Chapter 144: Hopes Shattered
Lu Ergu and Lin Xuxu were frightened and their faces changed drastically. They took several steps back involuntarily.
"Qing... Qingyun... We are here to visit you. Are you okay?" Lu Ergu tried to calm herself down. She stared at Lu Qingyun and carefully examined his face. She found that his complexion did not look abnormal, and did not look like Chinese medicine at all.
This made her suspicious. She had clearly put medicine in his teacup, so why didn't it work? Could it be that the medicine had not taken effect yet?
Lu Qingyun raised his lips slightly, revealing a cold smile, and said sarcastically: "Second Aunt, what do you want me to do? Or, have you done something shameful and dirty behind my back?"
Facing Lu Qingyun's questioning, Second Aunt Lu's face suddenly became a little unnatural, and a trace of embarrassment and confusion flashed in her eyes, but she quickly covered it up.
She tried to squeeze out a smile, "I... I don't quite understand what you are talking about."
Lu Qingyun showed a mocking sneer, and his eyes swept coldly over Lin Xuxu who was standing beside him.
"Do you know what crime it means to destroy a military marriage?" His voice was cold and majestic, which made people feel afraid.
Facing Lu Qingyun's eyes, Lin Xuxu's body trembled involuntarily, her eyes filled with fear. Now she regretted listening to Aunt Lu and Aunt Lu. She did have a good impression of Lu Qingyun, but she never thought about going to jail for it.
"I have taken the cup for testing, and the results will be out soon." Lu Qingyun said expressionlessly.
"Qingyun, Aunt Lu did this for your own good. That country girl is not worthy of you in any way. Look at Xuxu, she not only has a good family background, but she also studied abroad and is beautiful. She is many times better than that country girl." Aunt Lu was completely panicked. If the test really showed anything, she would be finished.
At this time, a cold and dignified voice of anger came from not far away, "Lu Hongmei, are you tired of living and want to die? Do you know what stupid things you are doing?"
Aunt Lu was frightened by the sudden roar and her body trembled involuntarily.
Old Master Lu was walking towards this side slowly with a cane, staggering but firm and powerful steps. With every step, the chilling aura emanating from his body became stronger.
Ling Yao followed behind Old Master Lu. Originally, she didn't plan to come here, as she had already discussed countermeasures with Lu Qingyun. He was in full charge of this matter.
The old man knew that Second Aunt Lu had brought Lin Xuxu to the Lu family, so he dragged her over.
"Dad..." Second Aunt Lu was already pale with fear, her lips trembling but she couldn't say a complete sentence.
Seeing this, the old man Lu was even more furious, raised his cane, and hit Second Aunt Lu fiercely, "You have lived for most of your life without any improvement, and you have made the same mistake again and again, without any remorse at all. You should go back inside and reflect on yourself this time." He was completely disappointed with his two daughters.
"Dad! I was wrong. I won't do it again. Please forgive me this time. Qingyun, Second Aunt is out of her mind. Please forgive me. Second Aunt will never interfere in your affairs again." Second Aunt Lu finally realized the severity of the consequences. She knelt on the ground in fear and begged Grandpa Lu and Lu Qingyun. She didn't want to go to jail. If she went to jail, her second half of life would be ruined. "
Grandpa Lu, Big Brother Lu, it's none of my business. I was also deceived by my aunt." Lin Xuxu was trembling with fear. She hated Lu Dagu and Lu Ergu in her heart. If they hadn't been tempting her and told her that as long as she did what they said, she would be guaranteed to become Lu Qingyun's wife, she wouldn't have been so obsessed and followed Lu Ergu to Lu's house, intending to have sex with Lu Qingyun.
Now, the matter has not been settled, and she has hurt herself. Even if Lu Qingyun lets her go this time, if this matter gets out, the children of those big families will not dare to marry her again.
If her parents knew that she had lost her usefulness, her consequences could be imagined.
At this time, a guard ran over in a hurry.
He stopped in front of Lu Qingyun, saluted respectfully, and handed a document in his hand to Lu Qingyun.
Lu Qingyun took the document expressionlessly, staring at Lu Ergu with cold and sharp eyes, "The test results are out."
Lu Ergu's face turned pale as paper in an instant, and her body trembled involuntarily. She looked at Lu Qingyun, her eyes full of fear and pleading, "Qing... Qingyun... Ergu was wrong, Ergu will never dare to do it again, please let Ergu go, please..." Tears slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the ground.
Lu Qingyun ignored Lu Ergu and turned to look at Old Master Lu. Although he didn't want to let them go, he still had to take care of his grandfather.
Old Master Lu sighed helplessly, turned around and left, "You handle it yourself." He had given them a chance before, but they didn't cherish it.
"Dad! Don't leave, help me..." Seeing Old Master Lu getting farther and farther away, Second Aunt Lu was anxious. Now her father was her only hope. If her father didn't help her, she would be completely finished. Old Master
Lu seemed to have heard nothing. He walked forward step by step with a slightly staggering pace. If he continued to protect his daughters, it would be tantamount to encouraging them to hurt their grandson and granddaughter-in-law.
"Dad..." Seeing the last glimmer of hope shattered, Second Aunt Lu suddenly lost all hope and collapsed to the ground as if all her strength had been drained.
"Take her away!" Lu Qingyun's voice was extremely cold, and with unquestionable majesty, he gave orders to the guards standing by. This time, he would never be soft-hearted.
"Brother Lu, please let me go. They deceived me. I never thought of ruining your marriage... I am innocent..." Lin Xuxu cried with tears streaming down her face.
Lu Qingyun waved his hand impatiently.
The guards stepped forward and dragged Lin Xuxu away, and her crying gradually faded away.
With Lu Ergu and Lin Xuxu being taken away, only Lu Qingyun and Ling Yao were left.
Lu Qingyun walked forward, stretched out his hand and hugged Ling Yao into his arms, "Yaoyao, I will never let this happen again." Even if it happens, he will act decisively and strangle it to death in the cradle, and will never give anyone the opportunity to destroy their marriage.
Ling Yao leaned on Lu Qingyun's broad chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, feeling extremely relieved, she smiled and nodded. She believed in Lu Qingyun, and believed that they could manage this marriage well.
