"Why would my family come looking for me when everyone is perfectly fine?"
Lan'er exclaimed in surprise.
Her family had sold her to the Lu family long ago because of their poverty, and they had rarely come to see her in recent years.
Although I still resent that my parents sold me when I was a child, fortunately, my family rarely asked me for money after I was sold, so my resentment towards them has faded over time.
She thought that perhaps her family was really so poor when she was a child that they had no other choice.
"I don't know the specifics, but your mother seemed very anxious, and there was some blood on her. I wonder if something happened."
"What? Where is my mother now?"
When Lan'er heard the servant say that her mother had blood on her body, she was terrified. Without thinking, she hurriedly followed the servant.
After entering the room, Lu Shuangdie felt her head gradually becoming dizzy. Just as she reached out to take off her coat, she suddenly felt an arm reach out from behind and wrap around her waist.
"Who is it!"
Lu Shuangdie shouted alertly.
"Butterfly, don't be afraid, it's me."
Su Xuanlang gently sniffed Lu Shuangdie's head, his voice soft and alluring.
"Young Master Su...?"
Lu Shuangdie was shocked and tried to pull away, but Su Xuanlang pulled her even tighter.
"What are you doing? Young Master Su, let me go! This is my boudoir!"
Lu Shuangdie finally understood Su Xuanlang's intentions and began to struggle violently.
"Butterfly, don't blame me. You refused to listen to reason and now you're asking for trouble. I didn't want to do this either, but you asked me to be your brother. I don't want to be your brother."
I know today might affect your reputation a little, but don't worry, as long as you marry me and behave well, I will always treat you well.
Su Xuanlang whispered in Lu Shuangdie's ear.
Meanwhile, Zhao Liancheng, who was hiding in the shadows, was furious when he saw this scene. He never expected that Su Xuanlang would be this kind of person!
He desperately wanted to go down and stop them, but Su Liluo and the others had already used acupressure on him.
Seeing his angry expression, Su Liluo said, "Do you still think that Su Xuanlang's actions are justifiable? Don't rush, wait a while, and you can see his true character for yourself."
Su Liluo felt that Zhao Liancheng was too soft-hearted, which was far from enough. She planned to wait until the critical moment to go down and save Lu Shuangdie, so that Zhao Liancheng would be taught a lesson!
"Let me go! Let me go! Young Master Su, please don't do this!"
Lu Shuangdie struggled desperately, but Su Xuanlang held her tightly in his arms.
Su Xuanlang let her struggle without making any further moves, because he wanted to see her eventually succumb to the effects of the drug and throw herself into his arms.
He had always been the one to humble himself and fawn over her, and he especially wanted to see this woman begging for mercy in front of him.
However, Lu Shuangdie was extremely stubborn. Even though she felt like she was on fire all over her body, she knew that Su Xuanlang in front of her was like a block of ice. As long as she held him tightly, she could rush to bliss.
However, the last shred of reason she retained made her resist fiercely.
Her lips were bleeding from being bitten so hard, and her cheeks had turned an unnatural color. "No...no..."
She murmured in despair, tears streaming down her face, almost forming a small river.
Zhao Liancheng's eyes were practically popping out of their sockets with rage.
At this moment, Su Liluo saw that the time was right, so she released his pressure points and pushed him into the room.
"Bang!"
"You beast! Su Xuanlang, release Miss Lu at once!"
Driven by anger, Zhao Liancheng forgot the pain of his fall, limped over and tackled Su Xuanlang, then slapped him several times in the face.
Before Su Xuanlang could react, Zhao Liancheng pinned him to the ground and beat him.
Lu Shuangdie was sobbing beside her. The effects of the drug had clouded her mind, and she didn't realize it was Zhao Liancheng.
"Brother Zhao... Brother Zhao? You... how could you..."
After being beaten for a while, Su Xuanlang slowly realized that the person beating him was Zhao Liancheng.
He was horrified, unsure whether it was his imagination or the return of Zhao Liancheng's ghost.
"I'll beat you to death, you beast! How could you treat Miss Lu like this? I was so sincere to you, I treated you like a brother, but I never expected you to be such a hypocrite!"
Zhao Liancheng was still furious and threw another punch at him.
"Brother Zhao, you...you must stop! You've misunderstood me, it's not like that..."
Seeing that Zhao Liancheng seemed to have gone mad, Su Xuanlang, though unsure why he had suddenly appeared, instinctively tried to explain.
After all, he didn't want to be beaten to death like that!
Seeing that Zhao Liancheng couldn't control his behavior, and fearing that he might kill someone and end up harming himself, Su Liluo and Xiao Ye also jumped down from the shadows.
"Stop! You'll go to jail even if you kill him. Let's save your Miss Lu first!"
Su Lilu rebuked him coldly.
Zhao Liancheng stopped what he was doing when he heard Lu Shuangdie's voice and quickly ran to her side.
At this moment, Lu Shuangdie, already under the influence of the drug, began to undress herself.
"Miss Lu, you can't do this!"
Zhao Liancheng tried to pull her clothes back up, but Lu Shuangdie couldn't help but snuggle into his arms, which startled Zhao Liancheng.
To make matters worse, at that moment, a series of loud footsteps suddenly came from outside.
Listen, it doesn't sound like just one or two people, but rather a group of people.
"What's wrong with Die'er? How could she suddenly get sick? She was perfectly fine this morning!"
"Could this butterfly have suddenly caught some kind of illness? This is the season when all sorts of diseases flare up. If it really has some kind of disease, that would be terrible!"
"Has the doctor you asked for arrived yet? --- Oh dear, why isn't there even a maidservant guarding the gate? Butterfly, Butterfly..."
I could vaguely hear the voices of several elders talking, and then the door was pushed open with a bang as the sound of butterflies was heard.
"this......"
When Dean Lu and his wife saw that there were five or six people in Lu Shuangdie's room, including two strangers, and the already dead Zhao Liancheng standing there, they were instantly stunned.
"Zhao... Zhao Liancheng, you, weren't you dead? And you all, who are you? What are you doing in my Die'er's room!"
After a moment of stunned silence, Dean Lu finally reacted and questioned loudly.
"Dean! You, you must save me! They suddenly broke in, intending to do something indecent to Miss Lu. I tried to stop them, but they outnumbered me!"
Su Xuanlang was the first to react, and he turned the tables on Zhao Liancheng.
"You, how could you lie?"
Zhao Liancheng was disgusted by Su Xuanlang's shamelessness once again.
