Chapter 256 This way she will never leave you
Country A, an abandoned warehouse somewhere in a remote suburb.
Lu Yi was tied to a metal chair, with his wrists and ankles secured with special restraints.
His eyes were covered with a black cloth, but there was a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.
The silver hair shone with tiny lights under the light, as bright as a shooting star, yet seemed to disappear in a flash.
"Long time no see, Lu Yi." A female voice sounded in Lu Yi's dark world, and he keenly judged the other party's identity.
"Mom, what game do you want to play this time?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the black cloth covering his eyes was suddenly torn off.
Strong light from several incandescent lamps shone directly into his pupils, and the burning sensation made his eyeballs tremble slightly, but he stubbornly refused to close his eyes. He stared directly at the light source with his eyes open, and his bright red lips curled into an almost crazy smile.
"Photophobia" seems not to be a punishment from God, but a provocation from the world to him.
He will face this provocation head-on and will never bow his head.
The color of his pupils became paler, his eye sockets were scarlet and tears were overflowing, the restraints dug deep into his pale wrists, leaving a circle of light pink indentations on his skin.
The sound of high heels hitting the concrete floor came from far away, and the incandescent lamp suddenly turned off, leaving only a dim light.
Lu Yi's eyes lost focus briefly. He closed his eyes for a while, and when he opened them again, his light pink pupils focused on the woman in front of him who was wearing a black cheongsam with gold thread.
Then he smiled playfully and said, "Mom, your methods are still so simple and straightforward."
The implication: nothing new.
Bai Yujin chuckled and slowly moved her long hair to her left shoulder. Her naturally charming eyes filled up slightly, and a few fine lines inevitably appeared at the corners of her eyes.
"The means aren't important; the result is everything." Bai Yujin's fingers, painted with bright red nail polish, brushed across Lu Yi's cheek, leaving a few shallow marks on his pale, fragile skin. "You're thirty-one, and you're still not past your rebellious phase?"
Lu Yi tilted his head to avoid her touch, his silver hair shimmering like metal under the dim light. "Thanks to you, I'm afraid I'll never get over my rebellious phase in this lifetime."
The sound of shaking iron chains came from the corner of the warehouse. Bai Yujin turned and walked towards the shadow. The sound of her high heels stepping on the concrete floor was like some kind of countdown.
She dragged out a silver metal box, and there was a soft "beep" sound when her fingerprint unlocked it.
"Do you know why I'm looking for you?" She opened the box and took out a syringe filled with light blue liquid.
Lu Yi's pupils shrank slightly, but the smile on his lips deepened. "What? Ms. Bai finally found her conscience and wants to inject the antidote into her son?"
"You really knew you were drugged all along." The needle tip flashed coldly under the light, and Bai Yujin slowly pushed away the air bubbles in the syringe. "You should be grateful to me for giving you this body. Without the genetic modification of the drug, how could you have your current abilities?"
"Ability?" Lu Yi suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter echoing in the empty warehouse. "Do you mean photophobia, anemia, or the need for sedatives every 72 hours to maintain a sense of rationality?"
He struggled violently against the restraints, causing the metal chair to make a harsh scraping sound. "What kind of gift is this?"
Bai Yujin remained unmoved. She approached Lu Yi and pressed her cold fingers against his throbbing carotid artery. "But you can't deny that you have an exceptional IQ. Otherwise, how could you and Lu Heng overthrow the Lu Group's century-old foundation in just a few years?"
Lu Yi's pupils suddenly constricted, and soon he began to laugh crazily again, "It turns out that the person who wants the Lu family to fall more than us is you. It turns out that you have been deliberately using us and leading us to bring down the Lu family!"
"Yes, since you can bring down the Lu family..." The needle tip touched Lu Yi's skin, and Bai Yujin raised a strange smile: "Then, it should be easier to bring down the Meng family, right?"
The moment the blue liquid pushed into his blood vessels, Lu Yi's pupils suddenly dilated. He bit his tongue, the taste of blood filling his mouth, using the pain to fight against the rapidly spreading numbness.
His sanity was gradually leaving his body.
Bai Yujin casually threw the empty injection on the ground, leaned over and whispered into Lu Yi's ear, deliberately softening her voice like a devil's whisper: "Good boy, go and ruin Meng Anran's reputation. That way... she will never leave you."

The spoon in Meng Anran's hand suddenly fell into the soup bowl, making a crisp collision sound.
"What's wrong?" Qin Mu immediately pulled her hand over and checked it carefully. "Are you burned?"
"It's okay, my hand just slipped." Meng Anran smiled with her red lips and pulled her hand back.
She stared at the swaying soup noodles in the bowl, and the feeling of uneasiness became stronger and stronger, but she suppressed it in her heart and did not show it in front of others.
"Oh, right!" Liu Zhi suddenly remembered that she had something to tell Meng Yushu. She immediately put down her chopsticks, fished out a USB drive from her bag, and handed it over. "Brother Yushu, I have some dirty laundry on Xingyao Entertainment. In the first half of the year, Wang Yuelong organized several cruise parties, and half of the female artists from his company were called in."
Liu Zhi did not specify what happened at the party, but Meng Yushu is also in the entertainment industry.
This so-called party event invited so many female artists, and Liu Zhi avoided talking about key information. It was probably not a serious event.
"Thank you, that's been a great help." Meng Yushu smiled gently, her peach blossom eyes seemed to be able to drown people.
After getting pregnant, Liu Zhi became more stable and no longer acted like a crazy fan like before. But Qin Yan, who was standing next to her, covered her mouth with her hands and laughed, stamping her feet in excitement.
Qin Mu held his sister's shoulders and asked, "ADHD?"
Qin Yan muffled his voice and uttered two words: "So handsome!"
Qin Mu: ...
He subconsciously looked towards Meng Yushu, took a closer look at the other person's appearance, and then silently looked away.
Okay, it's really handsome.
No wonder Meng Anran has been saying for a few years that her brother was born to be an actor.
After dinner, Qin Mu was responsible for sending Meng Anran home, while Qin Yan stared at Meng Anran with anticipation, with stars almost popping out of her eyes.
Meng Anran understood what she meant immediately and reluctantly handed over her car keys. She then said to Meng Yushu, "Brother, why don't you accompany Yanyan back home? She just got her driver's license and wants to practice driving. I'm not sure if she can drive back by herself."
Meng Yushu glanced at Qin Yan, then at his sister, and understood what she meant. He smiled and said, "Sure, where will you park your car then?"
"Just drive back to the apartment. I'm not in a hurry to use the car." Meng Anran quickly made arrangements, then rubbed Qin Yan's head as if she were her own sister. "Drive carefully, don't hurt my brother."
Qin Yan immediately raised three fingers and swore, "Don't worry, sister-in-law!"
