Lu Anning was startled by the sudden questioning. Du Man grabbed Lu Anning's arm tightly and shook it wildly, and Lu Anning couldn't break free. Zhong Ling and other colleagues saw it and rushed forward to help. It took a while to pull the two people apart.
Du Man glared at Lu An Ning with red eyes: "You are a heartless ungrateful person. You have hurt the Lu family so badly, and now you are hiding my daughter. I tell you, if you don't hand over Yun Xi, I will never let you go."
Lu Anning looked coldly at the almost crazy Duman, and it was difficult for her to be associated with the elegant and noble adoptive mother in her memory.
It seems that Lu's bankruptcy was a big blow to her.
"Lu Yunxi is your daughter. If someone in her twenties goes missing, you should call the police instead of coming to me. How could I hide a living person?"
Lu Anning didn't understand why Du Man thought that Lu Yunxi was missing because she was hiding her, and she didn't want to ask about anything in the Lu family.
Lu Anning was about to leave, but Du Man was not willing to give up easily.
"Lu Anning, don't even think about leaving. You and Yun Xi have always been at odds. You're just not happy that we found your biological daughter, and you're looking for revenge. Not only did you ruin the Lu family, but now you're hiding our only daughter. You just want to see our family destroyed."
"Mrs. Lu!" Lu Anning's face turned pale, and her voice became much louder. "When you speak, you need evidence. I'm not as capable as you say. Please don't think too much of the Lu family. I don't have that much energy to devote to you. If it really doesn't work out, I can help you call the police."
Du Man was unwilling to give up and wanted to rush over to grab Lu An Ning, but at this time, the security guards had already rushed over to stop Du Man. She was carried all the way out by the security guards, still cursing and swearing. The words were a bit unpleasant, and even the onlookers looked at her differently.
Lu Anning didn't care and called his colleagues to leave together.
Thinking it was just a minor incident, Lu Anning stopped thinking about Lu Yunxi's whereabouts. Perhaps she was upset by the last incident and didn't know how to face her biological parents. This had nothing to do with her anymore.
She just didn't expect that she would suddenly receive a call from Lu Yunxi that night. At that time, she had just sent Tang Jingyuan, who was going on a business trip, on the plane and was about to leave.
The sound of wind and waves kept coming from the phone. She didn't hear the other party talking for a long time and was surprised.
Lu Yunxi suddenly said: "Lu Anning, let's meet!"
"Where are you?"
On the phone, Lu Yunxi's voice was surprisingly calm, and one could not even detect the slightest sign of life.
After a while, she finally heard Lu Yunxi's reply: "Pier 3, I'll wait for you. Remember! Come alone. Before you leave, I want to say goodbye to you."
Lu Yunxi's words were ambiguous. Lu Anning hesitated for a moment, then got in the car and drove towards Pier No. 3.
Could it be that she couldn't bear the blow and decided to leave Jiangcheng?
Pier No. 3 was surprisingly quiet late at night, with the whistling sea breeze in her ears. After getting off the car, she called Lu Yunxi immediately. Following her instructions, Lu An Ning saw a white figure standing on the coast in the distance.
She was no longer dressed in bright clothes, and her face was plain without a trace of makeup. Lu An Ning almost didn't recognize her.
"Lu Yunxi, what are you doing?"
She turned around, smiled slightly, and her eyes were unusually calm: "You're here! Look, how do you like my outfit today? This is the clothes I wore before I came to the Lu family, simple and cheap. Now that I think about it, this time back at the Lu family really seems like a dream."
Lu Anning looked at her warily: "What are you going to do?"
Lu Yunxi continued to smile at her, "Do you know how much I envy you? You're not my parents' biological daughter, but you've lived in the Lu family for twenty years in my place. They've raised you to be so outstanding. When I see you, I feel like an ugly duckling. I desperately want to outdo you. I want to possess everything you have to prove that I'm the real rich girl. I want to take back everything I've lost, including my parents' love."
Lu Yunxi gradually recalled the past, and she seemed particularly excited when she mentioned that Lu Anning was kicked out of the Lu family.
"I really thought they loved me, that I was different in their hearts. But when my mother drugged me and sent me to a man's bed in exchange for benefits, I realized that in their eyes, you and I were just objects to be exchanged for benefits. I naively thought I could get the family love I longed for. I'm so ridiculous!"
Lu An Ning vaguely sensed a danger signal and frowned. Seeing her retreating little by little and possibly falling into the sea at any time, his heart rose to his throat.
Lu Yunxi was very annoying, but she never wanted her to die.
"Lu Yunxi, life is more than just family. You are still young and have a chance to start over. Come over first and I will chat with you slowly."
She moved closer little by little, trying to pull the person back, but was seen through by Lu Yunxi, who scolded her and retreated back to her original position.
"Don't lie to me! My life is such a mess, I can't catch up with yours even if I start over. Lu Anning, I asked you to come here just to see you one last time. In the bag next to you is a letter I left for my parents. Thank you for coming to see me. If there is an afterlife, I don't want to meet you again, and I don't want to be their daughter anymore."
Lu Yunxi smiled, her eyes full of despair. Just as Lu An Ning rushed towards her, she closed her eyes and jumped.
There was only a loud bang, and the white figure was swallowed up completely by the dark sea behind him. Lu Anning's hand was still suspended in mid-air, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Under his feet, the waves were surging, but there was no trace of the human figure.
Lu Yunxi, she actually jumped into the sea and committed suicide!
Everything happened so suddenly that before Lu An Ning could recover from his shock, two figures came rushing over from a distance. He heard the roars of Du Man and Lu Zhenghao, but the only response was the sound of waves.
