Lin Yusheng followed Lu Zechuan downstairs, and Lu Zechuan extended an invitation first, "Let me show you around, as a way of apologizing to you on behalf of my mother."
"No need, I have something to do and it's really inconvenient. Could you have someone take me home first?"
"It's really unfortunate, I just sent the driver out to buy something, and he won't be back for a while. Why don't you just wander around here, I'll show you around," Lu Zechuan said with an embarrassed smile before suggesting again.
Lin Yusheng said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Young Master Lu."
"Just call me Zechuan."
Lin Yusheng smiled but didn't say anything.
When Madam Lu suddenly summoned her and inexplicably said a lot about Lu Zhengye, she had a feeling that something even worse was about to happen.
I should have been more careful and driven myself.
The Lu family truly lives up to its reputation as a century-old family in Lucheng, with a rich and profound heritage.
The Lu residence covers a vast area and is exquisitely decorated. Various antique pavilions and cobblestone paths complement each other, the lake water is clear, and lotus flowers are in full bloom.
Lu Zechuan tried to start a conversation by asking, "Miss Lin, are you planning to enter the entertainment industry?"
Lin Yusheng's perfunctory smile faded. "Mrs. Lu has already spoken to me about this matter, and I have refused. Please don't put me in a difficult position, Young Master Lu."
“I didn’t mean that. You’ve misunderstood. My mother has worried a lot about me, so she might not have said the right thing. Please don’t take it to heart.”
No, not at all.
The two remained silent.
Lin Yusheng walked alone, silently appreciating the surrounding scenery, completely ignoring Lu Zechuan.
After hearing Xie Yuqiong's words, Lin Yusheng was afraid of Lu Zheng's ambition, but she was even more unwilling to cooperate with Xie Yuqiong, Lu Zechuan and others.
She didn't like them, just on instinct.
Also, after spending time with him several times, she felt that Lu Zhengye was more reliable than them.
Lin Yusheng glanced at Lu Zechuan without showing any emotion. He was handsome, and although his features were not as stunning and deep as Lu Zhengye's, he was still a rare good-looking guy.
No wonder Deng Xingwen set her sights on him.
She paid too little attention to things in her previous life and doesn't remember whether Deng Xingwen had seduced him or not.
Unbeknownst to them, Lin Yusheng and Lu Zechuan had arrived at a secluded place.
The architecture there is more ancient.
Lin Yusheng stopped in her tracks. "Young Master, let's go back."
"Okay, let's go through that place ahead and go around to the other side to get back, it's closer."
Lin Yusheng did not refute, nodded, and walked ahead first.
A gentle breeze blew by, and Lin Yusheng smelled a bloody odor.
Her heart clenched, and she became alert, her pace quickening unconsciously.
Soon, she saw a place that resembled an ancestral hall, where many memorial tablets were placed amidst the desolate fallen leaves.
Lin Yusheng took another look out of curiosity, and saw a tall figure kneeling in front of the ancestral hall, covered in blood, and the smell of blood was coming from there.
When Lin Yusheng saw the person's face clearly, her pupils dilated. "Lu Zhengye."
She murmured to herself.
This sound drew Lu Zhengye's attention. He slowly raised his head, his gaze turning cold and violent, like that of a demon from hell.
Lin Yusheng suddenly remembered what Xie Yuqiong had said and took a step back in fear.
The next second, her back slammed into a wall of flesh.
It was Lu Zechuan, his voice still gentle, "That's my second brother, he made a mistake and was punished by family rules."
Lin Yusheng suddenly realized something, and a chill ran up from the soles of her feet. She understood that Lu Zechuan had deliberately brought her here.
He was pressuring her, forcing her to break up with Lu Zhengye.
Last night, she and Lu Zhengye got into a conflict with someone. Today, he is being punished here, while she has been invited here as a guest, walking and chatting with the person he dislikes.
When Lin Yusheng looked at Lu Zechuan's face again, she felt utterly disgusted.
She took a step forward, wanting to run to Lu Zhengye's side, but the next second her arm was grabbed.
Lu Zechuan still had a smile on his face. "Miss Lin, it's not appropriate for you to go into the ancestral hall of your family."
Lin Yusheng shouted angrily, "Lu Zechuan, you did this on purpose!"
"My mother invited you to visit, naturally hoping to foster our relationship. I've gone to great lengths for you simply because I like you."
Lu Zechuan's words were deliberately exaggerated, making Lin Yusheng tremble with anger.
Taking the opportunity, Lu Zechuan put his arm around Lin Yusheng's shoulder and led her away from Lu Zhengye's sight.
Lin Yusheng couldn't struggle and was led away by Lu Zechuan for a distance.
Once Lu Zechuan had released some of his strength, Lin Yusheng immediately broke free.
She glared angrily at Lu Zechuan, "I have no grudge against you, why would you do this to me?"
Lu Zhengchuan smiled and said matter-of-factly, "Because I like you."
"Then I can tell you clearly, it's impossible for us." Lin Yusheng was furious.
Lu Zechuan stopped laughing, and his gaze turned somewhat cold.
"Impossible? Then it's possible for you and that bastard to be together, right?"
He stepped forward and suddenly grabbed Lin Yusheng's shoulder tightly. "I wanted to make you fall in love with me gradually, but what did you do? You went to that bastard's bed in the blink of an eye."
Lin Yusheng was surprised that he knew about this.
But she didn't feel that she had done anything wrong to Lu Zhengye by sleeping with him.
Lin Yusheng forcefully broke free from Lu Zechuan's hand and said, "Lu Zhengye and I are both unmarried and have no boyfriends or girlfriends. What happens between us is our business and has nothing to do with you."
"Hmph, so this is none of my business, Lin Yusheng. One day, I'll make you beg me to sleep with you."
Lin Yusheng's pupils dilated, filled with raging anger. Without hesitation, she slapped him and then turned and left.
Lin Yusheng regretted it immediately after hitting him; after all, he was the eldest young master of the Lu family.
Today, Lu Zechuan gave Lin Yusheng a completely different feeling from his previous life. He seemed to have become a different person, like a pervert, and had lost the gentle and refined feeling of his previous life.
Lin Yusheng felt that the Lu Zechuan she remembered from her previous life was a lie, and this was his true face.
In this life, she became entangled with Lu Zhengye, and something must have triggered him, causing him to reveal his true colors.
Lin Yusheng became increasingly anxious. How did he find out about her and Lu Zhengye?
Could it be that he's having an affair with Deng Xingwen? Lin Yusheng suddenly realized the truth, and her heart sank to the bottom.
She had always had a question: the Deng family was not as wealthy as the Lin family, so how did he manage to bring down the Lin family step by step?
Looking back now, if the Deng family had indeed gotten close to Lu Zechuan, then everything would have made sense.
But why would Lu Zechuan do this? Is it just because he couldn't have the love he wanted?
Thinking of this, Lin Yusheng was startled. She turned around abruptly and, seeing that Lu Zechuan had not followed, quickened her pace and walked out.
The Lu residence was built halfway up the mountain, and Lin Yusheng, wearing high heels, walked all the way to the bottom of the mountain before she could hail a taxi.
