Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 453

Mr. Zhou left the house infuriated; nobody else knew where he went after.

"Rongzhen! You have got to do something with that awful temper of yours!" Du Shihua was exasperated. Lu Xingzhi was on the verge of granting them an audience with the Divine Doctor, only for his own sister to ruin the whole show.

"I thought she was Weiqi's woman! How should I know that Lu Xingzhi and she are related!" Mrs. Zhou was crying and she buried her face in her hands. "It was her who shoved Ning earlier in the day at the charity auction!"

"I saw Old General Liang and General Chen in a conversation with that woman at the auction today. They seem to know each other very well. Plus, she's also friendly with Chen Xuyao; she's definitely not the person you're thinking of. Lu Xingzhi auctioned off a hair pin with a ridiculous price just for her. If I am to guess, she's either his fiancée or his wife." Du Xingzhi concluded. He was sure that his guess was very close to the truth, yet, the closer it was, the more he hated his sister for her tendency to put her foot in her mouth.

Assuming that the woman really was Lu Xingzhi's spouse, why would Lu Xingzhi agree to help the Du family, after Du Rongzhen's numerous insults against the girl? Knowing Lu Xingzhi, it was a miracle if he decided not to take retribution against the Zhou family.

After some time on the road, Jiang Yao finally tugged on Lu Xingzhi's clothes and asked, "Who were you calling just now?"

"An old friend." Lu Xingzhi answered bluntly as he was still in a crummy mood. "There is no reason for my wife to receive insults again and again! I will never let that happen!"

He felt calmer after saying it out; turning toward Jiang Yao, he asked, "What are the two conditions you had in mind?"

Jiang Yao straightened her back and laughed wryly. "Two conditions. The first is to have Mr. Zhou publish a notice on all major newspapers in Jindo city declaring his severance of a father-son relationship with Zhou Weiqi. As for the second one, you know it's not easy doing a surgery, so I would like some payment as gratitude."
