Chapter 1177: The Real Master Of The Lu Family

Lu Bai did not notice Ji Nan's expression and asked unhappily, Where are Ah Yan and Xiang'er? As the head of the family, I didn't attend the ancestral worship ceremony. How did they hold it? Or was the ancestral worship ceremony postponed?

The ancestral worship ceremony is a big matter for the Lu family. Our ancestors are all waiting for us to pay our respects. How could I have missed it? Ji Nan, quickly call Lu Yan over!

By the way, why is the Lu family so quiet? Has everyone else left? They usually stay back for a family banquet and spend the night here. What exactly is going on?

Lu Bai had a bad feeling. He did not understand how he missed the ancestral worship ceremony. If he did not appear, Ah Yan would definitely have come to wake him up. Hence, he instructed Ji Nan to call Lu Yan over. He wanted to ask what was going on.

However, when Ji Nan heard his words, he did not react at all and remained where he was.

Lu Bai frowned and berated loudly, Are you deaf? I told you to call Ah Yan over. Hurry up and go!

A trace of mockery appeared on Ji Nan's calm face. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, but his expression was still as respectful as before. Chairman Lu, the ancestral worship ceremony has ended.

Lu Bai widened his eyes in disbelief. How is that possible? I didn't attend. How could they open the door of the ancestral hall without permission? This is against the rules!

Lu Xiang naturally did not dare to casually open the door of the ancestral hall. To Lu Yan, not opening the door of the ancestral hall was a good thing. This way, Gu Zheng would have no reason to enter.

At the thought of this, his expression suddenly changed. He slammed his fist on the bed and said hatefully, It's Gu Zheng! Only he could've done such a deviant thing! That little bastard actually dared to rashly open the door of the ancestral hall

Don't be agitated, Chairman Lu. President Gu didn't do that. Don't blame President Gu for everything. Ji Nan interrupted Lu Bai, then a trace of a sneer appeared on the corners of his mouth. His voice was still respectful, but his tone carried a trace of provocation.

Lu Bai instantly choked as he looked up at his assistant in disbelief. How did this assistant who was once weak and obedient to him become so arrogant?

He was stunned for a few seconds and even suspected that he was hallucinating. You say that again.

Chairman Lu, you're old and your ears aren't working well anymore. Ji Nan's tone was filled with mockery. He recalled Eldest Miss' instructions on how he should treat Lu Bai.

He casually leaned against the chair, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Then I'll repeat myself. I told you not to blame President Gu for everything.

This time, Lu Bai heard it clearly and was sure that it was not an illusion. He did not expect his assistant, who had always been submissive, to criticize him for Gu Zheng.

The anger in Lu Bai's heart surged. He struggled to get up from the bed, but he had just woken up and his body had not recovered. He staggered and held the bed to steady himself. He pointed at Ji Nan and shouted while trembling, What did you say?! Ji Nan, are you crazy?

Ji Nan's expression was indifferent as he glanced at him coldly with a disdainful smile.

Lu Bai felt as if he had been struck by lightning. A trace of horror appeared in his eyes. Y-You're one of Gu Zheng's men?

It doesn't matter who I am. Ji Nan crossed his arms and looked at him wantonly. Chairman Lu, if you have time, you should think about things thoroughly. You didn't even attend, yet the Lu family's ancestral worship ceremony has already been completed. Will you still have a place in the Lu family in the future?

Lu Bai abruptly looked up. At this moment, he should not be paying attention to who Ji Nan was. What was important was who had hosted the ancestral worship ceremony. As the head of the family, he had not even attended. Who would be so bold as to open the door to the ancestral hall?

He pondered for a moment and felt that only Gu Zheng had the guts to do such a thing!

Who else could it be but Gu Zheng? I didn't even attend, but the Lu family still proceeded with the ceremony. Only he would've done that! Ah Yan is a child I raised. He wouldn't have done that!

Lu Yan indeed wouldn't have. Ji Nan sneered. You gave him the power and status he has today. If you didn't attend, he naturally wouldn't dare to hold the ancestral worship ceremony. However, there's still someone in the Lu family who has the right to do this.

Who else? Lu Bai roared.

Ji Nan smiled as if he was deliberately making Lu Bai anxious. His voice was low and slow. Chairman Lu, don't forget that other than you, there's another master in the Lu family!

He was the head of the Lu family, so how could there be another master? Ever since he took over the Lu family, he had the final say in everything. Only

Lu Bai's expression froze. A person suddenly appeared in his mind.
