Old Master Lu slammed his cane onto the ground with force and demanded in a loud voice, “Lu He, what’s the meaning of all this?”
Lu He wanted to continue defending herself, but Luo Ying interrupted her and said to Old Master Lu, “Grandpa, if you want to prove all of this, why don’t you just call that private doctor over?”
Old Master Lu nodded.
Sun Han was brought into the main hall. When he saw Lu He kneeling on the ground, he exclaimed with fear, “Auntie, have our deeds been discovered? Will the Lu family get rid of us? Auntie, I’m so scared.”
Luo Ying chuckled inwardly. Indeed, that naive fool had confessed without any prompting.
Lu He pushed Sun Han away like a madwoman. “Get away from me. Who do you think you’re calling ‘auntie?”
She crawled to Old Master Lu’s feet and pleaded, “Old Master, after serving you for all these years, could you spare me a chance at life? Give me some money, send me abroad. I promise I won’t come back to disturb you.”
Old Master Lu was beyond reproach. He kicked Lu He and remarked, “You shameless woman! You’re actually trying to negotiate with me at a time like this. Guards, take her away and lock her in the warehouse. I’ll deal with her once I’m done here.’
Two men approached and dragged Lu He away. She screamed like a pig being slaughtered, “Luo Ying, I won’t let you go! Luo Ying, I want you dead!”
“If you want me dead, you need to be capable of doing so.” Luo Ying retorted angrily in her thoughts.
Lu Zhao looked at Luo Ying with gratitude. He understood that Luo Yings ability to catch Lu He at such a crucial moment meant she had done her homework and gathered information.
She knew well that walking this path would eventually lead to a confrontation with the Lu family.
With Lu He out of the picture, Old Master Lu wasn’t planning to quit.
“Lu Zhao, you’re not ignorant of my methods. I suggest you hand over your shares now, or you’ll regret it,” Old Master Lu said maliciously.
“Oh? We’ll see if you have the capability,” Lu Zhao retorted while casting a sideways glance.
Old Master Lu suddenly burst into an eerie laugh. He suffered another round of violent coughing. After wiping his mouth, he said, “Lu Zhao, you’re still young. Do you know what people fear most in this world?”
Lu Zhao looked at him in confusion. He did not know what the old man was getting at.
When Lu Zhao remained silent, Old Master Lu continued, “The greatest fear is having a vulnerability because your enemies can easily exploit it.”
After saying that, he clapped his hands. Two burly men walked out with a woman.
As Lu Zhao caught sight of the woman’s face, his mind went blank.
It was his mother, Bian Su, whom he had sought for years without success.
Upon seeing her son, tears streamed down Bian Su l s face.
However, her mouth had been taped shut. She could not utter Lu Zhao’s name.
Bian Su l s clothes were ragged. Her frame was emaciated. The once lustrous black hair that Lu Zhao remembered now clung to her head like withered grass. Her eyes carried exhaustion and sorrow.
A surge of anger ignited within Lu Zhao. He glared fiercely at Old Master Lu. “What have you done to my mother?”
Old Master Lu burst into hearty laughter and coughed. He wiped his mouth and said, “The reason I’ve spared your mother’s life all these years was so that she could be useful one day. So, Lu Zhao, make your choice: surrender the shares or see your mother die.”
He paused and added, “By the way, let me remind you that I’ve poisoned your mother’s body. I’m the only one with the antidote. If you don’t hand it over, she won’t live past midnight.”
A sinister and smug smile played across Old Master Lu’s lips.
Lu Zhao’s fists clenched tighter and tighter. He was about to charge at Old Master Lu when Luo Ying held him and exchanged a glance with him.
Lu Zhao understood the message in her eyes. “Trust me; I’ll handle this.”
Luo Ying declared loudly, “Lu Zhao, you have the ability. Even without your company, you can start anew, right? Just go along with the old man.” 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝓌𝑒𝒷𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝑜𝓂
After saying that, Luo Ying walked over to Bian Su l s side and commented, “Even though Auntie is getting older, she still looks good.” As she spoke, she gently held Bian Su e s hand and exchanged a glance with her. Bian Su caught on.
Suddenly, Luo Ying pulled something out of her pocket and tossed it on the ground.
Soon, the entire room was engulfed in smoke.
“Run!” Luo Ying shouted..
