Tang Ruochu looked at Ying Xiaoxiao throwing a fit, threw her an angry glance, and said, "It's very obvious to me.""Okay." Ying Xiaoxiao pouted. "I used to know him a long time ago, and he's... the son of my father's friend.""I think there's more than that." If that was all to their relationship, would she need to speak so rudely to him?Ying Xiaoxiao pursed her lips tightly and looked at Lu Shengyao. She pondered for a moment before saying, "He's my ex-boyfriend.""Ex-boyfriend?!" Tang Ruochu exclaimed in surprise. This explained Xiaoxiao's horrible attitude towards him.Lu Shengyao lost control and laughed out loud. "Well damn, I guessed right."Ying Xiaoxiao frowned. "What were you thinking?""I thought there must have been some emotional dispute between the two of you, for you to treat Song Mo like that. Otherwise, a woman would never treat a man that way." Lu Shengyao spread out his hands. "I didn't expect myself to have guessed right. I'm such a genius."Ying Xiaoxiao's
Lu Shengyao smiled. "Sister-in-law, you don't believe me. You think Song Mo's a nice guy, right?""Actually, Lu Shengyao is right. Song Mo isn't as harmless as he looks. Inwardly, he's quite a sordid person." Ying Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes slightly, her heart surging with hidden emotions.Tang Ruochu raised her eyebrows. "Xiaoxiao, you had an unhappy relationship with him. Your words are subjective, and they are not very credible.""However... " She saw Xiaoxiao's expression suddenly change and that she was about to blow up, so she made a U-turn. "I can't judge a person's goodness or badness from a first impression. It's too subjective.""Sister-in-law, if you're interested, I can show you Song Mo's file." After all, words alone were not convincing. They must be backed by evidence."Sure." Tang Ruochu nodded. "That way, I can understand what Xiaoxiao's ex-boyfriend is like.""Am I right, Xiaoxiao?" She looked at Ying Xiaoxiao with a winsome, interested smile."Suit yourself." Y
The Tang Family's VillaZhao Xiaowan carried a bowl of steaming hot soup to a room on the second story."Ruoruo, can your Mom come in?" Her voice was cautious.There was no movement or sound from the room. She frowned and then opened the door gently. She walked in.The light was not turned on, and the entire room was pitch-black.Zhao Xiaowan instinctively reached out to press the switch on the wall. But a cold voice rang out."Don't turn on the light!"Zhao Xiaowan's heart trembled, and she immediately retracted her hand. Then, she stared with widened eyes, searching for something in this dark room."Ruoruo, Mama made you some soup. Eat it up, okay?""I said I won't have it.""But... "Zhao Xiaowan took a step forward and wanted to say more when something was suddenly hurled at her feet. She was so startled that she screamed. The bowl in her hands fell to the floor since she was unable to hold it firmly.It shattered, and the soup was all spilled."Get the hell out of her
After a long time, Gu Ruoruo asked, "Mom, when will Tang Ruochu take Tang Song to America?""In a few days. They are already completing the paperwork."In a few days? A hint of malice flashed across Gu Ruoruo's eyes. "Mom, do you want to see Tang Ruochu suffer a breakdown?""What do you want to do?" Zhao Xiaowan asked."Tang Ruochu cares about her father, doesn't she? Then we will make Tang Song vanish from the face of the earth." As she spoke, a cold, vicious sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth."Do you mean to... " Although Zhao Xiaowan suspected what she intended to do, she was still shocked."Crash!"Suddenly, a strange noise came from outside the room. Zhao Xiaowan and Gu Ruoruo swiftly exchanged glances and went after the intruder.If their conversation had been overheard, it would spell trouble.Zhao Xiaowan ran out and saw Uncle Zhao walking hurriedly to the stairs.A cold light gleamed in Xiaowan's eyes and she yelled, "Uncle Zhao!"Uncle Zhao heard her and st
She saw a strange man walk out. He had an ordinary-looking face and a rather lean figure, but he carried himself with an aura of ominous menace.This man is very dangerous!Gu Ruoruo knitted her brows, watching the man with guarded, probing eyes.There was another man in the house. How could she not have detected it?The man walked up and gave Gu Ruoruo a nod. Then, he looked at Zhao Xiaowan. "What do you need me to do?"Zhao Xiaowan turned and look at Uncle Zhao lying at the foot of the stairs. "Li Wu, dispose of his body."Li Wu followed the direction of her gaze and his eyes shone a little.Zhao Xiaowan looked back at him and said, "What? Don't you guys do this sort of thing often? Are you afraid?"Li Wu withdrew his eyes and threw her a cold glance. Then, he turned and descended the stairs.He could hear the sarcasm in Zhao Xiaowan's voice, but so what? What she said was true. They had indeed disposed of a lot of bodies.So he had no reason to refute her."Mom, who is th
...##At Royal Dynasty Heights, colorful glittering lanterns and lights adorned the outer walls. They contributed to the very beautiful scenic view, seen from a distance.Lu Shijin drove his car directly to the underground parking lot. Then, they took the observation elevator to the revolving restaurant on the uppermost floor.They walked slowly along the corridor paved with black marble tiles. Suddenly, their vision opened up.At the instant Tang Ruochu first saw the restaurant, a tinge of amazement flashed across her eyes.The lights in the main dining hall were resplendent, making the entire restaurant look lavishly sumptuous and magnificent.Pretty waitresses with sweet smiles welcomed them, ushering them to the table that Lu Shijin had reserved.Tang Ruochu sat down and looked outside the French windows delightedly. The window panes were wide and bright. They showed a panoramic view of the bustling Beining City."How lovely!" She gave a slight gasp of surprise, her pretty
Melodious piano music was playing in the dining hall of the restaurant. The atmosphere was exceedingly romantic and cosy.Lu Shijin looked at her with a faint smile in his eyes and on his brows. He asked softly, "How do you want to give me confidence?""Give me your hand." Tang Ruochu smiled mysteriously.Lu Shijin raised his eyebrows slightly and held out his hand.Tang Ruochu grabbed his hand, opened his palm, and glanced at him. Then, she bowed her head and wrote something on his palm."You are the most beautiful scenery."This was what she wrote.Tenderness suddenly overflowed in Lu Shijin's black eyes. The arc of his mouth became even more accentuated."What do you think?" Tang Ruochu raised her head and looked at him with a charming smile. "Do you feel confident now?""Yes, very." Lu Shijin grasped her hand and asked softly, "When did you learn to say such loving words?""Well... " Tang Ruochu pondered for a while and then said with a smile. "I was influenced by you, so
Although he was no busybody, Lu Shijin was still willing to play along with her, as she sounded so happy. "Why?""Because... " Tang Ruochu deliberately kept him guessing and started chuckling. "Song Mo is Xiaoxiao's ex-boyfriend."Lu Shijin raised his eyebrows in surprise. It was indeed quite unexpected."Are you very surprised?" Tang Ruochu took a sip of water from the glass on the table. She could not help but grumble. "I was very surprised myself. I didn't expect her blind date to be her ex-boyfriend."Tang Ruochu rattled on about Xiaoxiao's blind date in the afternoon. She was in high spirits and so happy that she forgot to enjoy the night scene.Lu Shijin watched her quietly, his black eyes as deep as a lake. A faint smile hung on the corner of his lips.Outside the French window next to them, the inky sky was dotted with scattered stars. It complemented the captivating sea of lights in Beining City at night—a beautiful scene.It was 10 at night when they got home from Roya
