18 At That Moment, Both of Their Faces Were the Same. (1/2)
Eventually, when Lu Man's had mother died of anger from Lu Qi, Tang Zi dared not tell Lu Man at all. He was afraid that she would not be able to deal with it while in jail.
However, on the day of her release, Tang Zi was on a work trip and could not go fetch her.
But he immediately came to see her once he was back. When he go to know that he could not hide the news from her any longer, he burst into tears and cried his heart out, blaming himself for not taking better care of her mother.
Thankfully, she could still redo everything now.
So in this life, she would not have any regrets.

Currently, as Lu Man returned to the Lu family house she stopped before entering and stared at the cold, hard door.
Back then, when she had found out that Lu Qi had caused her mother to die of anger, she had come back here to seek an explanation from Lu Qi, only to get thrown out by Lu Qiyuan. That memory was still vivid in her mind.
Taking a deep breath, she walked through the front door.
”Young Mistress,” Madam Chen called upon seeing her.
At least she still had some manners, but she was more affable and respectful towards Lu Qi.
Nonetheless, Lu Man did not respond and glanced towards the living room.
Madam Chen muttered to herself. What is wrong with Lu Man today?
While she had never been particularly friendly with Lu Man, Lu Man would at least treat her with some respect.
However, once she recalled why Lu Qiyuan had got Lu Man to return, she pursed her lips.
Who did not know about Lu Man's awkward position in this household?
Lu Man's place in the Lu family was perhaps even beneath hers? Who is she to act all high and mighty now?
Anyway, Lu Man couldn't care less about what Madam Chen was thinking about. Upon entering the living room, she saw Lu Qiyuan's sullen face.
Even Lu Qi and He Zhengbai were both present there with Xia Qingyang comforting Lu Qi.
Lu Man raised her eyebrows and asked surprisingly, ”You're back from the police station so soon?”
