694 No One Can Change My Mind

Mrs. Lin got more and more upset as she spoke. She asked Lu Shaoyang, “Are you going to abandon your parents for that woman, Shen Hanxing?”

Lu Nuannuan was injured and fell into the sea yesterday. She had an anti-inflammatory injection when she returned and had a fever in the middle of the night. Mrs. Lu had been taking care of her for most of the night and was already mentally and physically exhausted. Seeing Lu Shaoyang’s stubborn face now, she felt extremely sad. Their family was originally so good. They were harmonious, beautiful, and their children were filial. It was all that vixen Shen Hanxing’s fault for causing such a ruckus at home.

“Mom, don’t say that.” Lu Nuannuan, who was sitting beside Mrs. Lu, felt a little uneasy. She let go of Mrs. Lu’s hand subconsciously, and her face looked a little unnatural. She had not slept much last night and had been having dreams repeatedly. In her dream, Shen Hanxing had broken out of the water under the transparent sunlight. Her black hair was stuck to her skin, and her face was stained with glistening water droplets. She was beautiful, reliable, and powerful. Her eyes were cold and indifferent, but the corners of her lips curled up with confidence. The huge waves in her dream all disappeared without a trace after Shen Hanxing appeared. All that was left in her dream was her clear black and white eyes and that distant smile.

Lu Nuannuan lowered her eyes, her cheeks burning. She bit her lip and said, “Yesterday’s matter really had nothing to do with Mrs. Ji. It was me, I accidentally…”

“Nuannuan, what’s wrong with you?” Mrs. Lu turned pale with fright. Recalling Lu Nuannuan’s behaviour yesterday, she felt as if the sky had collapsed as she pulled Lu Nuannuan and said anxiously, “Nuannuan, you used to hate Shen Hanxing very much. I haven’t asked you yet, why did you speak up for Shen Hanxing yesterday?” Mrs. Lu’s heart was racing, and she had a feeling that something unacceptable had happened. She couldn’t help but grab Lu Nuannuan’s wrist and stare at her. “Don’t tell me that you’ve been seduced by that vixen, Shen Hanxing?”

“Mom, don’t make it sound so bad.” Lu Nuannuan’s expression became even more uncomfortable. She couldn’t help but push Mrs. Lu’s hand away and said in a low voice, “I was telling the truth yesterday. I don’t like Shen Hanxing, but I can’t frame her. What kind of person would I be if I did that?” As she spoke, Lu Nuannuan seemed to have convinced herself. She raised her voice and said in a self-righteous tone, “Besides, Shen Hanxing saved me yesterday. I’m not the kind of person who doesn’t know how to repay a favor. Mother, do you want me to be an ungrateful person?”

“You child, what nonsense are you spouting?” Even though she felt that Shen Hanxing was not worthy of Lu Nuannuan’s grat.i.tude, Mrs. Lu could not refute Lu Nuannuan’s words. She sighed softly and wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. “If it wasn’t for Shen Hanxing, our family wouldn’t have ended up like this. If you’re on Shen Hanxing’s side, you’ll be hurting your mother’s feelings.”

Lu Nuannuan’s face turned pale.

“Alright, no need to shade me like that.” Lu Shaoyang became even more impatient. He said coldly, “Aren’t you guys just looking down on her family background? She was born in the slums, but so what? Her excellence was enough to cover up her own shortcomings! You want me to marry Su Ling. I’ve already married her and even had a child with her. Isn’t that enough? What else do you want from me?” His eyes were filled with sorrow and sadness as he said dispiritedly, “You can control my body, but do you also want to control my heart? I love Shen Hanxing, and I’ll only love her for the rest of my life. Nothing can change that!”

“Bang!” Without waiting for the Lu family to react, the sound of gla.s.s falling to the ground suddenly came from the stairs. Looking towards the source of the sound, he saw Su Ling wearing a loose home dress, standing there with a pale face. There was a broken cup at her feet. She didn’t know how much she had heard, but her eyes were frighteningly red, as if she was a little lost. With tears in her eyes, she choked out a cry, “Shaoyang…”

Lu Shaoyang was taken aback. He stood frozen on the spot and turned his head away guiltily. He had just married Su Ling, and now he was saying that he would only love Shen Hanxing. He felt that he was in the wrong, so he looked embarra.s.sed. But he still said, “Su Ling, I know you wouldn’t like to hear this, but before you married me, you already knew what I was thinking, didn’t you? Don’t worry, you’re my wife now and I’ll treat you well. But I can’t control my heart, so I hope you won’t force it.” After saying that, he grabbed his coat that was thrown on the sofa and walked out. “I have an appointment, so I’ll go out first. Don’t wait for me for lunch.”
