The bright red blood seemed endless as it flowed down. Old Master Lin and Lin Xuanyin’s expressions changed. What was happening? Had Xiaorou miscarried?
Xiaorou had initially only pretended that her stomach was painful, but now her stomach was really painful. A sheen of cold perspiration appeared on her forehead. She stretched her hand out to touch and it was filled with blood.
“Ah!” Xiaorou gave a shrill cry. This was her precious baby! “My son! What happened to my son? Mr Lu, save me!”
Xiaorou’s legs felt weak and she crumbled onto the goat’s fur carpet. She was twitching from the pain and she could only use her limbs to crawl forward.
With ragged breath, she crawled to Lu Jinwen’s legs and stretched her bloodied hands out to pull on the man’s tailored black trousers.
Xiaorou used all her strength to raise her head and look at the man. He was very tall, and he was standing with one hand stuck into his trousers pocket. The crystal chandelier above cast a golden halo on his hair, and he looked dazzlingly handsome.
“Mr Lu, please save me… save our son…”
Lu Jinwen’s handsome and chiseled face was devoid of emotion. He glanced impassively at Xiaorou, as if he was glancing at an ant and said, “Let go. Don’t dirty my clothes.”
Xiaorou froze.
At this moment, a bodyguard in black walked over and threw Xiaorou to one side. A servant hurriedly ran over, knelt beside Lu Jinwen’s legs and used a clean handkerchief to wipe off the bloodstains on his trousers.
Xiaorou’s face was ashen. She had already miscarried, but this man did not show a single emotion. Why?
“Mr Lu, how did I miscarry? How did I lose my son… someone has harmed me! Mr Lu, you have to help us as mother and son…” Xiaorou sobbed.
At this point, Lin Xuanyin promptly stepped out. “Jinwen, it must be Xuanji. Xuanji is jealous that Xiaorou is carrying your son, and so she plotted to harm Xiaorou.”
Upon hearing these words, Xiaorou got up immediately and dashed towards Lin Xuanji, screeching, “It was you who did this to me! I will kill you!”
The bodyguard in black promptly restrained Xiaorou.
Lu Jinwen stepped backwards. He stretched his strong arm out and pulled Lin Xuanji into his embrace.
He glanced down at her and said in a low voice, “How about I ask Butler Ye to send you home first?”
Lin Xuanji shook her head. “I’m not going back.”
“Then you stay in my arms and don’t move about.” Lu Jinwen tightened his hold around her. He hunched his body a little and whispered into her ear, “I didn’t touch her at all. The child is not mine.”
Lin Xuanji only looked at him. “You don’t have to explain. I know.”
There was a glint in Lu Jinwen’s eyes and he promptly pursed his thin lips. So she knew everything.
He had accompanied Xiaorou to the hospital and given her a ring. He had even said that someone would not give birth to a son for him so he had found someone else. It turned out that she knew everything.
The man stared at her with his deep and penetrating gaze. Lin Xuanji evaded his gaze and looked at Xiaorou. “Are you looking at this? I’m the one he’s hugging and protecting in his arms right now. Even on that night, I did not agree to his marriage proposal and he went drinking in a fit of anger. Are you worthy enough for me to lay a finger on you? Why do I even need to?”
This was blatant provocation and humiliation. Xiaorou stiffened. “You!”
Lin Xuanji curved her red lips. “If I were you, I would think about whether I have eaten something I shouldn’t have eaten today.”
Something that shouldn’t be eaten?
Xiaorou immediately turned around and her head whipped to look at Lin Xuanyin. “It’s you! So it’s you!”
Lin Xuanyin was befuddled as to how the blame was suddenly shifted onto her. She shook her head promptly. “I didn’t. It wasn’t me!”
“You sent a pregnancy pill to me this morning and I took your medicine. It’s you who has harmed my son. I will kill you!” Xiaorou lunged towards Lin Xuanyin with a malevolent look.
“Ah!” Lin Xuanyin was pushed onto the ground and Xiaorou sat on top of her, pulling her long hair and scratching her face.
Lin Xuanyin had been living a sheltered and privileged life as Mrs Lu all these years and she had never needed to lift a finger. She was now being walloped by Xiaorou with no mercy.
“Ah! Stop hitting me, don’t scratch my face. It wasn’t me! I didn’t send over any pregnancy pill… Daddy, help me!” Lin Xuanyin shot a pleading look at Old Master Lin.
Old Master Lin wanted to move ahead but the bodyguard restrained him.
With his heart sinking, Old Master Lin knew that he had been tricked. Lu Jinwen had turned the tables around and let Lin Xuanyin and Xiaorou fight each other.
Lu Jinwen was the one who had instructed someone to send the pregnancy pill over. He had caused Xiaorou to miscarry.
How ruthless and merciless was this man?
“Jinwen, quick, pull them apart! Someone might die!” Old Master Lin pleaded Lu Jinwen.
Not seeming to hear the man, Lu Jinwen stuck one hand into his trousers pocket and held Lin Xuanji with the other hand. He looked at Old Master Lin and Lin Xuanyin as he curved his lips gradually. “Lin Xuanyin, listen carefully. I can get someone to take Xiaorou away, but you need to tell me the mastermind behind the incident at Bangkok Number 1 that year.”
Old Master Lin’s expression changed. So this was Lu Jinwen’s true agenda!
He had made use of Xiaorou to put on this show!
Lin Xuanyin’s face was bleeding and her heart was hurting tremendously. “Stop hitting me. Jinwen, quick, take this insane woman away… I don’t know anything about Bangkok Number 1… I don’t… I don’t!”
What happened to Xiaorou? She had just miscarried but she could still muster so much strength to beat Lin Xuanyin to a pulp. It seemed like she had taken some stimulant and it was frightening.
“Ah.” Lu Jinwen gave a low laugh. “If you’re not going to say it, then there’s only one ending for you, which is to get beaten to death.”
Beaten to death.
This was the best ending that he was giving to Lin Xuanyin.
Lin Xuanyin’s eyes suddenly narrowed. Lu Jinwen was so cruel towards her. How could he be so cruel?
Stop hitting me! Lin Xuanyin’s body was in excruciating pain and suddenly, she vomited a mouthful of blood. Her heart felt like it was squeezed tightly by a large palm and she was having difficulties breathing.
“Alright I will say it! The mastermind behind the incident at Bangkok Number 1 is… him!” Lin Xuanyin pointed at Old Master Lin.
Old Master Lin cried out, “Lin Xuanyin!”
“Daddy, I’m in so much pain, I don’t want to die, I still want to live… You plotted the whole incident regarding Bangkok Number 1 that year. You got someone to change 1 to 7, and you asked me to wait there…
“Jinwen, will this do? Quickly get someone to take the lunatic away!” Lin Xuanyin mustered all her strength to look at Lu Jinwen.
Lu Jinwen curved his lips coldly and shot a look at the bodyguard in black. The bodyguard in black promptly went up to pull Xiaorou away, but she was not deterred at all and only seemed even more frantic and manic.
Lin Xuanyin’s breathing was labored. What was happening? Why was the bodyguard not pulling Xiaorou away?
The bodyguard looked at Lu Jinwen. “President, we can’t pull her away.”
Lin Xuanyin looked at Lin Xuanyin indifferently and shrugged his shoulders in an apologetic manner. “I’ve already asked someone to pull her away, but they can’t do it. You heard it too.”
“…”
Lin Xuanyin knew that Lu Jinwen had done it on purpose. Her doomsday was here.
