long as there was someone at home, doors were rarely locked except at night. Their parents were sitting inside watching TV, the sound so loud they didn’t even hear the door open. When they saw the siblings, they were stunned. “How come both of you are back?” His father reacted first and hurriedly closed the door, making sure no one could see inside, completely oblivious to the car parked outside. His mother, still asking, “Where’s Wenjing?” Lu Liang paused and repeated what he had told his sister earlier, skipping over the part about selling the house and making money. He knew his mother had high blood pressure, so he decided to let her digest one thing at a time. His mother’s face turned red with anger. “How could you get a divorce and not tell me?” Lu Ya, seeing the mood was off, quickly stepped in to comfort her. “Mom, didn’t you say that since Wenjing went to Magic City with Ah Liang, she’s become more and more lazy? Ah Liang getting a divorce is actually a good thing.” “And look at how handsome my brother is, why would he have trouble finding another wife? A divorced man is even more attractive now.” Lu Ya had a special way of handling their mother, and she was quickly distracted. “Oh, you know how much Ah Liang spent on his wedding? He has no money now, who would marry him?” Lu Ya smiled mischievously. “Have you ever considered that my brother might strike it rich? When that happens, there’ll be a line of girls waiting to be your daughter-in-law.” “Stop always thinking about making money. I just want you all to be safe and sound,” their mother said earnestly. “Looks like safety is out the window,” Lu Ya teased lightly, nodding toward the small surveillance monitor by the TV. She grinned. “Did you notice, Ah Liang drove me here in that car?” “When did he buy a car?” Not only the mother but the father was also shocked. He knew about Lu Liang’s divorce but didn’t know he had bought a car. “Honesty brings leniency, resistance brings severity.” Lu Ya straightened her face and suddenly stood by her parents, giving Lu Liang a subtle OK gesture. The biggest shock had already been dealt with, and as long as he was honest, things would go smoothly. After all, their parents’ strong reaction to the divorce was mostly because they were worried about their child being left alone. But if there was money involved, everything changed. “You sold the house and opened a company?” Their parents’ faces mirrored Lu Ya’s earlier reaction. They shared her worries about where the money came from, fearing that one day Lu Liang might end up in trouble. Lu Liang explained for a long time, but when it was clear his parents weren’t convinced, he pulled up a business verification app on his phone: “Look, Tianxing Investment. I’m the legal representative and the shareholder. The registered capital is 6 million.” “If my money didn’t come from legitimate sources, why would I open a company so openly? That would be asking for trouble.”
