Chapter 394: Chapter 392: Starting a Company 3_1

Otherwise, if she had to do everything by herself, she’d be worked to death!

Seeing Xia Ningxing stare at him with an "ill-intentioned" look, Lu Fan’s scalp went numb for he thought she was warning him. He quickly made a zipping motion across his lips, signalling that he wouldn’t tell a soul.

She was now his sister-in-law, after all. Even if it really were her doing, he would keep the secret!

To think she doubted his character.

"What are you doing?" Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but give him a baffled glance.

Could he possibly have ADHD?

Lu Fan thought she was tapping him on the shoulder, and immediately shook his head: "Nothing, nothing."

After saying that, he squeezed his eyes at Xia Ningxing again to reassure her that he would definitely keep this matter to himself.

Xia Ningxing twisted her brow, utterly speechless.

Diagnosis complete, this guy actually had ADHD!

But no matter, as long as it wasn’t a terminal brain disease, it was fine!

...

At this moment, not only had Wei Wenwen’s reputation been ruined, but she had also been arrested by the authorities, suspecting that she was responsible for Lu Wenxuan’s death.

"I didn’t! This has nothing to do with me!"

As she was being put into the car, Wei Wenwen cried so heart-wrenchingly that even through the television screen, one could feel her despair and disbelief.

It was supposed to be Xia Ningxing who met with disgrace and fell into the abyss last night!

So why had it turned out to be her?

And, moreover, she didn’t become aware of it until much later, but by then it was already too late...

And for some inexplicable reason, Lu Wenxuan had died.

Now, she couldn’t clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River!

After seeing the news on TV, Mr. Wei and Mrs. Wei almost fainted.

"How could this be! How could this be!" Mrs. Wei seemed to have lost her mind, with bloodshot eyes and disheveled hair, she screamed in a collapsed and desperate state.

Her daughter! Her precious daughter!

How was she supposed to go on living now!

Mr. Wei wasn’t faring much better.

He couldn’t understand how their plan had failed. The people from S weren’t incompetent, so how could things have turned out this way!

Unless they were counter-schemed!

"Sir, you must find a way to save our daughter, she’s our only child!" cried Mrs. Wei as she threw herself at him, tears streaming down her face, clinging to his legs as if grasping a lifeline.

Mr. Wei was still in a state of profound shock, his lips trembling: "It’s already come to this, what can I do, what can I do..."

By now, probably everyone in the country knew...

What could he do?

What could he possibly do?

It’s not like he could go and eliminate everyone who knew about it, right?

Mrs. Wei hadn’t expected that he too would be out of ideas, and immediately began screaming: "This must be the Lu Family’s doing! I’ll go demand justice from them!"

"You stay right there!" Mr. Wei, still clinging to his last shred of reason, grabbed her: "Demand justice? You tell me what justice can you demand? Are you going to question them why your daughter wasn’t successful with her scheming, why they counter-schemed against Yoyo?"

"Enough! We can’t afford to provoke the Lu Family. Don’t make it worse, or I fear the next one could be..." me.

Before he could finish the last two words, Mr. Wei’s peripheral vision caught sight of several uniformed officers approaching.

He immediately broke out in a cold sweat, his lips trembling as he asked, "Is, is there something wrong?"

The officers got straight to the point, "Wei Zhonghou, you are implicated in... multiple charges, and now with conclusive evidence, you’re under arrest!"

As they spoke, the cruel, icy handcuffs clicked around Mr. Wei’s wrists.

Mr. Wei’s eyes widened in disbelief, his tall frame swayed twice, and had the officers not been holding him, he probably would have collapsed onto the ground by now.

He had been so secretive, how had it all come to light?

Not only was Wei Yoyo ruined, but he was doomed as well!

He deeply regretted the terrible idea he had given his daughter, thinking to use another to commit his dirty deed; yet now, it was clear he had inadvertently directed the blade upon himself!

Indeed, the saying goes: one who brings trouble upon themselves can’t blame others for their downfall!

In an instant, Mr. Wei seemed to age ten years, following the officers with vacant eyes.

"Sir!" Seeing the officers taking him away, Mrs. Wei quickly came forward with her swollen eyes, desperately trying to intervene, "You can’t take away my husband, you can’t... "

But she was powerless to stop them, and ultimately could only watch helplessly as Mr. Wei was taken away.

In the empty Wei residence, only Mrs. Wei was left collapsing in hysterical tears in the living room.

Her daughter disgraced and potentially saddled with the crime of murder.

Her husband...

Mrs. Wei was both shocked and terrified, her hands and feet cold as she picked up the phone to desperately seek help, to see if she could possibly bail out both father and daughter.

But those who used to fawn over the Wei Family now shunned them like the plague, hanging up the phone as soon as it rang without waiting for an answer.

As the proverb goes, ’When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter.’ And not just them, even the house servants and bodyguards started to pack their things with contemptuous glances and leave the Wei residence.

Nonsense, the Wei Family’s name would soon be mud, perhaps soon to be sealed off; leaving now meant they could still grab something on their way out, otherwise, they might not even receive their wages.

"Stop! All of you, stop!"

Mrs. Wei cried out in rage, yet not a single person listened.

The Wei residence instantly became deserted, with only Mrs. Wei seated in the living room.

However, Mrs. Wei quickly thought of a solution—she would beg the Lu Family for mercy!

As long as the Lu Family could cool their anger, as long as they could spare her husband and daughter, she was willing to kneel before them!

Just as Mrs. Wei was about to leave and seek them out, a madwoman suddenly barged into the house.

Lacking servants and bodyguards now, the woman had met no resistance on her way inside.

The woman’s eyes were bloodshot with hate, and she clutched a pair of scissors in her hand.

If Xia Ningxing had been there, she surely would have recognized her—it was Madam Zhao, the wife of the impostor Jianren.

"Wei Caifeng, I’m going to kill you! Your daughter killed my son, now pay with your life!"

Madam Zhao screamed with heart-wrenching ferocity, and without a second thought, she lunged at Mrs. Wei with the fruit knife.

Mrs. Wei, an unarmed woman, was terrified out of her wits and let out a series of piercing screams, wanting to dodge, but her feet were as if nailed to the floor, utterly immobile.

"Help! Someone help!"

Mrs. Wei instinctively let out a shrill cry for help, and then it was as if she remembered something, she quickly added:

"Madam Zhao, you madwoman, it wasn’t my daughter who killed your son, it was Xia Ningxing, she set up my daughter, if you want revenge you should find her...!"

Just as Mrs. Wei hoped these words might save her, it was too late—the fruit knife had already plunged in.

Blood burst forth in an instant.
