814 It Hurts
Mrs. Lu couldn’t accept it. The Shen Hanxing she had once despised and looked down upon was now standing high and mighty before her, watching her make a fool of herself. That was intolerable! Shen Hanxing was a vixen who had managed to seduce the son she had raised for over twenty years. She could not afford to show her weakness in front of Shen Hanxing!
Meanwhile, the pregnant Su Ling’s eyes were filled with hatred. She glared at Shen Hanxing viciously without saying a word. Lu Shaoyang stood beside Su Ling and held her shoulder with his hands. His eyes were quivering. He didn’t know what kind of expression he should put on to face Shen Hanxing, but his eyes couldn’t help but fall on her face again and again. She was still as beautiful as ever, so beautiful that she was domineering. As long as she appeared, she would occupy everyone’s attention. In front of her, everyone else looked ordinary. She was the only one who was rich and colorful, and her every smile was filled with endless charm.
Lu Shaoyang didn’t know when it had started, but the beautiful, slender, and extraordinary Shen Hanxing, who had a cold and unruly look on her face, had become like this. The gloominess on her face had disappeared, and she was now calm and peaceful. She was elegant and relaxed as if nothing could make her look at her more than once. She walked over calmly, and she moved countless people. But she was unmoved.
Lu Shaoyang was even more fascinated by her. He loved her beauty, but he hated her arrogance and indifference. After experiencing countless things, this complicated feeling evolved into a hatred that he could not get her. Until now, he did not even have the right to hate. She stood there as usual, separated from the chaotic world, beautiful and dazzling. Meanwhile, he fell into the mud and was getting further and further away from her.
“Brother Shaoyang, you’re hurting me.” Su Ling called out in a low voice. She noticed that Lu Shaoyang’s expression seemed strange, and her face was instantly resentful. However, she didn’t want to embarrass herself in front of Shen Hanxing, so she lowered her voice and said, “Brother Shaoyang, you’re still thinking about Shen Hanxing, aren’t you? You still can’t forget her, right? The Lu Corporation is gone, and Shen Hanxing is the wife of the chairman of the Ji Corporation. Do you think you’re still worthy of her?” Su Ling sneered. Every word she said was like a steel knife stabbing Lu Shaoyang. “I’m the only one willing to take you in and support a useless piece of trash like you. Do you hear me? You’re not allowed to look at Shen Hanxing anymore?” She said it fiercely but couldn’t help but feel a little lost and sad. She didn’t know why things had come to this. Her life, marriage, and love could only be maintained with her threatening Lu Shaoyang. She didn’t even know whether the bankruptcy of the Lu Corporation was a good thing or a bad thing. At least Lu Shaoyang had nothing left. If he wanted to maintain his life of luxury, he could only rely on her, right? However, the Su Corporation suffered a great loss because of her stubbornness.
This time, Lu Feng invited Shen Hanxing over to witness the Lu family suffering the consequences of their actions. Even though Su Ling had threatened them with her life and forced the Su family’s parents to lend a helping hand, the Lu Corporation was still unable to survive. The project had gone through another tender, and the Lu Corporation could not pay their bank loan. They were already on the verge of bankruptcy. The Lu Corporation would no longer exist in S City today.
Lu Shaoyang’s expression changed when he heard Su Ling’s words. His eyes darkened. No man could stand such humiliation. However, he knew he was no longer the heir of the Lu Corporation. He was now a poor man who had to bear huge debts from his parents and become a negative asset. If he wanted to maintain a decent life, he could only rely on Su Ling. He held back his anger and tried to squeeze out a smile. He raised his hand and rubbed Su Ling’s shoulder. “I’m sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose. Does it still hurt?”
