My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce
Chapter 1000 - 1000 1000 Why are you so petty

Chapter 1000: Chapter 1000: Why are you so petty! Chapter 1000: Chapter 1000: Why are you so petty! Lu Mingzhen spoke with a cold face, “Wasn’t the wet nurse selected by you after much deliberation? She took care of Niannian well before and rarely made mistakes, and isn’t it normal for a child to choke on milk? Why did you fire her? Now Niannian has no breast milk to drink!”

“What are you in such a hurry about, if this one’s been fired, I’ll just find another one for Niannian, I care about my grandson more than you do. Do you think I would really wrong him?”

Lu Mingzhen was still concerned about the physical examination project and wasn’t in the mood to argue with her over these things.

He turned to the nanny, “Go upstairs, no matter what, you must take good care of the kid.”

The two nannies nodded repeatedly and carried the kid upstairs.

After a while, the kid was finally soothed and stopped crying.

Only then did Madam Lu remember to ask Lu Mingzhen, “Didn’t you go to the Corporation? Why are you back so soon?”

Lu Mingzhen sat on the sofa, took a sip of the tea the servants had just made, and asked with a cold face, “How much kickback did you take from Lan Yuyi?”

“Kickback? What kickback?”

Madam Lu looked totally clueless, “Mingzhen, what are you talking about?”

“Stop pretending. Lingche has already told me that you took ten million in kickbacks from Lan Yuyi to secure the Corporation’s physical examination project for her.”

“I did not!”

Madam Lu hurriedly said, “Don’t listen to Lingche talking nonsense. How would he know about this? Didn’t you say the physical examination project was personally approved by you and that Lingche didn’t know about it?”

“Do you think that just because I don’t say anything, he’ll never find out? The quote from Lan’s Hospital is way too much higher than the market price! Qiao Yin’s Hospital’s quote is less than half of Lan’s Hospital’s, and she went to Lingche!”

Madam Lu’s face changed instantly, and she then gritted her teeth and said, “Her again! Why is it always her! Lingche has long divorced her, how can she still be haunting him! She really has no shame!”

“Again? What do you mean? Do you have other conflicts with her?”

Madam Lu’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly responded, “No, no, what conflicts could I have with her? I haven’t left the house in the past three months, I’ve been home taking care of Niannian every day, how could I have had any conflicts with Qiao Yin?”

“So, you did indeed take ten million in kickbacks from Lan’s Hospital, right?”

“This—I—”

Madam Lu thought that because Qiao Yin was scheming behind the scenes, Lu Mingzhen really knew everything, and she dared not pretend anymore, so she just said in a low voice, “I had no choice, I didn’t want any kickbacks; it was Yuyi who insisted on thanking me and wanted to give it to me.”

Lu Mingzhen was instantly seething with anger, and with a “bang,” he smacked the teacup onto the table. Due to his extreme rage, the teacup shattered into pieces.

He was only bluffing Madam Lu; he had no evidence, and yet she admitted it so quickly!

Enraged, he stood up, “You actually took kickbacks from Lan’s Hospital behind my back! You are the First Madam of the Lu Family, my wife, Lu Mingzhen’s wife, and your every word and deed represents the face of the Lu Family! How could you do something as foolish as taking kickbacks?! Am I short on money for you to spend? You’re willing to tarnish the reputation of the Lu Family, tarnish the Corporation’s reputation for ten million! How can you be so petty!”

Of course, Madam Lu knew that such matters could not be made public; otherwise, the Corporation and the Lu Family would certainly fall into a significant controversy. Taking kickbacks could only be done in the shadows; if brought to light, it would be a path to self-destruction, as it is against the law.

These ten million in kickbacks could directly land her in prison.

“Mingzhen, don’t be angry, this really has nothing to do with me. I just felt sorry for Yuyi, so I wanted to help her out. She gave our Lu Family such a wonderful child; I wouldn’t have been able to live with myself if I didn’t help her!”

Madam Lu portrayed herself as entirely innocent, “It was Yuyi who insisted on giving me a card, saying it was to buy some daily necessities for the child. I never expected her to give me ten million! Actually, the money isn’t much, and I haven’t even used it, I’m saving it for the child!”

“Return the money to Lan Yuyi immediately!”

“Yes, yes, yes, I’ll return it to her right away. I never wanted to keep it in the first place. Do I look like the type to be greedy for money? You’re so angry, others might think it’s some end-of-the-world issue! Calm down, when Yuyi comes, I’ll return the card to her.”

In fact, she had already spent a large part of the money. Although she hadn’t been out of the house, her expenses hadn’t decreased. She had bought one piece of winter clothing after another, a few new bags, and she hadn’t even had the chance to buy several pieces of the newly released jewelry yet!
