The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1158

"I have been suspended and am not allowed to be promoted within the next ten years! Are you satisfied now? Are you happy now? Does this make you feel good?"

Lu He's furious resounding voice kept echoing throughout the room like thunder.

Outside the room, all members of the Lu family waited without daring to come close or interrupt.

However, everyone in the family trembled when they heard what Lu He said.

Despite Lu Cang-Qiong's old age and experience, he turned pale in shock as he shivered.

"He, what do you mean? You...you got suspended? How could that happen when you weren't involved at all? You didn't even know about it. How could they punish you for it? Let me talk to Li Hong-Ze and see if anything can be done. I don't care what they do to punish me, but they can't suspend you. You are the family's future, so you must succeed."

The moment Lu Cang-Qiong heard Lu He was suspended, he panicked.

Almost the entire Lu family counted on Lu He.

If he ended up implicated, the family would lose its protection. In the future, their reputation in the capital would get affected.

In other words, if Lu He was ruined, the entire family was done for.

Hence, Lu Cang-Qiong instantly stood up and walked out demanding to see Li Hong-Ze. He wanted to ask that Lu He not be punished and wanted to take full responsibility for his own actions.

"Enough! Haven't you caused enough trouble? Our country has decided. Do you think the punishment will change because of you? Moreover, do you even know who you offended? You committed such a huge mistake. Do you really think that you alone is enough to shoulder this problem?" asked Lu He angrily.

Lu He was expecting to get promoted this year.

If he could get promoted, the Lu family will become more powerful.

However, everything had been ruined by his own father.

Even though Lu He knew nothing about the matter, Lu Cang-Qiong was his father. How could he escape punishment now that his father had committed such a mistake?

The suspension was already far lighter than Xur Hai-Sheng's punishment.

Lu Cang-Qiong finally halted in his steps.

"He, I'm so sorry...” Lu Cang-Qiong felt so guilty that he apologized to his son despite his pride.

"Dad, you didn't just let me down, you also did injustice against the entire family! In three days, our higher-ups want us to move away from our ancestral home in Yanjing and move into the suburbs."

What?

Lu He's words came as a huge blow to Lu Cang-Qiong.

Lu Cang-Qiong's face twitched, and he stood frozen to the ground.

He stared straight at his son with his eyes nearly popping from their sockets.

"M-Move from our home? H-how can they make us do that?"

This old residence was given to Lu Cang-Qiong by the country at no cost owing to his incredible military achievements.

This old residence was Lu Cang-Qiong's glory, which the country gave him as a reward for his accomplishments. When they wanted their family to move out and take back the honor they gave Lu Cang-Qiong, it meant that their family would no longer be a part of the central forces in Yanjing.

Lu Cang-Qiong never dreamed that his impulsion would end up bringing such disaster upon his son and the entire family.

He didn't foresee that the negligible seeming young man from Jiangdong would end up digging their graves.

His face was overwhelmed with regret as he raised his head to the sky and sighed bitterly.
