Chapter 241 Only the dead can keep secrets



"What do I want?"

Fang Rou was stunned and couldn't answer for a moment.

In her life, her heart was with Lu Jing in the first half and with Lu Ankang in the second half. Every minute and every second of her existence was spent on infinite dedication to these two people.

When she stopped, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have forgotten when was the last time she thought about herself.

Betrayed by her son and abandoned by her husband, Fang Rou felt that her whole life was meaningless.

She didn't want to admit her failure, but she had to face her helplessness. The mess in her life finally shattered her proud head and made her realize that her life was indeed a joke!

“I want to live for myself!”

Fang Rou raised her head, and a new light shone in her eyes.

She didn't want revenge. That was the man she truly loved, the child she risked her life to give birth to. She didn't owe them anything. And now, she no longer had any lingering feelings for them.

But she still wants to live!

I want to live seriously for myself!

"Since I was born, I have never been loved by my family. After meeting Lu Jing, his love made me feel like the happiest person in the world. Even if he never fulfilled his promise, as long as he still loves me, I can endure it."

Lu Jing did still love her, but he didn't love only her.

Fang Rou could tolerate Lu Jing being affectionate to other women, or even being unfaithful, as long as his heart was 100% with her, that was enough.

But now Lu Jing has too many people in his heart.

The gentle and generous wife, the tender Zhuhong, the lively and cheerful Liulv... In the future, there will be even more people living in Lu Jing's heart.

His heart is too big, and I can't accommodate it.

As for Lu Ankang, this child...it's better not to mention him.

She was so heartbroken that she couldn't even feel the pain anymore. She just thought that the good times in the past were just a dream and let her memory of her son stay in the past.

"Lu Jing betrayed me, my son abandoned me. I have nothing else to ask for but to live happily for the rest of my life!"

Lu Ankang pushed the crime of poisoning Lu Sinian onto her. From the moment he made this choice, their mother-son relationship came to an end.

Now Lu Yan's past deeds are involved again. Fang Rou knows that if this matter is really done by Old Madam Lu, then her situation is very dangerous!

In this mansion, the only person who can save her is Shen Ruoyan!

"You are very smart." Shen Ruoyan said with a smile. She still looked so gentle and soft, but the smile did not reach her eyes, which made Fang Rou unconsciously put away the little thoughts hidden in her heart.

Never mind, enough is enough.

She is not qualified to negotiate terms with Shen Ruoyan now.

"Don't worry, your request is easy for me. As long as you can do what I ask, the future will be bright and open. You can fly freely as long as you want!"

This world is very small, so small that whenever you go out, anyone you meet may be related to your ancestors.

The world is so big that even if you are right across from each other, you can still remain unfamiliar with each other as long as you make up your mind.

It depends on you, how you choose!

Fang Rou had already made her choice, and Chun Xi then stepped forward to tell her what to do next. Fang Rou listened very carefully, because she knew that every step she took would determine her future destiny.

Don't be careless!

"Take the people away, this place is no longer safe."

After Shen Ruoyan left, he arranged for someone to take Fang Rou away overnight.

They moved quickly without alerting anyone. When news of a fire broke out in the place where Fang Rou was imprisoned the next morning, Chun Xi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

What a coincidence!

"They say the firewood was too dry, causing the flood. Although it was discovered in time, the house is completely destroyed!"

The person who came to report had dust on his face and dark circles under his eyes. He was obviously very tired.

As he spoke, he felt puzzled. "There is indeed a pile of firewood there, but usually no one goes there. This time, I brought Concubine Fang there without even preparing candles. It doesn't make sense that a fire would suddenly start..."

Shen Ruoyan and Chun Xi looked at each other, then slowly smiled.

"This fire is indeed strange. We need to report it to Grandmother. Oh, Qiuye, go find the Marquis as well. We can't keep this serious matter from him."

She sent someone to invite Lu Jing, and she herself led her people towards Madam Lu's residence.

The old lady got up early, and when Shen Ruoyan came over, she had even finished her breakfast.

Seeing her coming over, he was even surprised, "Why are you free today and come to me?"

She had already stopped paying her respects. Shen Ruoyan was usually very busy and sometimes she was not seen all day. Madam Lu was used to it.

Anyway, she doesn't want to see this granddaughter-in-law often, because every time she sees her, she feels like nothing good is happening.

"It's my granddaughter-in-law's fault for bothering grandma so early. But something big has indeed happened!" Shen Ruoyan said anxiously.

Madam Lu took the handkerchief handed to her calmly, wiped her hands slowly, and asked, "What happened? Look how anxious you are!"

Shen Ruoyan is usually a person who can remain calm even when facing a disaster, but now he is so anxious. It is obvious that something big has happened.

Mrs. Lu was full of anticipation, but she didn't show it on her face. She just waited quietly for her to speak.

"Grandma, Fang Rou is dead!"

"What?!" Madam Lu exclaimed in surprise. "She was fine yesterday, how could she suddenly die? Could it be that she felt she deserved the punishment for her sins and committed suicide?"

"Suicide?" Shen Ruoyan widened his eyes in disbelief, "That shouldn't be the case, right?"

Madam Lu quickly said, "Why not? She has done so many vicious things. Maybe in the dead of night, when she thought about it, her conscience couldn't bear it, so she chose to commit suicide."

She acted like she'd seen this happen many times before. "You're still young, so it's normal for you not to understand. Many people eventually become guilty and start tormenting themselves."

"Really?" Shen Ruoyan felt that this old lady was indeed powerful. If she didn't know the truth, she would probably be taught a lesson by her.

But who is younger than who?

The old lady of the Lu family is totally unqualified to act as an elder in front of her!

"But grandma, we found signs of arson at the scene, and we've already caught the perpetrator!"

"What?!"

This time, Mrs. Lu’s surprise was not fake.

What's going on?

She subconsciously wanted to look at the nanny next to her, but she restrained herself with her strong rationality.

I could only wonder in my heart: "Didn't they say that the person had been sent out of the mansion? Why was he arrested again?"
