Jiang Nanshu looked up at him, but did not respond.
Liang Ciqiu did not mind and started chatting with Father Lu, asking about his health.
Father Lu was rather fond of his illegitimate son, and with someone to divert the topic, he became much more amiable.
Lu Mother kept a cold face throughout. Logically, she should be happy that her son was so outstanding, but she couldn't feel this emotion. All she wanted was for Lu Qingyan to support her family, who at least cared about her, even though the company's development was not going well and they did not blame her.
But her son did not think the same way, leaving the Shang Family's business empty and on the brink of collapse if Lu Qingyan withdrew his investment.
Thus, the Shang Family's survival now depended entirely on the whims of Lu Qingyan.
She looked at Lu Qingyan, who was asking Jiang Nanshu how he was with warmth and suppressed the urge to send Jiang Nanshu away.
The family banquet passed in silence and awkwardness.
