Translator: Endless Fantasy Translation Editor: Endless Fantasy Translation
Lu Shu? What is she doing here? And moret importantly, why was she with a
big shot, who obviously came froma complicated background? Wasn’t she
already married to Li Yan? How was this man related to her?
That’s right. The girl who came with Lu Xiangtian and seemed really close to
him was Lu Shu! She used to work in the same police station as Zhao Youlin,
but they belonged to different squads.
Before Zhao Youlin could process everything, Jiang Wenfang’s words gave her
another shock.
Lu Xiangtian? This man was Lu Xiangtian? The legendary man who was said to
be the head of the underworld organizations in six provinces, who even had
contact with the Italian mafia, who was so powerful that even the police could
not catch him as they were not able to find any evidence of crime against him.
He was that Lu Xiangtian?
What is this guy, who has long been labeled as the SSS-level dangerous man
by the higher authority, doing here? Why does he look so close to the Su
family? Could it be that the Su family actually hasn’t quit the underworld
empire as rumored?
Questions popped up one after another in Zhao Youlin’s mind. She was so lost
in thoughts that she did not even hear Jiang Wenfang tell her to greet the man.
“Youlin, Youlin.” Seeing that Zhao Youlin was not responding, Jiang Wenfang
frowned and anxiously called her name several times.
Only then did Zhao Youlin collect herself and realize that everyone was staring
at her. She hastily said in an awkward manner, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Lu.”
“Lu, maybe this is her first time meeting a stranger. She’s a little bit nervous.
Please don’t take it to heart.” Seeing this, Jiang Wenfang hurriedly explained.
Lu Xiangtian’s stern gaze swept over Zhao Youlin. Then, he smiled slightly and
said, “I should’ ve given you a heads up before I came. I thought I wouldn’t scare
your guests after I changed my clothes, but I still gave them a scare in the end.
I should be the one apologizing”
Upon hearing what he said, Zhao Youlin did not answer. It was true that she
was shocked. She did not expect that she would meet the man, who could be
considered as her arch-enemy in her past life at a wedding. It was completely
normal that she was shocked.
However, if this guy here was really that Lu Xiangtian, why was Lu Shu with
him then? Could it be that Lu Shu was actually…
Zhao Youlin forcibly suppressed her doubts and inquiries. Her gaze went back
and forth between Lu Shu and Lu Xiangtian several times. Her eyes flickered a
little
Lu Shu had also noticed Zhao Youlin. In fact, from the first moment she saw
Zhao Youlin, her gaze never moved away from her.
Zhao Youlin… Zhao Youlin.. This woman had the same name as that woman! A
glint of coldness crossed Lu Shu’s eyes.
“It’s nothing, Lu. We are just so happy that you are here today. Why would we
mind about that?”
Lu Xiangtian smiled and did not dwell on the topic, instead he turned his gaze
to Lu Shu at his side. “Allow me to introduce you. This is my daughter, Lu Shu
Shu, say hi to these elders.”
Boom! Zhao Youlin felt his voice explode in her head. The blast was so
powerful that she almost lost her composure.
‘Lu Shu is Lu Xiangtian’s daughter? I can’t believe Lu Shu is Lu Xiangtian’s
daughter!
In fact, not just Zhao Youlin, Jiang Wenfang and Su Liqiang, the elders at
present froze on the spot as well because of this sudden and shocking
announcement from Lu Xiangtian.
It took them a long time to recover themselves. Jiang Wenfang asked stiffly,
“Lu, you have a daughter?”
Lu Xiangtian nodded with a light smile. He was not offended by Jiang
Wenfang’s question.
Jiang Wenfang gasped. “Is she really your daughter? I thought you’d never been
married? How did you suddenly have a grown-up daughter? Have you married
someone in secret? Why did you only bring your daughter today? Where is your
wife?”
The moment Jiang Wenfang said that, everyone present could clearly feel the
air around Lu Xiangtian go still for a moment. Once the gentle facade that he
put up was peeled off, what remained on him was the intimidating demeanor
of a man in power and the bloodthirsty aura that he cultivated with countless
lives that he took away.
Jiang Wenfang and Su Liqiang stood nearest to Lu Xiangtian, so naturally, the
sudden change of his mood affected them most deeply. Their expressions
changed instantly, especially Jiang Wenfang. She did not even understand what
she had said that caused this.
Could it be that the girl’s mother is a taboo? And she can’t even be mentioned?
Jiang Wenfang pondered over it for a while, and that was the only thing she
could come up with. A sense of insecurity washed over her in an instant.
Seeing that Lu Xiangtian’s face had darkened, Lu Shu imperceptibly took in everyone’s intense nervousness and worries. While she was gloating over it
internally, she put ona mournful expression and said in a sad tone, “Mrs. Su,
my mother. She passed away not long after she gave birth to me, so..
Jiang Wenfang could feel her stomach dropping. She finally understood the
reason LuXiangtian changed his attitude all of a sudden. It seemed that this
gir!’s mother must be very special to Lu Xiangtian. Otherwise, he would not
have dropped his pretense the second her mother was mentioned.
“T’m sorry. I didn’t know about that. I’m really sorry”
Lu Xiangtian had held prominent positions for a long time. His self-control
was a lot better than most people. Though the sudden mention of Lu Shu’s
mother had caught him off guard a little.
However, he quickly adjusted himself as his smile returned to his face. Though
after seeing his momentary outburst of hostility, they were now finding it
difficult to confuse the real him and the current him, who was smiling at them.
“It’s not your fault. I lost my composure. My daughter’s mom was my fiancé
who went through thick and thin with me when I was young, so there was
nothing wrong with you calling her my wife. Later, something bad happened,
and I failed to protect her. She had to go into exile while she was still pregnant.
I’ve been searching for her all these years, and God granted my wish. I finally
found her and my daughter four years ago, but unfortunately by then, she was
already…
Jiang Wenfang was slightly relieved. She smiled and teased, “Ive known you for
so many years, and I’ve never seen you fall for anyone before, let alone getting
married and starting a family. I’m really surprised to see you having a daughter
this age. It turns out that you have already found a womnan you love, and even
have a child with her. It’s such a happy event that you’ve found your daughter!
Congratulations.”
Lu Xiangtian smiled and did not answer her. A pair of seemingly gentle but
cold and indifferent eyes would only soften a little when he was looking at Lu
Shu. It showed how much he really loved his daughter, who he had just
reunited with.
Zhao Youlin stared at them in silence. The inexplicable emotion that emerged
in her eyes quickly settled down. Her hands subconsciously clenched into a
fist..
