Chapter 317: Chapter 315: Just You?
Lu Zhaozhao responded as if it was unintentional.
Pei Huai naturally chimed in, "Because she’s the Lu family’s precious daughter, after all, she’s their flesh and blood."
Xia Wenjin originally just wanted to show off the cubilose, to let Lu Zhaozhao know that Xiao Jinglan only cared about her, and treated her differently.
It didn’t matter to her whether Lu Zhaozhao cared or not.
Even if Lu Zhaozhao caused trouble for Xiao Jinglan, that was fine.
But she hadn’t expected Xia Wenyan to seize the chance to mock her, nor had she imagined that Lu Zhaozhao’s words would make her feel uneasy.
Cubilose is poisoned?
She had never thought that before.
She didn’t want to marry Xiao Mo, but after all, she was the Lu family’s precious daughter, and Xiao Mo was just an outsider to the Song family.
His marrying her was definitely marrying up.
She knew that Xiao Mo and his people still needed to use her reputation to secure a foothold in the Song family, so she was fearless.
Even if she was caught in bed with Justin, she was still arrogant.
But she had never considered that Xiao Jinglan might poison her cubilose.
Xia Wenjin looked at the cubilose in front of her and suddenly lost all appetite.
She knew the likelihood of Xiao Jinglan poisoning her was not high, but... what if?
Xia Wenjin stood up abruptly, giving Lu Zhaozhao and Xia Wenyan a disdainful glance, "In front of all of you, I really have no appetite."
Having said this, she turned to her assistant, "Take my things to my resting room."
As she spoke, she left.
Lu Zhaozhao knew that Xia Wenjin was deeply troubled and didn’t need her to say much; just a hint of suspicion would be enough to make her trace things back to their source.
Not to mention that she already harbored a grudge against Xiao Jinglan.
How could she not become suspicious?
Xia Wenjin didn’t have many connections, and since she couldn’t let Xiao Jinglan find out about testing the cubilose, she had no choice but to ask her assistant to take care of it.
She repeatedly cautioned the assistant that no one should discover this, threatening to hold her responsible should it get out, before feeling reassured. She had her pretend to go shopping while sending the items for testing.
Unfortunately, what Xia Wenjin didn’t know was that as soon as her assistant left, they handed over the items to An Ying, a subordinate of Pei Huai...
Because of the cubilose incident, Xia Wenjin couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off, so after attending "Eat, Cabin!" that night, she headed straight back to her villa.
As soon as she entered, she saw Xiao Mo.
Her eyebrows furrowed, intending to avoid him, but the man charged straight towards her.
Before she could react, he slapped her across the face.
Xia Wenjin was completely stunned.
She glared furiously at Xiao Mo, "Have you gone mad?! Why did you hit me?!"
"Why my brother hit you, do you really not understand in your heart?" Suddenly, a familiar mocking voice came from the side.
Xia Wenjin then saw clearly that the one speaking was Song Keren.
Seeing the smug look in her eyes, Xia Wenjin understood almost instantly.
Song Keren had told Xiao Mo about her affair with Justin.
Otherwise, this man wouldn’t have gone crazy.
But right now, she clenched her teeth and decided not to admit anything.
She, covering her swollen face, glared at the two, "Why should I understand? Just because both of you are sick?"
Song Keren’s eyes instantly widened, and she kicked toward Xia Wenjin’s stomach.
"Ugh! Xia Wenjin, you slut! You seduced my husband and went to a hotel to sleep with him, do you think this matter is over?!"
She sneered at Xia Wenjin, "I’ll tell you, I was worried that your divorce would affect my brother and Lu Family’s relationship, but now...ha! Lu Family is finished!"
In the afternoon, core members of Lu Group anonymously exposed that Lu Group’s financial chain had broken and all their mining veins were worthless.
The news exploded all over the news rankings.
Then, other well-informed individuals also followed suit to twist the knife.
Companies that had been offended by Lu Family when they boasted about striking the veins also took the opportunity to kick them while they were down.
Companies involved with Lu Group were distancing themselves left and right.
It could be said that the more glorious Lu Group had been before, the more miserable they were now.
Song Keren thought of Xia Wenjin’s previously arrogant demeanor and knew that Mr. and Mrs. Lu were no good either.
Xiao Jinglan had previously refrained from making a scene with Song Keren because Xia Wenjin was the precious daughter of the Lu Family and if they tangled, Justin might divorce Song Keren to marry Xia Wenjin because of her status.
But now that the Lu Family was ruined, Xia Wenjin’s status wasn’t even as good as Song Keren’s.
So she naturally had nothing to worry about and of course, she harbored vengeance for Xia Wenjin.
Xia Wenjin, hearing Song Keren’s words, was clearly stunned, "What did you say? What’s finished?"
She had only been out for an afternoon, so how could the Lu Group be finished?
Xia Wenjin was about to use her phone to ask Cao Mei, but in the next second, her hair was grabbed tightly by Xiao Mo, who dragged her upstairs.
Xia Wenjin, in pain, tried to scratch at Xiao Mo, but then his slap landed on her face again.
He hit her very hard, nearly knocking her out with a slap.
Xia Wenjin gritted her teeth and thought of Xiao Mo’s perverted preferences, fearing what he might do next, "What are you going to do to me?! Be careful, I’ll call the police! In the end, we’ll both go down together!"
Xiao Mo, hearing Xia Wenjin’s words, kicked her aside again, and Xia Wenjin curled up in pain.
Looking at Xiao Mo’s bloodthirsty eyes, she felt like she was about to die in the next second.
Xiao Mo’s eyes, already filled with anger, stared at her as if bloodshot.
Remembering that Song Keren told him Xia Wenjin had cuckolded him, he wanted nothing more than to kill her.
He indeed didn’t like Xia Wenjin, but that didn’t mean he enjoyed being cuckolded!
Xiao Mo stepped closer to Xia Wenjin and grabbed her hair tightly, pulling her head down forcefully so she had to look up, "You still have the face to threaten me? You wretch, if you dare to utter a word, I’ll get someone to release all those photos and videos of you, and then we’ll see how you’ll live!"
The bankruptcy of Lu Group was earth-shattering for Xia Wenjin.
Her image as a wealthy heiress was destroyed with the sex photo scandal, and she was finished in the Shangjing Circle.
Xia Wenjin didn’t want to end up in ruin.
She hastily reached out to grab Xiao Mo, pleading, "Xiao Mo, I was wrong, please be magnanimous and forgive me, I’ll never dare again, my... my contact with Justin was just to deal with Lu Zhaozhao..."
She was desperately trying to find a way out, seeking Xiao Mo’s mercy.
Xiao Mo sneered looking at Xia Wenjin, "You think you’re fit to deal with Lu Zhaozhao?"
Such a dazzling woman would belong to him after getting rid of Song Sinian; he couldn’t allow any mishaps!
But seeing Xia Wenjin in her current state, Xiao Mo suddenly had an interesting idea...
