Chapter 41: Lu Siwei’s Fear

After the press conference, Lu Siwei received a call from the detention center. Her father, Lu Zhixiang, wanted to see her.

Lu Siwei didn’t say whether she would go or not, simply replying, I know. She hung up the phone.

Right after, Xiao Xuan’an called. He began to talk about the internet, saying,

Weiwei, the internet…

It’s Xiang Wanqiao, Lu Siwei interrupted, knowing what Xiao Xuan’an was about to say. She revealed the instigator of the online attacks.

Xiao Xuan’an, clearly having already guessed, said, I knew it was her. There was no one else.

Lu Siwei was upset, whispering, I just had a falling out with her. It seems she won’t let us go.

Xiao Xuan’an snorted coldly, Even if she has Gu Jingzhan and the Xiang family backing her, what kind of storm can a useless rich girl stir up?

But Gu Jingzhan… Lu Siwei felt uneasy, worried about the Lu Group falling into his hands.

Xiao Xuan’an remained calm, when the time is right, someone from Gu Jingzhan’s side will deal with him.

Lu Siwei’s heart skipped a beat. She tightened her grip on the phone, pretending to be calm and asking, Did Mr. Meng Xi contact you?

Yes, their people received news that Gu Jingzhan is arriving in Europe tomorrow.

Then…It’s still a question whether Gu Jingzhan can come back safely, so you can relax.

Though not explicit, the meaning was clear.

Lu Siwei breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, Once Gu Jingzhan dies, Xiang Wanqiao will be completely without support.

I already have a plan to deal with Xiang Wanqiao, Xiao Xuan’an said confidently, having spoken with Xiao Qigang the previous night. She’s just angry now. I’ll coax her, say a few nice words, and she’ll be devoted to me again.

He believed Xiang Wanqiao’s anger stemmed from his infidelity with her friend, and she was using Gu Jingzhan to express her anger.

Xiao Xuan’an’s words calmed Lu Siwei. She smiled evilly, the melancholy in her eyes disappearing.

Xiang Wanqiao, your good days are numbered! You are destined to be trampled under my feet and lose miserably.

After ending the call, Lu Siwei drove to the detention center.

Upon seeing her, Lu Zhixiang remained arrogant, demanding, I don’t care what method you use, get me out of here as soon as possible.

Lu Siwei sat opposite him, staring coldly, saying nothing.

After a long silence, Lu Zhixiang grew impatient. Are you deaf or dumb? Can you hear me talking to you?

He repeated his demand, Hurry up and find a way, find someone, use connections, sleep with someone, no matter the price, you must help me clear the charges and get me out of here.

Lu Siwei listened, hatred filling her heart.

Lu Zhixiang, you have committed so many crimes. Do you think you can get out of here in less than ten years? she sneered sarcastically.

Lu Zhixiang slammed the table, staring at her with wide eyes, shouting, Lu Siwei, what do you mean? You’re not going to help me clear my name and save me from here?

The auxiliary police outside heard the noise and warned, Lu Zhixiang, what are you doing? Sit down!

Lu Zhixiang, intimidated, timidly sat down.

Lu Siwei smirked, raising her eyebrows, didn’t you guess it? My good father.

She emphasized the last five words.

Lu Siwei, you really don’t plan to save me, right? Lu Zhixiang questioned through gritted teeth.

Lu Siwei sighed, it’s not that I don’t want to save you, but I can’t.

Lu Zhixiang took a deep breath, Lu Siwei, do you think you can escape if I go in?

What did I do? Everything I did was coerced by you. I had no choice.

Lu Siwei smiled, her expression and tone calm. Besides, I took the initiative to hand over all your evidence of crime, which has made great contributions.

The law has already given me leniency.

Lu Zhixiang was helpless and furious, you!

Lu Zhixiang, this is all your own fault, Lu Siwei said calmly. You have already met me. If there is nothing else, I will leave first.

She stood up.

Wait! Lu Zhixiang called out, tell me, how can you get me out?

Lu Siwei leaned over, looking down at him, Never. You will stay in prison for the rest of your life. I will ask someone to take good care of you.

Lu, Si, Wei!

Lu Zhixiang, when you tortured my mother to death, you should have thought about this day, Lu Siwei whispered in his ear. Don’t worry, my good father, I will never let you have an easy time.

Lu Zhixiang clenched his fists, trembling with anger.

Seeing his reaction, Lu Siwei felt happy. She stood up, walked around the table, and headed towards the door.

Suddenly, Lu Zhixiang said, Lu Siwei, do you think you can live well without me?

Lu Siwei paused, her eyes turning cold. She gritted her teeth, as if hypnotizing herself, I will! I can live well without you!

Lu Zhixiang laughed, then I’ll wait and see how well you can live.

Lu Siwei clenched her hands, took a deep breath, and walked out of the visiting room.

Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, her phone rang. It was that number, and fear returned.

Lu Siwei trembled, staring blankly for a few seconds before answering, pretending to be calm, Mr. Meng Xi.

Ms. Lu, the bidding meeting is over, the man hinted.

Lu Siwei swallowed, her voice tightening, I know.

The man smiled softly, I’ll wait for you.

The call ended. Lu Siwei closed her eyes, taking deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.

She will be fine! She will!
