Xinyun City, the night deepens, and the city remains as lively and bustling as ever, with bright lights and a busy nightlife.

A luxurious extended Rolls-Royce was heading toward an upscale banquet venue in Xinyun City.

“Dad, I already told you I have something else to do. You can just go to this private party by yourself, what’s the big deal?” Lu Ming complained to Lu Kun while sitting in the back seat of the car.

Who would be in a good mood when they were pulled out of a warm and cozy place? At that moment, Lu Ming truly felt the frustration.

“I warned you not to be hanging around with those little starlets all day, and look what happened now. The juicy piece of the Wang family business we were about to get is gone just like that,” Lu Kun sighed in frustration. “You still don’t know how to be more careful with your behavior.”

“Dad, Feng Ning is my legitimate girlfriend, how can you call it messing around? Besides, she’s carrying our Lu family’s child.”

Lu Ming retorted, but was met with a disdainful snort from Lu Kun. “Who knows whose child is in her belly?”

“Dad, how can you say that?”

Lu Ming was angry, but ever since he was young, his father had instilled such fear in him that he dared not lose his temper.

“Son, it’s not that I have a prejudice against that circle, but that woman just looks floozy. If you want her to enter our Lu family, I advise you to give up that idea,” Lu Kun’s words completely negated the possibility of Feng Ning marrying into the Lu family.

“Dad, you don’t have the right to do that. Feng Ning is already carrying my child. By saying that, you’re not only insulting her, but also insulting me.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Kun didn’t even look up. He casually said, “If you want to marry her, it’s not impossible. Let her give birth to the child first. Once the paternity test proves that the child is indeed of the Lu family, I’ll let her into the family.”

“Dad, if people find out about this, how will Feng Ning be able to live her life…” Lu Ming tried to defend his woman, but Lu Kun waved his hand to silence him before he could finish his sentence.

“Aside from this, I won’t accept any other outcome, so you don’t need to waste your breath. Marrying this woman will bring no benefit to the Lu family or your future. And to make matters worse, she’s so reckless, getting pregnant before marriage. Do you really think the Lu family can just let anyone in like some stray cat or dog? That’s an impossible dream.”

Lu Ming knew his father’s character well and understood that once his father made up his mind, it was hard to change it. Not only was he the current head of the Lu family business, but he also controlled all the funds Lu Ming had access to. Without that money, Lu Ming would find it extremely difficult to survive in Xinyun City.

“Alright, stop sighing. Your dad is doing this for your own good.” Lu Kun saw that his son remained silent, knowing that although he didn’t speak up, he was still dissatisfied deep down.

“Cheer up. There are many talented young people at this banquet. You should take the opportunity to interact with them.” Just then, the car stopped, and Lu Kun was still placing great importance on tonight’s banquet.

The father and son entered the reception hall together. Chen Ze, wearing a custom-tailored expensive suit, was smiling gracefully and elegantly, greeting the guests at the banquet.

“Mr. Chen, it’s a pleasure to meet you,” Lu Kun immediately noticed him and walked over to greet him warmly.
