Indulging Mrs. Lu

Chapter 578 - 576: Aren’t You the Clearest on Whether I Am Your Son or Not?

Lu Xiao was handcuffed, unable to fight back, and could only be pushed out of the conference room by others.

By the door, Lu Jinyang and Xiao Qing stood openly, letting Lu Xiao gaze at them.

At this moment, Lu Minghao ran over frantically, and seeing Lu Xiao being escorted by the police, he was beside himself.

Trembling, he approached Director Zhao and asked cautiously, "Comrade officer, what happened to my son?"

"Oh, nothing much, he just killed someone in a hit-and-run five years ago."

"What?!" Lu Minghao’s eyes widened, then he denied immediately, "Impossible! How could that be! My son is not that kind of person!"

"That’s your son in your mind," said Director Zhao, and then gestured to the officers behind him to keep walking.

Hardly taking a few steps, Lu Minghao blocked their way again, saying, "Comrade officer, are you sure you haven’t made a mistake? Could someone be framing my son?" Then he looked at Lu Xiao, "Lu Xiao, tell the officer quickly, you didn’t do it."

Hit-and-run could mean a death sentence; a life for a life.

Lu Minghao only had one son. If this son were to die, who would be there to take care of him in his old age?

It was at this moment that Lu Jinyang spoke up.

"Uncle, there’s no use struggling. Besides taking a life, the things he has done over the past five years, any single one of them could send him to labor reform for half a lifetime," he said.

"You’re talking nonsense!" Lu Minghao rebuked sharply, "Lu Xiao wouldn’t do such things."

Lu Jinyang’s expression remained unchanged as he wrapped his arm around Xiao Qing and turned to leave.

Lu Minghao hurriedly stepped forward to block them, "Lu Jinyang, how could you do this to your cousin, how could you be so cruel to your own cousin!"

Lu Jinyang gently pushed his hand away, his voice cold and piercing, "Whether he is your son or not, you should ask Tan Si!"

That statement, forceful and striking, was like a stone thrown onto a calm lake surface, causing ripples to spread outwards.

Not only was Lu Minghao stunned by these words, but even Xiao Qing was utterly astonished. Meanwhile, Lu Xiao, the person mentioned, looked utterly indifferent.

Seeing that his son wasn’t surprised at all by the news, Lu Minghao’s heart quivered, and his scalp tingled slightly.

He walked over and stood in front of Lu Xiao, "Son, is what he said true?"

Lu Xiao looked deeply at him, "Dad, I’m in this state now; you still believe a stranger over me? I’ve been by your side since I was born; don’t you know whether I’m your son or not?"

Lu Minghao fell silent for a moment, then shook his head, "No, you were born premature."

Reminded by Lu Xiao, Lu Minghao did recall that Lu Xiao was born premature, and the doctor even praised him, saying that despite being premature, he weighed six pounds.

At the time, Lu Minghao had no suspicions, overjoyed by the birth of a precious son and naturally not thinking about that possibility.

He looked at Lu Xiao skeptically, "You’re not surprised at all about your origins?"

Lu Xiao suddenly smiled wryly, "If I took every rumor seriously, wouldn’t that make life exhausting?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jinyang interjected, "Uncle, I suggest you go and have a paternity test done now. Decide whether to save him after the results come out."

Hearing this, Lu Minghao hesitated. Seizing the moment of his indecision, Lu Jinyang signaled Director Zhao with a glance, and the latter understood immediately.

He pulled a few strands of hair from Lu Xiao’s head and handed them to Lu Minghao, saying, "Go on, get an expedited test, and you’ll have the results tomorrow."
