Chapter 465: Disgrace
Translator: Lonelytree
Miss Lu was so innocent that it was cute. Even in this situation, she thought she could use her background to pressure people.
Lu Ke who was tied to the pillar could not understand the kidnappers. What dreams? Are they kidnapping me because of the news of my marriage to Quan Yu? That’s why they’re doing this? To get money from the Quan Family?
Seeing her like this, even the kidnappers felt sorry for her. With such an IQ, no wonder Lu Ke was fooled by their employer.
The tall kidnapper looked at Lu Ke and took out his phone, “Miss Lu, you better see this for yourself. Your conversation with that unlucky bastard has been released on the internet. You should hear what the people are saying about you!”
Lu Ke felt a chill run down her spine. How can this be? Isn’t Luo Cong in prison? How can he possibly release the recording?
Lu Ke refused to believe it but when she saw the trending like ‘Lu Ke’s schemes’, ‘Lu Ke is a monster’, ‘Mo Li is innocent’, her heart chilled.
How can this be? Does Luo Cong have a backup plan? Once he saw the trending was no longer about him and Mo Li, he had someone outside expose their recording?
“How much is your employer paying you? I’ll pay you double the price.” Lu Ke bit her lip as she looked at the kidnappers in front of her.
The two kidnappers laughed. “Haha. Miss Lu, you’re a funny person. Do you think we don’t know how much you’re worth? The price they’ve offered is much bigger than what you can afford.”
Lu Ke’s face turned red from their ridicule. What do these people mean? The future Mrs. Quan has all the wealth in the world. I’ll show them!
…
Lu Ke was trapped for 2 days and the Lu Family turned Pearl River over to look for her but they couldn’t find her. The banquet was imminent but Lu Ke was missing. Lu Hui was anxious.
On the day of the banquet, everyone appeared all dressed up but Lu Ke was still missing. Xiao Yue attended the banquet but she was dressed like the host. She even helped maintain the order at the hall.
“Miss Lu is probably too ashamed to see us!”
“She and Luo Cong have done those things, of course, she is too ashamed to show herself!”
“I never thought Miss Lu to have such a ferocious appetite. She really thinks she can take down the Mo Family?”
Xiao Yue smiled as she listened to the gossip. Then she sent a message on her private phone.
Outside the abandoned factory, the police siren filled the air. Hearing that, Lu Ke saw the glimmer of hope.
The two kidnappers looked at each other. The tall kidnapped uncuffed Lu Ke and dragged her to the door, using her as a meatshield.
“What are you doing? Let me go now!”
The iron gate of the factory opened. The rusted gate creaked shrilly and noisily.
“Don’t move, you’re surrounded!”
While the situation at the factory unfolded, Xiao Yu was keeping herself busy too. “My brother is a police officer so the Xiao Family is duty-bound to do something. We have sent out people to look for Miss Lu Ke. No matter what she has done, we need to save her. That is human decency.” Xiao Yue said righteously. She wore a luxurious long dress. The hem of the dress was decorated with diamonds that looked like the stars in the sky. When the lights hit her, she radiated.
On the other side, Lu Ke was the complete opposite. Her hair was disheveled and her face was covered in dirt. Her eyes dimmed. For a moment, she wished to die. She was now the quintessential bad woman in everyone’s mind… and she was lumped together with that monster, Luo Cong. Most importantly, her Brother Quan Yu did not come to save her immediately when she was kidnapped. This could only mean one thing. Brother Quan Yu was angry at her because she had caused the Quan Family to lose face. It was why he had taken so long to save her.
Lu Ke’s hands were tied behind her back. Under her long lashes, her eyes were red. She could barely see the officers who came to save her.
In just 3 days, her reputation was gone… She had no idea who had targeted her.
“Miss Lu, sorry for coming so late.” The young officer comforted Lu Ke. Lu Ke saw the glow in the man’s eyes, she believed he was mocking her.
When Lu Ke reached home, she did not receive a warm welcome from her parents.. Instead, Lu Hui was angry. “Didn’t you say you have everything under control? How can this happen?! You have disgraced the Lu Family!”
