“Yes, it’s just as you think.” Lu Sizheng quickly interrupted Lu Xiangtian’s words, confirming his guess and also cutting off Lu Xiangtian’s last hope, “At that time, the reason why Officer Zhao appeared here was all planned by us. Everything that happened here was just a trap set up by us in collaboration with the other party, including revealing the news that someone was trading drugs here at that time, including getting people to ambush your daughter, and also including your fake daughter mingling in the police force. Using the convenience of her identity, she openly removed the thorn in her side in front of everyone. Everything was a trap set up by us, but…”
Lu Sizheng changed the topic and turned to look at Lu Xiangtian, “You’re the one who gave us this opportunity to find a reason to kill your biological daughter,” he said maliciously. “Lu Xiangtian, you’re the one who killed your biological daughter. You’re the one who killed her yourself!”
If Lu Shu’s previous words were merely a stab in Lu Xiangtian’s heart, then Lu Sizheng’s words were like a bomb placed in Lu Xiangtian’s heart, blowing it to pieces. Then, he sprinkled a bag of salt on the wound.
If Lu Xiangtian’s goal was to see Lu Xiangtian in pain, then he had to admit that he had done it. Lu Xiangtian was truly living a life worse than death.
When he found out that his beloved wife had died, his heart had been as dead as ash. However, he still thought that he still had a daughter and his last family member. He had to find his daughter and give her the best that he could.
It could be said that after his wife died, his daughter was his last resort. However, now that he had lost this last resort, and that his daughter’s death was inextricably linked to him, how could he accept this. How could he calmly face his wife and child in the afterlife?
Lu Sizheng admired Lu Xiangtian’s rare, pathetic appearance, and his eyes were filled with unspeakable joy and glee.
“That’s right. You killed her. You killed her.” Lu Shu could not help but step forward and chime in.
In the face of Lu Xiangtian’s pained expression, it was as if she could see Zhao Youlin’s shadow in Lu Xiangtian. The two of them were indeed father and daughter.
She hated Zhao Youlin so much that she wished she could grind her bones into ashes. Unfortunately, Zhao Youlin had died a few years ago. In that case, the resentment in her heart was transferred to her father.
What Lu Shu did not say was that the reason why she had made up her mind to kill Zhao Youlin back then was, of course, because of jealousy and hatred. She hated how lucky Zhao Youlin was and how she had snatched away her adoptive mother that should have belonged to her. She had snatched away the home that she wanted, and even the love that she had received from Lu Xiangtian back then was all thanks to her. What made her most jealous was that Zhao Youlin had received the love of the man that she loved.
She wanted Li Yan, and she wanted a home that truly belonged to her, a home that she could form with the person she loved. And all of this was based on the premise that she was Lu Xiangtian’s daughter.
The moment she saw the necklace on Zhao Youlin’s neck, Lu Shu knew that it was the necklace that Lu Xiangtian had mentioned to her before.
In order to not expose her identity, she had to kill Zhao Youlin and take the necklace for herself.
After Zhao Youlin’s death, Lu Shu had indeed gone to look for the necklace. However, no matter how much she tried, she could not figure out that Zhao Youlin’s necklace had long been taken away by Mu Chen and somehow returned to Zhao Youlin’s hands. Moreover, it had been discovered by Lu Xiangtian, it had become the fuse to expose her identity.
That was why it was fate. Some things were ultimately yours, and you couldn’t get them even if you didn’t scheme against them.
Lu Shu had always felt that she had suffered a lot in order to keep this secret, but now that she saw Lu Xiangtian in pain, she suddenly felt that it was all worth it.
However, before Lu Xiangtian and Lu Xiangtian could be happy for long, two voices came from not far away, interrupting the Lu family’s “reunion.”
“Youin, after listening to all this, how do you feel?”
“Heh, how should I put it? It was a little uncomfortable. After all, they were the people who killed me once. In the end, not only did they not feel any remorse, they even pushed the blame onto others. They used a person who had died once to repeatedly make a fuss about matters. Even if he didn’t bother me, I would feel annoyed.”
When they heard this, they were stunned for a moment. Then, they seemed to have realized something. One by one, they suddenly turned their heads to look at Zhao Youlin and… Mu Tingfeng, who had been silent since they started talking!
It would have been better if they had not looked. With just one look, they saw Zhao Youlin grab a tall man who was pointing a gun at her. She lightly grabbed his wrist and twisted it downward. The man cried out in pain. The expression on his face twisted for a moment, and the pistol in his hand fell to the ground. He was kicked to the corner by Zhao Youlin. Then, with a solid shoulder throw, she put the man down on the ground.
The bodyguard in black who was standing on the other side of Zhao Youlin watched his companion being put down. He was stunned for a moment before he finally came back to his senses. He hurriedly raised his gun at Zhao Youlin. However, at a critical moment of life and death… a moment of hesitation was often the distance between life and death.
A second before the man in black raised his gun, Mu Tingfeng, who had quietly moved to a place not far from Zhao Youlin, had already stepped forward and kicked the gun in the other person’s hand away. Then, he gave a backward roundhouse kick… he directly swept the person to the side and fell to the ground, unable to get up.
The husband and wife quickly put down the two men. Then, they tacitly leaned back against each other and looked around with a guarded expression. They asked at the same time, “Are you okay?”
The two of them were stunned. Then, they smiled tacitly and replied, “I’m fine.”
Their actions startled Lu Sizheng’s men. After realizing what Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng had done, everyone pointed their guns at the two of them.
Lu Xiangtian and Mu Tingfeng’s men did not just stand around either. They turned their guns and directly took aim at Lu Sizheng’s men.
However, neither side dared to act rashly because they hadn’t received their master’s orders. They only pointed their guns at people and didn’t shoot on the spot.
Lu Sizheng was also shocked by Zhao Youlin’s actions. After he came back to his senses, he chuckled and said meaningfully, “I can’t believe that Officer Zhao’s skills are still so good after so many years.”
“Young Master Lu, you flatter me. No matter how skilled one is, how can they be faster than your bullets? Compared to back them, I am far rustier now, but that didn’t stop your bullets, did it?”
“So what? Even the heavens looked kindly upon you. Even if you lost one life, they simply threw another to you, an even more exciting, luxurious one too, I might add.”
