Just when Lin Xuan thought she was out of trouble, the police showed up at her door again and forcibly took her into custody. This time, Lin Xuan was truly terrified.
"Wh - what do you want to do!?" she shrieked.
"According to the information provided by the criminal, you're the mastermind behind this. So, please come with us to the police station," the officer replied.
Lin Xuan was extremely afraid of the police. She struggled desperately and shouted, "No! I'm the granddaughter of Lord Yama. Do you know what you're doing? If you dare to disrespect me, I'll have my grandfather fire all of you. You won't be able to make a living in the imperial capital!"
However, no one paid any heed to her words. She was directly locked up in the interrogation room.
"What was your motive?" The police officer's eyes were sharp, and his words were full of authority. Lin Xuan couldn't withstand the panic in her heart and the relentless interrogation.
She was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
Just then, the Wu family arrived. It was Wu Shiwen and Jin Qiao. They walked in arm - in - arm. When they saw Lin Xuan, they showed nothing but disdain.
"We're here to bail her out," Wu Shiwen said coldly.
The policemen looked at each other. Finally, they paid one million yuan to get Lin Xuan out.
"Lin Xuan, don't forget your place. You've brought shame to our Wu family. If you do anything to damage the family's reputation again, don't blame me for being harsh," Jin Qiao sneered.
Lin Xuan hung her head, not daring to say a word. These two people knew her real identity. If she was exposed, all her luxurious life would be gone.
"Come on, come on. Don't say that. There are so many people here. If we're discovered, it won't look good," Wu Shiwen said.
Jin Qiao let out a cold snort and then walked away quickly.
Lin Xuan followed them silently. Wu Shiwen came to her side, put his arm around her waist, and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry. You'll be okay."
Lin Xuan immediately showed a smile and whispered, "Mmm, I trust you, dear."
These three words made Wu Shiwen go weak at the knees. He pinched her waist.
"You little minx. Wait for me tonight," he said.
Lin Xuan sneered with a hint of a smile. She was determined that in the end, the entire Wu family would be hers!
When Feng Yu learned that Lin Xuan was safe and sound, she felt a bit bored. Looking at Sister Wang, who was well - settled, she said, "Are you relieved now?"
Sister Wang nodded quickly. "Thank you so much!"
Feng Yu waved her hand and told Sister Wang to go about her business.
As she hadn't had a good rest or relaxation for several days, she decided to go shopping with Kelly.
When they arrived at the high - end market, Kelly was dizzy from all the shopping. When she saw the price of a dress, she hesitated for a long time and was reluctant to buy it.
"You like it?" Feng Yu asked.
Kelly shook her head quickly. "No, no."
"Salesperson, wrap it up," Feng Yu said, ignoring Kelly's words. She had the dress that Kelly had taken a fancy to wrapped up and then gave it to Kelly.
Kelly was extremely touched. Her eyes were filled with gratitude as she looked at Feng Yu.
"Boss, you're so good to me!"
"As my right - hand assistant, this is what you deserve," Feng Yu said.
Hearing this, Kelly wiped away her tears.
Just as they were chatting and laughing, they noticed Lin Xuan not far away.
At this moment, Lin Xuan was being held around the waist by Wu Shiwen. Wu Shiwen was flirting with her, and Lin Xuan looked shy.
When Kelly saw this scene, her eyes widened in disbelief. She looked at Feng Yu, unable to speak.
"This... this is so... so..." Kelly stammered.
Feng Yu was also a bit surprised. Finally, she murmured, "The rich and famous really have a chaotic life."
Hearing this, Kelly seemed to remember something. "Boss, have you heard about Lin Xuan's former foster parents?"
"So what?"
"I heard that after they got a large sum of money, they indulged in drinking, gambling, and all sorts of vices. They've also accumulated a lot of debts. Moreover, I found out that Lin Xuan has been secretly subsidizing them."
"What does that prove? After all, her foster parents did raise her," Feng Yu said.
Kelly shrugged and couldn't help but complain, "I don't think Lin Xuan has the air of a noble. She might be a fake."
Feng Yu shook her head helplessly and didn't say anything else.
Just then, Lin Xuan looked up slightly. When she saw Feng Yu and Kelly, she was stunned. She never expected to meet Feng Yu here.
If Feng Yu spread this scene, the consequences would be very serious!
"Dear, I saw that bitch Feng Yu!" Lin Xuan's shrill voice rang out. Wu Shiwen looked up and, sure enough, he spotted Feng Yu in the crowd at once.
Feng Yu was so beautiful that it was hard for him not to be attracted.
"Don't worry. She definitely won't dare to do anything," he said.
Lin Xuan clenched her fists tightly. Seeing the way Wu Shiwen looked at Feng Yu, she wished Feng Yu would disappear completely.
This woman made her feel threatened.
"Xuan'er, let's go and meet them," Wu Shiwen said.
Then he dragged Lin Xuan towards Feng Yu. Lin Xuan's face was extremely ugly.
This old man! Did he want others to know about their secret relationship?
Feng Yu and Kelly didn't really want to pay attention to them and continued shopping in the clothing store.
When Feng Yu picked up a dress and examined it carefully, Wu Shiwen suddenly appeared in front of her. He said to the salesperson beside him, "Wrap this dress up and give it to this young lady."
Feng Yu looked up and saw Wu Shiwen and Lin Xuan. She remained calm.
"So it's the second master of the Wu family and... your niece, Miss Xia Ling. What are you two doing here?" Feng Yu asked with a puzzled look on her face.
Wu Shiwen was extremely infatuated with Feng Yu.
The salesperson immediately handed the wrapped - up dress to Feng Yu, but Feng Yu refused. "Give it to the lady beside you instead."
Hearing this, Lin Xuan was stunned. What did Feng Yu mean!?
The salesperson smiled at Lin Xuan and said, "Madam, this is a gift from your husband."
"No... no, he's my uncle!" the salesperson took a good look at Lin Xuan and then nodded meaningfully.
Wu Shiwen was really interested in Feng Yu. He glanced at Lin Xuan and then said slowly, "Just accept the dress. Wait for me outside."
Lin Xuan naturally didn't dare to say anything, but she still clenched her fists tightly when she left.
When she went outside, Lin Xuan came up with an idea. She showed a smug smile, took out her phone, took a photo of Wu Shiwen and Feng Yu, and then sent it to Jin Qiao.
"Come quickly. Feng Yu is trying to seduce Wu Shiwen!"
When Jin Qiao received this message, how could she control her anger? She immediately grabbed something and rushed towards the location.
Wu Shiwen reached out and grabbed Feng Yu's hand. Feng Yu forcefully broke free, and he let out a scream of pain. Feng Yu casually flung his hand away and said coldly, "You'd better not have any bad ideas about me."
