"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Zhengye lifted her chin with his finger and asked with a stern face.
Lin Yusheng knew he was scared.
She smiled, gave him a quick kiss on the lips, and explained, "I was just saying."
"I can't say, even if I can't."
Lu Zhengye tightened his grip on her body, wishing he could meld her into his very bones and flesh.
Lin Yusheng did not expect Lu Zhengye to have such a big reaction.
"I have committed many evils, and even if I die, I will die first. If anyone dares to hurt you, I will make them pay the price they deserve, and it will never end."
Lu Zhengye swore an oath, word by word.
Lin Yusheng felt a burning sensation in her chest, but she was also a little angry. She clenched her fist and punched Lu Zhengye in the chest.
She snapped, "Don't you understand the saying 'trouble comes from the mouth'? How can you curse yourself like that?"
Lu Zhengye grasped her wrist. "I'm serious."
Lin Yusheng's eyes welled up with tears, and she shed a tear, "Aye, I'm sorry."
"Why are you suddenly apologizing?" Lu Zhengye chuckled helplessly.
Lin Yusheng thought to herself: I'm sorry for how much I looked down on you in my past life and for hurting you.
She shook her head. She would make up for the mistakes of her past life twice over in this one. Bringing up her past life now was simply absurd.
Having been reborn for so long, she no longer knows whether her so-called past life was just a dream.

A month later, the news that "The Resurrected Bone" was about to be released became a trending topic.
After its release, it frequently topped the trending searches with a box office of over 1 billion yuan in three days, becoming the highest-grossing blockbuster film in the past five years.
Moreover, it still has a lot of room for growth.
Lin Yusheng's name became widely known, and the two TV series and one movie she starred in all achieved great success.
"Jianghu Order" and "Resurrection Bone" have repeatedly broken records and are expected to become masterpieces.
Netizens commented: "I don't hate people who get cast by paying for their own work; I hate people who have no acting skills but still try to squeeze into the entertainment industry."
There were many promotional events for "The Resurrected Bones", and Lin Yusheng and Gu Yanting attended every single one.
While many people ship the Gu Panshengzi couple, some have noticed that every time Lin Yusheng leaves work late, a Rolls-Royce is parked outside waiting for her.
Some netizens discovered that it was Lu Zhengye's other car.
None of the three parties responded to the fans' speculations.
Although Lu Zhengye is not in the entertainment industry, his popularity is no less than that of Lin Yusheng and Gu Yanting.
With his own abilities and the strength of his family, he almost led the Lu family to even greater heights.
Many of the Lu family's businesses were entrusted to him for management, and many people assumed that he would be the future heir of the Lu family.
On Lu Zheng's birthday, the banquet was held at Lu's residence.
This was the first time the Lu family had ever held a birthday banquet for Lu Zhengye.
Almost everyone of importance in Lucheng came. Many of them were not only showing respect to the Lu family, but also trying to curry favor with Lu Zhengye.
Those who were able to cooperate with Lu Zhengye are now making a lot of money.
The Lu family remains the most powerful force, but the person most often mentioned has changed from Lu Jing and Lu Jiwen to Lu Zhengye.
Everyone in the Lin family will attend this birthday banquet, even if they don't give the Lu family any face, they can't resist their daughter's persistent pleading.
As the departure date approached, Lin Yusheng was still struggling with which dress to wear.
The two sets of gifts in front of me are completely different in style.
One outfit was a white, sheer, rhinestone-embellished fishtail dress, and the other was a rose-red long dress.
Jiang Yuanshuang came up to check on her daughter's condition.
Lin Yusheng saw her mother as if she had seen a savior. She ran over and grabbed her mother's arm. "Mom, please give me some advice. Which outfit should I wear?"
Jiang Yuanshuang smiled helplessly, "Your father was absolutely right when he said that daughters are like birds that cannot stay at home once they grow up."
"What? All I asked was for you to help me pick out a gift, how did it get involved in this kind of thing?" Lin Yusheng pouted.
"Did Mom say something wrong? You weren't always so conflicted before."
Lin Yusheng has a versatile appearance and temperament, and can pull off many styles. She is not keen on attending banquets, so she is very casual about dresses.
But today, she had started preparing two days in advance.
I'm still hesitating.
Lin Yusheng felt embarrassed and tried to cover it up, saying, "I just really liked both dresses, that's why I was hesitant. It's not like what you're thinking."
"Alright then." Jiang Yuanshuang carefully looked at the two dresses and Lin Yusheng's makeup, and then said, "Wear the white one. Your makeup today is on the gentler side, and the red one would look a bit out of place."
"good."
Lin Yusheng took off her dress to change.
After coming out, she looked at herself in the mirror for a long time, becoming more and more satisfied with herself.
Jiang Yuanshuang couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's very beautiful. Lu Zhengye will definitely not be able to take his eyes off it."
"Mom, what are you saying? I didn't wear it for him."
That's what she said, but Lin Yusheng's face had already quietly turned red.
“No need to hide it anymore. I’m your mother. Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? Lu Zhengye has reached this position now, and no one dares to look down on him. Your father and I will no longer object to you two being together.”
Lin Yusheng was pleasantly surprised, yet it was also within her expectations.
She rushed over and hugged her mother, saying gratefully, "Thank you, Mom, and thank you, Dad."
"What's there to thank me for? Do you think your parents wouldn't want you to be happy?"
Lin Yusheng was moved to tears, but at the same time, she felt very uncomfortable.
Even though Lu Zhengye is now exceptionally capable and no one dares to bring up his status as an illegitimate child openly, there will definitely still be gossip behind his back. He will never be able to escape the constraints of being an illegitimate child for the rest of his life.
Now, Lin Yusheng only hopes that Lu Zhengye will quickly become stronger, reveal the truth to the public, and let Lu Jiwen receive the punishment he deserves.
She can't tell her mother the truth yet. All she can say is, "Mom, Aye is a good person. I've never felt that he's not good enough for me. In fact, the way he treats me makes me feel like I'm not good enough for him."
Jiang Yuanshuang was very surprised that her daughter would say such a thing.
After all, she was pampered by her family growing up, and even if she didn't have a princess complex, she still had her own pride and self-confidence.
Jiang Yuanshuang also began to wonder about Lu Zhengye. Was he really as good as Shengsheng said, or had he bewitched her daughter?
...
The banquet hall of the Lu residence was luxurious and magnificent, and it was packed with prominent figures in the business world.
The Lu family has not arrived yet.
Although they hosted the banquet, no one in the entire city was qualified to let them come out and greet the guests.
When Lin Yusheng appeared arm in arm with her mother, she became the focus of attention.
She is undoubtedly as beautiful as ever, but her acting career has given her a unique charm.
She can bring out twelve percent of her beauty.
