In the dark and damp basement, a girl was lying on the ground in the corner. Her dress was stained with blood and its original color could no longer be seen. She curled up her body slightly, as if this could relieve the pain in her body.
Tap, tap, tap, the sound of high heels was heard. The girl's trembling body slowly raised her head, and what came into her eyes was a pair of limited edition red high heels. She chuckled and closed her eyes.
Cheng Suyu, she treated her as her best friend. When she couldn't afford food or a place to live, she brought her home and provided her with high-quality living conditions. In the end, she actually raised a wolf.
"Lu Nanying, you're still so arrogant even when you're about to die. Do you still think you're the high and mighty eldest daughter of the Lu family?" Cheng Suyu's face twisted, her eyes glaring fiercely at the person on the ground. Why was she born noble? Why were all the people so devoted to her? Why was it that the things she, Lu Nanying, so easily gave away were things Cheng Suyu couldn't even get with her hard work?
Lu Nanying remained silent, not knowing whether it was because her body was in so much pain or because she didn't want to pay attention to the disgusting person in front of her.
Cheng Suyu lowered her head and fiddled with her newly done nails. Suddenly she smiled and said, "Are you waiting for your two brothers to come and save you, or for Ji Chengzhou who is completely devoted to you?"
Seeing that Lu Nanying still didn't say anything, she squatted down and pinched Lu Nanying's cheeks hard with her hands, forcing her to look at her.
"You don't have to wait for any of them, because you won't be able to wait any longer. I haven't told you yet, but your parents were in a car accident on their way to find you and died on the spot. And your eldest brother, after hearing that you were missing, he left the team without permission. I heard that the plane he was on crashed and was probably burned to ashes. As for your second brother, he'll be in jail for the rest of his life for tax evasion. Oh, and that prince of the Ji family, Ji Chengzhou, who loved you dearly, I heard he was looking for you like crazy. I had someone plant a bomb in his car, and it should have exploded by now. Hahahahaha."
The crazy laughter sounded particularly harsh in the dark basement. Cheng Suyu pushed Lu Nanying away and leaned over to say in her ear, "If I can't get it, I will destroy it."
Yes, Cheng Suyu likes Ji Chengzhou, so she has been creating opportunities for them. Even though Ji Chengzhou has rejected her many times, and even though they have said many times that Cheng Suyu is not a good person, she still believes in her.
Lu Nanying raised his head slightly, looking at Cheng Suyu with a pair of eyes red enough to bleed. Because he hadn't eaten or spoken for a long time, his voice was extremely hoarse: "Cheng Suyu, you will get retribution."
Tears rolled down her pale cheeks and she bit her lips. Even though she didn't cry out loud, you could tell how much pain she was in.
The rusty iron door of the basement was pushed open, and someone hurried in with a stern voice: "Yu'er, why waste time talking to her? Get rid of her quickly. Ji Chengzhou's people are almost here."
Hearing the voice, Lu Nanying looked up and looked at the person who came with hatred in her eyes. Yang Yunze, the man she was willing to marry regardless of everything and even break up with her entire family, was now in cahoots with her best friend to kill her family and Ji Chengzhou, who loved her so much.
"Yang Yunze, have you been using me all this time?" Lu Nanying's voice was cold and without a trace of warmth.
Yang Yunze took out a dagger, walked over to Lu Nanying, helped her up from the ground, raised his hand and touched her face: "Nanying, if you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for being too proud. You have been reluctant to let me have you. Your parents and brother have been reluctant to agree to our marriage. For the sake of your Lu family's property and for Yu'er to become a superior person, you think I would humble myself in front of your parents for a good-for-nothing young lady like you. Now, Yu'er is pregnant, and you, Nanying, only if you die, as your fiancé, the Lu family will definitely be mine."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "puff" sound. Lu Nanying's eyes widened and he looked down to see the knife in Yang Yunze's hand stuck in his chest.
The man let go of her hand, and Lu Nanying fell to the ground, trembling. She stared at the man and woman in front of her with wide eyes. Stubbornly, she didn't shed a single tear. She, Lu Nanying, was the eldest daughter of the Lu family, one of the four major families in Beijing. She would never bow to them, and she couldn't bring shame to the Lu family.
Suddenly, the iron gate was kicked open with force. Cheng Suyu screamed in fright, and the two were immediately pinned to the ground. Yang Yunze was severely beaten while struggling, and lay on the ground unable to move.
Lu Nanying's eyes lost focus as she stared ahead, as if expecting something. Her tall figure stumbled as she ran over. Seeing who was coming, Lu Nanying couldn't hold back her tears any longer, murmuring the person's name: "Ji Chengzhou"
The sound was so quiet that people around me couldn't hear it at all.
The man knelt on the ground, looking at the lifeless girl covered in blood with a knife stuck in her chest. His whole body was shaking, his eyes were out of control, and he let out painful sobs. He stretched out his hand but didn't dare to touch her, for he was afraid that if he touched her, the girl would be shattered into pieces.
Lu Nanying stretched out her hand to Ji Chengzhou with all her strength. The man's trembling hand carefully grasped the girl's bruised little hand. He leaned over and gently held the girl, who was about to fall apart, in his arms. He raised his hand and wiped her tears: "Baby, don't be afraid, I will take you home."
"Ji Chengzhou, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I killed my parents and my brother. It's all my fault." As Lu Nanying spoke, blood kept gushing out of her mouth. Ji Chengzhou tried his best to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, but he couldn't stop it.
At this moment, this living devil who was feared by everyone in Beijing was crying like a child while holding his beloved girl.
He could no longer control his tears and burst into tears. The group of subordinates following him lowered their heads one after another. They knew that in the heart of their master, the eldest daughter of the Lu family was more important than his life.
"Baby, if you don't like me, I won't appear in front of you again. As long as you are well, I will agree to anything you want."
He knew he was about to lose her. The girl raised her hand, gently stroked the corner of the man's eyes, and whispered softly: "Brother Chengzhou, if there is an afterlife, I will love you instead, and I will definitely love you well."
Ji Chengzhou looked at the lifeless girl in his arms, her eyes tightly closed. He hugged her tightly and burst into tears. His heart-wrenching sobs were accompanied by the words: "Baby, don't leave me alone."
