"Master, could you please let us go? My wife and I promise we won't run away... My wife has a fever, please let her go too."

Seeing Lin Xianghua's pained expression and flushed face, Lu Yuanshan couldn't help but plead.

After experiencing such a blow, they were all mentally devastated.

He had become numb, but Lin Xianghua couldn't take it anymore.

After being beaten, tied up, and provoked, he now has a fever.

Liu Yuan came over to check and confirmed that Lin Xianghua really did have a fever, so he let her go.

"Let them both go; they can't run away now."

Lin the Blind spoke coldly.

Lu Yuanshan and Lin Xianghua won't run away.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yujiao immediately spoke up, "Could you let go of me too?"

She was also feeling very uncomfortable.

"Gag her."

Lin the Blind Man said coldly again.

Liu Yuan swiftly went into the kitchen, grabbed a dishcloth, and stuffed it into Zhao Yujiao's mouth.

Zhao Yujiao glared angrily, but now all she could do was whimper.

Lu Yuanshan helped Lin Xianghua to make her more comfortable during the exam, and the couple looked at each other with sorrowful expressions.

"Lu Chen is a good boy. We are the ones who have done wrong and let him down."

Lu Yuanshan looked at Zhao Zhiyuan and Lu Xuelian and spoke.

Speaking of Lu Chen, Lin Xianghua shed tears.

“Yuanzhen said she would come in an hour, but she won’t be here on time. She will come at least two hours later. I know we have committed grave sins, and we will not have the chance to see you again after today. So let’s take this opportunity to tell you about everything that happened in the past.”

"Because we knew he wasn't our biological son, we were afraid he would get too good and fly too high, so we treated him coldly and harshly from a young age..."

Lu Yuanshan spoke slowly.

Lu Chen couldn't remember many of his memories because they were too painful, and his brain chose to forget them.

Things I couldn't understand or that seemed inconsistent before, I now have the answers to.

Lu Chen is outstanding; he has been an excellent student since childhood.

Even though they wanted him to go astray, he didn't go astray.

Seeing that he stood straighter than a pine tree, Lin Xianghua and Lu Yuanshan were extremely worried and tried every means to smear him.

Lu Chen has had a very difficult twenty-eight years.

Lu Xuelian and Zhao Zhiyuan hugged Lu Chen tightly.

Lu Xuelian gently stroked Lu Chen's hair: "Little Chen, from now on, with your parents around, no one can wrong you or bully you."

Lu Chen felt a pang of sadness. He was twenty-eight years old, long past the age where he needed his parents' love and care.

But at this moment, he felt as if he had returned to his childhood, gently leaning against Zhao Zhiyuan and Lu Xuelian, drawing warmth and love from them.

He nodded: "Yes."

He is a child with parents now.

Seeing this, Liu Xiaohua silently wiped away her tears.

Lin Xianghua and Lu Yuanshan both shed tears of regret as they watched this scene.

They knew Lu Chen wasn't their biological son, so they never cared about him. What kind of treatment would their own daughter receive after being switched out by Yuan Zhen?

Just thinking about it makes my heart ache.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

"Let's go open the door."

Lu Yuanshan and Lin Xianghua said in unison.

Lin the Blind waved his hand and nodded in agreement: "Go ahead, just don't do anything you shouldn't, and bring the person to the hall."

Lu Yuanshan and Lin Xianghua immediately helped each other and walked towards the door.

Su Tiantian asked Lin the Blind in a low voice, "Uncle Lin, why did you let them go?"

Lin the Blind replied in a low voice, "That Yuan Zhen is quite capable and her skills are not to be underestimated. She is at least an elder of a branch hall. It is convenient for them to lure her in. If we go, Yuan Zhen will realize something and run away immediately. We can make our move after they lure her in. This is called closing the door to beat the dog."

Yuan Zhen's skills are superior to his. He is not as good as Yuan Zhen and is blind, so he might not be able to beat Yuan Zhen.

It would be too embarrassing if we couldn't win.

But it's okay, he has plenty of solutions.

He grabbed Su Tiantian and led her toward the door, instructing her, "Later, you stay here to distract Yuan Zhen, while I, the old man, will ambush her from the shadows. We'll join forces to subdue her. I know you're strong, but don't be arrogant. This old woman is at least a Grand Martial Master; we can't fight her head-on."

Lin the Blind then said to Zhao Zhiyuan and the others, "You guys find a place to hide first, so you don't accidentally hurt anyone later. Just lie on the ground and pretend to be dead."

As soon as Lin the Blind made the arrangements, everyone in the room quickly set off.

Liu Yuan dragged Zhao Yujiao directly into the storage room.

In just two minutes, everyone was in their seats.

The villa was quiet, and in the bright hall, Lu Chen lay there motionless.

After Lu Yuanshan and Lin Xianghua opened the door, they lowered their heads, looking timid and afraid.

Yuan Zhen glanced at it indifferently and walked inside.

Lin Xianghua silently closed the door before the couple followed.

“With him dead, it will be easier to talk to the Zhao family, and your daughter’s crime can be resolved. She’s been having some bad luck, so if you want to improve her luck, you can ask for some luck-enhancing talismans to wear.”

Yuan Zhen spoke coldly, as if giving a command.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

Lu Yuanshan lowered his head and nodded obsequiously in agreement.

Yuanzhen felt that he had agreed to the 300,000 too readily, so he was still not satisfied and tried to find ways to get them to spend more money.

Let her get the money when she's alive.

Yuan Zhen glanced at Lu Yuanshan and Lin Xianghua and said, "Your wife seems to be unwell. Does she need a peace talisman? I just made a top-grade peace talisman. It costs 50,000 yuan and there's only one available. It can keep your wife healthy for three years."

"want."

Lu Yuanshan nodded in agreement. He was worried that Yuan Zhen was too greedy and might bring up some other trouble. After Lu Yuanshan finished speaking, he added, "Let's deal with the current matter first, and we can talk about it later."

Yuan Zhen nodded and strode inside, pondering what else he could prepare for Lu Yuanshan and his wife.

They've dealt with Lu Chen, so everything the Zhao family owns from now on will be theirs. The Zhao family has a deep foundation; they should really dig into this treasure trove.

Yuan Zhen entered the hall and saw Lu Chen lying on the ground. Yuan Zhen frowned and said, "Where did you find all this random stuff to stick on him? Aren't you afraid of making a mistake?"

The Lu couple even hired other masters, and it's unclear how much they paid them.

Yuan Zhen was extremely unhappy; all the money from the Lu family should have been earned by her!

Lu Yuanshan and Lin Xianghua remained silent; their mission was complete.

Just as Yuan Zhen was about to reach Lu Chen's side, she was startled by a voice.

Hello, grandma.

Su Tiantian smiled and waved to Yuan Zhen from beside a pillar in the hall.

Yuan Zhen frowned: "Whose child is this?"

"Grandma, I am a child from the Su family."

Su Tiantian answered obediently.

Yuan Zhen stared at Su Tiantian, narrowing his eyes: "You little brat, you look..." truly wealthy.

Su Tiantian smiled and waved: "Grandma, come closer, I have something to tell you."

Yuan Zhen saw Su Tiantian approach with a smile, and she was about to get closer to Su Tiantian when she saw Su Tiantian raise her hand and wave it at her. Suddenly, Yuan Zhen felt like something had gotten into her eye.
