Chapter 642: Just an illegitimate daughter
Lu Yingxue covered her cheeks, feeling the numbness and burning pain on her skin.
She had just slapped Ye Ying in the villa, and the slap hit her face so quickly.
She bit her lip and tried to appear kind: "Auntie, what are you doing?"
Lu Yutong examined her face. Lu Yingxue was indeed beautiful and refined. Although her features were not as gorgeous as others, she knew how to play to her strengths and avoid her weaknesses. Her appearance was clearly only 70%, but she managed to elevate it to 90%.
It’s a pity that his right cheek is now wrapped in gauze and looks seriously injured.
Her voice was a little hoarse as she spoke, "When I went abroad, you were only as tall as the table. Back then, you were still very close to me, your aunt. After all these years, you finally lived up to everyone's expectations and grew up to be as calculating and profit-seeking as him."
"Auntie, did you come back just to scold me? That's really an exaggeration. If you want to teach the younger generation a lesson, you can just make a phone call. Why travel all the way here?"
There was also a hint of anger in Lu Yingxue's tone.
She was humiliated at the housewarming party and now she is being beaten and scolded by her own aunt.
Who the hell is Lu Yutong!
He is nothing but a coward who escapes reality.
Lu Yutong looked at Lu Yingxue's hateful face and said, "When you were doing all these evil things, didn't you ever think that I would come back? The bankruptcy of the Xiang family is indeed the retribution for Xiang Hai's evil deeds! But it is also because of your Lu family's connivance and taking advantage of him. My children are not very good, but after all, I carried them for ten months and gave birth to them."
Lu Yingxue retorted, "Yes, your son is in jail, and your daughter has fallen into depravity. If it weren't for me, their fate would be even more tragic."
"Lu Yingxue, I'm not here to beat around the bush with you."
Lu Yutong questioned, "I know it was you who set Mingzhu up with Zhao Chang. It was your Lu family who used her as a pawn. So now tell me, where is Mingzhu?"
"How would I know where she was hanging out?"
Lu Yingxue simply announced that she forgave Xiang Mingzhu for scratching her face and that the Lu family would discipline her. But after that, there was no further news of Xiang Mingzhu.
"Don't play dumb."
"Aunt, I really don't know where Mingzhu has gone. Look at my face, it's all thanks to her. Why would I care about her? I wish she would die on her own. Who knows, she might have found some sponsor to survive."
Lu Yingxue walked to the coffee table, poured herself a glass of warm water and started drinking.
"You really don't want to hand over the person?" There was a hint of coldness in Lu Yutong's eyes.
"I have no one here, how can I pay it? How can I be held responsible for my aunt's biological daughter? Her own mother abandoned her daughter in the country without caring about her. As her cousin, do I have to be Xiang Mingzhu's mother?"
Lu Yingxue put down the teacup without any respect for Lu Yutong.
She's had enough!
Why does everyone want to go against her?
Lu Yutong took a deep breath, gradually calming down, and said, "I'll only give you one day. If you don't find Mingzhu, I will make what happened back then public. I don't think your Lu family would want to see that day."
What happened back then?
Lu Yingxue's heart sank.
It's about the relationship between my father and Cheng Han, as well as the hidden story of the needle testing conference that year.
"Aunt, don't threaten me with this kind of thing. How can you explain what happened back then with just your mouth? You don't have any evidence!"
"I have no evidence, but..."
Lu Yutong raised the corners of his mouth in a mocking smile, "Your father must not have told you, you..."
"Yutong!"
Before Lu Yutong could finish her words, she heard a loud shout from outside the door.
Lu Bannong rushed back.
Lu Yutong looked at him mockingly for a long time and said, "Brother, you are old."
"Yutong, what are you planning to do when you return to China this time..." Lu Bannong was used to disguising himself, and in front of many people he appeared to be a harmless, good-natured person.
Lu Yutong knew best how cold-blooded this person was.
It was he who had personally sent her to Xiang Hai's bed, and she was forced to marry into the Xiang family. She was forced by Xiang Hai to bear children continuously.
This broken body can't last many more years.
"Don't try to get close to me." Lu Yutong looked at him expressionlessly, hatred in her eyes. "I returned to China to take Mingzhu away. If you agree to my conditions, I will keep everything that happened back then a secret! Including..."
She glanced at Lu Yingxue.
Lu Yingxue had an inexplicable feeling in her heart.
Lu Bannong soothed her, "Okay. Yingxue, go and bring Mingzhu back. Remember to tell her to stop giving up on herself and dress up nicely to meet her mother. Didn't she always talk about missing her mother?"
This was a reminder for Lu Yingxue to dress Xiang Mingzhu up nicely.
Xiang Mingzhu has been locked in the basement. Lu Yingxue wanted to prepare a prescription and tested it on her without any regard for the sisterly relationship.
Lu Yingxue nodded, glanced at Lu Yutong out of the corner of her eye, and said, "Okay, Father. I'll go get Mingzhu out now. She should be happy to see her mother."
After this period of training, Xiang Mingzhu should know what he should and should not say.
Lu Yingxue sneered and turned to walk around the corner.
But she was cautious and stood in the corner for a while.
There is a secret between my aunt and my father, and this secret is about her.
Lu Bannong retracted his gaze, poured Lu Yutong a cup of tea, and said, "Yutong, I was sorry for what happened back then. But for the Lu family to develop, we must rely on Xiang Hai. He said he fell in love with you at first sight, and I thought you would fall in love with each other over time. I didn't expect... I formally apologize to you."
Lu Yutong raised his hand and clapped.
The scalding hot tea spilled onto the ground with a clanging sound.
"If you had told me this kind of nonsense back then, I might have believed it. Is an apology this late still any use?" Lu Yutong's eyes flushed slightly. "I kept it a secret from you for years because you're my biological brother. Don't worry, since I didn't tell you then, I'm even less likely to bring up the past now."
Lu Yutong took a breath and said, "I only have one condition, take Mingzhu away."
"Okay, I promise you everything."
Lu Yutong sneered, "Because she's no longer useful? That's why you agreed so readily? You used the same tactics on me back then, and now you're using them on my daughter. Lu Bannong, you're truly not a human being."
"Yutong, I'm doing this for the development of our family. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have any future if you married that poor boy from the Shen family."
"Are you trying to remind me that you killed Shen Mo? Back then, I shouldn't have..."
Lu Yutong paused. "I am guilty too, and I should repent for the rest of my life. I have the same filthy blood as you, and I have been your accomplice for decades. My hands are already stained with blood, and I can never wash them clean."
She laughed at herself, "But you've raised Lu Yingxue so well! She's just an illegitimate daughter!"
Lu Yingxue, who was standing at the corner, had a stiff expression.
Is she an illegitimate daughter?
