"If I tell you that Lu Anqi wants to kill me, will you believe me?"
Ji Weiyang's expression became more serious, his eyes fixed on her without blinking, and the hand he was holding her with couldn't help but tighten. After a long period of silence, only then did Ji Weiyang solemnly reply with two words, "I believe you." He held her hand tightly and pressed it against his heart. "Yan Yan, tell me, what happened?"
"I …" Just as Zhan Yan was about to speak, the door was pushed open with a bang. Du Xiaomo walked in, and when she saw that Zhan Yan was awake, she was overjoyed.
"Zhan Yan, it's good that you're awake.
"I'm fine, I just accidentally fell down." Zhan Yan warmly replied. She naturally would not let Du Xiaomo know too much, if she knew Du Xiaomo's explosive temper, it would be strange if she did not go all out against Lu Anqi.
"It's all my fault. Next time, I'll definitely follow you every inch of the way. No, no, next time, I won't drag you out." Du Xiaomo said nervously. When she raised her head, she found that both Ji Weiyang and Zhan Yan were staring at her.
At this moment, her eyes were slightly red, her cheeks were flushed, and her lips had been bitten until they were swollen. Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell what was going on.
Ji Weiyang's face darkened. Without even thinking, he knew that his big brother Ji Weixin must have caught up to him at the hospital. His elder brother had just been well-behaved for a few days when his elder brother had actually made a comeback.
"Come out with me for a bit." After he finished speaking, he took the lead to walk out. Du Xiaomo lowered her head and followed closely behind.
In the empty and quiet corridor, Ji Weiyang leaned on the bedside, and silently smoked. He had almost finished all the cigarettes, but he still did not open his mouth.
Du Xiaomo, however, could not hold it in any longer, and opened her mouth, "Just say what you want to say. "Wei Xin is waiting for me downstairs. I can't stay too long."
"Ji Weiyang coldly threw the tip of his cigarette onto the ground and stamped it out. Is he waiting for you downstairs? Du Xiaomo, you really are reckless. Don't you know who my big brother is? He was a military marriage, not a joke. My family's old man has always turned a blind eye, but that doesn't mean he'll just let you guys continue to cause trouble. "
Du Xiaomo lowered her head, and her tears fell. She had indeed thought of giving up. She had also thought of leaving. However, every time she saw him, saw his haggard appearance, and her eyes filled with longing, she felt so much heartache that she couldn't let him go. Of course they had struggled before, but it was the first time they didn't feel pain and struggle as they held each other's hands.
"Du Xiaomo, you only have two choices right now. The first is to leave my big brother and find a good man to marry and have kids with like a normal woman. If you don't want to, be prepared to be a lover he will never be able to see again. Otherwise, if this matter gets out of hand, the old man will definitely make a move on the Du Family. Do you think you can take it? "
Although Ji Weiyang's words were cruel, Du Xiaomo understood that what he said was the truth.
Since she was young, she had known her own life with her mother. She would rather marry a poor boy to earn a living. She didn't want to live the same life as her mother. That kind of life was simply too dark. They were like mice crossing the street, and everyone was shouting at them.
However, she had already gone against her own intentions. Her heart started to lean towards Ji Weixin, she was no longer able to control herself as she walked down the path her mother had once walked.
"Actually, your life or death has nothing to do with me, I just don't want Zhan Yan to feel sad. Du Xiaomo, do you still want to see my brother?
With that, he turned and walked into the ward.
On the empty hallway, Du Xiaomo stood there in a daze, her heart struggling desperately, his phone kept ringing, as though she was trying to get herself killed, and her name kept on flashing on the screen. She closed her eyes tightly, tears rolling down from the corners of her eyes. In the end, she hung up the phone mercilessly and turned off her phone. Then she left the hospital alone.
At this time, Ji Weixin sat in his car downstairs and waited.
On the other side, when Ji Weiyang returned to the ward once again, he was already asleep on the bed. His sleeping face was pale and still, and his breathing was shallow and even.
"Yan Yan, good night." Ji Weiyang lowered his head and pecked her lips lightly, before rolling over and lying down by her side, hugging her and falling asleep together. At this moment, all his worries and worries were completely forgotten.
At this time, inside Lu Family's apartment, Lu Anqi was completely drunk. She collapsed on the sofa and muttered to herself non-stop, "Weiyang, Weiyang, why did you change your mind? Why don't you love me anymore …"
"Angie, what's the matter with you? "Why do you drink so much?" Lu Manyun sighed helplessly, and quickly took out a towel to wipe her sweat. However, Lu Anqi held her hands tightly, and wailed in pain, "Mom, tell me, why do you think? I love him so much, and I only left him for a short period of time, and then he changed her mind. There are no good men in this world. "
Lu Manyun continued to shake her head. This foolish child, she had already left for so many years and then left without a word, so how could any man wait in this kind of situation for his entire life.
"It's hard to drink so much, isn't it? I'll go get you some honey water." After Lu Manyun finished speaking, she turned around and walked back into the kitchen.
She poured a cup of warm water and found the honey jar empty. Lu Manyun remembered that she bought a jar of honey a few days ago and placed it in Angel's bedroom.
Lu Manyun walked into the bedroom and looked for the jar of honey in the cupboard. However, she couldn't find the honey. Instead, she found many medicinal bottles in the drawer. She took a few at random and found that they were all vitamins.
Lu Anqi did not care, she continued to rummage through the honey, and accidentally knocked over a few bottles of medicine, and various pills were scattered all over the floor. She squatted down and started to pack, but suddenly realized that the vitamin pills looked very similar to the ones Angie usually took.
She took out the medicine that the doctor gave Angel from the drawer next to the bed. After pouring it out from the bottle, she compared it with the vitamin pills, and found that the two medicines looked exactly the same. She secretly hid some medicine, then continued to search for honey.
Lu Manyun gave some honey water to Angel, and she became much more obedient after drinking it. "He sat properly on the sofa." I'm sorry, Mom, I made you worry. "
Lu Manyun looked at her intently, "Angel, you haven't had any problems recently, have you recovered?"
"Huh?" Lu Anqi was slightly stunned, but then she casually replied, "I feel really much better lately. Mom, I'm hungry, why don't you make me something to eat?"
Lu Manyun gave her a bowl of egg noodles and lied about leaving because she had something to do. She carried a handbag with her that contained the medicine that Angel usually took.
She drove to the nearest hospital and took the medicine to the hospital. She sat alone outside the lab, waiting for the results. At this time, Lu Manyun's heart was very complicated. She hoped that Angel wasn't sick, but at the same time, hoped that those medicines were really used to treat mental illnesses. After all, no one wished to be deceived.
A long time passed in this torturous wait. When the test forms finally came out, Lu Manyun was still disappointed. Those drugs were just ordinary vitamins, not drugs to treat mental illnesses. Lu Anqi had deceived her so much that she had suffered greatly. She did not have any mental illness at all. So it turns out that every time she got sick, it was just an act. She used her sickness to gain sympathy and hurt others with dignity. Lu Anqi, she was simply too scary.
Lu Manyun stumbled as she drove back to her house. When she pushed open the door, she saw Lu Anqi sitting in front of her dressing table to put on her makeup.
"Mom, I have a show tonight. Are you coming with me?" Angie asked as she put on her makeup. She was wearing a black satin dress, but it was a high-end dress.
Lu Manyun stood there stiffly, the expression in his eyes that had been staring at her the entire time was very complicated.
Angel put on her makeup and walked in front of Lu Manyun with her LV2. She did not notice Lu Manyun's strangeness and grabbed onto her mother's arm and said, "Mom, help me call Weiyang. This is my first performance after I've recovered, I hope you and Weiyang can accompany me."
Lu Manyun's mood was faint, and even a little cold. You can call him yourself, how could he listen to me? "
"If he doesn't listen, you can go find Uncle Ji. Uncle Ji doesn't listen to you the most." Lu Anqi shook Lu Manyun's arm coquettishly. However, Lu Manyun didn't coax her like she did before. Instead, she coldly pushed her away.
At this moment, Lu Manyun seemed to suddenly understand something. Lu Anqi had actually always been using her, using her to restrict Ji Bocheng, and thus restrain Wei Yang. For her own self-interest, she could even use anyone.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She did not intend to continue beating around the bush with Lu Anqi and directly took out the examination form from her bag and threw it over to Lu Anqi. Angie, I want you to explain why you're taking vitamins. "
Lu Anqi was stupefied. She had always been extremely careful, yet Lu Manyun had actually discovered her. She staggered back two steps, her heart pounding in panic. "Mom, mom, listen to me. I, I also have my own difficulties. I didn't mean to lie to you …"
"Is there any difference between deliberately deceiving and intentionally not? You lied to me for so many years just by accident. All these years when you were pretending to be crazy and play dumb, have you thought about how heartbroken I am as a mother? " Lu Manyun held onto her chest as tears rolled down her cheeks non-stop.
"Since the matter had been exposed, Lu Anqi was too lazy to continue lying to her. All these years, she had been tired of acting in front of Ji Weiyang and now that she has to continue acting in front of him, she has had enough of it." Since you already know, I won't continue to hide it from you. I did suffer from depression after my miscarriage, but I recovered quickly. After we returned to our country, I had originally planned to go find Wei Yang, but he actually married Wei Zhanyan. I have no way of knowing, if I didn't lie to him, he would definitely leave me. "
"But you tricked me too." Lu Manyun said angrily.
"What do I do if I don't lie to you? Are you going to lie with me!" Lu Anqi could not help but raise her voice.
Lu Manyun was really angered by her, she raised his hand and ruthlessly slapped her. Do you even have a reason for lying to me? What exactly have I taught you all these years? "
Lu Anqi tightly held onto her face that was painful from the beating, and her tears also unceasingly flowed out of her eyes. You hit me? What qualifications do you have to hit me? "
"Just because I'm your mom."
"My mother is dead." Lu Anqi roared back.
Lu Manyun was stunned on the spot, she looked at her with wide eyes, "Did you already know that Vice Dean Zhao is your mother? You also had a part in the conspiracy to kill Zhan Yan, right?"
Lu Anqi did not answer, but laughed sarcastically, "You're so nervous, and this is all because Zhan Yan is your biological daughter. Don't think that I don't know."
Lu Manyun nodded her head in heartache. She simply could not imagine how Lu Manyun could become like this. She wasn't like this when she was young. Fine, let's say I didn't teach you well. Lu Anqi, you have long grown up and are not insane. I no longer have any duty to you, move out from your house today. I don't want to see you again. "
After Lu Manyun finished speaking, she turned around and walked into the bedroom. This time, she was truly hurt by Lu Anqi.
When Lu Manyun chased her away, Angel really panicked this time. Ji Weiyang had already broken off all ties with her, and once he left, she would become homeless. She could only wander the streets.
"Mom, I know I was wrong. Can you forgive me? Don't drive me away. " Lu Anqi continuously knocked on the door, but this time, Lu Manyun had hardened her heart and wanted to chase her away, so she didn't care about him at all.
Lu Anqi pleaded for a long time, but since Lu Manyun did not open the door, she was forced to pack up her things and leave. She had only a small amount of cash at home, and she took it all with her.
Before she left, she subconsciously turned her head back and stared coldly at the tightly closed bedroom door, "Lu Manyun, you will definitely regret this."
After Angel left, Lu Manyun finally opened the door to her bedroom. Her eyes were completely red, after all, she had been raised as a child and it was impossible for her to not feel anything.
Lu Manyun was enraged by Angel, and her body started to feel uncomfortable. She forced herself to go to the kitchen to cook and drink some porridge. After finishing the porridge, she returned to her bedroom to rest.
She slept soundly. Finally, she was awoken by the noise coming from outside the window. She got up and pulled back the curtains. There was a police car downstairs, sirens wailing.
Who knew which family in this district had committed a crime? Lu Manyun closed the curtains in boredom and turned to return to her bed, but right at that moment, a knock came from the door.
Lu Manyun got up to open the door. She thought Angel had come back, so she said, "What are you still doing here?"
She stopped midsentence, dumb. "There are actually two officers wearing police uniforms standing outside the door." What do you all want? "
The police didn't waste any time and immediately took out an arrest warrant. "Lady Lu Manyun, someone has reported that you are related to the Luo Meihui death case. Now that you have been officially arrested, please come with us."
Lu Manyun didn't say anything. She obediently stretched out her hands, allowing the police to put on the cold handcuffs.
The news of Lu Manyun's arrest quickly reached Ji Bocheng's ears. He even skipped important meetings and rushed directly to the detention centre.
As the two sat facing each other, Lu Manyun lowered her head and remained silent.
"Don't worry, the case of the Merchant Shop has already been settled. I will inform the higher-ups and try my best to make it small and trivial." "Man Yun, I won't let you go to jail." Ji Bocheng said warmly.
Lu Manyun shook his head, and sighed silently, "Actually, I owe you and Mei-jie always one apologies."
"I know that you didn't intentionally push MeiHui down from the second floor. That was just an accident. Even if it is the spirit of heaven, I will definitely forgive you. Furthermore, we have always been innocent between them, and she will not blame you for that. "
"No." Lu Manyun shook her head with tears in her eyes, "Although I didn't do it on purpose, Sister Meihui still died because of me. I did something wrong and I should have paid the price. At that time, I should have stood up bravely and not let Zhan Yan take the blame for me. Do you know Bo? Zhan Yan is my daughter, my biological daughter. She did not die. All these years, it was them who lied to me. "
After Lu Manyun finished speaking, she covered her face with both hands and finally cried out.
After Ji Bocheng was stunned for a moment, he easily figured out the sequence of events and it was really fate that had tricked people. MeiHui had always been against Wei Yang and Lu Manyun's daughter getting into a relationship, in the end, the one who married into the family was actually Manyun's own daughter.
"Bo City, can I ask you a favor?"
The moment Lu Manyun opened her mouth, Ji Bocheng was able to guess what she was thinking, "Man Yun, if what you want to say is about Zhan Yan, then don't say it. You should be very clear about Zhan Yan's situation. She can't be with Viyan. I do owe you a lot, but I can't pay you back with Viyan's happiness. "No matter what condition you speak of, I will agree to it. However, this will not do, absolutely will not do."
