Chapter 173: Lu Xin fell into the trap!
Seeing Lu Xin's expression, Su Mengxue's worried heart instantly eased. She pretended to be indifferent and replied, "So what?"
Her few words broke Lu Xin's defense. She grabbed Su Mengxue's collar tightly with both hands and asked with bloodshot eyes:
"Su Mengxue, what do you mean by that? Why would Cheng Xinkai give you such a valuable thing for no reason? And it's a peace locket, which is a fucking deathbed item."
"Tell me the truth, what is the relationship between you two?"
When Su Mengxue saw the jade yesterday, she only thought it was valuable and didn't know the story behind it, and that was compounded by his enthusiasm yesterday.
She muttered to herself that Cheng Xinkai was willing to use this piece of jade as bait. He was really a cold-hearted person. She had misjudged him before.
Then she turned around, pushed Lu Xin away, and said coldly: "What's our relationship? What's it to you? Lu Xin, do you have the right to ask me?"
Lu Xin's face changed suddenly. She didn't care about anything at this moment. She rushed towards Su Mengxue like crazy and snatched the peace locket around her neck.
But she was still very weak at the moment, and Su Mengxue was not someone who would just sit there and do nothing. After she had just made a few attempts to grab it, she was pushed to the ground by Su Mengxue.
Seeing her struggling and trying to pounce on her, Su Mengxue warned her coldly, "Lü Xin, if you're not afraid of your wound bursting open, just come and grab it."
Seeing Lu Xin's obvious hesitation, she added, "Even if you snatch him away, what's the point? Will Cheng Xinkai like you if you snatch him away? If Cheng Xinkai really liked you, he wouldn't have made you wait so long. You're really deceiving yourself and bringing shame upon yourself."
When Lu Xin heard this, her already pale face instantly lost all color. She stared at Su Mengxue intently and said angrily:
"Su Mengxue, Gu Yunting was imprisoned for saving you. Do you have any heart, woman? You are so shameless that you want to have more than you have in your bowl."
Su Mengxue's eyelashes trembled, and she said calmly: "Gu Yunting owes me and the child so much over the years. This is what he should do for me. Besides, I never said I would forgive him. What does it have to do with him who I am with?"
Lu Xin asked with a sharp look in his eyes: "Su Mengxue, what about Lu Yuanzhou? He has been waiting for you for so many years. Can you really do it?"
Su Mengxue sneered and said sarcastically, "He's just like you, he's waiting willingly. Xinkai and I didn't ask you to wait. You can only blame yourself for being sentimental."
Su Mengxue's sarcastic words once again broke down Lu Xin's defenses. She couldn't accept that the man she had liked for so many years was thinking about another woman, and she couldn't accept that he was with Su Mengxue.
If the two of them were together, it would be a humiliation to her and would also prove that she was inferior to Su Mengxue.
All the blood in her body rushed to her head. At this moment, she had lost her mind. There was only one thought in her mind, which was to strangle Su Mengxue to death.
Although Su Mengxue's jade pendant was snatched away by Lu Xin, she could imagine without wearing the pendant that Lu Xin had murderous intentions towards her, and there must be a thick green light behind her now.
But she did not feel afraid. Instead, she felt that this was a great opportunity to ask the truth. She thought for a moment and said lightly:
"Lü Xin, you stayed with my parents for so many years, eating, drinking and dressing well for me, while I suffered in the countryside. How could I not hate you? Moreover, you monopolized my love for so many years, and you also constantly provoked and angered me. How could I tolerate this?"
"So I swore to snatch the man you like away from me. However, I have to admit that you have a good eye. Xinkai is very outstanding, so I guess I got lucky.
"Lü Xin, I want to tell you something. Even if I bring the child with me, so what? He still chose me over you. Isn't that enough to explain the problem?"
"Su Mengxue, you...you..." Lu Xin was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Seeing that she had not yet reached a state of madness, Su Mengxue decided to continue to poke at her sore spots.
She walked a few steps to Lu Xin, squatted down, hooked her chin with her fingers, and said sarcastically:
"Lü Xin, I know you always want to compete with me, but you're just a girl from the countryside. What can you compare with me?"
Su Mengxue noticed that Lu Xin's fingers had been clenched into fists. Although she was still enduring, she was about to reach the limit of her patience.
"I'm telling you, even if you stay in the Lu family, you won't be able to get rid of your inherent rusticity. To put it nicely, you're an adopted daughter, but to put it bluntly, you're just a fake. How could Cheng Xinkai possibly want you?"
"Su Mengxue, you are really looking for death."
Lu Xin couldn't hold it in any longer. She grabbed Su Mengxue's neck with both hands and said madly, "Su Mengxue, you look down on me and are so proud of yourself, aren't you? I'm going to send you to hell right now. I wonder how you can be with Cheng Xinkai in the future."
Seeing Su Mengxue's face flushed red from being pinched by her, and she was completely breathless, Lu Xin curled her lips into a sinister smile. She gritted her teeth and said, "Su Mengxue, after you die, I really don't know how much pain Lu Zhi and Zhou Huizhen will suffer. Although the sleeping pills I prepared didn't make them sleep for too long, and the carefully prepared fire didn't burn them to death."
"But if you die, they might just follow you. Even if they don't die, living will only make them more miserable. So, killing you alone will be enough to solve the problem for the three of them."
She thought for a moment, then a smug smile spread across her face. "Not only that, I also sent Gu Yunting to jail. God is really kind to me. It just so happened that the cameras at the train station were broken at that time. There's no evidence that I stabbed you. It's absolutely impossible for Gu Yunting to come out in the name of self-defense."
"Also, after you die, Cheng Xinkai's desire to be with you will be shattered. This bastard chose you over me. He's really blind. As punishment, I want him to never have you. Only then will I feel better."
When Lu Xin said this, she increased the strength of her hands. She gathered all her strength in this way, wishing she could strangle Su Mengxue to death immediately.
Su Mengxue really felt that she was completely out of breath, and she had a feeling that Lu Xin would kill her at any time.
At this critical moment, she was not thinking about her own safety, but about Gu Yunting and Zihao. She was not afraid of death, but was only afraid that she would never see them again.
Just when her eyes went dark and she was about to faint.
The next second, there was a bang, and Su Mengxue saw Cheng Xinkai kicking the door open, with two police officers following behind him.
