Chapter 856: The Last Video

Jiang Shenyuan pushed the documents and a pen toward Gu Mang. “Don’t worry, since this is Old Madam Lu’s will, you just have to accept it. Uncle Lu and Lu Chengzhou are around to keep the other members of the Lu family in line.”

Gu Mang drummed her fingers against the sofa’s armrests for several seconds before asking, “What did her will state when she was in critical condition a year ago?”

Hearing that, Jiang Shenyuan and the other lawyers exchanged hesitant looks as they contemplated whether or not to tell Gu Mang about it.

“Since it’s already void, there’s no harm in telling us about it,” said Lin Shuang as she crossed her arms in front of her chest.

“Alright,” one of the lawyers said. “In Old Madam Lu’s old will, the Lu Military Group went to Young Master Lu and the rest of her assets were equally divided among her children. Now, however, all of it goes to you, Ms. Gu.”

Gu Mang looked at Jiang Shenyuan and calmly said, “Help me redistribute the assets according to the old will.”

“Wait…” The lawyer stared wide-eyed at her. “Are you refusing the inheritance Old Madam Lu left for you, Ms. Gu?”

“Mhm.” Gu Mang looked down and flipped a page of the book in her hand.

If this were someone else refusing the inheritance, the lawyers would have thought that the recipient was just pretending to be reserved. However, it was clear as daylight that Gu Mang had no interest in the inheritance at all. They could still vividly remember how Old Madam Lu’s children were slandering Gu Mang earlier just to get their hands on the inheritance, yet the girl in front of them refused to accept it. The lawyers thus could not help but stare at Gu Mang incredulously.

To be honest, the assets were indeed tempting and even Lin Shuang could not help but drool over them. It was a pity that Gu Mang, who had always looked up to money, did not care about it.

Jiang Shenyuan smiled at Gu Mang. “Old Madam Lu was right. She knew you wouldn’t accept the inheritance.”

Lin Shuang raised her eyebrows at that. Since she knew that Gu Mang wouldn’t accept it, why bother listing her as the sole inheritor?

Jiang Shenyuan opened his briefcase and took out a flash drive from it. A lawyer from his team took out a laptop from his own briefcase as well. Jiang Shenyuan then pushed a bluetooth headset towards Gu Mang and turned the laptop screen toward her. “Old Madam Lu left this video exclusively for you. Watch it before you make your final decision.”

The video was paused on the image of Old Madam Lu leaning against the bed. Gu Mang looked up and stared at the computer screen.

“If you still don’t want the inheritance after watching this video, I’ll redistribute the assets according to the old will,” said Jiang Shenyuan.

Since this video was left exclusively for Gu Mang, everyone averted their eyes. Lin Shuang, meanwhile, looked down as she wondered if she should reply to He Yidu’s Wechat message.

The silence stretched for ten over seconds before Gu Mang put on the headset and played the video, her face expressionless.

This video had been recorded just days after she recorded her will, but she appeared even more lethargic and listless.

“I knew you wouldn’t accept the inheritance, Gu Mang,” said Old Madam Lu with a smile.

Through the headset, Gu Mang could clearly hear how weak the old lady sounded. She recalled the last time she was at the Lu residence where Lu Zhan, Ye Junci, Lu Chengzhou, and her accompanied Old Madam Lu for a meal. That was the last time she had dined with her.

One by one, images of Old Madam Lu giving her a jade bangle, a bank card, and her morning messages flashed in her mind. Now that she had passed away, all that was left was this video.

Gu Mang’s fingers curled slightly as she watched the video in silence.

“Actually… I don’t want you to watch this video either. Even if my family will raise a ruckus, I hope you can accept what I left behind for you.”

Without even needing to think, Gu Mang could imagine just how chaotic the funeral must’ve been. However, she could not fathom why Old Madam Lu insisted on giving her half the family’s assets despite knowing the trouble it would cause.
