Mr. Song, you have crossed the line.

The reason the two had been holding out without making a move was because they had already offended Lu Peichuan. If they were to betray Su Qingya, they would surely be doomed. But now that Su Yichen said he wouldn't protect them, they panicked instantly.

"Third Master, it was Miss who made us do it, please save us."

"Yes, Third Master, we all act according to Miss's orders."

Su Yichen is known as Third Master in the underworld.

The moment Su Qingya heard Su Yichen say he wouldn't protect them, she knew the truth couldn't be hidden anymore. A faint self-deprecating smile appeared on her lips. Su Yichen was a master at undermining her; he was truly her good older brother.

Su Yichen ignored the mockery in Su Qingya's eyes, only looking at her with heartache, "Who let you get involved in this kind of thing?"

This house is dirty enough with just him. He thought she was just a little spoiled and willful in her feelings, but he never expected her to do something as outrageous as kidnapping.

Su Qingya sneered, her eyes filled with resentment. "If I don't get involved, will you help me?"

Su Yichen pressed his thin lips into a straight line and silently looked at Su Qingya.

Su Qingya laughed again, but tears welled up in her eyes. "If you can't, what's wrong with me doing it myself?"

After saying that, she looked at Lu Peichuan, who was glaring at her angrily, and said, "You don't need to look at me like that. It's all your fault. If you love Rong Zheng, why did you go abroad to find me? You provoked me and then didn't take responsibility. You're already divorced, but you still don't want me. Since you care about her so much, then I'll destroy her!"

Her expression was contorted, and her eyes held a desperate madness born from the deception that had been exposed.

Eager to know Rong Zheng's fate, she looked at the two men on the ground and asked, "Did you ruin her? Did you film it? Give it to me now, I want to upload those videos online and ruin that bitch's reputation!"

"Mr. Lu, we really didn't touch her. Please, Mr. Lu, let us go."

"Third Master, Brother Yong is telling the truth. We really didn't touch the person. Please, please save us."

The two men, filled with fear and trepidation, begged Lu Peichuan and Su Yichen for mercy.

Upon hearing the result, Su Qingya roared angrily, "Useless! You two are useless!" Thinking that she had been defiled by the filthy beggar while Rong Zheng was still clean, Su Qingya was consumed by rage and a mouthful of blood rushed to her throat, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood.

A flicker of panic crossed Su Yichen's eyes. He quickly steadied the swaying Su Qingya and instructed the butler beside him, "Call the family doctor immediately!"

Su Qingya leaned against Su Yichen's chest, her white teeth stained red with blood.

She hates!

She is not reconciled!

She planned everything, and Rong Zheng was unharmed, yet she ended up in this state.

Suddenly she remembered Bai Yuxiu's accusations. Since Bai Yuxiu was having a hard time, she shouldn't try to extricate herself from this matter either.

She forced herself to stay awake and looked at Lu Peichuan, "It was your mother who wanted to ruin Rong Zheng. She asked me for help, and I was just an accomplice. If you want an explanation, you should go to your mother!"

Lu Peichuan's eyes widened slightly, and he instinctively retorted, "Impossible!"

Su Qingya wanted to say something, but the taste of blood in her mouth grew stronger and stronger, and her vision began to blur. Soon she fainted.

Lu Peichuan looked at Su Yichen, "These two are yours to deal with. This matter won't just end like this." After saying that, he turned and left quickly. As he walked out of the villa, he instructed Xue Bai, who was beside him, "Investigate immediately to see if my mother was involved in this."

Xue Bai: "Okay."

Lu Peichuan drove at high speed to the Lu family's old residence. Upon entering the villa, he found Lu Yunshan already asleep.

When the nanny saw Lu Peichuan arrive so late at night, she immediately went to greet him, "Young Master, what brings you here so late?"

Where is my mom?

"I don't know what's wrong with Madam. She came home in the evening in a daze and kept crying while holding old photos of Master."

Lu Peichuan hurried upstairs to Bai Yuxiu's room and saw her sitting on the floor with her back against the bed, holding a photo of her father in her hand, her eyes red and swollen as she stared blankly into space.

He walked up to her, frowned, and asked, "What are you doing sitting on the floor?"

Bai Yuxiu snapped out of her thoughts, looked up and saw Lu Peichuan. Her eyes, which had finally dried, instantly filled with tears.

She called softly, "Son."

Lu Peichuan had never seen Bai Yuxiu like this before. She looked aggrieved, dependent, and heartbroken, as if she had something she wanted to say to him but couldn't bring herself to say it. She just looked at him and ultimately said nothing.

"What happened?"

Upon hearing Lu Peichuan's question, Bai Yuxiu thought about how she had been humiliated by a beggar, and how, at over fifty years old, she had ruined her reputation. Tears streamed down her face.

She covered her face with her hands and burst into tears.

Before Lu Peichuan could say anything more, his phone rang. It was Xue Bai calling. "Mr. Lu, Madam and Miss Su met at the tea house last night. The waiter said he vaguely heard them discussing who to kidnap and who to ruin."

"Understood." Lu Peichuan hung up the phone, his gaze turning cold as he looked at Bai Yuxiu, who was sitting on the ground, sobbing with her face covered. "Did you and Su Qingya kidnap Rong Zheng together?"

Bai Yuxiu's crying suddenly stopped.

Knowing Bai Yuxiu as he did, Lu Peichuan knew she would have immediately denied it if she hadn't done it, but she didn't. "Why? You know I want to remarry her, why did you treat her like this?"

Bai Yuxiu removed her hand from her face, her face streaked with tears, and looked at her son who was angrily questioning her. "If it weren't for her, you wouldn't have distanced yourself from me, my status in the Lu family wouldn't have plummeted, and I wouldn't have risked cooperating with Su Qingya to kidnap her, leaving me in this state..."

She paused, a surge of overwhelming hatred welling up in her eyes. "It's all her fault! It's all her fault! She ruined me! I wish I could tear her to pieces!"

Lu Peichuan felt sorry for her when he saw her crying so sadly, but after hearing her words, he felt that there must be something hateful about a pitiful person.

If Rong Zheng finds out that the people who kidnapped her and almost caused her to lose her innocence were Bai Yuxiu and Su Qingya, I'm afraid their remarriage will be hopeless.

At this moment, he even felt a pang of hatred towards Bai Yuxiu, hating her for destroying all his hopes. "How could I have a mother like you?"

Bai Yuxiu's pupils dilated sharply. "What did you say?"

Lu Peichuan didn't want to say another word to her. He just gave her a deep look, a look filled with endless disappointment and a faint disgust. Then he turned and walked away quickly, leaving her with a cold and indifferent back view.

hospital.

After finishing his business, Song Shiyan arrived at the ward and found Rong Zheng's bed empty. He quickly went to the nurses' station and asked, "Where is the patient in room 12?"

He called Luo Qinghe hoping that she could take good care of Rong Zheng while he was away, but why are neither of them here now?

Where could they go so late at night?
