Not only did he laugh, he also nodded in acknowledgement calmly—

"Yes, I'm also quite disgusting, so Che Qingyi and I can't actually be together anymore. We have too many grudges."

"I call them dad and mom because I'm used to it over the years."

Zhao Qingzhu looked at Lu Qing with a complicated expression: "Come to think of it, I still owe you an apology."

She had used Lu Qing to help her give birth to a son, so she was ultimately unfair to Lu Qing.

Her reaction was completely beyond Lu Qing's expectations.

After castrating Che Qingyi, what Lu Qing wanted to see most was Zhao Qingzhu tearing apart all his pride and reserve and going crazy in front of her.

She had no other thoughts, she simply wanted to make trouble for the couple.

As long as they are unhappy, she will be happy even if her revenge is successful.

In Lu Qing's opinion, she felt that with Zhao Qingzhu's love for Che Qingyi, Che Qingyi had now been turned into a eunuch by her.

Wouldn't Zhao Qingzhu hate her so much that he would want to stab her to death with a pair of scissors?

She had waited so long to see Zhao Qingzhu break down, and finally, Zhao Qingzhu came to visit her...

And this is the reaction Zhao Qingzhu gave her?

Apologized to her?

That's it? Lu Qing was not happy at all: "Are you okay?"

Zhao Qingzhu: "It's okay, what's wrong?"

"No." Lu Qing slammed the table, "I castrated Che Qingyi."

"You're not angry at all, and don't want to settle the score with me?"

She remembered what Zhao Qingzhu had just said to her, that Che Qingyi had completely destroyed the old love between them.

But time has passed. The affection we have shown for so many years cannot be fake, right?

Is it really completely gone and there is no emotion at all?

Lu Qing: "Are you kidding me?"

"When Che Qingyi and I were together before, you said you cared about me. How long has it been since you said you didn't care anymore?"

Zhao Qingzhu felt that Lu Qing was baffling: "I'm already this old, if I can't let go of emotional matters, then haven't I lived all these years in vain?"

Lu Qing: “…” You haven’t lived in vain, I have lived in vain!

I don’t know how broken Lu Qing was at the moment, but Zhao Qingzhu himself didn’t seem to be broken at all.

She even said to Lu Qing with a smile: "I have let it go now. I have to thank you for it."

"If you hadn't told me last time how Che Qingyi disliked me behind my back, I wouldn't have been so disappointed."

She would not feel disheartened, nor would she reflect on the relationship between her and Che Qingyi.

"After the last fight at your house, I reflected a lot after returning home."

"You know how much I owe Che Qingyi. It's clearly Che Qingyi who owes me, but why does it seem more and more like I owe him as time goes by?"

"I have to accommodate him and cooperate with him because I love him, so I have to tolerate his betrayal. He said that he would not be able to sleep in peace if he died without his son."

"I was actually intimidated by him at first."

"But then I thought about it carefully. If it weren't for me, he would have died long ago. Who would care whether he could close his eyes or not?"

Just like what her family said, she was spoiled!

Zhao Qingzhu sincerely thanked Luqing: "Thanks to you, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't reflect on these things. Maybe I would still be trapped in the suffering of 'caring'."

This is also the reason why she agreed to let Che's father and mother accompany her to visit Lu Qing in prison today.

She felt sorry for Lu Qing, but also grateful to him.

Although Lu Qing was born stupid, he actually helped her a lot.

Zhao Qingzhu felt a little strange when he saw Lu Qing's expression as if he had eaten shit.

She continued to pour out her heart: "There's something else I think I should thank you for."

"It's about you attacking Che Qingyi."

Lu Qing said word by word: "What did you say?"

Zhao Qingzhu: “……?”

She cleared her throat and said, "I have to thank you for taking action against Che Qingyi. It helped me make a decision that I didn't know how to make."

"After leaving your house last time, I heard Che Qingyi say that he would find another young girl to give birth to a son."

"To be honest, it makes me sick."

"But if I stop him, quarrel with him, or even get angry with him, he will definitely say that I agreed when he first approached you, so why don't I agree now?"

"He felt there was no fundamental difference between finding one and finding several."

"I'm too lazy to argue with him about this."

It's hard to explain this kind of thing, and talking too much will only make yourself disgusted.

Did she want to analyze to Che Qingyi how she felt when Che Qingyi and Lu Qing were together?

Is she trying to say that she doesn't want Che Qingyi to find another woman because she doesn't want to experience that feeling again?

Zhao Qingzhu has been proud all her life, but she can't say the kind of words that would complain and keep a man.

What's more, she didn't want to keep a man who made her feel unrecognizable or even hateful.

"I was actually considering breaking up with Che Qingyi completely at that time, but I couldn't bear to do it."

"It's not that I can't bear to part with Che Qingyi, but I can't bear to part with the Che family's property. I helped them preserve that property."

"Now Che Qingyi insists on bringing back a bastard to inherit the family property. He wants me to give up all my wealth and let a bastard take over. I'm not willing to do that."

She looked at Lu Qing and her brows relaxed: "You can't imagine how entangled I was a while ago."

"I want to completely break up with Che Qingyi, but I can't bear to give up all the efforts I've made over the years and the Che family's wealth."

Her family once told her a word called "stop loss".

She knew what it meant.

It was to persuade her that since she had devoted so many years of her youth and energy to Che Qingyi, she still had not received Che Qingyi's true treatment in return.

Then don't continue to entangle with Che Qingyi.

Stop loss in time is the best option.

Although looking back now, I feel regretful about what I paid in the past.

But it's better than continuing to give to such an unworthy person.

Zhao Qingzhu understood the truth, but she just wouldn't accept it.

Fortunately, Lu Qing took action.
