Chapter 237: Hatred for Stealing His Beloved
Lu Sheng smiled and walked forward. She massaged Lu Zhou’s shoulders and said obsequiously, “Master, don’t be angry. I didn’t mean to forget you!”
She was just engrossed in watching the show.
Lu Zhou’s heart softened, but he still said stubbornly, “If this happens again, don’t ever think of getting any benefits from me.”
When Lu Sheng heard that, she hurriedly raised her hand and swore. “I swear that I won’t do it again!”
Lu Zhou snorted and thought of Dongfang Mansion. He couldn’t help but complain. “That’s why there are more disputes in places with more women. Old Master Dongfang deserves what happened today. Why did he marry so many women for no reason?”
“Yes!”
Lu Sheng nodded in agreement.
Having a lot of children was originally a good thing. However, after marrying so many wives and concubines, there was a lot of overt and covert struggles. The children who should have grown up well became sacrificial lambs for the conflicts in the back courtyard.
How was this a blessing? This was clearly a sin.
“What should we do with this monk?” Chu Sihan looked down at the monk and asked faintly.
Lu Zhou said lightly, “I’ve already gotten rid of his Root of Wisdom. You can lock him up in jail as well.”
The monk was guilty of harming others with money. It was normal for him to be locked up for three to five years.
Chu Sihan nodded in agreement and asked, “Caught the Nightmare Beast?”
Lu Zhou nodded. “Yes.”
He said to Lu Sheng, “I’ll be leaving for a period of time tomorrow. I’ll be back in at most half a year, minimally three to five months. If you have any problems, find this kid. If he can’t solve them, find another person and marry him. Let him fend for himself.”
Chu Sihan was speechless.
Lu Sheng was speechless.
Chu Sihan frowned slightly and asked the question in his heart, “Uncle-Master Lu, does my father have a feud with you?”
Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. “Which one are you referring to?”
Wasn’t that obvious? He did not know Chu Hongzhong...
“If it’s your biological father, it’s not considered a big feud.”
At most, his hatred for him was that he stole his beloved.
Chu Sihan raised his eyebrows. “If that’s the case, why do you make things difficult for me?”
“Uncle-Master is making things difficult for you? How is Uncle-Master making things difficult for you?”
Lu Zhou snorted coldly. “Could Uncle-Master be wrong? You’re the son of the King of Hades. If you can’t even solve a small matter, what’s the use of having you?”
Chu Sihan thought, “...That sounds reasonable.”
Hence, he solemnly promised, “Uncle-Master, don’t worry. As long as it’s about Sheng Sheng, I will definitely not look on and do nothing.”
Lu Sheng was speechless.
Was she being ignored?
Could he ask her how she felt? Did she look like someone who needed someone to take care of her?
After returning to the government office, Chu Sihan got someone to bring the monk away before sending Lu Sheng back to the courtyard.

The next day, Lu Zhou bade them farewell after breakfast.
Constable Ji came over to talk about what happened at Dongfang Mansion.
After Second Aunt’s children heard that their mother had been jailed, they came back crying last night and wanted to create a scene so that Old Master Dongfang could save Second Aunt.
However, they were rejected by Old Master Dongfang.
When Dongfang Luoyu, who had always been pampered, saw that her father was reluctant, she threatened to starve herself to death if Second Aunt did not return.
She initially thought that her father, who had always doted on her, would yield to her. Yet, Old Master Dongfang left after saying some words.
Lu Sheng asked Constable Ji what Old Master Dongfang said.
Constable Ji smiled mysteriously and said, “Mdm... No, Miss Lu, you would never have expected this.”
“Speak your mind. There’s no need to act mysterious.”
Chu Sihan’s cold voice rang and Constable Ji stood up in shock.
