377 Threat
Lu Heng could only suppress his temper temporarily.
However, he didn't give them a good look. He just sat on the chair expressionlessly and went to eat without moving his chopsticks.
Bai Manli felt a little distressed when she saw him like this, so she took some vegetables with her chopsticks and put them into his bowl.
She was too shy to look at Lu Heng.
"Brother Lu, you have worked hard in the military area every day. Eat more."
Bai Manli's actions made Bai Yufang laugh.
"Manli still feels sorry for people. Look, Xiao Heng is really dark and thin. He just came back from the Northeast. There is a lot of people there. He must not be able to eat well or sleep well. He really needs to take some supplements."
Lu Qiuyan also echoed.
"Sister Manli, why haven't I seen you serving me food? It's not good to treat one with favoritism. I also want to eat the food served by sister Manli. Why does sister Manli only have eyes for her second brother?"
Bai Manli felt a little embarrassed by the two of them.
He quickly picked up the chopsticks and gave Lu Qiuyan and Bai Yufang some vegetables each.
"Auntie, Qiuyan, you two, stop teasing me and eat quickly."
Their discussion did not become quieter at all because of Lu Heng's presence.
Even while talking, he glanced at Lu Heng aside intentionally or unintentionally.
This made Lu Heng feel a little strange.
Looking at the dishes in the bowl, Lu Heng had a look of disgust in his eyes. He picked up the chopsticks on the side and picked out the dishes Bai Manli had just picked out, and threw them on the table.
"I don't like eating from strangers."
At this point, he has made his position clear.
But such an action made Bai Manli's eyes suddenly turn red, and tears kept rolling in her eyes.
The fingers are trembling.
She looked at Lu Heng aggrievedly.
Stubbornly not letting tears fall.
Finally he lowered his head and shed two tears.
Then he started crying silently.
Lu Qiuyan and Bai Yufang both looked at Lu Heng reproachfully.
They began to comfort Bai Manli.
"Manli, don't cry. Xiao Heng didn't mean it. He hasn't had much contact with women since he was a child, so he doesn't know how to get along with girls. Please be patient. We will definitely teach him a lesson later."
Bai Yufang's face was filled with distress as she looked at Bai Manli in front of her.
She looked at Lu Heng,
"Xiao Heng, what's going on with you? Manli, she's a girl. It takes a lot of courage to pick up food for you. Why did you pick out the food she picked up?"
Lu Heng felt that Bai Yufang's words were a bit baffling.
"Why should I eat the food she brings? I only eat the food my partner gives me. I feel sick even when I see food from other women."
When Bai Manli heard this, she cried even louder.
She had met the person Lu Heng had talked about before.
Jiang Yue is indeed very good-looking, but she is a rural girl.
Lu Chenshi felt that a rural girl was not worthy of the outstanding Lu Heng.
But Lu Chenshi was very optimistic about her.
That's why she came here today. She didn't expect to be insulted like this.
"Auntie, I'm really shameless. I didn't come here today to be insulted. How could he talk like this?"
Bai Manli looked at Lu Heng with red eyes.
But it didn't make him feel any sympathy at all.
He just felt that the woman in front of him was very noisy.
Lu Chenshi was also angry. He stood up from his chair and looked down at Lu Heng in his seat.
"Let me tell you that Jiang Yue cannot enter my Lu family. As long as I am still your father and the political commissar of this military region, I will not allow such a thing to happen. Just give up!"
"Also, to tell you the truth, the reason why we asked you to come back today is to let Manli meet you. We plan to find an auspicious day for you and Manli to get engaged. Only a girl like him can be worthy of you!"
Lu Chenshi's words made Lu Heng suddenly stand up from his chair.
"What did you say? What kind of engagement? Did you get my consent? What qualifications do you have to make the decision for me?"
There was an undercurrent in Lu Heng's eyes, and he looked at Lu Shen as if he were looking at his enemy.
He was now extremely angry.
If it weren't for the remaining reason, he suppressed his inner emotions.
He already wanted to take action against the person in front of him who gave him life.
Lu Chenshi also came from the battlefield. Even though Lu Heng's aura was terrifying, he did not show any signs of decline.
"What qualifications do I have? Don't forget, I am your father. I am qualified to arrange your marriage. Your surname is Lu. You are a child of my Lu family. Not everyone can open the door of this Lu family. Come on, I’ve told you so many times, but you just didn’t take it to heart. I’ll just pretend that what happened today never happened, and I’ll sit on the chair and apologize to Manli right now.”
Lu Chenshi calmed down now.
As if nothing happened, he sat on the chair and discussed the terms with Lu Heng in an understatement.
Lu Heng pursed his lips and glanced around. Everyone's expression was different.
Bai Yufang and Lu Qiuyan looked at her gloatingly, while Bai Manli looked aggrieved.
Obviously, they all know what the purpose of today's dinner is?
Only he was kept in the dark.
That's great.
His nominal father actually threatened him with a promotion document to marry a woman he didn't love!
How ridiculous!
Lu Heng smiled.
"Why do you think I will compromise? You are not the only one in the entire military region. Chief Jiang, do you know that you monopolize power like this?"
At this time he had to move out of Jiang Guoan.
But this did not scare Lu Chenshi.
He chuckled, picked up the cup on the table, and took a sip of water.
"You don't think Jiang Guoan can scare me, do you? He is a chief, so what? He just took office. If I knew that he would be a stumbling block for me in the future, how could I let him become the chief? I After living in this capital for so many years, I won’t be afraid of a chief! If it doesn’t work, you can give it a try!”
"As for your target, their family is from the countryside. They have no foundation in the capital, and they only rely on Jiang Guoan. If I want to touch them, do you think anyone can stop me? Think about it carefully, you have time to think about it after a meal!”
Lu Chen was full of momentum.
Lu Heng knew that what he said was true.
He has been in this capital for many years and must have his own power.
If he wants to touch Jiang Yue and Jiang Guoan,
There really is no way anyone can stop it.
Lu Heng straightened his body. Thinking of this, he felt very helpless.
I just hate that I am not capable enough to protect the one I love.
He gave in, sat on the chair, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
Seeing him like this, Lu Chenshi was very satisfied.
