Luo Ying sighed. “There has to be a way.”
Lu Zhao nodded and buried his face in Luo Ying’s hair. He gently took in the sweet scent on her body.
He could not explain it either. When he hugged Luo Ying, he felt an unprecedented sense of security.
“Don’t leave me in the future. Don’t take on these burdens alone,” Luo Ying said.
Lu Zhao nodded. The air quieted down.
Luo Ying suddenly thought of something. “Wiat a minute. What’s your relationship with Wen Yu?”
Lu Zhao raised his head and met Luo Ying’s reproachful gaze.
He liked it when she was jealous.
“She’s Wen Du’s younger sister. We grew up together.” Lu Zhao deliberately said something that would make Luo Ying jealous. “Grandfather hopes I can get married to her.”
Luo Ying turned away from him. “Oh, no wonder. Sirius seemed hellbent on pairing the two of you together.”
“Yeah, Sirius has always hoped that we can be together. She can also be in charge of my treatment.” As Lu Zhao spoke, he looked at Luo Ying with a smile on his face.
Luo Ying reached out and gently pushed Lu Zhao. “Then you can divorce me and marry her.”
Lu Zhao smiled. He visibly eased up.
“I have no feelings for her. I only like one person now. The current Luo Ying, the Luo Ying in front of me,” said Lu Zhao.
Luo Ying turned her head and met his serious gaze.
She had always been afraid that Lu Zhao had only liked the original Luo Ying.
However, Lu Zhao’s words deeply touched her heartstrings.
“I know,” Luo Ying lowered her head and said.
“So don’t leave me.” Lu Zhao hugged Luo Ying in his arms.
The sky outside had already darkened, and the two of them fell asleep.
On the other side of the city, in the Lu Family’s old residence, Old Master Lu was smoking and looking at the news on the computer in front of him.
Wen Du and Wen Yu stood by his side. They were silent.
The news on the computer informed him of Luo Ying’s secret return today.
“How’s that kid’s illness?” Old Master Lu asked slowly.
“It’s still the same. It’s probably because of the condition you mentioned before,” Wen Yu replied.
A scheming glint flashed across Old Master Lu’s eyes. “He still doesn’t intend to give in? Is that woman that charming?”
“Ms. Luo Ying’s charm is boundless. I’m afraid I can’t compare to her,” Wen Yu said with some difficulty.
The air fell silent.
Wen Du raised his head and looked at the old man. The old man’s hand was stroking the edge of the ashtray.
In the next second, the ashtray was thrown at Wen Yu.
Wen Du dove in front of Wen Yu. The ashtray brushed past the siblings’ bodies and shattered into pieces on the wall behind them.
“Trash,” Old Master Lu said.
“I didn’t raise the two of you to tell me you can’t beat the opposition.” Old Master Lu snorted. He picked up the teacup from the coffee table and took a sip.
He had controlled the Lu Family for many years. When the Wen Family was in shambles, he took in Wen Yu and Wen Du, the siblings, to nurture them. Then, he placed them by Lu Zhao’s side.
In order to do this, he had spent a lot of effort, but he did not expect these two people to be so disappointing.
“I think you should know very well how the Wen Family managed to remain in Lan City.” Old Master Lu’s stern gaze landed on Wen Yu’s face.
“Think of a way. I don’t care if you have to seek out the enemies of the enemy. Isn’t that right, Wen Yu?”
Wen Yu’s eyes widened. She had never thought of using such a method to deal with Luo Ying’s enemy.
“Thank you, Old Master. I understand.” Wen Yu lowered her head. A faint tinge of viciousness was hidden in her eyes.
“And you, Wen Du, continue to monitor Lu Zhao for the next few days. You have to report to me regularly,” Old Master Lu instructed him.
“Yes.” Wen Du nodded.
“Also, help me keep an eye on the matter with the Hedes Group, understand?” Old Master Lu put down his teacup and smiled coldly. “Lu Zhao is still trying to escape from my grasp. He’s still far too green.”
It was late at night, and the Lu Family manor was quiet.
Wen Du and Wen Yu walked out of the villa and got into the car.
Wen Du wanted to say something, but his sister’s gloomy face silenced him.
“Brother, I think it’s time for us to start our original plan,” she said softly. Wen Du remained in silent contemplation for a long time before he nodded..
