Chapter 229: The Hateful Ex-lover



Fang Rou stood there, in disbelief.

"My Lord, is this how you see me in your heart?" Even though she had known for a long time that their relationship was no longer as strong as it used to be, at this moment, looking at this face glaring at her, Fang Rou still felt so unfamiliar.

Could it be that, in Lu Jing's heart, she is a vicious woman who will do anything to get what she wants?!

"Do you dare to say you haven't done it?" Lu Jing shouted loudly.

He doesn't believe it.

He actually really doesn't believe in himself!

Fang Rou's eyes grew hot, but she suddenly smiled, "Lu Jing, after knowing you for so many years, I just realized that I actually don't understand you at all!"

If she knew what kind of person Lu Jing was, would she still have rushed into it so enthusiastically?

Put all your hopes and future on this man?

Fang Rou didn’t know, but her hesitation already represented the answer.

Her sad reaction did not seem fake. Compared with her noisy explanation, Fang Rou's heart-breaking calmness made Lu Jing even more panicked.

Did he wrong her?

However, in this mansion, apart from her, no one else has the motivation to do this!

For a moment, Lu Jing didn't dare to look at Fang Rou's eyes. The disappointment and despair in them were too much for him to bear.

He chose to escape.

"I'll send someone to investigate. During this time, you'd better not take any other actions."

Look, this is the man she chose. Even though he has realized his mistake, he still insists on being stubborn.

Looking at Lu Jing leaving without looking back, Fang Rou suddenly felt very bored.

There was no point in fighting in this mansion, no point in being subservient in front of Lu Jing every day, and she even found the position of mistress meaningless.

The only thing that kept her going was her son.

It didn't take long for Fang Rou to figure out the reason why Lu Jing suddenly got angry.

It turned out that Lu Sinian suddenly vomited uncontrollably while being fed. The old lady was shocked and quickly asked the doctor to come into the house, only to find that the food was poisonous!

"Such a young child was poisoned. I don't know if he can survive."

"Yeah, I don't know who is so cruel that he wouldn't even let such a young child go."

"I heard it was the one in the backyard... Hey, don't tell anyone, I just heard it from others..."

The news of Lu Sinian being poisoned caused a lot of uproar in the mansion.

As the mistress of the house, Shen Ruoyan ordered everyone not to talk nonsense. If they were discovered, they would be expelled from the house. This made the house quiet.

However, Lu Jing has said that this matter must be investigated thoroughly!

Everyone in the mansion must be searched, and the murderer who poisoned Lu Sinian must be found!

"It's different for a child you like. If he's poisoned, you want to turn the mansion upside down to find out who's trying to harm him. It's a pity that my Yan'er was rendered mute by the poison. It seems everyone in this mansion has also become mute. Not a single person said a word."

Shen Ruoyan laughed at herself, and Chun Xi felt distressed. She was with Madam during those days, so she understood Madam's feelings now.

"Madam, everything is over. Now the prince will never be treated like that again."

Including you.

Chunxi thought secretly in her heart.

In the past, Shen Ruoyan was cowardly and could be bullied, but now, she has changed and knows how to use her advantages to protect herself and those around her.

So now, neither she nor Lu Yan will experience everything that happened before again!

Although Shen Ruoyan spoke from his heart, he did feel sorry for the original owner.

She had already found some clues about what happened back then, but all of these clues pointed to the wrong people.

Thinking of that possibility, the sarcasm on Shen Ruoyan's face changed from three points to seven points, and the remaining three points were all hatred!

Since some people don't even have basic conscience, don't blame her for being cruel!

Lu Sinian was young and fell into a coma after being poisoned. Fortunately, he didn't have a good appetite that day and didn't eat much. Shen Ruoyan specially found Doctor Xu to treat him, and he saved his life.

"It's just that I'm injured. I'm afraid I'll have to take good care of myself from now on."

Doctor Xu said this tactfully, but everyone present understood what he meant.

Lu Sinian's body is equivalent to a weak disease, and he will have to keep company with medicine bottles from now on!

"Who is so cruel as to want to harm my son?" Zhu Hong knelt in front of Lu Jing, crying and shouting at the top of her lungs, "My Lord, you must do something for Si Nian!"

Lu Sinian had just been born, carrying all the hopes of Old Madam Lu and Lu Jing, who even intended to train him as their heir. But now such a thing happened.

Many people actually pointed their suspicions towards Shen Ruoyan.

However, Shen Ruoyan is usually fair and has good management skills. In addition, she comes from a noble family and has her mother's family as a background. Most people don't think that she would do such a thing.

This does not fit her identity as a mistress.

What's more, to the outside world, Lu Yan is still the prince of the Marquis' Mansion, and it was bestowed by the emperor himself.

Unless Lu Yan dies or commits some serious crime of treason, the Crown Prince will not be deposed easily.

How could a concubine's illegitimate son pose a threat to the wife's legitimate son?

Therefore, this conjecture was quickly forgotten by everyone, and more people still focused their attention on Fang Rou -

She had no son, and after Lu Sinian was born, Zhuhong became more powerful because of her son, so it was understandable that she took action out of jealousy.

"idiot!"

"They are all a bunch of idiots!"

When Fang Rou returned to her room, she was so angry that her head was dizzy. She had wanted to go out and relax today, but she didn't expect to hear the servants gossiping in private.

No matter what, she is the one most likely to harm Lu Sinian!

Because she was born in a humble family, she couldn't bear to see Zhuhong and her son being favored!

She also said that she couldn't give birth to a son, so she couldn't bear to see Zhuhong have a son. She was afraid that Zhuhong would have a son to rely on in the future, while she didn't, so she killed her!

What ridiculous speculation! Do these people even have brains?

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Lu Ankang saw Fang Rou coming in and got so angry that he asked curiously, "Did anyone offend you?"

He blinked his big eyes, looking so clever and cute. Fang Rou's anger subconsciously dissipated a little, and she softened her voice and said, "It's nothing, just a few gossipy servants talking nonsense. They actually said that Lu Sinian was killed by your mother. How ridiculous!"

Although Fang Rou did want to fight for power, she disdained to use such means.

As a mother herself, she knows how painful it is to be without children.

Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you. Although she has little education, she knows this principle.

Even though she was fighting fiercely with Zhuhong, she never thought of harming her child!

However, Fang Rou never expected that someone else would think of something she hadn't thought of before...
