Yan Jue walked up to Tang Xiaomin and put a lollipop in her mouth.
"Here, have a candy, calm down."
…
Tang Xiaomin chewed on the lollipop in her mouth and said with some worry, "Self-defense isn't illegal, is it?"
Yan Jue dotingly wiped the bloodstains from her face and smiled.
"How could it be? They were all bad people, and you eliminated them for the good of the people."
Tang Xiaomin continued to eat her lollipop.
Lu Xing drove the truck, feeling completely lost.
He thought Young Master Yan had gone crazy again and insisted he come in person.
When he saw the corpses all over the ground, he was stunned for a moment.
Without a word, he opened the truck door and began loading the bodies one by one.
They were professionals at dealing with bodies.
Seeing the couple flirting beside him, Lu Xing couldn't help but step forward to interrupt.
"Young Master Yan, we need to hurry and clean up, otherwise there will be trouble."
Yan Jue nodded.
"I'll trouble you today. I'll call Zhong Li up tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xing was immediately delighted.
He had dreamed of someone coming to help him.
The world of the living was too exhausting, and he had been feeling overwhelmed lately.
Lu Xing drove the truck back and personally arranged for the cremation.
Afterward, he personally returned to the scene to clean up.
He was swamped with work.

The birthday cake Tang Xiaomin had prepared for Li Changchun was ruined. Su Dan Novel Network
Fortunately, Yan Jue liked sweets and specifically hired a pastry chef to rush and finish a cake before midnight.
After the celebration, Li Changchun got drunk and couldn't stay up, so he went to rest.
Yan Jue also left.
Zhou Xiaolan pulled Tang Xiaomin aside and said in the living room, "Xiaomin, what are you thinking now?"
"What am I thinking?"
"About that Young Master Yan. He's always coming to our house. Mom can see he's interested in you. What are your feelings for him?"
It was understandable that her parents were concerned about her marriage prospects.
"I'm only in my first year of university, there's no rush for these things."
"Oh dear, how can there be no rush? Good men are like shooting stars, once they're gone, they're gone. You have to seize the opportunity."
"In our time, by twenty, we already had children."
"Let's talk about it after graduation, Mom."
Zhou Xiaolan looked like she was disappointed.
"Mom knows you like someone, but you have to think about it, Mom and Dad can't be with you forever."
…
"You'll be alone for the rest of your life. How lonely will that be?"
"Mom..."
Tang Xiaomin couldn't help but smile.
"Why are you so biased towards him? You haven't known him for long, have you? Could it be that Mom has taken a liking to him?"
"I'm doing this for you. I think he's very good."
…
Zhou Xiaolan listed many of Yan Jue's good qualities for Tang Xiaomin.
She even said he was handsome, and their future children would also be good-looking, becoming more and more outrageous.
Tang Xiaomin chatted with Zhou Xiaolan until past midnight, sharing many heartfelt words.
Finally, the conversation turned to Zhang Meiyu.
"Xiaomin, your mother was deceived by your father for nearly twenty years, and she's also a pitiful person. She's always been your mother. Now her health is declining day by day, you should spend more time with her."
"Okay, I understand."
…
At 3:30 AM.
Sister Xue, disguised as a nurse, sneaked into Zhang Meiyu's hospital room.
Sister Xue had gambled that Tang Xiaomin wouldn't be staying at the hospital that night, which was why she dared to come find Zhang Meiyu.
Sister Xue locked the hospital room door from the inside.
Then, she walked to Zhang Meiyu's hospital bed and woke her up.
"Zhang Meiyu, I have something I want to say to you."
Zhang Meiyu, who had been having a nightmare, suddenly woke up to see Li Xue.
Instantly, her anger flared.
"Bitch, who let you in? Get out!"
Sister Xue smiled.
She sat on the sofa and calmly began to talk to Zhang Meiyu.
"I must say, Tang Xiaomin is really good to you. She hired dozens of security guards to guard the entire floor, making it difficult for me to come and speak with you."
Zhang Meiyu sensed that Sister Xue had gone to great lengths to find her and intended to harm her, so she reached for the call button.
Seeing this, Sister Xue quickly said, "Zhang Meiyu, I've only come to tell you some things you've never known. Do you not want to know why Tang Zhongcheng agreed to let you abandon Tang Xiaomin back then?"
At this point, Zhang Meiyu was no longer concerned about Tang Zhongcheng's past affairs.
However, she was now concerned about Tang Xiaomin.
Zhang Meiyu still wanted to hear what Li Xue had to say.
In the end, she didn't press the button.
"Say what you want to say."
Seeing that Zhang Meiyu hadn't pressed the button, Li Xue breathed a sigh of relief.
"Zhang Meiyu, do you remember why you went to Mount Xiangshan to pray for blessings in the first place?"
Sister Xue's words pulled Zhang Meiyu's thoughts back to the past.
At that time, she was pregnant with Tang Xiaomin.
The Tang Corporation was facing a crisis, and it was Tang Zhongcheng who suggested she go to Mount Xiangshan to pray for blessings.
He said that many wealthy wives went to pray for blessings to protect their family's fortunes.
At that time, Zhang Meiyu didn't think much of it and went to pray.
It was also from that time on that she believed the fortune teller who said Tang Xiaomin was an evil star reborn.
"What exactly do you want to say?"
Suddenly, Li Xue burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha... Hahahaha..."
"Zhang Meiyu, Zhang Meiyu, you're smart your whole life, but foolish in this moment."
"Wherever Tang Zhongcheng told you to go, you went. You were really obedient to him."
Something in Zhang Meiyu's mind felt like it was about to break free.
Her heart sank, and her face turned ashen.
Seeing Zhang Meiyu's expression, Sister Xue continued.
"Tang Zhongcheng deliberately sent you there. He deliberately made you consult a fortune teller, which gave you the idea to abandon Tang Xiaomin."
"Tang Zhongcheng did this to pave the way for Yiyi to be adopted by the Tang family, hahahaha..."
Zhang Meiyu's emotions became agitated. She refused to believe Li Xue.
"Li Xue, this is just your wild speculation. How could Tang Zhongcheng scheme against our own child for your child? How could he?"
Hahaha...
Li Xue's laughter became even more unrestrained.
"Even now, you still don't believe Tang Zhongcheng would do something like that, Zhang Meiyu, you're truly stupid."
"Tang Zhongcheng openly brought Yiyi into the Tang family to raise her, and he arranged for me to stay in the Tang family to live with you all these years."
"For me and Yiyi, what wouldn't he do?"
"He was willing to kneel before you for Yiyi. Even now, don't you believe Tang Zhongcheng would do such a thing? Zhang Meiyu, you've been deceived for over twenty years, and you still have hope for Tang Zhongcheng?"
"Seeing how miserably you've been deceived, I've come to tell you the truth. Believe it or not."
Zhang Meiyu clearly remembered that it was indeed Tang Zhongcheng who had told her to go to Mount Xiangshan to pray for blessings.
*Pfft...*
Zhang Meiyu coughed up a mouthful of blood, staining the sheets.
