When Lin Zhiyuan arrived, Li Yanwan was nowhere to be found. The cozy home they had decorated together had already become a mess. The flowers that Yanwan had just put in the garden in the morning had fallen to the ground.
The scattered crimson petals and the food on the table that had been cooked but not yet eaten foreshadowed Li Yanwan's fate.
Lin Zhiyuan's face was gloomy, and his dark pupils were shaking violently. Could it be that the beastly third brother really told Lu Rong?
Without time to think about it, Lin Zhiyuan quickly called Lu Rong.
Lu Rong answered the phone and didn't say anything when she heard an angry voice from the other end.
"Lu Rong! Where did you hide Wanwan?"
Li Yanwan beside her had her mouth covered and could not speak, and could only make a weak sound for help. Lu Rong glanced at Li Yanwan. Whether it was fifteen years ago or now, she had never been better than her.
From the beginning to the end, Lu Rong failed to enter Lin Zhiyuan's heart. Even after giving birth to four children, they were not able to defeat the lowly Lin Shuyu. For the first time, Lu Rong felt that she was a failure. She was obviously a rich lady, but not only could she not get true love, she couldn't even protect her own daughter who was replaced by someone else.
Lin Zhiyuan and Li Yanwan's actions were nothing but slaps in her face. She took a deep breath and said, "Lin Zhiyuan, you're still the same as you were fifteen years ago. Let's see how you can protect her this time."
She had already told the Lu family that Lin Yu was her biological daughter. Upon hearing this, her father and brother immediately decided not to partner with the Lin family.
Lin Zhiyuan replaced Lin Yu eighteen years ago. It seems that he has been holding grudges against them for a long time. What's the point of forcing them to cooperate? I'm afraid that there will be a disaster later that will affect the Lu family.
Lu Rong was happy but also felt guilty about her father and brother's decision. She thought that if she had not insisted on marrying Lin Zhiyuan, she would not be like this now.
"Lu Rong, I'm telling you, don't try to do anything rash!" Lin Zhiyuan lowered his voice, "This won't do you any good!"
"Given the Lu family's current situation, are you sure you want to confront me head-on? I advise you to think it over carefully before you regret it later!"
These words made people think that Lin Zhiyuan was declaring war on the Lu family. Lu Rong sneered: "Do you think I'm afraid of you? From the day you exchanged Xiao Yu away, our friendship has come to an end."
"You know everything?"
Lin Zhiyuan was stunned. No wonder Lu Rong found Wanwan. It turned out that the matter had been exposed!
But Lin Yu had not met the Lin family during this period, so how did she know?
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. Lin Jingchen killed Hei Hu just to avenge Yu'er for not being his biological sister. He knew Yu'er's identity, but when did he discover Yu'er's identity?
Was it recently, or the last time he told Yu'er to get lost?
Lin Zhiyuan couldn't figure it out and didn't dare to think about it too much. He thought that this matter was done very secretly, but he didn't expect it to be exposed.
"We've been married for almost twenty to thirty years! I don't ask for your sincerity, but you're actually willing to trade away our only daughter! What was your attitude all these years watching me bully Xiao Yu?"
"Why are you so cruel? Xiaoyu is just a child. How has she offended you? Just because Li Yanwan gave birth to a girl, are you going to switch her with Lin Shuyu?"
Lin Shuyu, this name was chosen by her and Lin Zhiyuan after thinking for a long time, indicating that Lin Shuyu is their treasure, the most precious gift, while Lin Yu is the redundant Yu.
She had compared Lin Yu and Lin Shuyu countless times before, and when she saw that Lin Yu was no match for Lin Shuyu, her heart was filled with joy. But now thinking back, all her actions were like sharp knives stabbing at Xiao Yu.
Lu Rong didn't even dare to imagine when Lin Yu discovered his true identity and how he struggled through those painful days.
Did she also hope that I would believe her words? But she said so at the time? I felt that she was deliberately destroying the mother-daughter relationship between me and Lin Shuyu. Thinking about it now, Xiao Yu must have felt sad and helpless at that time, right?
Lu Rong had no idea that the real Lin Yu had died at that coming-of-age ceremony. If she knew her true identity, she probably wouldn't be willing to recognize the Lin family and herself.
Even the most tolerant saint cannot stand the long-term bullying and discrimination.
"Why don't you know? If your family hadn't coerced me, would Wanwan and I have been able to separate? You were the one who separated Wanwan and me from the beginning to the end! I never loved you!"
These words hit Lu Rong's heart hard. She was not surprised, but relieved. "You finally said this. You were with me because of my family's influence."
"But Lin Zhiyuan, have you ever thought that if you had explained the situation from the beginning, perhaps you and Li Yanwan could still be together, but you didn't. Not only did you not tell me the truth, you also played both sides, enjoying the benefits my family brought to yours while on the other hand you complained that I broke up you and Li Yanwan!"
"Lin Zhiyuan, am I a cheap person? If you hadn't expressed your feelings to me, would I be with you?"
It is true that Lu Rong likes Lin Zhiyuan, but she is not willing to die for him. If she had known that Lin Zhiyuan would be loyal to Li Yanwan until death, why would she get involved? She also has her own self-respect.
Lu Rong looked at Li Yanwan. Of course, she was filled with hatred for this woman hiding in the dark, but wasn't Lin Zhiyuan the real culprit?
But Li Yanwan is definitely not innocent. How can she be a good person if she agreed to let Lin Zhiyuan send his only daughter to her?
I'm afraid she's also involved in this. Is she watching me bullying Xiao Yu behind my back?
"Lu Rong, I'll just say one thing! If you hurt Wanwan, the relationship between the Lin and Lu families will be over!" Lin Zhiyuan threatened.
Lu Rong sneered, "Then give it a try. We've already leaked the news to the reporters and will hold a press conference later. You'd better figure out how to explain it to the public now!"
After saying this, Lu Rong decisively hung up the phone without giving Lin Zhiyuan a chance to react.
Although family disgrace should not be made public, this is no longer just a family scandal. This matter concerns the reputation of both the Lin and Lu families, and it is a battle that must be won at the cost of the entire family's honor.
When Lin Zhiyuan heard that a press conference was going to be held, it was like a bolt of lightning struck him on the head. Was Lu Rong prepared to fight him to the end?
Could it be that she doesn't even care about the Lu family anymore and wants to break up with him?
Lin Zhiyuan couldn't understand. Even if it was Lin Yu, she wouldn't make such a big fuss even if she knew the truth. If she did that, both the Lin and Lu families would be pushed to the forefront.
This way.
Lin Yu was a little surprised to hear that the Lin family was going to hold a press conference. She didn't know what was going on, but her intuition told her that something interesting was going to happen. Thinking of this, Lin Yu decisively turned on her mobile phone and squatted in front of the screen.
