“Mom, suppose that Yan Huan goes crazy and kills Lu Yi. Will grandpa still accept her as his granddaughter-in-law?”

“You want Lu Yi dead?”

“Mom, don’t you want it, too? It’s enough to have one heir, me, for the Lu Family. Lu Shuyun oppressed you almost all your life, and her son me growing up. It’s either him or me in this world.””Mom, don’t worry. I have already done the planning. Only a fool would waste such a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. After taking care of these two problems we would finally be able to sleep sound at night.”

The conversation between the mother and son fitfully passed through and rang in Yan Huan’s ears.                                                                                 She had always known that Lu Qin and the rest of the Lu Family loathed each other, but it had never occurred to her that he would be capable of such brutality. They wanted to kill Lu Yi and use her as a scapegoat.

How could she be so blind and fall in love with such a wolf in sheep’s clothing? Cold-blooded was not even close a word to describe him.

He was not a human. He’s an animal, a devil.

That night, there seemed to be a red moon in the sky, hell-like bloody moonlight cutting through the darkness. The house was uniquely quiet, and she knew why­­-Lu Qin had sent everyone else out by means of various excuses to make way for his killing plan.

Yan Huan came around the corner. Sweat stood out on her forehead as she covered her belly with a hand covered with visible blood.

Thanks to the stunts she did while she was an actress, she climbed across the stairs and, steeling her heart, jumped down. The second she landed on the floor, she shrank her body and tumbled forward as a buffer. The series of movements resulted in a pang in her abdomen so severe that she almost gasped. At this moment footsteps of someone going downstairs sounded, so she stood up from the floor. Feeling something hot and wet in her hand, she looked down and saw her hand covered in blood.

Her eyelashes fluttered, and then she ran forward.

She tapped on the door lightly. Luckily, it was not locked.

She gasped on the pain from her belly when she took a step forward.

“Lu Yi,” Yan Huan covered the wound on her belly with one hand while shaking the man with the other.

“Lu Yi…” she kept shaking but there was no sign that he would awaken. At this time, the door creaked, and she even heard the voice of Lu Qin.

“The door was locked.”

Soon afterwards there were sounds from the door again. It sounded like they were trying to open it.
