Chapter 468: Kneel Down

If they took their time, they might just lose Lu Xingzhi without achieving their goals.

“Tomorrow morning,” Lu Xingzhi answered. “There’s plenty of work awaiting.”

Mrs. Du panicked hearing Lu Xingzhi’s reply. If he were to return to the platoon, the Du family would not be able to locate him as they did not have connections in the platoon.

“Master Lu, yesterday’s incident was Rongzhen and Ning’s fault; they were being disrespectful. What do you say, Master Lu? Would you forgive them?” Du Shihua was anxious as well, he could ignore the plight of Mr. Zhou but could not ignore the fact that his son’s wellbeing now clung dearly onto their meeting with the Divine Doctor.

“Didn’t Ms. Zhou say it herself? Kneel down and beg for my wife’s forgiveness.” Lu Xingzhi looked annoyed. “If you want to apologize, do it genuinely. If you don’t want to, get lost!”

Lu Xingzhi’s temper was reaching its tipping point. He had no patience at all for people who treated his wife badly.

“If you don’t want to apologize, leave, don’t waste your time here. You’re better off using that time to look for a good lawyer so that Ms. Zhou’s father can be released sooner.” Jiang Yao turned her back against them and continued her enjoyment of the pleasant weather.

She was not a ruthless person; she just could not stand Zhou Ning’s egotistical attitude.

Plus, Zhou Weiqi was right here. He had all the rights to the Zhous’ apologies!

Mrs. Zhou was still hesitant and reluctant but hearing Mr. Zhou being mentioned, her face turned a shade darker.

They understood that without Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Ning getting down on their knees apologizing, nothing could be done about Mr. Zhou, plus they would never get to meet the Divine Doctor.

Zhou Changkang wanted badly to give his sister a lesson she would never forget! What a burden she was! He could ignore the plight of Du Chen, but he could not leave his father alone. If Mr. Zhou was sent to prison, it was the end of the Zhou family.

He hated Lu Xingzhi, but what else could he do? This was the reality; only the strong had the power to manipulate the weak. Did he not used to do the same to people below the Zhou family?

Observing Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao’s interaction with Zhou Weiqi had Zhou Changkang realized that Lu Xingzhi treated Zhou Weiqi just like his own brother. He did this for Zhou Weiqi. Too bad the Zhou family never treated Zhou Weiqi well; he would not help them.

“Get on your knees, Ning!” Zhou Changkang urged.

Mrs. Zhou looked at her son, who looked frightening, and immediately dropped on her knees. She pulled at Zhou Ning, “Get down! You know what happens if you don’t! Zhou family will be no more. At that point, you are nothing!”

Zhou Ning, who was in tears, was pushed down by Zhou Changkang and Mrs. Zhou. Even though she was reluctant, she knew that with her dad in prison, she would ultimately lose all her rights to do as she pleased.

“Master Lu, Mrs. Lu, we are very sorry for yesterday. It was our fault. We were being very disrespectful, please forgive the Zhou family just this once!” Mrs. Zhou bawled her heart out. She cried because her husband was taken away, because her impulsive actions yesterday caused so much misery and because of how humiliating and disgraceful it was to be kneeling down.
