Chapter 012: Lu Hechen's Will

Mrs. Lu immediately arched an eyebrow, "Weilan, one must not be too greedy!"

"Mother, I'm not greedy, what I want is what I should rightfully have! I am now Lu Hechen's wife, and since I cannot change this fact, I've accepted it!

I've also heard that thirty-five percent of the Lu Family shares belonged to the late Lu Hechen's mother.

Lu Hechen died unexpectedly in a car accident at the age of twenty-nine, a tragedy as he was taken in the prime of his life. In recent years, everyone has basked in glory under the wise leadership of Lu Hechen.

Now that he's gone, and people are using his marriage to secure their own wealth and glory, who is really the greedy one?"

When she asked this, Lu Yuanhe was taken aback and looked at Weilan with a sharp gaze.

Mrs. Lu was also startled and met Weilan's eyes.

Shen Weilan had a pair of clear, distinct eyes. Whenever someone looked into them, they felt they were too clear, as though they could see through to the person's thoughts!

Weilan wasn't in a hurry and observed everyone's reactions.

Mrs. Lu clenched her teeth and asked sharply, "Shen Weilan, what do you mean by this? Are you suggesting someone harmed Hechen?"

"Ah, Auntie Lu, I never said that. It's curious how quick you are to confront me like this!" Weilan said and turned her gaze to Lu Yuanhe. "Uncle Lu, I suggest that we investigate this matter secretly. Perhaps there really is more to it!"

Mrs. Lu's face turned pale, and she glared fiercely at Weilan, declining to continue the conversation.

Lu Yuanhe narrowed his eyes and looked at Weilan. After a pause, he said, "Weilan, asking for so many shares really isn't appropriate. Five percent is enough!"

"Heh," Weilan chuckled lightly, stood up, "Since that's the case, there's nothing left for us to discuss."

With that, she turned to leave.

"Stop right there!" Shen Tianming barked, "You're taking advantage of the chaos to rob us!"

Weilan turned around, "Dad, if you hadn't schemed against me, I wouldn't have made such a demand! You plotted against me from the start, and now that the game has been played, you want to take back your moves. Do you think I would agree?"

Shen Tianming was at a loss for words.

Mrs. Shen said, "Weilan, twenty-five percent of the Shen Family shares and five percent of the Lu Family shares are already enough. If you continue to make a fuss, we'll have no choice but to lock you up!"

Weilan's eyes narrowed as she looked at her mother. Was this really her own mother?

"Hehe," Shen Weilan softly laughed and said, "Mom, do you really think I would come here unprepared to ask for a hundred billion in assets?"

Mrs. Shen was taken aback, "What have you done?"

"I've merely set up a program in one of my email accounts. If I don't return today, the news of Lu Hechen's demise will be sent out on a timer!"

Everyone was stunned; she had come prepared!

Lu's father looked at Weilan, a hint of light flashing in his eyes. "Weilan, let's do this: I'll give you fifteen percent, and let's not make any more trouble; too much commotion isn't good for you!"

Weilan looked at Lu's father, still unwilling to compromise, "No, I won't change my mind. Uncle Lu, call the lawyer over if you agree!"

Lu's father hesitated before finally saying, "Alright! I'll call Song Di over right away!"

Song Di?

Weilan was a bit surprised!

Shortly thereafter, Song Di arrived. Upon entering, he first cast a barely noticeable glance at Shen Weilan, his dark eyes flickering.

Weilan was puzzled. Why was Song Di here?

At that moment, Song Di said to Lu's father, "Uncle, even thirty-five percent might not be possible."

Everyone was puzzled and looked towards Song Di.

Weilan was also shocked.

Song Di gave a slight smile before explaining, "Hechen had written a will before."

"What?" Mrs. Lu was again taken aback, involuntarily speaking out.

Lu Yuanhe was also surprised, "Hechen made a will?"
