Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was a stage play!
What was it going to be about?
Lin Xuanyin’s heart fell as she looked at Old Master Lin by her side. “Dad, I have a bad feeling about this.”
“Yes, obviously,” Old Master Lin said darkly.
Lin Xuanyin didn’t dare speak another word.
“Old Master Lin, Miss Lin, please take a seat here.” At this moment, Butler Ye spoke up, and guided them to their seat behind Lu Jinwen.
This all happened too fast for Old Master Lin and Lin Xuanyin to prepare themselves, and they could only force themselves to sit down.
The curtains rose slowly...
A girl in red appeared on the stage, her eyes wandering seductively. She lowered her head as she wrote something down on a slip of paper.
“Lu Jinwen, I’ll be waiting in Bangkok 1 for you tomorrow. If you don’t show up, I won’t like you anymore.”
The girl was muttering to herself, her beautiful voice slightly coquettish. She then passed this slip of paper to a messenger.
As he set off to deliver the message, he stopped in his tracks halfway there and looked around warily, before taking out a pen and unfurling the paper, changing Bangkok ‘1’ to ‘7’.
With a bang, Lu Jinwen suddenly got out of his seat. In his hurry, he knocked over the fruit platter on the table, which crashed onto the floor with a resounding noise that seemed to echo throughout the room.
Old Master Lin and Lin Xuanyin’s pupils contracted. What was going on? It was all over. The actual events all those years ago had been revealed through this stage play, which had re-enacted everything in front of Lu Jinwen.
Lu Jinwen’s deep eyes immediately turned red, as his eyes stayed riveted to the scene on the stage, his chest rising and falling rapidly.
The past came flooding back all at once, consuming him. After a while, he turned around and left.
“Jinwen, where are you going? Don’t leave!” Lin Xuanyin quickly blocked Lu Jinwen’s path.
“You!” Lin Xuanyin’s expression turned extremely ugly.
She... She had nothing left.
She had divorced Lu Jinwen for the heart transplant. And now even that was all a sham!
Now she knew. The moment Lin Xuanji stepped into the Capital with her daughter and son in hand, she had already set the trap in motion.
It wasn’t Lin Xuanji intention to use Lu Jinwen as a knife. It wasn’t her intention to use Lu Jinwen at all. It was enough for her to use Lin Xuanji.
Lin Xuanji really was both beautiful and intelligent! She had set a trap, and caught everyone in it.
Lin Xuanji!
“Where is Xuanji? I want to see Xuanji! Xuanyin is her biological sister. Why is she treating her sister like this!” Old Master Lin shouted angrily.
Tang Mo’er raised her beautiful brows as her bright eyes landed on Old Master Lin. “Old Master, I’m sorry but my mom doesn’t wish to see you. But she does have a few words for you. She wants me to tell you that the Lin Family is going to die with you. The Lin Family will soon be buried.”
The Lin Family would soon be buried?
Old Master Lin trembled in shock. He recalled that many years ago, when Xuanji and Xuanyin were just born, he had invited a monk to tell their fortune.
The monk hadn’t taken notice of Xuanyin at all, and pointed straight at Xuanji with a smile. He said that she was destined to become rich and dignified beyond belief. To have her by his side would bring great prosperity to his entire family, but could also mean the destruction of his lineage.
After all these years, Old Master Lin still remembered the monk’s words, and had always been wary of Xuanji.
Xuanji had been both talented and beautiful since she was young and many men had fallen for her. The Young Master of the Lu Family, which controlled the Capital, and Jun Mosheng, the Young Master from Karghalik had both been head over heels for her. Gu Tianling, the Young Master of the Gu Family had also been smitten with her. She really was like a goddess.
But she had also begun to disobey him, just like the monk had said. Because he was fearful of her, he started ruining her slowly.
Was it really true that fate could not be changed, and she was really going to destroy the entire Lin Family?
Old Master Lin collapsed onto the floor.
“Mo’er.” At this moment, the young actress in the play, Li Ruo, walked over and handed the script over to Tang Mo’er. “Mo’er, why does this script have four pages? Two of them contain the script for the play, but why are the last two empty?”
Tang Mo’er took the script over and flipped to the last two pages. Her red lips curving into a smile, she said, “Because you’ve only acted out half the play.”
Half of the events surrounding Bangkok 1 all those years ago hadn’t been acted out yet, so it was still empty.
