Chapter 198: Chapter 198: President Li Actually Came with a Will
Lu Youye is the one among the five brothers in the Lu Family who looks the most like a child.
The eldest, second, and third brothers need no mention.
Fourth Brother, although only born half a minute before Fifth Brother, had a childhood illness and was isolated from society, coupled with his naturally high IQ, always displayed a mentality far beyond his peers.
And Fifth Brother, always simple-minded and naive, whether happy or sad, shows all his emotions on his face.
For instance, when Lu Sheng first arrived at the Lu Family, Fifth Brother’s hostility and dislike for her were not concealed at all.
But later, he was the first one to change his impression and began to treat her like a treasure, protecting her and even ready to fight others for her without hesitation.
Lu Sheng knows Lu Youye’s nature too well.
On the surface rebellious, but inside gentle like a child, and indeed had all the traits of a sis-con maxed out.
So seeing Fifth Brother now hugging her and crying like a little crybaby, Lu Sheng didn’t find it strange at all.
Actually, it’s because he really cares about his little sister and also feels insecure.
It seems like if she starts dating Li Muchen, she will spend most of her time with Li Muchen, reducing the time spent with her brothers.
Reluctant, just thinking about it hurts, so feeling frustrated and aggrieved, he asks such seemingly childish questions.
Seeing Fifth Brother’s red eyes, Lu Sheng wanted to laugh yet felt heartache.
Her heart softened, she turned around to hug Lu Youye and patted his back, asking, "Brother really doesn’t want me to date?"
"Of course not!"
Lu Youye didn’t hesitate, thought for a moment, and added, "No...not right now, you’ve just come home, and you’ve already caught the eye of that Li Muchen."
"If you start dating him, won’t you have to spend a lot of time with him? After school and on weekends, you would have to go visit him, leaving no time to play games with me."
"Plus, he’s so old, and not a monk, being with you he will definitely not be able to resist getting too close, even thinking about it makes me want to fight him!"
Lu Youye got more agitated as he spoke, but Lu Sheng chuckled.
"Not at all, didn’t brother see when I entered? I was the one who was all over him." Lu Sheng said earnestly.
"Li Muchen is a very gentlemanly person, he always respects my wishes first, so he wouldn’t do things that take advantage of me."
"As for what brother said about visiting him all the time, I have my own things to do, and he’s usually busy too, I won’t always be sticking to him."
"Having a boyfriend is important, but playing games with brother is also crucial, so brother, stop worrying."
"Whether I’m in a relationship or not, whether I have someone I love or not, brother is the most important person to me, nothing will change."
"...Really?" Hearing Lu Sheng’s words, Lu Youye immediately raised his dewy puppy eyes.
"Of course it’s true." Lu Sheng nodded seriously.
Then the next second, Lu Youye said, "So if Li Muchen and I both fell into the sea, who would you save?"
"...But Fifth Brother, Li Muchen can swim, I can’t."
Lu Sheng thought for a moment and said, "How about I jump in, and let Li Muchen save us both?"
Pfft—
What a weird image.
Lu Youye burst out laughing at what Lu Sheng said.
The conversation between Lu Sheng and Lu Youye in the kitchen was as childish as children playing house.
However, inside the study, the conversation between Lu Jingyan and Li Muchen was completely of another style.
After entering the study, Li Muchen sat down in front of Lu Jingyan and greeted him: "Mr. Lu."
"I was prepared to visit a week ago at the gathering but was delayed by some accidents."
"However, today, by a happy coincidence, I got this opportunity, so it shouldn’t be considered late."
It really is quite a coincidence.
Lu Jingyan still feels agitated when he thinks about the scene he saw upon pushing the door open.
Last time at the garden festival at Shengjing High School, Lu Jingyan told Li Muchen that regardless of how deep, genuine his affection for Shengsheng might be, they still needed to have a serious discussion afterwards.
Today, he wanted to see how this Li Muchen would prove his sincerity towards Shengsheng.
Lu Jingyan’s expression was stern as he sat upright on the sofa, embodying the authority of the head of the Lu Family.
The next second, he saw Li Muchen handing over the document envelope that his assistant had just brought him.
"What is this?" Lu Jingyan slightly frowned, taking the envelope while casually asking.
Then he saw Li Muchen, his expression calm and collected as he spoke, "It’s my will."
——???
Hearing this, Lu Jingyan’s hand trembled, nearly dropping the envelope to the floor.
"...Huh?" He looked at Li Muchen incredulously, his voice shaking slightly, "President Li, what did you say is in here?"
He hadn’t misheard, had he?
Who brings a will with them the first time they visit to chat with their brother-in-law!
And Li Muchen is only twenty-five, right? Why would such a young man write a will, unless he has some hidden illness??
Li Muchen was not surprised by Lu Jingyan’s reaction, probably guessing what he was thinking, and said, "Mr. Lu, rest assured, there is nothing wrong with my health."
"I made this will just last week, after careful consideration. It is the most direct proof I can offer of my genuine love for Shengsheng."
"This will has been notarized by professionals, evaluating all of my personal assets, including all my bank accounts, real estate vehicles, shares, and investment incomes, both movable and immovable."
"For specific item details and the total amount, Mr. Lu can browse through the documents inside."
Li Muchen said, "The content of the will I have made states that no matter what the future relationship between me and Shengsheng is—whether it’s a romantic relationship or marriage, or even if there is no relationship at all."
"From the moment I sign this will, should anything happen to me in the future, she will be the sole heir to all my assets at that time."
"The entire Li Group, too, will be managed by her."
"This will is permanently valid once notarized. I assure you, whether now or in the future, I will not make any alterations or revoke it."
Hearing this, Lu Jingyan was so shocked that he was speechless.
However, when he opened the document and saw the estimated total value at the end of the asset list, his mouth fell open.
Hundreds, thousands, millions... billions, tens of billions, hundreds of billions, trillions.
This number is nearly a hundred times the total assets of the entire Lu Family.
Lu Jingyan knew Li Muchen was wealthy, but he had no idea that his personal assets alone had reached such astronomical figures.
And his words, they were truly significant.
No matter what the future holds with Shengsheng, she would be the sole heir to all these assets. What does this imply?
It meant that Li Muchen was staking his entire fortune to prove his sincerity here, all for a future with Shengsheng that seemed so uncertain right now.
This depth of love is really...
truly profound.
Lu Jingyan had always thought that Li Muchen was a shrewd businessman at heart, one who wouldn’t make a deal that would lose him money, so he had to be cautious.
But now it seems that this... this is what falling hopelessly in love looks like!
Li Muchen was acting with absolute resolution, not leaving any route for retreat for himself.
However, this is not the end yet.
