Chapter 1128: Chapter 1129: Lu Zhendong is too ruthless, too ruthless Chapter 1128: Chapter 1129: Lu Zhendong is too ruthless, too ruthless Lin Chaofeng and his son left Kyoto with Lin Qiang’s ashes to return to the United States.

At this time, Lu Hongxuan finally saw Lin Xiao.

From his son’s words, he learned that his brother Lin Qiang had been sentenced to death and his sister-in-law and nephew harbored resentment toward his son, leaving him behind as they went to the United States.

“Lu Zhendong is so ruthless, so ruthless,” Lin Xiao said, laughing until tears streamed down her face.

She had never expected that her brother would leave this world like this.

The brother who had cherished her was gone.

Haha, haha.

Lin Xiao laughed before coughing up blood. No matter the torture she faced, she had held firm because of her brother, but now her brother had lost his life for her.

“Mom, are you all right?”

Lin Xiao wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and forced herself to speak firmly, “I’m fine.”

Lu Hongxuan was still worried, but separated by the glass, he asked, “Mom, are you really okay?”

“What exactly happened to you that day?”

Since the incident with his mother, he hadn’t seen her.

Lin Xiao told Lu Hongxuan about the events of that day.

Upon hearing the story, Lu Hongxuan was shocked, never imagining that his father could be so cruel as to frame his mother.

“The thing with Uncle, did Lu Zhendong do that too?”

Lin Xiao scoffed coldly, “It’s been ten years. Lu Zhendong has become smarter. It must have been Lu Zhendong, it must have been.”

“Xiaoxuan, you are no match for Lu Zhendong. You should leave Kyoto and go to Magic City. Find a job there because you won’t be able to return to the United States. Your aunt and cousin let you off once, but that doesn’t mean they will a second time. Your mom still has some private savings; come here, and I’ll talk to you about it.”

Lu Hongxuan leaned in to listen as Lin Xiao spoke through the glass.

“Xiaoxuan, if you find Menmen, reconcile with her. Mom is serving a twenty-year sentence, and who knows if I’ll even live to leave this prison,” Lin Xiao said resignedly.

Lu Zhendong was too cruel, far too cruel.

Indeed, she had underestimated Lu Zhendong; they say the quiet dogs bite the hardest.

“Mom…”

Lin Xiao managed a smile, “Xiaoxuan, I was too stubborn. Menmen is a good girl. Don’t think about revenge for me; you are no match for Lu Zhendong. I’ve accepted my fate.”

The mother and son had more to say, but time was up.

Lu Hongxuan watched helplessly as his mother was taken away.

In such a short time, his mother had aged as if by decades.

Could this all really be the work of Lu Zhendong?

His mother, at the very least, had been his wife, caring for their children and their home. Why did he have to treat her like this, why?

He even took his uncle’s life.

Lu Hongxuan couldn’t accept this belated truth.

He stumbled out of the prison.

Somehow, he had made his way to the courthouse and stood there, staring at the entrance.

With a sorrowful glance inside.

Reconciliation with Menmen.

But it was too late, wasn’t it?

Was he too weak, too immature?

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have ended like this.

“Menmen, that’s Lu Hongxuan,” Liu Zihan pointed out Zhang Menmen. A few days earlier, she had told Menmen about the fate of Lin Xiao and Lin Qiang, and she had noticed something off in Menmen’s expression.

Matters of the heart can be so hard to define.

Zhang Menmen looked outside, yet she didn’t step toward it.

Lu Hongxuan saw Zhang Menmen emerge and his eyes momentarily brightened, only to dim again.

He had come today to say goodbye.
