Can a System Have Bad Intentions? - Chapter 28

At the other side, Qin Mo carried Lu Tang through the rest of the night.

Meanwhile, at the Lu Family.

As soon as Yuan Bao delivered the news to Madam Qiao, Lu Deren also received news from Sihe Town.

Learning that Lu Tang had gone to Sihe Town and stayed at Chunxi Inn, Lu Deren was so shocked that he knocked over his teacup.

Don’t ask why Lu Deren had a teacup in his hand in the middle of the night—he was too worried to sleep.

Lu Shuqing suddenly refused to marry Gu Changming. Gu Changming foolishly brought Lu Yuchen in front of Lu Tang. Lu Yuchen poured wine on Lu Tang, and Lu Tang broke Lu Yuchen’s head.

These complicated issues appeared one after another in front of Lu Deren, causing his hairline to recede significantly.

Now, Lu Tang had gone to Chunxi Inn!

Lu Deren slammed his fist on the table and said to his trusted aide, “Go and call Gu Yunhe.”

The trusted aide received the order and left. Before long, Gu Yunhe entered the Lu family’s study with a serious expression. “Brother Lu, what happened?”

Lu Deren briefly explained Lu Tang’s visit to Chunxi Inn.

“It can’t be a coincidence. They must have sensed something, which is why Shuqing refuses to marry Changming!”

Gu Yunhe wanted Gu Changming to marry Lu Shuqing for the large amount of money Madam Qiao had.

Now, if Lu Deren’s affair was exposed, Changming would have no chance!

“No, we must quickly find a way to make Changming and Shuqing consummate their marriage. This way, no matter what happens in the future, the marriage can’t be canceled. As long as Lu Shuqing is in our hands, we have nothing to fear!”

Lu Deren was so anxious that he developed a sore in his mouth. “The biggest problem now is, I’m afraid Madam Qiao will harm Achen and the others!”

Gu Yunhe cursed Lu Deren in his heart, “As long as Changming and Shuqing’s matter is settled, how would Madam Qiao have the time to deal with your affair?”

Lu Deren shook his head, “You don’t understand Madam Qiao. That woman is very vicious!”

After a moment, Lu Deren seemed to make up his mind. He opened the drawer of his desk and took out a stack of papers filled with writing. “At this point, there’s only one way. I must divorce Madam Qiao!”

Gu Yunhe was so shocked that he almost blurted out: You are just a son-in-law!

Luckily, he held back. “Divorce? How confident are you? Even if you divorce her, what about Madam Qiao’s property?”

Lu Deren’s eyes gleamed with malice.

“Once I divorce her, the Qiao family’s property will definitely be ours.” He said, looking at Gu Yunhe. “Brother Gu, it’s up to you. If you can get the magistrate to help, Madam Qiao’s consent won’t matter!”

Gu Yunhe was shocked by Lu Deren’s ruthlessness, but he clapped his hands. “When the time comes, if Madam Qiao is left with nothing, she won’t be able to cause any trouble! As long as the Qiao family’s business is in your hands, Madam Qiao can’t make waves.”

“Exactly! So, I rely on you, Brother Gu!” Lu Deren bowed to Gu Yunhe, handing him the divorce papers. “As long as the magistrate stands by me, I will reward you generously!”

The Gu family had much more influence in the court than the magistrate. For Gu Yunhe, the magistrate would always show respect.

Without much hesitation, Gu Yunhe took the divorce papers and left.

After Gu Yunhe left, Lu Deren stood by the window, looking at the hazy night outside, and muttered, “Madam, don’t blame me. Blame yourself for pushing things too far!”

If Lu Tang hadn’t gone to Sihe Town, he wouldn’t have acted tonight!

Meanwhile, Madam Qiao received Yuan Bao’s message and, taking Lu Shuqing and Qiao Fu, hurried to Sihe Town overnight.

Lu Tang lay on Qin Mo’s back for half the night. Exhausted by pain, she was drooling in her sleep.

“Congratulations, Host, for surviving the system’s punishment.”

At dawn, the system’s cold voice suddenly sounded in Lu Tang’s mind like a firecracker, startling her awake. She fell off Qin Mo’s back.

Bang!

Her head hit the bed, and she quickly got up, seeing Qin Mo’s gloomy eyes.

Lu Tang shrank her neck and waved at Qin Mo, “Thank you, Leader, for saving my life last night. I will definitely repay you!”

I’ll ask my mother to give you some money!

Qin Mo rubbed his shoulder, which had gone numb from Lu Tang lying on it all night. His hand came away wet, and he wiped it on the mattress in disgust. “What kind of weird condition is this?”

Lu Tang said awkwardly, “Didn’t Brother Zhan say I might be poisoned?”

Qin Mo rolled his eyes, “Poisoned, and sleeping on my back would cure you?”

“Then you must be my antidote!”

Qin Mo: !

Lu Tang: !

Damn!

What did I just say!

Licking her lips, Lu Tang kicked Liang Cheng, who was lying nearby, “Get up!”

Liang Cheng was kicked to the floor, and in a panic, he grabbed the edge of the bed to avoid falling flat on his face. Seeing Lu Tang sitting on the bed, he hurried over, “Brother Tang, are you alright?”

Lu Tang grabbed Liang Cheng’s ear, “Why don’t you find out if I’m alright!”

Saying this, she got off the bed, dragging Liang Cheng by the ear out of the room.

This room was too awkward.

If she stayed one more second, she would die of embarrassment.

Why didn’t she have the mindset that if she wasn’t embarrassed, others would be?

Once outside, Lu Tang kicked Liang Cheng’s butt, “You had fun playing with the white mouse last night, didn’t you?”

Before Liang Cheng could speak, the innkeeper of Chunxi Inn stood in the hallway, staring at them in shock.

Wasn’t she taken away in the middle of the night?

How was she here safe and sound?

While the innkeeper was dumbfounded, Lu Tang walked up to him and snapped her fingers, “Innkeeper, did you personally bring us breakfast? Thank you, I’m really hungry!”

Saying this, she took the tray from the innkeeper’s hands.

Innkeeper: !

This was prepared for the guests in the next room!

Wait!

Is that the point?

The point is, why are you still here!

Liang Cheng smirked at the innkeeper, “Oh, what’s with your look? It’s like we shouldn’t be here.

If we’re not here, where should we be? Under the carriage?”

Lu Tang: Respect!

Taking the breakfast, Lu Tang and Liang Cheng returned to the room. They had had a tough night and were starving. They devoured the food, and Liang Cheng burped.

“Brother Tang, you scared me to death last night. Oh right, check if we still have the treasure we found.”

Lu Tang calmly patted her chest, “Don’t worry, it’s here!”

Next door, Qin Mo was hungry and waiting for food. “That shorty is too thin. Last night, sleeping on my back, her chest hurt my back as if there was a brick on her chest.”

Over here, Lu Tang sneezed!

Just then, they heard a commotion downstairs. Lu Tang and Liang Cheng rushed to the window and saw her mother and sister entering the Qiao Family Inn.

“Let’s go over too!”
