Indulging Mrs. Lu

Chapter 580 - 578: Keep Your Woman in Check

For a whole five years!

Qin Huaixin could hardly imagine, if Xiao Qing hadn’t returned to the Empire, would they ever know she was still alive?

Just the thought of that possibility made Qin Huaixin unbearably sad. If that had really happened, she would never be able to escape the guilt for the rest of her life.

"Leng Yixing, keep your woman’s mouth shut, or I can’t guarantee I won’t do something when I get out," Leng Wanxi said.

This statement infuriated Leng Yixing, his chest heaving with anger, as if he was about to slap her to death if she dared say another word.

Seeing this, Qin Huaixin quickly pulled his clenched fist to herself, silently comforting him.

She looked at Leng Wanxi, "Leng Wanxi, you won’t live to see that day. Everyone outside now knows that you are linked to the incident from five years ago. You indirectly committed murder, and you can’t escape the law."

"I didn’t!" Leng Wanxi suddenly became agitated, roaring at them fiercely, which startled Qin Huaixin so much she leaned into Leng Yixing.

Leng Wanxi was quickly pushed back into her chair by a prison guard. Her emotions still ran high, and she fiercely glared at Qin Huaixin: "I kidnapped you, it was Lu Xiao who wanted to kill Lu Jinyang and Zhuang Shuqing without informing me beforehand! Also, Qin Huaixin, Zhuang Shuqing isn’t dead; she is Xiao Qing. So, based on this, you can’t convict Lu Xiao!"

"Sorry, everyone in the Empire knows that Lord Lu’s beloved wife died five years ago. The person who died was Zhuang Shuqing; Xiao Qing is Xiao Qing. Can you prove that Xiao Qing is Zhuang Shuqing?"

The answer is definitely no.

Five years ago, when Xiao Qing was still Zhuang Shuqing, she was an orphan who wouldn’t go to the hospital for ailments but would rather just buy some medicine from the pharmacy, leaving no medical records or documents about her.

Furthermore, only ashes were returned later, and the Lu Family had already scattered them into the sea.

So in a sense, there truly is no evidence of her death.

Leng Wanxi, having conducted a detailed investigation of everything about Lu Jinyang, naturally knew about these things concerning Xiao Qing.

She didn’t speak.

At this time, Leng Yixing seemed somewhat impatient.

For some reason, whenever he saw Leng Wanxi, he would think of his own birth mother, and that old man.

"Xin’er, it’s time to pick up Shuang’er."

Qin Huaixin nodded at him, softly saying, "Give me two more minutes." After speaking, she turned to Leng Wanxi, "Leng Wanxi, you have no parents, and even your only support is now inside, this is our last time visiting you, take care of yourself."

After these words, Qin Huaixin and Leng Yixing left.

It took a while for Leng Wanxi to recover her senses, her gaze somewhat vacant.

Was Lu Xiao really imprisoned as well?

If so, then she truly had lost her last support in life...

-

Before Qin Huaixin and Leng Yixing came to see Leng Wanxi, they had sent Leng Shuangshuang to Xiao Qing.

Together with a few others, including Gu Chen, they had arranged for dinner.

Having addressed Lu Xiao’s matter, Lu Jinyang spent roughly a week arranging the financial department’s affairs. Luckily, he had the foresight to hand over the false account book to Lu Xiao, and during the signing, he secretly switched the contract, preventing Lu Xiao from succeeding.

Now that everything here has settled, they planned to go to the United States to pick someone up.

Saying it was to pick someone up wasn’t entirely accurate. Lu Jinyang always wanted to know what happened after Xiao Anze took Xiao Qing back, so this trip was about uncovering all the details he couldn’t find over these five years.
