nHe had always felt that Lu Manman would only belong to him, even though he had never looked forward to it. He had experiences with all sorts of women, and the last thing he was interested in was someone like Lu Manman. She might seem like a sweet and innocent girl, but she was actually boring.

nBut someone else had slept with her.

nHe felt a bubble of anger rise in him, but he could not vent it!

nHe had no idea why he cared so much! Or perhaps he had never liked it when his things were being used by others!

nHe was used to people not getting what he could not obtain either. He would rather ruin it than let anyone else have it!

nHe narrowed her eyes.

nHe picked up his cell phone and made a call. “Uncle Lu.”

n“Wen Yun.”

n“Get ready tomorrow.”

n“Don’t worry. We did all of that just to frame Lu Zishan and Lu Manman. I will make sure that they have scandals for a long time and can never clear their names. Let’s continue with our plan!” Lu Zishan said as he smiled deviously.

n“Mm-hm,” Wen Yun answered.

nHe hung up.

nLu Manman, do you remember what I said before? Someday, I will make you beg me on your knees!

nBut tomorrow, you will know what I’m capable of. I’m someone that you and Mo Yuanxiu can never compete with!

n…

nLu Manman returned to the Lu family’s villa.

nLu Zishan and He Xiuwen were having tea on the balcony.

nEver since He Xiuwen got married to Lu Zishan, she had given up her high education so that she could take care of her husband and child at home. When she was young, she used to think that her parents were the most blissful couple on earth. They treated each other well and never quarreled. From their words, one could see the trust and love they had for each other.

nLu Manman smiled and did not disturb them. She turned around and headed to the second floor.

nIn your lifetime, who would accompany you the most?

nYour partner.

nAs she had yearned for a marriage like her parents’ when she was young, she had harbored high hopes for love. After she met Wen Yun, she had given everything she had just so that they could spend the rest of their lives together.

nShe entered the bathroom and took a shower.

nLaying in the bathtub, she looked at the beautiful mirror above her that reflected her pale face.

nThis life, she really had to start all over again!

n…

nThe day went by very quickly.

nThe following morning.

nHer father was taken to court in advance.

nLu Manman and Wu Jun arrived shortly after.

nThey got ready in the waiting room.

nWu Jun took out the documents in his hands and said to Lu Manman, “I’ve been working overtime over the past two days to sort out your father’s case. According to our country’s penal code, if your father’s criminal record is valid, he will be sentenced to three to five years in jail. I can only try to shorten it to two and a half years so that there’s hope.”

n“Thank you for the trouble, Lawyer Wu.” Lu Manman was very grateful.

n“Don’t mention it,” Wu Jun said with some regret. “It’s a pity that Mr. Lu was framed, and there’s no evidence to prove it.”

nLu Manman forced a smile. “We’ll leave it to fate then. This is how society works.”

nWu Jun nodded helplessly as if he could not find the words to comfort her.

n“I won’t hold you up from your preparations for the trial. I’ll be leaving first and will be waiting in the audience seats.”

n“Yes.”

nLu Manman walked out and sat in the audience.

nThere were not many people around.

nThere were only a few people around her, and she knew some of them.

nShe had arrived early, and the reporters were not at the entrance yet.
