“Yuning, can you tell me honestly if this matter is related to you?” Fu Yahui asked curiously.
“Mom, look at what you are doing again. Why do you always blame me for anything that is related to Huo Yuxi? How would I know if Lu Zongye is not really related to the Lu family? If I had known that, do you think I would have waited this long to expose the truth about him? Mom, you are overthinking everything,” Jiang Yuning replied.
“That is true. Furthermore, X Society had also released some nasty articles about you in the past. I must be overthinking it. I will go to the Lu family mansion together with you later, just in case you get bullied when you are there.”
“Don’t worry, mom. You do not have to accompany me. I already know how to handle them,” Jiang Yuning replied. “Since I am already implicated in this situation, I might as well get involved and make some contribution to the matter then. Earlier today, Li Shutong’s biological daughter requested for my fans’ help to contact me. She had asked me to help her to confront the Lu family and I initially did not want to offer her my help. However, now that Lu Zongye has openly pushed the blame to me, I shall not give him any face either.”
“Are you really going to help her?”
“Mom, if Lu Zongye is really an impostor, the Lu family will discover the truth sooner or later. Would it not be better if we discovered the truth earlier?”
Fu Yahui understood what Jiang Yuning was trying to say.
“If Lu Zongye is really an impostor, then it would also be better for your elder sister to get out of the marriage before she suffers further losses.”
Jiang Yuning smirked as she listened to Fu Yahui’s words. If you wanted to see how ruthless a person could be, Fu Yahui was the one.
If you wanted to see a person who could lose all their affection and turn ruthless overnight, then Huo Yuxi would be the one.
After hanging up on Fu Yahui’s phone call, Jiang Yuning quickly packed her bag and then drove to Chen Jingshu’s house to pick her up before heading to the Lu family mansion.
“Sister Yuning, would it be dangerous in there? Do you want me to accompany you?” The young paparazzo who was seated in the car with Chen Jingshu quickly asked Jiang Yuning. He felt extremely uneasy because he was afraid that Jiang Yuning would face some sort of danger in the Lu family mansion.
“No.” Jiang Yuning shook her head. This was because she knew that her second brother would definitely have made all the necessary arrangements to ensure her safety in advance. “Wait for me here. When the time is right, I will call for the both of you to come in.”
“Yuning, thank you for going through so much trouble just for me.” Chen Jingshu who was seated at the back seat of the car quickly thanked Jiang Yuning.
“You do not need to thank me. I believe everyone would be willing to do the world some good and clean up all the scumbags and wicked people in the world.” After speaking, Jiang Yuning opened her car door and stepped out of the car as she had already parked her white sedan within the Lu family mansion compound.
The butler quickly rushed over to greet Jiang Yuning as soon as she stepped out of her car. “Miss Jiang, the situation in the mansion is extremely tense right now. You have to be careful and take good care of yourself. Even though the second young master has already made some arrangements to ensure your safety, I am still worried for you.”
“Butler, you do not have to worry. I will take care of myself,” Jiang Yuning replied as she laughed. She knew that Lu Jingzhi would definitely make arrangements to protect her and ensure her safety. “The real Lu family member is seated in the car right now. Please send someone to look after her and ensure that she is comfortable.”
“Understood.”
As soon as she heard the butler’s reply, Jiang Yuning pushed the door of the living room open. Lu Zongye and Li Shutong were anxiously pacing up and down the living room at the moment.
“Jiang Yuning, you little shrewd. You are finally here,” Lu Zongye said as he pointed his finger at Jiang Yuning. He walked towards Jiang Yuning before adding, “Even if you hate me that much, you should not be making up ridiculous stories like that because no one in the Lu family will believe you!”
Jiang Yuning looked at Lu Zongye before she turned around to look at Lu Zhengbai.
The corner of her lips curved into a smile as she said, “I knew that the people in the Lu family—especially you, Lu Zongye—would definitely try to place the blame on me whenever something bad happens. Did I do something bad to you in my past life? Why are you always trying to implicate me and blame me for everything?”
“Who else would hate me so much besides you?” Lu Zongye retorted, refusing to admit defeat.
“Yuning, is this matter really related to you?” Lu Zhengbai asked as he looked at Jiang Yuning doubtfully. “I know that Zongye had let you down in the past but you should really not create false rumors like this.”
“Uncle, I think you are focusing on the wrong things right now. The most important thing that you should be doing right now is to find out if Lu Zongye is really your biological son. Do you really want to be used by others like this?” Jiang Yuning asked Lu Zhengbai as she stood in the middle of the living room. “I know that they must have told you many bad things about me to influence your judgment before I arrived. However, you should only believe in the evidence that is presented before you. X Society had already posted all of the evidence and DNA reports online, but there are still some who are trying to twist and deny the truth.”
“Jiang Yuning! I have already said that I am a member of the Lu family!”
“Is that right? Have you asked your mother about the truth? Did you ask her what she did twenty-seven years ago after she gave birth to a daughter? Did she tell you that she bribed the doctors and nurses in the hospital and paid the woman who was warded next to her so that she could trade her baby girl for a son? Did you know that your mother hired a man to drive over her own biological daughter, breaking both of her legs in the process? Have you ever asked her about all that?” Jiang Yuning questioned Lu Zongye directly in front of Lu Zhengbai’s family.
“You…you are speaking nonsense!” Li Shutong stuttered.
“Madame Li, why is your counterattack so weak? Is it because you have a guilty conscience?” Jiang Yuning asked as she laughed. “You do not have to be so defensive and deny all the allegations so quickly and desperately because it only makes my allegations even more convincing.”
“Zhengbai, look. This is Jiang Yuning’s confession. If she was not the one who released the fake news, then why would she have so much information on it?” Li Shutong tried to change the focus of the conversation.
“Yes, that is right. Do you want to know why I know every single detail so clearly? This is because your biological daughter, the real member of the Lu family, had asked my fans to help contact me this morning. She asked me if I could do her a favor and bring her over to the Lu family so that she can finally confront you about everything that you have done. Initially, I did not want to get involved in the personal affairs of the Lu family. But since it seems like I will get dragged into this situation no matter what, then I have no choice but to bring her over here…just so I can prove my own innocence.”
Li Shutong turned pale as soon as she heard Jiang Yuning’s words.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that her heart skipped a few beats.
“Jiang Yuning, stop all your tricks already. My father will never believe you.”
“Where is she?” At that point, Lu Zhengbai interrupted Lu Zongye and asked Jiang Yuning directly.
Lu Zongye stared at his father in disbelief.
“She is waiting outside,” the butler suddenly replied.
“Bring her in.” Lu Zhengbai instructed the butler with the wave of his hand.
At this moment, Jiang Yuning noticed an extremely guilty expression across Li Shutong’s face. It was no wonder that Lu Zhengbai was also starting to doubt Li Shutong.
Moments later, Chen Jingshu was pushed into the living room on her wheelchair. Lu Zongye looked at Chen Jingshu’s pale and weak appearance and suddenly laughed out loud. “Jiang Yuning, even if you wanted to find an impostor to take over my identity, can you not do better and find someone who looks more decent than this?”
Chen Jingshu glared at Lu Zongye with anger and hatred in her eyes. This was the man who had not only stolen her identity but had also destroyed her entire life.
Now, he was standing right in front of her.
“You are an impostor because you are not a member of the Lu family. Even if you cut off all your hair and check your blood time and time again, the results will still be the same. You are not a member of the Lu family. You are just a thief. Lu Zongye, you stole my life and my identity. If you do not believe me, you can ask your mother. Ask her if she dares to go for a DNA test.”
“Mom…”
“I…” Li Shutong did not know what else she could say.
“Well, it looks like Mrs. Lu is very scared of me.” Cheng Jingshu turned her attention to Li Shutong when she noticed that Lu Zongye had nothing to refute her allegations with. “Do you remember that rainy night three years ago when you paid that drunk driver to run me over? I lost my legs that night…do you remember it?”
“You are speaking nonsense! I do not…I do not know you at all!” Li Shutong quickly denied.
