817 All For Naught

Lu Guo and Mrs. Lu’s faces were ashen. They stood still dejectedly and allowed their wrists to be handcuffed. It was over, everything was over. Lu Guo did not say a word and his eyes dimmed. He did not know what he had been fighting for all his life. For the Lu Corporation, he had gone astray, disregarded fraternal affection, and killed two people. He did all that when Lu Feng, the de facto heir to the family business, never wanted it. And now, the family business went under with him at the helm. His decades of scheming were all for naught.

Hearing Lu Nuannuan cry and seeing Lu Shaoyang’s expression as if the sky had fallen, Mrs. Lu couldn’t help but cry, “Shaoyang, you’re the older brother. You must take good care of Nuannuan. Nuannuan is still young, so I’ll leave her in your hands…” Since things had come to this, she also whispered, “You siblings must support and take care of each other. Don’t be like Lu Guo and Lu Feng, who have fallen out so badly that there is no way to turn back.”

After saying that, she grabbed Su Ling’s hand and said, “Su Ling…”

“Mom, you’re hurting me.” Su Ling frowned and tried to pull her hand back, but she failed. She didn’t expect Mrs. Lu to be so strong. The crazy expression on her face also made Su Ling more afraid. She didn’t expect that the kind Mrs. Lu, who had taken care of her since young, could be a murderer. A truth like that made Su Ling’s hair stand on end. She was so anxious that she was about to cry. She held her baby b.u.mp and begged, “Brother Shaoyang, I am with child. Please ask your mother to let go…”

Lu Shaoyang didn’t miss the look of disgust and fear in Su Ling’s eyes. He clenched his fists. How dare this woman despise his mother? Did that mean she also secretly despised him? Lu Shaoyang wanted to slap Su Ling in the face, but when he thought about how everything in their house would be auctioned off, and how he and Lu Nuannuan would need to rely on Su Ling for a living, he calmed down.

“Mom, you’re hurting Su Ling.” Lu Shaoyang said plainly. He stepped forward and grabbed Mrs. Lu’s wrist. His eyes were red as he said in a choked voice, “Mom, don’t worry. It’s going to be okay. Don’t worry.”

“I… I’m so anxious that I’m confused.” Seeing the tears in Lu Shaoyang’s eyes, Mrs. Lu felt like she was scalded. She suddenly let go and looked at Su Ling with a pleading expression, “Su Ling, I’ve always treated you like my own daughter. I’ve never been unkind to you all these years. Promise me that you’ll take good care of Shaoyang and Nuannuan. Promise me…” Her tone was so anxious that Shen Hanxing couldn’t help but feel a little emotional. Was this her mother? Could the high and mighty Mrs. Lu lower her head for the sake of her children?

“Will do.” Su Ling paused when she saw Mrs. Lu’s pleading eyes. She was a little impatient, but she also felt a sense of superiority. It was as if she just realized that the tables had turned. Mrs. Lu, whom she had to please and be careful around in the past, was suddenly begging her humbly, appealing to her using her years of kindness. Lu Nuannuan, to whom she had to give in all the time in the past, was crying like a baby. She had no one to rely on except her sister-in-law. Lu Shaoyang also had nothing now and could only rely on his wife.

The realization made Su Ling’s entire body heat up and she was extremely excited. She could not help but smile and say in a gentle voice, “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll bring Nuannuan home and take care of her with Shaoyang.” From now on, she would no longer be the one married into the Lu family. Instead, Lu Shaoyang and Lu Nuannuan would be returning to the Su family with her.

Mrs. Lu did not notice the subtle change in Su Ling. When she heard Su Ling agree to her request, she nodded with tears in her eyes. “Thank you. I know, I know that you’re a good child. Mom hasn’t misjudged you.” These were the only things she could do now. She knew her children. Lu Shaoyang had been sheltered since young. He would probably still sail through life if he took over Lu Corporation someday, but Lu Corporation was gone and Lu Shaoyang wasn’t someone who could build a business from scratch. Lu Nuannuan had been spoiled since young and could hardly take care of herself. Mrs. Lu could only hope that after this incident, Lu Shaoyang and Lu Nuannuan would grow up quickly and face the rest of their lives on their own.
