Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 671 Showdown

Lu Shaohua was hesitating, wondering whether he should confess to Zeng Yuling. To be honest, Lu Shaohua didn't want to deceive Zeng Yuling, especially since the birth of his child with Qin Sichen, Lu Shaohua didn't want to deceive Zeng Yuling even more.

However, Lu Shaohua had to consider some issues at this moment. He had already felt very sorry for Zeng Yuling. After having Zeng Yuling, he also brought An Teng Chiyo along. What was even more outrageous was that the three of them actually slept in the same bed.

Well, that's nothing, Zeng Yuling was also willing to do it, but later on, Lu Shaohua did something else, Huo Xiaoyue won't say much, it's a recognized fact, Zeng Yuling had already regarded Huo Xiaoyue as a sister a long time ago.

Having three children was already excessive for Lu Shaohua, and now, he and Qin Sichen even have a child. This is really a bit hard to understand. But he was helpless that time. Qin Sichen was drugged and Lu Shaohua had to save him, forcing Lu Shaohua to take responsibility for what he had done.

Lu Shaohua is a responsible person. He will not kick a woman away after having sex with her. Eventually, Qin Sichen became one of his regular lovers.

Behind every successful man, there are many women. Lu Shaohua knows this very well and he also believes that Zeng Yuling can understand this. But the problem now is that his daughter is born and Lu Shaohua has to face these problems.

hide?

It's not that Lu Shaohua hasn't thought about it, but can he do it? He can hide it for a while, but not forever. Besides, it would be unfair to Lu Yuting to continue hiding it. She is also his own flesh and blood. Lu Shaohua will not hold back on this aspect.

But what if I tell Zeng Yuling about this?

What would Zeng Yuling think? What would her reaction be? These were all things Lu Shaohua could not have anticipated.

This is also the origin of Lu Shaohua's inner conflict. He really made Zeng Yuling angry. She couldn't accept it for a while and was unhappy. But if he continued to hide it, not only would it be revealed in the end, but it would also make the situation out of control.

More importantly, the longer the secret is kept secret, the greater the harm it will cause to both Lu Yuting and Zeng Yuling.

Confess? Hide?

Lu Shaohua had no third choice. Either he had to confess and fight for what was due to Zeng Yuling, or he had to keep it secret for as long as he could.

After thinking it over, Lu Shaohua lost all desire to sleep. He didn't know what to do. Two different voices started a battle in his mind...

In the end, reason prevailed, and Lu Shaohua decided to confess and seek Zeng Yuling's forgiveness. However, it was obviously not the right time yet. Zeng Yuling was already extremely tired and fell into a deep sleep. Lu Shaohua could only wait until tomorrow to find a good time to tell her.

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Lu Shaohua woke up early. He thought Zeng Yuling was still asleep, but when Lu Shaohua looked at Zeng Yuling's rosy face, he found that he was wrong. Zeng Yuling's bright eyes had already opened.

Zeng Yuling had woken up a long time ago. This was Lu Shaohua's first instinct, and in fact it was true. Zeng Yuling had indeed woken up a long time ago, but after waking up, she did not call Lu Shaohua. Instead, she stared at Lu Shaohua's face, somewhat absorbed.

There was no expression on Zeng Yuling's face, and she even looked a little dazed. When she made eye contact with Lu Shaohua, she was a little evasive, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Helplessly, Lu Shaohua just smiled and hugged Zeng Yuling tightly with both hands. After a long time, he asked, "You woke up a long time ago."

"Yeah." Zeng Yuling nodded gently, as if she was too lazy to speak, and just responded.

"What are you thinking about?" Lu Shaohua asked again.

"No...I didn't think about anything." Zeng Yuling replied hesitantly.

Lu Shaohua realized that there was a problem, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out what the problem was. He immediately organized his words and began to confess his "crime". "Yuling, I have something to tell you..."

Lu Shaohua deliberately dragged out the tone, and then without waiting for Zeng Yuling to say anything, he mustered up the courage to continue. "You should know Qin Sichen, um, she is the CEO of Phoenix Group... um, I have a daughter with her..."

Having said this, Lu Shaohua said no more and waited quietly for Zeng Yuling's criticism.

But to Lu Shaohua's surprise, Zeng Yuling did not have any special reaction. She was very calm, as if she had already known about this matter.

This made Lu Shaohua very strange. Logically, Zeng Yuling would have some reaction, either crying or making a fuss, but now it was the exact opposite. Zeng Yuling was very calm, so calm that it was scary.

"Could it be that she knew it a long time ago?" Lu Shaohua couldn't help but guess secretly.

However, just as Lu Shaohua guessed, Zeng Yuling did know something, and Zeng Yuling's next words confirmed it all. "I'm glad you can be honest with me, really, I'm glad you didn't choose to hide it..."

Zeng Yuling spoke with gritted teeth. While speaking, she did not forget to take a breath in an attempt to stay calm, but she failed to do it in the end. By the end, Zeng Yuling's voice had become choked and she began to cry.

What else could Lu Shaohua do? He could only bite the bullet and hug Zeng Yuling tightly, giving her the necessary comfort without saying anything. Perhaps letting Zeng Yuling cry was the best way to vent her grievances.

I have to say that Zeng Yuling is no longer the Zeng Yuling of the past. She can control herself very well both in terms of mentality and character. Although she felt extremely wronged, she only cried for a while and then calmed down.

"In fact, I have known about you living with Sister Chen for a long time. I also knew that you gave birth to Xiao Yuting. I originally wanted to go to Hong Kong to take a look, but I couldn't do it. I really couldn't do it. I was afraid that I would not be able to suppress my grievances and explode..." Zeng Yuling said while wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Although Zeng Yuling usually appears gentle and soft, she is actually a girl who is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside. She likes to keep many things in her heart and not say them out loud.

This kind of person is the most terrifying. If they can't bear it anymore and explode, the result will be unpredictable. It is precisely because she understands her own character that Zeng Yuling did not go to Hong Kong and pretended that nothing had happened.

But it’s no longer possible now. Lu Shaohua took the initiative to confess, which brought great comfort to Zeng Yuling. The grievances she had endured for a long time also disappeared. However, sadness was inevitable, and it was normal to shed tears.

Lu Shaohua didn't say a word, and he couldn't say a word. He could only use his body temperature to comfort Zeng Yuling.

Zeng Yuling spoke intermittently, and after a long period of time to regulate her breathing, she slowly calmed down and spoke again. "Not only do I know about the birth of Xiao Yuting, I also know about you and Xiaoyue. Well, you may find it strange, why do I know everything?"

Lu Shaohua did not speak and remained silent, because he knew that Zeng Yuling did not need his answer at this time.

This is indeed the case. Zeng Yuling paused for a few seconds before continuing, "Xiaoyue called me to tell me everything, including her affairs and Xiao Yuting's affairs. Well, she was very frank. Humph, unlike you, who kept it from me for so long."

The truth was revealed. Lu Shaohua did not expect that the informer was Huo Xiaoyue. Lu Shaohua thought that the informer was the country's intelligence chief Zeng Jianguo.

As the director of the National Security Bureau, Zeng Jianguo is in charge of a huge intelligence network. How could Zeng Jianguo not notice Lu Shaohua, whom he had chosen to be his grandson-in-law? The relationship between Lu Shaohua and Qin Sichen could be hidden from many people, but not from Zeng Jianguo.

If it was Zeng Jianguo who reported the secret, Lu Shaohua might not be able to do anything to him. But since it was Huo Xiaoyue who reported the secret, it was completely different. At this moment, Lu Shaohua even thought about severely "punishing" Huo Xiaoyue after returning to Hong Kong.

But Zeng Yuling was like a worm in Lu Shaohua's stomach. She seemed to know Lu Shaohua's intentions and couldn't help but feel sorry for Huo Xiaoyue. "Don't blame Xiaoyue. I forced her to say it. She had no choice but to say it."

Come to think of it, Huo Xiaoyue was happy that she had a relationship with Lu Shaohua, but as a girl, especially a girl like Huo Xiaoyue, it was impossible for her to tell everyone about this kind of thing.

But now, Huo Xiaoyue told Zeng Yuling, the queen, about her relationship with Lu Shaohua. If no one forced her, she would never tell it.

What else can Lu Shaohua say? Zeng Yuling is the boss now, so Lu Shaohua has to give in to her in everything. "I don't blame her. I don't blame her."

He said this, but no one knew whether he thought this way in his heart or not, only Lu Shaohua knew.

"Okay, now that everything has been revealed, I don't want to say anything. I know that I can't tie you down by myself, and your ability in that area is... very... strong. It's impossible for Chiyo and I to satisfy you alone, so it's only right to find a few more." Zeng Yuling sighed, changed the subject, and asked. "Can you tell me what's going on between you and Sister Chen?"

Zeng Yuling knew about Qin Sichen's affair, but she didn't think that a woman several years older than Lu Shaohua would stay in Lu Shaohua's body, let alone an office romance, so how did all this happen? Zeng Yuling was very curious.

"She was drugged, a very strong drug. If she hadn't been treated in time... that would have put her life in danger." Lu Shaohua was very frank, without any embellishment, and was straightforward. "Things have happened, and I must take responsibility. Even if Si Chen doesn't need me to take responsibility, as a man, I must do this."

When it comes to responsibility, Lu Shaohua does not feel guilty at all. Lu Shaohua never hides these things, especially when facing Zeng Yuling. He thinks there is no need to cover up too much. Being responsible is being responsible, not making excuses.

"what……"

Zeng Yuling was surprised. She didn't expect the whole thing to be like this. She was a little overwhelmed. However, this surprise came and went quickly. Zeng Yuling quickly calmed down and said lightly after a long time. "So that's how it is."
