Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 210 - A Marriage Proposal

-At Xu Residence-
The four families have gathered around in the huge living hall. The one leading the discussion was the old master of Xu Family, Xu Chuan. On his left side, his son, Xu Cheng was seated with a calm expression.
When Xu Chuan observed the tranquil look on his son's face, he was surprised. From the time Xu Cheng married Fu Lan, grandfather Xu had never seen his son at ease. But today even though his own daughter, Xu Liqing was involved in all the mess, Xu Cheng looked unfazed.
Grandfather Xu decided not to dwell too much into this matter and focused on addressing everyone. "I believe, everyone here knows the reason for this meeting." Every person shared a look with each other before nodding their heads. "At first, like all of you, our Xu Family also wanted to bury this scandal. But as you all have observed, someone is not letting the heat die down. And whoever is behind this must have more authority and power than all our four families combined."
Everyone sucked a cold breath since they were aware of this particular fact. "Now, I don't plan on burying this scandal. We need to look for a way to mediate the situation right now." Grandfather Xu was raging in fury at the moment but he controlled himself with much difficulty. Thinking about all the shame that Xu Liqing had brought him, he was ready to kill her right at this moment.
"We don't know about the rest but our Jun family doesn't want to have any familial ties with Lu's anymore." Jun Family's old mistress spoke with resolution.
"Old Mistress, what are you talking about? It was just a mistake on children' part. We can't be impulsive in decided anything." Lu Ge's mother spoke in favor of her son.
Grandmother Jun scoffed. "Mistake? Your family's son has made my granddaughter wear a green hat and that too even before the marriage is even announced to the world. What would he do to my Jun Li Na, if I let her be a part of your family?" She was brimming with indignation and disdain.
"Old Mistress, trust me, our Lu Ge really loves Jun Li Na. They had been together since school days. How can you even think about breaking them apart?" Lu Ge's mother looked aggrieved as she spoke with righteousness.
"The only person who broke this relationship is your own son." As grandmother Jun said it, a maid played a video on the flat screen tv in the hall. Everyone was stunned and no-one even dared to speak a word or take a loud breath.
In the video, under the flickering lights on a deserted road, a car was parked and suddenly the passenger's seat door was pushed open and Lu Ge walked out in disheveled clothes. After that, he yanked Jun Li Na out of the same door and threw her on the roadside in torn clothes. Although the lighting was dim and the angle was bad, everyone was experienced and they understood the meaning behind the video.
It wasn't known who gasped but everyone's daze was broken. "This is how your family's Lu Ge treats our precious granddaughter and you still expect us to be polite about it?" Grandmother Jun fumed while Jun Li Na's mother was sobbing by her side.
Fu Shuang was completely taken off guard as he staggered back. he clutched the side of the table until his knuckles turned white. 'Lu Ge! You bastard! I'll murder you for treating my cousin like this!' He solemnly vowed in his mind. And when he remembered the incident of Lu Ge being hospitalized, he figured that Xu Mey must have known about this all. 'You traitor! How can you hide this huge news from me!' He was cursing both Xu Mey and Lu Ge in his heart.
The Lu family went silent at the scenes that unfolded before them. They were familiar with Lu Ge's dislike for Jun Li Na but they never thought that he would forget everything and treat her this badly. Jun family won't let this go at any cost and they knew it all since Jun Li Na was the only precious daughter they had.
"At this point, I don't see any way to mediate this situation at all," grandfather Xu sighed since he was greatly affected by the video himself.
But by his side, Xu Cheng was pondering the words of Xu Mey. Since she had asked him to do it, he'd do anything for his daughter. "There is still a way out of this situation. That way all of our reputations can be saved."
Everyone gazed at Xu Cheng with furrowed brows. "Since the Jun family already doesn't want to keep this relationship. It's better that lu Ge and Jun Li Na get a divorce."
"But-" Before Lu family people could argue, Xu Cheng interrupted them.
"But this divorce will only add fuel to fire for both Xu and Lu family."
"That's what I'm trying to say. More so, people will call Xu Liqing a homewrecker. Mr. Xu should think about it again." Lu Ge's father spoke up, politely reminding him in this society a girl's reputation was the only one that could be tarnished, a man could walk away unscathed even after plenty of illicit relationships.
"Humph!" Jun Li Na's mother huffed in between her sobs and said, "So, what do you guys want? Huh? Do you want people to point their fingers at my daughter all her life telling her how her husband made her wear a green hat right before the whole world, on live tv?"
"That's not what I mea-" Lu Ge's father words were cut short as a booming voice reverberated in the hall.
"Everyone keep quiet!" All the people turned to look at Xu Cheng. "I have a solution if you guys give me a chance to speak up." When everyone finally calmed down, he went on, "The only solution that can save all of us is the marriage between Xu Liqing and Lu Ge."
As his words fell, the hall was suddenly engulfed in silence as everyone stared at him in disbelief.
"Cheng, what do you mean?" Fu Lan tugged at Xu Cheng's sleeve.
Having an affair with the young master of Lu family was one thing but Fu Lan could never let her daughter marry into a small-fry like Lu family. Although Lu family had a high status in the society, it couldn't even challenge Fu family or Jun family's power much less Xu Family. How could she let her daughter be slaughtered like this?
