Lu Huaijiao isn't stupid.
I didn't say it before because I felt that as a family, money didn't matter and we didn't need to be so particular about it.
But after learning what Lu Zhengde had done, Lu Huaijiao no longer wanted to pretend things were peaceful. No matter how genuine Lu Zhengde's kindness towards her was, it couldn't outweigh the harm he had done to her mother.
In his life, what Lu Zhengde hated most was being called a good-for-nothing live-in son-in-law. Although Lu Huaijiao's words did not explicitly call him a live-in son-in-law, he misunderstood them as meaning that.
"Fine, fine, very fine. All these years of raising and educating you, and in the end, you think I'm after the money your grandmother left you? Fine, fine."
Lu Zhengde said "good" several times, and looked utterly despondent.
Those who don't know the situation might think he was deeply hurt.
But Lu Huaijiao didn't even look at him.
Gu Changzheng and Shu Aiguo, who were standing to the side, ignored him completely.
Qin Lan never expected that the tide had turned and her good days hadn't even lasted a few days before Lu Huaijiao came back and ruined them. She was indignant; she was a thousand times indignant.
Seeing that Lu Huaijiao was still standing there as if nothing had happened, Qin Lan shouted loudly.
"Officers, officers, you arrested us but why didn't you arrest that bitch Lu Huaijiao? She smashed up our house; this is burglary! Why didn't you arrest her?"
Having already broken off relations, Qin Lan no longer pretended to be friendly.
The way they addressed Lu Huaijiao was anything but polite.
Lu Huaijiao clicked her tongue, not angry at Qin Lan's barking, but Shu Aiguo and Gu Changzheng next to her turned pale at Qin Lan's words.
Gu Changzheng was about to speak when Old Master Shu spoke first.
"Qin Yanhua, you vicious and stupid woman, do you really think this place belongs to Lu Zhengde? You must be dreaming! The real owner of this house is Lu Huaijiao. Every blade of grass, every brick and tile here belongs to her."
In other words, even if Lu Huaijiao demolishes this place, it would be legal.
Qin Lan was shocked by this turn of events, and her face turned pale instantly.
"You're talking nonsense! How could that be? How could this be?"
She could never have imagined that the house belonged to Lu Huaijiao, not Lu Zhengde.
If this house belongs to Lu Huaijiao, then what is the point of her enduring so many years of hardship and bearing children for Lu Zhengde?
Qin Lan was going crazy.
"Zhengde, Zhengde, tell me, tell me, whose house is this? Whose house is this?"
She lunged at Lu Zhengde, shaking his shoulders and screaming hysterically.
Lu Zhengde pursed his lips, not answering Qin Lan's question.
But his silence was tantamount to acquiescence.
Qin Lan was utterly despondent, feeling that she had given half her youth, only to end up with nothing but a roof over her head. What had she sacrificed all of this for?
Yes, although Qin Lan said she loved Lu Zhengde, loved his refined and elegant demeanor, and his handsome appearance, she was also realistic and wanted to live a good material life, better than others.
Lu Huaiyu, on the other hand, also understood what Shu Aiguo was saying.
He went berserk when told that the beautiful, clean house wasn't his, but a money-losing proposition. He got up from the side and went to hit Lu Huaijiao again.
However, just as he got close, Gu Changzheng dislocated his other arm as well.
Lu Huaiyu cried out for his parents and collapsed to the ground, sobbing loudly.
Qin Lan tried to come forward, but the police held her down and didn't give her a chance to break free.
Lu Huaijiao stood to the side, arms crossed, glancing with a smile at Lu Huaiyu, who was rolling on the ground in distress. She thought of the smug look on Lu Huaiyu's face when she died in her previous life.
She chuckled.
"Lu Huaiyu, you're just an illegitimate child born out of wedlock to a nanny with no official status, and you actually dream of rising to prominence and integrating into Shanghai's high society?"
"Don't you know that the blood flowing in your veins was destined to be filthy from the moment you were born, and that you would spend your whole life hiding in dark corners, living like a stinking rat?"
Her words were not so much directed at Lu Huaiyu in front of her, but rather at the Lu Huaiyu of her past life who had attempted to seize her property and then use her power to climb into Shanghai's high society.
In her eyes, neither Lu Huaiyu nor Qin Lan were worth mentioning, just like trash.
This is why she fell for 998's scam and wanted to go back for revenge.
What's the point of killing two incompetent idiots in this life? The real revenge is to go back to your past life, crawl out of your coffin, smash their heads, and shatter their dreams.
That was the most satisfying revenge in Lu Huaijiao's imagination.
Of course, we can't go back to the way things are right now. We should take care of the people in this life so they won't cause trouble for us later.
Lu Zhengde and Qin Lan's faces turned pale as Lu Huaijiao spoke. Lu Huaiyu didn't understand what she was saying, but he knew that Lu Huaijiao had called him a stinky rat, and he tried to retort.
Lu Huaijiao picked up the bicycle handlebars that she hadn't been able to put in Lu Huaiyu's mouth before and stuffed them into Lu Huaiyu's mouth.
"Trash should look like trash."
Lu Huaiyu's broken tooth was already hurting, and when he shoved the handlebar into it, his tooth almost broke completely.
Lu Huaijiao ignored him and turned to Shu Aiguo to confirm whether the house was really hers.
Shu Aiguo nodded.
“This house is in your mother’s name, and your mother made a will that all her belongings are to be inherited by you.”
