    Chapter 14 Confession

    After a long while, Lu Zhen took the initiative to break the stagnant atmosphere. He said without raising his head, "Lu Shi and Lu Hua, you coaxed them out to eat?"

    Chang Qing did not deny it, he said, "They are very easy to coax."

    Lu Deng paused, glanced at him without a trace, and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

    Chang Qing suspected that he had heard it wrong. He couldn't help but raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Zheng, which happened to meet Lu Zheng's eyes. He couldn't look away, so he met his eyes, smiled casually, and said in a low voice. : "What's there to thank?"

    Lu Zheng said, "You did what I didn't want to do."

    Chang Qing didn't know what to say, and Lu Zheng continued: "They are very annoying."

    Chang Qing answered: "They are all still young and not very sensible."

    Lu Zhen was silent for a while, and said, "I will be very busy during this time, so I shouldn't go home very often. You are their elder and have the right to discipline them, so they will ask you."

    Chang Qing said, "It's easy for you to say a word, but I can't control it. They hate me."

    Lu Zheng was also clear about this fact, so he changed his mind and said, "When I didn't say it, you don't need to worry about them, and nothing can happen left or right."

    Chang Qing let out an "um" and put down his chopsticks.

    Lu Zheng glanced at him, "Are you full?"

    Chang Qing replied casually, he didn't have any appetite now, he pushed away the chair, stood up, and said, "You eat slowly, I'm done."

    Lu Zheng made a "hmm" sound.

    Chang Qing took a few steps, paused, and turned to ask him, "What happened to Wu Junyong?"

    Lu froze for a while, his eyes showed biting coldness, he lowered his eyes to cover up, and did not let Chang Qing see, "What do you think of him?" He asked in a hoarse voice.

    Chang Qing paused for a while and said, "Will he be sentenced to death?"

    Lu Zheng tugged at the corners of his lips and smiled, "No."

    Chang Qing was silent.

    Lu Zheng said: "He was diagnosed with a family genetic disorder and will eventually be sent to a mental hospital."

    Chang Qing asked, "That's it? Without any punishment?"

    Lu Zhen raised his eyes to look at him, his slender eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of bewitchment and temptation in his tone: "Do you want him to pay for his life?"

    Chang Qing answered the question, "How could a mentally ill person be a driver in the Lu family for so many years? Don't you think there is a problem here?"

    Lu Zheng suppressed his irritability, "There are many people who don't like eldest brother in Lu's eyes. They must be very happy that eldest brother is not here."

    When he said this, there seemed to be a bloody aura like gnashing of teeth between the lines.

    Chang Qing clenched his fists and walked quickly to Lu Zheng's side to sit down.

    Lu Zhen seemed to be frightened by his move, so he couldn't help but back away, pulling away from Chang Qing.

    Chang Qing noticed his move and didn't care. He gathered up his courage and said to Lu Zheng, "I have something that I have been hiding from your elder brother."

    Lu Zheng's attention focused, "What's the matter?"

    Chang Qing said: "I took care of a little star."

    Lu Zhen suddenly clenched his fists.

    Chang Qing immediately said, "Calm down, I didn't do anything to be sorry to your elder brother."

    Lu Zheng stared into his eyes, raised his chin slightly, and motioned for him to continue.

    Chang Qing said, "His name is Qin Lang, and he is a bit famous. We got to know him because of a coincidence. He betrayed me miserably, implying that I took care of him, and I became soft-hearted, so... I took care of him."

    Lu Zhen couldn't hold back, and pulled out a sarcastic smile, "You are really kind."

    Chang Qing lowered his eyes, ignoring his unceremonious tone, and continued, "We have nothing to do with each other. It's said that it's nurturing, but it's actually no different from funding..."

    When he said this, he lifted his eyelids and looked at Lu Zheng calmly, "He deliberately approached me, he knows that I am your elder brother's person."

    "What do you want to say?" Lu Zheng frowned and his tone became serious.

    Chang Qing said: "When he chatted with me, he revealed that Wu Junyong was his countryman."

    Lu Zheng's eyes narrowed, "You want to say... it's him?"

    Chang Qing nodded, "I don't have any evidence, but I'm sure it's him. If you don't believe it, you can check it out."

    What he said was too unbelievable. Most people would think that he was thinking too much, but for Lu Zhen, who would rather miss it than let it go, it was enough to express doubts.

    Moreover, there is another thing that Lu Zhen is more concerned about, whether Chang Qing is involved in it.

    Lu Zhen didn't speak, he lowered his eyes, and took away the coldness and cruelty in his eyes.

    Chang Qing said softly: "I'm sorry, I did something wrong."

    Doubting Chang Qing is just a conjecture based on normal logical thinking. What he has seen these days does not make him doubt Chang Qing.

    Lu Zheng tried his best to calm down, and asked with a pun, "Have you done anything to be sorry to my eldest brother?"

    Chang Qing let out a sigh of relief and shook his head heavily, "No, I haven't done anything that I'm sorry for your elder brother, and I have a clear conscience."

    Lu Zhen also let out a breath, "...I believe you." He pulled out a kind smile.

    Chang Qing didn't look at his face, just lowered his head and said softly, "I find it strange that he often asks me about your elder brother's schedule."

    Lu Zhen clenched his fists and said in a low voice, "I'll check, does he still contact you now?"

    Chang Qing handed over his cell phone, "I've hung up."

    Lu Zheng looked at his phone, paused, and pushed the phone back, "Don't show it to me."

    Chang Qing said softly, "If it's really him, help me..."

    He paused, and did not continue.

    Lu Zheng urged gently, "What can you help you with?"

    Chang Qing gritted his teeth and said, "Help me get the money I gave him back."

    "..." Lu Zhen asked in a low voice, "How much did you give him?"

    Chang Qing squeezed the phone tightly and spit out a number, "One and two million."

    Lu Zhen: "..."

    Lu Zhen wanted to question him, a miser, is it really just a subsidy to give an outsider more than one million, and there are no other things that cross the line?

    It's just that he just showed his trust in him, and this is a slap in the face. He endured it, and squeezed a few words from his teeth, "You are really kind."

    Chang Qing lowered his eyes and looked ashamed that he didn't dare to look at Lu Zhen, "I watched his TV series, and he's half a fan, so... a bit irrational."

    This is almost to Lu Zheng's whole heart. Lu Zheng looked at Chang Qing like this, how could he say anything serious.

    He couldn't help remembering that when Lu Xuan was still there, talking to him about Changqing, saying that he was someone who knew exactly what he wanted, that he had almost analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of his whole person before him, and let him the one he chooses.

    Somewhere in Lu Zheng's heart softened, and his voice couldn't help but soften, "...I don't mean to blame you."

    Chang Qing gave a low "um", "I'm done, let's eat, the food is cold."

    Lu Zhen saw that he was leaving, and stopped him, "Wait."

    Chang Qing turned to look at him, and Lu Zheng said, "Big brother's property will fall into your name. If you have time, sign a property distribution agreement with me."

    Lu Xuan did not have a prenuptial agreement in this regard, so Chang Qing, as Lu Xuan's partner, had his inheritance by default.

    Lu Zhen didn't bring this up immediately, because he was afraid that he had seen the wrong person. Now, he has nothing to question.

    He believed in his elder brother's vision, and he also believed in his own eyes.

    Chang Qing didn't show a happy expression when he heard it. He pulled the corners of his lips and said, "This, I won't sign it. You can show it to Lu Hua or Lu Shi."

    Lu Zheng looked at him with a little exploration in his eyes, "Why not?"

    Chang Qing said, "I don't have the face to ask for it."

    Lu Zhen: "..."

    He found out that Chang Qing was sincerely attributing Lu Xuan's death to his fault, and it was his responsibility.

    Lu Zheng didn't know what to say.

    A young man like him who has never been reckless, at this time, he can only say dryly: "This is your thing, you must have it."

    Chang Qing didn't speak. After a while, he said, "I don't want it, I don't want it."

    Lu Zheng pursed his lips and said, "You must be stubborn with me on this matter? You take it and save it well. There will be someone suitable in the future. This is your dowry."

    Chang Qing suddenly looked up at him.

    Lu Zheng looked away and said calmly, "You are only 22 years old, and you will always marry someone or a wife in the future."

    Chang Qing laughed, with an inexplicable sadness, "Do you have to say such a thing at this time?"

    Lu Zhen looked away, and after a while, he said, "I'm sorry."

    At such a time, he still has a temptation mind, and he really can't help Changqing.

    Chang Qing thought for a while and said, "You don't have to worry about giving it to me, just leave it for now, maybe I'll change my mind later."

    Lu Zhen: "Hmm."

    Chang Qing took one last look at him, "I'm leaving, you can eat, it'll be really cold if you don't."

    Lu Zhen: "Hmm."

    Chang Qing turned around and left.

    Lu Zheng retracted his gaze and lost his appetite to continue eating. He put down the tableware and sighed, thinking sincerely that Chang Qing was indeed a good person.

    At this time, Lu Zhen really admitted Lu Xuan's vision, but occasionally there was a hint of confusion in his heart.

    If the previous Chang Qing could be as normal as this, he wouldn't be prejudiced against him from the beginning.

    Now... it's much better, and it's a good thing.

    The author has something to say: this is a little shorter...
