Lu Ming chose the second option without hesitation. He did not mind beating Lu Ze up a few more times.

So Lu Ming walked out from the shadows. “You want to take someone away forcibly in broad daylight just because your confession didn’t work? This is a society governed by law. Do you really think that the Lu family can rely on its power to deceive people in Shanghai?”

Lu Ze looked at him in disbelief. His body instinctively recalled the experience of getting beaten up and he was tongue-tied. “W-why are you here?!”

“No matter where I go, I bump into this devil!” he thought.

The corners of Lu Ming’s lips curled up. “I also want to ask why you are here. This is really a coincidence. Perhaps… this is heaven’s arrangement? After all, every time I see you, you seem to be doing bad things.”

Before Lu Ze could say anything, the middle-aged woman in the floral blouse said indignantly, “They are in a couple’s fight, so why are you meddling? Do you really think you’re the messenger of justice? If you interfere with their reconciliation, can you bear the responsibility?”

She looked around at the people around and continued, “Do you guys think so?”

“Yeah! This is between the couple in the first place. Why bother to cause trouble for yourself? Let them handle their own family affair. It will be a sin to break them up.”

“I just arrived. What happened here? Could it be that when he was confessing, he suddenly realized that the person he confessed to had a boyfriend? Coincidentally, the girlfriend’s boyfriend happened to be here?”

“That’s completely wrong. They’re a couple who are having a squabble. That rich second-generation heir was apologizing. Another man thought that there was really a conflict between them, so he came out to stop them. I think he was just too impulsive. Maybe this couple won’t appreciate it!”

“Are they really a couple?”

“Of course. Can’t you see that the man in the black suit is so affectionate?”

…

Upon hearing the support from so many people, the initially timid Lu Ze puffed up his chest again and said, “They’re right. This is a family matter between Ms. Chu and me. It has nothing to do with you!”

“Family matter?”

Lu Ming repeated the two words and said meaningfully, “Lu Ze, I don’t know that you have a girlfriend. I remember that you were pursuing another person recently.”

Lu Ze hid his guilty conscience and said, “It, it’s none of your business!”

The next second, there was a loud slap and the right side of his face swelled up instantly. Caught off guard, he widened his eyes and tried to get his subordinates to retaliate. “Go!”

However, there was no reaction at all. Lu Ming pointed at a certain spot and said, “Your subordinates seem to be even more timid than you.”

Lu Ze turned around and saw those people trembling in a corner.

“A bunch of trash!”

The thin man’s smile was uglier than crying. He said, “Young, Young Master Lu, it’s not that we’re timid, but he’s really too powerful. Even if there were 10 of us, we wouldn’t be able to beat him.”

“Young man, you have to calm down! You have nothing to do with them. It’s a little problematic to attack them directly, right? They’ve already said that this has nothing to do with you. If you make another move, I’ll call the police!”

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman quickly took out her phone and threatened Lu Ming.

Seeing that someone was still on his side, Lu Ze continued, “This is my girlfriend. Isn’t it normal for me to do something to her?”

“That’s right. And in my opinion, the fault is not entirely with this young man. Young lady, listen to my advice and accept his apology. I’ve seen him decorating this place earlier on. Don’t let his good intentions go to waste.”

Her words implied that Chu Jinyu did not know what was good for her.

Lu Ze added, “I specially got someone to ship these flowers from overseas. Jinyu, you…”

Another thud. This time it was the left side of his face.

Immediately after, the successive sounds of slapping rang out like raindrops falling on the ground. Lu Ze’s face swelled like a pig’s head and saliva flowed uncontrollably from the corner of his mouth. He looked extremely miserable.

Everyone gasped.

“Isn’t this too heavy-handed? Is there a personal grudge? Look! You’ve beaten him silly! Isn’t this lawless? This person is so scary!”

“Why don’t we call the police quickly! Such a person is really too dangerous.”

“That’s right! Has anyone called the police? Also, call an ambulance. Let’s go farther away so we don’t get affected.”

…

The woman in the floral blouse said with an ugly expression, “This is too much! I’ll call the police now and get them to arrest you!”

Before she could dial, Lu Ming wiped his hands slowly and said, “This is my family matter. What has it got to do with you?”

“Family matter?”

Everyone was stunned.

“What is going on?” they wondered.

The woman in the floral blouse vocalized the question in their hearts. “What kind of family matter is this? Could it be that you have something to do with this woman?”

“Of course not.”

Lu Ming answered calmly.

The auntie was a little angry. “Are you kidding us? Since you have nothing to do with this woman, how can you say it’s a family matter?”

“I am this person’s elder brother, Lu Ming. My brother has mental issues. He often nags a woman and begs to date her. So I sent him to the hospital. I only received the news today that he had run out on his own. Now I want to take him back to the hospital.”

Lu Ming looked at her and paused for a moment. Then he said, “It’s my family matter. What has it got to do with you?”

The sudden turn of events stunned the onlookers for a few seconds. “These two are actually brothers?” they thought.

They looked at Lu Ze and then at Lu Ming. They looked alike but not quite alike. Moreover, according to the other party, his younger brother was crazy.

Judging from his behavior just now, he seemed like a normal person. There was nothing wrong with him. But looking at him now, he did look a little silly.

“So how credible are this person’s words?” they wondered.

The auntie sized Lu Ming up suspiciously and said, “Do you have evidence? Anyone can…”

“Is this alright?”

Lu Ming took out his identity card. The date of birth, name, and birthplace were clearly written on it.

The person beside him craned his head, trying to read the words.

“Did anyone see clearly? I was too far away to see clearly.”

“I saw the first line clearly. He has the same surname as that rich second-generation heir. It’s probably close to the mark. They should be brothers.”

“In other words, is what this person said true? It’s really not good to have such a crazy brother!”

…

The woman in the floral blouse looked at the identity card for a long time and said doubtfully. “Do you have any other proof?”
