LEGEND OF THE GOLDEN TIGRESS 507 The Warehouse 2

Will she succeed though? Will his step mother change her heart and decide to protect her daughter? They had time in their hands. Who is going to stop them?

Tears streamed down Xueman's face, hoping that her mother would help her at least now. Her mother's reactions made her laugh mockingly at herself soon.

There was a slight ripple in Rong Suyin's dark pupils, but soon in turned back to indifference. That slight ripple in the end was the only love Xueman has got from her mother her whole life.

Her mother always hated her and pampered Weiye more. Xueman never thought about it since she never missed mother's love when her father was around. Only after her father's pa.s.sing, did she realise how much her father was a part of her life. With her entirely isolated from everyone she knew previously and with the disappearance of Yuanjun soon after her father's death, she tried to get some love from her mother. It is human nature to look for love after all. And it is only natural for a child to look for their parents for love and nurture. But she had to take on the role of provider after her father's pa.s.sing and all she has seen is the scowling face of her mother till now.

Complaints,demands, nagging and more demands... That's all her mother would do to her. There was never once a day where her mother just sat by her side and brushed her hair or listened to what happened to her in school or work or just served her food or took care of her when she was.

All Xueman wanted to do today was to just give them a scare, so that they won't disturb her and her company anymore. She wanted to say that the Li Enterprises and Li Xueman is now under the protection of Lu Yuanjun and the Lu family and they, the Gao family cannot do whatever they want anymore.

'But why did it turn out this way? Even Yuanjun is in grave danger! '

Xueman with a dejected expression looked at her mother who, with her jaws clenched stared at her, like she was a stranger.

'I should have listened to Yuanjun!' Xueman blamed herself, 'He told me not be merciful towards those two and he was right when he said those two will go further beyond just blackmail and wouldn't mind hurting me even. How right was he? It was my foolishness and wrong understanding of these two whom I considered my family. He always is smart in reading people. And who stopped him from destroying the Gao family entirely? Fool! ' Xueman mocked herself in her heart.

" If we let you go now, how will we be sure to get that properties from you? What if you cheat us after we let you go?" her mother spoke to Xueman as if she didn't gave birth to her and as if she was a stranger.

Like a stranger is an understatement. Well, most people wouldn't behave this way, even with strangers, right?

'Once again, you were right, Yuanjun! No wonder! You were a successful Emperor in your previous life and even now, listening to your advice have improved my company considerably. It's like... Judging people and ruling over others is ingrained in you! I am a fool to believe in familial love and discarding your advice. And now you are in danger too'

Xueman laughed wryly. She needs to now wait for Huang Qian to arrive. She has to come here soon. Or else...

Weiye who was looking through the contents of Xueman's phone laughed.

"So you called the cops too? How silly of you? If we've known to stop Lu Yuanjun, can you believe us if I said..."

"The only road here is blocked by us, dear step- sister... Even military tanks cannot cross a road blocked with boulders and trees..." Gao Lin said in a leering tone and tried to hold Xueman's cheek and she turned away from him.

'So I have no help here! '

Xueman felt helpless as she closed her eyes and tried to think of a plan to escape there.

" So, Weiye... You could only come up with these kind of plans,huh? You really haven't changed, " she said, slowly unb.u.t.toning the long coat she was wearing.

"Huh!" Weiye wondered what Xueman is doing undressing herself and wondered if the stress made her go mental.

"Like past... You already tried this kind of thing on Huang Mingxia with the help of Kei Takano, didn't you? Do you remember what happened after? Didn't you lose Lu Junjie entirely after that? Just after you delivered his children, he sent you to the cold Palace... See how it is going to repeat again... Oh, is that why you think killing him would keep you safe?" she threw the dark blue coat on the dirty floor with a sneer.

" What are you saying...? " Gao Lin was confused by what Xueman said. The names weren't familiar to him and cold palace? What's that?

And with his l.u.s.t getting over him seeing the baby blue blouse she was wearing getting exposed, he tried to grab her but before he could get her, he was shoved aside by Gao Weiye.

"Mingxia you b.i.t.c.h!"

Weiye tried to grab Xueman and she got aside while Weiye fell on the floor and scratched her nail on the floor making an unpleasant noise. Every memory of her past where she suffered came to her mind, bringing along a hammering headache.

She thought Mingxia would be defiled by those men and would lose her everything that day but she was the one who got hit by that Rui w.a.n.g that day and her husband didn't even help her even though she was pregnant. She suffered the rest of her pregnancy and during the hard labour, Mingxia made crazy by putting a spell on her and sent her to the cold palace. In the end, her name wasn't even written in the Chronicles of their Kingdom as the Empress of the Tingtian Emperor and also the mother of the next Emperor.

All the cold days... That day when her eldest son looked at her like a piece of trash... The last day she breathed, alone, lonely, with rats beside her, gnawing at her while she was half-alive... Everything came to her memory.

She wanted to scream and so she did!

Xueman looked at the man wearing black leather who looked confused by everything. Weiye really looked like a crazy person who had escaped from a mental asylum as she was screeching and screaming.

"How much she offered to pay for, I can double it for you. What do you say?" Xueman asked. She knew there will be some help arriving. She somehow had a strong belief that she won't get ruined today.

'I won't get defined today! I refuse to!'

She gathered herself up and tried to change the situation.

The Lu family owes to the Li family and they all remember that. They won't abandon her and Yuanjun will be absolutely fine. He could always think ten steps ahead. He must be fine. He should have seen this and be prepared accordingly and she needed to keep herself safe too.

"Don't listen to her! She is not worth that much. Everything she has..."

"I'm the fiance if the fourth Lu young master. Think, if the Gao family can pay more than the Lu family," Xueman tried to convince the boss man. She cannot handle Gao Lin alone but if she could recruit the thugs for herself, she could escape here scot free. The cameras in their hands were all still rolling and she knew how much of a scandal it would cause if this gets out.

"The Lu family, huh?" the boss walked up to her with a smirk in his face and Gao Lin got mad.

"You promised us and now you are getting swayed by this...."

"Shut up!" the boss shouted at Gao Lin, "Let me hear her. So... You really are the daughter-in-law of the Lu Family?" he asked her and she nodded.

"Huh..." he nodded his head, licking his lips and came close to her. Xueman took a step back. As she was talking, she had gradually retreated without alerting them and now was just twenty feet away from the door. Those men seemed to carry guns and she wanted to try and run away and in case she failed, she was willing to get shot and die rather than getting defiled.

"Then Gao Lin," the boss man looked dangerously at Gao Lin.

"I'll do it for free!" he grabbed Xueman's throat gritting his yellowed teeth.
