Zhao Youlin was stunned when she heard that. She didn’t expect Lu Xiangtian to be so thick-skinned. He could even spare the energy to provoke Mu Tingfeng yet again.

Mu Tingfeng naturally caught on. He also knew that Lu Sizheng said this to provoke him, but knowing it was one thing, but feeling it was another, as expected… As expected, especially when it concerned Zhao Youlin, he was not going to take this lying down!

“For someone to warrant your time and attention, she much be very outstanding. However, no matter how outstanding she is, some people are already taken. One should be careful in the pursuit of courtship. I don’t like other men pestering my wife, and I don’t want to see your face here again. I hope that you will stay safe, and not let things get too ugly between us.”

After directly rebuking Lu Sizheng, Mu Tingfeng directly pulled Zhao Youlin away, leaving Lu Sizheng alone on the spot.

Lu Sizheng silently watched the two of them leave. The corners of his lips slowly curled up with a hint of schadenfreude.

“It’s okay. We’ll meet again soon. Anyway…” As Lu Sizheng spoke, he subconsciously looked up at the sky that was covered with dark clouds. “It’s been kept brewing long enough.”

“Don’t come down to the lobby in the future. I’ll call you when I get there.” Mu Tingfeng’s expression was indescribably wonderful. It was a twisted marriage of anger and worry.

Lu Sizheng and Lu Xiangtian were lurking about like vultures. Lu Shu seemed to have Zhao Youlin to the core. Even if Zhao Youlin wanted to be alone, there was nothing she could do. She had been pulled into the circle of the Lu family and could not get out for the time being.

“Alright.” Zhao Youlin was also annoyed by the harassment of the Lu family members. However, other than that, she was more concerned about the veiled threats and information Lu Sizheng had let slip earlier.

“Lu Xiangtian seems to have really taken my words seriously and took some action after he went home. Although I don’t know what he did, Lu Sizheng has come to probe for information. It must not be a small matter. Our previous speculations may soon come clear.”

Mu Tingfeng could sense the uneasiness hidden in Zhao Youlin’s heart. He tightened his grip on Zhao Youlin to comfort her.

“No matter what the result is, no matter what decisions you make, I will support it.” He may not be able to match Lu Xiangtian’s sheer power and resources from the underworld, but if they really went all out… Lu Xiangtian will not have an easy time. If the Mu Family and the Su Family went all out, it was in everyone’s best interest that it did not come to that.

Zhao Youlin nodded. She held Mu Tingfeng’s hand and looked at the sky outside. Her mind was filled with emotions similar to Lu Sizheng’s. It was going to be chaotic, regardless of how things ended up.

Just as Zhao Youlin and the others had expected, chaos had truly begun. Three days after Lu Xiangtian made up his mind to perform another paternity test, the documents arrived at his table.

The butler and Lu Xiangtian were the only ones who knew that another test had been conducted. Lu Xiangtian’s personal doctor had carried things out discreetly. On top of that, the two of them had not even shared anything with their personal doctor. From the beginning to the end… the personal doctor never knew whose DNAs were being involved. This ensured the accuracy of the test to the greatest extent and also prevented some people from secretly manipulating it.

Lu Xiangtian looked at the last line of the document with a cold face. Conclusion: the two people are not related.

The old butler stood at the side and could clearly feel the chill surging out from Lu Xiangtian’s body. His eyes subconsciously glanced at the document in Lu Xiangtian’s hand. His face turned pale and he could not help but sigh in his heart. Another bloody storm was bound to happen. Some people were destined to be unlucky.

With a loud bang, the glass cup in front of Lu Xiangtian was the first casualty. It crashed heavily on the ground and shattered into pieces.

The glass cup did not even have time to touch the ground before Lu Xiangtian’s arm moved again. The precursor to the storm began on his table as more things followed.

The old butler stood aside in fear, but he did not dare to break his silence.

After Lu Xiangtian had vented his anger, not much was left on the table.

The old butler saw that Lu Xiangtian was almost done, so he summoned his courage and called out in a low voice.

“Get someone to call Lu Shu over. You must bring her over personally, no matter what you do.”

The old butler’s eyes turned cold when he heard this. He said respectfully, “Rest assured, master. I’ll definitely get someone to invite the Missus over.”

He no longer gave her a title but was referring to her by name alone. This was enough to explain Lu Xiangtian’s attitude. This time, Miss Lu was going to pay a heavy price for her deceit.

For a moment, the two men stewed in their own thoughts. One lamented about how fate had played tricks on them, while the other was thinking about Lu Shu. They wondered. How would they deal with Lu Shu after she came over so that they could vent their anger. How would they forced Lu Shu to reveal her true purpose of impersonating his daughter after she came over?

The two of them, who were immersed in their own thoughts, did not notice that the gardener who was digging the soil outside had heard the commotion in the hall. He immediately turned around and ran to a corner to make a call.

The moment the call connected, the gardener spoke excitedly. “Hello, sir? Yes, the master is already…”

At that time, Lu Shu was still completely unaware of her dangerous situation. Li Yan had not returned home for a few days, causing her mood to sink to a critical point.

At first, she had wanted to give Li Yan the cold treatment for a few days so that he would realize the reality and know that the Zhao Youlin, Ms. Zhao, and officer Zhao were just like moons hanging over the toad in the well, him. She was like a flower in the mirror, and she was the only real thing in his life. The only one who truly belonged to him was her, and only she could accompany him through every second of the future, night after night.

She did not expect Li Yan to be so stubborn. If she ignored him, he seemed only too happy to play along. He had even cut off the connection between them. This made Lu Shu gnash her teeth in anger.

On the seventh day of the Cold War, or rather, her perspective of a Cold War, Lu Shu finally could not hold it in anymore and took the initiative to look for Li Yan.

The department Lu Shu and Li Yan worked in was actually only separated by a corridor. Generally speaking, they were working under the same roof and wouldn’t see each other even if they looked up or down.

However, over the past week, the two of them had deliberately avoided each other, so even though they were only separated by a wall, they never once saw each other. Whenever they heard news about each other, they would hear it from someone else’s mouth. This was the first time Lu Shu and Li Yan were meeting after a long while.
