Dead?
That child was already dead?
Jun Mosheng punched Lu Jinwen again. “You caused the baby’s death! Lu Jinwen, it’s all your fault! Without that child, Xuanji will never wake up!”
Lu Jinwen didn’t avoid his punch. He jolted backwards and managed to stand straight again.
He had taken two punches from Jun Mosheng.
Lu Jinwen’s chest was pumping and he wiped away the blood on the corner of his mouth. He glared at Jun Mosheng with bloodshot eyes and turned around to leave.
Just like that, he left.
“Uncle Jun,” Tang Mo’er walked up to the man. “Was he telling the truth? Is my younger brother really dead?”
Was Lu Jinwen telling the truth? Could he be lying?
Jun Mosheng was panting as he looked in the direction that Lu Jinwen left. “The entire Capital was under Lu Jinwen’s control and I wasn’t able to come back when Xuanji was in labor back then. When I sent someone over to investigate the matter after that, the doctor, nurse and even maids had all disappeared into thin air.
“Lu Jinwen had left the child along the streets and when I sent someone to the Capital to check the surveillance camera tapes, everything was deleted already. Mo’er, Lu Jinwen had already erased all traces of that day. Even I have no idea whether the child is alive or not.”
Tang Mo’er knitted her brows, it seems like the only one who knew the truth was Lu Jinwen.
A magnetic voice then started speaking. “The child had some problems back then, right?”
Jun Mosheng and Tang Mo’er turned around, looking at Gu Mohan who had raised the question.
“President Gu, Xuanji was forced to take an abortion pill during her pregnancy and the doctor had diagnosed that the child would have a 90 percent chance of being disabled. Earlier on in Xuaniji’s dreamland, the baby wasn’t able to cry and looked at Xuanji without making a sound. The baby must have some sort of disability,” Jun Mosheng answered.
Gu Mohan raised his brows and a face appeared in his mind, that child also had a pair of almond-shaped eyes.
The baby wasn’t able to cry when he was born, he just looked at Xuanji blankly without making a sound. Most people would just assume that the child is intellectually disabled, but actually, there was another possibility. He could have been… a genius with an extremely high intellect.
The baby wasn’t making any sounds and only looked at the world he had entered, assimilating into his surroundings and accepting his arrival on earth quickly.
Gu Mohan smiled, he felt that everything was getting more interesting as things continued to unravel.
…
Dinnertime.
Meng Lu was entertaining the guests. “Everyone, please take a seat, my wife has personally coked for everyone tonight. Let me invite my wife in now.”
The High Priest’s wife appeared.
Although the High Priest was already over 50 years old and his son, Meng Che was 30, his wife was only 22 years old.
So it turned out that the High Priest’s wife had passed away a long time ago and he had married his current wife. She was Miaojiang’s greatest beauty.
“The High Priest’s wife is really beautiful.”
“That’s right, the High Priest has hidden away a beautiful wife.”
Everyone was laughing politely.
Meng Lu had doted on his wife greatly, he stretched an arm out to pull his wife beside him. “My wife, it’s been a hard day for you.”
The High Priest’s wife was doe-eyed and she appeared innocent and shy. With so many distinguished guests making their appearance today, her face flushed red.
But she quickly paid attention to an imposing figure among the crowd. That man hadn’t lifted his eyes to give her even one glance.
The High Priest’s wife took a few secret glances at him, her face already florid.
…
After dinner.
Lu Jinwen brought Lin Siyu out of the lobby and she had accidentally knocked into a man.
“Are you walking with your eyes closed?!”
Lin Siyu’s stopped complaining immediately after realizing she had knocked into Meng Che.
Meng Che’s lascivious gaze was on her, though she was a counterfeit, they had in fact spent a good time in bed last night. Moreover, Lin Siyu was a virgin and Meng Che yearned for her even more as he continued sending her lustful glances.
Lin Siyu hated Meng Che, noticing that he was sending those perverted glances at her and she spat out contemptuously, “What are you looking at? If you continue, I’ll gouge your eyeballs out!”
“Gouge my eyeballs out? Your attitude last night wasn’t like this. Come over, let me have a good feel of your body.” Meng Che stretched his arm out and caressed Lin Siyu’s face.
“Ah” Lin Siyu let out a soft scream and hid behind Lu Jinwen.
She was Lu Jinwen’s woman and she was only going to serve Lu Jinwen. Who did this Meng Che think he was, how dare he even covet her?
Lu Jinwen was suave, wealthy, wielded great power and even had a high social status. Women were bound to fall for him, but Meng Che was different. He was merely a young master in Miaojiang, he would never hold a candle to Lu Jinwen. They weren’t on the same scale. The reluctance and disgust on her face showed her unwillingness to talk to Meng Che at all.
Lu Jinwen glanced at Meng Che and gave him a spurious smile. “Young Master Meng, you seem so desperate. Are you going to just take off your pants right here?”
Meng Che looked at Lu Jinwen and replied, “Mr Lu, you’re so bad.”
Lu Jinwen laughed and left.
Lin Siyu quickly followed behind him.
…
After entering the room, Lin Siyu took a hot shower and stepped out of the bathroom after putting on a red nightdress.
The room was dark as the lights weren’t switched on but there was a dark figure standing there. Lin Siyu quickly ran over and hugged the man from behind. “Mr Lu, do I smell good?”
“Yes! You smell so f*cking good!” Meng Che had replied and turned around, pulling Lin Siyu into his arms.
Lin Siyu was stunned, she shrieked, “Ah!! Why is it you? Why are you in my room? Where’s Mr Lu, get lost!”
“Little beauty, why are you kicking up such a fuss? Mr Lu was the one who let me inside this room. In fact, he instructed for you to serve me well tonight, haha!”
Lu Jinwen had sent her to serve Meng Che in bed again?
Lin Siyu’s limbs went cold and she struggled. “No, I don’t want to! Let go of me, I don’t want to serve you!”
Bam! Meng Che lifted his hand and gave Lin Siyu a slap on the face. “F*ck, you were behaving like a slut in front of Mr Lu and when it’s my turn, you act like you’re a woman of virtue. Are you looking down on me?”
Lin Siyu was dumbfounded after being slapped by Meng Che. Old Master Lin had never hit her and when she was with Lu Jinwen, he was gentlemanly and the Lu family was honorable. It was never in their blood to hit women. She had spent a great time at the sea view bungalow, without having to endure any hardship.
She led an easy life, she would just have to act coquettishly in exchange for generous amounts of expensive jewelry. But now, this Meng Che had actually hit her!
