Chapter 412 Is it a human or a ghost?
Lu Xiang's cursed and hateful look before his death suddenly woke Lu Mingzhu up.
She lay on the bed, gasping for breath because of the final horror in her dream. Lu Xiang's last look was like a pair of bony claws stretched out from a ghost in hell, tightly strangling her throat.
How could I...have such a dream?
If it weren’t for Lu Xiang, this would have been the most beautiful dream Lu Mingzhu had ever had.
Everything in her dream was the life she should have lived, with everyone loving her. But why was the reality the exact opposite?
The pain in her body was a constant reminder of everything that had happened to her.
Lu Mingzhu's heart was suddenly filled with resentment and unwillingness.
Suddenly, there were light footsteps at the door. Lu Mingzhu turned her head and saw a shadow reflected on the door. She was so scared that her pupils suddenly shrank and her face was full of fear.
"Who...who's outside?"
She was so scared that her teeth were chattering and her voice was trembling.
Squeak——
The door was pushed open, but even with the moonlight shining outside, Lu Mingzhu still couldn't see clearly who was standing at the door, but her figure looked very familiar.
"Speak up, who are you?" Lu Mingzhu shouted loudly, as if only the louder the voice could cover up the panic in her heart: "Liu Anyao, is that you?"
The only person who could come to the manor at this time was a woman with a familiar figure to her. Apart from Liu Anyao, Lu Mingzhu did not think of anyone else.
"Heh..." A low laugh sounded, and then Lu Mingzhu heard her say, "I haven't seen you for so many days, Fourth Sister, don't you even recognize me?"
A familiar voice rang in Lu Mingzhu's ears, like a muffled thunder. She seemed to hear Lu Xiang's weeping and angry cry in her dream again.
“Ah…Ahhh…Are you a human or a ghost?”
She had just dreamed of Lu Xiang's miserable death, and Lu Mingzhu saw her the next moment, frightening her to death.
A cool breeze was blowing outside, and the autumn night was even chillier. The wind blew into the house, waking up Lu Mingzhu, who was already feeling cold and in pain.
Lu Xiang walked into the house slowly.
Yun Zhai behind him quickly took out the fire starter from his body and lit the candle. Soon the dark room was filled with some light.
"What are you talking about, Fourth Sister? You have been beaten so many times and you are still alive and well. How can I be a ghost?"
As the candlelight flickered, the smile on Lu Xiang's lips gave Lu Mingzhu a creepy feeling.
"Lu Xiang, what are you doing here?" Lu Mingzhu shouted loudly. In her excitement, she pulled the wound on her body and grimaced in pain.
Lu Xiang sat down on the chair and looked at Lu Mingzhu with a half-smile: "Of course I'm here to add insult to injury and to make fun of you."
Lu Mingzhu almost died of anger after hearing this: "..."
Could you be more direct?
"Go away, I don't want to see you." Lu Mingzhu grabbed the pillow beside her and threw it at Lu Xiang.
Yun Zha reached out and firmly grabbed the pillow that was about to be thrown at Lu Xiang.
Lu Xiang did not get angry but laughed instead. Looking at the miserable and embarrassed Lu Mingzhu in front of him, his face was full of satisfaction.
"Why are you in such a hurry? We haven't seen each other for so long, don't you miss me? I miss you all the time, and I hate you so much that I want to peel off your skin, pull out your tendons, and scatter your bones to ashes."
As Lu Xiang spoke, the expression on his face suddenly became ferocious.
Lu Mingzhu was suddenly startled, and a chill suddenly ran down her feet.
"Bring it in." Lu Xiang suddenly said.
Then Ah Man and Wu Yue came in carrying a stove. There was a pot on the stove, but it was unclear what was inside. Lu Mingzhu immediately had a bad feeling.
"Yunzha, Wuyue, you go out first." Lu Xiang said softly.
"Miss, I won't leave." Yun Zha said.
Wu Yue nodded, agreeing with Yun Zha’s attitude.
Before they came, they knew what the lady wanted to do. The lady asked them to leave at this time because she was afraid that they could not bear it.
There is nothing that is too much to bear. If you want to be the lady's right-hand man, you can't back down.
Lu Xiang turned his head and looked at the two of them with gentle eyes.
"Be good and go guard outside."
It’s not that she didn’t trust Yunzha and Wuyue, but she couldn’t bear to see them have nightmares.
Lu Mingzhu, she wants to end it herself.
Yunzha and Wuyue couldn't do something like torture.
Ah Man is a secret guard trained by Chu Jinyan since childhood, and her psychological endurance is stronger than both of them.
Yunzha and Wuyue wanted to say something, but seeing Lu Xiang's determined look, they finally walked out obediently, closed the door and stood guard at the entrance.
After the two men left, Ah Man roughly dragged Lu Mingzhu off the bed to the ground, causing Lu Mingzhu to scream in pain.
"Bitch, what are you doing?"
Lu Xiang looked down at Lu Mingzhu condescendingly, just as Lu Mingzhu had looked down at him arrogantly when he was a prisoner in his previous life.
"You still have the energy to curse me. You are indeed very resilient." Lu Xiang chuckled and said, "Lu Mingzhu, how does it feel to be hated by the one you love?"
Lu Mingzhu tried to raise her head, as if this would make her look less humble in front of Lu Xiang: "Oh, what do you know? My husband doesn't hate me. He doesn't want to laugh at me. Lu Xiang, just give up."
"You are really stubborn." Lu Xiang laughed and said, "It's your business if you want to deceive yourself. After all, you are about to die. I don't care whether you feel bad or not."
Lu Mingzhu stared in shock, her eyes horrified: "What do you want to do?"
"Of course it's revenge." Lu Xiang's voice was so dark and close to her ears, but it made Lu Mingzhu feel as if it was far away, as if it came from hell: "Lu Mingzhu, I was so sincere to you in the past, and I treated you as my closest sister. For you, I helped your aunt become the mistress and made you the legitimate daughter of the Lu family. I was willing to do things for you behind your back and make you famous. I was even willing to share my husband with you, but you, not only did not know how to be grateful, but you deliberately plotted against me and made me die a miserable death. Do you understand the pain of being betrayed? Have you ever felt the feeling of being on the verge of death? You were so high and mighty, enjoying the wealth and glory that I worked so hard to build, but in the blink of an eye you sent me to hell. Today, I have to settle this account..."
When Lu Mingzhu heard Lu Xiang's roar, she became as stiff as a stone, as if struck by lightning, and her face turned pale.
What she said...I just dreamt about it.
Why did Lu Xiang talk about what happened in his dream?
Lu Mingzhu looked at Lu Xiang in horror, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar and was shivering all over.
"Who are you? Who are you?" She suddenly screamed heartbreakingly, the fear in her eyes seemed to tear her apart: "You are not Lu Xiang, no, that's not right, are you a human or a ghost... That was clearly a dream I had, how did you know, you are the evil ghost that crawled out of my dream, right?"
Lu Mingzhu looked crazy and spoke incoherently.
