819 She Won’t Win Against Me
Shen Hanxing chuckled as she thought about how her previous life ended. She looked at Lu Shaoyang and Su Ling warmly and said, “But it’s okay. I’ll fight to get what I want. I think I’ll be satisfied with the outcome soon.” She did not miss the light in Su Ling’s eyes, or the tension between Su Ling and Lu Shaoyang. She was looking forward to what would happen next.
“Mrs. Ji, enough.” Lu Nuannuan’s face was covered in tears as she sobbed, “I know that the Lu family has let you and second uncle down. But this is enough. We have all learned our lesson. Let’s stop here, okay?” She couldn’t help but bawl. She held her head and continued, “We wouldn’t dare to disturb you anymore. Please, let us go…”
“I never did anything that I shouldn’t.” Shen Hanxing looked at Lu Nuannuan with pity, but her attitude did not change. Was Lu Nuannuan pitiable now? Her world had been turned upside down suddenly. The ugly truth had been revealed and her parents were going to prison. Of course, she was pitiable. But was she more pitiable than the Shen Hanxing who had been wronged in her previous life? Who had ever sorry for Shen Hanxing then?
Shen Hanxing lowered her eyes and chuckled. “Everything is your own doing. This is karma.” She didn’t say more as she turned around, waved her hand and left. She walked off like a beautiful swan moving into the light. Her body was covered in light, as if she was wearing a cloak and armor made of sunlight. She was moving into the light and leaving all the darkness and suffering far behind her.
Lu Shaoyang’s eyes were stinging, but he refused to blink as he watched Shen Hanxing leave. Su Ling was also watching her back, her eyes full of jealousy and viciousness. All kinds of negative emotions surged in her eyes, and finally transformed into a bone-chilling smile. “She won’t be happy for long,” she muttered, uncertain if she was talking to herself or to the people around her.
Lu Nuannuan’s face was pale as she was inexplicably frightened. She felt as if her family members had all changed. They were all wearing fake masks before. Now that their masks were off, their true colors were revealed. She was terrified. Lu Nuannuan shuddered when she heard Su Ling’s words and asked in a trembling voice, “Sister-in-law, what are you going to do?”
“What can I do?” Su Ling smiled slyly and asked mysteriously, “Nuannuan, don’t you want Mom and Dad to come back safely? They are already so old. Can you really bear to let them go to jail?”
Lu Nuannuan fell silent. Of course, she couldn’t bear to do that. Whether Lu Guo and Mrs. Lu had done those evil things or not, they were still her parents. They had raised her and had never done her wrong. Lu Nuannuan bit her lip, not knowing what to do.
“Su Ling, you have a way, don’t you?” Compared to Lu Nuannuan’s hesitation, Lu Shaoyang’s reaction was much more direct. He grabbed Su Ling’s hand excitedly and asked, “What should I do? Tell me, as long as we can save Mom and Dad, I’ll do anything!” It wasn’t until Lu Guo and Mrs. Lu got into trouble that Lu Shaoyang realized that he hadn’t grown up enough to face the ups and downs of adulthood alone. If it was possible, who would want to live under someone else’s roof?
It wasn’t like Lu Shaoyang couldn’t feel Su Ling’s parents’ contempt for him. But as long as Lu Guo and Mrs. Lu were around, he would have his parents’ protection and could continue to be the beloved young master of the Lu family. Therefore, he was the last person who wanted Lu Guo and Mrs. Lu to go to jail.
“I do have a way. Brother Shaoyang, don’t worry. Dad and Mom treat me like their own. I won’t turn a blind eye to what’s happening to them.” Su Ling chuckled. Her gaze fell on Lu Nuannuan as she said with a confident smile, “It’s not that I want to keep you in suspense or make you anxious, but I can’t tell you the plan until it’s done.” She continued cryptically, “After all, you know how good Shen Hanxing is at bewitching people. If the plan is leaked, Mom and Dad would really have to spend the rest of their lives in prison.”
