Chapter 598

Kicked Out of the Lu Family

Lin Nannan shook her head, "If we weren't here, it might be possible. But the research institute is located here, and the tasks inside are confidential. Building a factory means doing business, and doing business means having people. If someone were to infiltrate because of this, we couldn't guard against it. So, aside from farming, it's impossible to build any factory here."

That's also why she had the villagers plant the seeds she brought.

Speaking of seeds, she still needed to find time to modify them with the restorative solution. Otherwise, if the results weren't good, it would kill everyone's motivation.

"How did this kid get so lucky? You've already planned everything out for him," Lu Hang said discontentedly.

Lu Yuan's path was paved by Nan Nan, but she walked it herself. If she persevered to the end, she would rise straight to the top.

Now, it seemed Lin Nannan also wanted to pave the way for Lu Ming, making it seem like he's less important and a little unhappy.

Lin Nannan wasn't as clueless about matters of the heart as she used to be. Whether in the military or the Lin family, she had witnessed all kinds of relationships, so she naturally detected the jealous tone in Lu Hang's words. She said, amused, "Are you already jealous? What if Lu Ming doesn't even want it?"

Lu Hang snorted coldly, "If he doesn't want it, he'll get himself kicked out of the Lu family!"

The Lu family didn’t have anyone that foolish.

Lin Nannan was amused by his words, bursting out laughing. "Then don’t say anything for now. Let’s see what Lu Ming chooses. What if he really doesn’t want to be part of the Lu family?"

Lu Hang watched her laugh so heartily and couldn’t understand where her weird sense of humor came from.

"He's the only brother I've got!" Was it really okay to play like this?

"Then how many wives do you want?" Lin Nannan asked with a serious expression.

"One!" Lu Hang’s survival instincts kicked in instantly, and he replied without hesitation, "Do whatever you want. If he makes you unhappy, he won’t be part of the Lu family anymore."

This was a man who would throw his own brother under the bus for his wife, leaving Lin Nannan both amused and exasperated. "If Lu Ming finds out, he’d probably cry his eyes out!"

"Then let him cry!" As long as he didn’t lose his wife, it was fine.

Otherwise, he would be the one crying.

Lin Nannan was defeated by his survival instincts, unable to find anything to argue about. She couldn’t even pick a fight if she tried.

"You really aren’t afraid of him being expelled from the Lu family!" She felt it wasn’t her wanting to play around, but rather Lu Hang wanting to mess with Lu Ming.

Lu Hang sneered and said, "He doesn’t have to put in anything. It’s a golden opportunity, and such a good one at that. There’s no competition in the early stages. It’s a business that practically hands him money on a platter. If he really refuses, what is he, stupid?"

"What if he doesn’t like it?"

"Hah!" Lu Hang scoffed. "Not liking something is a choice you have when you have the power to decide. He’s just graduated and has nothing. Even if he doesn’t like it, he should get some experience and money under his belt first before pursuing what he likes. Otherwise, without connections or opportunities, no matter how hard he grinds, it won’t lead anywhere."

He had seen enough of the world to know that, which was why he had put his life on the line to fight his way to where he was now.

Lu Ming was different from him. So, if he wanted to be stubborn, it would depend on the circumstances.

He would rather Lu Ming wait a few years until he had stronger wings before seeking another path, rather than have him reject Nan Nan’s proposal now.

"Worrying won’t help. It’s up to him to choose," Lin Nannan said sincerely.

Give someone an inch and they take a mile. She didn’t want her good intentions to backfire.

"I know, so I won’t interfere. It’s entirely up to him to decide!"

He also didn’t want to stir up drama in the family over these matters.

During the family’s hardest times, Second Uncle and his wife never complained once. He treasured that bond deeply.
