As he said this, he seemed to be lost in longing and memories. Then, as if he had thought of something hateful, his expression suddenly turned ferocious.
"She was so wonderful, but... but Lu Huairen still sacrificed her for his own selfish desires, just to gain the inheritance right of the Lu family's property. He didn't hesitate to send her to her doom with his own hands. He has long been unworthy of living. Now that he's finally dead, he should go to the eighteenth level of hell!"
Yan Xia was shocked by his crazy appearance. It was really hard to believe. If she hadn't been mentally prepared, it would have been difficult for her to associate the man in front of her with the gentle and elegant Third Master Lu she usually knew.
Yan Xia said, "He's your elder brother, and his wife is your sister - in - law."
"I don't have such a heartless elder brother." Third Master Lu interrupted her sharply. "He had a constant stream of romances throughout his life and never really married her. To him, Su Xian was just a nameless mistress kept outside. But Su Xian was still willing. He couldn't give a woman a proper name but flirted everywhere outside, breaking her heart. Tell me, doesn't such a man deserve to die?"
Su Xian was Lu Qianzhou's mother. Her full name was Lin Su Xian, a very nice and gentle name.
Yan Xia looked at him calmly.
"Is that why you killed him?"
"It's not just that! Do you know what he did?" Third Master Lu angrily slapped the table and paced back and forth. "In order to inherit the Lu family's property and strengthen his own power, he actually allowed those big shots to drug Su Xian, abuse her, and even take videos of her. After that, Su Xian left with Lu Qianzhou and wanted to seek justice in court. Those big shots were afraid that the matter would be exposed and affect their futures, so they staged a car accident and killed her on the spot. Only in this way could they feel at ease."
Third Master Lu was breathing heavily. It was obvious that he was extremely angry. Even after all these years, his anger still lingered.
"What did Lu Huairen do? He chose to let the matter rest and bowed to those people. If it weren't for me protecting Lu Qianzhou all these years, do you think he could have lived safely until now?"
Yan Xia felt cold all over.
She knew that in the business world, it was often a man's battlefield, and women could only become playthings for men.
That woman named Lin Su Xian had sacrificed her whole life just because she loved the wrong man.
She had met Lu Huairen once. Although the man was in his fifties or sixties, he was still well - maintained. It was obvious that he must have been a handsome man who could turn heads when he was young. With his good family background and his amorous nature, it was no wonder so many women were eager to throw themselves at him.
"Among those people back then, Wang Keding was one, and your father was another!" Lu Huaili sneered. "None of them is innocent. They are all the murderers of Su Xian!"
Yan Xia already knew this. The video Third Master Lu showed her last time was enough to prove it.
Yan Xia felt a tightness in her chest. Before, she had been determined to find out the truth behind it and would never give up until she investigated it clearly by herself. But now she knew that there was such a bloody truth behind it.
"Even so, the men involved in the video are all dead. Why don't you stop? You've hurt so many innocent people!"
Third Master Lu seemed to have heard a funny joke. He looked at Yan Xia coldly and asked her aggressively, "Innocent? Among those who knew about and were involved in this matter back then, who can claim to be innocent? Was Lu Huairen innocent? He has lived a cowardly life for so many years. He should have gone to hell to accompany Su Xian long ago!"
His crazy appearance made Yan Xia think he might be crazy.
He had done so much and planned for so long. His ultimate wish was to kill Lu Huairen, the heartless man.
Yan Xia's eyelashes fluttered. She looked at Lu Huaili and suddenly thought of Lu Qianzhou. "What's Lu Qianzhou's fault? He lost his mother at such a young age. He's a victim, but you didn't even spare him."
Didn't he always claim that they were more like father and son than father and son? What kind of father would be so cruel to his own child?
She didn't know if Lu Qianzhou now knew that the final culprit was Third Master Lu. Yan Xia couldn't imagine how sad he would be when he heard in prison that the Third Uncle he had always trusted was the one who had been harming him.
"He's the one who deserves to die the most!" Third Master Lu shouted sharply.
He had been pacing in the office. Finally, he stood behind Yan Xia and put one hand on the back of the chair.
"Do you know how those people got the chance? Lu Huairen took Lu Qianzhou away on his birthday, saying he would celebrate it for him and asked Su Xian to go to the hotel to find him. She obeyed his words and went, but what awaited her was a glass of drugged water and those beasts!"
Yan Xia tightened her hands. She felt a sense of loss in her heart, as if something was blocking it. The scene involuntarily appeared in her mind.
That gentle woman, full of love for her son and husband, went to the hotel to celebrate her son's birthday. But she never expected that the man she loved the most would personally push her into hell. For power and profit, he pushed her into the bottomless pit of hell.
Maybe out of love for her son, she decided to live on and seek justice for herself. But those people controlled her every move. When they found it was too late to stop her, they simply staged a so - called accidental car accident and took her life.
This was why Lu Qianzhou never celebrated his birthday and was afraid and terrified when he saw a cake.
Over the years, he must have been blaming himself in his heart.
If it hadn't been for his birthday, his mother wouldn't have gone out to celebrate it for him, and such a thing wouldn't have happened.
If it weren't for Lu Qianzhou and Third Master Lu never giving up and seeking justice for her, this matter might have been buried in people's hearts forever and never seen the light of day.
Yan Xia felt very sad, powerless about human nature and pity for Lin Su Xian.
But when that incident happened, like Lu Qianzhou, she was just a child of a few years old. She couldn't seek justice for her and could do nothing.
In the first half of Lu Qianzhou's life, he only hoped to grow up quickly and seek justice for his mother.
"Tell me! Don't these people deserve to die?" Lu Huaili asked her.
Yan Xia pulled herself out of the sad mood.
"I understand that you hate those men who hurt Lin Su Xian, but this matter has nothing to do with Lu Qianzhou in essence. He's a victim!"
Yan Xia looked back at him and frowned. "But I don't understand. Even Lu Huairen has nothing to say. Why do you care so much about Lin Su Xian's experience? You've even planned for so many years just to seek justice for her. What's your relationship with her?"
Was he an admirer of Lin Su Xian?
Was he just unable to express his love because of her identity?
Lu Huaili's mouth twitched.
"Because she was the only one in the world who gave me hope when I was in despair. Without her, I would have had no hope of living..."
