Chapter 240 Enlightened!
"You must think I'm crazy." Mrs. Lu said with a smile.
Lu Jing was stunned, "Grandson doesn't have it!"
My grandson does have one... Lu Jing was very puzzled. Could it be that his grandmother was so cunning that she could guess what he was thinking?
Old Madam Lu didn't care. In fact, it didn't matter to her how Lu Jing viewed her.
"The Marquisate was built by your grandfather. We are indeed born in the countryside, so we care more than anyone else about everything we have worked hard for." The reason why the Marquisate of Changning is called the Marquisate of Changning is because Lu Jing's grandfather fought for it on the battlefield with his life!
They are not from those high-ranking families who have everything from birth.
Every brick and tile of the Changning Marquis Mansion was earned by their own hard work!
The Marquis is in charge of external affairs, while she is in charge of internal affairs. They have been through all the ups and downs together over the years.
Guarding the Marquis' Mansion was like guarding her own life, and no one could touch it—including Lu Jing!
"But grandma, since this matter has nothing to do with Rou'er, you should explain it clearly to prevent her from suffering an unjust accusation!" Fang Rou is still different in Lu Jing's heart.
After knowing that this matter had nothing to do with her, Lu Jing's heart began to soften again.
Lu Sinian has been killed, and even if Fang Rou pays with her life, it will not help.
So, is he going to lose his beloved one after losing his son? !
What Lu Jing cares about most is his own gains and losses.
Obviously, if Fang Rou was really held accountable, Lu Jing would be the one who would be wronged.
So, he doesn't want this to happen!
"Explain? How do you explain?" Madam Lu smiled sarcastically and looked at Lu Jing bluntly, "Explain that it wasn't her who poisoned you, but me? Ah Jing, do you want your grandmother to take the blame for your beloved woman?"
"My grandson doesn't dare!"
Lu Jing was shocked. That was not what he meant!
Even though he disagreed with Madam Lu's ideas in his heart, Lu Jing had been growing up under Madam Lu's care for so many years. Sometimes, obedience and recognition of her had become an instinct in his body.
Even if I thought about resisting, my body's habits were harder than my words.
"But..." Lu Jing wanted to plead for Fang Rou again, but he couldn't think of a good way.
He didn't dare ask his grandmother to confess for the sake of a woman.
Even if it was really done by my grandmother!
Lu Jing finally left the old lady's residence in disgrace. His lonely back looked very lonely in the night.
After he left, Shen Ruoyan immediately went to the place where Fang Rou was imprisoned.
"Lu Jing didn't come to see me."
Straight to the point, Shen Ruoyan left no room for Fang Rou's imagination. When Lu Jing went to see the old lady, she had someone pass the message to Fang Rou.
If Lu Jing succeeds in convincing Madam Lu, he will definitely come to Shen Ruoyan immediately and ask her to release Fang Rou or plead for her.
However, he went straight back to his room and had someone serve him some wine, which made his meaning very clear.
Fang Rou was abandoned.
"So what?" Fang Rou had a sarcastic smile on her face.
She had already anticipated such an outcome.
However, when she heard the news just now, she was actually shamefully nervous, which was really ridiculous!
"Shen Ruoyan, you are very proud now, right?" Fang Rou was too lazy to care about superficial efforts. Anyway, she was not much different from death now, so there was no need to be nice to the so-called mistress!
"Seeing me end up like this, are you extremely happy in your heart?" Fang Rou looked at Shen Ruoyan scrutinizingly, not missing any expression on her face.
Shen Ruoyan is the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion and Lu Jing's wife, but she is not the one he loves most.
At the beginning, it was Shen Ruoyan who cried and made a fuss about marrying Lu Jing, which prevented her from even approaching the door of the Marquis' Mansion!
Now, she must be very proud, right?
"No, I just feel sorry for you." Shen Ruoyan looked at her with pity. He didn't add insult to injury, but told her the truth: "Your beloved son betrayed you. The man you loved most abandoned you. And you didn't even dare to hate them. You could only choose to die alone..."
Shen Ruoyan looked at her quietly, as if he was a god in heaven looking at an ant on the ground, overestimating her own capabilities.
"Fang Rou, I really pity you."
"I don't want your pity!" Fang Rou was angry!
She wasn't so angry when she was betrayed by her son, but now when Shen Ruoyan looked at her like a beggar, her heart suddenly collapsed and she couldn't accept it at all!
why?
Why doesn't Shen Ruoyan feel happy at all?
Fang Rou knew that the reason why she was so calm was because she had never put herself in her heart.
Shen Ruoyan never regarded her as an opponent!
This would embarrass Fang Rou more than slapping her in the face!
"If I were you, even at the last moment of my life, I would make those who harmed me pay the price!" Shen Ruoyan's eyes sank slightly, and a powerful aura emanated from his body, which made Fang Rou stunned.
In her impression, Shen Ruoyan has always been generous and gentle.
No matter how big the problem is, she always looks so calm, as if she can always handle it calmly, which makes people trust her.
But now Shen Ruoyan's eyes revealed hatred and anger without any concealment!
Her emotions were no longer suppressed, but completely released in front of Fang Rou, allowing her to see a different side of Shen Ruoyan.
Yes, she didn't even dare to hate, so what qualifications did she have to laugh at and question Shen Ruoyan here?
At least, for the sake of her son, she could go against Madam Lu and ignore Lu Jing's feelings. As long as she could get justice for Lu Yan, Shen Ruoyan didn't even bother to play the role of a good wife and mother.
And what about her?
Lu Ankang pushed herself out to take the blame, and she didn't even dare to refute. She could only admit the crime with tears in her eyes and take the blame for her son.
Lu Jing chose to abandon her and didn't even come to see her. She could only feel sad and could do nothing.
But she is also a living person!
She will also feel pain, sadness, and even despair!
When they chose to do this, did they ever think about her? Even if it was just for a stick of incense, she was willing...
Unfortunately, none of them.
They all chose themselves, just for themselves.
Then why can't she live for herself once?
"What do you want me to do?" Fang Rou is not stupid. Shen Ruoyan is not so kind as to enlighten her here.
Since she would waste her time to come here, it proves that I am still useful to her!
Looking at her increasingly determined face, Shen Ruoyan smiled, "What do you want?"
Without desire, there is no motivation. It doesn't matter what she wants Fang Rou to do. What matters is what Fang Rou wants at this moment.
Only if you can satisfy her requirements, she will be willing to work for you!
But she never forces anyone to do anything...
