Chapter 183: Chapter 183 Two Clear

"Ah—" With a scream, Lu Man went completely silent, her head drooping lifelessly.

Wen Jingren pulled out the knife, casually wiped it clean, and looked at Lu Man’s corpse with disgust: "Someone, throw this cheap woman’s corpse at the gate of Second Young Master Li’s villa, return her to him."

Second Young Master Li was furious at the loss of Lu Man because he feared that this woman would spill some things that should not be mentioned.

She had done many unsavory things for Second Young Master Li, and if she were to confess, even without direct evidence, it would be enough for Second Young Master Li to spend a couple of days at the police station.

Moreover, who knows if this woman had any evidence of his wrongdoing in her hands?

Just as Second Young Master Li was about to have Dragon Slayer’s Han Qiao and Mountain Ghost take action, Li Rong came in with a strange expression on his face: "Second Young Master, Lu Man she... Lu Man she..."

Second Young Master Li was extremely anxious: "Just say it, what happened to Lu Man?"

Li Rong replied with helplessness: "You should see it for yourself."

"Hmph!" Second Young Master Li snorted angrily and strode out of the villa, only to see Lu Man’s corpse thrown at the villa’s front gate.

Lu Man was dead, her open eyes staring straight at the sky.

She had been stabbed in the abdomen, and the cut to her chest had been fatal, her upper body drenched in blood.

It was the first time Second Young Master Li had seen the body of someone he knew, and he couldn’t help feeling nauseous: "Ugh..."

Li Rong promptly asked, "Second Young Master, should we collect the body for her, or call the police to handle it?"

"Call the police," Second Young Master Li said through gritted teeth, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, "Anyway, she’s already dead, and it doesn’t matter whether we collect the body. If we don’t report it, we’ll have to carry the blame for this murder."

After sleeping in Shen Silin’s boudoir, Yang Yu was hazily awoken by Shen Silin’s voice.

"Mr. Wen, don’t be polite, I just gave you a piece of information, I didn’t do anything. You should be thankful to Yang Yu, he was the one who brought Lu Man back from Luo’s Chamber of Commerce’s cruise ship number three..."

Hearing Shen Silin talk like this, Yang Yu realized it was Wen Jingren on the phone.

He stretched lazily and climbed out of bed: "Mr. Shen, what exactly happened?"

After disconnecting the call, Shen Silin gave Yang Yu a slight smile: "Nothing much, I just reminded Wen Jingren that someone might try to snatch Lu Man, that’s all."

Shen Yan came in, speaking politely to Shen Silin: "Mr. Shen, I have just received news that a woman’s corpse was thrown at the door of the villa where Second Young Master Li resides, and Second Young Master Li has called the police."

"Heh, he is quick to shirk responsibility," Shen Silin commented, "Actually, to take revenge on Second Young Master Li, the best way isn’t to kill Lu Man, but to keep Lu Man alive. Let Second Young Master live in dread, fearing Lu Man might expose some of the disgusting things he’s done."

"I can understand Wen Jingren," Yang Yu said, "If it were me, I would do the same as Wen Jingren. There are plenty of opportunities to seek revenge on Second Young Master Li, but the killer of one’s child must be dealt with first."

Shen Silin looked at Yang Yu with a playful smile, making him feel uncomfortable: "Mr. Shen, what are you laughing at?"

"Nothing," Shen Silin smiled, "You first consider righteousness and put gains and losses second, that’s why I value you."

"Money is important, sure, but don’t we live to make life better for ourselves and our loved ones?" said Yang Yu, "If the money is gone, you can earn it back; but if a person is gone, they’re truly gone."

Yang Yu was just making a comment, but it seemed to have stirred Shen Silin’s memories of her own father, and she suddenly fell silent.

Yang Yu realized he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly apologized, "Mr. Shen, I’m sorry..."

"No need to apologize; you’ve done nothing wrong," Shen Silin said slowly. "The one who should apologize is the murderer who killed my father!"

Yang Yu’s gaze sharpened, "Mr. Shen, are you saying..."

"Yes, I have sufficient reason to suspect that the person who killed my father is either Shen Yueling or Shen Huiming," Shen Silin’s eyes grew progressively colder. "The day I free myself from the shadow of the Li Family will be the death knell for those two!"

Luo Family.

Slap!

Kneeling on the ground, Luo Ziyi received a slap from her grandfather. With a fierce look, Mr. Luo Sr. glared at her with bulging, dead fish-like eyes and barked sternly, "Luo Ziyi, do you realize your mistake?"

Around her, a large group of Luo Family members were watching Luo Ziyi.

Apart from her parents, everyone else had a look of schadenfreude.

Luo Ziyi offered no defense, "Grandfather, I have not been good, and I’m willing to accept any punishment."

"Very well." Mr. Luo Sr. looked at Luo Ziyi meaningfully. "The housekeeper from the Xia Family of Yanjing came to ask for your hand in marriage on behalf of the Xia Family, proposing an alliance with our Luo Family, so you will marry Xia Qing, the young master of the Xia Family."

"What?" Luo Ziyi’s face changed dramatically. "You want me to marry that loser Xia Qing?"

Just days ago in Tianhai City, Xia Qing caused trouble and even got arrested, ending up in quite a sorry state.

Luo Ziyi had heard about this incident and, of course, had also learned a bit about Xia Qing.

In her information, Xia Qing was nothing but a wastrel hollowed out by liquor and lust.

If it weren’t for his status as the eldest grandson, such a wastrel wouldn’t receive a second glance, whether within the Xia Family or cast out on the streets.

And now, her family actually wanted her to marry this piece of trash — how could she accept this?

"Hehe, precisely because he’s a wastrel, he’s easier to control," Mr. Luo Sr. sneered. "With your capabilities, if you were to become the wife of the Xia Family’s heir, the entire Xia Family would be at your fingertips. Isn’t that a good thing?"

"And then what?" Luo Ziyi looked at her grandfather with a cold smile. "I have to face a piece of garbage for a lifetime?"

"What else?" Mr. Luo Sr. glanced at Luo Ziyi. "You will have to marry someone anyway; it’s just a matter of maximizing the benefits."

Luo Ziyi said, "I have done so much for the Luo Family, all so I could make my own decisions in marriage, marry someone I love. This is my only request. Grandfather, do you think it’s too much to ask?"

Mr. Luo Sr. responded coldly, "As long as you are part of the Luo Family, you can’t make your own decisions about your marriage."

"Is that so." Luo Ziyi slowly got to her feet and looked at her grandfather calmly. "If that’s the case, as of today, I am no longer a member of the Luo Family. Everything related to the Luo Family has nothing to do with me anymore."

"What?" Including the cousins who disliked Luo Ziyi, everyone in the Luo Family was stunned by her decision. "Has she gone mad?"

Luo Ziyi’s father roared angrily, "Ziyi, what nonsense are you talking about? Apologize to your grandfather this instant!"

"I am not talking nonsense." Luo Ziyi was very calm. "Grandfather, thank you for the Luo Family’s care over the years. All the assets in my card, I will return to the Luo Family. This way, we can settle our accounts, is that acceptable?"
