Chapter 368: Why, Is Young Master Lu Here To Laugh At Me?

Speaking of Lu Shaoming, Zhou Zhilei’s crazed look quickly calmed down. “Hah…haha,” she laughed.

“Zhilei, what’s wrong with you? Why are you crying and laughing?” Kong Lan was afraid that Zhou Zhilei had gone mad.

“Mom, do you know who caused me to be like this?”

“Of course; it was that pervert Tang Xueli.”

“No, Tang Xueli is just a pervert, but Lu Shaoming is the devil. He pushed me into the abyss, step by step!”

Kong Lan was shocked. “Zhilei, what are you talking about?”

Zhou Zhilei pulled Kong Lan’s arm, and her eyes were full of malicious intent. Her pale face was distorted by hatred. She gritted her teeth and said, “Mom, this is the result of Lu Shaoming’s plots! As early as a month and a half ago, he used Tang Sitian to drug me. It’s ridiculous that I still wanted to use Tang Sitian to anger Ning Qing. But Lu Shaoming’s plan was to use Tang Sitian to deal with me.

“Lu Shaoming provoked and destroyed the relationship between me and Tang Xueli. He knew so clearly what Tang Xueli’s weakness was. He manipulated Tang Xueli and let Tang Xueli deal with me.

“Mom, do you know, Lu Shaoming set up a trap to fake his death. Before he faked his death, he asked a man to rape me and sent the video to Tang Xueli. Tang Xueli saw the video and took me away. That night, he rewarded me to his men. Lu Shaoming disappeared for half a month, and I was tortured for that time. Everything I’ve suffered in this half a month was because of him!”

Kong Lan clenched her fists after hearing that. With hatred, she said, “How could this happen! Does Young Master Lu have no regard for the friendship between the Lu and Zhou families?”

At this time, a knock sounded. Zhou Dayuan appeared at the door. Behind him stood Zhou Zhilei’s doctor and nurse.

Zhou Dayuan was not a doctor in this hospital, but the name “Zhou Dayuan” has resounded throughout the entire medical industry, and he had a high reputation both at home and abroad. Therefore, Zhou Zhilei’s operation was done by Zhou Dayuan with the attending physician. The attending physician admired Zhou Dayuan’s talent very much.

The nurse came in and helped Zhou Zhilei onto the bed. The attending physician examined Zhou Zhilei. Kong Lan came to Zhou Dayuan with her fists clenched. She coldly said, “You come out.”

Zhou Dayuan glanced at Zhou Zhilei in bed, nodded politely to the attending physician, then turned around.

They stood at the entrance of the corridor. Kong Lan’s face was cold. She looked at Zhou Dayuan without any warmth. Her expression was only full of blame and resentment. “Since Lu Shaoming’s plane crash and return to T City, you have been accompanying him. For more than a month, Lu Shaoming has been dealing with your sister. I don’t believe that you did not realize his plans. Your sister is now disabled and ruined. Is that what a brother should do? Why didn’t you help Zhilei?”

Zhou Dayuan looked at Kong Lan. The face before him was unfamiliar. From the time he went to England to study at the age of 18 to the age of 32, the number of times he had met her was probably less than 20 times.

She had never flown to Britain to see him. She had at most called him during the Spring Festival, but she had never been so welcoming and warm as to ask him to go home and have a reunion dinner.

She had also known that he had been back in T City for a long time, but she didn’t even care about him.

Oh, there was some concern for him, regarding his marriage, to select the most suitable daughter-in-law for the Zhou family.

She had probably forgotten that he was her son.

“Mom, it’s not that I don’t want to help Zhilei, but that I don’t have the ability. I’ve tried to talk sense into her, but unfortunately, her love for Shaoming had turned into hatred, and she had chosen a path of no return. Regarding Shaoming’s case, it was indeed Zhilei’s wrongdoing. She almost killed Shaoming by collaborating with Tang Xueli. You don’t know what Shaoming and Ning Qing missed. Everyone should pay for their mistakes.”

“Enough!” Kong Lan’s face grew colder and colder. “I’m not standing here to listen to you lecture me about Zhilei’s mistakes. Pay the price? How can you say that? Is Zhilei not miserable now? Don’t you care about your sister at all?”

Zhou Dayuan closed his eyes and opened them again. “Mom, I’ll go. I’ll come to check on Zhilei regularly.”

They can’t see eye to eye, so even half a word was too much.

“You!” Kong Lan was trembling all over with anger. She Zhou Dayuan. “Dayuan, what’s your attitude towards me? I’m your mother. I can finally see that since you dated Jian Han 12 years ago, you no longer respect the Zhou family. Your heart has been seduced and led astray by that seductress.”

“Mom!” Zhou Dayuan’s gentle face showed unprecedented seriousness. He interrupted her. “I’m going to tell you one last time — don’t insult her like that. You don’t have the right.”

Zhou Dayuan turned and left.

Kong Lan kept saying, “Dayuan, what kind of poison did that woman drug you with? Have you forgotten how she used to treat you? When you were in prison, she abandoned you. It was me. It was your father who paid someone to get you out. Where was that woman then?”

Zhou Dayuan ignored her completely and walked away.

Kong Lan was almost vomiting blood from anger.

Just then, there was a voice behind her. “Doctor Jian.”

Kong Lan looked back. Jian Han stood behind her. The woman was in a white coat and had a beautiful face. She hadn’t seen this woman for a few years. She had matured.

She had been called by a nurse walking past her just now.

Kong Lan looked at her and quickly laughed. Much as she wanted to, one really can’t avoid her enemy. She looked up and down at Jian Han with contempt. “Miss Jian, long time no see. You are now a…doctor?”

Jian Han stood up straight. She placed one of her hands in the pocket of her white coat and dropped another hand holding documents down beside her. She was expressionless and did not speak.

Her indifference did not affect Kong Lan’s good mood. “Miss Jian, I mentioned you to my son just now…”

“Mmm,” Jian Han said, lifting her lips and laughing coldly. “I heard it. Mrs. Zhou, you know where I was at that time.”

Kong Lan froze, but she quickly recovered. She went up to Jian Han and murmured, “I never believed that you were sincere to my son! But I heard that your parents’ train derailed, and they died six years ago?”

Jian Han’s entire body suddenly started shaking. The deep scar in her heart was ripped apart so mercilessly that her eyes were instantly moist.

Kong Lan was laughing, “Miss Jian, I heard you’re with my son again? Tsk tsk… The love that you’ve got by stepping on your parents’ death is noble indeed. Does it feel good? Did you ever think of your parents when you and my son were entangled with each other? They must feel disappointed.”

Jian Han’s lips were trembling, her disguise had been torn apart so easily. She felt as if all her blood had run cold.

She knew that she would go to the 18th level of hell after she died.

Right then, Zhou Dayuan asked the nurse where Dr. Jian was. He found her.

At a glance he saw his mother standing with Jian Han. The woman was crying.

He understood the woman. She was proud and aloof in her heart. She never cared about other people’s opinions for those who she doesn’t care about.

She was strong in front of outsiders, especially her enemies.

For the first time in all these years, he had seen her cry in front of others, so helpless and desperate.

“Jian Han.” He strode towards her with his long legs.

Jian Han looked up and saw him. She quickly wiped her tears with her little hand, then turned and ran away.

“Jian Han!” Zhou Dayuan chased after her.

But Kong Lan blocked his way. “Dayuan, you should end it with her as soon as possible. I can tell you clearly, I will never allow her to join the Zhou family.”

Zhou Dayuan watched Jian Han’s figure disappear. He stopped and looked at Kong Lan. “Alright, please close your Zhou family’s door then. We will never knock on it.”

Zhou Dayuan ran away.

Kong Lan: “…”

…

In the ward

The doctors and nurses were gone. Zhou Zhilei was leaning on the bed alone. Her eyes were empty and she looked at her missing right leg.

Just now, the doctor had examined her. A nurse saw her skin. The nurse looked as nauseous as if she had eaten a fly.

Hah…hah…she, Zhou Zhilei had lived to this point.

She was laughing at herself when a figure appeared in her peripheral vision. She looked up — Lu Shaoming had arrived.

The man had on a light blue striped shirt and was as handsome as jade. He was leaning against the doorframe lazily with both hands in his pockets as he looked at her with a light gaze.

Zhou Zhilei’s heart was cold. How can she not feel the change in this man? He always wore black and cold-toned clothes when he was under the love spell. His hard and firm face wouldn’t have a hint of a smile. Even when he laughed, his smile would be as sharp as a knife.

But today, he was in a good mood. His entire body seemed full of life. Even if he was not laughing, he was still in a good mood. Even his shirt was light blue.

She could imagine that he could not wait to find Ning Qing after he had taken care of his love spell. He would surely be entangled with her that night.

Only that woman could satisfy him, please him, and influence him so much.

“Why, is Young Master Lu here to laugh at me?” Her vocal cords were damaged, and even after treatment, she still sounded like a 60-year-old woman. She could never recover.

Lu Shaoming’s thin lips lifted upward and his voice was mellow. “I’m here to find Dayuan. Laugh at you? Hah, I’m not so idle.”

His light tone and sentence had humiliated her once again.

Zhou Zhilei was triggered. She clutched the sheets tightly in both hands and shouted, “Young Master Lu, I’m disabled now, neither ghost or human. Are you satisfied?”

Lu Shaoming’s deep eyes swiveled to her. “If it weren’t for your brother and your grandfather, I would not have spared your life.”

Zhou Zhilei sneered, “Young Master Lu makes it sound so good. Didn’t you spare my life so that I would suffer, and be better off dead?”

She only knew how scheming and cruel he was now. Putting aside how strong and cruel he was when he dealt with Tang Xueli, it was clear from this matter alone. If she had died, how could he have maintained the relationship with her brother and grandfather?

But she was better off dead than like this.

He had taken advantage of every avenue in the open and in the dark.

Sure enough, he was the winner of life.

What was the use of living now? Her whole life had been ruined. That half-month prison would be a nightmare that she would never forget.

Lu Shaoming laughed. “So what if you’re better off dead? Why weren’t you afraid when you provoked me?” He closed his eyes as his voice filled with pain. “When I watched that silly woman shed tears for me, when I knew she had to go to the UK to have ocular keratoplasty alone, when I had to be restrained to the seven hours when I wanted to touch her, I thought to myself: Very good, you guys did very well. The opponents that I, Lu Shaoming, would never take seriously in my whole life have finally made me take them seriously.”
