Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1192: Chapter 1193: Persuading Her to Leave

Connections determine the foundation and strength of a family, and establishing a powerful network is not easy. It requires tremendous human resources, material resources, financial resources, and energy, and the painstaking efforts of several generations can finally bring it into being.

The saying goes, ”A single tree cannot make a forest.” With only individual strength, one cannot achieve greatness. But with a vast network, whatever you want to do can be handled with ease.

Therefore, connections must be carefully maintained, and losing them would be a loss far greater than millions.

”...Old Master, Shaojun is right, Qingqing, after all, still bears the surname Chiang. She’s been living with us for so long, it’s time for her to go back and accompany her parents.” Lu Zhenhua advised Old Master Loo.

He loved Chiang Qing, but when it comes to family interests, this niece couldn’t compare, of course. The Loo Family has other people, too. They can’t just ignore the whole family’s interests for one niece, right?

Now, many people in the Loo Family, including those who are already married and the wives and children, all complain about him, the head of the family.

He didn’t want Chiang Qing to leave, but during this turbulent time, as his brother-in-law suggested, going to the United States to avoid the storm might be a good idea.

Old Master Loo’s face turned somber. He was old now, and he couldn’t even protect a child.

”Dad, our Loo Family didn’t have it easy getting to where we are...” Lu Zhenhua kept speaking despite the stern look in the old master’s eyes: ”Back in the day, you walked the streets enduring countless hardships. After years of hard work, the Loo Family has reached its current scale. You can’t just watch it be destroyed overnight, can you?”

”That’s right, old master, Qingqing is just going back to the Chiang Family. She is Jiang Conghe and his sister’s precious daughter, how could they harm her? Going to the United States, getting some experience, wouldn’t hurt. She could come back after some time!” Lu Zhenhua’s wife, Mrs. Lu, also reassured: ”We’ll cover all the expenses for her abroad, no need for her family to pay. Whatever she needs.”

”Jiang Conghe sees Qingqing as a disgrace now, didn’t you know? Sending her back would only mean allowing her father to torment her?” said Old Master Loo.

”That’s just talk. A tiger, though fierce, does not eat its cubs. What else could happen? It’s not like we’re sending her to her death or anything. It’s just the United States. If not, she can stay at the Chiang Family. Dad, Shaojun hasn’t been able to close a deal in days. Look at him—he’s so worn out, I’m afraid he can’t hold on!” Mrs. Lu continued, wiping away tears that weren’t there.

”That’s because he lacks capability.” Old Master Loo glared.

Thinking of this grandson, his heart ached as well. He had two sons and two daughters. His eldest, Zhenhua, only had Lu Shaojun, who regrettably didn’t have impressive talents. It would suffice if he could at least maintain the status quo. His second son, Zhenwei...

Back then, he was willing to sacrifice everything for a woman, leading to an early death, leaving only a daughter behind.

This vast Loo Family estate, for how many more years could he oversee it? And whom should he choose as the successor?

To Old Master Loo, Chiang Qing resembled him the most, so he cherished her. Xiao Tian was also smart, so he offered his help. But regardless of talent, they did not carry the Loo surname.

And these years, the Loo Family continued to lack male offspring. Could it be due to being ruthless despite wealth?

A surge of frustration rose in Old Master Loo’s chest, and he coughed several times.

”I am old now, and if none of you can bear to see this, let her go back then!” Old Master Loo said, waving his hand languidly.

Lu Zhenhua and his wife were immediately overjoyed, flattering him with words of praise.
