"Dad, are you okay?"
Luo Lanzhen looked utterly incredulous, "Then why did you lie to us about being critically ill?"
Luo Song turned to Nianyang, "Nianyang girl, your thod is excellent, I am completely convinced now."
It turns out, the day Nianyang left, she gave Luo Song the Hidden Poison Pill she had concocted, which could contain the Chuanwu he had ingested at the ti.
In essence, if Luo Song later consud Chuanwu and it acted up, the toxins would be hidden within the chemical antibodies, and the manifestation of illness would be just a headache.
Luo Song’s subsequent symptoms were exactly as Nianyang had described.
"Girl, I called several clothing stores I partnered with. They said the fabric we provided in these last three months was poor and faded after a single wash.
Duan Tianhong’s actions to ruin my clothing factory are simply vile. The estate my parents passed down to has been ssed up by that scoundrel, and he even pretended that the clothing industry was tough and suggested I sell it!"
Luo Song was furious. It was all his fault for being so foolish; shrewd for a lifeti but failed to see through Duan Tianhong’s hypocrisy. And that heartless niece, who plotted to poison him for his inheritance! Thankfully, there was Nianyang; otherwise, if he were hard to death, what would beco of his daughter?
Luo Lanzhen paused, "Dad, Nianyang, what are you talking about?"
Nianyang said, "Lanzhen, do you trust ?"
"I trust you!" Lanzhen was undoubtedly confident in Nianyang’s character, but seeing Nianyang’s expression, she had a premonition of impending doom.
Sure enough, within the next second of Nianyang’s words, Luo Lanzhen felt as if the sky were falling, and tears stread down uncontrollably.
How could it be? The person she liked, her closest cousin, plotted to kill her only father for the inheritance!
This must be a dream, right?
She was simply in disbelief!
Isn’t this the kind of plot found only in novels?
"A-Zhen..."
Luo Song saw his daughter’s expression crumbling and worried she wouldn’t hold together.
Luo Lanzhen shook uncontrollably, filled with fear and disbelief, eventually embracing Nianyang and bursting into tears,
"How can they do this, why treat this way?"
Nianyang understood Luo Lanzhen’s pain and comforted her gently, "Cry, cry it out, you’ll feel better. There are bad people and good people in this world; you were just unlucky to encounter them."
Luo Lanzhen sobbed, "I really can’t accept it. My father was so good to them, why do they do such heartless things? How did we wrong them?"
Nianyang sneered coldly, "Sotis, money is the original sin; greed can utterly distort soone’s nature."
Lanzhen continued crying. Her world had always been warm and clear, unable to withstand such darkness.
"Alright, don’t be sad," Nianyang said, "Those two are just scum. Grieving over scum isn’t worth it; you should rise up."
"Right, I need to rise up. I’ll make them pay blood debts!"
Luo Lanzhen clenched her fists, an alarming red in her eyes, she spoke viciously, wishing she could rip Duan Tianhong and Bai Jing’s hearts apart right now!
She had always thought Duan Tianhong cherished her, and her cousin treated her well, never imagining they could be so deceitful and malevolent, absolute ingrates!

(Yes, we’re up against it in the PK again, needing lots of ticket support, because last ti we bowed out in the second round, but there’s a chance to salvage this, so I’m pushing to PK one last ti. It’s really embarrassing.)
