47 047 When your grandmother
◎Gift for meeting.◎
The salvage and rescue operation lasted for a week. Jiang Xiu and Old Madam Lu both left. The situation of the Lu family was very critical. Many projects were led by Lu Sinian. Although things were done by other people, they were obviously in a panic without the helmsman. In addition, there was constant suppression from the outside, which meant they were facing internal and external troubles.
Watching the two of them leave, Ren Lu breathed a sigh of relief.
God knows how uncomfortable she has been these days, acting out the pain of losing her husband. She can't eat much, and can't sleep well. She has to cry secretly from time to time, and her eyes are red. Even though she is not that sad, her body and mind are in a tense state after all this.
As soon as the two of them took off on the plane, she pretended to faint, lay on the bed in the holiday villa and fell into a deep sleep. She ate several big meals before she felt better.
She stayed on the island for another half a month. The private rescue team hired by the Lu family could no longer salvage anything. In fact, no one knew it was a futile effort, but the Lu family was still unwilling to give up.
That day, Jiang Xiu came back again. When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law met, they found that they had both lost a lot of weight, and they immediately hugged each other.
"Good girl, you have suffered." Jiang Xiu touched her forehead hair.
"Mom, I'm not suffering, it's you and Dad who are suffering. How is home lately?" She shook her head and quickly showed concern.
"The situation has been stabilized for the time being. We will take care of everything. You don't have to worry."
Ren Lu frowned, obviously a little unconvinced. After a moment's silence, she carefully said, "Mom, I don't think the comments online are good. If you have any difficulties, don't hide them from me. I also know about some of the projects—"
Jiang Xiu patted the back of her hand and soothed her softly, "We are all family, how could Mom hide this from you? Those news on the Internet are all smokescreens deliberately released. The Lu family did lose some of their assets, and it seems that they were squeezed out and hurt, but in fact, those projects are dead branches and dead leaves. Your father deliberately threw away these burdens and streamlined the assets, just like growing flowers, you have to prune the branches and leaves to better stabilize the foundation."
When Ren Lu heard these words, the heavy stone in her heart suddenly fell back.
She didn't care whether the Lu family could hold on, she just wanted to know how much money she could get.
Since Lu Sinian's death was a foregone conclusion, she had to convert the money into money and take it away as soon as possible before the Lu family fell, otherwise the Lu family would be torn apart and her inheritance would be likely to shrink.
"That's good, Mom. You just got off the plane, so you should have a good rest first." Ren Lu nodded immediately and wanted to send her back to the room.
"I came here this time to discuss a few things with you." Jiang Xiu held her hand and his expression became serious.
"You say."
"After so many days of salvaging, there is still no news. The situation has stabilized temporarily, and it is time to announce Si Nian's death to the public. We can't let him be talked about all the time and have no peace." Jiang Xiu stared into her eyes, trying to keep her tone steady, but the occasional trembling voice still exposed her sadness.
As soon as she finished her words, Ren Lu interrupted her emotionally and protested directly.
"No, Mom, I want to see him alive or dead. I can't even find a piece of Si Nian's clothes. I won't admit that he is gone. You carried him for ten months and gave birth to him. You must be able to feel that he is not dead. Maybe he is alive and well in some corner of this world-"
She was crying as she spoke and her body was shaking uncontrollably. It was obvious that she was extremely sad.
"Good child, don't cry--" Jiang Xiu wanted to comfort her, but after she said it, she couldn't hold it in any longer, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hugged each other and cried again.
Ren Lu sighed in her heart, oh, there is still room for tears in this play.
"I know all this, but emotions are emotions and the facts are here. We who are alive have to go on with our lives—" Jiang Xiu managed to calm down and wiped her tears.
The more Ren Lu wiped away her tears, the more she cried. She couldn't help crying again, "But he's the only one in my life. If he's gone, what's the point of living? Mom, you can understand me, right?"
"Child, if Si Nian knew about this, he wouldn't want you to suffer so much..."
After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law cried and complained for several times, Ren Lu finally acted as if she was persuaded.
"It's okay to announce the death, but the rescue and salvage operations must continue. I always feel that he is still there."
"Okay, okay. It's all up to you." Jiang Xiu nodded.
Ren Lu had an expression of complete grief at this moment, as if she was about to faint at any moment, but in fact she was relaxed and relieved in her heart.
In fact, she was more anxious than anyone else because the news of Lu Sinian's death was not made public.
If he doesn't die, how can the inheritance be inherited?
Naturally, she has to make the Lu family acknowledge that he is dead so that she can inherit the estate legally and reasonably. Otherwise, she will have to continue to deal with it.
After the news of her death came through, Jiang Xiu fell silent again, and even kept observing her expression, obviously not being able to speak.
Ren Lu took the initiative to ask: "Mom, is there anything else? Just tell me. Si Nian's death has been announced. There should be nothing more unbearable for me than this."
"Oh——" Jiang Xiu sighed.
"Do you remember the plum blossom incident?"
Ren Lu nodded. She had been thinking about this matter these days.
She deliberately exposed it at that time just to use it as a handle to make the Lu family obey her.
In accordance with the plot, Lu Hui directly threw the dirty water on Lu Sinian's head. In fact, Lu Sinian was carrying this stigma until his death.
And now that Jiang Xiu brought up the old matter again, could it be that he has other plans?
"At that time, grandma said that I should give birth to the child as soon as possible and then have Meihua abort it. Now that Si Nian is gone, I can't give birth to the child. This child must be saved. I agreed to let her give birth, but the premise is that Si Nian and I have a home. I will never give him any of it. That is the only thought he left me..."
Ren Lu first showed an expression of mockery and humiliation, and then burst into tears out of grievance.
It's up to her to give birth to the child or not. She doesn't have to take care of it anyway. It's best if she gives birth to the child. It will also ruin Lu Sinian's reputation. She won't have to be judged in the future and will get everyone's sympathy, which will make it easier for her to completely leave the Lu family and find a second spring.
But don't even think about taking a penny of her inheritance.
"Who said you have to agree, kid? Mom and Brother Hui both want that child, but I don't agree. They care about whether there is an heir, and I only care about what Si Nian thinks. You are the wife he carefully selected, and he definitely doesn't want you to suffer any grievances..."
Jiang Xiu spoke with such sincerity that Ren Lu felt her scalp tingling.
She looked up at the mother-in-law. Jiang Xiu's face was full of sincerity, without any hint of temptation.
"Mom, there's really no need. After all, he is Si Nian's flesh and blood left in the world. It doesn't matter if I suffer a little grievance. Besides, the Lu family also needs a new heir--" she retorted subconsciously.
But just as he was about to say this, he was interrupted.
"The Lu family has more than one child, and Si Yue is still alive and well. She is young and a good student, proving that she has enough brains. Could it be that she is not as good as an unborn embryo?"
"But Siyue only wants to fall in love and is emotional. She has no clear mind at all. It's hard to imagine that she can take over the entire Lu family's business." Ren Lu couldn't help but retort.
Please, don't count on being in love, okay?
Lu Siyue is positioned as the heroine of a youth campus novel. Apart from her love affair with the whole world, she has no other thoughts and cannot write a commercial novel at all.
"Then who can guarantee that the one in Meihua's belly is not a love-brained kid? If Siyue really likes Huangmao, she can let Huangmao marry into her family. If neither of them can make it, she can just have a child and raise it well."
Ren Lu was stunned by her question. Yes, Meihua hasn't given birth yet, who knows what the child will be like? What if the child is a love-brained one, then he will be worse than Lu Siyue.
However, this is not something she should worry about.
"Mom, Meihua is pregnant with a boy, right? Grandma and Dad want to keep the baby, so I don't have the final say. Don't worry, after Si Nian's funeral, I will leave. I won't stay there, and I won't make myself unhappy."
Ren Lu smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I will live a good life and will not give up."
Of course she had to stay away, otherwise her every move would be monitored and she would be driven crazy sooner or later.
"Leave this matter to me. Si Nian doesn't even know about the existence of this child, so there is no need for him to be born." Jiang Xiu's tone was quite serious. It was obvious that she had her own plans and was very determined.
Ren Lu smiled bitterly and did not refute, saying that Lu Siyue was a love-brained person. In fact, Jiang Xiu was also the same. As the female protagonist of the male frequency pendant, she could not change Lu Hui's decision.
But Lu Hui is really despicable. Before Lu Sinian was still alive, Lu Hui thought that the child in Meihua's belly was a hidden danger, so he threw dirty water on Lu Sinian and wanted to get rid of the child quietly.
But now that Lu Sinian is dead, Lu Hui has changed his mind and wants to make the best of a bad situation by keeping the child as the heir and raising the illegitimate son as his grandson.
After the child was born, if the Lu family wanted to clear his name, they would have to release the news. Lu Sinian was already dead, with no evidence at all, and he would not defend himself at all.
Not only did he have to bear the stigma for Lu Hui, but he also had to hand over the property he had built to his illegitimate brother. He simply took advantage of the situation and took everything away.
"Now that I've explained everything, I'll go back first. Don't worry, I'll take care of everything for you." Jiang Xiu took a few sips of tea and patted her hand to comfort her.
Ren Lu was slightly startled, and subconsciously asked: "Mom, are you leaving now?"
"Yeah, the return flight has already been booked. I just wanted to come and see you."
"Then I'll go back with you." Ren Lu pretended to pack her luggage.
Jiang Xiu held her down and said, "No, the house is still a mess. Wait until I have dealt with everything, then you can go back and avoid being upset."
Ren Lu was really moved this time. Jiang Xiu was born with maternal radiance, gentle, firm and great.
Her character is also in line with the male-oriented heroine, a good wife and a good mother. Even though this word has been stigmatized in recent years, it was originally very beautiful.
"Mom, it's not worth it for you to travel all this way just to say a few words. You should take more rest during this time. We can just call each other..." Ren Lu choked up and couldn't continue.
At this moment, she really wanted to cry, and Jiang Xiu was like a clear spring, wrapping her gently and restrainedly.
Even if she is a big liar, she will stop for the warmth given by Jiang Xiu.
"Silly child, I had to come and see if you were doing well. What do you mean by just a few words? We mother and I cried several times just now. Eat well, sleep well, and gain weight. You are too thin now, and you will fall down if the wind blows." She wiped her tears and stroked her back gently.
It was just a few simple words, but they made Ren Lu feel uncomfortable again.
She felt guilty for Jiang Xiu's sincerity.
"Mom, actually I am your daughter-in-law, and Si Nian is your son. Maybe he wants an heir of his own." Ren Lu couldn't hold back her emotions and said something tentatively.
"What son and daughter-in-law? Don't you hate this theory the most? We are a family now. I don't know whether he wants an heir or not, but if I were you, I wouldn't want Brother Hui to leave me an illegitimate child." Jiang Xiu patted her shoulder, a little reproachful.
Ren Lu moved her lips, wanting to say something, but then held it back.
She was touched again.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
She watched Jiang Xiu get on the plane and didn't leave the security check until the plane took off.
After returning to her residence, she made a phone call.
"You can stop investigating what I asked you to do before. I will transfer the balance on time."
The person on the other end paused for a moment before answering, "Ma'am, I'm not taking advantage of you. The photos and test reports have been sent to your email. Don't worry, they are encrypted messages, so you don't have to worry about being tracked by hackers."
This person's voice was obviously in the process of voice change, and it sounded very strange, as if it came from a robot.
Ren Lu hung up the phone, opened her email, clicked on the latest email, and saw several photos and a test report.
The photos were all of the confrontation between the Lu family and Meihua that day, and the test report was a DNA test between the baby in Meihua's belly and Lu Sinian.
In fact, on the fourth day after Lu Sinian's death, she recovered and began to think about this matter.
She and Lu Sinian appeared on a couple variety show, and countless people saw their love for each other, and even public opinion dubbed them a model couple of wealthy families.
Now that Lu Sinian is dead, public opinion will only follow her closely.
If she remained a widow for the rest of her life, public opinion would praise their love, but once she found a new love, she would probably face countless doubts.
Even if there are people who speak up for her, they will only be a minority and will soon be drowned out by the majority of comments.
With the promotion of marketing accounts, they repeatedly went over the details and edited the sweet moments of Lu Lu's success, saying how much Lu Sinian loved her, and how soon she found a new love after his death.
She doesn't even need to find a new love. As long as she gets close to a young handsome guy and is caught and used by someone with ulterior motives, she can be sprayed into a sieve.
She couldn't get through a day like this where she was constantly being scrutinized and judged under a magnifying glass.
Whether she finds a man in the future or not, she doesn't want to be judged.
So she thought of a way. She wanted to get the surveillance footage that exposed Meihua at Lu's house that day, as well as the DNA test report that Lu Hui asked the hospital to do. As long as these things were made public, the so-called "model couple" filter of her and Lu Sinian would naturally be broken, and the original trial would also be self-defeating.
Even if she really finds a new love in the future, I'm afraid the onlookers will applaud her and say it is Lu Sinian's retribution.
Come to think of it, she is quite cruel, but it is really sweet to make money from misfortune.
However, Jiang Xiu's arrival today disrupted her plan. This kind of pure care and protection was so touching that she felt embarrassed to take ruthless action.
"Oh, Lu Sinian, you are such a loser. I didn't feel soft-hearted even when you died, even though we slept in the same bed together for so long. It's because you have a good mother that I can't bear to let you go. Otherwise, your reputation will be even worse. I'll let you go." After she said this, she deleted the email directly.
***
In the middle of the night, Lu Sinian sat on a low-quality office chair with his back straight, but he still felt something was wrong.
Whenever he moved a little, the chair under his butt would make a creaking sound. This was really a new experience for him.
The time on the phone screen turned to 00:00 in the morning, and he immediately dialed a number skillfully.
"Hello, who is this?" Liu Cheng's voice came.
"Ghost." He said simply.
Liu Cheng couldn't help but shiver. He cursed in his heart, saying that he was so unlucky.
This is not a ghost, it is clearly much scarier than a ghost.
He committed murder and arson in his previous life, and in this life he works like a slave for Lu Sinian.
This boss is crazy. He first faked his death, and then called to give orders in the early morning. His voice was so low and cold, like a definitely damp male ghost.
"Mr. Lu, I have already sent the materials you asked me to send to Mr. Huo and his wife. But his wife was a little abnormal. She called me and said she didn't need them anymore. But I asked the hacker to send them to me."
"Did she discover something unusual?" Lu Sinian frowned.
"Absolutely not. It was my wife who took the initiative to contact the hackers to check the information. It was not me who took the initiative to approach them." Liu Cheng guaranteed.
Liu Cheng is Lu Sinian's most capable subordinate. Naturally, he has great abilities. His connections and resources are top-notch, and he is very particular about methods and ways of doing things. He can make people involuntarily fall into the trap he has dug and will never mess it up.
"Okay, I believe you. Don't worry about her. She has got the information anyway. It's up to her whether she wants to leak it to the media or not." Lu Sinian nodded.
"What was Lu Hui doing on the day I died?" he asked again.
When Liu Cheng heard him speak so frankly, it seemed as if a ghost really was talking to him on the phone. He couldn't help but shrink his neck and felt a chill on his back.
This black-hearted capitalist really wants to be a ghost. He keeps talking about death every day, just like a madman.
"He was secretly meeting a celebrity in a villa in the suburbs. The private detective you asked me to arrange took all the photos, and they are all organized. Are you going to find a way to send them to reporter He?"
"No need, just organize it, He Wen will get it automatically."
"Well, what's going on—" Liu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously opened his mouth to ask, but before he could finish his words, the phone was hung up, leaving only a busy tone.
"Fuck, you let me finish my words before hanging up, will you let me die? You have no manners at all. Do you think she is a deity, can she pick up things from the air? How can she get it from such a long distance? They don't even know each other, okay? You really think you are Zhuge Liang, who has planned everything. What are you pretending for? You are still so arrogant even though you are dead!"
Without the boss's suppression, Liu Cheng started cursing on the spot. This damn boss was really infuriating.
Lu Sinian naturally had no idea about Secretary Liu's breach of defense. Even if he heard it, he would not take it to heart at all.
It's just the barking of an incompetent dog. It's a waste of time to listen to any more of it.
As for such a big thing as faking his death, the reason why he let Liu Cheng get involved was because he had seen Liu Cheng’s self-introduction before.
[Liu Cheng, 28 years old, a small-time character growth model. In the early stage, he completed everything his boss told him to do, and in the later stage, he became a super hero who climbed to the top by stepping on his boss's corpse.]
When Lu Sinian saw this self-introduction, he knew that the boss in the text was himself.
Liu Cheng still stepped on his corpse to get to the top, but it didn't matter. He was used to it. There were countless people waiting for his death, so he didn't care if there was one more.
What's more, this one is particularly useful, he is simply a jack of all trades secretary, and he also has a buff, which allows him to complete all the tasks assigned by him. It couldn't be better.
***
Ren Lu slept until she woke up naturally. When she looked at the time, it was already past ten o'clock. She washed up and saw the cosmetics on the table. After hesitating for a moment, she picked them up and put on a haggard makeup.
Yes, she wears makeup now not to make herself radiant, but to look ghostly and pitiful.
After all, no one is watching her now, so she doesn't need to shed tears every day, nor does she need to be overly sad and not eat or sleep well. Instead, she eats well and sleeps well into the night. Her mental state is too good. If she doesn't wear makeup, others may think that she has just encountered some happy event.
Although Jiang Xiu had left the island and Ren Lu was not planning to go out to see anyone today, she still dressed herself up just in case to avoid being exposed.
Sometimes the enemy seizes the opportunity when we are lax.
Of course, she was very glad about this decision very soon. Just after she finished her meal downstairs, her aunt came in to pass on a message.
"Madam, Miss Feng is here."
"Please let her in." Ren Lu hid the snacks and then let someone in.
"Sister Lulu, you've lost weight." After Feng Yuwei came in, she looked at her carefully, her eyes immediately turned red, and she felt very distressed.
"Fortunately, my appetite has returned a little recently. Do you want to come and play?"
"No, I came to see you. The weather outside is very nice today, do you want to go out for a walk?" Feng Yuwei shook her head and took the initiative to suggest.
"No, I'm not interested and it will only spoil your fun. You go and have fun by yourself. I'll find a guide for you." Ren Lu waved her hand.
In fact, she also wanted to go out and play, but in this special period, she couldn't act very happy when she went out. Instead, she had to look sad to avoid being photographed inappropriately and getting into trouble.
"Actually, Aunt Jiang asked me to come. She said you were in a bad mood, so she asked me to take you out for a walk to relieve your boredom."
When Ren Lu heard that it was Jiang Xiu's concern for her, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Hey, why isn’t this mother her biological mother? If she were her biological mother, she would have to be a obedient mama’s girl and stay away from that scumbag old man Lu Hui.
"Then I'll listen to you. Let's go." She acted as if compromising.
"Okay, I've found several fun places. Let's go together." Feng Yuwei nodded happily and tried hard to liven up the atmosphere.
Although she has a simple personality, she is not unable to read people's expressions. On the contrary, she is very considerate.
After all, Lu Sinian crashed into the sea and disappeared. Feng Yuwei was afraid that she would have psychological trauma, so she deliberately avoided the beach and chose indoor activities.
The two first went to a massage parlor for a spa, and then went to a local specialty seafood restaurant.
After eating and drinking, Feng Yuwei also suggested going to watch the stars.
"This store has a special event. There are various telescopes on the top floor, and you can see the constellations. The weather is nice tonight, and the stars are shining. Shall we go take a look?"
"Okay." Ren Lu nodded happily.
Emma, this life of eating, drinking and getting massages is really great.
She could imagine how pleasant it would be to spend her husband's inheritance in the future.
After arriving there, I saw that the top floor was not capped. Instead, it was filled with various sofas, booths, and hanging chairs. Near the outer railings, there were astronomical telescopes of all sizes, all pointed at the sky. It was quite spectacular.
Ren Lu found a sofa and sat down. She had just eaten and her whole body was warm.
"Ms. Feng, here is a..." The waiter came over and whispered something to Feng Yuwei.
"Sister Lu, you play here first, I'll be back soon."
"Okay." Ren Lu nodded.
After resting for a while, she stood up and walked to a telescope, slowly adjusting it, trying to see the stars in the sky clearly.
"Mrs. Lu, you are in such a good mood that you start looking at the stars even before your husband's body is cold." A familiar and annoying male voice came.
Ren Lu took a deep breath and frowned. Without even turning around, she recognized who the person was.
"Hasn't Huo ever heard a saying? After the person who loves you dies, he will turn into stars in the sky and continue to watch over you. I think Si Nian is not far away, but is always watching me from the sky, so I want to come and see him too."
When she raised her head, the expression of disgust on her face had completely disappeared, replaced by gentleness and vigilance.
Gentleness is to commemorate Lu Sinian, and vigilance is reserved for this uncultured and annoying guy in front of him.
To be honest, sometimes she admires her own acting skills, how can she express such complex emotions so well.
Huo Xiao was obviously stunned for a moment, and after he reacted, he immediately sneered.
"The cameras here are out of order, and there are no outsiders here, so there's no need for Mrs. Lu to install one, right? You're young and beautiful, but your husband died, and you're left as a widow after inheriting the estate. It's unlucky to have a sad face when your good day comes. Mrs. Lu knows that I'm a person without quality anyway, so it's nothing if you reveal your dark side in front of me." His words were extremely sinister, and you deserve a beating just by hearing them.
"The stairs are over there, be quick when you roll." Ren Lu raised her hand and pointed, with a firm attitude to tell people to roll out.
"Mrs. Lu is so heartless. I was just joking."
He shrugged indifferently, not taking Ren Lu's disgust to heart at all. He even took a few steps forward, walked directly to the railing near her, and leaned lightly.
Huo Xiao was dressed like a magazine model, with a shirt and a casual suit, his sleeves half rolled up, and his hair styled carefully. Coupled with his leisurely attitude and deliberately posed poses, he completely had the temperament of a playboy.
Ren Lu narrowed her eyes and she instantly noticed that he was different.
A peacock spread his tail in front of her? What did this mean? Was he trying to seduce her?
She took out her cell phone and pressed the record button.
"Since Mr. Huo likes to joke so much, then keep going. Then post it all online and let netizens guess whether you were responsible for Lu Sinian's death or not?"
She didn't want to deal with this psychopath. Huo Xiao was the male protagonist in the tragic love story. This kind of person not only had poor quality, but also had an abnormal brain. She couldn't say much to him at all, otherwise she would be annoyed to death by him pestering her.
"Record it, I brought a jammer." Huo Xiao took out a small thing from his pocket and shook it. It was obvious that he came prepared this time.
Last time, because of the recording, he was pressed into the sand by Lu Sinian, and then forced to take off his pants and walk to the hotel wearing only his underwear. The result was known to the whole Internet, and he almost lost face for eight generations of his ancestors. He has learned his lesson a long time ago.
He won't make the same mistake a second time.
Ren Lu rolled her eyes at him: "If you have something to say, then you can fart."
"Mrs. Lu, don't be so fierce. I think the Lu family can't accommodate a big Buddha like you!"
When Ren Lu heard his suggestive words, she immediately narrowed her eyes and the alarm in her heart reached its highest point.
"What do you mean?"
"A wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. Mrs. Lu is still so young and extremely beautiful. She is definitely at the age of blooming. Such a beautiful flower will easily wither away from the gardener. Why don't you change the gardener?" He lowered his voice, with a hint of persuasion.
The man in front of me had a yuppie smile on his face, showing off his masculine charm in all aspects. Coupled with these words, the meaning was very clear.
Ren Lu felt it was extremely ridiculous. What was this?
She even thought she was hallucinating. Feng Yuwei was obviously supposed to be his heroine, and he was pursuing Feng Yuwei before, but he changed her halfway through?
This big idiot in front of me must be crazy.
"Who should I change? You?" she asked deliberately.
The man snapped his fingers, looking quite confident.
"Of course, I am younger than President Lu, equally handsome and wealthy. I have taken over many of the Lu family's businesses, and now I am superior to him. A beautiful woman should live with a strong man. This is a symbol of glory, for both you and me." He raised his voice a little, his eyes were surprisingly bright, and were filled with countless ambitions and a determination to win.
"You are used to the life of the rich. Once you leave this circle, even if you are beautiful and rich, you will no longer be a superior person. Why don't you change your husband's surname and become Mrs. Huo? I promise it will be more comfortable than you are in the Lu family."
"And Lu Sinian is not a good guy either. Don't be fooled by him. I have something that can help you get away from the Lu family without any negative public opinion." He was like a snake spitting out tongue, tempting Adam and Eve to swallow the forbidden fruit.
Obviously, he wanted to conquer Ren Lu tonight.
Meeting his eyes filled with excitement, Ren Lu felt her scalp tingling.
Huo Xiao is no longer a human being, but a beast. He seems to have lost his human sanity and been taken over by animal wildness.
He didn't regard Ren Lu as a human being, but just as a trophy, a symbol just like the properties of the Lu family that he had robbed.
Because Ren Lu is Lu Sinian's woman, he wants to snatch her away to prove to the world that he is better than Lu Sinian.
As expected of a male protagonist with no quality, he is already terminally ill.
Ren Lu's expression was one of disbelief at first, then she gradually became hesitant and thought slowly, and finally a playful smile appeared on her face.
"Mr. Huo's words make sense, but I firmly believe that God is watching what we do. I might as well leave it to God to decide what I should do. If Mr. Huo can find the Orion constellation, I will listen to you, how about that?"
"It's a deal." Huo Xiao gritted his teeth, suppressing the pride that was gushing out of his heart. He took two steps over and went to the telescope next to her.
As he bent over to observe, his shoulder deliberately brushed against hers, a simple and intimate physical collision with a strong sense of ambiguity.
At the stairs, Feng Yuwei had been hiding there for some time. When Huo Xiao started talking nonsense just now, she wanted to rush out, but she also wanted to see Ren Lu's reaction.
Faced with Ren Lu's series of changes and the tacit little interactions between the two, Feng Yuwei's face turned pale as paper in an instant. She clenched her teeth, her eyes were red, and tears were about to fall. She didn't know whether she was sad or humiliated.
Just when Huo Xiao got close to the camera, the situation suddenly changed. Ren Lu grabbed the hair on the back of his head and slammed him directly into the camera.
"Fuck!"
Huo Xiao cried out in pain and saw stars, but before he could react, Ren Lu grabbed his hair and pulled his head back.
She raised her other hand and slapped him hard in the face.
"Let me choose the right tree to live in. Okay, go back and tell your dad that I want to be your grandmother!"
"Who do you think you are? You want me to be your wife. Are you worthy? You little bastard, remember to call me grandma next time we meet."
After slapping him a few times, she felt unsatisfied. Seeing that he was dizzy and in tears, she immediately decided to kill him while he was sick.
She found the right angle, raised her foot and kicked him in the ass.
"This is a gift from grandma to you, a kick that will end your family lineage." After she finished kicking, she felt the man gradually recovering and struggling.
She immediately threw him to the ground and moved away.
"Stay away from me!" After saying this, she ran downstairs without looking back, without even having time to look at the stars.
When she ran to the stairs, she happened to see Feng Yuwei with a horrified look on her face. Ren Lu immediately grabbed her wrist and ran downstairs.
Fortunately, the driver was waiting not far away, and the two got in the car and drove straight to the villa.
Huo Xiao, who stayed on the top floor, was still lying on the ground, curled up with a look of pain on his face.
He had stars in his eyes, and even now his eyes are still painful, and he couldn't control the physiological tears.
"Fuck, it's been a long time since I cried. Ren Lu, you're dead!" He gritted his teeth and hated this woman to death.
Now not only his eyes and face hurt, but also his vitals hurt.
He had weaknesses all over his body, and there had never been a moment when he felt so vulnerable. He was scared after being beaten once.
This woman is really vicious, scheming and resourceful, and she is very ruthless, leaving no room for mercy.
Feng Yuwei sat on the sofa, still gasping for breath, with a frightened expression on her face.
"Sister Lu, you are so awesome. You beat him up like that. Have you practiced before?" She asked while clenching her fists, raising her arms, and swinging them in boxing movements.
"Of course I have practiced. It is very tiring to accompany Lu Sinian." She blurted out.
Ren Lu's heart was beating fast. Although it felt good to beat someone up just now, and Huo Xiao did deserve a beating, she was still very nervous after actually beating him up, so her emotions were still unstable and she said what was in her heart.
Fortunately, Feng Yuwei was relatively simple-minded and didn't have her head full of pornographic garbage. She didn't think about it that way and immediately nodded: "I can understand this. Brother Lu is very energetic. I heard that he went to play basketball after a meeting overnight and won a place. He is simply an amazing person."
After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but give a thumbs up, but then she remembered that Lu Sinian was dead, and was afraid of making Ren Lu sad, so she immediately changed the subject.
"Sister Lu was very agile just now. I have to sign up for a class when I get back and start practicing quickly to avoid running into such a stinky man." Feng Yuwei stood up immediately and started practicing on the spot, waving her fists, as if she was imagining that it was Huo Xiao's face in front of her and she was beating him up.
"You'd better not meet him. Huo Xiao has practiced it before, and he's much more proficient than me. I was able to beat him just now, not by force, but by wits. First, I paralyzed him with words, so that he would come closer and relax his guard. Then I deliberately let him look through the telescope, so that I could hit him with one blow, and also hurt his vital part, the eyes."
Ren Lu was very satisfied with the victory in the previous encounter. She couldn't help but recall it and even raised her hand to touch her eyes.
"You see, after he was hit hard, he had no ability to fight back and could only silently endure the darkness. Under such favorable circumstances, I continued to beat him and finally hit him hard in the vitals. Of course, I have to thank him for keeping his hair. If he had a buzz cut, I would not be able to catch him at all."
She talked more and more excitedly, and she seemed to be eager to throw a few more punches.
"Sister Lu is so awesome!" Feng Yuwei kept clapping, her eyes sparkling, completely transformed into a little fangirl.
"How did Huo Xiao get up there? Did you see him downstairs?" Ren Lu asked.
Feng Yuwei immediately shook her head: "No, by the way, now that I think about it, the waiter might have been bribed by him in advance. It wasn't an important matter that he asked me to come downstairs. He said that he saw that you were in a bad mood and prepared a surprise for you. I followed him happily. How could there be such a nosy waiter!"
They were not regular customers, and they did not tell the customer in advance that someone had a birthday. They even prepared a surprise when they saw that the customer was in a bad mood. Now it seems that there was something wrong.
Ren Lu frowned and started to think about it.
Huo Xiao is not the kind of person who acts without purpose. At this time, he should be busy devouring the Lu family's assets, but he came all the way here. It is obvious that he has something important to find her, and he certainly doesn't really want to seduce her to be Mrs. Huo.
Her mind raced, and she gradually recalled the man's last few words, which mentioned the issue of public opinion.
Instantly she had a guess in her mind.
Could it be that Huo Xiao found out something, and it was evidence that Lu Sinian was unfaithful in his marriage?
When she thought of this, Ren Lu's heartbeat gradually accelerated.
Oops, I was so busy beating him just now that I didn't listen carefully. I should have asked him clearly to find out what evidence he had found about Lu Sinian.
She really wished someone would take action.
In fact, after she deleted the email, she regretted it. Why did she become so soft-hearted? Jiang Xiu was good to her, and she should repay Jiang Xiu instead of showing mercy to Lu Sinian.
Lu Sinian is not a good person, he deserves to be exploited for his misfortune!
"Sister Lu, what are you thinking about?"
Ren Lu was lost in thought for a moment and couldn't help showing an annoyed expression. Seeing this, Feng Yuwei immediately woke her up.
"Hey, I'm regretting that I didn't take the opportunity to hit him a few more times. He still got it easy." She said casually.
"That's enough. Hahaha. He definitely won't be able to show up these days. This is retribution. Who told him to keep stealing things from the Lu family? Let's see how he can take charge of the overall situation! This kind of person is simply a lunatic!" Feng Yuwei showed an expression of disgust on her face. She even rubbed her arms and felt goose bumps all over.
How could there be someone as perverted as Huo Xiao in this world!
