Chapter 60 The Truth That Is About to Be Revealed
At that moment, Lu Jingxiao, who was answering the phone, was grabbing Zhao Tingguo by the neck: "You shut up!"
He wanted to hear what had actually happened back then.
Why did Lin Wanru bring up the events of five years ago? Why did she mention the car accident?
As soon as Lin Wanru opened her mouth, Zhao Tingguo roared, cursed, and screamed hysterically, making it impossible for him to hear a complete sentence.
This made Lu Jingxiao very unhappy.
Zhao Tingguo stared at Lin Wanru with a look of terror on his face. Lu Jingxiao had no doubt that if he let go of him, Zhao Tingguo would probably pounce on her and kill her.
So, why did Weiwei break up with him back then?
This problem had been troubling him for five years.
Now the mystery can finally be solved, and no one can cause trouble.
But... what did Gu Youran say?
"Who was taken away?"
He suddenly replied.
However, Gu Youran had already hung up the phone.
Lu Jingxiao assumed she was playing a prank, but he subconsciously sped up, guessing that something had happened to Weiwei, which was why Gu Youran had called.
He looked coldly at Lin Wanru: "Tell me what you know."
Lin Wanru seemed to have suddenly gained confidence, and her eyes were filled with arrogance as she looked at Lu Jingxiao: "Master Xiao, let me and my daughter go, and I'll tell you, otherwise... you'll never know the truth about why Luo Zhiwei left you."
Lin Wanru was secretly jealous, and her hatred grew like a madwoman.
Luo Zhiwei, that little bitch, is just as despicable as her short-lived mother, making men devoted to them.
Despicable people, they're all despicable!
It's ironic that Lu Jingxiao, such a high-ranking and powerful man in Beijing's elite circles, loves Luo Zhiwei to the core.
Lin Wanru met Lu Jingxiao's bloodthirsty gaze. She felt no fear, because she was certain that Lu Jingxiao wouldn't dare to do anything to her.
“Master Xiao, only Zhao Tingguo and I know the whole story. Even Luo Zhiwei only knows a little bit, and she won’t tell you.”
Lin Wanru was very certain because if Luo Zhiwei had been willing to tell the truth, she and Lu Jingxiao would not have broken up in the first place.
Lu Jingxiao curled his lips expressionlessly. He shoved Zhao Tingguo aside and walked towards Lin Wanru. Without any mercy, he grabbed her neck and glared at her with bloodshot eyes, saying, "You really think I wouldn't dare to touch you?"
To wield a trivial matter as a powerful command.
What truth does he need, and when can he obtain it only through threats?
Lin Wanru's face flushed crimson as someone gripped her throat. Terrified, she cried out, "Master Xiao... I... let me go..."
On the other side, Zhao Tingguo, who had been 'liberated', couldn't help but gloat when he saw Lu Jingxiao targeting Lin Wanru: "President Lu, you must not let her go. That bitch dared to betray me!"
Lu Jingxiao suddenly thought of something funny. He disdainfully shook off Lin Wanru, and even took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe his face before casually throwing it on the ground.
"Wei Mingfeng, let the three of them go and have a proper get-together."
He wanted to see which of the three could hold out until the end.
The truth he seeks will surface on its own.
He vaguely had a general idea. Perhaps, the near-car accident he had back then wasn't an accident, but rather deliberate, and it was very likely related to... He gave Zhao Tingguo a meaningful look.
It's very likely that it's related to Zhao Tingguo.
Back when Aunt Luo was in charge, the Luo family was a top-tier wealthy family in the industry. Not to mention, some wealthy families had even received favors from Aunt Luo. With Aunt Luo around, the Luo family held supreme power.
At that time, Zhao Tingguo must have been quite successful; who wouldn't give him face?
Perhaps he used the power granted to him by Aunt Luo to deal with Weiwei.
After Wei Mingfeng released the three, Zhao Tingguo was the most miserable among them. Lin Wanru and Zhao Yulan were still relatively strong, and the mother and daughter huddled together for warmth.
Seeing how they treated him, Zhao Tingguo couldn't help but curse, "You bitch, how dare you betray me? I've been supporting you all these years, are you crazy?!"
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more he wanted to kill Lin Wanru.
He thought she was the woman most compatible with him, but unexpectedly, she abandoned him when trouble came.
Lin Wanru wasn't afraid of Zhao Tingguo at all. She pounced on him and started hitting and banging on him: "It's all your fault! It's all your fault! If you had been nicer to Luo Zhiwei, would Lanlan and I have ended up like this? It's all your fault!"
Watching them tug and bite at each other.
Lu Jingxiao watched the scene unfold before him, gave a cold snort, and left.
I wonder how Luo Zhiwei is doing in the hospital.
He's been gone for so long, Weiwei won't be angry, will she?
**
Bai Yuxin struggled to be put into the car, and Gu Youran caught up. However, she was clinging to the passenger door, feeling a little... awkward.
This doesn't seem like someone was taken away; it seems like they were taken away willingly...
Bai Yuxin spotted Gu Youran and immediately rolled down the car window. Gu Youran looked down into the car and met a pair of terrifying eyes from the driver's seat.
Gu Youran felt that all the words she wanted to say had been blocked.
Bai Yuxin, ever the understanding one, said, "Sister Youran, I'm fine. He and I will go back first. If you need anything, just call me. I'm always available."
Chris gave a cold snort from the driver's seat, seemingly dismissing Bai Yuxin's words.
Gu Youran still asked with some unease, "Are you sure it's okay? I feel like... he's a bit fierce."
Bai Yuxin: "......"
Chris: "......"
His gaze became even stranger.
Bai Yuxin glanced back at Chris, then her lips twitched involuntarily. She decided it was best not to provoke him. Then, she smiled sweetly at Gu Youran, her voice gentle and sweet: "Youran-jie, don't worry, he won't hurt me. I'm fine. You should go back and take care of Luo-jie."
Gu Youran was still a little worried: "Are you really alright?"
"It's alright." Bai Yuxin smiled faintly.
"But I just called Lu Jingxiao, and he..."
boom--
Chris, in the driver's seat, seemed to have triggered some kind of mechanism; he stepped on the gas and drove away.
Gu Youran remained where she was: "..."
That man is so rude!
Isn't Bai Yuxin Lu Jingxiao's fiancée?
Why did you willingly leave with that man?
Wow—no way.
Could it be... no, no, Bai Yuxin is also my friend, how can I suspect my friend of cheating?
Or is it that... the man who took Bai Yuxin away is her real fiancé?
Then wouldn't she and Lu Jingxiao be...?
Gu Youran became more and more excited as she thought about it, but just as the answer was about to be revealed, her thoughts came to an abrupt halt.
I can't think about it anymore, or things will go wrong.
Let's go back first, Weiwei is still waiting for me in the ward.
——
When she returned to the ward, she saw Lu Jingxiao sitting in front of the bed, his cold, frosty eyes glancing at her: "I asked you to take care of Weiwei, and this is how you take care of her?"
"It seems Miss Gu isn't entirely sincere about making amends..."
Gu Youran: "......"
