Shi Guang shook her head, feeling as though she was being stupid. Ever since her sister’s disappearance, she had been trying to link everything to her sister.
After returning to the Lus’ place, Shi Guang sat down a little with Shen Lingshuang before getting the chauffeur to send them to visit Xiao Bai.
As the black car left the Lus’ place, there were two people seated on stone stools at a stone table beneath the grapevines in the garden, scoffing coldly.
Yan Zi was resting her cheeks on her palm while twirling her wavy hair with the other as she looked at Su Liping. “The reason why you insist on us staying here can’t be because you think that that Lu guy has lingering feelings for you, huh? You can’t possibly think that by just appearing before him, you’ll be able to have him fall deeply in love with you once more and divorce that Shen Lingshuang to marry you, can you?”
Su Liping’s expression froze up slightly and did not reply her daughter’s question. She lowered her head gently and looked at her hands that she was holding together on the stone table. If not because of some accidents back then, why would she have chosen to marry another man?
All of these things in the Lus right now, including that throne of being Mrs. Lu, should have been hers.
In the past, he was clearly deeply in love with her, and even now, he was filled with concern toward her. That man didn’t love Shen Lingshuang at all—their marriage was just one of convenience!
This love that she had lost in the past… This time around, she had to get it back.
If she were to return to his side, he would definitely choose her over Shen Lingshuang. She was the one he truly loved, not Shen Lingshuang!
As Su Liping pondered over her thoughts, a wistful smirk slowly curled on her lips.
Looking at the way she was behaving, Yan Zi knew that she hadn’t guessed wrong. She could not help but scoff out coldly once more, “Have you thought about what’s your plan then? Do you need my help? I’m not afraid to let you know, but everything that Old Man Lu likes and doesn’t like? I know it at the back of my palms, even more so than you who’s his first love…”
As she spoke, her smile disappeared before she sat up straight and slammed her palm onto the table while snarling with clenched teeth, “All these years, you were wishing for my father to die earlier, weren’t you? When he died, were you just laughing out in your heart?”
Su Liping looked at her own daughter in shock. “What are you saying!”
Yan Zi pursed her lips and curled it into an arc, a smile icier than anything else. “Don’t you know what I’m saying? You had me return here to study in the past, and you especially looked for this man… You really thought that I didn’t know what you were up to? Even at that time, you were wishing for daddy to die so that you could marry this man, weren’t you?”
“What nonsense are you rambling about?”
Even though Su Liping was enraged, her daughter continued mocking her. “Don’t act as though you’re some pure lotus. Even though you clearly desire it in your heart, you act as though you couldn’t be bothered, smiling to everyone gracefully and thinking that you’re so elegant and classy. In reality, you’re a f*cking wh*re, sl*t, b*tch deep down in your bones! Compared to Shen Lingshuang, you’re far off!”
Su Liping was hopping mad and slapped Yan Zi in her rage. She was so livid that her lips were quivering. “Have you gone mad? What the hell are you talking about! Do you have any respect for this mother of yours?”
“Of course, I do! Otherwise, I would have sent you down into Hell to accompany daddy a long time ago. You can act… and hide it from everyone else, but you can’t hide it from me. You’d dare to swear that you don’t wish to marry this Lu guy at all?”
“You…!”
Su Liping wanted to say something but she was interrupted by Yan Zi. “Stop acting! There are only the two of us here now. The helpers are busy and the guards are far at the entrance. No one’s going to hear you.”
