Chapter 138: The adopted daughter of the Lu family came with ill intentions!
When Su Mengxue saw her like this, she suddenly felt like a blunt knife was constantly pulling at her flesh. It didn't hurt much, but it kept cutting into her heart, making it hard for her to breathe.
After hesitating for a moment, she straightened her back and said, "Aunt Zhou, I..."
"Huizhen, the doctor said that you can't be so excited anymore, otherwise your heart won't be able to bear it. Listen to me, calm down first, and then talk slowly after you calm down." Lu Zhi stepped forward and held Zhou Huizhen in his arms, looking at her with worry in his eyes, interrupting Su Mengxue's words.
Zhou Huizhen knew that Lu Zhi didn't believe her. She looked at Lu Zhi crying and shaking her head. Then her voice suddenly rose and she said with a choked voice, "Lu Zhi, listen to me. I'm absolutely not wrong this time. She is clearly our Linlin. Look how much she looks like me when I was young. Lu Zhi, look quickly!"
She clenched Lu Zhi's arms tightly with both hands, hoping that he could believe what she said.
Zhou Huizhen used to say this whenever she saw a girl of the same age as Linlin. Lu Zhi had heard this too many times. Having experienced too many disappointments over the years, he didn't dare to take Zhou Huizhen's words to heart.
He didn't even glance at Su Mengxue. He frowned and looked at Zhou Huizhen solemnly, saying, "Huizhen, you can't mistake a girl around Linlin's age for Linlin. You'll scare the customers. And the doctor also said that you must not be so overly happy or sad, otherwise your body will completely collapse."
Zhou Huizhen, however, seemed to be going crazy. Her chest rose and fell violently. Her voice trembled but she said firmly, "Lv Zhi, believe me, I definitely didn't make a mistake this time. She is Linlin, it's Linlin. How could I possibly mistake someone who fell from my own body? Lu Zhi, believe me one last time, she is Linlin, it's Linlin..."
She kept whispering, and everyone felt very uncomfortable when they saw her crazy look.
Lu Zhi didn't dare to provoke her anymore. He leaned over and softened his voice and said, "Huizhen, I believe what you say, but you are too emotional now. I am afraid that something might happen to you. How about this, I will help you go upstairs to rest for a while. Don't worry, she won't leave. After you have rested well, we will ask her carefully."
As Lu Zhi said this, he was about to hug Zhou Huizhen and go upstairs.
Zhou Huizhen became even more agitated after hearing what he said. She pushed Lu Zhi away and roared at the top of her lungs, "Lu Zhi, I'm completely conscious now. I think you're the one who's not normal. You just didn't want to find Linlin anymore, so you took Xinxin and me to live in Shanghai."
Hearing her say this, Lu Zhi felt uncomfortable. He sighed deeply, his eyes red as he said, "Huizhen, Linlin is not just your daughter, she's also my child. How could I not want you to find Linlin? Do you think it doesn't hurt that I made this decision?"
Zhou Huizhen turned away angrily and ignored him.
Seeing this, Lu Zhi walked up to her, took her hand, and said softly, "Huizhen, I did this because I don't want you to stay here and be overwhelmed by the sight of this world, crying every day. I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear it. You really misunderstood me. Besides, Linlin was lost when she was so young. Even if she stood in front of us now, we wouldn't recognize her. How can we find her?"
Zhou Huizhen pushed Lu Zhi away, her eyes looking straight at Su Mengxue. Just as she was about to say something, after seeing the jade pendant hanging around her neck, her eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light. She stepped forward and pulled the jade pendant out of Su Mengxue's neck.
But the moment she saw the full jade pendant, the light that had just brightened in her eyes quickly faded away. She murmured with a look of loss, "This isn't the piece I gave to Linlin. Aren't you my daughter? How is this possible?"
After she finished speaking, her eyes went dark and she passed out. Fortunately, Su Mengxue supported her in time and prevented her from falling to the ground.
Lu Zhi quickly stepped forward, hugged Zhou Huizhen in his arms, and shouted to the people around him, "Everyone, please make way for me."
After he said this, people around him quickly made way for him. He quickly laid Zhou Huizhen flat on the ground. Just as he was about to pinch her philtrum, he heard movement at the door. He saw Cheng Xinkai and Xinxin running towards him quickly.
Lu Zhichong waved at the two of them and called out urgently, "Doctor Cheng, Huizhen has fainted again."
Cheng Xinkai ran over quickly and gave Zhou Huizhen a simple examination, then began to give her first aid. Soon Zhou Huizhen opened her eyes weakly.
Zhou Huizhen forced herself to hold herself together, looked around, and quickly fixed her gaze on Su Mengxue. She said with shame and pain, "My dear Linlin, I was wrong back then. I shouldn't have given you to someone else, otherwise you wouldn't have been stolen. Mom is sorry for you. Are you still blaming me? That's why you refuse to recognize us?"
Su Mengxue felt very uncomfortable when she heard her say this, and tears soon welled up in her eyes.
Lu Zhi hugged Zhou Huizhen in his arms and said with tears in his eyes, "Huizhen, the doctor said you can't get too emotional. What happened back then wasn't your fault, so why are you doing this?"
Standing next to Cheng Xinkai, the pretty Lu Xin, with red eyes, asked anxiously, "Doctor Cheng, is my mother okay?"
Cheng Xinkai hurriedly comforted her, "Don't worry, Aunt Zhou just fainted briefly due to emotional excitement. She'll be fine after a rest."
After hearing this, Lu Xin finally felt relieved. She followed Zhou Huizhen's gaze and saw a beautiful girl not far away with red eyes. A strange emotion flashed through her heart.
Cheng Xinkai also looked in Zhou Huizhen's direction. His eyes darkened as he understood the cause of her illness. He frowned and said to Lu Zhi, "Uncle Lu, there are too many people here. Aunt Zhou needs to rest. Hurry and take her upstairs."
"good."
As soon as he finished speaking, they went upstairs together.
Half an hour later, Lu Xin came downstairs. When everyone saw her coming, they immediately stopped talking.
Lu Xin said politely to everyone, "Dear elders, brothers and sisters, thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend our family banquet. What happened just now has made everyone worried, but my mother is fine now, please rest assured."
She bowed to everyone present and added, "However, the doctor said she needs to rest now, so it's not convenient for her to come downstairs to entertain guests. In her current condition, she can't leave anyone alone, and my father is still with her. So I'll apologize to everyone. The meal will be served soon. Please take your seats now. I hope you will enjoy yourselves here. Please bear with us if our hospitality is not good enough."
Lu Xin spoke these words in a graceful and elegant manner, completely like a lady from a noble family. Everyone present was very satisfied with her. After exchanging a few words with her, they sat down to eat.
The only ones who were not sitting at the dining table were Jiang Weilong and Su Mengxue. Su Mengxue was always thinking about Zhou Huizhen, so she had no appetite. Su Mengxue was brought by Jiang Weilong, so naturally he was not interested in eating.
After everyone was seated, Lu Xin slowly walked up to Su Mengxue and Jiang Weilong. After looking them over, she smiled at Jiang Weilong and said, "You must be Brother Jiang, right? Nice to meet you."
Jiang Weilong's expression remained unchanged. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Lu Xin looking at Su Mengxue and added in a cold tone, "I don't know who you are, but I don't want to know you either. For the sake of my mother not being upset anymore, please leave my house immediately!"
