“Lin Ping, what do you even see in me?” Ling Ying raised an eyebrow at Lin Ping.
Luo Ying had suspicions from the start.
She had already learned from Lin Lu about the unique ingredient in her blood when the Lin Family drugged her.
The Lin Family had designs on her blood. It was perfectly reasonable for her to believe Lin Ping was one of them.
Lin Ping scowled as he met Luo Ying’s suspicious gaze. “I just like you. Must I explain further?”
“You know I can’t trust the Lin Family,” Luo Ying said. “Your sister had me drugged. Your brother tried to, well, you know what comes after the drugging. More than once, I’ve been attacked. Physically, verbally, over the internet.”
Lin Ping frowned. He looked genuinely confused.
“It’s my blood,” Luo Ying said. “My mom has pumped me full of her experimental drugs. It has changed my biological makeup. Your sibling couldn’t care less about my consent. She just wants my blood so that she can experiment on me.”
Lin Ping’s jaw dropped, and he stared at Luo Ying in shock.
“Let’s not forget what D’Corporeal is doing overseas.”
Lin Ping stared up at the sky. Lin Su’s operations were mostly shady, and as a result, he had angered and harmed many individuals over the years.
If Luo Ying’s blood worked miracles, his sister would surely turn her into a living blood bag, no matter how twisted it sounded.
Lin Ping’s grinned in self-mockery. He hadn’t anticipated his family to be so reprehensible.
“I see.” Lin Ping dipped his chin in shame. There was grief in his eyes, but he kept it out of Luo Ying’s sight.
“I love Lu Zhao. Nothing is going to change that.” Those words were as good as a death sentence to Lin Ping.
Lin Ping did not respond.
“Stop holding your breath for me.” Luo Ying walked out of the room after turning around.
Lin Ping watched her as she walked out of sight.
Production soon resumed as usual.
Luo Ying’s variety program throughout the nation went off without a hitch as well. Recently, Luo Ying’s schedule had been full.
They continued searching for Su Su, but they never made any progress.
She made a special trip to Su Su’s house, only to find it deserted. Even her pursuers seemed to have vanished.
Luo Ying was perplexed.
The criminals that went after Su Su were local celebrities. Why would they suddenly vanish as well?
Luo Ying’s questions were soon answered
Jin Shi found the thugs. Zhou Yuan was the man who had led the latest pursuit.
Zhou Yuan was blind in one eye and covered with wounds.
Jin Shi surprised Luo Ying by bringing him to her.
Luo Ying had met him in the past.
Although not much time had passed, he already resembled a sack of bones due to his severe weight loss.
“What happened to you?”
Zhou Yuan let out a defeated sigh. “That Lu Family’s youngster hit us hard. Some of us managed to escape. I was caught and tortured. I’ve just only recently escaped. I heard Jin Shi was looking for answers, so I made contact.”
A Lu Family younger? It could not possibly be Lu Zhao, who was not even aware of Su Su’s existence, thus it had to be Lu Wen. Why would Lu Wen make such a move?
Luo Ying stared at Zhou Yuan in thought.
She sensed that Lu Wen was up to something.
“This is getting too dangerous. You shouldn’t get involved any further,” Jin Shi said.
Lu Wen, if he was accurate in his assumption, should have held Su Su as a prisoner.
He could amass leverage over Luo Ying and Sirius.
Jin Shi could not see what else he wanted to accomplish.
Zhou Yuan met Luo Ying’s gaze. ” Did Lu Wen do anything else? Do you know him or have you spoken to him?
“He’s such a conceited youngster. He threw six million to buy us out of Prague and also paid off Su Su’s debts. Damn kid even had a gun.” Zhou Yuan clenched his jaw tightly..
