Mr. Lu understood that it was the anger of those in power who had been deceived and fooled.
He messed with the nurse, the doctor, and the hospital, but he still hadn't gotten over his anger.
The sky was too high for him to reach, so he set his sights on the Xie family.
He only felt a sense of satisfaction when he thought about how the people in the mountains were being played, unable to live or die.
As for Xie Zhouyi, he also treated people like Lu Zhiwei's toys.
Lost in thought, Mr. Lu's face twisted with embarrassment as he considered those thoughts.
When Lu Zhiwei saw this, he quickly turned away and dared not look again.
He had seen his father with that expression once before, when he drugged Xie Zhouyi and threw him into a group of men.
He initially thought his father was avenging him, but later realized that the man was a pervert.
If his biological father is a pervert, how could he possibly be a good person?
After that, he found a lot of fun in being a bad guy, and became more and more deeply involved...
Thinking about what he had done, Lu Zhiwei felt a sudden, inexplicable fear rise in his heart.
Looking at the investigation team gathered in the office, he nervously ran to the restroom to check Xie Zhouyi's live stream to see what was going on.
When he opened his phone, he saw a scene that terrified him: Lu Xiyuan was slowly explaining her relationship with Xie Zhouyi and the Lu family.
"No—" He fearfully threw his phone into the trash can, as if that would stop everything from happening.
The reason they dared to let the two of them appear on the show was simply because they knew Xie Zhouyi and Lu Xiyuan had no resources left to use.
They even controlled what was broadcast on the show, but they never expected the adoptive father to have so much power that he overturned the gambling table and started a new game.
Lu Zhiwei walked in front of the mirror in a panic, staring at his reflection, which had lost its former vigor in just half a day.
His eyes were constantly bloodshot and red, and he couldn't help but wonder if his good days were coming to an end.
Cangyun Mountain
Lu Xiyuan was slowly recounting her entanglement with the Lu family in front of the camera, while Xie Zhouyi sat beside her, holding her hand. When she couldn't express herself clearly, he would fill in the gaps.
The two spoke simply and objectively, explaining the whole story clearly from beginning to end.
It turns out that the Lu family business was founded by Lu Xiyuan's parents, and she is the true heir of the Lu family business.
Unfortunately, when she was 9 years old, her parents and grandparents encountered a terrorist organization while traveling abroad and both died.
As a young girl, she moved into her uncle's house with her parents' inheritance. At that time, she was not in charge of the Lu family's business, so her uncle temporarily exercised all the rights on her behalf.
Years have passed, and not only has she not inherited the estate, but the Lu family business has also changed hands.
When she first arrived at her uncle's house, having lost so many relatives, Lu Xiyuan would wake up crying every night.
It was during this time that Xie Zhouyi, who was four years older than her, stayed by her side at all times, and their brother-sister relationship deepened day by day.
Three years later, Xie Zhouyi's true identity was revealed, and his cousins became relatives with no blood relation. The one who was originally adrift and helpless became two.
Just as they were feeling anxious, their father took them abroad. Far from the reach of the emperor, 16-year-old Xie Zhouyi and 12-year-old Lu Xiyuan became the playthings of the Lu family.
The Lu family would casually throw the two into the horrific red-light district, or lock them up in a mental hospital.
For five or six years, these two poor children became each other's only source of light.
When they broke down, they cried in each other's arms; when they were in despair, they comforted each other... Their only hope was that Lu Xiyuan could take back what belonged to her and then take revenge.
Unfortunately, when Xie Zhouyi was 22 years old, Lu's father would take out his frustrations on him.
The heartless father fed him drugs and then dumped him on several men.
Upon learning this, Lu Xiyuan rushed over and knelt down to beg her father, promising to hand over all of Lu's shares.
After her persistent pleading, Mr. Lu finally agreed.
But he disgustingly locked the two siblings, who had supported each other, up together.
The two were photographed under the influence of drugs. The Lu family used these photos to repeatedly plunge them into an endless abyss.
Self-blame, self-abandonment... For a long time, they were unable to face each other, but reality repeatedly bound them together.
Xie Zhouyi had considered suicide several times, but seeing Lu Xiyuan's lonely figure, he persevered.
They went to participate in "Dear Parents" hoping to take the opportunity to expose Lu's father's evil deeds.
Unfortunately, they failed in their previous life. Xie Zhouyi and Xie Ming's failed relationship and the online abuse made them realize that there was no hope left.
The two decided to take a desperate gamble and prepare to expose Lu's father by dying themselves.
So the two of them agreed to commit suicide together, and even wrote their grievances all over the house in red paint.
But they didn't know that the show was a trap set by the Lu family from the very beginning, and everything they did was in vain.
Even the scene where Xie Ming saw Xie Zhouyi commit suicide had been altered, so in his previous life he had no idea that a girl had left with Xie Zhouyi.
When Lu Xiyuan finished speaking in front of the camera, she was already sobbing uncontrollably. Xie Zhouyi could only silently hug her and gently pat her back.
Everyone present felt heartbroken watching this, and they understood the ambiguous atmosphere between them that was like that of a couple but not quite.
"Lu Zhiwei's dad is such a scoundrel, waaaah! Poor Yuanyuan and Zhouyi!"
The first person in the production crew to cry was a young makeup artist.
"Damn it! What kind of mess is this?!"
The cameraman also raised his hand to wipe away his tears.
The internet exploded with discussion.
#No way! No way! Is the Lu family really that twisted? Then the things I bought weren't produced using some kind of weird method, were they?#
#Oh my god! Don't tell me! I feel like throwing up, I need to return it right now!#
