Chapter 28

Lu Li was perplexed by Pei Xin’s question.

He had never seen this version of her before. He was getting frustrated that some things were starting to get out of his control.

“Got nothing to say? If you have nothing to say, then you may leave.” Seeing that Lu Li didn’t say anything, Pei Xin spoke again.

Ever since Lu Li had taken her to the Platinum Crystal Hotel and let those rich kids humiliate her, she felt nauseous every time they were in the same vicinity.

Lu Li ignored the fear of losing control over this woman and puffed out his chest. “Pei Xin, I didn’t expect you to be this shameless. It’s one thing for you to be cheap, but for you to steal my sister’s man?!”

Pei Xin was speechless. Lu Li was such an arrogant, hot-tempered, and irritable person. How could she have been so blind to fall in love with him?

“I didn’t.” She didn’t want to waste her time with Lu Li and didn’t want to explain too much either. It would be a waste of her breath. She was confident that Lu Li wouldn’t believe a word she said.

As expected, as soon as she finished, Lu Li spoke mockingly, “Do you think I’ll believe you? There were so many witnesses around. You were at the crime scene along with her husband! Can you not live a day without ruining other peoples’ lives and sleeping with other men?!”

Lu Li’s words were like knives, stabbing into Pei Xin’s heart and suffocating her.

Pei Xin took a deep breath. “You people from the Lu family have persecutory delusions. Do you all want to be cheated on so badly?”

Her words obviously struck a chord in Lu Li’s heart. He took a step forward and raised his hand to slap her.

To his displeasure, Pei Xin merely looked at Lu Li’s face without any intention of cowering.

Lu Li didn’t hit her. “Great. Perfect! You must think that you can get away after offending the Lu family, right?”

Pei Xin laughed at herself. “I’ve already been forced into the abyss by you guys. Wouldn’t the worst outcome be me taking my life?”

For many years, the Lu family had continuously suppressed the people around Pei Xin, and she had nowhere to retreat.

Lu Li listened to Pei Xin and licked his lips. “We’re not from the underworld. We don’t do things like murder and arson, but you have to know that life is full of accidents. Tell your useless brother to be careful when he goes out and take care of that little b*stard. Who knows what might happen to that!”

“You b*stard!” Pei Xin was no longer afraid of death, but her two loved ones were the only things keeping her afloat. Lu Li found a weak spot and said, “If you want to kill me, then come at me!”

The mask Pei Xin was wearing finally cracked, and Lu Li’s mood improved. “In my eyes, you are a bunch of sinners.”

“Don’t bring them into this!” Pei Xin clenched her fists.

“Why can’t I? No, Pei Xin, I will make all of you wish you were dead.” Lu Li suddenly became ruthless and grabbed Pei Xin’s chin. “Tell me, is that little b*stard Sun Yue’s?”

Everyone knew that Sun Yue had pursued Pei Xin at university, and Lu Li was no exception. At that time, Lu Li believed in Pei Xin and her feelings for him. Now that he’s learned his lesson, it was possible that she could have slept with Sun Yue in the past.

“No!” Pei Xin answered without hesitation. Even if she did, she would not admit it to him.

She desperately wanted to find someone to rely on for Ling Lin, but if that person was a wolf in sheep’s clothing like Sun Yue, Pei Xin would rather not have him.

“No?” Lu Li laughed in anger. “Bullsh*t! If he hadn’t found out about that child, would he have divorced my sister and not wanted a child?”

“Their divorce has nothing to do with me!”

“Were you hoping for the divorce to happen? Do you think that Sun Yue will marry you so that you can rely on Sun Corporation?” Lu Li lifted Pei Xin’s face and forced her to look at him. “I’m telling you right now, Sun Yue wouldn’t dare make that move. Come and follow me back to the Lu family this instant.”

Lu Li then pulled Pei Xin and prepared to leave.

“No! Let go of me!” Pei Xin struggled violently. She had just left that suffocating place and did not want to go back.

“You have to kneel down and apologize to my sister.” Lu Li didn’t pay attention to her struggles.

Pei Xin was too weak to protect herself. Although Ling Jin had been taking good care of her recently, it was impossible for her to recover in such a short time. She was so weak that she was being dragged forward by Lu Li.

“Lu Li, you beast, let go of my sister!” Ling Jin, who was in the room, heard the commotion and rushed out.

Lu Li didn’t stop because before Ling Jin could get close, a group of bodyguards had already blocked him.
