Xu Lu was stunned by the commotion. With two red slaps across her face, she immediately grabbed the bystander and questioned him incredulously:
"What did you just say? She's the heiress of the Ye Group?"
The bystander rudely shook off Xu Lu's hand, looked at her as if she were crazy, and said:
"What's wrong with you, woman? Why are you touching people inappropriately right away?"
Xu Lu, however, yelled hysterically at the passersby:
"Tell me quickly, was that woman really the daughter of the Ye Group?"
A passerby rolled his eyes at her and said sarcastically to Xu Lu, "Don't you know him? Don't you even know who he is? That's ridiculous."
At this moment, a kind passerby couldn't bear to watch any longer and said to Xu Lu:
"Beautiful lady, that girl just now is the heiress of the Ye Group. Didn't you know about the uproar caused by her ex-husband's live stream begging to get back together?"
Xu Lu was stunned; she really didn't know.
To avoid online harassment, she had gone abroad and only returned to China three days ago. She hadn't had time to find out anything about Ye Huanhuan's identity.
At this moment, the mall manager came over and said to Xu Lu, "Miss, the surveillance footage has been retrieved. Let me take you to see it."
Upon hearing this, Xu Lu ignored the onlookers and immediately composed herself before following the manager to the mall's surveillance room.
"Miss, this is the surveillance video from this time period. You can take a look," a security guard said.
As he spoke, the manager took out a tablet computer and adjusted the surveillance video to show the scene of Xu Lu buying a bag in the store.
Xu Lu stared wide-eyed at the surveillance video.
Suddenly, she saw an astonishing scene.
After she paid for the bag, her boyfriend Zeng Tianlong took out a high-quality counterfeit bag from his backpack and switched it with her new one.
"How is this possible..."
Xu Lu could hardly believe her eyes. She never imagined that her boyfriend would do such a thing.
She couldn't believe it at all, but the facts were right in front of her, leaving her no choice but to believe them.
"How could this be?"
Completely bewildered, she walked out of the mall's surveillance room, distraught, intending to call Zeng Tianlong on her phone.
After the call was connected, Zeng Tianlong's voice came directly from the other end of the phone:
"Lulu, are you ready with your money? This project I'm involved in is incredibly profitable. My friend said that if you invest another ten million, you're guaranteed to earn a hundred million in a year. Are you really not planning to increase your investment?"
Xu Lu bit her lip and asked Zeng Tianlong, "Did you switch the bag I bought a few days ago?"
Zeng Tianlong on the other end of the phone was stunned, feeling a pang of guilt as if he had been caught red-handed doing something wrong. His voice even weakened, but he still refused to admit it, saying:
"Lulu, what are you talking about? How could I do such a thing? Don't you even trust me?"
Xu Lu: "Tianlong, I've seen the surveillance footage. Are you still trying to deny it?"
Zeng Tianlong's heart sank. He knew the matter could no longer be concealed, but he still wanted to try his best to salvage the situation, so he pretended to be aggrieved and said:
"Lulu, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to do that. Where are you? I'm coming to you now. Please let me explain."
Xu Lu said angrily, "Tianlong, haven't I treated you well all these years? I've done so much for you, even shamelessly seducing my friend's husband. Not only that, we even sacrificed our child. I gave you most of the money I got from that man. When I was abroad, you told me about a project that could make money, and I invested ten million without thinking. Now that I'm back, you say you need to invest another ten million, and I still chose to believe you. I even returned the new bag I just bought to raise the money for your investment. I never expected you to even switch the bag I bought. How could you do this to me?"
Zeng Tianlong quickly explained, "Lulu, listen to me, I really didn't lie to you, this project really does make money..."
Xu Lu was both exhausted and angry. She hung up the phone immediately and refused to listen to Zeng Tianlong's explanation.
After she took her family abroad, Zeng Tianlong went with her.
At that time, she had just received a huge sum of money and was overjoyed, dreaming every day of living a life of luxury.
However, the reality was quite different. Zeng Tianlong directly asked her for 50 million yuan, saying he wanted to go back to China to buy a house, a car, and a company to plan for their future.
She never suspected Zeng Tianlong, so she directly gave him 50 million yuan, and her parents each gave him 5 million yuan for living expenses.
But her good fortune didn't last long. Her parents somehow got into gambling and quickly squandered all their money. She only had 40 million left, and after a series of purchases, she was left with only 28 million. After investing in Zeng Tianlong, she had only 18 million left.
By this time, no one remembered that Xu Lu had framed Ye Huanhuan online. In order to help her parents quit gambling, she quickly took her family back to China.
During this time, she heard from Zeng Tianlong that the Song family had offended someone and was now facing bankruptcy. Xu Lu didn't love Song Lin to begin with, so she broke up with him without saying a word.
In this way, she could be with Zeng Tianlong openly and legitimately.
However, to her surprise, Zeng Tianlong took her money and went on to make some kind of investment. He didn't set up a company, let alone buy a car or a house.
Although she was disappointed, she still chose to believe Zeng Tianlong. After all, in Xu Lu's eyes, Zeng Tianlong was really making plans for their future.
So, she planned to raise money to invest in Zeng Tianlong. She had just returned to China and bought a bag that she no longer needed, so she was thinking of returning it. Unexpectedly, she discovered that Zeng Tianlong had secretly switched the bag she bought.
How could she not be angry? It's just a bag, why did he have to do this behind her back?
Not only did she embarrass herself in public, but Ye Huanhuan also slapped her twice in front of everyone. Doesn't she have any dignity?
